Comparing the two Luffies, this Luffy is so cool!

Charlotte Lingling: "Roger, is there something wrong with your brain???"

Kaido: "Just talk about Rocks, why are you talking about us!!!"

Shiki: "You idiot Roger!!"

Edward Newgate: "You're shooting a map cannon..."

Roger: "Ahem... forget what I said... Anyway, ship elves only exist in legends. I've never heard of a ship elf appearing on anyone's ship."

Monkey D. Luffy: "It has appeared! A ship spirit appeared on the Merry!"

Skulachiman-ap: "Hey, Straw Hat! Don't bring what happened over there to this place."

Nami: "It didn't happen over there. A ship spirit also appeared on our ship Merry."

Kid Eustace: "And your Merry?"

Roronoa Zoro: "The Merry is no longer able to sail, so we switched to the Thousand Sunny."

Kid Eustace: "So, that ship Merry spirit you're talking about is also dead and has no evidence?"

Skulachiman Apu: "Ah bah bah bah!!! Seriously, everyone can brag!"

Usopp: "Damn it! The Merry really has a ship spirit!!!"

Capone Becky: "The white-framed screen just showed the moment you captured the Merry, but it didn't show the ship spirit."

X Drake: "Yeah. If your ship really had a ship spirit, there shouldn't be no shots of the ship spirit."

Monkey D. Luffy: "Merry's ship spirit hadn't appeared yet at that time!!"

Kid Eustace: "Hahaha!"

Skulachiman Apu: "Ah ba ba ba!"

Nami: "Luffy, Usopp, don't argue with them. Whether our Merry has a ship spirit or not, we don't need to prove anything to them."

Monkey D. Luffy: "Hmph!"

Although the Straw Hat Pirates' companions stopped arguing in the chat room, they were all deeply shocked!!!

Over there, Red Luffy made the Merry produce a ship spirit with just a vow. What a firm emotion this vow contained...

[When the ship spirit saw Luffy and the others approaching the ship, her figure gradually faded into nothingness and disappeared.]

"According to the master's instructions, all the supplies for your voyage have been prepared and placed on board," said Steward Merry.

【"Thank you so much!" Luffy expressed his sincere gratitude.】

Butler Merry smiled and said, "You're welcome, Luffy! The master said he'll treat you to another feast tonight. Tomorrow he and his wife will bring the young lady to see you off!"

【"Hurrah!!!"】

[There's a feast to eat, so what else is there to say~~~]

【Luffy readily agreed.】

"Then I'll go back first. You should familiarize yourself with the ship."

[Merry smiled and waved, then prepared to disembark.]

【But suddenly, he stared at Luffy's hat. 】

"What's wrong?" Luffy asked in confusion after seeing Merry's expression.

Merry realized that he had been a bit rude and shook his head: "Oh, sorry. Many years ago, a group of pirates came to our village. Their captain wore a hat that looked so similar to yours that I almost thought it was the same hat~~"

"Ah, this straw hat?"

Luffy took off his straw hat and said with a smile, "It was indeed given to me by a great pirate."

【A gift from a pirate?】

Merry was a little stunned: "Could it be... the red-haired captain of the Red Hair Pirates?"

"Huh? You know the Red Hair Pirates? Yes, this hat was given to me by Shanks, the captain of the Red Hair Pirates. Do you know him?" Luffy asked excitedly.

[Merry shook his head: "I didn't know him, but Jesus Bu from our village followed him to sea, leaving behind his frail wife and son, who was less than five years old at the time, to live a hard life in the village. Within two years, his wife also died, leaving only his son to live alone. I just suddenly thought of this poor child..."]

[Speaking of this, Merry sighed, obviously he is also a kind-hearted person.]

"Uncle Jesus' son..."

【Hearing this, Luffy's brows furrowed.】

After a moment of contemplation, Luffy looked at Merry: "Where does he live? Can I go meet him?"

"There's a small, isolated house on the hillside east of the village. That's his home. His name is Usopp, and he's a notorious liar in the village. If you can't find him, just ask any villager."

“Okay, thank you very much!”

[After waiting for Merry to leave, Zoro and Buggy just came out of the cabin. ]

"This ship is really nice! The training area is much more spacious!" Zoro said excitedly.

"I need to find someone in the village. Are you going?" Luffy asked the two of them.

"Whatever. I don't need this little time anyway." Zoro replied casually.

Bucky waved his hand. "I'm not going. I think I've found a trick to my slicing technique. I'll give it a try."

Luffy and Zoro got off the boat, asked for directions as they walked, and soon found Usopp's house.

“It’s you!!!”

[Seeing Luffy and Zoro appear at his doorstep, Usopp turned pale with fear! ]

[Three days ago, while crouching on a cliff, he witnessed these two men and another person instantly slaughter dozens of pirates. He was so frightened that he ran away...]

