Pirates: I used a bucket to break Akainu's defense

As a result, the problem returned to the starting point again.

"Can I ask the original size of your ship?"

Cheng Lang scratched his head and looked at Alrita

"Six meters long and five meters wide."

"A small or medium-sized ship, converted into a large ship that is 24 meters long and 20 meters wide." Nami gave the answer after a simple estimate of Cheng Lang's ship.

"Do you want to make do with it? I think we can make a medium-sized fishing boat of about 17 or 18."

"Luffy, your ship should be the small boat that left from my side, right?" Alrita seemed to remember how Luffy appeared. Obviously, he had no ship, so she didn't want her own pirate ship.

At that time, Alrita was too lazy to come over. After all, the ship modified by Cheng Lang was indeed very comfortable, clean and hygienic. Besides, she wanted to chase the Straw Hat Boy at that time, so she was too lazy to waste time selling her pirate ship for money.

"Yes." Luffy answered without any hesitation.

"Then forget it. I know how worn out that boat is. It's fine to use it as a spare boat for ashore. It can be used after some patching. But after these long voyages, don't you think it's been much slower?"

Luffy didn't feel it, but Nami did.

"Indeed, that boat is very slow."

"The wood itself is not good. Coupled with aging and long-term soaking in water, the hull has become heavy and naturally can't run fast. It's fine to run on the calm waters of the East China Sea, but if we really go to the Grand Line, the boat will definitely break down." Alrita spread her hands.

She didn't have much money at the time, so she was frugal in everything. As long as the spare boat could be used, no one cared about the quality. Pirates were good at swimming anyway, so if the boat capsized, they could just swim back.

"This is troublesome." Although Luffy didn't hear the first part, he understood what Alrita said later, that the package was broken.

So even if it is modified, it cannot go to the Grand Line.

Nami also sighed.

She thought about modifying the small boat she got from Buggy, but she imagined that the hull was of the same weight. She had also read some books related to the Grand Line. The time when the mountain was turned upside down alone was enough to eliminate some poorly made ships.

This boat definitely doesn't have the resistance.

Even if it is modified, it is almost the same.

Cheng Lang didn't say anything, leaving several people confused.

After all, during this period of time, there was not only Usopp on board, but also Merry. He did not want his appearance to cause the disappearance of the Golden Merry.

But seeing Luffy so entangled,

He decided to skip the topic for now: "Come to think of it, didn't you encounter anything else today?"

"Anything else? Is there anything else?" Nami asked puzzledly.

Usopp also cast a curious look at him.

Looking at the sunset appearing in the sky, is the time wrong?

The plots in animation and comics have always been continuous, as if time has only passed for a day or two. However, since Cheng Lang came to this world, he can clearly feel one thing, that is, the animation and comics must be triggered coherently due to the needs of the plot, but the reality is that it has been almost a month since Luffy came to this world and he has only recruited Usopp.

At this rate of progress, Cheng Lang doubted whether a year would be enough to reach the Sabaody Archipelago.

You should know that if you want to travel around the world on Blue Star, it will take about 79 days on a modern steam cruise ship. It may not seem like a lot, but this is a steam cruise ship, and most of the time is spent staying in one place for a very short time during the voyage to observe the local customs and people.

However, in the world of One Piece, it is a sailboat, and supplies must be considered. The key is that after reaching the Grand Line, magnetic force needs to be stored before heading to the next island.

Can this round trip take a year?

This doesn't even include the time we have to fight when something happens.

Moreover, the manufacture of wooden boats in the Seven Water City also takes time. Although the different physical conditions in this world can speed up the forging process, it will still take at least one or two months, such as the processing of the wood and the polishing of the decoration.

Completing the first half of the Grand Line within a year is unreasonable no matter how you look at it.

So now the time is wrong, and Cheng Lang can't guarantee whether it is normal.

"If there is anything else, it's probably Usopp..." Nami thought and talked about Usopp.

After hearing this, Cheng Lang immediately understood that it was probably the butterfly effect that happened to him. He and Luffy and others took too long to eat and chat for a while. In the original work, Usopp ran away halfway through the meal.

