The Great Voyage: The Props Master on the Straw Hat Ship

“Your original ship was really too old and outdated. I made some major modifications to it without damaging the overall structure.”

Franky smugly drank his cola, "It's not just some of my own ideas, but also some of the records and insights my master had on modifying Roger's pirate ship that he left behind."

"Therefore, I have also applied some of the techniques and modifications that my master made on the Oro Jackson to your ship."

"Judging from the current results, it's incredibly fast and amazing, wow!!"

When Franky mentioned this, he got excited again and started wiggling his buttocks.

He was extremely satisfied with his masterpiece!

"Inspect your ships."

Mr. Iceberg, equally satisfied, also smiled broadly and extended his hand to Luffy and his crew.

Immediately after he finished speaking, Luffy and the others cheered and rushed onto the deck.

The deck made of grass, along with various recreational facilities such as slides and swings, immediately caught Luffy and his crew's attention.

They were like poor young men who had just arrived in the city, never having seen such a magnificent ship before, staring wide-eyed, wanting to take in everything.

"Tap tap?"

Merry, also wearing his signature raincoat and waving a small hammer, appeared in everyone's sight.

"You've changed too, Merry!!"

Luffy looked at his crew with a broad smile.

At this moment, despite the changes in the ship's hull, the raincoat that Merry was wearing was now shaped like a series of small suns.

The hammer in his hand had its head shaped like a sun lion, exactly like the prow of the ship.

It kept waving its little hammer there, showing off its colorful clothes to Luffy and the others, its smile so bright it couldn't be hidden.

It seems to be in even better condition now than before!

On the renovated Merry, the deck area appeared so bright and spacious.

Luffy and the others couldn't wait to look into the inner room.

To their surprise, they discovered that the ship was much more spacious than before, with a total of four floors!

There are three decks above the deck and one deck below the deck!

The first floor has the rooms for the boys, and instead of those plain hammocks, they have proper bunk beds!

The room also has a washbasin and various toiletries, as well as an alarm clock, a trough-style heater, and a wardrobe for storing things, which is a significant improvement over the original boys' room.

In addition, this floor also houses an aquarium with a huge fish tank where visitors can observe various types of fish.

Well, the premise is that you don't put predatory fish like sharks in it.

This floor also has an energy supply room, filled with plenty of cola, which can launch Franky's exclusive special moves, "Mad Jet" and "Lion Roar Cannon".

As for the second floor, it is naturally the room where Nami and Robin live, which is undoubtedly much more luxurious than the boys' room.

Moreover, there is a vanity in the center of the wall next to the entrance, which contains various toiletries, and a cabinet next to it also stores various wines and tea sets.

It has all the standard amenities, such as sofas, beds, hammocks, and dressing tables, making it much more luxurious than a boy's room.

In addition to the girls' room, there is a health room specifically for Zoro and Ayumi to train and store the "Canned Food Workshop", as well as a kitchen for Sanji to cook.

Franky only learned of the existence of the "Canned Food Workshop" after being reminded by Zoro and Ayumi, so he designed a space that was more than enough to hold it!

Requesting flowers........

In addition, there is a fish tank opening here, which is where you throw the fish you catch into the aquarium below.

If you want to eat fish, you can catch it from here. The fish tank has a completely rainproof and sealed opening.

As for the third floor, it's the bathroom for the girls, and the library where everyone except Luffy keeps their books.

Sanji's cookbooks and recipes, Robin's history books and travelogues, Nami's island guides and navigation books, Chopper's medical books and medicine recipes, and so on.

And there's Nami's room, where she keeps her logbook and has a measuring machine, and a medical room specifically for Chopper, where he researches medicine.

It can be said that the three floors above are fully equipped with all kinds of functional facilities, which are particularly to everyone's liking!

Below the deck, there is a factory where Usopp researches various inventions, a weapons room and ammunition room where Franky develops new ship equipment, and a repair room containing various ship repair equipment.

The future General Franky was placed in this place by Franky.

Besides these rooms, the remaining unused space was transformed by Franky into a huge warehouse.

... 0

Things like the Straw Hat crew's harvest, Nami's orange tree and Waver, Usopp's shellfish, etc., are all placed here.

It's fair to say that Franky and Iceberg have considered every single aspect of the Straw Hat Pirates' lives!

The rooms were tailored to each individual's room and profession, taking great care of their needs.

The entire Straw Hat Pirates crew, having completed their inspection, were extremely satisfied!

"Hey, how about that? I wasn't wrong, was I?"

Franky, holding up his arms with the blue five-pointed star, exclaimed happily:

"I absolutely, absolutely, absolutely will not let you down!!!"

"Thank you so much, Franky!!!"

Luffy and the rest of the Straw Hat crew were all sincerely thanking them.

