Luffy, how can you become the Pirate King if you don't work hard!

Luffy looked at Kuma not far away and said, "Everyone knows about what happened two years ago, right? He's the one who got us out of danger back then."

Big Bear stood in the corner, expressionless.

Bartholomew Kuma, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, was the one who sent the Straw Hat crew flying to various places two years ago!

"I examined his body, and just as Luffy said, he has now become a cyborg, just like me."

Franky said, "But he's very different from me. His consciousness is reduced to a very tiny bit, sealed within this body."

"I know more about this matter."

Luffy said, "It was a deal between me and Kuma, and he was a cadre of the Revolutionary Army. That was part of the reason he helped us escape."

In any case, two years ago, their group faced two Marine Admirals and Luffy's grandfather, the Marine hero.

That kind of fighting power was absolutely beyond their capabilities. In a sense, the Straw Hat crew was saved by Kuma.

After Luffy arrived at Amazon Lily, he learned that Ace was to be executed, which led to the Impel Down War.

Therefore,

“After that war, I always kept Big Bear with me.”

Luffy frowned and said, "The World Government may have a deal with Kuma, but I can't just stand by and watch him be turned into a mindless war machine by the World Government."

Kuma has done the Straw Hat crew a favor.

Luffy didn't know whether his decision was right or wrong, because there was clearly a deal between Kuma and the World Government.

However, he couldn't just stand by and watch the bear's consciousness be erased.

Moreover, that deal...

Suddenly, information flashed into Luffy's mind.

A hint of murderous intent flashed across his face.

"It was a deal between Satan, one of the Five Elders, and Kuma that made Kuma a Shichibukai and turned him into a humanoid weapon of the Navy, undergoing complete physical modification and ultimately abandoning all thought and self."

"Why?"

"Bonnie."

"Bonnie?"

Everyone remembered Bonney, who was also on the ship two years ago and was mistaken for a member of the Straw Hat crew, but was eventually sent away by Kuma.

"Bonnie suffers from a deadly disease called Bluescale, and Vegapunk is the one who can cure Bonnie's disease."

Luffy said, "Satan exploited Kuma's weakness to force him to make a deal."

When I see that guy again, I'm going to chop him down with one blow!

"In any case, it's a good thing that Big Bear's consciousness wasn't completely erased, and we've also seen Bonnie. Her illness has been cured, right?"

This is a stroke of luck amidst misfortune.

"In the end, Big Bear was undoubtedly a great benefactor to our group, and we must remember this."

Franky nodded and said, "While Big Bear is still on the ship, I will try to restore his consciousness."

Luffy nodded.

Franky's technology, learned from Vegapunk, might actually work.

As the ship sank, the sea became increasingly distant, the light grew dimmer, and the bright sunlight disappeared from sight.

As you go deeper, it will only get colder.

Nika felt nothing at all; she was already feeling hot from drinking.

"Hey, there's so much seafood, let's go get some!" Zoro invited Luffy.

"That's true!"

Luffy's eyes lit up instantly, only to be punched on the forehead by Nami next to him, who revealed her shark-like teeth. "You two, stop joking!"

What is a coated ship?

If they break, they'll be crushed by the pressure of the ocean floor!

Seeing Luffy looking bored while discussing knowledge with Nami, Vivi couldn't help but laugh, feeling as if she had returned to the feeling of their previous voyage.

"Oh right, how about we take a picture?" Weiwei remembered that she had brought her camera.

It's a super new model.

This is the first time everyone has gathered in two years, and with the addition of new friends, it would be perfect to create a memorable moment.

"Oh, that's a good idea."

Who will take the photos?

"I'll do it." Vivi stretched out her hand, and the wind in the air transformed into a hand, sending the camera flying away.

She is now very skilled at using the Wind-Wind Fruit.

Click, the image freezes.

The first photo of the Straw Hat crew reuniting after two years has been released.

"Hey, Luffy, I need to get my clothes."

Nami felt that the little suit she was wearing was no longer enough to keep out the cold.

“I’ll go too.” Merry excitedly wanted to go with her, but Robin hugged her with a smile. “Let’s not. Our navigator seems to have something to say to the captain.”

Merry pursed her lips.

What's there for the two of them to say?

It's just those same old things!

It seems like Nami and Robin have some kind of deal between them, and they're actually teaming up?

But she didn't struggle, because she was a ship spirit!

Could any movement on this ship escape her keen eyes?

Sure enough, they went to their room to get clothes, so how did they end up on the Going Merry instead of the Sonny?

They say they're going to study, but what are they actually learning?

"Huh?!"

It was visibly clear that Melli's pretty face was flushed red.

"Oh my, it's starting so soon?" Robin chuckled, covering her mouth. "I thought the reward would be something else."

Tengetsu: "???"

She looked at Perona.

Perona: "......"

Don't look at me, I don't understand either!

By the way, does this ship not need a navigator now?

She was practically a navigator herself, considering that the chances of a coated ship successfully reaching Fishman Island were only about 30%. This immense burden suddenly fell on her shoulders.

"I'll go check the water flow," Perona sighed.

“Me too!” Merry volunteered!

"Are you alright?" Perona glanced at Merry, whose cheeks were flushed.

This should be a cool breeze, so why does she look so hot?

But then she remembered.

That's right, the Straw Hat crew has Merry, their ship spirit, so they don't need to worry about these things.

No wonder.....

Perona stared at what lay before her and fell silent.

Zoro and Sanji are having a heated argument over who comes first and who comes last.

Chopper and Usopp are watching a performance by the tech robot Franky.

Brooke sings Binks's Wine.

"It seems like there's nothing else to do. Shall we play some cards?" Robin invited with a smile.

Chapter 430 I'm Not Afraid of Anything (8k)

Generally speaking, in order to reach Fishman Island, in addition to relying on a compass, you also need an excellent navigator. After all, the environment in the deep sea is very complex. Whether it is the complex environment or the ocean currents, one careless move could cause the entire ship to sink to the bottom of the sea.

It would be terrible if an obstacle broke the bubble wrap or if we got on the wrong current.

"Once you enter the deep ocean currents, it can take thousands of years to get back to the surface, yo ho ho ho~"

Brooke stood to the side, holding her violin, singing and telling corny jokes in a slightly intimidating tone that made the audience feel as if they were right there in the scene.

The two cowards were terrified of this.

"Over a thousand years?!"

Chopper covered his mouth with his hoof, his eyes wide open.

Usopp's long nose stood on end in fright:

"Are you kidding me? Wouldn't I turn into a fossil on the seabed?!"

“That’s right, that’s right. Your long nose will be mistaken for a coral reef by sea creatures, yohohoho~” Brooke added.

"No!"

The two embraced and screamed in agony.

Franky poked his head out of the cabin and struck his signature pose: "Super~ Don't worry! I've got the Sonny, which I designed."
