Roar of the Pirate Fire Dragon

"Nami, please be gentle. It hurts. It hurts."

The man whose head was wrapped like a mummy cried out in pain.

"Damn it, I also want Miss Nami to put a bandage on me."

On the opposite side, the same mummy said angrily.

"But I am the doctor, Sanji."

The petite reindeer protested loudly.

"Damn it, did I still get killed instantly?"

The man holding the three swords in his arms looked a little unwilling.

“This is not surprising at all”

Holding a book in her hand and flipping through it, the elegant black-haired woman smiled, "After all, my opponent is that fire dragon, Ferdinand Vlad, he is one of the new four emperors."

"Hey four emperors"

The orange-haired woman was holding a bandage in her hand to bandage her idiot captain, and exclaimed, "Isn't that the Sea Emperor of the New World? The most powerful pirate is so young but he is already so powerful?"

"Yeah,"

Reilly, who was sitting on a tree stump not far away and drinking wine, laughed and said, "Brother Vlad is very powerful. The first time we met was almost three years ago, haha, catch that Shiji." ”

"This guy is the Yonko"

Straw Hat looked a little surprised, "No wonder it's so powerful. It hurts. Nami, please be gentle."

"Hold on, really, Mr. Raleigh,"

After bandaging the straw hat, Nami asked Rayleigh with some dissatisfaction, "Why do you want them to fight against such an opponent?"

"Hahahaha, this is necessary."

Reilly smiled, "Only when you recognize and understand this world, a man can learn to grow."

"I won't lose again next time."

Straw Hat said so.

"The one who wants to become the Pirate King is my dragon-changing bastard, and I have to defeat him."

"Hahaha, that's not a simple matter."

Rayleigh nodded, "However, now that you have such determination, the next training will not be so easy."

"Let the horse come here"

Seeing an unprecedentedly powerful enemy, an extremely strong flame began to burn in Straw Hat's heart.

On the other side, Vlad, Franky and the iceberg they just brought from the Capital of Seven Waters have returned to their own territory, the country of the fire dragon.

"Okay, please two of you,"

In a huge room, Vlad looked at the two professionals in front of him, "You already have a rough idea of ​​the situation here. The construction of the sea train network is indeed very important to us. "

Centered on Tassa Island, the headquarters of the Fire Dragon Pirates, the dozen or so islands scattered in the surrounding seas are now Vlad's pilot projects for the industrial revolution, and connecting these places is really important. step.

Vlad wanted to truly integrate these dozen islands, more than a dozen countries, and numerous towns. To achieve true integration, spiritual integration was required. This purpose relied on Vlad's subsequent development The media structure and follow-up methods will spread the same values. When everyone has the same cultural identity, even if they are not originally a country, they will gradually identify with each other.

At the same time, spatial connections are absolutely indispensable, so Vlad has integrated many countries and towns together. War is impossible under his influence, and friction will never be less. However, communication is also inevitable.

The sea train connects many islands that have reached their limit of fusion and cannot continue to expand because the water is too deep. It is really an important means of connecting space.

“Whether it’s manpower or resources,”

Vlad looked very angry, "As much as you want, I want one thing, two of you, the fastest, most stable, strongest and most invincible sea train, this is what I want."

"Oh just leave it to me."

Frankie knocked his chest with his hand and laughed, "Although it is not necessary in itself, if you add this guy, the progress will indeed be faster."

The guy he was talking about was referring to the iceberg on the side. The man who was originally the mayor of the Seven Rivers City was now alone due to the Judiciary Island incident. He was leisurely running a shipyard. This time he was also pulled over by Vlad. .

"Hey, Franky"

Bingshan rubbed his forehead and looked speechless, "Are you looking down on me?"

"Hey, we have a really good relationship."

Vlad smiled, "As expected of a senior brother."

"By the way, this thing is the steam engine made by Vegapunk himself,"

Vlad kicked the machinery next to him and said casually, "Let's see, it's definitely much more efficient than the steam engine on the sea train you carried on the Seven Waters Capital."

"This is"

Eyes began to glow, Frankie squatted on the ground with Bingshang and began to mass this Vegapunk masterpiece.

"Vegapunk's work"

"Amazing"

“It’s really not a work of the same era.”

Admirations came from their mouths.

"correct"

Vlad clapped his hands and suddenly remembered something, "Steam engines need coal, right?"

"Of course"

Bingshan looked a little surprised.

"But the trouble is,"

Vlad smiled, "We don't produce coal here, that's all."

"call"

The wind was howling, and the huge dragon-man had appeared in front of Frankie Iceberg. It was extremely tall and mighty.

"It's not easy to buy coal. After all, everyone knows the limitations of the sea."

This may be one of the reasons why steam engines cannot become popular. Not all islands produce coal. Perhaps, most of the islands do not produce coal. The world is divided, and the number is hard to estimate. Islands together make up this world. Under such circumstances, the transportation problem is equally difficult.

"So, I wonder if I can find another way?"

Vlad grinned and spread his right hand. The flames surged out, and then condensed instantly, merging into a brick of flame in Vlad's hand.

"You say,"

"Snapped"

Gently throwing the Flame Brick on the ground, Vlad smiled and asked, "Can this thing be used as coal?"

The main operating principle of a steam engine is to boil water to produce steam through heating, and to use high pressure to make the steam generate strong power, thereby driving the piston to do work, and the power comes from this.

The purpose of fuels such as coal is to heat water through the boiler and make the water boil.

As far as heating is concerned, the fire brick made by Vlad is quite interesting. Made by Vlad, the temperature can reach up to several thousand degrees. Heating water is of course a piece of cake. What's even more interesting is that, Just like the Piao Piao Fruit can keep the island flying in the sky as long as the Golden Lion does not faint, the solidified fire brick can always exist as long as Vlad does not lose consciousness, emitting a frightening high temperature.

In other words, only a fire brick is needed, and as long as Vlad lowers the temperature a little, a steam engine can be used to destroy it. Vlad will be moved by himself.

Clean, efficient, low-cost energy, Vlad always thought he was a chef, and never thought he could do it. After all, as long as Vlad is willing, he can have as much of this kind of thing as he wants.
