Chapter 133

Sanji's Moon Walk, Luffy's spring-launch, Vivi's flying hammer......

The others who couldn't fly could only honestly climb up the net onto the ship.

Sima Di also flew onto the deck, landing on the fluffy grass — true to Franky's design, this grass deck had been preserved.

Everyone watching couldn't help but twitch at the corners of their eyes......

Won't this really cause a strange smell?

You have to know,

From the cola bottle's perspective, it was sitting in a pitch-dark storeroom, with something dangling above its head, and when taken out it might still be in close contact with......

Tsk!

So beautiful one my lord't look!

And as the originator of it all, Sima Di hadn't expected that a casual act back then would bring out such a "perverted" side of Franky......

The key point is that the cola was still emitting cold air when taken out!

So was it just taken out of a freezer, or had the space been modified into......

If it's the latter, are you sure it won't freeze the little willy?

Compared to Franky's "perversion," the others' spatial pockets were also a Wuhuaba Sect of variety.

The three women including Robin tucked theirs behind their bras, becoming real "two-dimensional oppai," and every scene of retrieving items was a feast for the eyes.

If they misjudged the spot by accident, they'd fumble around looking for the position.

The scene was quite risqué.

Zoro, on the other hand, sewed his into his bandana, so every time he pulled something out it was like digging out earwax.

Sanji's was in the inner pocket of his suit jacket, reportedly storing a full set of cooking utensils and emergency supplies.

Usopp's was much more ordinary — he sewed it into his "weapon pouch," making him a real "treasure chest."

The others were plain and ordinary, no fancy tricks.

"I think we should call it Big Bone Meat..."

"How about Dark Ball..."

"Boss Lionel..."

"Kaya? Ⅴ轥??? 錧? 鮩?

"Cotton Candy..."

"I think Nami..."

Everyone offered their preferred prefix, but none could convince the others.

All just talking past each other.

What did worry the Merry, though, was that the lion-head figurehead was sweating.

Only no one noticed.

Seeing everyone arguing endlessly, they turned their gazes to Sima Di, who was watching the show, and asked him to cast a vote.

Sima Di: "......"

I'm just here enjoying some melon, how did I end up being a judge?

"If I had to say...... this ship was modified by Franky based on the Pluton blueprints, and pirates are famous for loving names like Sun God, Lei Shen, and the like — why not just call it Pluton..."

This prefix could only be called middling, but among a crowd of weird ones, it still won by a large margin.

"Great!" Luffy laughed loudly: "Merry! From now on you'll be called Pluton..."

"Pop—"

Franky popped open a bottle of champagne and splashed it across the deck.

"Woo-hoo~ Launch ceremony complete! Launch!"

"Pluton? Ⅴ轥?? 沩�???

"She's off!"

Amid the cheers of the Straw Hat Pirates,

The Merry used no external force, directly using the originally activated Channel Zero... and slid down from the shipyard into the waterway, drifting downstream and steadily heading out to sea.

Many citizens lined the route to watch, curious about this ship that had made the Galley-La Company announce a suspension of business.

At first Bingshan and the others watched with heartfelt pride — this was a ship they had poured all their effort into building.

Just as Tom had once built a ship for Luo Jie, this felt like a cyclical inheritance.

But gradually they noticed something was off......

"Huh? Mr. Bingshan, isn't the ship sailing farther and farther away?" Barry asked in confusion.

"You're not seeing things! It really is sailing away." Bingshan sighed: "It must be Franky's idea — leaving without saying goodbye...... that's his style."

"Huh?"

"What?"

"We haven't even had a proper farewell!"

Barry and the others were shocked!

They hurriedly sprinted after her, but how could human legs possibly outrun a ship drifting downstream?

In the end they could only stand at the port watching the Merry sail into the distance.

"Bastard Franky!"

"Leaving without a word — we won't forgive you!"

"Next time we meet, we're going to give you a good beating!"

"Do your best on the sea! Hope next time we see you, your bounty has crossed a hundred million!"

"You have to get this ship to Laugh Tale!"

"We'll be waiting for you to come back victorious so we can drink together!"

As they cursed and cursed, the curses gradually turned into blessings.

They had once looked down on Franky, but ever since they learned that all of this was a disguise to hide the "Pluton Blueprints," their contempt had turned into admiration.

Especially the blueprints Franky had designed — they had all benefited enormously from them.

They had originally planned to have a proper drinking session with Franky once the work was finished......

Meanwhile, the members of the Franky Family who had come rushing over after hearing the news could only watch the departing Merry and sigh.

"Boss Franky! You've got to make a name for yourselves out there!"

"We'll follow you as our boss for the rest of our lives!"

"You have to take good care of yourselves!"

"Wuuuuh—"

On the deck of the Merry,

The Straw Hat Pirates had only just realized that this launching ceremony was in fact their departure.

Franky had originally been forcing himself to keep his back turned to Water 7, but once the cursing from Barrie and the others shifted to blessings, and the Franky Family appeared, this stubborn man finally could hold it in no longer.

"Aaargh — that's exactly why I didn't want to say goodbye!"

"Real men don't cry!"

"Aaargh — this is just my body malfunctioning!"

"Aaargh—"

Watching Franky wail loudly in his stubborn pride, the Straw Hat Pirates unanimously chose to ignore him.

Instead, they turned and waved farewell to Bingshan and the others on the shore.

"I'm definitely going to become the Pirate King!" Luffy shouted as if taking an oath.

What answered him was the thumbs-up raised by Bingshan and the shipwrights.
