Chapter 138
"Captain, you see—"
A galleon with a Pirate flag sailed behind Water 7, and the lookout noticed something unusual.
"A small sailboat without a flag?"
"It looks worn out," the leader of the 'Magic Frog' Pirates with a bounty of 45 million put down his telescope and stroked Stretch the tentacles. "Just let them go..."
"Wait, that's it?!"
On the charred shore, lay a comatose man with a long nose. Of course, that's not the point, the point is those things around him!
"Medicine chests, food, charts, seashells, and—Beli?!"
Aside from other things, the wads of banknotes instantly attracted the attention of the audience. Ship's attention! There are tens of millions if you look at it and say less! Let the devil frog captain with a pair of bulging eyes immediately order.
"Let's go, today is the right time for us to make a fortune-"
Pop,
A tall man in white armor landed on the deck from the sky, and the lifting was gorgeous After sweeping the helmet around, it was the sound of icy Xiaosha.
"Get out of here, or—"
"Kill him!"
Ping ping pong pong --
densely packed bullets Bounce the fire star on the armor, 'white knight-change' sighed.
"Isn't it bad to live?"
Dead!
The battle started, and the white armor galloping at high speed slaughtered on the deck, and there was no enemy. Even the captain of the magic frog who broke into the great route with Zoan's 'poison dart frog fruit' was soon Lying in a pool of blood.
The deadly poison of the middle man is useless to this 'Armored Knight', and after the head falls, Zoan's powerful recovery ability can only be useless.
The battle was over soon, and facing the blood-stained deck, the 'white knight' first looked around for a week, then jumped high!
"Cut!"
The huge white half-moon-shaped sword aura crashed down, splitting the entire Pirate Ship in half in an instant! Ling Lie's sword aura pressed the sea to the sides and rolled apart.
Then the turbulent waves squeezed in the middle, quickly swallowing the ship and turning it into seabed garbage.
After doing all this, the white Knight with wings behind him flew to the back of a nearby mound, sat down silently cross-legged and turned into a motionless statue again.
——————
Water 7.
"It's so heavy"
On the roof of a hotel, Luffy sat cross-legged on the eaves.
"This is the captain!"
Zoro pushed open the roof door and walked over with the handle of the knife.
"Don't get lost, Luffy."
"If you're indecisive...who else can we trust?"
"And, you now There are more important things." Zoro patted Luffy's shoulder.
"Robin is gone."
"Roman...seems a little remorseful, he thinks he was too oppressive for Usopp..."
——————
“I should have given Usopp the shells harvested by Skypiea earlier to improve the battle strength.”
In the room, Roman looked at the several tables on the table. A shell sighed. "But with Usopp's current body, if he uses a shell that is too strong, he will damage himself..."
"Anyway, it's my 'chief of staff' that didn't adjust it properly—"
p>
"no!"
Roman was interrupted by Luffy, who pushed the door and strode in.
"If it's to blame, I'm the captain!"
"Whether it's Crocodile or the long ears of thunder, I insist on fighting." Luffy looked around for a week, Nami and Chopper's eyes were red and obviously they had just cried, there was a pile of cigarette butts in the ashtray next to Sanji, and Roman held a book page and thought hard...
"If it's because of me I apologize for making everyone feel embarrassed."
Facing Luffy who took off the Straw Hat and bowed his head, everyone in the room stood up.
"You're the captain..."
"Luffy, don't-"
"But,"
Put it on After Straw Hat, Luffy looked towards the crowd seriously.
"I don't regret my decision! Maybe I will meet more and stronger enemies in the future. I just want to know that you—"
"will still support Me?"
"pu, ”
Nami was the first to laugh,
"Of course."
"Without us , you can't even pull the boat out of the dock!"
"Yes,"
Roman also seriously nodded,
"If no one If I give you advice, I can imagine the scene where you will eat all the 'jail meals' from all the enemy's homes."
"Eat all the food on the first day at sea,"
Sanji lit a cigarette and gave a contemptuous glance at some refrigerator buster.
"Then I'm hungry for the rest of the day, such a Pirate King is really"
"Oh,"
Zoro is just coldly snorted, but The slightly raised corners of his mouth undoubtedly represent affirmation.
“Luffy,”
Chopper, who wiped a handful of tears, looked towards the man who forcibly took him out to sea.
"But what about Usopp, and Miss Robin? I'm so worried about them"
"Of course—"
Luffy turned his head Come, look towards Roman with a serious face.
