Chapter 485: Going to Sea
White clouds are floating in the sky, and the wind and waves are surging on the sea.
On the endless sea, a special sailing ship is sailing quickly.
"Great! I can finally take this kind of transportation that won't cause me fainting! Laxus, how did you get it?"
Natsu took Habi back and forth on the boat, feeling the sea breeze on his face and feeling comfortable all over.
On the deck beside him, Laxus was sitting on his custom-made sofa chair, squinting at Natsu who was running around like a fool, his face full of depression.
He didn't expect that Erza would actually see through his thoughts, and even drag Natsu and his gang along with him to board his ship.
Who is this?!
"This is a specially customized sailboat considering that the Dragon Slayer Mage will be stunned by the characteristics of transportation."
Philide explained to Wendy, who was also puzzled and looking at him with wide eyes. Then he did not forget to add, "I bought it from Kira."
This boat was indeed bought from Kira, but he was not actually involved in manufacturing it, he was only responsible for sales. This was his consciousness as a businessman, he only engaged in trading, not production.
"I see!"
Wendy suddenly realized something, but then she suddenly realized something, 'Could it be that a second-generation dragon slayer like Laxus can also faint on vehicles?!'
Thinking of this, the little girl was secretly amazed. She used to think that Laxus had no weaknesses...
"It's so noisy..."
Laxus stared at Natsu arrogantly, then turned to Erza who was sitting next to him, "Why should you bring them with you? The fewer people who know about this kind of thing, the better?"
Erza crossed her arms and crossed her legs, without any embarrassment: "That's true, but we have to consider the factor of combat power. That's why I have to drag Natsu and others with me. Aren't you also bringing me with you?"
Thunder Gods?"
"That's when I need them to sail the boat!"
Duplicity!
This kind of arrogant denial, Erza always heard it in one ear and out the other, and continued: "According to Gildarts, the president and the others are not negotiating to stop the war, but are trying to stop the war."
Visiting old friends, traveling to the Albarez Empire under the guise of business, trade and tourism.”
"This operation is very important. We must not disturb their plans, so it is best to pretend to be tourists. The lower the impact, the better!"
"..."
Do you want to listen to what you are saying? You say that the lower the impact, the better, and then you bring Natsu and Gray, the two most trouble-making guys, with you?
Laxus looked at Erza in disbelief and found that she looked serious and was not telling a cold joke. He suddenly felt like he was struck by lightning in his mind.
How much does this woman misunderstand her team?!!
…
Fairy Tail, Guild Tavern.
Snap!!
Gildas slapped his face, feeling annoyed: "That's so careless! I should have guessed that these guys can't stand it!!"
After saying that, he turned to look at Kana, who had been pestering him to drink since an hour ago. Her face was already flushed, and she had not forgotten to slyly raise her glass to him. He didn't know what to say for a moment.
The emotions that filled my heart and lungs finally turned into a helpless sigh: "What a cheat..."
"Come on, come on...keep drinking! Drink!!"
Breathe in... exhale...
Gildas tried hard to suppress his restless blood pressure, all he could think about was: This is his daughter, he cannot be angry with her!
The president and Kira dare to go because they are strong enough, and there are even two dragons among them, but what do Laxus and Erza have? Auras?
How dare a group of brats who can't even beat me go out to sea like this? They have no idea! Who taught this lawless character?!
"Hey! Now I can only hope that they are okay..."
…
In this world, there are currently four known continents, and three are closely related to the Kingdom of Fiore, namely Kirtina in the north, Alakitasia in the west, and Ishgar to which it belongs.
The Kingdom of Fiore is offshore and faces the other two continents across the sea.
Because there is abundant magic power in this world, compared to the equally famous hunters, knights, and magicians, the profession has become very powerful and almost accounts for the main combat power of the continent. Therefore, at first glance, the three continents are very similar.
culture.
But only those who have been to other continents know that their cultures are very different, such as place names.
In Ishgar, most cities are named after flowers and plants, which means that the people here are full of enthusiasm for life; Kirtina is more accustomed to naming them after food, because there is more emphasis on
diet.
As for Arakitasia, since it has been continuously baptized by wars over the past hundreds of years, most of its city names come from wars and military affairs.
In the southeastern corner of the continent, there is an offshore city called Serisile. The name comes from the king of the Magic Kingdom who occupied this place hundreds of years ago. Although it was only a small country and was annexed by other kingdoms not long after its establishment.
But the name remained.
After years of changes, the city was incorporated into the territory of the Albarez Empire and became one of the important trading ports of this magical empire.
Today, a strange-looking merchant ship sailed into the city's port.
"What is this?"
"It looks like a ship...but such a ship can actually sail on the sea..."
People in the port all looked at the sailboat in front of them in surprise. This ship was different from the ships they usually saw. The biggest difference was that ordinary ships were made of wood, but the ship in front of them was made of something that looked like steel.
Made of the same metal.
Due to the constraints of magic, the traditional technology in the Fairy Tail world has not yet advanced to the level of using iron ships for navigation, so such a ship has subverted the imagination of these locals.
"Can a ship made of iron sail? How? Can it not sink?"
"Probably using magic..."
"Don't be kidding! Although I don't know magic, I also know that to support such a ship sailing on the sea, the magic required is unimaginable!"
Kira stood at the bow of the ship, quietly listening to the conversation of the sailors, feeling the shock and admiration coming from their eyes and mouths. As a (self-proclaimed) captain, he felt proud and couldn't help but feel extremely proud in his heart.
Look! This is my uncle’s boat!
On this ship, he is the captain and ship's doctor, Mavis is the chief of staff, Precito is the navigator, Makarov is the deputy captain, Silver is the shipwright and sniper, and Kurnuki is the lookout.
Also serving as mounts, Disper and Gerard are the combatants, while Urrutia and Selene are responsible for pinching the waist and legs, and serving tea and water.
From now on, I will rely on it to navigate the great waterways, conquer the new world, overthrow the Celestial Dragons, find the great secret treasure, become the Pirate King, and reach the pinnacle of life!
Just thinking about it makes me feel happy...suck--!
Urrutia, who was standing next to Kira, quickly noticed something strange about him and asked curiously: "What are you looking at?"
"New Era!"
"..."
Kira curled her lips, smiled evilly, and felt happy in her heart: This answer is really cool!! This girl must be obsessed with me, right? But it's a pity, I am the man you can't even dream of! I am the uncle
My heart belongs only to magic and freedom!!
Urrutia: What's wrong with this guy?
"How's it going? Isn't my boat great?" Silver suddenly came over and asked.
The iron ship Kira and others are now riding on is his work.
Even though the other party was a machine race, Kira could still feel the pride in Silver's heart. It felt like a parent showing off their child to others.
"It's my boat now! Please watch your lines, Mr. Boatman!"
"Okay, Captain Kira!"
Silver responded cooperatively, and then stretched out his hand to Kira, "Captain, please pay for the ship maintenance this month."
Kira suddenly felt dissatisfied, frowned, and said sternly: "Wouldn't it be better to go to the finance department for this kind of thing?!"
Silver stood quietly, looking at Kira expressionlessly.
One second...two seconds...half a minute passed...
"What are you still doing here? I have no money!"
Chapter completed!
