Chapter 151

Despite Garp's declaration of intent to pursue and capture the pirates, he merely aided Luffy and departed. 

But before that Luffy, Logan, and Zoro finally have a reunion with the now change Coby, and Helmeppo.

Logan still shock seeing the wimpy kid that he and luffy rescue becoming a man, and due to the Manga that Coby had, he is now becoming a renown swordman among the rookie Marine.

Coby did mention that he will kept the Manga secret from other, even Helmeppo didn't know about it, and they have been train by Garp together, becoming fellow apprentice.

The banquet is over, and it's time for the Straw Hat Pirates to embark on a journey.

but...

When Franky looked at Going Merry carefully, he said to everyone with a serious face: "We have to change the ship!!"

Usopp suddenly shouted: "Hey, hey, hey!!! What are you talking about!"

Luffy also widened his eyes: "Are you talking about changing ships? Stop joking!"

The others also frowned, feeling very dissatisfied with Franky's words

Damn you just joined, you have such an outrageous idea!

Logan also frowned.

In the original plot, the Merry was too small to withstand the toss of the big wind and waves, so it finally stopped in the capital of Water 7.

But the current Merry is not that little one.

Today's Marry is at least twenty times the size of the original Merry.

Although it can't be compared with those super battleships, it can be regarded as a big ship .

Why does it need to be replaced?

But...he also understands Franky's personality.

He is indeed a shipwright with extraordinary talent .

Since he said that, there must be his reasons.

Immediately, Logan also looked at Franky suspiciously: "Merry is fine, why change it?"

"It can be seen that this ship was very taking care of when I saw it."

Franky rubbed his chin, looked at Going Merry, and commented seriously, "It's just that the material used for the construction should be a wood that grows in the temperate zone."

Zoro nodded: "It's indeed sorb wood."

Luffy picked her nostrils: "I seem to remember too"

Nami said seriously: "It's not that, it's the Yamanashi wood! It's the best wood around Syrup Village."

When the Going Merry was built, the three of them participated in the shipbuilding site, so they were very impressed with the Yamanashi wood.

"That kind of tree is really strong as a material, but its impact resistance is not strong. If you just do things like fishing in the sea, then this kind of wood is more than enough. But if you have to face strong winds and waves for a long time, this kind of material will not last a long time. There will be problems."

As he spoke, Franky walked to the bow of the ship and tapped the hull with his fingers one by one.

Then, he deduced: "From the sound, there are small cracks inside the hull. If I'm not wrong, the ship must have suffered some kind of strong impact before, causing the whole body of the hull to suffer damage."

At first, everyone was very angry at what Franky said just now, but now seeing Franky's professional appearance, he suddenly felt that he was not talking nonsense.

Logan immediately understood.

It seems that it was the time when the Knock up stream launch them to the sky

Although Logan had the ability of a shield at that time, he couldn't use the shield when the Knock up Stream hit the bottom of the ship.

Otherwise, the Knock up Stream be blocked by the energy barrier of the shield, and would not be able to become the driving force for the Going Merry to fly to the Skypiea.

It's just that he never expected that Merry would be hurt so much that time!!

"Ah! It's a sea current!!" Luffy opened his mouth wide, with an expression of sudden realization on his face, "At that time, we were rushed into the air at a height of 7,000 meters by the knock up Stream, the impact must have been quite large~"

"Nani??? 7000 meters?"

Franky looked at Luffy with disdain, "Stop Lying!!!"

"There is no doubt that it is true. We really reached the Skypiea at an altitude of 7,000 meters through the Knock up Stream." Logan took out a video shell, clicked it, and saw the scene of Skypiea appearing on it.

"Oh oh oh!!"

Franky's eyes lit up, "There is such a magical place!!"

"Let's talk about the Merry first~"

Logan put away the video shell.

"Okay.....Okay," Franky came back to his senses, and he continued, "Now the ship can hold on, but if it suffers from a few more waves or shelling, it will risk disintegration" .

"But..., aren't you a shipwright? Can't you solve this problem?"

