Chapter 557 Two Old Men Debate
"Wow, hahahaha! Xie Wen, your ship is much better than the ones the navy has equipped recently!"
When everyone was preparing to leave Fishman Island and head to the sea, the two old men, Garp and Sengoku, did not take their own warships, but shamelessly ran to their Toto Advance.
"It can actually be transformed into a submarine, and our warships can only be transformed into spaceships."
Xie Wen glanced at Garp and said lightly: "If the original blueprints stolen by CP from the Seven Water Capital, there must be a part of the sea dragon form."
"Hahaha! Is that so? Then I'm not sure."
Garp touched the back of his head, and laughed as if he didn't hear Xie Wen's sarcasm at all.
Meowerya came over after hearing them discussing the Toot, and speculated: "It's not that the Navy doesn't want to make it, but they don't have a stable energy source to support the hull's multiple transformations. I also have enough confidence to design the current Toot because of the existence of Klee and Charmi, meow! Check-it!"
(ゝω)~☆
"Another reason is that it's not cost-effective for the Navy and the World Government to do so, meow."
Meowerya continued: "There is no need to use multiple forms for mass-produced warships. If it were me, I would choose to make different transformation directions separately, and then divide them into different formations. Warships with multiple forms are more suitable for special forces, such as CP agents, meow~Check-it!"
(ゝω)~☆
Although Zhan Guo had tried hard to suppress his surprise, Xie Wen still caught the fleeting expression on his face.
It seems that Meowerya was right.
But think about it, the Navy is not stupid. Since they have already learned the "Sky Comet Dragon", they certainly can't let go of the other forms.
"Yes! There is such a method! Sengoku, can we talk to the people in the science corps about it after we go back?"
Garp suddenly realized something and pounded his palm, and excitedly suggested to Sengoku: "It's better to change my ship into this... sea dragon form, so that I can dive to the bottom of the sea in places outside the Sabaody Archipelago in the future!"
Well, okay, let me correct it... There are still a few idiots in the navy...
While chatting with the two old men, Xie Wen and his friends came to the surface of the sea.
If pirates want to cross the Red Earth Continent, they can only pass through the coating and Fishman Island and drill under the Red Earth Continent, but members of the Navy and the World Government don't have to go through so much trouble.
There is a small island called "Red Port" on both sides of "Paradise" and "New World" directly below Santa Maria Joa, sandwiching the Red Earth Continent in the middle.
Through the "bubble elevators" at these two red ports, the personnel of the World Government can travel back and forth between the two seas separated by the Red Earth Continent.
For this purpose, the World Government specially transplanted several Argiman mangroves from the Sabaody Archipelago to maintain the operation of the Bubble Elevator.
For some reason, all the members participating in the World Conference were arranged to land at the red port on the "New World" side, so a large number of reporters gathered here early.
As Xie Wen and his team landed, the reporters who were originally photographing other royal family members immediately swarmed over.
The royal family of the fishmen, which is rarely seen by the public, already has a mermaid princess whose beauty is not inferior to that of the Pirate Queen, Xie Wen, a Shichibukai who recently killed a Shichibukai and had killed another Shichibukai before, and Marshal Sengoku, who was rarely seen after retiring some time ago.
With this configuration, even the most novice reporters know how to choose.
Whether it is Xie Wen, Maomao or Shirahoshi, they have long been accustomed to this kind of scene. They directly ignored the reporters on both sides and followed Garp and Sengoku to the Bubble Elevator. On the contrary, King Neptune and the three Neptune brothers were a little uncomfortable.
Of course, Xie Wen and his friends didn't completely ignore the group of reporters...
Because such an event is big news in itself and there is a high possibility of more big news in the future, Morgans, the birdman, naturally can't miss it.
As the absolute boss in the world's media field, the World Economic Association occupies the best position, so Xie Wen and his friends saw Morgans' conspicuous bird head as soon as they got off the boat.
"It's Uncle Morgans, meow!"
(=ΦΦ=)
"Mr. Morgans, we meet again, thank you for your care all the time."