"Krabatel? There must be something fishy going on. In a sense, your relationship with Ke Ya is beneficial to her condition. In your description, her depressed and unhappy personality has become cheerful. If this person named Crabatel really wants Ke Ya to get better, he will certainly prevent you from having contact with Ke Ya. But most of the time, he will do the same as Butler Meli, turning a blind eye and grasping the right degree to prevent you from further corrupting Ke Ya.

Instead of driving you away directly, such a result would even be counterproductive, pushing the already unhappy young lady into an even more depressed state."

"So this guy named Crabbater really cares about Miss Kaya?"

Cheng Lang gave his own reasonable reminder.

Luffy naturally didn't understand.

And Usopp immediately became alert.

Cheng Lang’s words really hit the point.

Nami frowned after hearing this. She hadn't thought much about it before, but now that it was brought up, it was indeed full of suspicious points.

But obviously suspicion cannot convict a person.

"If nothing unexpected happens, something will probably happen tonight." Alrita made a guess.

"what?!"

"Think about it, usually they just curse and chase you away, but today they're being so persistent and patient that they're pushing you to the limit? But what did you do to Kaya? Nothing, just like always, and they even offered to let you punch them in the end."

"Maybe we are thinking too much." Nami gave another answer.

Cheng Lang spread his hands and said, "If you ask me, this guy named Crabbater should like Miss Kaya. Seeing that Usopp gradually made the depressed Miss cheerful and even her condition improved, he has been feeling unbalanced for a long time. He showed his true colors today. Maybe because Miss Kaya's illness has almost recovered, he can finally drive you away from her. I guess he will confess his love to her tonight."

After changing the way it was said, everyone immediately accepted it.

Then everyone's attention turned to Usopp.

After all, it has turned into a war between rivals in love.

At this time, Usopp's face turned red.

Silent.

Obviously, he is also struggling with his conscience.

"I gonna go see."

Everyone laughed out loud.

Chapter 25 Cats are nocturnal animals

Night falls quietly.

Because of Cheng Lang's words, Usopp rushed to the door of Kaya's mansion.

The mansion was exceptionally quiet at night.

But when he reached the door he hesitated.

He couldn't get over the words that Kaya had said to him during the day.

Besides, this is the first time I'm looking for Kaya so late, so it's inevitable that I'll have some overthinking.

What if Kaya misunderstands me?

He scratched his head, but he still moved the camouflaging leaves away with ease.

Then got in.

Just as he got in, Usopp heard a scream and the sound of breaking glass.

This startled Usopp, and he turned to look at the source of the voice. It was a male voice that sounded slightly familiar.

"It can't be such a coincidence that Cheng Lang really got it right."

Usopp walked in and came to the room where the sound came from. He looked sideways cautiously.

In the room at this moment.

Butler Merry was lying on the ground, blood flowing on the ground.

"?!"

Although Usopp was mentally prepared, he was still frightened.

I started breathing heavily unconsciously.

"Oh no! Kaya is in danger!" Usopp immediately came to the big tree and climbed over it to the branch. The window was closed but the curtains were not drawn. Usopp saw Kaya sleeping soundly.

At this moment, the other party was not awakened at all by Meli's screams.

Something is obviously wrong.

But before Usopp could make any move.

He saw that the door of Kaya's room was open.

It was Clo. He was wearing a black glove on one hand, with five silver-white blades like nails connected to the glove, and bright red blood was dripping on the ground.

Everything told Usopp that Merry lying in the hall was chopped by Crow.

Usopp naturally lay down immediately and didn't show his head.

Being timid by nature, he didn't know what to do at the moment.

My mind went blank.

But when he thought that Ke Ya might be killed, his eyes began to struggle, and he silently reached for the slingshot he always carried with him.

The sound of swords rubbing against each other came through the window and into Usopp's ears.

"No! Kaya must not be in any danger!"

Resolutely, Usopp raised his head and aimed the slingshot at Crow beside the bed.

Obviously, Kuro didn't expect Usopp to suddenly appear outside the window.

The iron ball penetrated the glass.

When it was about to hit Clo, it was spread apart by the cat claw knife.

The crisp sound of glass breaking and metal colliding.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Usopp jumped directly into the room, and the slingshot in his hand could continue to fire projectiles during this time.