Sanji asked with a heavy emotion.

Usopp also laughed and said: "Yeah!! Now that we have you, this kind of small problem should be very simple for you!!"

Franky waved his hand: "Stop joking!! I'm just simple Shipwright, but I'm not a god!! The current situation of this ship is..., what I want to say is... ,The whole ship is made of Yamanashi wood, including the keel... Do you understand?"

keel.....!!

Hearing this word, Logan suddenly felt his scalp explode!

He remember that in the original plot, the Going Merry was unable to continue sailing because of a broken keel.

Will we now have to change ships again for this reason?

For this situation, Logan was really not mentally prepared.

"Let's not listen to this!!"

"Red underpants!! Take back what you just said!!"

"The Merry is obviously fine!"

"Bastard, you did it on purpose...! Do you have to say something so outrageous to show how good you are at shipbuilding!!"

The members of the Straw Hat Pirates were unwilling to accept such a situation, and they began to criticize loudly

""

Logan sighed slightly in his heart

He understands the big guy's mood very well.

After all, if you can't solve the problem, then get rid of the person who found the problem. This is a traditional virtue...

"Is there no way to remedy it? What if it is reinforced?"

At this time, Zoro asked seriously.

It can be said that Zoro is always the one who can keep calm every time he encounters chaos.

Franky patted his head, and said with some emotion: "Since you participated in the construction process of this ship, you should understand that the only thing on the whole ship that cannot be strengthened is the keel!! Because the whole ship is built based on the keel of.

Of course Zoro understands...

It's just that it's hard for him to accept this kind of thing.

"No!!! The Merry is our crewmate, we cannot abandon it!"

Luffy's face is serious, he is very serious when he is angry...

"That's right! I firmly support Luffy's decision!!" Usopp raised his fist and expressed his opinion.

Logan pouted slightly

...

In the original plot, when Luffy made the decision to change the ship, you could become the only black spot in the history of the Straw Hat Pirates...

"There must be a way to remedy it..."

Nami's eyes are glowing red, she is also one of the people who participated in the construction of Merry, and naturally has a very deep bond with Merry.

Logan took a deep breath, and then asked: "If we continue sailing, where do you think the Merry can last?"

"If you don't suffer heavy shelling or the impact of a tsunami, the first half of the Grand Line will be fine. But if you want to enter the New World, you must pass The fishmen island below 10,000 meters below the seabed. This ship can't bear that pressure!"

Franky gave the answer.

"It can! The Merry will definitely be able to! We have all sailed such a long distance, and it will definitely be able to persist!!" Usopp didn't seem to be listening to what Franky said at all, just talking to himself.

"What to do..., Luffy?"

Zoro looked at Luffy with a heavy look on his face.

Seeing that Luffy didn't speak, he looked at Logan again: "What should I do?"

"If you are willing to listen to me, let's build the best ship in the world while we are in the capital of Water 7!! I have already inquired about the black market information of Adam Tree. The same material use to make the Pirate King Ship"

Franky started giving Amway to everyone, he looked at Luffy, "Luffy, don't you want to become the The Pirate King? Then in terms of the standard of the Pirate Ship, you must at least be on par with the previous Pirate King!!"

"If this is really the case...., then...., considering the rationality of it, it is a rational choice to change the ship."

Robin sighed.

Seeing that everyone in the Straw Hat Pirates seemed to be moved by him, Franky immediately said while the iron was hot: "I'm going to get someone to contact the black market now, as long as you can get 200 million Belly ,We can buy the best wood in the world that is going to the black market!!!"

"200 million Belly...we can afford this ."

Hearing this, Logan nodded.

Money is not a problem!!!

but...…

"But..., give us a little more time!! Merry is not just our pirate ship, in a sense, it has become our crewmate"

!"

Breathing heavily and shaking his head, Logan gritted his teeth, "Everyone is upset now, so let's not go out to sea today!!! Everyone think about it, and we will discuss this matter tomorrow."

After speaking, Logan walked towards the cabin...
