"Is this really a battleship from Dock One?!"
Iceberg stood at the window on the second floor of the office, staring at the huge black metal ship on the pier with wide eyes, and his whole person fell into a sluggish state.
If he hadn't secretly met Franky a few days ago, he would have even thought that this brother had secretly handed over the design drawings left by his teacher to others behind his back.
But after careful observation, he realized that "Endless Abyss" was not Extremely Evil Warship Pluton.
On the contrary, this ship is much scarier than Dark King.
In particular, the two main guns, which have completely different structures, do not look like devices used to launch solid iron balls. Instead, they use a technology that has never been seen before, but is extremely advanced.
"Damn it! That guy really hurt me this time." Iceberg cursed through gritted teeth.
Because he knows better than anyone else that World Government has never given up on taking the Pluton Blueprint left by teacher Tom from him.
But now, the emergence of a super battleship that is very similar to the legendary Ancient Weapon Pluton will undoubtedly give those who are originally evil-minded a perfect excuse to take action.
"Boss, what should we do now? If World Government knows about this, he will definitely come to us and cause trouble."
Barry obviously does not understand the seriousness of the situation, but simply believes that World Government will impose some severe punishment on the company because of the concession shipyard.
"You stay here and guard! I have to go to the dock."
Iceberg didn't have time to think too much, and rushed out of the office after throwing these words away.
He must immediately find Allen to find out what happened to this battleship, and at the same time send Franky away before World Government could react.
At the same time, Franky also saw the giant steel ship docked at the dock, with his mouth wide open in disbelief.
"Oh my god! This ship... this ship is simply the ultimate romance of all shipbuilders! Look at that streamlined hull! And the indestructible metal hull and armor! Plus those two thick and long main guns! It's great! It's simply great!"
No hesitation!
This pervert, who had been running around wearing only a pair of swimming shorts all day, immediately opened his legs and rushed to the pier in one breath. He squeezed his way to the front of the crowd of spectators and was so intoxicated that he admired the industrial work of art in front of him.
That's right!
In Franky's eyes, "Endless Abyss" is the ship he dreams of building.
Just when he was about to board the ship to take a closer look, he suddenly felt a hand on his shoulder. When he looked back, he found that it was Iceberg who was panting.
The latter didn't even care about his lungs that were about to burst after strenuous exercise. He forcibly pulled Franky away from the crowd to a relatively secluded place, and asked directly, "Tell me, were you involved in that ship?"
"Are you suspecting that I leaked Pluton Blueprint?"
Franky knew the meaning of the other party's words as soon as he heard it, with an extremely angry expression on his face.
"No! I just want to know if you used something from Pluton Blueprint on that steel battleship." Iceberg explained with a wry smile.
"No! I didn't even know that Dock One was actually building such a work of art. If I knew, I might not be able to help but participate in it."
When saying these words, Franky's eyes never left "Endless Abyss", and he did not even conceal his strong curiosity and desire.
"In other words, that man built a super battleship comparable to Dark King in less than a month without any outside help?" Iceberg was stunned and couldn't believe such a fact.
After all, Water 7 is the most developed place in the world for its shipbuilding industry. Its accumulation of technology and highly skilled shipbuilders are simply not comparable to other places.
He himself had integrated seven shipyards, so that World Government had to cooperate with him and became the Navy's ship construction and maintenance base, so that those CP agents did not dare to act rashly, and finally saved Pluton Blueprint.
"Don't jump to conclusions yet." Franky shook his head noncommittally. "Whether it is a super battleship or not, we must first test the speed and performance of the ship, especially the power of the two main guns. Unless they can also achieve the power of destroying an island with one shot, strength alone is not enough."
"Test? Are you kidding? She is now docked at the dock of Water 7, which already makes me anxious. It is foreseeable that when World Government gets the news, they will definitely send people to investigate, and Pluton Blueprint will be exposed by then. So you must leave immediately to ensure the safety of Pluton Blueprint." Iceberg warned in a stern tone.
"Leave? What should I do with my brothers and sisters?" Franky frowned and asked loudly.
Iceberg replied without thinking, "You don't have to worry about this, I will take good care of them. The only thing you need to do now is to disappear immediately, disappear from under the nose of World Government."
"Can I get on that ship?" Franky asked in an uncertain tone.
"No! That man is too dangerous! Maybe he will face encirclement and suppression from World Government and navy elites next. I don't want you to be involved in danger. I have found a ship for you to go to Alabasta. You should set off immediately to hide in this big country located in the first half of Grand Line for a while."
After that, Iceberg forcibly put Franky on an inconspicuous small merchant ship and watched it sail away from the port and gradually disappear at the end of the horizon.
On the other side, Allen obviously didn't know how much trouble the "Endless Abyss" he personally built by Teuchi had caused to the brothers Iceberg and Franky. He was buying a variety of grains, cured meats, bacon, condiments, wine, tableware, clothing and other supplies necessary for long-term navigation in the market.
As for the original small sailboat, after emptying all belongings, it disintegrated and sank into the sea.
He didn't want to reveal the secret of the modified interior of the ship.
When a large amount of materials were gradually transported into the refrigerated warehouse, "Endless Abyss" finally sounded the whistle of the industrial era, and under the watch of countless people, it rode the wind and waves at extremely fast speed and embarked on the journey to New World.
The navy branch stationed here also reported the news and several photos to Marine Headquarters.
Suddenly, Demon Pirates, which had been silent for some time, once again appeared on the front page of the newspaper.
"Endless Abyss" has become the focus of debate among senior navy officials.
No one knows how powerful this steel battleship is, let alone what impact it will have on the world.
The only thing that is certain is that in terms of speed, it is faster than all large naval battleships, so fast that even interception is of no use.
