Navigation: The understanding is incredible, and you can understand the Eight Doors Escape at the be - #101 - Chapter 101
Chapter 101: The inhumane pirate group, Merry’s transformation begins. Nami’s worries are not unreasonable.
This ark is huge. If it appeared flying over the Capital of Seven Waters, everyone would probably watch it.
At that time, the gold on their ship will be seen by everyone, causing some people to become jealous and plot.
But Luffy wasn’t worried about this.
With their current strength, who can steal gold from them?
But there was one thing he cared about.
That is, if he wants to build a new ship next, he plans to go to Franky, and then he wants to use his incredible savvy to ask Franky to design an enlarged version of the Thousand Miles of Sunshine that he had already designed.
It is enough for the modified Merry to be stored in the dock inside.
Moreover, the wood”Treasure Tree Adam” used to build the new Thousand Miles of Sunshine has to be purchased according to the situation.
Only in this way can they create a dream ship that can carry them on their next voyage in the future.
But the most critical problem now is that he doesn’t know Franky at all.
If he went to Franky directly like this, he would definitely not trust him.
After much thought, Luffy decided to first buy back the”Treasure Tree Adam” wood needed for shipbuilding.
Once they have established trust with Franky, they can start building it directly.
After thinking about this, Luffy spoke to everyone on the boat.
“Have you heard of [Precious Tree Adam]?”
Hearing Luffy suddenly ask such a question, the others were stunned.
Only Nokigao suddenly said excitedly
“I know!”
“I saw the introduction of [Treasure Tree Adam] in a botany book.”
“The book says that there are only a few trees of this kind in the world, but its wood is extremely tough.”
“It is rumored that an island is often attacked by artillery fire, but an Adam’s tree on that island has never fallen and is growing vigorously.”
“It is a very tough and tough tree!”
The rest of the people were all amazed when they heard Nokigao’s explanation.
“Si Guoyi! There is such a powerful treasure tree!”
“There are only a few trees in the world, so this tree is so precious!”
“It can thrive even under bombardment. The vitality of this tree is so tenacious.”
When everyone was sighing, Nokigao suddenly asked Luffy out of curiosity.
“Luffy, you suddenly ask what does this kind of tree do?”
The rest of the people stopped marveling after hearing this and looked at Luffy in confusion.
Then they heard Luffy say.
“I plan to use this tree to build our next new boat!”
“Look at the Merry!”
Luffy reminded, and the others all looked at the Merry lying on the deck of Proverbs.
Then Luffy continued to say
“Although we have always protected the Merry very well”
“But even so, the Merry still left a lot of scars”
“In the future, we will encounter more enemies, experience more battles, and even experience more difficult sea areas.”
“So we must have a ship that is tough enough to help us get through these difficulties.”
Listening to Luffy’s explanation and looking at the various patches and scars on the Merry’s body, everyone agreed with Luffy’s words.
Indeed, as Luffy said, their voyage will be more difficult in the future. If it were to rely on the ordinary wood used by the Merry, it would have to be repaired frequently, and it might even be damaged. At this time, Luffy continued to speak.
“So next, we first went to Mr. Aisbagu, whom Granny Cocoluo introduced to us, to see if he could help us find this special wood.”
“By the way, if possible, let’s find another shipwright to join us!”
“By then, the new ship and the Merry will be better protected.”
Everyone became excited when they heard Luffy say that he was looking for new partners to join his team.
“It is true that there has never been a shipwright on our ship! I have always relied on Usopp’s rough craftsmanship to make repairs, and I always feel a little sorry for Merry!”
“Hello! Sanji! What did you say? I’m a sniper, so I’ve done my best to be able to do that, right?”
“Are we getting a new partner? look forward to!”
“You may not be able to find it yet, Chopper!”
“Didn’t Grandma Cocoluo say that this is the place with the best shipwright skills in the world? If we can’t find it here, then we can’t find it anywhere else, right?”
“That’s true, but you may not be able to find anyone willing to be a pirate with us.”
While everyone was discussing this matter, Luffy suddenly said
“Okay, let’s go in and take a look first!”
“This city is so big, there will always be shipwrights willing to join us.”
Hearing what Luffy said, the others said nothing more and nodded in agreement.
Nami was stunned for a moment and couldn’t help but look at Luffy and asked
“Huh? What about this spaceship?”
“What should I do if you haven’t answered me yet?”
Luffy smiled and said
“Just fly in!”
