One Piece: God Killer

"I don't know what that means."

"An ordinary person has no sin in the first place, but if he possesses a precious gem, he will be coveted. Now, Mr. Tom, you have no sin, but if you treasure Pluto's drawings, you will be framed by the world government."

really!

It's Hades!

How did he know? How could he possibly know such a thing?

Tom's expression twitched slightly, and he was indescribably shocked. He finally adjusted his mentality, controlled his expression, and pretended not to know anything.

"I do not understand what you are saying."

Of course, Tom's inner changes could not escape Profik's perception, and he said:

"You don't need to deny this. The location of Pluto's design is a revelation given to me by God. There is absolutely nothing wrong with it."

Tom said nothing and stood silent. If an ordinary pirate came to him to talk about Hades, the shipwright would not care, or even kill him directly. But the person in front of him is the Shichibukai, a great pirate recognized by the World Government, and his strength is absolutely the same.

Tom is very strong, so strong that he can lift a huge warship with one hand, but he is not confident in defeating Profic.

But he was also prepared. If the other party really wanted to take it away, he would use his life to protect the most precious drawings of Pluto.

"Don't worry, I can't guarantee that I'm not interested in 'Pluto', but I can be sure that I'm not interested in robbing other people's things. You can rest assured in this regard."

Tom responded with still silence.

He would never admit Pluto's design drawings or anything like that. No matter whether the person asking was Profic or Spandam, or even if King Neptune asked in person, he could never admit that Pluto's design was in his hands.

As for Profik's statement that he wasn't interested in Hades, Tom didn't believe it.

If you don't want to get the blueprints of Pluto, what are you doing now?

"Mr. Tom, I will not snatch your Pluto drawings, but that does not mean that others are not interested. The World Government and the Five Old Stars pay more attention to ancient weapons than you imagine. If they learn that Pluto may be in the Capital of Seven Waters, they will definitely I will find a way to capture it. At that time, not only you, but the entire Capital of Seven Waters may be in danger."

Profik's words moved Tom's heart, "What exactly do you want to say?"

"If I were an agent of the World Government, I would definitely find an opportunity to frame you, then torture and interrogate you, and take the opportunity to find out the whereabouts of Pluto. In this way, even if the World Government cannot obtain 'Pluto' in the end, your life will be in danger . What will you do then?"

"I think you might as well listen to my solution..."

Profik walked to Tom's side, leaned over and whispered his suggestion.

There is really nothing complicated about his plan, that is, if someone takes action against Tom by framing him, Tom can use the credit for building the sea train to offset this crime.

In this way, Tom will be acquitted of one crime, but he will be sentenced to death for providing help to the Pirate King.

At this point, Tom can say that he is Profic's subordinate. Joining the command of the King Shichibukai can cancel out all the previous crimes. Tom's ship building for the Roger Pirates happened ten years ago, of course before becoming Profik's subordinate. Therefore, this crime cannot be prosecuted.

In this way, Tom is no longer a sinner. As long as there is no direct evidence, the World Government, at least in the original work, Spandam, who directly caused Tom's death, would not dare to directly attack Tom.

As for whether the name of King Shichibukai can protect Tom, Profic is not worried. Didn't you know that even O'Hara's orphan, Nicole Robin, who can decipher "ancient texts", can be protected by the Sand Crocodile? For him to protect a Tom who did no real harm and made great contributions to the Capital of Seven Waters was really nothing.

Protecting Tom can be regarded as a reward for his willingness to provide sea train technology!

Of course, Profik is not without selfish motives. Since you have ripped off my tiger skin, even if it is only in name, you can't help me in the future, right? For example, it wouldn't be too much to help with the construction of the Wano Country Shipyard and the Maritime Train, right? It is not impossible to even directly let Tom join "Breaking Dawn" one day in the future.

Although Tom remained silent and expressionless throughout the whole process, Profic could feel that the fishman was not at peace in his heart.

Regardless of whether he admits it or not, it is an indisputable fact that Pluto's design is in his hands. With the World Government's style, it's not impossible to cause trouble for him. Therefore, Tom began to consider over and over again in his heart whether the plan mentioned by Profik was feasible.

If it is feasible, it can be regarded as a countermeasure...

"Mr. Tom, listen to my advice. If you really don't want anyone to get Pluto's blueprints, you might as well destroy him completely. Things like that are not worth your life. Your technology and sea train The contribution it can make to the entire 'humanity' is much more important than a so-called ancient weapon."

This is not a polite statement from Profik, but his true thoughts.

The so-called ancient weapons are just mythical rumors. Even if they are really powerful, it is still unknown whether they can be produced with existing technology and how effective they will be.

Tom's sea train technology is truly the only technology in the world, and it can bring great benefits to a country. Just imagine that if all the islands in the world can be connected by sea trains in the future, the flow of materials, trade, and people will be greatly improved, and the lives of people everywhere will undergo earth-shaking changes.

Thinking about this situation makes people feel very excited.

People in One Piece have a common problem. They take the so-called "history" and "mission" too seriously and ignore the potential that people currently have to change the world. Roger is like this, Oden is like this, Fish-Man Island is like this, and even the Celestial Dragons and the World Government are like this to some extent.

Profic was really afraid that Tom would be like this.

If Tom really risked his life for a blueprint, it wouldn't be worth it.

"In addition, I have another request..." Profik turned and walked to the door. Before going out, he said to Tom, "I hope to attend the ribbon-cutting ceremony of the Seven Waters Capital Sea Train."

"Okay, I promise you."

Tom nodded and agreed to this request, which seemed completely unrelated to the previous topic.

Profik waved his hand and pushed the door open.
