Kira: "So the Straw Hat Pirates' ship did sink into the sea, right? "

Joelle Bonnie: "Yes, I remember the pirate ship they docked at the Sabaody Archipelago was not this one. It was much bigger than this one!!"

Usopp: "Merry..., was it destined that the Merry would not be able to continue with us from the moment we entered the Grand Line?"

Although the Merry was a gift from Kaya to Luffy, Usopp’s love for this ship is definitely the greatest in the entire Straw Hat Pirates!!!

Before the Straw Hat Pirates recruited a captain, Usopp was responsible for all the repairs...

If I have to say, the Merry has been with the Straw Hat Pirates all the way, it's like everyone's child, but Usopp is the one who does all the pooping and diaper changing...

There is no doubt that Usopp has invested too much in this ship~~~

Vinsmoke Sanji: "Looking back at this scene now, it's so sad...!!! Just now in the doldrums, the Merry fell from such a high altitude. I didn't think much of it before, but now I think about it, that must have been quite a bit of damage to the Merry!"

Nami: "Ah..., we didn't take good care of Merry..."

[Afterwards, the whale Labu opened its mouth wide and sucked the Merry into its stomach~~~]

[Kurocus appears~~]

Afterwards, the Straw Hat Pirates encountered Ms. Wednesday and Mr. 9 again. There was a minor friction between the two sides, and the two became prisoners of the Straw Hat Pirates~~~

Crocus tells the Straw Hat Pirates about Laboo the Whale's past, and they finally understand why Laboo the Whale rammed its head against the mountain...

Crocus: "Alas... those cowards... abandoned Laboo like that. This is a poor abandoned island whale~~~"

Even as a person in the video, Kulokas was still moved when he saw this scene again~~~

Tashigi: "Those pirates are such bastards! They let this island whale down!!!"

Brooke: "Hey, hey, hey!! Don't say that!!! They don't want to disappoint Lab, and they're not cowards!!!"

Tashigi: "Leaving Lab and walking away, isn't that cowardly?"

Franky: "No! In fact... after the Rumbar Pirates entered the Grand Line, when they arrived at the Devil's Triangle, all the crew members were killed by other pirate groups!"

Crocus: "How do you know???"

Black Maria: "Oh hehe~~~ That's not right! Since you said that all the crew members of the Rumbar Pirates were killed, how did you know about this? That happened 50 years ago..."

Brook: "Because I'm a member of the Rumbar Pirates!!"

Gol D. Roger: "Nani??? Didn't they just say that all the Rumbar Pirates were dead???"

Nico Robin: "Indeed, they are all dead. But Brook has the ability to eat the Yomizu Fruit and has a chance to resurrect himself."

Brook: "Yes, after I died, my soul left the underworld. When it was about to return to my body, it got lost in the Devil's Triangle for a year. When I found my body, it had turned into a skeleton, so I was resurrected like this..."

Crocus: "Huh...? So that's how it is...?"

Monkey D. Luffy: "Yes, Uncle Crocus! That's what happened."

Kurokas: "This..., I'm so sorry!!! I'll go explain to Lab right away and tell him that he has a partner!"

Brook: "If possible, please tell Lab that after Luffy and I have circled the Grand Line, we will come back and play Binx's wine for him."

Luffy: "Oh, and there's a promise I made with Laboon! Tell him to wait for me to come back and then fight him!"

Kurokas: "Ahahahaha!!! I'm going to tell Lab right now!!!"

[While Zoro, Sanji, Nami, and Usopp were still lamenting Lab's tragic experience, Luffy had already appeared at the main mast of the Merry without anyone noticing...]

[He grabbed the main mast of the Merry with both hands and pulled it upward with all his strength! !]

[Crack! ! —]

【Great force brings miracles! ! 】

[As expected... Luffy forcibly broke off the Merry's main mast! ! !]

“Wu ...

Luffy carried the main mast and rushed directly onto Laboon's body, then climbed up along the surface of the body and landed above Laboon's head! !

[“Rubber rubber…flower picking!!——”]

Luffy thrust hard, and the main mast pierced into a wound on Laboon's head, causing blood to splatter everywhere!!!

【"Ouch——"】

[Laboo howled in pain, then angrily attacked Luffy.]

【Luffy also punches left and right to attack Lab! !】

【Finally, with a bang, Luffy was slapped by Laboon and flew onto the mountain wall.】

"Asshole! What are you doing?! That's our ship's main mast!"

"Why are you destroying our ship?"

"Why are you fighting with Lab?!"

The Straw Hat Pirates' companions didn't understand Luffy's behavior and asked him hysterically.

However, Luffy didn't answer them. Instead, he stared at Lab with a fierce look: "I hit you, you hit me, and we're tied!!!"

"Lab, I'm strong, right?"

"The outcome between you and me hasn't been decided yet, so we must fight again!!"

"Your companion may be dead, but your opponent still exists. It's me...!!"

"We'll come back to see you after we've circled the Grand Line. Then we can have another good fight!!!"

Luffy stood with his legs crossed, his right thumb pointed at himself, looking very arrogant.

