One Piece, I'm just an adventurer.

The lounge area, located in the center of the deck, features comfortable sofas, dining tables, and entertainment facilities such as board games and music players for crew members to relax and enjoy themselves.

The plantation is located on the deck at the rear of the second floor of the ship. It uses vertical planting technology. Part of it grows vegetables, fruits and herbs to meet the daily dietary needs of the crew and beautify the environment. Another part consists of spiritual plants that Lin Yi obtained, such as the Power Fruit Tree and Origin Fruit Tree that they had eaten.

Located at the stern, the pool is designed as a filtered seawater pool, complete with water slides and fountains, making it a great place for crew members to relax and exercise.

To store food and for viewing purposes, they also built a huge aquarium that runs through the first to third floors of the ship's cabin. It can house a variety of marine life, combining both aesthetic appeal and practicality.

The living quarters are located on both sides of the main ground floor and consist of individual bedrooms: each bedroom is designed to be comfortable and equipped with an ensuite bathroom, wardrobe and desk to meet the crew’s needs for privacy and rest.

Control room: Located on the top deck, it offers a panoramic view of the sea.

Weapon system annihilation cannon: Located at the bow, the cannon is huge with a muzzle diameter of 3 meters. It uses energy compression technology and can release devastating power with a single shot, enough to sink a small island.

Defense system: Automatic turrets are equipped on both sides of the hull, which can intercept enemy shells and projectiles to ensure the safety of the ship.

The power system was exchanged by Lin Yi using prosperity points from the system space. It is a modern power system based on the technology of the One Piece world: it adopts a hybrid power system of nuclear power and electric power, with a speed of up to 50 knots and extremely long endurance.

The new ship is also equipped with a mechanical flight device located at the bottom of the hull, featuring a propeller and thrusters, which can take the ship into the air when necessary, reaching a maximum flight altitude of 1000 meters, adapting to various complex environments.

The entire ship is equipped with an intelligent control system that can automatically adjust energy distribution, monitor hull status, and provide navigation and combat assistance.

This ship is not only a powerful warship, but also a floating paradise at sea, perfectly meeting the crew's needs for life, entertainment and combat. It can be said to be the "dream ship" in the pirate world!

"This ship is amazing, Brother Lin Yi," Felina said excitedly.

The others also expressed their love for the new ship.

"Haha, Lin Yi, kid, I didn't disappoint you, did I?" Tom laughed smugly.

Lin Yi stroked the hull of the boat, his affection evident. Hearing Tom's smug expression, he gave a thumbs-up and said, "Mr. Tom, this is it."

"Haha, now all that's left is a name for the ship. Have you guys come up with one yet?" Tom laughed.

Lin Yi looked at his companions, and under their expectant gazes, he whispered the name he had already thought of for the ship: "Let's call it the Angel's Judgment, the angel of freedom, judging all evil."

"Angel's Judgment." The crowd murmured in unison, their eyes then lighting up.

"Haha, let's call it Angel Judgment." Everyone agreed on this name.

"From now on, you will accompany us on our voyage," Lin Yi said quietly, looking at the black and white angel at the bow of the ship.

After deciding on the name, Tom had it sprayed onto the hull, and thus the Angel Judgment was born, ready to set sail at any time.

Having spent almost half a year in Water Seven, Lin Yi and his group had no intention of staying any longer.

After Lin Yi had his companions prepare the necessary supplies, he followed Bing Shan and the others into a spacious office.

Upon entering the room, Bing Shan suddenly turned around, faced Lin Yi, and said with an unusually serious expression, "Lin Yi, I'm counting on you to take care of me this time!" As soon as he finished speaking, he bowed deeply to express his earnestness and the heavy responsibility entrusted to him.

Upon hearing this, Tom, who was still immersed in excitement, instantly suppressed his smile. He slowly walked to the sofa in the office, sat down with a gloomy expression, and kept his lips tightly closed without saying another word.

Initially, Tom disagreed with leaving with Lin Yi. He believed that if he died, the World Government would cease its pursuit and persecution of his two apprentices and many old friends. However, Lin Yi provided him with a detailed analysis of the current situation, pointing out that even if he chose to sacrifice himself, as long as he didn't hand over the Pluton blueprints, the World Government's attention would remain firmly focused on Iceberg and the others. After all, for the World Government, obtaining the Pluton blueprints was the most crucial matter.

After careful consideration, Tom finally accepted Lin Yi's proposal. According to the plan, once he left with Lin Yi, they could announce to the outside world that Lin Yi had taken the Pluton blueprints. This would likely shift the World Government's attention entirely to Lin Yi, thus sparing Iceberg and his companions from further trouble and danger.

