One Piece Dragon Collector

Chapter 49
.........

The great route, the capital of seven waters.

This is a water city like a fountain. The buildings are stacked radially from top to bottom, with clean and clear water interspersed in the middle.The sun was shining, and the whole city was covered in misty mist, like a dream, not like a human world.

As a water city, the roads here are very special. Except for the not spacious bluestone ground in front of the shops on both sides, there are only one waterway in the center of the road.Local residents will raise a magical creature called "Bru" as a means of transportation on water. At the same time, Bruce has a strong carrying capacity and can also be used to carry goods. Moreover, Bruce has a gentle personality and looks gratifying. The small blue of the seat is a well-received play item.

After arranging the affairs of Gaya Island, Bernard went straight to the capital of seven waters without stopping at other islands on the way.

Of course, Bernard didn't come here for fun, but to extract the Ark Proverbs commissioned by Tom half a year ago.

……

The sun was pleasant and the breeze was gentle. Sitting on the beach chair, Bernard was chewing on the steak carefully prepared by the chef in the cooking class, while reading the latest news and newspapers to learn about the dynamics of the world.

The news has been blocked for more than half a year, and now Bernard wants to know as soon as possible what major events have happened in the world in the past half a year.

At this moment, the guard ran over and said after saluting.

"Sir Bernard, you can already see the capital of the seven waters, please give me instructions!"

"Well, okay. Tell everyone to prepare to dock. Without my order, everyone is not allowed to disembark at will. Anyone who violates the order will be hanged and beaten!"

Half an hour later, the gigantic Bernard's car docked in the middle of the medium-sized No. [-] dock of the Seven Water Capital Shipbuilding Company.

Bernard did not go directly to the shipyard to pick up the ship, but first cashed out the gold brought from Sky Island.

"My lord, this is [-] million Berries." An accompanying guard handed two large boxes to Bernard and said.

"Okay, let's go to the shipyard to pick up the ship." Bernard said lightly.

Leaving the bustling urban area, he headed towards the shipyard, but unexpectedly, some accidents happened on the way.

Suddenly a group of pirates jumped out from the side of the road, each with weapons in their hands, all kinds of knives, guns, swords and axes.

The leading pirate was five big and three thick, he opened his eyes angrily, the veins on his forehead bulged with his rough breath, and roared loudly: "Hey, hand over all the money on your body, can I still spare your life. "

Bernard was not surprised by the sudden appearance of pirates, and even felt a little less.

Bernard did not hide that he had cashed out the gold, so some interested people noticed that Bernard was a big fat sheep.

This batch of pirates was part of those who coveted Bernard.

Bernard took a closer look at the strength of this group of pirates, and there was nothing outstanding, and his interest suddenly faded.

Bernard is not the newcomer he was a year ago, and some simple identification of strengths and weaknesses can still be done.

Bernard didn't hide that he just wanted to attract some more powerful pirates to practice, but he didn't expect that only so many pirates came in the end.

"Get rid of them." Bernard ordered casually.

"Yes, my lord." The accompanying guards said respectfully.

After finishing speaking, the five-member guard around Bernard was like a tiger joining a pack of wolves, and not a single pirate was standing on the field after a while.

Without paying attention, Bernard continued to the shipyard.

"Huh~, it's a good thing we didn't act impulsively, otherwise our end would be miserable."

"That's right, you see, the Blackstone Pirates are too impulsive!"

"It's really thanks to them!"

.........

Some people who secretly observed this battle were terrified. They didn't expect Bernard and his group to be so strong.

Bernard knew that there must be other people in the dark, but the main purpose now is to pick up the boat first, so he didn't pay too much attention to it.

As soon as he entered the shipyard, Bernard looked around and imagined looking for Tom, but he still didn't see Tom like last time.

But Bernard saw another acquaintance—Big Han Hawke.

Similarly, Hawke also saw Bernard and his party.

"Hey, are you here to get the boat?" Hawke asked as he walked towards Bernard.

Hawke still has an impression of Bernard. Half a year ago, Bernard commissioned Tom to build a special boat, and Hawke himself participated in the manufacture of this boat.

"Yes, Master Tom and I made an agreement to pick up the boat in half a year. I wonder where Master Tom is now?" Bernard asked politely with a slight smile.

"Oh, then come with me!" With that said, Hawke led Bernard and his party to the underground of the shipyard.

There are also several ships docked underground, and it seems to be a place for shipbuilding.

After reaching the ground, Hawk pointed to a boat covered in black cloth and said, "Tom is over there, go by yourself."

This time Hawke didn't intend to continue following Bernard.

Bernard looked in the direction and said, "Thank you!" Then he turned to the people following him and said, "Except for Xiao Lan, you all go up and wait for me first."

"Yes, young master (adult)!"

After explaining the matter, Bernard walked towards the boat, followed by Xiaolan carrying the money.

Coming to the back of the boat, Bernard finally saw Tom. He was holding a wooden mallet and constantly beating on the boat, as if he was checking something.

Seeing that Tom didn't notice his arrival and was still immersed in his own world, Bernard shouted: "Master Tom!"

After hearing the voice, Tom finally came back to his senses. His concentration was interrupted, and he was about to get angry, "I didn't see that I was busy..."

Looking back, Bernard stopped complaining immediately.

"It's you." Tom said a little unhappy, obviously angry that Bernard interrupted his attention.

Interruption is always a bit unpleasant for anyone who is concentrating on work.

Bernard also noticed Tom's tone, and apologized, "I'm sorry, Master Tom, to bother you."

Bernard is a pragmatic person. For this kind of person he can respect, he can still say a gentle apology.

Otherwise, as Bernard Tianlong, no matter how unreasonable, what can others do to Bernard.

For Tom, Bernard still has some respect, not for his beautiful character, but for his pinnacle shipbuilding skills.

Compared with good quality and character, Bernard values ​​technical talents more. In this world where strength is the most important thing, as long as you are strong enough, what does it matter if you have a bad personality?

However, it cannot be said that Bernard completely ignores the aspect of personality. A person with a good personality is always much easier to get along with than a person with a bad personality.

This kind of respect is divided into people, even if it is a technical talent, it is impossible for Bernard to tolerate it without limit.

If Tom is replaced by M. Caesar Courant today, it will be another result.

Hearing Bernard's apology, Tom didn't continue to worry about anything, and was ready to get down to business.

　Here, I wish everyone a Mid-Autumn Festival reunion and a happy National Day! ! !
