Pirates of the First Empire

In the dead of night, there was only a bonfire flickering on Hulk Island at this time. Doyle also arranged for people to transfer the boat to Hulk Island so that everyone could rest at night.

Beside the bonfire, Espagu and Franky were still drinking. It had been a long time since they indulged themselves. In order to finish learning what Tom learned, they had to keep studying intensively. So, don’t talk about drinking and sleeping If you're drunk, you can't even get up a little later.

But today, on this special day, they all loosened their shackles, and ate and drank to their heart's content. They can no longer just live in confusion. From this day on, their future has a direction .

"Frankie, do you still remember..."

"Did you ever talk about the dream?"

Espagu put down the bottle he had already drank, and suddenly seemed to remember something, and asked Franky who was still showing off Coke.

Frankie doesn't like to drink alcohol. He likes Coke the most. He doesn't care about drinking tea. Anyway, he has no interest in alcohol. Very sober.

"You mean, build the strongest battleship..."

"It's not this one...cough cough cough cough~"

Espagu interrupted Franky, and stood up excitedly, but before he could continue, he choked on the nauseated drink, and hurried to the beach not far away.

"Hey, Bingshan, are you okay?"

"I'm fine! Also, don't change the subject!"

After Espagu spit out all the wine he drank all night at the beach, he still didn't forget what he said earlier. Frankie had no choice but to continue this topic after hearing that.

Just like that, the two sat by the sea, facing the boundless sea together again, feeling the salty sea breeze, and Frankie spoke seriously.

"Dream Ship?"

"Yeah! Dream Ship!"

Espagu nodded, that's it. This is Franky's first dream. It was the dream that Franky proposed for the first time when they first started learning shipbuilding from Mr. Tom. It is also the most innocent dream... …

"Dream Ship", the dream ship imagined by Franky, a ship that can sail on any sea surface, Franky wants to build a dream ship that can go to the end of time like Mr. Tom.

"That's right, it's him, and..."

"What else?"

"Bastard Frankie, don't play dumb! Did you forget your other half? I won't believe it!"

Esbagu was very dissatisfied with Frankie's acting stupid. In fact, in Doyle's divine power space today, Frankie's "obedience" made him feel strange. This is not the Frankie he knew. .

That "rebellious" guy will not be "convinced" casually. Even if His Highness Doyle is indeed not an ordinary person, the Academy of Sciences he established is indeed suitable for Franky's growth, but...

It was intuition, which told Espagu that Franky must be weird, so Espagu deliberately questioned Franky about this matter.

However, at this moment, a voice that seemed to be a smile that was not a smile sounded from the ears of the two of them, but when they heard the content of the words clearly, they were a little terrified.

"Take the "dream ship" I built and witness it go through countless winds and rains, and then witness it reach the end of the world, right? Frankie!"

"His Royal Highness Doyle!"

It was Doyle who appeared behind them, and that sentence was naturally said by Doyle. In fact, not only Espagu, but Doyle also felt that Franky was a bit weird.

Let’s just talk about Tom, it’s normal for the old murloc to be persuaded by him. Tom is already old, so it’s normal for him to choose to “compromise”. Moreover, Doyle’s actions are worthy of his attention, and he can be regarded as a man for himself. The two apprentices left a way out.

What about Espagu?In fact, he didn't recognize Doyle at first, but what happened later made him see the status quo clearly. Powers like pirates and the navy were not suitable for him. Coupled with Tom's relationship, he made a choice.

Moreover, if he wants to take an official career, then the one at the top must be the "king" who thinks he promises everything, not some legendary big pirate or admiral of the navy...

And what about Frankie?Just hearing about the existence of the "Academy of Science" and the "Weapon Research Center" from Doyle and Dan, he directly chose to join Doyle's command. This is not normal, or in other words, it does not fit the character of Franky. , has always been a personality.

However, now Espagu and Frankie don't have time to think too much. They just want to know how Doyle knows this. This is a secret between the two of them, and even Mr. Tang Min may not know it .

"Don't ask me why I know, or do you think it's strange that a person who can predict the future knows a little more?"

"No no no..."

Espagu and Frankie shook their heads together.

I don't know why, His Highness Doyle is obviously younger than them, but when facing him, it seems that he is facing an old monster that has lived for hundreds of years. The sense of oppression is not ordinary.

"Okay, stop joking, Frankie, let's talk about the topic just now, I should be right?"

"Um...that's right, it's like this, it was my...dream when I just started learning shipbuilding."

"What about now? Do you still think so?"

Espagu's gaze also followed Doyle's question and fell on Frankie, because this question was also what he wanted to ask just now, and he wanted to know what Frankie was thinking now.

"Well, yes, at the very least, the idea of ​​building a dream ship, that is, my dream has never changed, but the concept of "dream ship" has been changing!"

"Frankie, what do you mean?"

Espagu was a little puzzled, but Doyle had a vague guess. The dream is still the same dream, but people will grow. The more they know, the changes in cognition will also change some original concepts.

"That's right, Espagu, and Your Highness Doyle. The reason why I have such a dream is because Mr. Tom—his masterpiece "Oro Jackson" made the One Piece King Roger go smoothly. Reached the legendary island and became the recognized One Piece in the sea.”

"So, when we were new to shipbuilding at that time, we thought it would be like Mr. Tom, but, unlike Mr. Tom, I thought that I would witness all this myself!"

"But why do you say it keeps changing?"

Espagu was still a little puzzled.

"Eisbagu, why have you become so dull today? Under the guidance of Mr. Tom, our shipbuilding technology is improving every day. Even, besides ships, how many things do you think we can't build now? from?"

"As our technology becomes stronger, the "dream ship" in my imagination is also getting stronger, but it can only exist in my imagination, because we don't have enough conditions to realize it, and Now……

If His Royal Highness Doyle hadn't appeared, I was doomed to never be able to realize this dream for the rest of my life!"

As Frankie spoke, he recalled the pictures of the "future" he had seen. He had even given up on shipbuilding, how could he have the face to talk about his "first dream"?