“If you leave it outside, I’m afraid you will be even more worried about leaving!”
Nami was stunned when she heard this.
If you think about it carefully, it’s true.
There is so much gold, no matter where it is, it will attract others’ attention.
If you don’t keep it by your side, you will feel uneasy.
Luffy continued
“And don’t we also need to renovate the Merry?”
“By the way, we brought the Merry in and asked them to help us renovate it.”
In fact, there is another reason why Luffy did this.
That is, the wood of”Treasure Tree Adam” is only traded in the black market.
He doesn’t know if Espagu can get this material.
If he can’t, then If they enter the city in such a swagger, the news will definitely reach Franky. With Franky’s family’s tendency to plunder pirate treasures, how can they not be tempted by this gold worth trillions?
Taking the opportunity to get to know Franky and get this kind of wood from his channel can be said to kill two birds with one stone.
After making the decision, Luffy asked Nami to restart the Proverbs and prepare to fly into the Seven Waters City. It is a water city.
Most of the streets in the city are waterways, and people mostly use a creature called Blue as a means of transportation.
And because the city has excellent security, people living here are. The residents were not afraid of pirates, and would even enthusiastically give them directions and say hello. At a certain entrance to the island, a man was riding a Blue and greeted people on a boat not far away. greeting
“Brother over there, where are you going?”
“oh?!
Backstreet!”
“Go along this waterway and turn right at the first fork of the road.”
“Hee hee…you’re welcome!”
The man responded very happily.
At this time, he suddenly heard another voice coming from behind him.
“Hello! Excuse me, do you know where Mr. Espagu is?”
Hearing this, the man looked back and replied with a smile.
“Mr. Espagu!”
“He is usually very busy!”
“If it’s not at Carrera’s headquarters, it’s at Dock No. 1!”
“The headquarters of Carrera Company is at the highest point on the island, and the No. 1 Dockyard is on Center Street… ugh ah ah……”
Halfway through the man’s words, his mouth suddenly opened. His eyes were full of shock, his expression was extremely astonished, and he said tremblingly.
“The boat…the boat is flying in the sky!”
Just when he exclaimed, the man’s jaw suddenly dropped to the ground, his eyes popped out, and his voice was extremely trembling.
“Yellow…gold! So…a lot of gold!”
After getting the answer he wanted to know, Luffy smiled and thanked the man.
“Thanks!”
Then, they flew to the island in Proverbs.
Only the man was left standing there, like a puppet.
After having the target, Nami asked Luffy how
“Where should we go first? That Carrera headquarters, or the shipyard?”
Luffy thought briefly and said
“Let’s go to the dock first! Just put the Merry there and let them help us start the renovation.”
“If Espagu is not at the dock, we will go to Carrera Company headquarters.”
Inside the Capital of Seven Waters!
In the past, the Capital of Seven Waters should have been full of people coming and going, with a constant flow, filled with all kinds of laughter and greetings.
But today, the people in the Capital of Seven Waters have become like puppets, each and every one of them. With expressions of astonishment, they all looked up at the sky in a daze, watching the huge ship above them flying slowly in the sky.
“The ship…the ship is flying in the sky?!”
“Is this true or false? How could a ship fly in the sky?”
“This is simply like a sea train, a miracle!”
While the residents of the city were shocked and sighing, someone suddenly exclaimed
“Hello! Look! There was so much… so much gold on that ship!”
Suddenly, everyone noticed the brilliant gold and looked at the huge amount of gold.
For a moment, everyone’s eyes were straight.
“How can it be?! That amount?! It’s unimaginable!”
“It’s like a dream!”
“This much gold must be worth at least 10 billion Baileys!”
“10 billion? I think it’s worth at least 5 trillion!”
“5…5 trillion?!!! this……”
Upon hearing this extremely exaggerated number, everyone was shocked and speechless.
Some people even fainted on the spot.
This number is really amazing!
At this time, someone couldn’t help but curiously asked:
“Who are the people on that ship? So rich! He must be some very powerful big shot!”
As soon as these words came out, everyone immediately paid attention to the people on the boat.
Soon, there was an exclamation from the crowd.
“It’s Straw Hat! Look, the man lying on the side of the boat looking down… That’s the super rookie big pirate Straw Hat with a bounty of 500 million beli!”
As soon as the name came out, the crowd was completely excited.
“It turned out to be the straw hat boy who became world-famous during the live broadcast a few days ago! Has he come to our capital of seven waters?”
