New Freedom / You Really Are a Genius. Hmm... Quite the Business Mind

They were living records of this world's history. If someone could master the language of beasts and speak with these living fossils, that person would surely be the greatest historian in the world.

Unfortunately, to speak with these giants, you first had to find them.

And given how well they hid, few humans could.

Even if you found them, without the ability to hear the Voice of All Things, it wouldn't do you a damn bit of good.

So learning the truth of the world from them was nothing but a pipe dream.

You'd have an easier time finding Laugh Tale.

Chapter 151: New Freedom

Five days later.

Carter Island.

Carter Shipbuilding Company, Dock 2.

As everyone gazed at the massive vessel before them, excitement filled their eyes.

Who didn't love something new?

Especially something they'd helped design and furnish with their own hands.

This magnificent ship would be their home from now on, their home as they sailed the boundless sea.

Kuta tore his gaze away and turned to Doto. The man was bare-chested, with two enormous dark circles under his eyes from lack of sleep. Kuta smiled. "Thank you for all your hard work, Mr. Doto, and the rest of the shipwrights."

"It was nothing, really."

Doto looked up at the result of five sleepless days of work at their shipyard, and a deep sense of satisfaction rose in his heart.

To build a ship like this with his own hands—

To see it cut through the waves and make its name across the world with the Silver Hair Crew—

It was an honor for him and all the employees of Carter Shipbuilding Company.

Doto waved a hand, then turned and bowed to Kuta.

"Mr. Doto, what are you..."

Kuta was taken aback by the gesture.

"Haha!"
