Spandam immediately retreated slowly, bowing and scraping like a lackey.
But when he arrived at Tom and the others, he immediately changed to a different arrogant and disdainful demeanor, urging them to start immediately.
And so, under the watchful eyes of everyone, the Sea Train "Smoking Tom" officially started!
When people saw the train actually running on the sea, they erupted in thunderous cheers.
This means that islands connected by sea trains will be able to travel to and from each other in a very short time, without having to worry about extreme weather and tsunamis.
The security of both exchanges and trade has been greatly guaranteed!
The sea train is definitely a significant event that will be recorded in history.
Even the Celestial Dragons, high and mighty, showed an intrigued expression, wanting to try riding this sea train.
"No malfunctions, the train is running smoothly, we've succeeded!"
Carter Fram was ecstatic.
Not only because he participated in building the spectacular sea train, but also because his fatherly teacher, Mr. Tom, didn't have to die.
"A truly great man should have complete confidence in the ship he builds!"
This is a phrase Tom often says, and in his view, building ships and building sea trains are the same.
But at that moment, Spandam, his eyes gleaming, once again revealed an expression of anticipation for a good show.
He wanted to see if these people would still be able to laugh after a while.
Suddenly, a warship appeared out of nowhere and brazenly headed towards the escort ship of Enies Lobby.
At present, almost everyone's attention is drawn to the departing sea train, and few people have noticed this change.
This warship was the 35th warship invented by Carter Fram, the Frankie Battleship!
It's easy to imagine what would happen after this warship attacked the escort ship of Enies Lobby.
This is the bad idea that Spandam came up with.
Frame the blame!
If mud gets into your pants, even if it's not poop, it's still poop.
Explanation, justification?
is that useful?
He is one of the officials in charge of Enies Lobby. Whether someone is black or white is entirely up to him!
Once we capture Carter Fram, are we afraid that Tom, that stupid fishman, won't submit?
Spandam already had a smug smile on his face, and he couldn't wait any longer.
But just then, a laser cannon suddenly shot out from a distance, destroying the Franky Combat Ship before it could even get close enough to get within range, blowing it to smithereens!
This huge commotion immediately attracted the attention of countless people.
Many guards sprang into action instantly, forming layers upon layers to protect the Celestial Dragons behind them.
The escort ships on Enies Lobby also went into combat mode, but they couldn't find any enemies.
Spandam's smile froze on his face.
"What's going on? Where did this laser cannon come from? Who ruined my plans?!"
He was absolutely furious!
How can he frame someone now?
Is there anything wrong with the warship that was destroyed?
What about the evidence?
Are they forcibly turning 'victims' into 'perpetrators'?
The Celestial Dragons are here, how can he lie through his teeth?
Hey!
"Which direction is the attack coming from? Get out of here and capture them!"
Spandam was furious and issued orders, wishing he could drag the other party out and tear him to pieces.
Tom and his companions, who had also noticed the Franky Battleship, looked visibly shaken.
"Fram, what exactly happened?" Iceberg asked, his face ashen.
"I don't know either, someone must have stolen my ship!" Flam hurriedly defended himself. He had just watched his Franky Battleship head straight for the ship on Enies Lobby, and he was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.
Tom looked towards the distance on the island, thinking that it must have been that person who made the move.
All of the world government's reactions were anticipated, so naturally, countermeasures were taken.
"What a relief..."
Tom couldn't believe that Spandam would go to such lengths to design the blueprints for 'Pluto'.
There are Celestial Dragons present right now, they're incredibly audacious!
But he had to admit that if the enemy's scheme succeeded, Fram would surely die unless he handed over the blueprints for 'Pluto'.
Meanwhile, Abel, who had unleashed this earth-shattering attack, had already put away the [Extremely Wicked Imperial Arm: Death Ray Crusher].
Fortunately, he had more than seven days to stay there and wait for it to recharge.