"Taking Mr. Tom away is easy, but are you confident in dealing with the World Government's questioning?" Lin Yi asked with some unease.

"No problem. After all, Water Seven is practically the World Government's shipyard. They still need us, so they won't make things too difficult for us," Iceberg said with a smile.

Since Bing Shan said he was confident, Lin Yi didn't say anything more, but instead said, "If you encounter any danger, inject energy into the silver coins I gave you, and I will come as soon as possible."

“Okay,” Iceberg said gratefully.

"Mr. Tom, I'm going to prepare some things. We'll probably be leaving tomorrow, is that alright?" Lin Yi said to Tom.

Tom shook his head and didn't say anything.

Seeing this, Lin Yi didn't pay any attention. He knew that the old man was in a bad mood, so he said goodbye and left.

As Lin Yi's footsteps faded into the distance at the end of the corridor, the spacious office fell silent, leaving only Tom and Iceberg.

Tom stood silently, his expression grave and complex as he gazed at his eldest disciple. His lips parted slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but the words caught in his throat, and he couldn't utter a single syllable. Finally, all the unspoken words turned into a heavy sigh.

Tom slowly raised his hand and gently patted Iceberg's broad shoulder with a hint of guilt, as if expressing his unspeakable apology from the depths of his heart. Then, he silently turned around and slowly walked out of the room with slightly unsteady steps, leaving behind only a lonely figure.

Iceberg stood motionless, watching his teacher's departing figure. As the door gently closed, a faint smile appeared on his usually icy face. He knew that his teacher's choice to leave with Lin Yi greatly reduced the likelihood of him facing certain death. Thinking this, the heavy weight in Iceberg's heart finally eased slightly, and he secretly rejoiced, "That's good!"

Immediately afterward, Iceberg's thoughts drifted back to his rather troublesome junior brother. Just thinking of him made Iceberg frown, a look of helplessness on his face. Although they were both adopted and raised by Tom from a young age and were as close as brothers, they rarely interacted due to differences in their beliefs.

It might be difficult to calmly discuss the teacher's situation with him.

Soon, Lin Yi and his team had prepared the supplies and moved them all onto the Angel Judgment.

The next day, everyone got up early and went to the dock, where they had sailed the boat the night before.

On the dock, Tom was saying goodbye to a young man who was only wearing his underwear.

"Waaah, old man, why are you leaving already? You're so old, why are you still messing around with young people!" Franky, the young man in his underwear, said with tears streaming down his face.

Tom, who was still feeling a bit sad, suddenly had a black line appear on his forehead when he heard this. This unlucky guy was as annoying as ever. Oh well, he was leaving anyway, so he might as well forgive him this time.

"Eisbag, keep an eye on Franky," Tom said earnestly to Iceberg.

"Okay, teacher," Iceberg said with a hint of reluctance on his face.

"Old man, if you're going to leave, then leave. Why are you making it sound like I'm not as good as my senior brother?" Frank said with dissatisfaction.

"You... never mind, you'd better watch yourself." Tom turned and left helplessly.

After exchanging a few words with Iceberg, Lin Yi and his group boarded the Angel Judgment.

Standing at the bow of the boat, Lin Yi shouted to his companions, "Haha, brothers, let's go!"

"Yes, Captain" ×8

"Ouch."

With a loud whistle, the Angel Judgment slowly sailed out to sea.

Chapter 68 Spandam's Revenge

Not far from the bustling Water Seven, the island of Enies Lobby, standing majestically in the vast ocean, appears exceptionally imposing and solemn. However, at this moment, in a spacious and bright office on Enies Lobby, Spandam sits quietly on a soft and comfortable sofa, his face grim, like a volcano about to erupt.

He had been here for a full four months. During this time, he had been like an ant on a hot pan, anxiously waiting for Lin Yi and the others to leave Seven Waters City. Every day, he hoped with anticipation to hear news of their departure, but each time he was met with disappointment. This long and agonizing wait made his already irritable temper even more volatile, and the anger in his heart seemed ready to erupt at any moment.

At this moment, his bloodshot eyes were fixed on the window, and he muttered through gritted teeth, "Damn it! Why aren't you leaving? I've had enough of this torture!" He clenched his fists tightly, his knuckles cracking from the force, as if he would not hesitate to order the destruction of the entire Water Seven if he could just endure a little longer.

However, despite the burning anger within him, Spandam never dared to make a rash move.

That day, he took out his most treasured possessions, which he had kept for many years, and went to pay his respects to Saint Sigdal, the leader of the CP organization. Saint Sigdal received him, citing his past service under his command and the generous gift.