Link touched the tall mainmast, which had an observation cabin and all sorts of equipment, and marveled at Franky's exceptional craftsmanship.

To be able to master this technology in just a few days and completely transform the Going Merry like this is truly amazing!!

"We have also checked and tested all the performance aspects of this ship."

Barry, with a cigarette dangling from his lips, chuckled below, "Let's put it this way: it can completely withstand the ravages of the climate in the latter half of the Grand Line, the New World."

"Of course, that's assuming you don't capsize."

"Furthermore, as long as nothing unexpected happens and the pilot handles it properly, navigating the Fishman Island at a depth of 10,000 meters with the coating on should be no problem at all!!"

"I've been building ships for half my life, and this is the first time I've ever seen a ship with such amazing performance!!"

Barry also gave a thumbs up there, and was very proud to have been involved in building such a ship.

"We can conquer any sea, and even reaching the ends of the earth is not a dream!!"

"Who knows, maybe one day you guys will really become famous again in the New World, or even become the next Pirate King. Then this ship, and us who helped build it, will also become famous, hahaha!!"

He has no self-control and started laughing out loud.

After hearing Barry's assurance, Luffy and Usopp's last trace of worry and doubt vanished.

Everyone's faces were filled with anticipation and longing for the future; they couldn't wait for the adventure to come!

244 New names!! Sunny? Going Merry? Captain Straw Hat, I accept your invitation!

"Guys, let's pack our things."

Luffy, in a moment of impulsiveness, declared, "Let's try to set sail today!!"

"Oh oh oh!!"

This time, no one had any problems.

With this crucial issue of the ship resolved, everyone was free from any mental burden regarding navigation.

No, there's another guy with a problem.

"This ship is really great in every way."

Luffy remarked with some regret, "It's just that a five-meter-tall bronze statue hasn't been built yet~"

Others: "...Just what kind of obsession do you have with the bronze statue, and its five-meter height?!"

A group of people were there, all complaining about Luffy.

"Also, before you set off, there's one more important question!!"

At this moment, Franky stopped everyone from making their preparations and suddenly said solemnly.

"what is the problem?"

Luffy, who was preparing to move all the watery meat into his room, tilted his head and asked.

"Although it was modified from the Merry, strictly speaking, it can be considered a rebirth."

Franky crossed his arms and said very seriously:

"I think it should be given a completely new name!!"

A completely new name?!

The others listened thoughtfully and said "730," but Usopp was the first to object:

"What are you talking about? It's Merry!!"

Usopp didn't want to change the name of the ship that carried his fond memories of Syrup Village.

"And Merry has already appeared, and you're just going to rename it like that?!"

Usopp pointed to Merry, the ship spirit that Ann had manifested.

"Oops, I think you misunderstood me, long-nosed guy?"

Franky waved his hand dismissively and said, "Merry is still Merry, of course. I know very well what it means to you."

"But what about its former name? Shouldn't it be changed?"

"Former name?!"

Usopp was taken aback by what he heard.

"That's right, I remember the full name of the Going Merry, it's something like 'Going Merry', isn't it?"

Franky pushed up his sunglasses. "Now you've made it this far, and you're completely transformed, facing the seas ahead with a brand new look."

"Shouldn't we just change the name to [Merry] while keeping it the same?!"

The full name of the Going Merry is "Going Merry".

However, in the animated version, due to the pronunciation of neon English, those who know it will understand, it was misheard as "Golden Merry," which translates to "Golden Merry."

In other words, Merry has his real name as well as a prefix.

Just like Roger's Oro Jackson.

The ship's name is Jackson, and the prefix "Auro" means "gold" in Spanish.

This perfectly matches Roger himself, who represents gold. His name, Gol D. Roger, has "Gol" and "D" that together form "Gold," meaning gold.

"It's just a change of name..."

Luffy thought about it for a moment and nodded reasonably.

"Indeed, Merry has changed a lot and needs a brand new name to commemorate him!"

He said this, but his eyes gleamed with eager anticipation.

"Let's name it 'Black Bear, White Bear, Lion, Merry'!!"

Luffy immediately raised his hand and gave that title.

"Who would choose such a name?!"

Usopp delivered a chop to his forehead.

"Then let's call it the 'Tiger, Grey Wolf, Lion, Merry'!!"

"Is there any difference between this and before?!"

"Or is it the [Jumping Fish Octopus Chimpanzee Merry]?"

"You did this on purpose, didn't you?!"

Usopp started grabbing Luffy's collar and shaking him.

"Ugh, these names are awful! So, when it comes to naming, you really have to rely on me!"

Franky immediately struck a pose and grinned smugly, "And that Iceberg guy, he also has those weird names, and they sound really awful!!" "Is Uncle Iceberg named too?!"

Nami and Chopper looked at the iceberg with some curiosity.