[Now seeing the two people coming to the door, Usopp's first reaction is that they are here to kill and silence them! ! ! ]

He frightened himself and sat down on the ground, stammering nervously, "How...how did you find me?"

How to find your...

Luffy suddenly remembered what Kaya's father said when he gave him the Merry: "It must be a special fate"...

After thinking about it, Luffy smiled and said, "It must be a special fate."

【Fate, you are a ghost! 】

Usopp quickly yelled, "I really didn't see anything that day. Please, don't kill me...!"

"Don't get me wrong, I heard your dream is to go to sea and become a brave sea warrior, so I came to invite you to go to sea with me!"

【Luffy smiled and extended his hand.】

[Of course, the main reason Luffy invited him to go out to sea was because he learned about Usopp's tragic experience from Merry. He also happened to know Jesus, and he had made an agreement with Red-Haired Shanks to meet on the sea in the future!]

So Luffy thought, since Usopp's dream is to become a brave sea warrior, why not just ask him to go out to sea with him?

[However, his invitation sounded like a death warrant to Usopp.]

"No, no, no, I'm not going! You must be planning to kill me at sea and destroy all traces of my body~~~" Usopp shook his head and quickly retreated.

[That’s it~]

[He decided that we were going to harm him...]

Luffy shrugged: "Then I'll have to bear with you for a while~"

[As he spoke, Luffy's Conqueror's Haki was released~~~]

【boom! 】

【Usopp's eyes rolled back and he fainted instantly.】

"Zoro!"

【"clear!"】

[Zoro takes a step forward, carries it and walks away~~~]

[The next day, the Merry left Xiluobu Village and headed out to sea again.]

Here~~~

The red frame screen gradually dimmed...

Chapter 54 Sanji, it’s time for you to grow up

Usopp: "Ah! You...stun me with your Conqueror Haki again...! You bastard Luffy!!"

Nico Robin: "Ahahaha~~~, Usopp is so miserable! He is currently the one in the Straw Hat Pirates who has suffered the most from the Conqueror's Haki."

Tony Tony Chopper: "Poor Usopp~~~"

Vinsmoke Sanji: "But I'm lucky. Fortunately, Merry told me about Usopp, otherwise Usopp really wouldn't be able to get on the ship."

Nami: "At least no one is lost. I wonder if Luffy over there will take me with him."

Monkey D. Luffy: "Don't worry, I will!"

...

Not long after, the screen with a white border gradually lit up.

The screen appears.

After Luffy and his companions left Xiluobu Village, they headed towards the sea again.

【On the way, they met John and Johnny. 】

[A few days later, they arrived at the floating restaurant, Bharati.]

[During a battle with Navy Captain Hebodi, Luffy fired a cannonball in the wrong direction, which damaged the restaurant's boat. As a result, he was asked by Captain Jip to work as a part-time worker to compensate for the damage.]

[A Jin shows up and wants to eat, but is chased out by the chefs.]

【Sanji quietly brought him some food. 】

【Afterwards, Ajin came again with Creek.】

【The chefs still have to be kicked out.】

【But Sanji gave Creek food again. 】

[After Creek had his fill, he brought a group of pirates to seize the Barati restaurant on the sea...]

Qiao Aliboni: "That cook... is he a fool?"

Qiao Zi: "Knowing that the other party will repay kindness with hatred, but still giving them food is simply turning your elbow outward!"

Sakaski: "What a fool!"

Trafalgar Law: "What Sanji did in the video was indeed too naive..."

Vinsmoke Sanji: "As a chef, if someone needs to eat, what's wrong with giving them food?"

Smoker: "Idiot! That Creek killed at least seven hundred innocent civilians in the East China Sea! He was about to starve to death, but you saved him with a meal. Have you ever considered how many more civilians will die at his hands later? "

Vinsmoke Sanji: "That's two different things. I'm a chef. If someone is hungry, I can't deny them food."

Tina: "So you're such a stubborn person..."

Rocks D. Gibeck: "Hahaha! This kid... still hasn't experienced the harshness of society~~~"

Marco: "He'd rather risk his family's lives than feed the enemy. What a jerk this guy is~"

Shiqi: "Hahahaha! You said..., he saved this Creek with a meal, and then Creek killed the store owner and all the chefs. Will this kid feel that he was wrong?"

Wang Zhi: "I bet he won't think he's wrong, haha!!"

Charlotte Linlin: "This kid definitely doesn't think he's in the wrong! When we pirates kill people, do we think we're wrong? Hahahaha!!!"

Kaido: “Hahahaha!!!”

Vinsmoke Sanji: "Assholes!!! You have no idea what I've been through!!"

Jipu: "Sanji..."

Vinsmoke Sanji: "Stinky...stinky old man..."
