Comparing the two Luffies, this Luffy is so cool!

Luffy looked at Icepago in confusion: "What's going on with him...?"

"Uh..." Espagu scratched his head awkwardly. "Don't mind it, my junior brother is just like that. These are just his quirks. Don't worry, he's fine..."

[As he spoke, Icebagger pointed to his head~~~]

After receiving Ace Pagoda's explanation, Luffy curled his lips in silence.

Franky: "Haha!! I'm finally on board!! I'm having a really good time this week! Um~~super......!!"

Vinsmoke Sanji: "You pervert, it's so embarrassing~~~"

Nico Robin: "Ahahaha~~ Look, Luffy over there is stunned~~~"

Brook: "Luffy thought he was a fool..., Yohohoho~~~"

Usopp: "Hahahaha!!!"

After Franky regained his composure, he said to Luffy, "Well, Straw Hat, you'll be my captain from now on! As for the materials for the ship we're going to build, we'll be using the treasure tree Adam. I just found out there are two on the black market. I might have to put one up for auction soon, and the seller is waiting for the other one to appreciate in value!"

"Is one enough?" Luffy asked suspiciously.

Franky nodded. "That's enough! But if I had two, I'd have more materials! But I heard the seller only wants to sell one."

[“Abundant…”]

Luffy thought of the Merry and said, "If the new ship is big enough, can we design a dock for it?"

"Huh? What do you mean?" Franky obviously didn't understand what Luffy wanted to ask~~~

Luffy turns his gaze to Iceborg: "It's my current ship, the Merry. I was wondering... if the new ship needs to dive, can it take the Merry with it...?"

Luffy didn't have any expertise in shipbuilding, so he was seriously asking the two people in front of him for advice.

[For a pirate group, it is normal to have two ships at the same time. ]

[However, Luffy considered that the Merry could not be modified significantly and could not be transformed into a submersible pirate ship, so he came up with this method.]

After seeing the Merry, Espagu thought for a moment and said, "It's theoretically possible! But I suspect that with this design, the new ship would have to be even larger. It would require at least two Adam's trees, and that might not even be enough."

Luffy thought for a moment, then decided, "Okay! Then buy all the wood from the two Adam trees! If it's not enough, we can use other good materials to make up for it."

Franky looked embarrassed as he said this. "When it comes to shipbuilding, no material in the world can compare to the Treasure Tree Adam! Using other materials would cause inconsistent strength in certain areas of the ship, affecting its performance. While there are materials that could handle it, I'm afraid only the Navy has the technology to create such alloys!!"

Ace Bago nodded and said, "Yes! The Navy's most advanced warships are made of an alloy refined using Vegapunk's technology. While not as good as the Treasure Tree Adam, the gap between the two has been greatly narrowed. However, the main problem is... Although we have the most advanced shipbuilding technology, we cannot manufacture that alloy, and the Navy will not sell it to us."

"Is that so..."

Seeing that both shipbuilding masters were in a dilemma, Luffy also frowned...

[No matter what, he couldn't help but consider the Merry! !]

"Wait! Did you just say alloy...?"

【Suddenly, Luffy thought of something and grabbed Franky's shoulders.】

"Ah? Yes...yes..." Franky looked at Luffy in surprise.

"I have a solution!! Alloy, right?! I have a solution!" Luffy was overjoyed and hurriedly pulled the two of them away~~~

[Soon, they returned to the Merry together! !]

"Wow! He's wearing swimming trunks as casual wear. What a pervert!" Sanji circled around Franky, commenting seriously...

Usopp, on the other hand, was different. He excitedly tapped Franky's arm joints: "You're made of iron! You can still move??"

"Usopp, come and see, there's a small storage on his butt!" Chopper yelled as if he had discovered a treasure.

"So... this is our new partner?"

[Nami is a little speechless~~]

【It's Luffy's decision, so she naturally won't object. 】

Although everyone was surprised by his appearance, Franky was delighted: "Haha~~ I'll be your shipwright from now on. Please take good care of me!"