"Roman, come and find a way."
? ? ?
Is this when I've upgraded to a Universal Wishing Machine? !
"I..."
Looking at a room's expectant and trusting eyes, Roman had to shrugged.
"Okay, okay."
"Usopp over there, I sent a 'white Knight' to watch over there..." Roman tone barely fell, in the room There was a sound of sighed in relief, including Luffy!
Obviously, they didn't really put up with Usopp. Otherwise, those medicines, charts, Beli, etc...
"Actually, the key to this time event is that Usopp thinks it will drag us down."
"You Can't you help him think of a way? Roman." Sanji knocked on his heels, and the two 'spray shells' on the top had been mastered by him, and he could completely fly in the air for a short distance.
"I'm really considering the method, but Usopp's own physical fitness..."
Although Usopp's body is now in constant exercise after getting on the boat The quality has been greatly improved.
But unlike Luffy, Zoro, and Sanji, who were trained by famous teachers since childhood, Usopp was just an authentic ordinary people before meeting the Straw Hat group. Point out.
It's not so easy to catch up with more than ten years of time, - rather, it is not realistic to think that you want to catch up with other people's hard work for ten years after training for a long time, right?
"Of course, Usopp's potential is still very large. As long as he persists, he can also be on his own. The premise is:"
"Whether he is still willing to fight--or, with Let's fight together!"
This is the most critical point, if Usopp chooses to go back to East Blue's hometown to get married. Then Roman never said anything about battle strength enhancement.
"There is no need to discuss this issue."
Luffy pressed the Straw Hat, "Whatever Usopp chooses, I respect his decision. - Because we are forever Buddy!"
"Okay, so the second question: the Golden Merry."
? ? ?
For a moment, everyone in the room was mixed with shock and wonder.
"Actually, it's not that the Golden Merry can't be saved—"
swipe, swipe,
bang! !
Two silhouettes came galloping, one left and one right grabbed the collar and pushed Roman against the wall.
"You bastard!! Why didn't you tell me earlier??"
"Calm down,"
Facing the blue-veined Luffy and Zoro , Roman waved his hand.
"Although I say there is a way, it's not now, and it's not 100%. - You know I won't guarantee anything until it's successful."
"So, what can you do to save Merry?"
Facing the excited Luffy, Roman shook the paper in his hand: on it was a big mouth like an iron bucket.
"The 'tuning ability' of that iron jaw?"
"Yes, the 'tuntun factory' extended from Wapol's 'Munch-Munch Fruit' can A person becomes a person."
As Luffy and Zoro let go, Roman's collar automatically returns to neatness.
"In the same way, I can also use the 'Tun Tun Factory' to fuse the Golden Merry and a new ship together, thus extending the lifespan of the Golden Merry."
"Wow, that's great!! Mr. Roman"
The Chopper next to him jumped with excitement.
"Then what are you waiting for, let's go! As long as the Golden Merry is saved, Usopp also-"
"It's not that simple,"
Calm down, Zoro folded his arms,
"There must be some restrictions, right? Otherwise Roman should have said it long ago."
"Yes, there are two difficult ones. Place."
Roman stretched out two fingers, Devil Fruit is not omnipotent, not to mention his 'piracy' ability.
"First, a very good ship is needed to fuse. Otherwise, in the case of the Golden Merry, ordinary ships can't share his injuries at all."
This question , there is the Legendary material Treasure Wood Adam that Franky went to buy to solve.
"Secondly, Munch-Munch Fruit has a limit. It is beyond my ability to swallow a whole ship—even the original owner of the fruit, Wapol Wave!"
"Then Roman, you must have a solution to the problem, right?"
Faced with Luffy's question, Roman nods.
"The page itself is an extension of my 'limb', so if I can make the page bigger, I can enlarge the engulfed volume of Munch-Munch Fruit proportionally."
Those two golden pillars were swallowed in a 'chewed' state, which of course could not be used in the face of the Golden Merry. ——Not to mention whether 'chewing' will kill the 'ship spirit' of the Merry, you can't spit out a bunch of parts and assemble it slowly?
"And to do that, I need to master a skill."
"Seimei Kikan!"
"This skill needs to be learned there Here?"
Facing the serious-looking Luffy, Roman pointed to the city center, which was the direction of the Galley-La Company headquarters building.
"CP9!"
