The Pirate: The Black Duke

Reinhardt didn’t know what Tom’s true thoughts were in his mind, so he spoke directly and said with a smile: “I don’t care what the world government wants from you. I only care about Mr. Tom if you are willing to work for me?”

"Working for you...?" Tom was taken aback for a moment, and then laughed, "Young man, I'm all in the grade that should go to earth, it's not worth the price you paid for me."

"Hehe, in this world, a person's value never changes because of age." Reinhardt continued to laugh, "Tom the Murloc, it is worth so much."

Tom couldn't guess his thoughts, but it didn't seem like a joke to see his serious gaze at this time.

"I can only build ships." Tom took a sip of wine and said in a deep voice. If the guy in front of him wanted to get involved in the design drawings of Pluto, he would refuse to cooperate, even if he lost his life for it.

"Don't worry, let's do your job and build a great route and sea train for me." Reinhardt said slowly.

"that is it?"

After hearing these words, Tom was still a little disbelief, so he asked in a low voice.

"I have reached an agreement with the world government that I will personally fund the construction of sea trains between the Great Sea Route and the Four Seas to connect the four seas and the trade routes between the Great Sea Routes."

Speaking of this, Reinhardt mentioned: "This is completely commercial."

Listening to Reinhardt's tone, it seems that this matter does not seem to be a joke, but the sea train was built by individuals, which sounds very ridiculous. Apart from the world government, who in this world can put out so much money?

Thinking of this, Tom's expression was serious: "Do you know how much Bailey is needed to build a sea train?"

"I have prepared 500 billion Baileys, which will be counted as the first phase of the project."

He does not know the specific cost of the sea train, but based on what he knows about the price of Pirate World, the cost of this project is definitely not low, but even if it is high, the initial capital of 500 billion Baileys must be a lot, of course. , He will continue to provide subsequent funds.

Tom's expression paused for a while, but he didn't expect the young man in front of him to be so determined, saying that he was 500 billion Baileys.

"I am not qualified to work for others now."

Tom laughed, "I am just an old man who is about to be executed by the world government. I may not be able to work for you."

"Since I came to Judicial Island personally, it means that this matter will not be without a turn for the better. I hope that before then, I can get your personal commitment." Reinhardt didn't care what Tom said, Tom's value is not yet Maximize, so there is enough value to spend more to protect him.

After hearing this sentence, Tom remained silent for a long time without answering.

"I want to know your identity." After a while, Tom asked. He knew nothing about the young man in front of him. Even if he promised to work for him if he got lucky, but if the man in front of him is heinous, The unethical guy, then he might as well be executed by the world government.

"I am from the Kingdom of Polkaria in the North Sea, Reinhardt." Reinhardt was not angry about Tom's inquiries. On the contrary, it indicated that Tom was seriously considering this matter.

"After I have fully negotiated with the world government, you can inquire about my name in Beihai through various channels. I believe that in some respects, I am more than just a certain morality that you have always followed in your heart. , More in line with the heroic image of most civilians."

"Sneer..." Tom the Murloc laughed suddenly, "I have never seen anyone boasting about themselves so much and thinking of themselves as a hero."

"If you don't understand, you have no right to speak, so I hope Mr. Tom can learn more in the future."

"Listen to your tone, so sure you can save me?" Tom continued to ask.

Reinhardt shook his head: "I am not sure if I can save you, but think that the value of your death is far lower than the value of your survival, whether it is for the world government or for both you and me. Say, it's all so."

"Your charge is not big or small. In the final analysis, it is just building a ship for Roger, the Pirate King. This charge should have been offset by your achievements in building sea trains a few days ago, but You are still imprisoned here today, obviously not because of shipbuilding." Reinhardt thought for a long time, and after clarifying the thoughts in his mind, he continued: "I don't think I need to continue talking. "

"Some secrets will be known to others besides you and the world government, but I have never been interested in this secret."

"I paid a huge price. On the face of it, it is to eliminate your charge of building a ship for Roger, but privately, you, me, and the world government know that I only took out a huge amount of interest for the time being. It blocked the secret action that the world government coveted you."

After this series of words were spoken, Tom the Murloc was shocked. The secret was the design of the ancient weapon [Pluto]. He stood up subconsciously and scanned Reinhardt in surprise.

"What else do you know?"

"I know everything, but I can pretend to know nothing." Reinhardt and Tom looked at each other.

"Mr. Tom, don't be excited." Reinhardt smiled and shook his head: "As I said, I am not interested in all of this. I am only interested in your sea train manufacturing technology."

Tom stared at him for a while, and then suddenly laughed again: "You kid, you are really going to be mystery. If you can solve this matter, I will get to know you well. If it can't be solved, then forget it."

Hearing what he said, Reinhardt knew that Tom’s side had no problems, but Nicolas and Doflamingo hadn’t moved for a long time, and it seemed that the situation had become less optimistic.

Thinking of this, Reinhardt smiled and said: "Then I will briefly tell you the plan of the sea train, and you can estimate the deadline and funds."

Afterwards, Reinhardt briefly talked about the sea train plan for the great route through the upside-down mountains to the four seas.

The two discussed together for a long time. Finally, after a simple calculation, Tom estimated that the project would take three years and the funds would be more than 300 billion Baileys.

The sea train for this distance can be said to be very short. The main point of time-consuming and huge capital expenditure is that the construction environment is extremely dangerous because the seawater is always upstream, so the sea train cannot be built in the sea. Instead of building on the mountain next to it.
