Voyage: Prop Master on the Straw Hat

“it is as expected

Frankie also wiped the coke from the corner of his mouth, “To be honest, there have been many such situations over the years.”

“There are pirates who cherish their ships very much and cannot accept that their ships will be eliminated like this, so they would rather die than change ships.”

“But such people often sink into the sea in subsequent news, or simply disappear from the news, and just disappear on the sea quietly.” He also lamented there, “So this piece of news The sea is so cruel ~ ugh!”

“So you can meet our needs?!”

Usopp asked expectantly.

“To take a ship that has already been built and completely transform it on the original basis…”

Franky refused at first, “Don’t be ridiculous, this kind of technology is comparable to a major transformation of the human body, and only my master can do it…

At this point, he suddenly paused.

In other words, he himself is now a real reformer.

He can even transform his own flesh and blood into a powerful cyborg state.

And what he returned at that time was only some materials from the abandoned ship, which were his masterpieces eight years ago when he was twenty-six years old.

“Is there really no other way?!”

Usopp and Nami looked a little sad again.

Luffy was even more silent, just staring at him.

“but……”

Frankie gave another ambiguous statement, “It’s not impossible.”

“If I can get the technology from my master, coupled with my experience in transformation, there should be no problem.”

After transforming himself, he has almost accumulated the accumulation of these eight years until now.

This kind of transformation technology is not only his own, Franky is also gradually applying it to shipbuilding.

However, he has been in the exploratory stage, and the technology is not yet mature.

“Is that so?!”

Luffy’s eyes suddenly lit up as their hopes were rekindled.

“Then Franky, your master…”

Before Luffy finished speaking, Franky immediately interrupted:

“My master passed away many years ago…”

His tone was quite low.

It was precisely because the thirty-five battleships [Battle of Frankie] he knew were framed by the then CP chief Spandamley that Tom was charged with attacking the judicial ship and was escorted to Judiciary Island.

And has never come out since.

In other words, if his master was captured and ended up like that, he, as an apprentice, has an absolutely unshirkable responsibility.

This is also the reason why Frankie has been engaged in the dismantling business instead of the shipbuilding business for so many years.

Because the [Franky Battle] he created hurt his mentor, it left an indelible shadow in his heart.

Therefore, his interest in building battleships also came to an end for a time. His transformation was also his last work in the past eight years.

“Ah, I’m sorry…”

Luffy also knew that he said something he shouldn’t have said, so he apologized quickly.

Then…he looked at Franky again with a very hesitant expression.

“Okay, don’t look at me like that

Franky said angrily, “Since I agreed to help you repair the ship, I will definitely do my best.”

“So I will tell you how to do it. Whether you are willing to do it or not is up to you.”

After saying that, he stretched out two thick fingers towards Luffy and the others.

“You have to know that it is a huge project to renovate a ship from the inside out on the original basis. No matter how skilled the craftsman is to carry out the work, there are two necessary factors. .”

He pressed a finger first, “The first point is what I mentioned before, the technology mastered by my master, which is the core requirement of everything.”

“And the second point

Franky looked at everyone, “I wonder if you have heard of the legend of the Ship Elf?”

“Ship Elf? Of course it is~!!”

Usopp nodded hurriedly, “Our Merry, Merry is already our partner!!”

・・Please give me flowers……

“Have you all seen the Ship Spirit yet?!”

Franky’s face looked a little surprised, but also a little understanding:

“It seems that you really cherish your ship. No wonder you want to keep it at all costs.”

“This saves me a lot of explanation time.”

Franky couldn’t help but cough slightly, “Because this is not a small change, we must ensure that the Ship Elf is born.” “Otherwise, even if “”;.??’,,:!”,: “..;:,..!,”,,'”:’,”!,:.???’!.!;,?”!;!The modified ship can be successful and appears to be intact in appearance It’s not damaged, but it’s also ‘dead’ on the inside.”

Franky said solemnly, “It’s like the body has been separated from the soul. That kind of ship is no different from the walking dead.”

“Fortunately, Melita’s resuscitation was born, so we don’t have to worry about this anymore.”

Usopp looked relieved and breathed a sigh of relief.

“Then the only thing we lack is the first condition?!”

Luffy and Nami also looked excited.

“I haven’t finished speaking yet.

Frankie sat down in the sand.

“Even if you have the Ship Elf on your ship, you still don’t have the most necessary technology.

…

He put his hands on his chin, his eyes flashed and gradually became darker.

“Since it is a technology left behind by your master, you must have it here, right?”

Link noticed Franky’s abnormality and couldn’t help but said softly, “Or is there some other omission?”

