One Piece: Trainers on the Straw Hat Pirates

Despite its enormous size, it does not affect its speed of movement in the slightest.

As a result, Luffy, who used the elasticity to board the ship, was temporarily suspended behind Merry.

The Straw Hat crew, hanging behind Luffy, were naturally left in an even more disheveled state, suspended high in the air.

"That bastard! I'm going to chop/beat him to death!!!"

Chapter 531 Arrival—Laugh Tale!

After a series of farcical events, the Straw Hat crew finally managed to board the Going Merry.

A moment later, Luffy, with a head full of bumps, blinked his swollen, bruised eyes.

He didn't understand why he, who was about to become the Pirate King, had to suffer such inhumane treatment.

It's just a swing that left you hanging at 10,000 meters in the air for five minutes.

It's not like you're actually going to die, is it really necessary to get so angry?

The injured Luffy was completely baffled.

But the crowd, having already vented their anger by beating him up, no longer paid attention to him.

Nami simply raised one hand, and a virtual projection appeared on the deck of the Going Merry.

Above the image is a constantly rotating blue planet.

It was none other than the legendary blue planet they were currently on.

At this moment, three constantly flashing red dots have been marked on the blue star, which are naturally the three coordinates revealed in the previous three road sign history texts.

In an instant, Nami quickly tapped a few times on the virtual projection, and a brand new red projection dot suddenly appeared.

Immediately afterwards, the projection of the blue star suddenly magnified, and the four red dots stopped flashing. Instead, they extended into two straight line segments, which intersected at a certain point on the blue star, forming a new coordinate point.

"I was right!"

Seeing the new coordinates that suddenly appeared between the four points, the Straw Hat crew, who were gathered in a circle, suddenly brightened up.

"I never imagined that the legendary Laugh Tale really wasn't on the sea."

"No wonder no one has been able to find any trace of Raphdru all these years!"

"But this location... is it the seabed?! Strange, it doesn't quite seem like it. If it is the seabed, this is far too deep!"

"perhaps……"

Looking at the markers above the virtual projection, Crimson suddenly spoke:

"This isn't your average seabed; it's at a much lower depth!"

"Even deeper!?" Nami's expression shifted slightly. "Red, are you saying that Laugh Tale is actually beneath the sea... inside the Earth's crust?"

"In short, why don't we just go to the site and see for ourselves!"

Red smiled slightly, then snapped his fingers, and a faint healing light descended from the sky, landing on Luffy and instantly healing his head injuries.

"Captain, has the location of the final island been confirmed?"

"So, shouldn't we... set off now!?"

"Hahaha, of course!!!"

The carefree Luffy quickly forgot the beating his crew had just given him. He laughed loudly, then forcefully spread his arms wide and shouted to the sky:

"One Piece!!!"

"I'm determined to be one!!!!"

The long, drawn-out sound was like an exciting overture to an adventure, or like an article coming to an end.

At this moment, what the Pirate King and Laugh Tale actually represent is no longer important.

For Luffy, this was destined to be the last time he uttered the dream that had permeated the first half of his life.

His later life will surely be filled with even more exciting adventures and stories.

That's where he really wants to go!

……

……

The massive Merry, like a sharp longsword, cut through the vast sea of ​​clouds and then sailed towards the edge of the new world!

Water Star Island is the last island in the Grand Line that can be recorded in the Log Pose.

Generally speaking, this is the final destination for the vast majority of powerful pirates.

Even in the New World, a pirate crew that can make it this far is one in a million.

But fate just loves to play tricks on people.

Over the centuries, countless pirates have come and gone, only to end up on this desolate Water Star Island, where they wasted their lives for a hollow title because they could not find another island.

Today, however, the Going Merry, carrying the world's strongest pirate crew, suddenly fell from the sky, piercing a large hole in the thick clouds above.

The bright sunshine shone down on the area, bringing light back to the small island that had been shrouded in clouds for several days.

However, the suddenly appearing Merry had no intention of stopping at Water Star Island. Its speed did not decrease at all, and it moved forward at a terrifying supersonic speed, creating gusts of wind.

