The Paper Fruit Among the Pirates

Aboard the Sunshine Merry,

"Yohoho~~ I miss you so much!"

"I want to sing a song for our reunion~~~"

The sound of the violin full of joy and cheerfulness echoed on the deck, making everyone feel relaxed and comfortable. ——Although part of the sound of the piano is mixed with the reason for Brooke's "soul power", but:

Whether it's words or smiles. Isn't it because of being influenced by other people that people are called "people"?

What's more, Brook's 'soul power' is a real 'heart-to-heart'.

"You really gave up on being a star, you have backbone!"

Although Franky usually gives people a "perverted" sense, in fact, he is the one who has seen the most joys and sorrows and unpredictable people in the Straw Hats. So surprised and—

gratified.

There are many people who can share adversity, but few can share wealth.

Chen Sheng, who said, "If you are rich, don't forget each other", he raised his butcher's knife in front of the folks who came to seek refuge and called him by his nickname...

"Yo ho ho, when it comes to giving up:"

Brook turned to look at Roman and Nami. In the absence of outsiders, Roman had put away the armor "White Knight" on his body and showed his true colors.

"Mr. Roman and Miss Nami, your identities in the navy are like this..."

In two years, Roman has become a well-known alternate general, and the number of pirates thrown by him into the city is no less than tens of thousands. It has reached the point where the pirates in the first half of the great route are frightened!

And Nami... or Rear Admiral An is also well-known, and the title of the Navy's "Weather Queen" has spread like wildfire, almost overshadowing her former "Weather Control".

"Don't panic,"

Roman waved his hand calmly.

"What is the relationship between Admiral 'White Dove' Roman, alternate admiral, and 'White Knight', the staff officer of my Straw Hat Regiment? As for Nami—"

"As a war orphan, isn't it normal to have a twin sister in the navy?"

"Maybe there will be some bloody love and murder dramas in the future."

Ah this...

You are a midshipman and you have the final say.

Everyone can't complain, but they don't have any other ideas. ——After all, Captain Luffy’s grandfather is also the naval hero Garp! Didn't the third generation of the sea, whose roots are so red, happily run out and become pirates?

"Super Frankie~~~!"

"Oh oh oh!!"

Franky, who was becoming less and less human, began to show various new weapons and transformations to the Straw Hats, making the eyes of Luffy, Chopper, and Usopp shine. Anyway:

"Roman, prepare to dive."

"Ok,"

The familiar Nami is in command, and the familiar Roman is at the helm. The Sunshine Melly, which had already been coated, plunged into the sea! A transparent film envelops the whole boat and straw hats like soap bubbles.

"Oooo!!!"

"This is...a stunning view!"

"It's great, no matter what kind of submarine it is, it's impossible to have such a 'skylight'."

Different from the uniform sea surface, the sea of ​​Chambord is a colorful world: all kinds of creatures are bathed in the bright and warm sea water; groups of colorful tropical fish swim past and dance in the surging waves.

"Yo ho ho ho, everyone look this way—"

As Brook pointed, there was a wonderful underwater 'forest' next to him! The roots, which are as huge as skyscrapers, go straight down, without bars or veins, like iron rods.

In this 'forest' composed of roots and hairs of the 'Alkymanmangrove' that constitutes Chambord, it is covered everywhere with vivid flowers, rockery, coral, and seaweed. All kinds of small fish and shrimps shuttle among them, attracting more fish. as well as:

"Oh, this fish looks delicious!"

Luffy, who jumped on the coating suddenly, tried to pierce his arm outside to catch the huge sea king swimming by. And Sauron next to him calmly pulled out his knife,

"Look I cut him up—"

Boom! X2

"Are you two brains sick?! What will we do if the membrane breaks!!"

Luffy and Zoro, who were hit by Chopper and Usopp so that their heads sank into the deck, fell silent.

"Hey, I really can't do anything about you."

Nami doesn't want to deal with these idiots anymore, anyway, even if the membrane of the boat is broken, she can easily get away. ——Perhaps this is the so-called daring of a high-level artist? not to mention:

"Actually, the principle of this boat membrane is the same as that of the bubbles in Shampoo."

It can be passed through by people or various objects without breaking.

"That is to say, whether it is a bullet or a sword, as long as it does not exceed the upper limit of the ship's membrane, it will not be broken."

"What, it's stronger than expected!"

"It is said that more than 70% of the ships passing through Fishman Island have sunk accidentally..."

"Mom~~"

"Ms.~~~"

"Yo ho ho ~~~"

NEW - Timid threesome embrace and cry!

"Hahaha,"

? !

"Roman, what are you laughing at?"

"It's nothing," Roman, who was at the helm, waved his hand in response to Nami's question. Because the white knight is playing the role of the alternate admiral Roman, Roman can only take the helm himself.

"This kind of daily life...is like an adventure~~"

"Adventure?"

Nami looked at the pointer on her wrist and froze for a moment.

"However, I don't know when I can reach Mermaid Island after such a slow dive?"

After the freshness of the underwater scenery passed, Usopp raised this realistic question. After all, the Sunshine Melly is a ship, not a submarine, and the speed of diving in the sea is not fast. ——The Mermaid Island is on the seabed at a depth of 10,000 meters. When will it take to arrive?

