Sailing: His comprehension is against the sky, and he comprehends the Eight Gates at the beginning.

"It looks about four times the size of Merry!"

"What a huge side sail! It looks like it's going to put me, the navigator, to the test!"

"What kind of flower is that at the bow of the boat?"

I think it should be a lion!

Seeing everyone's surprised and excited reaction, Franky was very proud and said.

"Go and see inside the ship! I've packed all the luxurious furniture you entrusted to me, as well as everything that was originally on the Going Merry. I guarantee you'll be even more surprised!"

Upon hearing this, everyone was overjoyed again, their eyes filled with anticipation, and they excitedly boarded the ship.

Luffy couldn't contain his excitement and jumped onto the deck.

The huge deck was completely covered with lawn, looking like a courtyard, which was very comfortable and pleasing to the eye.

Next to the entrance to the cabin, there are two small trees with a swing hanging between them.

The ship has a total of three decks.

It connects to the lawn via a staircase and a slide.

At the top of the third floor is a botanical garden built for Nochigo.

The place is now planted with orange trees brought from Cocoyasi Village, as well as some flowers and plants that Nokiko used to grow.

The third floor mainly serves as workspaces and activity rooms for each member of the Straw Hat crew.

It contains research facilities, a library, a surveying room, a medical room, bathrooms, and so on.

The second floor consists entirely of girls' rooms, and a smaller bathroom specifically for girls.

There is also a fish tank opening on the deck outside the second floor.

The fish tank connects to a huge aquarium on the first floor.

You can put the fish you catch in here and feed them.

The first floor area is the largest.

The boys' dormitory, dining hall, and kitchen are all located here.

In addition to these, there is also a huge water bar.

One wall of the Water Bar is a huge aquarium that connects to the fish tank on the second floor.

The walls at the entrance are covered with all kinds of alcoholic beverages.

They can usually drink, sing, or engage in various entertainment and leisure activities here, which is very pleasant and comfortable.

Below the first floor, there is also a basement level.

The underground floor has a complex structure, containing not only ammunition depots but also an ingeniously designed soldier dock system.

When discussing the soldier dock system, Franky called everyone together and spoke to them with a mysterious expression.

"The Going Merry has been fully refitted."

"We're currently in Dock 2!"

"Just you wait and see!"

As he spoke, Franky began operating the control panel.

Soon, the dock channel in the center of the ship began to switch.

It only stopped when it landed on the number 2.

Amidst the expectant gazes of Luffy and his crew, the modified Going Merry was launched and placed on the sea next to the Sunny.

The moment they saw the Going Merry being refitted, everyone's eyes widened in astonishment.

The current Merry has had its mast and cabins removed.

Instead, a driver's cab was installed.

The entire hull was transformed into a shuttle shape.

It is about one-third smaller than before.

In Luffy's eyes, it looked very much like the speedboat he had traveled to the world before.

According to Frankie's introduction.

Everyone boarded the Going Merry and experienced it for themselves.

The current Going Merry is essentially a large-scale Wii-Beast; you can't operate it without some talent.

So Nami became the captain of the ship.

After experiencing it firsthand and listening to Franky's explanation, Luffy also gained a detailed understanding of the Going Merry.

Thanks to their modifications, the Merry is now able to change its speed and move forward at different speeds.

The specific principle is to achieve the purpose by stimulating different numbers of jet-blown vortexes.

The more energy is stimulated, the faster the speed.

The Merry's current top speed surpasses the top speed of any sailing ship in a strong tailwind...

It could even reach twice the original top speed of the Going Merry, which is extremely exaggerated.

In addition, the ship also has an emergency braking system that is installed by reversing the jet breech, which can be used to brake the aircraft.

Overall, Luffy and the Straw Hat crew were very satisfied with the experience.

After touring the new ship and experiencing the Merry, everyone was amazed.

They all excitedly thanked Frankie.

"Franky, thank you so much for building such a wonderful ship!"

"Yes, Franky! This ship and the Going Merry are both fantastic!"

"You are really amazing!"

Listening to the Straw Hat crew's thanks and praise, Franky smiled happily, but then shook his head and said...

"It's not just my achievement!"

"Espagu and several foremen also put in a lot of effort!"

Upon hearing this, Luffy and the others looked towards Espagu and his companions.

They discovered that they had woken up sometime earlier.

The Straw Hat crew thanked them again.

After some polite exchanges, Luffy suddenly spoke up.

"All right!"

"Now we have a new ship, and the Merry has been refitted."

"It's time to set off..."

"Let's continue our adventure!"

Upon hearing Luffy's words, before the rest of the Straw Hat crew could say anything, Franky was the first to cry out in alarm.

"and many more!"

Are you leaving now?

"I only invited you to visit the ship, I didn't hear that you were planning to leave right away!"

Luffy grinned at Franky and casually said something.

"Oh! This is what I just decided!"

Upon hearing this, Franky immediately shouted.

"Are you kidding me?!"

"You're being way too casual!"

As he spoke, he immediately became flustered and wanted to leave, saying hastily.

"I...I have something to do, I have to go now!"

"We won't see you off!"

After saying that, Franky prepared to leave.

But at that moment, Luffy spoke up.

Are you afraid I'll invite you onto our ship and have you come with us?

Upon hearing this, Franky paused in his tracks and stopped in his tracks.

What Luffy said was exactly what he was worried about.

He knew that if Luffy invited him in person, he would not be able to refuse.

Because he so desperately wanted to go with this ship and witness it become a true dream ship.

But he cannot leave; he must stay here to protect this place and redeem himself for the death of Tom.

Franky stood there, struggling internally for a while, before speaking without turning his head.

"That's right!"

"But I won't go with you."

"So don't bring it up!"

As soon as Franky finished speaking, he heard Luffy say something from behind.

I won't invite you.

Upon hearing this, the rest of the Straw Hat crew looked at Luffy with surprise and confusion, and began to speak.

"What are you saying, Luffy?"

"Didn't we agree to have Franky join us? Why aren't we inviting him?"

"Yes, Luffy! You should think about it again!"

The rest of the Straw Hat crew reluctantly tried to persuade Luffy to let go.

The younger brothers of the Franky family also began to plead.

"Straw Hat Kid, please, 4.1, take your brother with you!"

"It's too dangerous for Big Brother to stay here! Straw Hat Boy, please take him with you!"

While the others were advising and pleading with Luffy, Franky's lips curled into a smile.

It would be best if Luffy didn't invite him, so he wouldn't have to struggle with the decision anymore.

Then, Franky took a step forward, preparing to leave.

However, at that moment, he heard Luffy's voice coming from behind him again.

"Frankie! I'm not inviting you!"

"Because I plan to..."

"I'll take you away by force!"

As soon as Luffy finished speaking, he stretched out his arm and instantly wrapped it around Franky.

Then he spoke to the rest of the Straw Hat crew behind him.

"Hurry up and get on the boat, we're about to set off!"

Upon hearing Luffy's order, some people immediately sprang into action.

However, some people remain skeptical of Luffy's actions.

"Is...is this okay?"

"Why don't we ask Franky for his opinion?"

"Yes! It makes us look like robbers!"

Just as these people were questioning Luffy's banditry, Franky struggled violently and shouted.