Franky took a sideways lunge, then put the backs of his hands together and raised them above his head at a 45-degree angle: "Hmm~~super......!!"

[The entire action and slogan flowed smoothly and seamlessly~~~]

[“…” Luffy and Icebagger both covered their faces and turned their heads away~~~]

[Oh my god, we don’t know this idiot~~]

【"Wow!!"】

[However, Usopp and Chopper almost reached orgasm instantly~~~]

[Both of them imitated Fran's expression: "Hmm~~super......!!"]

【-_-||~~】

The other members of the Straw Hat Pirates were also very upset.

[Wow, this disease is really bad! It's spreading from person to person right after we met, and it's instantly spreading from one person to the next...]

After a while, Nami brought the Tong Tong Fruit from the room to the deck and handed it to Luffy: "Here! Here it is!"

Franky is currently reading the introduction to the Tun Tun Fruit in the Devil Fruit Encyclopedia.

"It can transform anything it swallows into a part of its body, and can also synthesize new things."

Franky was shocked after seeing this introduction: "Doesn't that mean... if I swallow the Treasure Tree Adam and then swallow steel, I can synthesize a new Adam alloy???"

【Why??】

[Hearing this, Luffy was stunned! ! ]

"Yes! Since theoretically anything can be fused, then of course Adam the Treasure Tree can be fused as well!"

【Luffy looks at Franky with some surprise~~~】

This guy is a shipbuilder, no wonder. His ideas about materials are even more advanced than mine.

Luffy originally intended to have Franky use the power of the Swallow Swallow Fruit to create an alloy that could make up for the lack of the Adam Treasure Tree~~

[But now Franky has proposed this idea of directly fusing the Treasure Tree Adam with steel. Wouldn't that mean we could create a new alloy that extracts the advantages of both the Treasure Tree Adam and steel?]

【and.....】

[Because the new alloy will be synthesized by Baoshu Adam and steel, its output will definitely exceed the amount of Baoshu Adam alone! ! ]

[This way, the newly synthesized materials will definitely be sufficient! ! ]

[At this time, Zoro nodded: "I think this idea is good!"]

"Yeah! The extra materials can also be used to strengthen the Merry, killing two birds with one stone!!" Usopp also agreed with this idea.

Luffy thought about it and said, "Okay then! Once we get the materials for the Treasure Tree Adam, we'll start by experimenting with one percent! We can try fusing a few different strong materials together, or even three or four together, and do some comparative experiments! We can see the effects and strength of each alloy~~"

"What a clever idea!!"

[Hearing this, Franky's eyes also lit up! !]

If there really is a material better than the Treasure Tree Adam, then for a shipbuilder like him... it would absolutely be the most beautiful thing in the world!!

[Thinking of this, he picked up the Tong Tong Fruit without hesitation! !]

[Ah~]

[He swallowed it in one gulp...! !]

Chapter 122: Three people raid Judicial Island at night! (Subscribe!)

Gol D. Roger: "Using the precious tree Adam to create an alloy... Oh my goodness, if this succeeds, how strong will the ship be!!"

Shi Ji: "Back then, your ship didn't even react to normal artillery shells! If they could come up with this treasure tree alloy, and have those two best shipbuilders in the world build it, wouldn't it be invincible?"

Vegapunk: "It's a pity that I don't have any materials from the Treasure Tree Adam. Otherwise, I would also like to try what it's like to use the alloy synthesized by the Treasure Tree Adam~~"

Walpo: "Using the Tong Tong Fruit to synthesize an alloy? That's a good idea. I'll try it later...!!"

Marshall D. Teach: "That's great! I don't have a proper pirate ship right now. If you can make an alloy better than steel, sell it to me. The price is negotiable!"

Walpo: "Get lost! Do you think I'm stupid?"

