Above the Pirate King

Chapter 541 Completion of Sea Train
How many mechs it carries is very important!

What is the most important thing about an aircraft carrier?
Aviation of course!

An aircraft carrier without aviation capabilities is like a large steel junk, useless!

Anyone who knows about aircraft carriers knows that an aircraft carrier itself has no firepower. No matter which country's aircraft carrier it is, it is very unified in this regard.

And why?
There are many reasons, such as load, inconvenient steering and so on!
But the main thing is speed!

The aircraft carrier is very big and heavy. Compared with other ships in terms of speed, it is almost like a son and father. Any other type of ship can basically beat an aircraft carrier in terms of speed!
In this case, any ship can easily destroy the aircraft carrier by relying on speed!

Therefore, there is not much firepower on the aircraft carrier!
After all, it is basically a ship that can hit an aircraft carrier based on its speed, and can also destroy an aircraft carrier by relying on speed. In this case, no matter how much firepower an aircraft carrier has installed, it is useless!
However, this is not a big deal for aircraft carriers!
The main function of an aircraft carrier is still aviation. Through the power of the air, it can affect the outcome of a war. Therefore, the requirements for firepower of an aircraft carrier are actually relatively indifferent!

Moreover, the aircraft carrier will not have only one ship to travel!

In the world before Arthur traveled, there was such a word, aircraft carrier battle group!

What does that mean?

It is a combat formation headed by an aircraft carrier!

In this combat formation, in addition to the aircraft carrier, there are many different types of ships responsible for attacking the enemy and protecting the aircraft carrier.

In this case, the aircraft carrier is relatively indifferent in terms of firepower, and the aircraft carrier does not have to fight in person anyway!
"Return to Your Majesty, our aircraft carrier can carry sixty mechs!" Meck replied.

As soon as he heard this answer, Arthur couldn't help frowning!
There is no reason for him!

Too little!
In the case that the mecha doesn't need a runway and occupies a smaller area than the carrier-based aircraft, the number of carrier-based aircraft can be carried by the medium-sized aircraft carrier before he crossed. Isn't this less?
"However." After pondering for a moment, Meke said, "This is because the original steam mecha was used! I designed a new steam mecha long ago, which is specially used for combat at sea!"

"This steam mecha not only reduces the size and weight, but also enhances the flying ability. If this mecha is used, the aircraft carrier can carry almost a hundred mechas!"

"However, the disadvantages of this mecha are also obvious. Because it needs to reduce its size and enhance its flying ability, its defense has been greatly reduced, and its firepower has also been greatly reduced!"

Hearing this, Arthur's eyes lit up.

It sounds like there are many shortcomings, but in fact they are not a problem!
There are no anti-aircraft guns or anti-aircraft guns in this world, and there is no problem with the reduction of defense power. Anyway, if you fight in the air, the opponent can't hit it!
And the reduction in firepower is not a problem!

It is used for naval battles, and ships on the sea are far inferior to land cities in terms of defense. In this case, although the firepower is reduced, the lethality is increased!
Ordinary ships can't withstand the attack from the sky at all!

Arthur asked, "When will this kind of mecha be built?"

"Anytime!" Meck smiled and said, "This is originally based on the transformation of the original steam mecha, so there is no difficulty. As long as I use the fruit ability to transform the existing mecha, it will take up to ten days." Enough!"

"That's great!" After Arthur said something happily, he seemed to think of something again, clapped his hands, and said, "That's right! Although all aspects of this mecha are taken from the original mass-produced machine Mecha, but its purpose and data are different, so it’s better to distinguish it from the previous mecha and give it a new name, how about that?”

"This..." Meke frowned, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "That's right, I want to give you a new name! Then please give it a name, Your Majesty!"

Hearing what Arthur said, he also felt that it should be named a new name!

And the reason why Arthur gave the name was not to please Arthur, it was completely because he was incompetent in naming, and he didn't bother to think about these things, so he simply left the issue of naming to Arthur!
"Hmm!" Arthur was not polite, and after nodding, he began to think!
After a while, he said in a deep voice, "Then, let's call it Fengshen! From now on, this type of mecha will be called Fengshen I, and the original mecha will be called Zhanshen I! Make them into two types! "

"If you want to upgrade in the future, use Fengshen II, Fengshen III, Ares II, Ares III, and so on! The Fengshen type is specially used for sea combat, and the Ares type is specially used for land combat! "

"Understood, Your Majesty!" Meck nodded.

"By the way, this aircraft carrier should also have an official name!" Arthur said suddenly.

Before Arthur crossed, no matter which aircraft carrier it was, it had its own name, so he felt that this ship should also be named!
"Your Majesty, please give me a name!" Meck said directly.

Well, he, who is incompetent in naming, is too lazy to think about it!

"Then let's call it the Maker! From the design, to the research and development, to the finished product, you have put a lot of effort into this ship, so let's name it after you!" Arthur patted Maker on the shoulder and smiled. said.

In an instant!
Meke, who didn't care about the name at first, was suddenly touched in the bottom of his heart, and his eyes turned red.

"Your Majesty. This." Meke was a little moved and wanted to say something.

But Arthur patted him on the shoulder and interrupted with a smile, "Okay, don't say anything, you deserve it!"

After finishing speaking, Arthur said loudly to the scientists, workers, and guarding soldiers around him, "You all have made contributions this time, and I will reward you with St. Martins ranging from one hundred thousand to one hundred million according to your achievements." currency!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Hearing this, all the scientists, workers, and soldiers guarding the scene shouted happily!

After everyone recovered from their joy, and Meke also recovered from his emotion, Arthur asked Meke, "How much does this aircraft carrier cost?"

"Your Majesty, according to our calculations, the cost of an aircraft carrier is probably in the early 100 billion Baileys!" Meck said in a deep voice.

Very expensive!

The price of two white beards!

However, it did not surprise Arthur!
Although this aircraft carrier is a simple version assembled with many black technologies, it is still an aircraft carrier. With its size, it is worth a lot of money even if it is sold as scrap iron. The cost is naturally not low!
And Arthur didn't care about that either!
He didn't want to build more things like aircraft carriers!
After all, in this world, things like aircraft carriers have been infinitely weakened in effect, far from the shocking situation he had before crossing!
no way!
There is a character in this world called a strong man!
In front of the strong, the aircraft carrier is just a bigger tin toy, and it is useless to deal with them. It doesn't take much effort for them to deal with this tin toy!

Simply!
The reason why Arthur wanted to build an aircraft carrier in the first place was not to deal with these strong men!
I just want to let St. Martin's navy have a crushing advantage in naval battles when dealing with other kingdoms!

To deal with the strong, the best weapon is of course the strong!

"Okay, I know almost everything about this aircraft carrier, let's go into the water and try it now!" Arthur said with a smile.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Meke nodded, and said loudly to a group of scientists and workers behind him, "Everyone is in position, ready to set sail!!!"

"Yes!"

The crowd replied loudly.

"Da da da!"

With the sound of messy footsteps, everyone left the deck, entered various positions on the Maker, and got ready.

Soon!

"Wow—!"

Accompanied by the sound of waves, the Maker started without any accidents!
-
Sunset!

After a busy day on the aircraft carrier, Arthur just returned to the palace!
And as soon as he returned to the palace, he received a surprise news!

"What, the sea train of the world government is completed?" Arthur said in surprise.
