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

"Not staying here?" Nami was taken aback.

"You're planning to take it with you? It's such a big ship, how are you going to carry it? You can't just tow it along behind the Going Merry, can you?"

"It doesn't seem like a bad idea, it's pretty cool." Luffy only managed to say half a sentence before Nami glared at him and shut him up.

"Think it over carefully before you speak!"

Luffy shrank back and continued to think honestly. That thing was many times bigger than the Thousand Mile Ship. Who could pull whom?

However, that scene was quite captivating. The next destination was Elbaf, the land of giants, and Hades would certainly be a perfect match for the giants.

He even wondered if Hades himself might be a ship carrying giant soldiers.

Not far away, Shirahoshi, who had heard the sound, had already sneaked over, and then her eyes met Luffy's, before she secretly looked away again.

So Luffy grinned and went over to ask, "Shirahoshi, do you have any good ideas?"

Shirahoshi chuckled sheepishly, then said hesitantly, "Lord Luffy, I actually have a pretty good idea about Pluton."

"what idea?"

"Exactly! I can have giant sea kings carry Pluto along. Franky said Pluto isn't afraid of being submerged, and if all else fails, we can coat it with a protective coating. Franky and Usopp both have that ability..."

"what?"

Nami was the first to be stunned.

I saw those giant sea monsters on the seabed, but I didn't investigate them further.

Shirahoshi's identity is not a fully public secret within the Straw Hat crew.

"Because I am the Sea King, the giant sea kings will listen to me. If it were them, they should be able to lift up Pluto."

Nami: "Sea King?!"

She looked at Luffy as if seeking validation.

"I almost forgot, it's decided then!"

"Don't you need to explain to me why Shirahoshi is the Sea King first?"

Luffy was grabbed by the clothes and questioned by Nami.

It took me a while to accept this fact.

In other words, the Straw Hat Pirates now possess both Poseidon and Pluton, two ancient weapons.

That would make them practically invincible in this vast ocean!

Then Luffy saw Nami cheer and hug Shirahoshi, nuzzling her face against hers.

"Women's moods really come and go quickly." Shirahoshi must be having a tough time. Luffy looked at Shirahoshi, her face flushed and she was almost out of breath, which reminded him of his own expressions at times.

However, Nami belatedly realized, "What's so special about traveling the world with legendary ancient weapons?"

"Having another ship is never a bad thing!" Luffy said matter-of-factly.

"You're quite carefree."

"hey-hey."

Luffy stood up with a smile, "Then I'll go find Franky and the others!"

"Hey! Your injuries haven't healed yet!"

"Alright, alright! Chopper's agreed!"

Chopper said it was fixed, not healed!

Luffy ignored Nami's shouts. He was also quite curious about Pluton, having learned of its existence since Alabasta and its location along with Robin.

It appeared very soon.

Not far away, Hades was quietly anchored on the sea.

It was several times larger than the Thousand Sunny, and its entire body was black. The ship was covered with complex and dazzling patterns. These patterns were not decorations, but some kind of technological structure that Luffy could not understand at all.

Franky was standing at the bow of the ship, head tilted back, mouth agape, eyes filled with fanaticism.

"SUPER! This thing is SUPER beyond belief!"

Franky spread his arms wide, striking a super pose.

Some people nearby whispered among themselves, wondering if this person was a pervert or something.

Usopp felt embarrassed to be with him.

"Frankie, can you please stop yelling so loudly? My eardrums are going to burst!"

"How can I express my feelings if I don't shout at a time like this!"

Franky whirled around and grabbed Usopp by the shoulder. "Usopp! Did you see that?! The structure of this ship! Its propulsion system! The cooling system for its main cannon! It's all SUPER-level design!"

"I see it! I see it! Let go of my shoulder first!"

"Did you see that!"

"I said I saw it!!"

Franky released Usopp's shoulder and then turned and lunged at Pluto's ship.

He stretched out his finger and tapped on the hull, then closed his eyes and listened carefully to the echo.

"Hmm, this material isn't ordinary steel, nor is it the Adam Tree. What is it?"

Luffy walked over and said, "Franky, you're not thinking of taking this apart, are you?"

"I'm not going to take it apart! I'm going to study it! Study it, understand!"

"up to you."

Zoro clearly wasn't very interested in Pluton. To him, neither ancient weapons nor legendary warships were as practical as a good sword.

He had heard that Wano Country also had a fine sword, and he really wanted to go and see it.

Luffy walked to the bow of the ship, looked up at the towering mast of the Dark Lord, and saw sunlight streaming down from the top of the mast, casting a long shadow on the deck.

To be honest, this ship is indeed very big.

It is so large that standing on its deck makes one feel incredibly small.

But Luffy doesn't feel any pressure.

He reached out and patted the deck twice, then grinned and said, "Not bad! Very sturdy! Now we have another ship to carry us on our voyages!"

"Sail?"

Franky poked his head out from the hull. "Luffy, are you serious? This ship is so much bigger than the Thousand Mile. How are you going to sail it?"

"Shirahoshi said that the Sea Kings could carry it!"

"Sea Kings?"

This was the first time the group had learned that Shirahoshi could control Aquaman.

Luffy gave an explanation, which immediately shocked the others.

Now, not only do we have Pluto, but Neptune is already on board?

Franky paused for a moment, then nodded vigorously. "That would be great! And as long as this ship is here, even if we encounter another attack of that level, we can handle it. It's absolutely amazing."

"Hey, hey, hey, do you want to run into that kind of thing again?"

Usopp shuddered. "Once is enough."

The oppressive aura emanating from that Heavenly King still makes my legs weak when I think about it.

"What's there to be afraid of!"

Luffy patted Usopp on the shoulder, "I'm here for you!"

"It's precisely because you're here that I'm afraid!"

Why?!

"Why do you think that is?!"

Usopp, terrified, kept his distance from Luffy.

He always kept in mind the saying: "The captain is in the most danger when things are not dangerous."

Amidst the commotion, Luffy suddenly sensed something and turned to look at the distance.

On the other side of the port, two kings of the Mink Tribe were walking towards him.

It was Nekomamushi, the leader, and Duke Inuarashi. They had also suffered serious injuries in this war, but the smiles on their faces showed that they were still very happy.

After all, their wish has been fulfilled.

Wano Country has opened its doors.

"Straw Hat Guy, we've come to say goodbye," the Cat Viper leader said bluntly.

"Saying goodbye?"

Luffy blinked. "Are you leaving?"

"Ah."

Duke Inuarashi nodded. "The matter in Wano Country is settled. Lord Oden's last wish has been fulfilled, and Kaido has been defeated by you. The purpose of our Mink Clan staying here has also come to an end. We plan to return to Zou."

Zou is the true homeland of their fur tribe.

As for how Wano Country will develop in the future, since Lord Oden's father is still alive, there's no need for his retainers to worry about it.

"I see. Be careful on the road then," Luffy said.

The leader of the cat vipers burst out laughing:

"I thought you'd at least try to persuade us to stay, Luffy."

Eh?

Isn't this the kind of thing Nami and the others like to do?

How come even fur-bearing tribes have learned this?

"Haha, just kidding,"
