Chapter 215 Meili evolves! (6k, please subscribe~)

"Dark fruit?"

"It can plunder the abilities of people with abilities, and it can also allow you to have multiple fruit abilities at the same time!?"

"There is such a powerful fruit ability in the world!?"

Following a report from World Economic News, the eyes of countless powerful people around the world were instantly mobilized, focusing on the name [Marshall D. Teach].

…

…

"Jie hahahaha... So this is your power, Teach!"

"You really have eaten up all the limelight this time!"

Thousands of meters above the blue sky, dozens of small islands magically hover in mid-air, connected to each other through graceful waterways, forming a magnificent natural wonder.

Among them, in the middle and largest sky island, there is a huge palace with gold as the main color, which stands tall and majestic.

The golden lion sat on the throne in the main hall of the palace, looking at the black beard next to him with a half-joking, half-suspicious look.

After all, it was mentioned in the newspaper that the second fruit ability Blackbeard wanted to plunder was his Piao Piao Fruit ability!

Recalling the greedy look in Blackbeard's eyes when he and Blackbeard first met, Golden Lion was very sure...

Even if the content in this newspaper is biased, it is definitely not a nonsense report.

"a ha ha ha……"

A look of embarrassment suddenly flashed across Blackbeard's face as he was stared at by the golden lion.

However, Blackbeard, who is the best actor in One Piece, grasped his emotions instantly and came to the Golden Lion with a glass of soju. After maintaining a safe and polite distance, he poured the wine into him and said:

"Senior Shi Ji, can't you listen to the slander from outside?!"

"The two of us are partners who hit it off immediately!"

"Have you forgotten the tacit cooperation we had when we were killing everyone in Impel Down City!?"

"Um……"

Looking at the natural-looking black beard in front of him, the golden lion immediately groaned and picked up the wine glass in front of him.

All of a sudden!

He met Blackbeard's eyes, who just raised his head.

The two looked at each other and smiled, saying nothing.

Although a mere report exposed many secrets of Blackbeard, it also made Golden Lion more wary of him.

But who can become a legend without a bit of arrogance in his heart.

At least in the Golden Lion's view, the benefits Blackbeard can bring to him far outweigh the dangers he poses.

Blackbeard also needs the Golden Lion to provide a safe place and use his status as a legendary pirate to endorse himself, so that he can secretly recruit the criminals he values ​​​​under his command.

Because this time they were cooperating with Golden Lion, they used the special technology provided by Indygo to briefly cut off the communication equipment of Impel City, and then cleared the entire Impel City as quickly as possible.

With the combined efforts of the two of them, not even Magellan's poison could stop him at all.

In the end, the Golden Lion directly waved his hand and relied on the absolute convenience of the Piao Piao Fruit to bring all the criminals who were willing to leave with them on the third floor of the Push City back to their own Sky Island territory.

Generally speaking, the contents of this newspaper did not affect the cooperative relationship between the two people too much, except for making Golden Lion more wary of Blackbeard.

Even after learning that Blackbeard's dark power could rob others of their fruits, the Golden Lion valued this dangerous partner even more!

…

…

Time passes quickly.

In the blink of an eye, several days have passed since Red revealed Blackbeard's abilities.

I don’t know if it’s because of the recent big news that has broken out one after another, so that this report about the Dark Fruit, except for the concern of a few concerned people, did not cause too many waves in the world.

But at least...

The goal that Chihong wanted to achieve has been successfully achieved!

…

…

"A pirate who was once imprisoned in Impel Down appeared in the West Sea, knocked out a fruit user and took him away!?"

"I didn't expect the golden lion's endurance to be even lower than I thought!"

"Is it because you know you don't have long to live?"

In Labu's abdominal world, Chi Hong, who had just finished plowing the land for Usopp, received the information sent back from members of the [Akatsuki] organization, and the corners of his mouth suddenly raised slightly.

As the saying goes, when you find a cockroach at home, it means that there is already a group of cockroaches in your home.

Now that the Impel City pirates can be seen, it means that Golden Lion and the others have already begun to move on a large scale.

