Chapter 414 Blitzcrank and Merry

"Dad, the blood of the Dark Dark Fruit user. I think the ability of his fruit is quite complex. It should be useful."

When Leliana returned to Piltover, there was a large syringe next to her, which was full of blood drawn from Blackbeard.

"I have dealt with the island. The casualties were not large, but the property losses were not small. Spandam from the World Government signed an agreement and received a huge amount of compensation. I gave the person to them."

"Is that so? It was handled well. Let's do it. You can help me take the blood sample to the laboratory later.

It can be used."

"Should I put it with Blitzcrank?"

"You can give it to Fran or Zack. They are both in the laboratory. Blitzcrank went out on a field trip before and has not returned yet."

"I see. See you at lunch time later."

Leliana left here again with the tube of blood. She was not curious about what Blitzcrank was doing. As the first robot made by Orlan, Blitzcrank's data has the function of instant upload.

It is not a simple data backup, but when the machine senses the crisis of being destroyed, Blitzcrank can achieve data consciousness separation and return to the backup body in the form of code.

At that time, the core can be recovered from the abandoned body, and the problem of reconstruction can be solved.

Blitzcrank went to the branch of Water Seven to solve some material problems and deal with some other things there.

Not long ago, Water Seven, the Straw Hat Pirates arrived here after a difficult voyage.

The battle with Crocodile made Luffy a pirate with a bounty of 100 million, which has reached the threshold of supernova. Although he did not experience the Judicial Island incident, Luffy is still getting stronger under the training of Tekkap.

The bloody battle with Crocodile also made Luffy realize that he needs to become stronger, and he is growing along the way.

Although he lost the ship's doctor, cook, and archaeologist, he also gained a female swordsman and a transvestite.

The swordswoman refers to Kuina, and the shemale refers to Von Clay. After the Battle of Alabasta, Von Clay and the Straw Hat Pirates developed their own bond, leaving the Baroque Workshop and joining the Straw Hat Pirates.

The impact caused by the personnel change is still within the acceptable range, but when sailing here, the Merry could no longer hold on.

"It's hopeless! Don't you guys understand?! There is basically no one on this island with better shipbuilding technology than me.

Although I can't treat people, I know ships better than any of you! It's a miracle that this ship can be repaired and come to this day!

Look at the keel of this ship. Now it depends on these broken planks and nails to hold on. Another tsunami will directly bury it in the sea!"

The Merry was lifted up by special lifting equipment, and Franky gave it a comprehensive inspection. Franky is no longer the owner of Franky's House, but runs the Carrera Company in the Seven Waters City with Iceberg.

Although Franky was in charge of the dismantling department within Carrera Company, no one could deny his shipbuilding skills.

In fact, it was not Franky who received them at the beginning, but just an ordinary employee.

The Straw Hat Pirates participated in the war between the Sky Islanders and the Shandians when they were in Sky Island before, and they made their own contributions to the armistice agreement and also obtained some treasures, so they had sufficient funds.

But when they came here to repair the ship with full confidence, they got the death sentence for the Merry.

After sailing all the way, they already had their own feelings for the Merry, so they were naturally reluctant to give up the ship, and finally caused some small disturbances here like the medical disturbance.

The boatman also appreciated these people who had deep feelings for the ship, and finally Franky came over after hearing the news.

Originally, he wanted to rescue the ship again, but it seemed that it could not be saved.

"We have money, isn't 300 million berries enough?!"

"It's not about money, Long Nose! With 300 million berries, I can build you a great new ship,

a new ship that can sail on the Grand Line!

But this ship... has reached its limit, do you really want it to sail until it sinks?

Even if you barely repair it, it won't last until the next island, so give it a decent exit.

This is my business card, if you want to build a new ship, come to me."

Among the Straw Hat Pirates, Usopp is undoubtedly the one who has the deepest feelings for the ship. He was the one who repaired the ship all the way. If he gives up now, it's no different from abandoning his partners.

"Hey, Usopp, that's enough, everyone said so, it seems that the Merry can only accompany us here."

Luffy pressed his hat and reached out to hold Usopp who still wanted to argue.

"What do you mean by 'everyone said so'! There are people who laughed at you along the way and said you can never become the Pirate King! Are you going to give up just because of this?!"

Usopp pushed Luffy away and ran to the streets of Water 7 in tears, disappearing in the crowd.

"Usopp! Where are you going?!"

"Zoro, don't make trouble anymore, let him calm down, he will come back when he calms down.

Zoro wanted to bring Usopp back, but Kuina stopped him.

She understood Usopp's feelings for the ship, but Usopp would not get lost. He would come back naturally when he came to his senses. If Zoro went to look for him, it was really uncertain what would happen.

Letting such a person with a poor sense of direction get lost here would be a huge undertaking for them.

Kuina's guess was not wrong. In the evening, Usopp returned to their gathering place, and Luffy also expressed his decision.

Let the Merry rest here and prepare a new ship to continue sailing.

"What are you talking about..."

"I've made it very clear, Usopp, Merry can no longer accompany us."

"That's our partner! Partner!"

The money of the Straw Hat Pirates is now managed by Nami. Although she is a money-grubber, she is willing to spend money when it is time. For example, when it comes to repairing the Merry, she does not show any tendency to be a money-grubber.

Although Luffy can usually be the "idiot" of the Straw Hat Pirates, he still has the right to make decisions on the ship when he issues the captain's order.

Since Luffy has decided this, the money will be used on the new ship.

This also led to Usopp having no money to repair the ship, and finally challenged Luffy to a duel to decide who would own the Merry.

