Sailing Starts from Becoming Luffy

"Luffy, who are these two?

The three of Luffy brought Franky and Iceberg back to the shore where the Merry was located, and everyone who had already returned gathered around.

And Zoro, who heard the movement on the Merry, also jumped off the deck.

Luffy glanced at the crowd, well, no one was lost, and Robin was back.

It seems that the strength she showed in front of her made her choose to believe in herself.

This saved a lot of trouble and gave Franky and Iceberg plenty of time to build a new boat.

"These two are Franky and Mr. Iceberg, master shipbuilders who have come to build us new ships.

"Hey, boy, I haven't promised you yet! You said let's see your ship, is this the one?

Just as Luffy finished speaking, Franky jumped out to retort, and at the same time, his eyes were already looking at the Merry, which was docked on the shore.

"There's nothing special about this ship!"

Just one glance, and Franky looked disappointed.

Did he think the ship Luffy had let them see was any different? Was it just an ordinary brig?

Although the iceberg on the side did not speak, he basically agreed with Franky's words.

As an experienced shipbuilder, if a ship is good or not, if there is anything special, you can judge it by looking at it.

And the small brig in front of me, even the structure is just an old-fashioned "Caravel", and there is nothing special about it.

"Hey, is this guy really a master shipbuilder?"

Franky's tone obviously angered Sanji and others. The man in the front of the plane not only wore only a pair of briefs, but also spoke so rudely.

"Mr. Iceberg thinks so too?"

Luffy didn't care about Franky's tone, just turned his head to the iceberg and asked what the iceberg thought.

"Franky is right, there's nothing special about this ship."

Whether it's himself or Franky, this point of view is still there.

If that's the case, Iceberg doesn't think Luffy can help him build a new boat.

"You two, no matter how ordinary the Merry is, he has brought us here from East Blue, but you can't point fingers.

Sanji and Usopp were furious that they despised the Merry, even though Luffy had called.

"They were right."

Luffy calmly stopped Sanji and Usopp who wanted to continue talking.

"If this ship is anything but that, with all due respect, Mr. Luffy, it doesn't impress me to build a ship for you."

Iceberg came here with Luffy out of curiosity. He thought there would be a special ship that could make him tempted, but he didn't expect it to be such an ordinary ship.

To be honest, Bingberg was still a little disappointed, but he didn't feel angry. After all, the boat that wanted to make himself and Franky shine, it could be said that there would be basically no ships in this sea.

"The Merry was really just an ordinary brig.

Luffy's words continued, but Luffy's eyes turned to the direction of the Merry.

"Merry, come out and meet everyone!"

Luffy's words made everyone present a little confused, so, you must know that except for Iceberg and Franky, all of them have awakened the existence of Observation Haki.

But even so, no one perceives the existence of others.

But, listen to Luffy, there seems to be someone else here, and, Merry?

Could it be that Miss Kaya's housekeeper is here?

Everyone followed Luffy's line of sight, and Franky and Iceberg also looked in that direction curiously.

Could it be that the person Luffy called out now was the reason why Luffy was sure to impress him?

It turned out that the two people's guess was correct, and Franky and Bingshan were stunned the first time they saw the figure appearing.

"Well...that, hello everyone!

An illusory figure suddenly appeared (beae) on the deck of the Merry.

Although he couldn't see the specific face clearly, the words he said made people immediately understand that the person who said this was very shy at this time.

However, no one present could speak, and no one noticed his tone.

"Lu... Luffy, did I do anything wrong? Why does everyone look like this.

Although I know that my appearance will definitely surprise everyone, there is no need to exaggerate.

Merry drifted to Luffy's side a little overwhelmed, and looked at Luffy nervously.

"This is... a ship spirit?"

The first person to react was Bingshan, but from his trembling words, it could be heard that his heart was not at peace at this time.

"The spirit of the ship actually exists!"

Even with Franky's character, he couldn't help but sigh.

As a master shipbuilder who loves ships, no one will be indifferent when they see the spirit of the ship.

Unless, he's not really in love.

"Everyone just can't accept it for a while, it's okay, it's good to get familiar with it later."

Although he couldn't see Merry's face, Luffy could still feel his fear, the fear that his companions would not be able to accept him.

but……

"Oh, is it really Merry?

Usopp on the other side of Luffy recovered from the shock and looked at the illusory figure that appeared in front of him with an incredible look.

He reached out his hand and wanted to touch it, but Merry was an illusory elf, and when he didn't want to, others couldn't touch him.

So, Usopp's hand went right through Merry's body in one fell swoop.

"You... hello, Usopp."

Although still nervous, Merry politely greeted Usopp.

"Is it really Merry? But, this... what's going on?

When Merry greeted Usopp, the others also came back to their senses and looked at Merry in disbelief.

"How, Franky, Mr. Iceberg, are you interested in helping me build a new ship now?"

Luffy looked at the two who still had incredible expressions.

"If you're going to build a new ship, do you want to give up this old ship that has already given birth to the spirit of the ship?

From the perspective of Iceberg, once Luffy and the others abandoned this old ship, the ship spirit born because of them may soon disappear.

However, if they are such people, how can this ship give birth to a ship spirit?

"Hey, Luffy, is he telling the truth? Are you really going to give up the Merry?

It was the first time they met, but Usopp felt that he and Merry were already very familiar with him.

If Luffy really gave up on Merry, does it mean that Luffy left his partner.

this kind of thing... this kind of thing...

"So, I prepared a Devil Fruit for this. 35