"Xihai..." A flash of light flashed in his red eyes, and he immediately said directly to Xiao on the other side of the phone:

"Distribute this information to the black market, and then continue to observe the movements there."

"The Navy and the World Government have suffered setbacks one after another recently, and their ability to rule the sea has been greatly reduced..."

"At this time, it is a great opportunity for all kinds of demons and monsters to come out of their caves."

“I just don’t know who will be the one favored by the sea in the end?”

"What do you think, Luffy?"

Chi Hong suddenly tilted his head and looked at Luffy who was eating so much next to him.

Instead, Luffy got a confused look on his face: "What are you talking about, Red? You're babbling..."

"If you don't start it, Sanji's food will get cold!"

"Hey, hey, hey~" Looking at the captain who only knew how to eat, Chi Hong suddenly smiled helplessly.

He racked his brains to help Luffy suppress his future competitors, but this guy only had food and food on his mind...

He has paid so much for this family!

…

…

"This day has finally arrived!!!"

In the largest dock in the Capital of Seven Waters, everyone in the Straw Hats stood excitedly next to a huge curtain, their eyes shining with anticipation.

At the same time, a group of elite shipwrights from Carrera Shipbuilding Company slowly left the scene.

Although they were short of manpower, Bingshan also allowed them to participate in part of the Meili's transformation work...

But for the truly core secret areas, they were all created by the joint efforts of Franky and Bingshan.

"You guys got here really fast!"

Franky, who was standing on both sides of the curtain with Bingshan, saw the people in straw hats, and an excited smile suddenly appeared on his face.

Obviously, at this time, he was also very much looking forward to the moment when the new Merry was unveiled in front of the Straw Hats.

Frankie couldn't wait and grinned directly. His moving body made a sound like metal friction, and he glanced at everyone.

A smart look moistened his eyes.

"I have to admit, you are really a group of pirates that can bring about miracles!"

"I never thought that in this era, someone would be able to reproduce the [Ancient Weapon Pluto]..."

"But now, you have truly accomplished this!"

"It's an honor to be invited to be the modifier of this battleship!"

"The Straw Hat Pirates!!!"

Frankie and Bingshan suddenly put their hands on the heavy curtain.

The next second, the two of them worked together.

"If one day in the future, you become the pirate king and conquer this sea..."

"Get aboard this battleship that belongs to the king!!!"

Swish——

The huge curtain fell instantly.

In an instant, a bright golden light shone in front of Luffy and the others.

Direct sunlight like a spotlight shines on this brand new ship.

The first thing that caught everyone's eyes was the bow of the King Meili's ship, glowing with brilliant light!

The certificate of kingship from the Pokémon world was embedded on the bow of the ship by Franky and Iceberg in a special way.

Although the entire hull is still mainly made of wooden structure, it has a special layer of metal ripples.

This is a special material specially developed by Wapol for the Mellie. It not only has the lightness and toughness of a wooden structure, but also has the hardness and durability of metal.

Even Bingshan and Franky, who have made great achievements in the field of shipbuilding, couldn't help but look at Wapol with eager eyes when they saw this brand-new material.

It's a pity that this material is extremely expensive, so only the wealthy Straw Hat Pirates are qualified to use it as the main material of the ship.

And this also made Meili exude the aura of a high-ranking person at this time.

However, in the eyes of the Straw Hats, this aura was quiet and peaceful, which made them feel at ease.

In addition to changes in appearance, for the Straw Hats, the biggest change in Merry at this time is her body shape!

The Meili, which was originally only a light sailing ship, has been successfully expanded into a large four-masted sailing ship under the transformation of Bingshan and Franky!

The volume is several times larger than the previous Meili.

It's even bigger than the Sonny in Chihong's impression!

Two sails with the logo of the Straw Hat Pirates on them suddenly fell down as the curtain disappeared, and the dark pirate flag fluttered in the wind.

The gentle sea breeze blew into the empty dock and blew over the surprised faces of the Straw Hats.

Franky and Bingshan raised their arms at the same time, making an invitation:

"Come on, everyone!"

"Give your battleship a resounding name!"

Although according to convention, the name of a ship is generally determined by the creator of the ship.

