New Merry
The new Merry looked almost nothing like the old Merry. Ken actually thought that the new Merry would be something of the size of Thousand Sunny, but he was gravely mistaken. The only thing that had the resemblance of the Thousand Sunny was the face of Sunny in front of the huge dome at the top.
From what he could see, the ship had at least 10 floors, and it was so beautiful that he couldn't describe it in words. It seemed like a steampunk ship with intricate designs. The ship was pink and gold in color, with various circular designs adorning its body, and on top of the ship was the jolly Roger of the Straw Hat Pirates. In addition, there are two domes located at the front and back of the vessel—one blue and gold in color while the other was white—both decorated with ornate patterns.
The ship also had two masts bit it seemed like it was made only for the aesthetic purposes
"The back dome of the ship can be used for two purposes. It has three floors inside where everyone can have their good time, but in times of need, the dome will transform into a jet engine, which will help the ship travel at Mach 1 speed. Luffy, I will explain what Mach 1 is later. Thanks to Vivi, we were able to create an alloy that can handle the heat." Franky gave the first introduction.
Luffy had a question mark on his head, but Ken just said that it is very fast and nothing can catch them if they ever need to go somewhere fast or escape.
"This ship is something that even I didn't expect to make in my lifetime. Franky had some radical ideas that I didn't think were possible." Iceburg said. Paulie and others nodded their heads in agreement.
They invited the pirates inside the ship to look around, and the more the Pirates had a look inside, the more they were stunned. The ship had its own huge gym, its own aquarium and swimming pool, and a play court where the room could transform into any playground they desired with the touch of a button.
The ship had a navigation room that was big and adorned with modern navigation equipment instead of just a wheel. Since the ship could go under water and fly, it definitely needed modern equipment.
"Franky, for how long can the ship be in the air?" Ken wanted to know if there was some kind of timeout.
"Oh, it can stay in forever. Thanks to the Motherbox, we have an almost infinite source of energy." Franky replied. This made everyone way too happy. Finally, they could be saved from any tricky situation at sea and just travel by air. Many had seen airplanes before in the character world, and now they had a chance to have their own luxury airplane.
"The ship can also go underwater, but not to great depths, as that needs heavy alloy. It makes the ship slow over water and can't fly. But it can still go 400 meters deep under the water." Franky said.
'So it would still need the coating to get to Fishman Island. Hmm.. Well, meeting Rayleigh is still on the agenda.' Ken thought about it but didn't say it out loud. Others were super excited looking around the ship, and this thing was so big that it almost took an hour to have a complete tour of the ship. This ship was so big that it even had its own garden inside, where they could plant vegetables, fruits, and medicinal plants.
Everybody had their own room.
Chopper got his room and also a hospital room that had all modern equipment. Sanji had his kitchen, which was a huge one, and Franky had been very considerate to even make him a housemaid robot, which would be responsible for cleaning the kitchen. Since the ship was so big, it needed maintenance, so Franky made three robots. One for the kitchen and two for cleaning the whole ship.
Ken, seeing this, felt like Dr. Vegapunk would love to talk with Franky in length in the future. Though the robots weren't that advanced and were only a rough skeleton type robot, unlike the Pacifistas or the Seraphims, this was enough advanced.
Of course, Luffy, Chopper, and Ussop were again over the top and couldn't handle their excitement.
Luffy also had the captain's quarters, unlike last time, and it was fitting for the Captain. Of course, Luffy never cared about it, but he was still happy as he appreciated the gesture. Ken, too, loved the new home. He had been living in savage times if it went by his standard, but now that he had his own room with his own toilet and bathroom, he felt like he was back at his own place before he came to this world.
He almost had tears in his eyes when he sat on the soft mattress. But he was also happy that Merry didn't need to let go, and there were no cries due to it. He had been trying to get in contact with the spirit of the ship but was still failing. He was wondering if the spirit would have come into being if the ship was in its dying phase, and since the ship had been maintained well, it never bothered to appear.
While he was having these thoughts, the Straw Hats had finished their tour, and now it was their time to leave. The Franky family and the Galley La workers came to say their goodbyes. There was no fight between Ussop and Luffy, so there was no commotion about the hierarchy.
It seemed like the crew knew that the Captain was still Luffy, and his orders were never questioned. There were a lot of tears as Franky went aboard the ship. Even Iceburg shed a few tears while he held a huge piece of paper in his hand.
The paper had plans for rebuilding his city. Iceburg had been thinking of making the city mobile so it could sail in the sea. The Aqua Laguna had been devastating their island every year, and they needed to counter that.