For the strong in the world of One Piece, breaking the sound barrier is no longer a difficult task.

Even the punching speed they practice on a daily basis is several times the speed of sound.

But for a giant warship, especially one capable of soaring through the air, the visual impact of breaking the sound barrier is nothing short of breathtaking.

Whew!!

A howling gust of wind suddenly swept across the sky above Shuixianxing Island, heading directly towards the area below the island.

……

……

"This direction..."

Above the sky, Nami, the Calamity Witch, was completely unaffected by the air currents. Instead, she stood at the bow of the ship, carefully sensing the direction the Going Merry was traveling.

"I was right! Not far ahead should be the direction of Upside-Down Mountain!"

"In other words, we are getting closer and closer to the starting point of the Grand Line!"

Suddenly realizing something, Nami turned around, returned to the center of the deck, summoned a virtual image of Blue Star, and began operating it rapidly.

Although it was not yet visible to the naked eye, the Going Merry's positioning system accurately marked that if they continued to travel for another half an hour or so, they would be able to return to the very beginning of the Grand Line!

"Strange, could the legendary Laugh Tale really be located beneath Reverse Mountain!?"

Looking at the markings on the virtual image, Usopp immediately made a bold guess.

In fact, ever since Red raised the Straw Hat crew's standards of vision, there have been many different opinions about the location of Laugh Tale.

The idea that Laugh Tale is at the bottom of Reverse Mountain was proposed by someone in the Straw Hat Pirates long ago.

After all, if there's a Fishman Island thousands of meters below Mary Geoise, isn't it perfectly normal for there to be something beneath Upside-Down Mountain?!

Based on this speculation, Crimson had even sent merfolk from a large fleet to investigate.

Unfortunately, the result was disappointing.

Below Upside Down Mountain, there really does seem to be just a mountain wall, nothing else.

The surrounding seabed was completely dark, with no indication of the existence of any special islands.

But now, looking at the location that the historical road sign points to, the Straw Hat crew is suddenly uncertain.

"It shouldn't be below the Reverse Mountain."

Just then, Jinbe gently shook his head, denying the speculation.

After all, the fish-men he sent out were several high-ranking members of his original Sun Pirates crew.

Although their strength may not be that great, their ability to get things done is still trustworthy.

"It's definitely not below the Upside-Down Mountain!"

Suddenly, Crimson spoke up.

The moment he finished speaking, the Merry, which was traveling at high speed in the air, suddenly came to a stop.

The immense inertia caused the Straw Hat crew to sway slightly.

The next second, the ship spirit Little Mermaid appeared directly beside Crimson and the others.

"Everyone, please get ready!"

"We're about to dive into the underwater world!"

Little Mermaid smiled slightly at the Straw Hat crew, striking a pose reminiscent of a train announcer.

Immediately, large amounts of soapy liquid seeped out from under Crimson and the others' feet, quickly enveloping the entire massive Merry.

Pfft!

A slight ripple in the air was heard.

Suddenly, the soap bubble liquid, which shimmered with iridescent colors under the sunlight, expanded and formed a huge circular coating that enveloped the entire Merry.

Although it does not have the functions of a submarine, the current Merry is already equipped with a professional automatic coating system.

While the deep sea might not be as easy to navigate as one would enter an empty field, nothing could stop Mary from taking action at this point.

puff...

The coated Merry fell from the sky, crashing into the sea and creating a huge crater.

The surging seawater roared and crashed, surging outwards in all directions as the giant ship rammed into it.

As the seawater flowed back down with the ocean waves, the Merry had already disappeared from the waters.

In the tranquil deep sea, a colossal creature suddenly appeared, frightening away all the surrounding fish and shrimp, and quickly sank into the depths of the ocean.

Didi... Didi...

The device, representing the detection signal, emitted a rhythmic, slight beeping that drowned out the Straw Hat crew's heartbeats, giving them a strange sense of peace in the dark depths of the sea.