But after all, Franky and Bingshan are just the modifiers of the Merry, so the right to name it is still in the hands of the Straw Hat Pirates.

"New name!?"

Everyone who was about to board the ship to experience the new features of the Meili was stunned.

Chi Hong grinned: "That's right."

"Now that the Meili has a brand new look, it naturally needs a brand new name."

He turned his attention to his partners: "Come on, everyone, let's think of a resounding name for our partners!"

"Let me take the lead~"

His red eyes flashed and he looked at the certificate of king above the head of the Meili.

This was the reward item he obtained from the Advanced Ball after conquering the Frozen Bird.

Now placed on the top of Meili's head, although the size may not be very suitable, its built-in effect has become the main source of Meili's momentum.

With a flash of thought, Chi Hong suddenly smiled and said:

"Since it is the ship belonging to the Pirate King, why not call it - King Merry!"

"King?!"

After hearing Chi Hong's idea, the Straw Hats were suddenly stunned.

Usopp nodded and said: "It sounds quite impressive...but why does it feel a little strange for no reason?"

"Maybe it's because it's too easy to understand!"

Zoro stood up with a big laugh. As the user of the naming fruit, he seemed to have a say at this moment.

The eyes of the Straw Hats were instantly focused on him.

"A ship that can be ridden by the king is already the ship of the king, so there is no need to elaborate on it."

"So instead of the name of the king, I think it's better to call it - Six Paths of Reincarnation·Merry!"

"To symbolize the rebirth of Merry!!!"

"Hey!? Doesn't this sound too weird?!"

Sanji frowned and retorted when he heard the name.

He then pinched the cigarette in one hand, his eyes swept over the huge hull, and then said with a smile:

"Such a beautiful hull, of course it should be equipped with a Merry name!"

"Why not call it the Lovely Lady Merry!"

"What a messed up name!"

With Sanji taking the lead, the style of the entire Straw Hat Pirates suddenly changed.

Everyone began to put forward their own ideas.

For example, Nami's Storm Thunder·Merry, Usopp's Universal Forest·Merry, Chopper's Sacred Heart·Merry, Robin's Walker·Merry...

And Luffy's——Lion Tiger Dog·Merry!

Finally, after everyone punched Luffy on the head, the farce came to an end.

Luffy, with a big bump on his head, slowly stood up and proposed again with a wronged look:

"Since you all don't like it, why don't I change it!"

He covered the big bump on his head.

Since Nami, Robin and others have practiced armed color domineering as their levels have increased, Luffy's mischievous personality has made him get beaten up a lot.

However, this time, Luffy showed a rare look of thinking.

Under the eyes of everyone who had no expectations, he suddenly clenched his fist with one hand and hit his palm.

"Got it!"

"Hey, hey, hey, Luffy, you are not going to come up with a messy name, are you!?" Usopp muttered in disbelief.

But Luffy suddenly turned around, looked at the brand new Merry and laughed:

"Freedom· Thousand Miles of Sunshine Merry!!!"

"Huh?~"

The Straw Hats, who originally thought that Luffy would say something nonsense again, were all stunned, and a thoughtful look flashed in their eyes.

And the eyes of the natural Red trembled.

"Thousand Miles of Sunshine?! Isn't this the original name of the Sunny?!"

"This name should originally come from the iceberg!?"

The puzzled Red immediately said: "Luffy, why did you give the Merry this name?"

"What?" Luffy scratched his head and smiled in confusion:

"Because we want to be the freest existence in the entire ocean!!!"

"We want to travel through every sea area in the world and reach every island with the Merry, and see all the sunrises and sunsets in the world, right?"

"Then why not call it the Sunset of the World?" Chopper, who didn't understand human culture very well, immediately asked curiously, but was covered by Usopp beside him.

Nami on the side was shocked and said: "Luffy! This is simply your most cultured episode!"

"Freedom and sunshine?" Zoro repeated Luffy's suggestion, and then raised his mouth: "It sounds pretty good."

Sanji also nodded in response: "At least it's much better than someone's six reincarnations!"

"It sounds like your 'cute lady' is very powerful."