Klee, who also saw him, raised her paw and greeted Morgans who was standing in the front, and Shirahoshi followed closely and greeted him...
This birdman was very happy.
After simply greeting Morgans, Xie Wen and his friends continued to follow Garp and Sengoku forward, but before they took two steps, there was another commotion in front, and a familiar figure blocked their way.
"Kapu!"
"Wow! It's Grandpa Qingjiao! Long time no see, meow!"
(=`=)
Keli Meow jumped off Xie Wen's body and quickly jumped onto Qingjiao's body.
"Oh my, my little darling Keli, let grandpa take a good look at you~ You are getting cuter and cuter!"
Qingjiao, who was originally aggressive, instantly turned back into a kind old grandfather.
And Keli Meow's next words moved him so much that he burst into tears...
"Klee, Brother Xie Wen, and Brother Qingjuro helped Grandpa Qingjiao to seek revenge on Grandpa Garp, but they didn't beat Meow in the end. Grandpa Garp is really powerful."
(=ˇˇ=)
"Garp! You bastard! How could you do such a cute little guy?!"
Qingjiao, who was moved to tears, turned around and changed his beard and hair to a state of being all erect, roaring at Garp.
"I didn't do anything to little Klee! Besides, if you hadn't been talking nonsense, how could such a well-behaved and obedient little Klee come to fight me?!"
Garp was also very angry, mainly because Klee Meow's words just now were obviously more biased towards Qingjiao, the defeated opponent. How could he tolerate this? Naturally, he fought back without hesitation.
Just...
Behaved and obedient?
Xie Wen twitched his mouth and didn't say anything, but quietly watched these two old men, who were almost 200 years old in total, quarreling like children in order to compete for Klee Meow's love.
"Enough! Garp! Stop embarrassing yourself here!"
In the end, it was Sengoku who stepped forward and pulled Garp aside, and the quarrel between the two old kids came to an end.
And Xie Wen and his party, who were delayed for a while, followed the team of Flower Country and boarded the same bubble elevator.
It's called an elevator, but it's actually more like a huge ship. Even huge bodies like Shirahoshi and Neptune can move around on it at will, and there are facilities in the middle of the elevator for people to rest and enjoy.
"Let me introduce you, this is the king of our Flower Country - His Majesty Ramen."
After boarding the elevator, Qingjiao brought a bald man with a dragon tattoo on his head, a chain hanging around his neck, a small round sunglasses, and two long mustaches.
But compared with his weird dress, Xie Wen wanted to complain more about the other party's name...because according to the language habits of the pirate world, everyone should usually call him - Ramen King.
It sounds like a brand of instant noodles.
Although his name has many flaws and he looks like a weirdo, the Ramen King is actually very easy to get along with. He did not show any resistance to King Neptune, but talked to him very friendly.
While the two kings were having a cordial meeting, Qingjiao brought two guys with distinctive looks to Xie Wen and introduced them to him: "These two are my useless grandsons, Cai Yi and Bu Wu."
Facing these two people, or more precisely, facing Lao Cai, Xie Wen was still a little embarrassed, after all, the other party's future wife was now standing behind him as a maid.
However, what Xie Wen didn't know was that Lao Cai and Abu were also a little embarrassed at this time...
Because after asking Qingjiao about the practice of domineering earlier, the two of them heard a lot of praise about Xie Wen from the old man, and during that time, Xie Wen was low-key and had no reputation.
This led to Lao Cai and Abu seeing Xie Wen, "other people's children", as an object of competition.
But as Xie Wen's reputation gradually expanded, Lao Cai and his friends' mentality also gradually changed.
When Xie Wen defeated Cracker, they were not very convinced. After killing Crocodile, they just thought Xie Wen might be slightly stronger than themselves. It was not until they solved the encirclement of the pirate coalition and fought with the Four Emperors Kaido that the two had to accept reality. However, the initial reluctance to accept was not so easy to disappear.
Therefore, Xie Wen was only a little embarrassed, but the two of them felt much more complicated at this time.
