"My father-in-law is right. I am a little too impatient." Luo Heng said with a smile.
"Well, let's build one according to this blueprint and see how it goes."
"If there are no problems, we will upgrade."
Jiazhi was very satisfied with his son-in-law's humble attitude and nodded to Luo Heng with a kind face.
"Gardino, your candles will remain unaffected even at sea."
"Why not build small ships out of candles?"
“While saving raw materials, it can also greatly increase the speed.”
"I hope to use a treasure like Wabo Metal on giant battleships and use them as flagships of various fleets." Luo Heng suddenly had an idea.
"I have no objection." Gardino nodded.
"Okay, without further ado, let's get started now."
After leaving the office building, Valpo first went to the material base and devoured a set of materials used to build engines.
After all, the internal combustion engines used in ships cannot be made with candles.
After Walpo finished his preparations, everyone chose a relatively flat sandy area.
Then Gardino pressed his hands to the ground, and a large area of sand suddenly turned into milky white candles.
In order to make it easier for Valpo to swallow them, Gardino also molded the candles into two-cubic spheres.
Such a large candle ball looked like a bunch of sweet chocolate beans in front of Walpo's big mouth.
At first, I only ate one or two.
Later, as Walpo's body continued to grow, he could eat dozens of them in one bite.
The Jiazhi family was stunned by what they saw.
By the time Valpo had eaten all the ingredients, his body had expanded into a giant a hundred meters tall.
His stomach was wriggling wildly, as if there were countless monsters inside.
It wasn't until several minutes later that Walpo's mouth finally opened again.
A pointed bow was slowly spit out from his mouth and slowly fell on the sand.
“It’s just amazing.”
"Devil Fruits are truly something that can create miracles."
Until the slender warship was completely spit out, Judge couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
"Tsk, it's not certain whether it can be opened."
"Maybe it will sink as soon as it enters the water." Iji said with some disdain.
"Iji!" Judge glared at his son and scolded him.
Although Luo Heng hated his brother-in-law, he didn't say much.
Arguing with this non-human with a dull brain would make him seem a bit cheap.
Now the Golden Lion has not returned yet. In order to send the warship to the sea for testing, Luo Heng had no choice but to purchase the Golden Lion's ability in the training camp.
Viper: Makes objects float, unaffected by gravity.
The price is not expensive, only 50 million Baileys.
It seems that this very practical ability is not very powerful in the system's judgment.
"Let's go, everyone get on board and let's go to the sea to test the boat." Luo Heng took the lead and jumped onto the deck of the warship.
Everyone jumped up without suspecting anything.
Then Luo Heng reached out and slapped the side of the ship, and the warship with a displacement of thousands of tons quickly floated up and flew towards the nearest seashore.
However, when the warship flew over the factory, Luo Heng used this ability to bring back a batch of steel and fuel.
If the candle didn't work, he wouldn't have to make another trip back and forth.
The flying speed of the Floating Fruit was very slow, so Luo Heng had no choice but to fly to the stern of the ship and use its lightning flying ability to propel it.
An hour later, they finally reached the sea.
Luo Heng controlled the ship and slowly descended into the sea.
This slender hull has a deep draft, which makes it very stable in seawater.
"I'm going to start." Luo Heng pushed the push rod that controlled the power.
Everyone suddenly felt the ship shake slightly, and the huge resonant sound of the internal combustion engine came from the stern.
As expected, the ship began to move slowly.
As Luo Heng continued to push the control stick, the ship began to gradually accelerate.
Even though it has only been pushed less than halfway now.
The current speed is also much faster than that of the old battleships when they are fully sailed.
Everyone couldn't help but show joy on their faces.
It seems that the design of this ship is very reasonable, worthy of being a work of Vegapunk.
Next, in order to test the ship's maximum speed, Luo Heng directly turned on the power to full capacity.
He felt that the battleship's speed at this moment was at least 25 knots.
Converted into land speed, it is 50 kilometers per hour.
It really doesn't sound like a big deal.
But in this world where ship technology has never advanced.
This speed can be described as lightning.
In the case of an exchange of naval gun fire, if one side has higher maneuverability, it can basically avoid most of the other side's attacks.
Be invincible from the very beginning.
However, just as everyone was immersed in the joy of the successful experiment of the first ship.
The speed of the ship suddenly slowed down.
"What happened? Why did the speed suddenly decrease?" everyone asked in confusion.
But that’s not all.
As the warship slowed down, everyone felt that the bow of the ship was slowly rising.
"No, there must be something wrong at the back." Luo Heng rushed out of the control room and jumped to the stern.
Immediately afterwards, he saw that there was a big hole at the stern of the battleship, where the internal combustion engine was placed, and seawater was constantly pouring in.
Luo Heng was stunned when he saw this. He didn't expect that Yizhi's words would come true.
He quickly flew to the breach to observe.
It turned out that the gap looked like it had been melted.