"Sure enough, there is never anything serious in the head of the curly eyebrow!"

"What!? Bastard! Do you want to fight!?"

"Oh?! Who is afraid of who?!"

Clang!

Zoro instantly drew out his long sword: "Don't think that a fruit ability can make you rampant all the time! Sooner or later, I will chop off your legs myself!"

"Oh?" Sanji frowned: "I hope someone's slash can be as hard as his mouth!"

Bang! Bang!

"You two! Have you had enough of the fight!!!"

Nami punched Zoro and Sanji head-on in an instant, knocking the two powerful men who were already comparable to the Seven Warlords of the Sea into the ground.

Then she looked at Robin again: "Robin, what do you think?"

Robin smiled when asked: "I think as a crew member, it is a good idea to occasionally listen to the captain's ideas."

"What's more, Thousand Miles of Sunshine sounds very similar to my Walker!"

"Did Robin agree?" Nami finally turned her head and looked at Red:

"So Red, what do you think of the name Freedom Thousand Miles of Sunshine Merry!?"

"My idea?"

Hearing this familiar name, Red's face inevitably showed some emotion.

Then he smiled at Luffy:

"My idea... of course I'll listen to whoever has more words!"

"Luffy, have you decided!?"

"Of course!"

Luffy showed his two rows of white teeth, put on his straw hat, opened his arms and shouted at the Merry:

"Then it's decided!"

"From today on, Merry's new name is--"

"Freedom·Sunny Merry!!!"

Wow--

Just as Luffy finished speaking, a sacred light suddenly bloomed from the hull of the Merry, pouring onto the faces of the Straw Hat crew.

"This is..."

Seeing this scene, a flash of excitement flashed across Akari's eyes.

Although he had previously speculated that the remodeled Merry might be able to set off the evolutionary laws of the Pokémon world, when all this appeared before his eyes...

Akari was inevitably excited.

In this sacred light of evolution, the outline of the Merry also changed slightly.

This scene also made Franky and Iceberg, the two designers who personally participated in the transformation of the Merry, show extremely shocked expressions on their faces.

Wow——

The light of evolution came quickly and went quickly!

After just a few seconds, everything returned to calm again.

But when everyone turned their eyes to the Merry again, their eyes flashed with amazement.

Even Akari was no exception!

At this time, the Merry, from top to bottom, even though the appearance has not changed much, for some reason, gives people a feeling of being natural!

The momentum is natural and strong, domineering and free and easy!

It is just like a creation born by nature, not at all like it was made by human hands.

The King's Certificate, which was originally forcibly placed on the bow by Franky, has now become a real crown, worn on the top of Merry's head, perfectly fitting.

In the sheep's head bow, there is a pair of white wings, like the wings of freedom, carrying the dreams of the partners to a more distant sky at any time.

"Everyone, long time no see!"

At this moment, a light voice suddenly came from the top of everyone's head.

Chihong and others immediately looked up along the source of the sound.

In an instant, a girl with a small crown on the right side of her head, wearing a misty cloak, and covering her face with a hazy feeling, fell from the sky and landed in front of everyone.

"You are..."

"Little Merry!!"

Looking at the hazy girl in front of her who was completely different from the previous ship spirit image, Red, who knew something about the evolution rules of Pokémon, was the first to react and asked in surprise.

The girl smiled with her legs crossed.

Although she didn't show her face to everyone, people could feel the joy and excitement in her heart at the moment.

"Of course~"

Standing at the railing of the ship, Little Merry turned around gracefully and cutely in front of everyone, and smiled mischievously:

"Is there a second ship spirit in the Straw Hat Pirates!?"

"Merry!!!"

It was not until then that Luffy and others realized what had happened and screamed in surprise.

Then everyone showed their magical powers and came to the deck of the Freedom Thousand Sunshine Merry, and happily talked to Little Merry in a new look.

After not seeing each other for half a month, everyone missed Little Merry very much and had a lot of things to talk to Little Merry.

At the same time, Red quietly walked behind everyone, put his consciousness on the screen of the machine, and began to check the new attribute panel of Little Merry.
