Pirate's Plant Fruit

Chapter 698 Steam Engine Power

In addition to the Victory Hunter, the Utan Detection also used powerful firepower to attack.

First, the general heavy artillery was used for violent bombardment.

Then the super gorilla cannon on the bow of the ship aimed at the burning Guard No. [-] along with the bow.

"Aim at the target, launch!"

The gorilla gave the order to attack.

The super gorilla cannon on the bow of Utan Probe flashed a flame.

"Boom!!!"

A heavy artillery shell was fired at Guard One at a very high speed.

Guard No. [-] was hit by this heavy artillery shell, followed by an earth-shattering explosion.

This heavy artillery shell penetrated the side hull of Guard [-], hit the interior and caused a violent explosion.

But the disaster didn't stop there. After the explosion of this heavy artillery shell, it detonated the arsenal inside the Guard No. [-], which led to a larger-scale explosion.

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"

A series of violent explosions blasted the hull of the heavy warship, and the entire Guard One became two halves.

This heavy warship sank into the sea quickly, leaving only thick smoke billowing on the sea.

Guard No. 2 and Guard No. 1 were sunk one after another, and now the ratio of warships between the Saruyama United Army and the Bellamy Pirates has reached [-]:[-].

On the deck of the Victory Hunter, everyone was very happy after seeing that the Guard No. [-] was also sunk.

"Great!"

Luffy jumped up excitedly.

"Long live!"

Usopp was shaking with joy.

"We now have the upper hand in terms of strength."

The orangutan also had a happy expression on his face. After all, he had sunk two enemy heavy warships in a row, which made the battle largely in favor of this side.

However, Montblanc Kulik's expression was still serious.He observed the only remaining New Vitch Bellow.The flames and thick smoke dissipated one after another after the New Vitch Bellow was heavily shelled just now.

"Don't get too excited, we are only now facing the real fierce battle."

Montblanc Kulik quickly ordered the crew to prepare to deal with this most powerful super-heavy warship.

Victory. Hunter and Utan. Probe are both ready to fight.

On the deck of the New Vitch Bellow, the flames and thick smoke from the intensive shelling just now dissipated one after another.

Luo Shi stood on it and observed the surrounding scene.

Both Guard No. [-] and Guard No. [-] near New Vitch Bellow sank into the rolling waves.

The two heavy warships were sunk, and only the New Vitch Bellow was left to fight alone.

Luo Shi looked at the sea ahead again. Although the two heavy pirate ships of the Saruyama United Army suffered losses, they were still capable of fighting.

The New Vitch Bellow now needs to deal with the two heavy pirate ships of the Bellamy Pirates with one against two.

Luo Shi quickly issued an order and said, "Start up the two steam engines now. Drive the new Veitch Bellow to the fastest speed."

"As ordered!"

The crew who received the order immediately carried it out.

The New Vitch Bellow is the most advanced super-heavy warship produced by Dressrosa, a world military power.

In addition to its huge size, it is also equipped with powerful firepower.

But these are actually not the most important. This super-heavy warship itself is equipped with a very advanced power plant.

That is the steam engine.

At the steam boiler inside the cabin of the New Vitch Bellow, a group of shirtless and burly men were using shovels to shovel a large amount of coal into the steam boiler.

"Hurry up! Everyone push the horsepower to the maximum!"

A large amount of coal was filled into the steam boiler, and during the rapid combustion, a large amount of steam was evaporated from the water tank above at high temperature.

The steam pushed the rotation of the machinery above, and began to generate huge power.

These power machines are connected by drive shafts to the two huge propellers at the stern of the ship.

The two huge propellers at the stern began to rotate violently under the action of huge power.

The rotation of the two huge propellers produced a huge thrust, which made the huge hull of the New Vichi Bellow begin to accelerate.

With the power provided by two steam engines, this super-heavy warship moved forward at a speed far exceeding the power of ordinary sails.

At the position in the middle and rear of the New Vitch Bellow's hull, huge black smoke continuously emerged from the two huge chimneys.

These are the smoke formed by the mixture of burning coal and water vapor, and they provide enough power for this super-heavy warship.

The New Vitch Bellow went on, faster and faster.

The intensive shelling just now destroyed and burned the huge sails of the mast on the deck of this super-heavy warship.

The power of the sails was lost, which was one of the important reasons why Luo Shi ordered the use of steam engines.

At this time, everyone on the Victory Hunter and Utan Probe saw the huge hull of the New Vichi Bellow moving fast.

On the deck of the Victory Hunter, Luffy, Usopp, the orangutan and even Montblanc Kulik were extremely shocked.

Luffy said in surprise: "How does this ship travel so fast?"

Usopp said with a look of surprise: "The enemy's warships are moving so fast, and what's the matter with the black smoke?"

Montblanc Kulik observed with a serious face the two plumes of billowing black smoke coming out of the two large chimneys on the hull of the New Vichi Bellow.

He said seriously: "Could it be that the rumored steam engine is installed on this warship?"

"Steam engine?"

Both Luffy and Usopp looked dazed and confused.

Montblanc Kulik continued to explain: "It is rumored that in the city of seven waters, the shipbuilding center on the great route, a shipbuilder developed a sea train that can use steam as power. That sea train uses The steam engine is used as the source of power. I used to think that it was just a legend when I entered the great line. I laughed it off. But then I went to the city of seven waters because of something, and I took the sea train there myself. That trip The front of the huge train can actually drive dozens of huge carriages through the power generated by the steam engine."

Hearing this, Usopp and Luffy looked at each other in disbelief.

"Using steam to generate power?"

Usopp was extremely surprised, but seemed to understand a little bit.

"Sea train?"

Luffy looked excited.

“We want to ride too!!!”

Usopp and Luffy hug each other excitedly and dance.

The orangutan also frowned, lost in thought.

"Sea train, indeed. The sea train in the City of Seven Waters used a steam engine to generate power. The steam engine burns coal to heat the water tank of the boiler, generating amazing power to drive the machinery."

The orangutan also has some understanding of the sea train in the city of seven waters.
