Chapter 352
052, Cannot Be Repaired
“Hahaha, your boat must be very happy, it doesn’t matter, it doesn’t matter, Kaku must be very happy to see someone with the same length as his nose, right.”
Mr. Iceberg said with a laugh.
Kaku’s expression did not change in the slightest, but he still nodded.
“The matter of climbing relatives will be discussed later, Kaku, just take a look at their ship first.
“Yes, Mr. Iceberg.
Kakula took a stance, moved his legs, and then swooped out.
“So fast!
The Luffy trio exclaimed.
In the blink of an eye, they couldn’t see Kaku’s figure.
“It’s amazing, Kaku is the carpenter of our No. 1 dock. His running speed is the fastest in the entire water capital, so he has helped us retain a lot of business. He will be back for a while, why don’t you follow me? Going around in the shipyard, if you do meet the right boatman, I don’t really mind you taking him away. At least you look like a bunch of innocent kids.
Mr. Iceberg said with a smile.
“Well, then thank Mr. Iceberg for pulling.”
Nami dragged Luffy and Usopp, who were still looking at Kaku’s departure direction 01, and followed behind Mr. Iceberg into the repair area.
About five minutes later, Kaku appeared atop Going Merry’s mast and looked around at Going Merry.
Zoro, who was sleeping on the deck, first opened one eye and glanced at Kaku, and because of his long nose, he mistook him for Usopp.
Zoro, who closed his eyes again, realized that something was wrong after two seconds.
Usopp was incapable of crouching on top of the mast in that position.
“You bastard, how dare you pretend to be Usopp, get out of here.
Zoro just pulled the knife out.
“The fence is damaged in many places. Although it has been repaired, it is only thickened. The deck is still intact, and there is no road gap in the bottom plate, but the keel is about to break.
Kaku jumped off the mast while summarizing what he saw.
“Are you talking about Usopp, a guy with a long nose like me? He and two other people went to our dock to ask for help, and let me check the ship for you.
Kaku didn’t show any hostility, and what he said mentioned Usopp and two other people, who happened to be Luffy and Nami who acted with Usopp, the credibility was very high, so Zoro thought for a while, then put the knife away go back.
“What did you say about the keel?
Zoro is a lunatic, but he can easily understand the simple structures that are visible to the naked eye.
The problems that Kaku summed up, he can correspond to Going Merry’s body, only this keel, he did not understand.
“The keel is the most basic structure that supports the whole ship, that is, the center of the base on a straight line from the bow to the stern. It is as important as the human spine.”
Kaku explained.
“It turned out to be there. You said just now that Going Merry’s keel is about to break, is that true?”
Zoro was a little anxious.
Since the keel is the same as the human spine, he can properly experience it in depth.
“Yes, this is no longer a problem that can be solved here. I can’t decide how to deal with it. I will report the inspection results to Bingshan Xinsheng. The biggest possibility is to transport your ship back to No. 1. The dock repair shop, let Mr. Bingberg inspect it himself. However, I suggest you to be mentally prepared. In my experience, there is no precedent for repairing a ship with such a problem. ”
After Kaku finished speaking, he left neatly.
Leaving Zoro in silence, he stood alone on the deck of Going Merry, letting the furious sea wind blow his clothes.
Killing intent poured out from his body, but this killing intent dissipated in a daze because he couldn’t find the target.
Kaku returned to Dock No. 1 and reported his inspection results to Mr. Iceberg in front of Luffy and the others.
Mr. Iceberg’s face suddenly turned cold, and he glanced at Luffy and the others with a sad expression.
Luffy and the others also heard Kaku’s words, but they, like Zoro, didn’t know what the keel was, so they didn’t despair yet.
Moreover, he is now in the water capital known as the Holy Land of Shipbuilding, and standing in front of him is Mr. Bingshan, who was specially recommended by Granny Coco, and is known as the best shipbuilder in the world.
The three of Luffy naively believed that there was no ship in this world that Mr. Iceberg couldn’t repair.
Feeling the eager eyes of Luffy and the others, Mr. Bingshan couldn’t bear to break their hopes now, he could only turn his head, sighed softly, and then ordered.
“You guys go get their ship back first, and I’ll check it again myself.
The slight worry on the faces of the three of Luffy turned into joy.
This appearance reminded Mr. Bingshan of the brother who fought with him since childhood.
When Going Merry was brought back, Solo jumped off the boat and stood with Luffy and the others.
Zoro’s silence and gloom did not arouse Luffy’s idea, because their eyes were all fixed on Mr. Iceberg, full of expectations.
With his assistant, Mr. Iceberg personally checked Going Merry inside and out.
Finally, with the same gloomy expression as Zoro, he got off the boat.
“How is it, Mr. Iceberg?”
Luffy and the others were actually able to feel Mr. Iceberg’s emotions to some extent, but 790 subconsciously ignored those negative emotions.
However, things have come to this point, and it is not something they can just ignore.
Mr. Bingshan watched back and forth between the three of them for a long time, and finally squeezed out a sentence.
“Sorry, it’s impossible for your ship to continue sailing.””
“what?
The three exclaimed at the same time.
“I know this will be very difficult to accept, but the fact is that there is a deep crack in the middle of your boat’s keel, and now it is about to reach its limit. A slightly larger wave may break it in two. cut, and the ship will be destroyed.” 5
Mr. Iceberg gave his opinion very objectively.
However, Luffy how they can accept.
“Impossible, impossible. Isn’t it just fine?”
“Yes, Going Merry sent us to Sky Island and brought us back safely.
“And the Red Line, which Going Merry took us across, couldn’t have been more fragile.
The words of the three made Mr. Bingshan silent for a moment.
Now, he knew why the ship was hurt like this.
After thinking for a long time in Luffy’s chatter, Mr. Iceberg finally found a reason to convince the three.
