Sailing Starts from Becoming Luffy

Luffy didn't know what to do for a while.

Without physical strength, does it mean that Thunder Fruit's abilities can be used casually?

If this is the case, will it be too buggy, does this kind of thing really exist in this world?

An illusory body that cannot be hurt except Conqueror's Haki, and will not be unable to use its abilities due to lack of physical strength.

Is this reasonable?

Luffy fell into deep contemplation, there was no limit at all, Luffy felt that Merry could even fight the whole world by himself.

If this is the case, consumption can consume people to death.

"No consumption? Is such a thing really possible?"

Everyone understood what Merry's words meant.

How scary would it be to have unlimited access to Thunder Fruit's abilities?

Unless you encounter a situation like Luffy who is completely immune to lightning attacks, no matter how weak the power is, it can grind the enemy to death.

And once you dodge, no matter how much physical strength there is, there will be a day when it will be exhausted.

Could it be that the ship spirit really has such incredible characteristics?

"If that's the case, isn't Merry invincible?"

Usopp was excited again, this is the Merry, with such a powerful ship spirit, there is no need to be afraid of encountering other pirates in the future.

"It's not like this, everyone, although I really don't have the physical strength you mentioned, I still need to rest.

Rest? Does Merry have a mental limit?

However, this is also normal. Although the illusory body has no physical limitations, it will suffer from mental fatigue just like humans.

Thinking about it, this is why Merry can't awaken Armament Haki, but he can awaken Observation Haki.

"Rest, do you mean sleep like us?"

Usopp was stunned for a moment, then asked very puzzled.

The ship spirit still needs to rest? How to rest, sleep? However, I haven't seen Merry sleep with everyone these days!

"Well...it's different from your sleep, but it's the same meaning.""

"How long do I appear in this form every time, and how long do I need to rest after that, this rest is attached to the main body. 39

"At this time, although I can hear you and communicate with you, I cannot use Observation Haki.

"Although I haven't tried whether I can use Devil Fruit's power, I guess it shouldn't work."

Merry spoke out about his limitations.

This is the first time I've heard that the ship spirit has such a limit!

Luffy rubbed his chin, no wonder Merry didn't usually appear in public.

"Then how long can you appear each time you appear?"

It's impossible to appear all the time, right? If that's the case, Merry doesn't need to be attached to the main body Merry all the time.

"It can stay like this for three days at most.

Merry thought about it, although he had never tried to appear in front of everyone for 3 days in a row, Merry was sure that this was his limit.

"I have a feeling, though, that if there were more people on board who could get along with me like you guys, Luffy, the longer I'd be around."

This……

"Well, Merry, do you still have this kind of restriction? What's going on here?"

"Hey, Franky, do you know why?"

As the most knowledgeable Franky in this field, what should he know?

"I don't know, but I think it has something to do with the reason why the ship spirit appears!

Why do ship spirits appear?

The ship spirit will appear, according to Franky's previous statement, because the relationship between the ship and the crew has reached a certain level, and the ship gave birth to the ship spirit in order to repay.

Then, it seems that it is not unreasonable that the ship spirit will exist for a longer time as the number of people close to it increases.

Everyone thought thoughtfully.

And Luffy thought of another point, the more people who spend with Merry, the longer Merry exists.

Then if it reaches a certain level, will Merry become completely human?

As a traverser, Luffy's speculation in this regard is more bold, but why does it feel so mysterious?

Moreover, even if Merry can truly become a human being, how many crew members would it take to be so close to Merry?

Even if Luffy doesn't have the idea of ​​recruiting only 10 people, it's impossible to recruit people without limit.

And, if you hire someone casually, how many would be so close to Merry?

What's more, Merry has now become Merry's chariot No. 1, and it is even more difficult for those who board the ship to cultivate this kind of intimacy with Merry.

Or is it possible to achieve this level of closeness with the ship's spirit, Meli?

But these are still too far away, as to whether Merry can be turned into a human being, it is still just a guess by Luffy's unreasonable association.

"However, this is also very powerful. With the power of Thunder Fruit, how many people can hold on to Merry's hands for 3 days?"

This is true. With the power of Thunder Fruit, ordinary pirates cannot withstand a thunder column attack.

Those who can resist the power of Thunder Fruit will basically be solved by Luffy and Zoro.

Moreover, although Merry, who is attached to the main body, cannot use the Observation Haki, Merry can still feel if someone gets on Luffy's ship.

Watching the boat is still no problem for Merry.

~ But I didn't expect you guys to eat Devil Fruit for the ship spirits, which is really surprising.

Ships were built for the purpose of sailing, but it's incredible that someone actually eats Devil Fruit for the ship's spirits.

However, this also proved that they did have a good relationship with this ship. Even if they changed ships, they still did not forget this ship.

It is no wonder that such an ordinary boat can actually give birth to the legendary existence of the ship spirit.

The key is that this ship spirit can actually eat Devil Fruit, and is willing to eat Devil Fruit.

You must know that after eating Devil Fruit, anything has been missed from swimming.

(Wang Liaozhao) Even if it is a ship, it will also be cursed by Devil Fruit.

And for a ship, if it can't sail, what's the point of its existence?

But what about the ship spirit in front of him? After knowing that he couldn't continue sailing for too long, he took the initiative to show up.

This, in Franky's view, was the presence of the ship's spirit to tell the crew to change the ship in time.

After knowing that he could continue to adventure with these crew members, he resolutely ate the Devil Fruit that would make him unable to go to sea.

Not only the crew is close to the ship, but the spirit of the ship is also close to the crew.

Such a team, isn't it the person that he has been looking for to hand over the ship he built to them?

Then, can you join them, and will the ship that you are about to build also give birth to such a ship spirit?

At this moment, Franky suddenly had the urge to go out to sea with Luffy and the others.