The fighting power of the two was very different. Even GOD Usopp two years later was definitely not Luffy's opponent now.

However, after Usopp was defeated, Luffy and others just moved the luggage out of the Merry, and then handed the Merry to Usopp.

Usopp used the little pocket money he had left to buy some cheap materials, plus the usable parts picked up from the garbage dump, and came to the dock where the Merry was docked alone and began to repair it.

At this time, the lights in the office and the dock in Carrera Company had been turned off, and the workers had already gone home to rest. Only a few people were still patrolling here, such as Franky.

He often lived here and would never go back. After being attracted by the noise, he came to the dock.

"Long Nose, what are you doing? Didn't I say that this ship is already beyond saving? Don't waste time, you are just doing useless work."

Franky held Usopp's collar and came to the bottom of the Merry, pointing to the keel and said: "This is the lifeblood of the ship. Wooden ships are made of suitable trees. In this way, you still..."

"I know, I know everything you said! I have been repairing Merry all the way, how could I not know what you said!

But I am not willing to give up! I saw a shadow repairing Merry before, but it disappeared when I turned around...

It must be Merry! Even Merry is still insisting, how can I give up on it!"

Usopp didn't know where he got the strength, and pushed Franky away. Now Franky was not injured by the collision when his flesh body intercepted the sea train, and he transformed himself into a semi-cyborg.

But he has also done a lot of prosthetic surgeries and implanted a lot of enhanced parts in his body.

He still has a lot of external weapons, but he didn't carry them. It can be said that most of his salary over the years has been spent on this.

In Usopp's case, he had no possibility of pushing Franky, but Franky was just stunned by Usopp's words.

"Ship spirit..."

"What ship spirit?"

"Ship spirit is a spirit that is created when the crew members love each other and cherish the ship. It is said that a ship with a ship spirit is like a person... You are really a good group of partners."

"Then are you willing to help us repair the ship?!"

"Idiot, I have said it many times, this ship is no longer save! I admire you for giving birth to a ship spirit, but this cannot change the objective facts.

But if you want to save this ship... there is indeed another way, kid, you have 300 million Baileys, right?"

"Yes, what are you going to do?"

"300 million, maybe I can ask that person to help. If it is that person, he is indeed capable of saving this ship. It depends on whether you are willing to do it.

You are lucky. If you were a few days earlier or later, you would not have this opportunity."

"You wait!"

At this time, Usopp was like a drowning man, desperately grasping every straw to save his life, without distinguishing whether Franky's words were true or false, and hurried to find Luffy and the others.

When he saw Luffy again, he knelt down and apologized for his previous mistakes, and told them what Franky said.

Seeing that Usopp had apologized, Zoro didn't say anything, but just waited for Luffy's response silently.

"What are you talking about? We are companions, but you said there is a way to save Merry, what do you mean?"

Under the leadership of Usopp, they met Franky again. After confirming their purpose, Franky made a phone call directly.

It was not to shake people, but to smooth the relationship. After getting a positive answer, he took Luffy and others to another dock, where there was a ship that had not been built yet.

"What is this?"

"This is the 'Franky Super Invincible General' I built! The whole body is made of the rare treasure tree Adam. Although it is not yet completed, I believe this will be the best ship in the world!"

This is where another part of Franky's salary goes. He has never given up on shipbuilding.

"Are you looking for me? ! Is this your way to save Merry?"

"Don't worry, listen to me. Have you heard of the 'Ship of Theseus'? If all the parts of a ship are replaced, will it still be the same ship?"

"this...""

"Your ship has reached its limit. No one can change this. If you want it to continue sailing, you have to make changes, and this person can just replace it with new ones without damaging the hull.

I asked my teacher for this opportunity. "

Franky did not let the Straw Hats answer his question, but gave the answer on his own, and then led them forward, where a huge yellow robot was waiting for them.

"Mr. Blitz, I am Carter Frame, Mr. Tom's disciple."

"I remember you, Tom, telling me that too."

"This Mr. Blitz can... what are you doing?!!!!'

Franky was just about to introduce Blitzcrank to them when he noticed that Luffy suddenly ran up to Blitzcrank, looking at him curiously like a child who saw a new toy, and even wanted to climb up and take a closer look.

Seeing that Luffy was about to do something disrespectful, Franky's eyes almost popped out of his head and he hurried up to stop Luffy.

"So cool! What a big fist, what a handsome robot! Don't stop me, let me touch it!"

"Shut up!"

Under Nami's absolutely powerful "Haki Fist", Luffy became more honest, but his eyes were still wandering around Blitzcrank.

Blitzcrank was the one Franky was talking about, and this was the only way Franky could think of to save the Merry. For this, he even used his teacher's network to meet Blitzcrank, who happened to be on a business trip. tz.

After all, Tom has worked hard and done a lot for Piltover over the years, so he still has some shortcomings.

"Mr. Blitz, I'm sorry, these guys are a little confused. This is the design, please take a look."

"It's okay, Blitzcrank likes his compliments, let's get started."

The next moment, countless little stars popped out of Luffy's eyes because Blitzcrank transformed in front of him.

Using the ability to swallow fruits, Blitzcrank ate "himself" and took the opportunity to reshape his body structure.

It turned into a huge Tuntun factory, and along the conveyor belt, the Melly and Franky's semi-finished products were sent into Blitzcrank's body.

With the sound of a machine running, the Merry, which had grown several times larger, was brought out again. At this time, it looked completely new. All the damaged parts of its body had been repaired, and the interior was also designed according to Franky's design. reorganized.

The Sunshine was not born, and was replaced by the new Merry, which may also be called the Sunshine Merry.