When the two finally met face to face, Spandam didn't even have time for a few words of greeting before collapsing heavily to his knees with a thud. Tears instantly welled up in his eyes, streaming down his contorted face. Sobbing, he cried out in a trembling voice to Saint Sigdal the tragic fate of his son's murder, pleading desperately for the saint's help to avenge this blood feud.

Upon hearing that this matter was related to Lin Yi, Saint Sigdal felt an instinctive sense of resistance. After all, he had suffered several crushing defeats at Lin Yi's hands, which greatly displeased his superiors. Moreover, they had explicitly instructed him not to provoke Lin Yi for the time being. Clearly, the formidable strength Lin Yi had displayed had instilled deep fear in even the mysterious and authoritative Five Elders.

As a former subordinate of St. Sigdel, Spandan was intimately familiar with his superior's thoughts. When he sensed that St. Sigdel seemed reluctant to get involved in his affairs, he hurriedly pleaded, "My lord, according to the intelligence I possess, that old man named Tom has the blueprints for Hades! My poor son was tragically murdered while investigating this matter. Please, my lord, avenge my mortally deceased child!"

Upon hearing this, Saint Sigdal, who had been sitting in his chair, suddenly stood up, his eyes wide open, his gaze fixed on Spandam like two sharp arrows. He demanded in astonishment, "What? Is what you're saying true? The blueprints for Hades are really in that person's hands? You should know the severe consequences you'll face if you dare to deceive me!"

“It’s absolutely true, sir! How could I possibly dare to lie to you!” Spandam patted his chest with certainty and assured him.

Seeing his confident and composed demeanor, which suggested he wasn't lying at all, Sigdal Saint was taken aback, and his emotions began to stir. He paced back and forth in the spacious office, as if he were going through a fierce internal struggle and reflection.

Pluto, the Hades, is a legendary ancient weapon, its destructive power terrifying, renowned as the most powerful weapon of all. Unfortunately, this divine artifact has been lost to the world, becoming an unattainable legend. Yet today, news of Pluto has resurfaced—how could this not be incredibly exciting? If he could successfully obtain the blueprints for Pluto, his position within the organization would be rock-solid and unshakeable!

Thinking this, Saint Sigdal took a deep breath, trying to calm his turbulent emotions, and then said to Spandine in an unquestionable tone: "Very well, Spandine. In that case, I will immediately dispatch a CP0 elite squad to your command, and at the same time grant you the authority to mobilize the Enies Lobby army. Remember, you must bring me back the Pluton blueprints no matter what, without fail!"

Upon hearing this, Spandam's face immediately lit up with undisguised joy. Although CP0's elite squad alone might not be able to defeat the formidable Lin Yi and his group, now that he held the power to deploy the Enies Lobby army, he naturally no longer needed to engage in a head-on confrontation. After all, using overwhelming firepower for blanket strikes was always one of his strengths.

“Yes, my lord, I will bring you the blueprints of Hades.” Spandam said respectfully.

Saint Sigdel thought for a moment and then said, "Just focus on finding the blueprints. Don't provoke Lin Yi and the others for now, and Water Seven must not be destroyed. Understand?"

Spandam was very unwilling upon hearing this, but he dared not disobey Saint Sigdal's order and could only lower his head and agree.

"Damn Celestial Dragons! I've served you for so long, poured my heart and soul into you, and now my son has tragically died, and you won't even grant me this small request to avenge him! You all deserve to die!" Spanda roared furiously, slamming his hands down on the solid table with a dull, deafening thud. His already ferocious face was twisted beyond recognition by extreme rage, his eyes bloodshot, making him look like a wild, out-of-control beast.

Just then, a rhythmic knocking came from outside the door. Hearing the sound, Spandam suppressed his surging anger, took a few deep breaths, and tried to calm himself down. Then, in a hoarse, deep but authoritative voice, he called out, "Come in."

As the door slowly opened, a young man in sergeant's uniform cautiously entered. When he saw the messy desk with documents scattered all over the floor, his heart skipped a beat.

Since this officer arrived at Enies Lobby, he hasn't had a single good day. It's either fighting or something. It looks like today won't be any better. Thinking of this, a fine layer of sweat involuntarily appeared on the young man's forehead.

"What do you want?" Spandam's sharp, sinister eyes, like those of a hawk, were fixed on the trembling youth before him. His icy words were forced from his tightly pursed lips, and his tone was so vicious that it was almost unbearable. It was as if he would immediately fly into a rage and vent all his resentment on the young man if he could not give him a satisfactory answer.

Feeling the intense, oppressive gaze emanating from Spandane, the young man felt every hair on his body stand on end, and his body trembled uncontrollably. He stammered, "Sir...sir, we have news about the whereabouts of Lin Yi and his companions, whom you instructed us to keep an eye on. They...they have left Water Seven." After saying this, the young man let out a long sigh of relief, as if he had completed an incredibly difficult task, but at the same time, his heart was still in his throat, anxiously awaiting Spandane's next reaction.