And only after he actually got his hands on it did he realize that the power of this [Extremely Wicked Imperial Arm: Death Ray Crusher] could be adjusted, but it had to be fully charged for 7 days before it could be used each time it was placed.
This means that as long as the power is adjusted properly, you can actually fire more shots.
It's like using a power level of 3 to destroy a ship; using a power level of 10 would be a waste.
After putting away his Imperial Arms, Abel immediately eliminated his presence and ran to hide somewhere else.
To be honest, he really wanted to blow up the Celestial Dragon with one shot just now.
However, considering that there would be no benefit and the consequences would be severe, he did not do so.
Chapter 316 First Draft of the New Version of the Extremely Evil Battleship Blueprints
Spandam's plot came to nothing, and because of the artillery attack, the Celestial Dragons did not attempt to take the sea train and instead left Water 7 by ship.
Because the Celestial Dragons were not attacked, the matter did not escalate.
It was just a revenge killing.
Spandam didn't even have a chance to lash out, and was instead scolded for not mentioning proper security measures.
No one dared to imagine what the consequences would have been if that shot had hit the Celestial Dragons!
I was terrified, incredibly terrified!
Afterwards, Spandam had the entire Water Seven searched several times, but he still couldn't find the person who ruined his plans.
Although he was very unwilling, he had no choice but to put it aside for the time being.
After all, obtaining the blueprints for 'Pluto' is the most important thing.
But when he went to find Tom again, full of anger, he discovered that Tom had disappeared!
The two CP agents responsible for guarding Tom were also knocked unconscious.
Spandam was absolutely furious.
Actually, this was still his fault. If he hadn't mobilized a large number of people to search all over Water Seven for the person who ruined his plans, he wouldn't have left only two agents to continue monitoring Tom.
Of course, this was also because Tom had worked diligently for ten years without causing any trouble, which made him overlook the possibility that the other party could escape.
What frustrates him even more is that he can't even issue an arrest warrant for Tom now.
Because on the day the Sea Train started operating, the World Government had already pardoned Tom's crimes in front of the Celestial Dragons, so his good deeds and bad deeds canceled each other out.
So theoretically speaking, Tom can go wherever he wants.
"Bang! Find it! Prohibit any ships from leaving the port."
"And arrest Tom's two apprentices too! They definitely know where Tom escaped to!"
However, Spandam's actions were destined to be futile.
Abel had already sent Baby-5 away by boat to wait for him on the sea.
He also instructed that no one was allowed on the deck, and that no one should know that he had taken Tom away, or else there would be big trouble.
After rescuing Tom, he used a small man-pulling rocket launcher to take Tom away through the air.
So there's no way they could find it.
Another noteworthy feature is that this mini man-pulling rocket launcher, while easily capable of ripping open the user's skull, is surprisingly powerful.
Abel was very pleased that Tom, with his enormous body, could still fly.
However, the fuel was consumed quickly, and they almost failed to reach the location to meet Baby-5.
As for the iceberg and Fram left behind, there's no need to worry. Although they'll suffer a bit, they should be safe.
Since Tom is gone, only Fram still possesses the technology to build the sea train, so unless the World Government stops using it in the future, they will definitely spare his life.
Iceberg's situation was even simpler. When CP agents came to arrest him, he directly stated that he would integrate the entire shipbuilding company in Water 7 and was willing to cooperate with the World Government to become its official shipbuilding company.
Although this pie in the sky is just a drawing, it is still very tempting.
And as Tom's disciple, he certainly has the ability and skill to do so.
Most importantly, they genuinely didn't know where the blueprints for 'Pluto' were.
Tom has already run away, so he'll definitely have it with him.
Furthermore, they didn't take either of them with them when they ran away, so is it really effective to use them to threaten someone who has already disappeared? That's highly questionable!
Before Spandam could do anything to them, he received a call from his superiors, instructing him to control his emotions and behavior, reprimanding him for his incompetence, and ordering him to return and report as soon as possible.
Clearly, someone bypassed him and reported him.
After all, many people were dissatisfied with his appointment as the head of CP5.