“I watched that live broadcast! The Straw Hats are all ridiculously strong monsters! It’s so shocking!”
“I heard that the Straw Hats are extremely vicious pirates. They won’t come to cause damage to us, right?!”
“Probably not?! Don’t we still have boatmen from the Carrera Company? Each of them is ridiculously strong!”
“I take it you didn’t watch that live broadcast! Otherwise, I wouldn’t have said such stupid things at all! The boatmen of Carrera Company are probably not as good as one hand of the Straw Hats!”
“Hello! Hello! real or fake? What you said is too outrageous, right? Are the Straw Hats that powerful?”
“Even if I tell you, you won’t believe it! In short, as long as the Straw Hat Boys want to cause destruction in this city, no one can stop them.……”
“But I didn’t expect that the Straw Hats turned out to be a powerful pirate group! They are too rich! I really want that gold!”
“Who doesn’t want to?”
The news of the arrival of the Straw Hats quickly spread throughout the Capital of Seven Waters.
It made everyone panic, fearing that they would wreak havoc in the city!
However, there was another news that was spread throughout the city.
That is, the Straw Hats turned out to be a super powerful pirate group worth more than 5 trillion Baileys.
This exaggerated figure shocked everyone who heard it, and Luffy was drooling over these things! The others were still unaware that they had been immersed in searching for Dock No. 1.
Finally, after a period of flight, they found the extremely huge dock in the city center.
The door was soon filled with people.
Everyone looked at the Straw Hats with extremely passionate eyes, shocked to see him, the flying ship, and the gold that made everyone jealous. After reaching an open space in the No. 1 dock, Luffy jumped down and came to the boatmen who had already gathered together.
And he was surprised to find that Espagu was also here.
But before he could say anything, he. I was the first to hear the exclamations of Espagu and several foremen.
“What a surprise! This is my first time to see a flying ship!”
“It’s really unexpected! Even we, the foremen of the Carrera Company, have never thought that we could build a flying ship!”
“Who made this ship? How much energy does it need to drive such a huge ship into the sky?!”
“Also…the gold is too exaggerated! It’s simply impossible to take your eyes away!”
When he saw Espagu and several foremen still shocked by their spaceship and gold, Luffy couldn’t help coughing twice.
“Ahem……”
After this reminder, the few people on the opposite side came to their senses and looked at him.
And Luffy naturally knew them.
Except for Espagu, the remaining people are the hidden CP.9 organization and several unknowing foremen in Barry.
Espagu was the first to speak.
“Excuse me! We just looked at your spaceship and lost our minds!”
“Let me introduce myself, I am Espagu, the boss of Carrera Company, and the mayor of this capital of seven waters!”
“What’s the reason for you coming to our Carrera Company’s dock?”
Although he knew there were people from CP.9 opposite, Luffy didn’t mind.
He knew that these people were very serious and responsible in their work as boatmen.
He gave Cocoro’s letter of introduction to Espagu. Then he spoke
“I’m Monkey D. Luffy!”
“We were introduced here by Grandma Cocoluo.”
“I’d like to ask you to help us modify a ship.”
After that, Luffy informed Acebago and the foremen of his thoughts.
After listening to Luffy’s words, Acebago and the others were shocked again.
Foreman Barry couldn’t help complaining.
“What kind of pirate group are you?”
“You actually have two hundred of those things like the Breathing Shell that are extinct on Sky Island?!”
They build ships for the whole world, so they naturally have a lot of knowledge.
How could they not know how rare Squirt Shells are.
But who would have thought that Luffy could easily take out 200 of them.
This level of wealth brings Espagu The shock of waiting for others is no less than the 5 trillion gold they own, and each of them is secretly jealous in their hearts at this moment.
“This pirate group… is simply inhumane!”
At this time, Espagu said
“If you have 200 Breathing Shells, you can transform it into the ship you want.”
“But first, we need to take a look at your boat before we can decide on a modification plan and price!”
After that, the Merry was unloaded from the Proverbs deck.
Luffy’s request to them was to make it as light and strong as possible, and to make the hull smaller appropriately, so that it would be easier to store in the future.
In the Thousand Miles of Sunshine Shipyard, because this transformation is actually like turning the Melly into a large powerhouse, it does not require any complicated technology, and as one of the best shipwrights in the world, Espagu can do it very quickly.
The renovation plan and price were finalized, and the renovation of the Melly began immediately.
After the arrangements for the Melly were completed, Luffy said to Espagu.
“I have one more thing to ask you.”
