Chapter 214 The Responsibilities of the Shipbuilder

The fishman Tom had already said this, and Ajin didn't know how to persuade him to go to Donghai again, so he could only make a request from an international student. After being agreed by Tom, he chatted with the people in Tom's studio and saw that Tom was vaguely sending off the guests, so he left tactfully.

"Ajin is really unyielding." Carter Flam commented as he looked at Ajin's departure.

When Tom, the fishman, saw Akin walking away, asked his secretary Kokoro to close the door. He rarely ordered Esbago and Carter Flam to go to the warehouse that was usually ignored.

The two young men followed in confusion. After arriving at the place, Tom, the fishman, disappeared again. After a while, he came to the two with a thick stack of design drawings and handed the design drawings to the more stable Esbagu.

When I saw the content on the design drawing, even Esbagu, who had always been calm and mature, grew up his mouth.

Carter Flam, who was full of fantasy ideas all day long, couldn't help but question: "Can the things on this be made by humans?"

"This is the most terrifying monster ever born in shipbuilding history. The group of government people who came in front of Ajin today were for this design drawing. They already suspected that it was too dangerous for me to hold it again," Tom said seriously. "I hope you two can help me keep it and not let it fall into the hands of those ambitious people."

"...I understand, Mr. Tom, I will keep it well." Esbagu put down the design drawing nervously.

Carter Flam next to him suggested with interest: "Why don't we try to build it? Even if it is not completely built, build one or two weapons parts to see if the design drawings are true or false!"

"No!" Esbago flatly refused, "Now the government has doubted Mr. Tom's head. If we try to build something on the design drawings and they find clues, wouldn't we not tell ourselves?"

Ashbagu showed a hint of worry on his face and suggested to Tom, the fishman: "Mr. Tom, the world government can do anything, it really doesn't work. Are you considering looking at Ajin's proposal. After the trial results come out, live in the more remote East China Sea for a while and temporarily avoid the eyes and ears of the world government?"

The fishman Tom seemed to laugh for Esbagu's "naiveness": "Can you completely avoid the attention of the world government by running to the East China Sea? And how do you know that after we avoid the attention of the world government, we will not fall into the sight of other ambitious people? That Ajin is about to praise the consul of his hometown. Even if half of what he said is true, it is enough to show that the consul is not simple. If he hears the relevant news, are you sure he will not be able to think about it?"

"Then do you agree to accept the students they sent? Don't you worry about those people getting news from you?" Carter Flam asked strangely.

"So I'll hand over the design drawings to you two!" Fishman Tom said with a smile.

Carter Flam curled his lips and said, "You are so smart. What should they do if they get news from both of us?"

"No," Tom, the fishman, curled his smile, "I hope that after those international students come to me, you two will temporarily leave Tom's studio."

Bang!

The teacup that Esbagu had just held in his hand fell to the ground.

Carter Flam was stunned, then looked at Tom in disbelief: "You, you want to drive us away!?"

"No, you will always be part of Tom's studio, and I will never drive you away," said Tom, a fishman, seriously. "But you two have grown up. You are the most talented young people I have ever seen. Over the years, you should teach you the skills. You have learned it. It is time to break out your own world. With your talents, you should not stay in this garbage dump and go to the city..."

"I don't want to enter the city!" Carter Flam interrupted angrily, "I don't even know if the waste in the city can be built. Some places Ajin are actually very right. You are obviously the world's number one shipbuilder, but this city doesn't even give you the respect you should have!"

The environment of Tom's studio is not much better than the slums in the past in the Navia Kingdom. Except for the fewer people, the difference is not big. The garbage and the wastewater discharged from the city always have a faint smell around it. Carter Flam is not a spoiled person. He has lived here for more than ten years, but as Ajin said, in his eyes, the extremely great shipbuilder who had to surrender to such an environment, he felt that it was unfair, and in addition, he had no good impression of the city.

Tom was stunned for a moment. He did not feel any injustice or indignation at his situation, but looking at his disciples and students, he was inevitably moved to stand up for his injustice with sincerity.

The fishman Tom laughed habitually again. He was really happy, but in Flam's eyes, he seemed to disagree, which made Flam even more angry.

"What's so funny?" Flam said angrily, "I know you think Seven Waters are your home, so you can tolerate anything, but my home is Tom's Studio, not Seven Waters Capital!"

After Carter Flam finished speaking, he slammed the door and left behind the two masters and apprentices who were silent because of Flam's words.

"Fram is always so impulsive that he can't even wait to finish my words." Tom laughed again, but this time his smile was a little bitter.

He looked at his eldest disciple Esbagu again: "What Ajin said before has some truth. Just a sea train can't save the city. So I hope you two can only build ships when you enter the city, but the difficulties of this city cannot be solved by building ships. I believe you two will help me find a solution, especially you, Esbagu. You not only have the ability to build ships, but also have enough leadership talent. You can definitely help me and restore the Seven Waters Capital to what I remember."

The fishman Tom seemed to recall the grand occasion of the Seven Water Capital, and his face looked so full of energy.

"Mr. Tom, I don't understand..." Esbagu looked at Tom's appearance and seemed to be speechless. In fact, Esbagu didn't quite understand why his teacher had such a nearly mission-like feeling for saving the Seven Waters Capital.

Tom is a fishman, and as Ajin said, his name is not even on the household registration of the Seven Water Capital. It seems that it is not completely reasonable to just say that it is about his feelings for his hometown and home.

"I don't regret building a ship for Roger back then, that's even my lifelong glory," Tom, a fishman, knew what Esbago wanted to ask, and he said softly, "But the era of the Great Pirates did indeed start because of Roger, and the Seven Waters Capital gradually declined due to the opening of the Great Pirates. If the ship has problems, the shipbuilder has the responsibility to repair it. Now, the ship of the Seven Waters Capital has been damaged because of my reasons. As a shipbuilder, I have even more responsibility and obligation to repair it."