Spandam sprang from his chair as if struck by lightning. His sharp eyes flashed with a cold light, his lips pressed into a thin line, and he roared in a low, icy voice, "Get the people assembled immediately! Execute it right now!" His voice was like a gust of cold wind, instantly sweeping through the entire room.

Upon hearing the order, the young man shuddered, his face instantly changing. He quickly straightened up and respectfully replied, "Yes, sir!" Then he turned and dashed off like an arrow, muttering to himself, "That was terrifying!"

After the young man disappeared outside the door, Spandam's face became even more ferocious and terrifying. He gritted his teeth and muttered in a low voice, "Hmph, none of you will escape! I will make you pay a terrible price!"

It must be said that the troops on Enies Lobby are well-trained and efficient. When they received Spandam's orders, they completed their assembly and were ready to go in less than 20 minutes. All the soldiers were lined up neatly on the parade ground, each one in high spirits and full of morale.

Spandam strode confidently to the soldiers, his grim face like the calm before a storm, suffocatingly oppressive. He surveyed the group, then said in a cold, ruthless tone, "Move out!"

At Spandam's command, a cacophony of footsteps and the clanging of equipment erupted. Soon, a massive warship and two smaller medium-sized warships slowly sailed out of the harbor, charging headlong towards Water Seven at full speed.

Meanwhile, in Water Seven, ever since Lin Yi's departure, Iceberg had been plagued by a persistent unease deep within his heart. This feeling was like an invisible hand gripping his heart, making him restless. It was as if a mysterious force was foreshadowing a major event about to unfold.

Finally, unable to contain his anxiety any longer, Iceberg decided to go to his junior apprentice Franky's place. He rushed to Franky's studio, and without even exchanging pleasantries, handed Franky a set of drawings, solemnly instructing him, "Franky, things might not be good. Keep these drawings safe. If anything changes, you must leave Water Seven immediately."

Franky looked at the iceberg with a puzzled expression, completely baffled as to what was going on.

However, Iceberg didn't explain much, but solemnly instructed, "Remember, never let this blueprint fall into the hands of the World Government!" After saying that, he turned and hurriedly left.

After explaining things to Frankie, Iceberg rushed back to the city hall. Upon entering the building, he immediately ordered the evacuation of all staff to ensure their safety. Although the staff were confused, they quickly followed his instructions.

But just as everyone had evacuated, two deafening explosions suddenly rang out! The sound was like thunder, echoing throughout the entire city. Iceberg's face turned extremely grim upon hearing the sudden roar. He never imagined that the World Government would be so ruthless, resorting to violence without a word.

Without a second thought, Iceberg strode forward like an arrow, dashing towards the direction from which the explosion had come. He silently prayed that there hadn't been too much damage or casualties…

On the sea outside Water Seven, three enormous and majestic warships, like steel behemoths, were lined up in a neat row, their dark cannons all pointed at the bustling city.

At the bow of the lead warship, Spandam stood expressionless and cold-faced. The sea breeze whipped his clothes and hair, yet he remained motionless like a statue, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking.

In the midst of this silence, an adjutant strode up to Spandam and respectfully reported, "Sir, all the tasks you assigned have been completed satisfactorily. We are now fully prepared and ready to launch an artillery attack on Water Seven at any time!"

Upon hearing his adjutant's report, Spandam nodded slightly in approval. He then raised his right hand, about to give the order to fire, when suddenly a sharp voice rang out, abruptly interrupting his impending command.

"Spandam, have you forgotten what Lord Sigdal said forbidding you from destroying Water Seven?" A slightly thin middle-aged man slowly walked over, speaking while staring intently at Spandam with a questioning gaze.

Faced with the questioning, Spandine's face flashed with displeasure. He turned his head and coldly replied, "Luther Hughes, it's none of your business to interfere in my affairs! The master has already made it clear that I am fully responsible for handling all matters here. You just need to obediently follow my orders!"

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man called Lutherius snorted coldly, then continued in a nonchalant tone, "Fine, if that's how it is, then so be it. However, if your reckless actions ruin the tasks assigned by the adults, you might not be able to bear the consequences yourself!" After saying this, Lutherius said no more, only glancing thoughtfully at Spandam before silently turning and retreating to his original position.

Seeing that Luther Hughes remained silent, Spandam glanced coldly at the outer walls of Water Seven in the distance, then ordered without hesitation, "Attention! All ships, under my command, immediately launch a fierce bombardment of the outer walls of Water Seven!"
