I'm in One Piece, and I'm Luffy's childhood friend.

Zambry was so surprised that his eyes almost popped out at Forest Mask Bai Yun.

I can't believe Forest Mask Hakuyun actually gave it to me! Two hundred million Berries! Two hundred million!! So generous! Are you out of your mind?!

"You're going to use this money to realize your own dreams, right?"

"I am the Wish Fairy!!"

My mission is to help others achieve their dreams!

Forest Mask Bai Yun turned around, grabbed his cloak to cover himself, and began to act.

"What? What wish fairy?"

"There are people like this?"

"Then give me another two hundred million, or give me a bottle of Coke that I can't finish drinking."

Frankie wanted more.

Forest Mask Bai Yun said, "Don't push your luck. If I had an endless supply of cola, I'd give it to you."

"Two hundred million is enough."

Finally, just remember that there is a price to pay for taking this money.

"Well then, goodbye!"

After saying that, Forest Mask flicked his white cloak, turned around and flew away as if he had vanished into thin air in Franky and the others' eyes.

"Disappeared!!"

Everyone was startled, including Franky.

"There is a price to pay."

"ん～スーパー" (I'm not sure if the Japanese audiobook can recognize it? It's Franky's catchphrase: Hmm~ Super~~ level)

"The Franky family isn't afraid of any consequences!!"

"These 500 million Berry coins are for you to celebrate!"

Franky generously gave Zanbai and his team 500 million Berries, instantly earning cheers from his underlings.

He and the Square Sisters used the remaining money to buy the Treasure Tree Adam.

Chapter 440: The Best Example

After giving the money to Franky, Forest Mask Hakuyun returned all the way back to where Usopp was lying. Nami and Usopp were still there. Just as Usopp was wondering why Forest Mask Hakuyun was missing, he said, "Hakuyun, Hakuyun is here."

.........

"White Luck!!"

Usopp was still very excited and kept calling him Hakuyun instead of Forest Mask, because Forest Mask Hakuyun was carrying two suitcases, but they were fake and had no money inside.

Forest Mask Bai Yun returned with a smile.

"Are you okay?"

"Leaving us aside, are you alright? Did you get your money back?!"

Usopp asked excitedly.

Forest Mask Bai Yun still felt a little ashamed, "I'm fine."

As for the money, Forest Mask Bai Yun gestured to the box twice, but I didn't say whether there was any money inside.

"Great."

Usopp wept with joy.

At that moment, Luffy suddenly descended from the sky, landing precisely in the middle of them, then rolled out and crashed into the wall.

"Luffy!?"

Usopp was surprised.

"Luffy, how did you fall from the sky?"

Luffy sprang up and fell from the sky. The minor injury was like a tickle to him.

"Usopp!!"

"Usopp and Forest Mask, along with their money, have been kidnapped by the Franky family!!"

Luffy spoke with great excitement.

Usopp didn't know how to answer. "Why don't you open your eyes wider and look at me again?"

Luffy paused for a moment, "Usopp!!"

"Are you OK."

"And you, Forest Mask, did you get the box and the money back?"

I finally realized what was happening.

"Yes, thanks to White... Forest Mask, we got the money back."

"The Merry can be repaired."

Usopp spoke happily to Luffy.

Upon hearing this, Luffy and Nami both froze.

Usopp noticed this too, and was about to speak when Forest Mask Hakuun immediately stepped in to smooth things over.

"Let's go back to the Going Merry and rejoin everyone."

Usopp agreed, "Yes, let's go back to the Going Merry and tell the Going Merry the good news."

Forest Mask Hakuun, Luffy, and Nami: "........"

..........

"Hmm? They're back."

On the Going Merry, Zoro spotted Luffy and his two companions returning.

Sanji and Chopper had already returned to the ship earlier, and this was said to them.

Furthermore, Zoro had already told Sanji and Chopper about what Kaku had said about the Going Merry being unable to sail any longer.

"Wasn't Sister Robin with them?"

Sanji and Chopper walked to the railing.

Chopper waved to signal, while Sanji was still thinking about Robin.

But right now, the most urgent thing is to tell Usopp that the Merry can't be repaired.

.........

"Hahaha, under the wise leadership of Captain Usopp, we still managed to get the 200 million Berries back."

"Now we can focus on repairing the Merry. When are we going to talk to Iceberg, the shipyard owner?"

Everyone gathered on the deck, and Usopp immediately asked when the Going Merry would be built.

Everyone was silent.

"What's wrong? Why are you all reacting like this?"

Aren't you happy that the Merry is going to be repaired?

Usopp posed a thought-provoking question.

Forest Mask Bai Yun sighed. He decided to bring up the topic himself.

"The Merry is like a partner to us, how could we not be happy?"

"But judging from everyone's reaction, I'm wondering if the Going Merry... is beyond repair?"

Luffy looked up with a smile on his face; this was the first time Bai Yun had ever seen a forced smile on Luffy's face.

"um, yes."

"So I've decided to switch to a different boat."

"Thanks to the Merry, we were able to get here. It has completed its mission."

The fact that Luffy can say this means he has come to terms with it, but now that he has, it's Usopp's turn.

"Look, there are many ships on this price list ranging from tens of millions to 3 million Berries. That's enough for us to choose from. We can exchange any of them for a bigger ship."

Luffy kept talking.

Usopp couldn't listen anymore.

"Wait, wait, what nonsense are you talking about, Luffy?"

What do you mean by "it can't be repaired"?

"Isn't 3 million Berries enough for repairs?!"

Luffy shook his head.

"not like this."

Usopp couldn't stay calm anymore.

"What happened?! Explain yourself! Is there not enough money? Or what?!"

"This isn't about money!!"

Seeing that their voices were getting louder and louder, Zoro spoke up.

"Calm down, talk it out, don't fight!"

Usopp couldn't calm down.

"How can I stay calm? This guy keeps talking nonsense!!"

Luffy is the same; how much less reluctant he is to leave the Going Merry than Usopp? But as Iceberg said, as the captain, he still has to make this painful decision.

"It was a difficult decision for me to make."

The closer they got, the louder they shouted, and Chopper and Sanji could only hold them back. At this moment, Luffy couldn't hold back any longer and shouted too.
