Childhood Anime Grand Tour

"Is that true? Then I'll pay for it, and you build me an airplane, how about that?"

"Hmm! Do you still need a plane?"

"Nonsense, how can flying yourself and piloting an airplane feel the same? My plane was shot down during our last battle, and it broke my heart for a long time."

"A war, with your mother-in-law?"

"Hehe! Of course, I had to contend with those four for a long time back then. If they hadn't outnumbered me, the outcome would have been uncertain!"

Liu Yufei had just finished bragging when a huge hammer hit him on the head!

"Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Charles, what are you doing?"

"Kid, I've put up with you for a long time. You're so young and already talking big. Last time you didn't even last one round before being shot down. I was even thinking of saving you! Who knew... sigh! Never mind!!"

There's really nothing to say, it's just envy, jealousy, and hatred! Last time, Liu Yufei's inferior flying machine was shattered by Dora's single shot, and his body fell to the ground.

Charles was the first to swoop down to rescue him, but unexpectedly, Liu Yufei simply spread his wings, instantly shocking Charles for a hundred years! Hehe, you didn't expect that, did you! I can fly!

"Baru!!"

Sheeta's call immediately brought Pazu back from his reverie of mechanical beauty, and Pazu went over right away.

Charles then looked at Liu Yufei and said:

"Now that we're on board, we're not here to play around. Follow me!"

"Ah! Don't worry, I can do all the dirty and hard work!"

Judging from Charles's physique, he was in charge of physical labor here. Liu Yufei followed him and soon arrived at the warehouse below.

"Damn it, why are you stockpiling so much food? Shouldn't you be stockpiling guns?"

"What, are we going to fight the army?! We're air pirates, not terrorists! Get this box upstairs first, you idiot, be careful, it's full of liquor, don't break it!!"

Even though Liu Yufei possessed immense power, Charles still treated him like a normal person, which greatly pleased Liu Yufei! He immediately scurried out with his things!

Before, whether in the forest, Ashitaka's village, or later in Tatara, Liu Yufei was always a guest. But here on the Tiger, these people treated him as a friend.

Palu didn't stay with Sheeta for long before Louis called him over. After all, he was already at her house, and it wouldn't be right to just sit around doing nothing; he had to do some work.

Walking through the narrow corridor, clothes were hanging out to dry on a rope, giving it a very homey feel. Opening the door to the control room, there were even underwear hanging inside, showing that the Sky Pirates' lives were unpretentious, well! Just a bit sloppy!

As Louis called out, a bald old man emerged from underneath, looking just like Boiler Man!

"Uncle, your assistant has arrived!"

"Don't be so loud, I can hear you. Hmm? Newbie here, come down with me!!"

The old man in the computer room seemed a bit aloof, not because of his personality, but because he was already incredibly busy. Balu, that clever kid, immediately jumped in!

The mechanics of such large spaceships are all very short because the space inside the mechanical chambers is extremely limited. Just like the final scene of "Snowpiercer," no matter how advanced mechanical technology becomes, it will ultimately require human labor for maintenance.

"Kid, you're good with your hands and feet, but what's your name?"

"Baru!!"

Balu was busy working, and his expression became extremely serious whenever he faced such machinery. The old man in the machine room didn't mind, because he was the same kind of person.

For tech geeks to gain respect, they must excel in technical skills. Balu, who worked in mines from a young age and independently developed aircraft, naturally possessed exceptional abilities.

Meanwhile, after unloading several boxes of goods, Liu Yufei was called to the studio by Grandma Dora, with Hida also present.

"Hey kid, what's your name?!"

"Ah! Liu Yufei!"

"Okay, come here. I heard you fell down with that robot. Do you know the location of Laputa?"

"Ah! I really don't know..."

When Dora heard Liu Yufei say he didn't know, she was immediately disappointed and started drawing on the paper with a ruler. Meanwhile, Sheeta was watching intently. Seeing this, Liu Yufei was really wicked!

"Hehe, Princess Sheeta, you've lost the levitation stone?"

At this point, Xida had begun to trust Liu Yufei and immediately apologized:

"I'm sorry, I also..."

"Oh dear! That's troublesome. If this thing falls into Musca's hands, we're doomed!"

"what!!"

"Princess Sheeta, Laputa has many more combat robots like the one from last night! And it would be even worse if Muska got her hands on Laputa's secret weapon—you know, one shot from that weapon could destroy a city!!"

"No, no!!"

Seeing that Sheeta was about to cry again, Liu Yufei immediately realized he had gone too far. Fortunately, Dora immediately scolded him:

"Stop arguing!! You, get out of here, don't you have anything better to do? Teasing that girl?"

Saying she was going to steal things and beat Liu Yufei, Liu Yufei was so frightened that he fled in panic, making sure to close the door behind him. At that moment, Xida said in a tearful voice:

"Mother-in-law, how could this happen?"

