One Piece Volume 37 : Tom-san Chapter 355 Spandam - Page 167 - Chapter 355 - Spandam - Page 168 - [Tom's Workers, having completed the "Sea Express"] [within the 10 years stay of sentence Tom received,] [spent the next 4 years completing 3 more lines.] People: We've got lumber from St. Poplar!!! How'd the trading go? Terrible. They treat us like dirt for not having our own resources. Steel from San Faldo's through the roof, too. The shipyards are all in the red, man! I swear, we'll make things work out next time. [Tom was waiting for the arrival of the judiciary ship] [that would decide whether he would be sentenced to death or pardoned, in three days' time.] - Page 169 - Iceburg: Everyone's happy about being able to cross the sea, but trade with the other islands isn't going too well. I wonder if the island will EVER be back to normal... Tom: Taha...!! Humans have spunk, you know. You can't assume success will be immediate, Iceburg. As long he does what he needs to, a man has the right to puff out his chest and be proud...!! Iceburg: Yeah. Tom: Huh? Man: Good afternoon, sirs. Are you Mr. Tom, the shipbuilder...? I've been looking for you. Please pardon me. Huh? - Page 170 - [Cipher Pol No.5] [Chief Officer] [Spandam] Spandam: I would like to talk with you a little bit!! I... I am Spandam from Cipher Pol Number Figghh!!! Officials: Spandam-san!! - Page 171 - Franky: Whoa!! Sorry!! I guess that gun salute hit somebody!! However. Mmmmm!! My SUPER-!!! "Battle Franky 35" returns!!! WITH A DEAD SEA MONSTER!!! Look!! Look how big it is!! That thing's got to be 100 meters long!! Iceburg: Not again. That idiot never learns...!!! - Page 172 - Iceburg: How many times do I have to keep telling you?! Stop making all these damn battleships!!! If you can't do it, I'll dismantle them FOR you!!! Franky: HEY!! No, cut it out, Dorkburg!!! Iceburg: My!! Listen Franky, this thing killed a sea monster!! Do you know how dangerous it is?!! I can't possibly fathom how you can leave dozens of these deadly ships sitting around! Franky: They're not made to fire at people!!! Iceburg: It doesn't matter what YOU would do!! You have to take responsibility for what you've CREATED, Dumbky!!! Tom-san, scold him for me!! He's ruining our company's reputation!! Tom: TAHA...!!...!!...!!... Spandam: He... hey... - Page 173 - Spandam: Wait up a minute!!! First you ought to apologize to me!!! Then I want you to listen to me!!! [CP5] Tom: A government official. Is it about the trial...? Spandam: Huh? What do you mean...? No, I don't know about that. Cocoro: Where's Tom-san? Iceburg: He's over in the brick warehouse... talking with a government guy. Span... something. Franky: Spanda something. Cocoro: Not the one from the judiciary ship... They need to learn some efficiency... - Page 174 - Tom: TAHA...!!...!!...!!... I dunno!! I don't got no such blueprints!! Spandam: Don't lie to me!! How dare you feign ignorance to my polite requests!!! I've traced it all the way back to Water Seven!! Just a bit of combing will no doubt produce conclusive results!! Tom: Tahaha, but do you have the right to investigate me? Spandam: You'd better believe I do, Tom!! I even know you're a criminal for building Gold Roger's ship!! I have every right to apprehend a criminal such as yourself!!! Tom: The government knew about that a long time ago. Spandam: What?! Impossible!! Then why are you here building ships, instead of in prison?!! Tom: I'm sure an agent like you can figure that out by yourself! Bye. Spandam: Oof! Hey, wait!! We're not done yet!! Who do you think I am?!! - Page 175 - Bartender: Oh... yes, Tom made a deal with the judiciary ship... In the trial three days from now, they'll probably pardon his crimes... Tom is a great man...!! Spandam: ...what?!! An enormous crime related to Gold Roger, PARDONED?!! This must be a joke! <