Although Valpo didn't know why Blackbeard Teach was targeting him, he knew that if he fell into Blackbeard Teach's hands, he would definitely end up in trouble! !

[During the following period, the Straw Hat Pirates temporarily settled in Water Seven City~~]

The purchase of the Adam tree went smoothly, ultimately spending a total of 5 million Baileys to purchase both Adam tree logs.

Franky took one percent of it and began his "alchemical journey"...

Luffy relies on everyone's brainstorming and "interrogates" the CP9 members in different ways when he has nothing to do~~

[For example, using a flaky toy to store everyone's farts, and then putting them on the captives' noses...]

[For example, Buggy splits and controls 100 feathers to tickle them~~]

[There's also a specially made spherical bamboo basket, into which the captives are thrown. Nami activates the ability of the Slippery Fruit, causing the captives inside to spin passively like a hamster spinning a ball~~]

[In short, I’ve used a lot of both decent and undecent items~~]

[However, CP9 is worthy of being trained as a secret agent since childhood. They didn't say a word about the training method of the Marine Six Styles~~]

[At Carrera's shipyard, new ships have begun construction~~]

[The material is a super alloy made from 11 materials including Adam, black iron ore, diamond ore, and rubber! ! ]

The new super alloy not only has properties comparable to diamond in strength, but also boasts excellent density, the toughness of rubber, and more...

"You mean, these CP9s will only obey their superiors' orders unwaveringly?"

Luffy looked at Iceborg. When they were chatting just now, Luffy suddenly heard an important meaning from his words.

Icebagger shrugged. "Yeah! Just like them, they started out as undercover agents beside me, starting out as handymen without any knowledge, and gradually became the best foremen. Just imagine how they've been doing these past five years?"

【"How did you get through?" Luffy asked suspiciously. 】

"They truly embodied themselves as shipwrights, while Kalifa and Bruno truly embodied themselves as mystics and bar owners..."

"Putting aside the fact that Khalifa is an undercover agent, she's truly accomplished the ultimate in mystical skills over the past five years by my side! And Bruno is known throughout the entire Water Seven City as the 'friendly boss.' Just imagine how terrifying these people are~~~"

“Once a mission is assigned, they will carry it out unwaveringly. Even if it’s an unknown area, they will do their best to complete it.”

[Acebargo said seriously.]

“I see…”

[Hearing this, Luffy rubbed his chin~~]

[He seemed to have suddenly found a way to pry open the mouths of those CP9 members...]

Luffy then inquired, "Who is their leader?"

“Sir…!!”

[As soon as he heard the name of CP9's leader, Icebagger's expression changed immediately! !]

[That is hatred from the depths of the soul!!]

[Then, he told Luffy about the events of more than 20 years ago~~~]

[How Tom, the world's number one shipbuilder, gained amnesty by building a sea train, how Spandam used Franky's warship to frame Franky and Tom in order to obtain the Pluto blueprints, how Spandam stepped on Tom's head, and how Franky broke Spandam's nose with the butt of his rifle... It was all told~~]

【After hearing this, Luffy was shocked!!】

[Unexpectedly, Tom was sentenced to death for building a boat for Roger...]

"This charge is ridiculous! When Tom built Roger's ship, Roger wasn't even the Pirate King yet?! And Tom was only convicted of this after Roger was executed?"

Luffy made a puzzled expression and laughed heartily: "This is simply the most ridiculous crime in the world!!"

Gol D. Roger: "Huh?? Tom was sentenced to death for treason because he built a ship for me? Damn, who the hell convicted him of this?!?"

When Roger saw this scene, he was furious! !

He never expected that because he asked Tom to build a boat, he would kill Tom...

Shi Ji: "This has to be the Warring States period..., it must be that bastard! Otherwise, how could he be punished and have so much life span deducted?"

Zhan Guo: "Get lost! That was an order from the World Government. It was probably CP5 who conveyed the accusation! What does it have to do with me...?!"