[“Booooooooooooooo…”]

[Laboo could understand what people were saying. He shook his head excitedly and gladly accepted Luffy's challenge! ! ! ]

Afterwards, the Straw Hat Pirates left Gemini Cape with MS Wednesday and MR9 and continued their journey~~~

[Lab happily sees them off~~~]

Crocus stood on the shore, muttering, "Are they... the pirates we've been waiting for...? What a heroic boy...! Right... Roger?"

Gol D. Roger: "Huh? Crocus, did you recognize my hat then?"

Crocus: "Nonsense! How can I not recognize the captain's hat??? But I really have to thank Luffy. Since then, Lab has stopped banging his head against the mountain~~~"

Monkey D. Luffy: "Ahahaha! I haven't seen Laboo for a long time. I miss it~~~"

Marco: "Straw Hat Luffy, you did a really good job helping Laboo!!"

Monkey D. Luffy: "Ahahaha!! It's just a piece of cake~~"

Marco: "But..., you overlooked one thing!!! While helping Lab, you hurt your other partner!"

Monkey D. Luffy: "Ah!?"

Hearing this, Luffy was stunned. He thought carefully and realized that he didn't seem to have hurt any of Zoro, Usopp, Sanji, and Nami...

Nono Noya Zoro: "No? At least I wasn't hurt. Luffy did fight with Sanji there, and then both of them were kicked into the sea by Nami..."

Sanji: "Idiot, that's Nami-chan's love kick! I like it! But even though Luffy and I fought, that doesn't count as Luffy hurting me!"

Usopp: "He's talking about...Merry~~~~"

Usopp's voice was filled with tears!!!

When Marco said that, Usopp's eyes were already red in the Boeing Islands~~~

Because Marco said "partner"...

And in Usopp's heart, he always regarded Merry as his partner!!!

Marco: "Yes! Not talking about the crew, just talking about the captain...! As the captain of a pirate ship, the ship is your second life! It is also one of your most trusted partners! If someone wants to destroy your ship, you should fight them with all your might! But you..., Straw Hat Luffy, what did you just do???"

Trafalgar Law: "Straw Hat Captain, you really shouldn't have broken the mast of the Merry with your own hands... Look at the Red Straw Hat Captain over there. When he took possession of the Merry, he swore to protect her forever. And then the Merry responded with a legendary response! She gave birth to a ship spirit! This is an existence that all the crew members have only heard of in legends!"

Trafalgar Law: "If you think about it... the reason why the Merry hasn't produced a ship spirit since it reached the Twin Capes is that you, the Straw Hat Captain, are most responsible, aren't you?"

Luo actually likes Luffy very much, but it is precisely because of his love that he points out Luffy's mistakes so directly~~~

Marshall D. Teach: "Straw Hat Luffy, don't listen to them!!! A ship is just a means of transportation. If it breaks down, just replace it. Talking such nonsense is stupid!!!"

Franky: "No! I used to think so too! I thought the purpose of a ship was to transport people from one port to another, that ships were created to fulfill that promise! But ever since I learned about the Merry's ship spirit, my perspective has changed! A ship...it's a crew member's best friend!!!"

On the warship in Impel Down~~~

As Luffy listened to the debate in the chat room, his eyes fell on the Merry in the video again...

The scenes of when he just got the Merry emerged in his mind~~~

At that time, he had just officially owned his first real boat and was so happy!!!

But......

Ask yourself!!!

He really didn't do what Red Luffy did, who made a vow to protect Merry the first time he saw her...

He was...

I really just regard the Merry as a means of transportation~~~

But that scene just now...

He broke the main mast of the Merry, and then when he went to catch whales...

I guess little Meili must be very sad~~~

Snapped! !

Luffy gave himself a big slap in the face~~~

Bucky and Crocodile next to him were so scared that they jumped!!!

Buggy's eyes widened: "Hey! Straw Hat boy, what are you doing?"

Crocodile said coldly: "Is that even a question? Can't you see that he's blaming himself for what happened with the ship?"

"Merry..."

Luffy's eyes are red~~~

He recalled the battle on Judicial Island 5.7, when the Merry, unable to continue sailing, dragged its wreckage into the bombing zone of the Demon Slayer Order without hesitation! ! !

When the Straw Hat Pirates had no way out, he personally took them away...

It can be said that...

Their lives were given by Meili~~~

Without Merry, the story of the Straw Hat Pirates would have ended on Judicial Island!

Snapped! !

Luffy slapped himself again!

"what!"

Buggy rubbed his heart and said, "Hey, hey, hey, Straw Hat Boy, let's talk it over nicely. Don't be so jumpy, okay? It's scary..."

Tears welled up in Luffy's eyes~~~

I abused Meili many times, and Meili treated me like her first love...

I......,

What a non-human!!!

When Luffy thought about what he had done to Merry, and then thought about how much Red Luffy valued Merry, he felt extremely regretful.

He remembered what Red Luffy said in the video before...

I practiced very hard, just to avoid becoming like those corpses one day~~~

I practiced so hard because I didn't want to see the things I wanted to protect destroyed and be powerless one day~~~

If only I had understood this truth earlier!!!

How great it would be if I had started practicing early!!!

If I had the strength of Red Luffy at 17 when I went to sea at the age of 14, the ending of the Merry might not be like this~~~