“ah~”

Franky raised his head, his eyes becoming serious in a way that made people look at him unconsciously.

“My master has only used this technique once in his life. It is precisely because of this that he has been targeted by the world government.

“Being targeted because of your shipbuilding skills? Are you talking about…”

Link’s heart skipped a beat, and he already had some guesses in his mind.

“What about the man who built the ship Oral Jackson for the Roger Pirates, and was once the world’s best shipwright, Mr. Tom?”

“One Piece?!”

Upon hearing this name and the Legendary Pirates, Luffy and Nami Usopp all looked at Link and Franky in shock.

“you know?”

Franky looked at Link, then lowered his head.

“Yes, my master, Mr. Tom, relied on this skill to become the world’s number one shipwright.”

“He was not promoted to the world’s number one seat just because he built One Piece’s car, but because he has such skills, he fully deserves it!

Franky said seriously.

Sure enough~

Hearing what Franky said, Link also felt a little enlightenment in his heart.

Indeed, Roger, the pirate king at that time, came out of Rogge Town, took Rayleigh and a group of other friends, and rode the wind and waves all the way to the Seven Islands of this great route.

They must have arrived here on a good ship, and then they also had to rest and replace the ship.

Later, here, Mr. Tom built for them the world’s number one ship at that time, Oral Jackson.

According to the anime materials, the Roger Pirates only have one ship, which was built by Mr. Tom’s world-class treasure tree [Adam].

There is obviously a problem with this.

Roger and the others came all the way from the East China Sea to the seventh capital on this great shipping route. It was impossible that there were no ships carrying them.

And Roger and the others are not the kind of guys who abandon the ship and don’t care.

So~

Roger must have faced the same situation as the Straw Hat Pirates now! ! corpse.

Target: Justice Island! ! We will never leave any of our companions behind! !

They were reluctant to part with the original ship that had brought them to the Seven Capitals, but the original ship could not carry them to continue their journey.

Therefore, Mr. Tom took action.

Using Baoshu Adam as a material and relying on his extremely superb technology, he made a major overhaul of the original ships of the Roger Pirates.

Directly based on it, a deep transformation was carried out, and this is how the brand new OroJackson came into being! !

It is precisely because of this technology that Mr. Tom becomes the well-deserved number one craftsman in the world! !

“After meeting the conditions of the Ship Elf, what you lack now is my master’s skill.”

Franky said in a deep voice to everyone, “Actually, there is still a third condition, which is to use the world’s two top treasure trees [Adam] and [Eve] as materials. Only in this way can it be used successfully.”

“But with the money in your hands, it is more than enough to buy enough [Adam].”

“so……”

“So, where is your master’s technology?!”

After learning that there was no need to worry about the material problem and that it could be solved by spending money, Luffy asked eagerly.

Now for him, everything is ready, except for this last core technology! !

“Justice Island!!”

“Seven-one-zero” Franky gave this answer without hesitation.

“My master was responsible for building ships for the Pirate King Roger, so after the Pirate King was executed, he was also implicated…”

Franky began to selectively explain this old incident to everyone.

Back then, after the Pirate King Roger was executed, Mr. Tom was taken into the judicial ship for trial for building a ship for the Pirate King Gol D. Roger.

However, at that time, he explained to the presiding judge the design and concept of the sea train that was being studied, so that the judge changed the trial and temporarily gave him time to produce it.

Later, it took him fourteen years to finally successfully build a sea train. This achievement offset his sin of building a ship for the Pirate King and regained his freedom.

But at that time, CP’s Spangdine received a tip and learned that Mr. Tom had Pluto’s design on his body.

Then he begged Mr. Tom many times, but after being rejected to no avail, he became angry and resentful and planned to frame him.

Mr. Tom also felt the pressing pressure from the world government, so he passed the Pluto design to Bingshan, his disciple at the time.

And in order that his craftsmanship would not be lost, he specially compiled a technical manual on how to carry out major modifications to ships.

Unfortunately, this manual had just been written, and before it could be sent to Bingshan and Franky, it was framed and injured by Spangdyne, and was arrested and sent to Judiciary Island, where he was sentenced to death–

“The technical manual of my master, Mr. Tom, was also used as evidence of crime at that time, and was collected and taken away by agents of the World Government, and stored in the archives of Judiciary Island.”

Franky whispered here, and his tone gradually returned to normal.

Then he shrugged: “You have all heard that my master’s core technology is currently in Judiciary Island.”

“Those are the three major agencies under the World Government, along with the Navy Headquarters and the Impel Down Prison.

“So, it’s simply impossible for you to get this technology…”

“Yoshi, let’s go to Justice Island next!!!”