"Don't worry, there are actually 'ocean currents' in the ocean, we just need to take the 'downstream' to..."

"What is downwelling?"

Facing Luffy who was a curious baby, Nami explained to him seriously:

"The so-called 'sinking current' is because the oceans of different depths also have different water temperatures like the 'Four Seasons Island' of the great route..."

While Nami was explaining, Roman habitually entered the 'hang up' state. because:

On the warship on the sea, 'Roman' stood proudly on the bow.

"Caribou, Brother Cribb, the combined bounty of the two is 400 million Baileys."

These two 'supernovas' who had been making trouble behind the Straw Hats now fell into Roman's hands, so they were doomed to have no chance of being monsters. ——Advancing City is their only belonging, even a dragon must be coiled, and a tiger must be squatting!

After all, apart from Luffy, who was born with destiny, even a person like the Golden Lion would have to lose his legs if he wanted to escape.

And in the hands of 'Roman' or the White Knight, there is also an extra card:

Swamp Pages.

"Tsk, it's also a natural devil fruit with the attribute of 'earth'. This guy played it into a different storage space... I don't know if it is considered a talent?"

"Boss, it's just two supernovas."

The blond Polkin was wearing a brigadier's coat, looking bored at the two pirates on the deck who were handcuffed by sea stones. If it was two years ago, Supernova would have been invincible to him! but now:

"Do you need to be so careful if you rely on nature to bully ordinary people's garbage?"

The domineering thing that knocks down with one punch!

Of course it is useful, after all, this guy is also a person with 'luck'. ——Don't look at Caribou as a disheveled and wretched man, but his luck is also astonishing. Not only did he escape from Zhan Taomaru, but he also added obstacles to the Straw Hats along the way.

Although it turned out that the Straw Hats gave Mermaid Island "prestige" and treasure, Roman didn't like these things. So it was decided to let him go to prison to eat honestly.

As for the fact that this guy escaped and took some adventures, and finally ended up moving bricks at Kaido’s construction site, it can be regarded as helping Luffy a little bit...

joke!

With Roman here, how could it be possible for Luffy to fall into the habit of quitting the king?

————

"... To sum up, we will enter a downward cold sea current, so as to quickly reach Mermaid Island."

Facing Nami's long explanation, Luffy, Sauron, Usopp, and Chopper suddenly realized.

"In short, it's a very magical current." X4

! ! !

"What on earth am I wasting so much saliva for!?" Nami held her forehead helplessly, feeling like she hadn't been so speechless in two years. But this is the atmosphere that the Straw Hats should have~~

"Don't panic, just find something for them to do."

Roman calmly pointed forward.

"Come on, Straw Hat Beast Tamer Luffy!"

?

"Oh oh oh, what a huge squid~~~"

! !

"This is so possibly a squid, isn't this the 'Northern Sea Giant Monster'?!"

In front of the Sunshine Meli, a huge underwater 'waterfall' of hundreds of thousands of meters straight down under the impact of cold and hot ocean currents. This is the 'downstream current' that the Straw Hats need to ride. but:

A huge sea monster that looks exactly like an octopus+squid stands in the way.

The hundreds of meters long tentacles stretched out their teeth and claws, as huge as an island. The Sunshine Merry was as small as a toy in front of it. ——In fact, the wreckage of several pirate ships is wrapped in the tentacles of this North Sea giant monster! Obviously, the other party deliberately 'blocked the way' here. but:

"Hee hee hee, I've decided, I want to keep it as a pet!"

"What did you say?!"

Usopp is numb. Although he has made rapid progress in the past two years, but:

"Look at her body shape, and look at the 'petite' Sunshine Melly. What do you feed it, hey!"

"Hee hee hee, I want it to pull the boat for us."

"So cute~, I want to draw it down."

Ah, Robin's aesthetic...

"Oh, nice sketch."

Franky next to Robin nodded in praise, - by the way, Franky is also an excellent painter. Don't forget his identity as a designer!

"Come on, whoever wants to fight the Kraken look over here—"

It's not easy to block, Roman has already made a few bubbles taller than a person: as long as there is special oil from Shampoo, this kind of magical bubbles that can resist the high pressure of the deep sea can be easily made. As for asking why Roman would know this:

What do you think Tianlong people are wearing on their heads!

Fish tank?

wrong!

It’s the bubbles from Chambord, otherwise why would that snotty man Charles Rose pick his nose after eating...

"Put on this bubble, and you can move freely in the sea."

As the person at the helm, of course, it is impossible for Roman to leave his job and go out to play. As for the group of capable people on the boat, the one who is really not afraid of death is Luffy, the tough guy, so in the end, Luffy, Zoro, and Sanji "wear" a bubble suit and go out happily:

Beat the Kraken.

·······

"Hahaha, squid. Go ahead!"

Within a few minutes, the gigantic siren tamed by Luffy's domineering "third gear" fist held the Sunshine Melly and began to dive rapidly all the way, aiming directly at Murloc Island.

"Let me think about it..."

What's next:

One hundred thousand miscellaneous fish give away heads, Hody Jones takes drugs?

Neptune Baixing, Van der Daken?

Hmm, very good, a leisurely adventure~~
