They deeply understand that such moments are as precious and rare as the twinkling stars in the night sky.

Although the road ahead may be shrouded in endless challenges and dangers, they firmly believe in their hearts that as long as they work together with unity, nothing can stop them from moving forward.

At this time, Nami walked to the bow alone, quietly feeling the gentle caress of the sea breeze. She squinted her eyes slightly, looking at the boundless sea in the distance, and couldn't help but feel a surge of anticipation for the future in her heart: "I wonder what kind of surprises the next adventure will bring us?"

Suddenly, Luffy leaped up from the crowd like a meteor full of energy.

He raised his hands high and shouted excitedly: "No matter what awaits us ahead, we will not be afraid!" His words were like a passionate war drum, instantly igniting everyone's passion.

……

At dawn the next day, the sun just appeared above the sea level, sprinkling rays of golden light on the vast sea, creating patches of dazzling golden waves.

Nami stood at the bow, the sea breeze gently blowing her silky hair. She stared at the record indicator in her hand with full concentration, her eyebrows slightly frowned. "Lingtian, according to the indicator, the next island should be the Long Chain Island."

Nami raised her voice and shouted, but her voice was a little fragmented by the sea breeze.

At this moment, Ling Tian walked out of the cabin with steady steps, holding an old sea chart tightly in his hand, with a resolute and courageous look. "Nami. Our next destination is the Seven Cities of Water."

Nami turned around upon hearing the voice, staring at Ling Tian with suspicion, and asked in confusion: "Why is that? Changlian Island is clearly a scheduled route!"

Ling Tian walked forward, pointed at the sea chart and said seriously: "Look at this sea chart. The Merry is now in tatters. If we continue like this, I'm worried that it may not be able to support our future adventures. As far as I know, the Seven Waters have the best shipbuilders. Maybe we can repair the Merry there."

Nami looked in the direction of Ling Tian's finger, her gaze resting on the shabby deck and somewhat damaged mast of the Merry, a trace of heartache revealed in her eyes.

She knew very well what this ship meant to the entire Straw Hat Pirates. It was not only their means of transportation, but also their partner along the way.

After some thought, they decided to ask the other members of the Straw Hat Pirates for their opinions. On the other side of the boat, Sanji was concentrating on preparing breakfast with a cigarette in his mouth. Nami and Ling Tian walked towards him together.

"Sanji, we are discussing the next itinerary. The current situation of the Merry is not optimistic. Lingtian proposed to go to the Seven Water Cities to repair the ship first instead of going directly to the Long Chain Island. What do you think about this?" Nami asked directly.

Sanji stopped what he was doing, exhaled a puff of smoke, and after thinking for a moment, he replied: "Well... Actually, I have also noticed the situation of the Merry. It really needs to be repaired. And the distance from Water Seven to Long Chain Island is not too far. If we repair the ship there, our subsequent voyage will be smoother. However, repairing the ship may take some time, so we have to make corresponding plans."

Nami nodded, indicating that she agreed with Sanji's point of view. Then, she turned to look at Ling Tian and said, "Then, let's proceed according to this plan. After everyone wakes up, we can discuss the specific details together."

Ling Tian smiled and responded, "No problem! I believe everyone will understand our decision. After all, the safety and comfort of the Meili are of paramount importance to us."

After saying that, he patted Nami on the shoulder, and the two returned to the bow together and continued to observe the surrounding sea conditions.

At this moment, the sun gradually rises from the sea level, like a bright pearl, emitting dazzling light. The golden sunlight sprinkles on the sea, forming patches of glittering light, like countless diamonds inlaid in it, sparkling and dazzling.

The Merry swayed gently in the breeze, as if telling everyone about its desire and anticipation for a new journey.

Sanji stood quietly at the bow, took a deep puff of cigarette, and then slowly exhaled a smoke ring.

He silently gazed at the dilapidated deck of the Merry, with a hint of emotion in his eyes.

Afterwards, Ling Tian and Nami walked towards the cabin together, looking for Usopp who was busy tinkering with his strange inventions.

When Ling Tian asked Usopp about his opinion on going to the Seven Water Cities to repair the Merry, Usopp's eyes immediately lit up, and he jumped up excitedly like a child, shouting, "Of course we have to go! The Merry is not only our means of transportation, but also our close partner! No matter what, we must repair it and let it shine again!"

Then, they found Zoro leaning against the side of the ship, wiping his three swords. He held a long sword with a broad blade in his left hand, and gently wiped the blade with a rag in his right hand;

Next to him, there were two other shorter swords, also flashing with cold light. At this moment, Sauron looked focused, as if he was treating his most precious treasure.

"Zoro, what do you think about changing the itinerary and going to the Water Seven Cities to repair the ship first?" Nami walked to Zoro and asked.

Hearing the voice, Zoro stopped what he was doing, slowly raised his head, and his gaze first fell on the Merry in front of him. A barely perceptible hint of recollection flashed in his eyes.

Then, he turned to look at Nami and said in a deep voice: "This ship witnessed our beginning. It has taken us through countless storms. I also hope that it can always accompany us. So, let's go to the Seven Capitals of Water first."

Zoro's words were recognized by everyone, so with everyone's unanimous opinion, the Straw Hat Pirates decided to go to the Seven Cities of Water.

Nami returned to the bow and replanned the route. She stared at the nautical chart in her hand and muttered to herself, "The Seven Water Cities, I hope they can give the Merry a new look and make it our reliable partner again."

Ling Tian, ​​who was standing at the side, folded his hands in front of his chest, looking firmly at the vast ocean ahead, thinking silently in his heart: "I hope that the Merry can be repaired by going to Water 7 in advance!"

In the following voyage, the Straw Hat Pirates sailed towards the Seven Water Cities with all their expectations for Merry and their vision for the future.

Sanji quickly sped up the pace of preparing breakfast, his voice echoing throughout the ship: "Friends, come and enjoy a hearty breakfast, then we will head towards the Seven Cities of Water!"