"Hey! You actually believed that brat?! He's never even been to Laputa, how would he know? He's just trying to scare you. Stay away from that brat from now on!!"

"He said he was my bodyguard?"

"What kind of guards are they! They're all weird and eccentric, just making fun of us. They're only slightly better than those bastards in the military!!"

The two then began to calculate the location of Laputa on scrap paper. Sheeta was an expert in this area, and by taking into account the time, the position of the moon, and the direction of the sunrise, she quickly calculated the location of Laputa.

Dora looked at Sheeta, who was talking eloquently, and a proud little expression appeared on her face, because the two of them had the same guess, and great minds think alike!

Or is Dora simply an older version of Sheeta? They're so similar in both personality and knowledge! After figuring out the result, Dora immediately started making her own conversation.

"Listen up, everyone! The Goliath is heading towards Laputa. If the wind is favorable, we'll arrive tomorrow. Whoever finds Laputa first will be rewarded with ten gold coins!"

Dora's words were undeniably inspiring, and the air pirates who were working immediately exclaimed excitedly:

Ten yuan?

"Let's all work hard!"

Charles, who was carrying the load, immediately put down the weighed goods and dropped them directly onto Liu Yufei's feet!

"Ah! You bastard... What are you doing? Ouch!!"

Liu Yufei immediately jumped up, clutching his foot, and glared angrily at Charles, who exclaimed excitedly:

"Did you hear that? Ten yuan!!"

"Ugh! Ten yuan? Just listen to that, I've eaten plenty of these kinds of flatbreads already!"

"What kind of pancake?"

"I'm just saying this to you, I won't actually keep it!!"

Liu Yufei looked like he knew everything, which angered Charles so much that he punched him on the head.

"You jerk, Mom isn't like that anymore! You carry it yourself! I'm going upstairs!!"

"Wait a minute! Can I participate in this event? Everyone gets a share!"

At this moment, Liu Yufei gradually became confused and was about to follow Charles out, but he tripped over the cargo again and fell face-first into the mud!

"Go start the engine in the back, we need to go full speed ahead!!"

"OK!!"

After saying that, he tossed Liu Yufei a folding joystick, and Liu Yufei immediately headed back. Normally, the Tiger Moon wouldn't operate at full power, so the rear propellers were in standby mode.

While things are going smoothly here, it's tough on Balu and Grandpa in the server room.

"Damn it, you'll ruin the machine if you do that! How am I supposed to fix it by myself? Come help me!!"

Baru felt as if he were back in the mine, fighting fires on all sides, the intense work causing the machinery to creak and groan in pain.

"You bastards, hurry up and tell Dora that we need to start them up one at a time, otherwise the people down below won't be able to handle it!!"

"Yes!!"

Upon receiving the order, Pazu hurriedly climbed back onto the ship and rushed into the workshop, just in time to run into Sheeta coming out!

"Hida!"

"Baru, we've found Laputa's location!!"

"Ah! That's great!!"

As she spoke, she grabbed Sheeta's hand and started spinning her around, not caring about the oil stains on their hands. Their happy expressions brought a kind smile to Dora's face. But at that moment, the entire ship trembled slightly.

Balu then remembered why he had come up here in the first place.

"Grandma, Captain, Grandpa said all the power systems need to be started up one after another!!"

As soon as the results came out, Liu Yufei ran past, with Charles chasing after him.

"You bastard, you're a useless and utterly incompetent bastard..."

For a moment, everyone was stunned, while Liu Yufei sped away and fled outside.

Didn't Charles give him the crank to start the machine? Everyone's seen a hand-cranked engine, right? That's really hard work! Liu Yufei was putting in a lot of effort. Didn't he break the crank handle?

"Charles, it's all on fire! Here's your stuff back!!"

"what is this?"

"Crank the handle!"

"asshole!!"

That's how we see this scene. After arranging everything, Dora took Sheeta back to her room.

Dora was rummaging through clothes, since Sheeta was still wearing a white robe, which made it difficult for her to move around!

The box next to her displayed various jewels and some gorgeous clothes. These were not bought by Dora, but stolen, but Dora still kept them.

It seems she still has a girlish heart. Sheeta also looked at these gorgeous clothes. Actually, these were much lower quality than the ones Muska had given her, but because of the different environments, her perspective on things was naturally different!

Hanging on the wall is a portrait of a woman with a blue headscarf, pigtails, and a knife at her waist. She stands with her hands on her hips, exuding an indescribable air of heroism. Yes, this is Dora when she was eighteen.

It's clear that Dora was an exceptionally beautiful woman in her youth, but unfortunately, time is cruel.

Sheeta will eventually become like Dora, and Pazu, needless to say, will definitely become like his master!
