==============================
Manga events:
A thick blanket of smoke separated the warships stuck in the whirlpools and the Going Merry which had already drifted away from the Enies Lobby with the help of the turbulent sea waves.
"We're still gonna go after them!!!"
"We can't just let it end like this!!!"
"... No need."
Suddenly, a quiet voice was heard which made the marines unconsciously shiver from cold.
"... It's obvious just by looking at this fleet and the island... That this is our complete defeat.
The person who said these words, was the Navy Admiral who arrive late, Admiral Aokiji.
...
..
Back to Going Merry:
"Hmph... Is this good enough?!"
Franky carried Luffy on his back and placed him on Merry's head at Luffy's request.
"Yup...! This is my seat!!"
Luffy hugged Merry's head happily before speaking:
"We managed to get away thanks to you."
"Thank you, Merry!!"
Franky is still shocked by everything the Straw Hats have done so far:
" But then, what you guys did was really outrageous... First of all, how can you shoot the flag of the world government?"
The person who answered is Luffy:
"We only took back our Nakama who was taken away!!"
Robin: "..."
"This fight."
"Is our victory!!!!"
"All Right!!!"
Crew members shouted and jumped celebrating their victory.
==============================
"What lucky brats they are, Gurararara!!"
Even Whitebeard was completely dumbfounded by how the Straw Hats had managed to escape from Buster Call's fleet using a dying ship.
"They're lucky, that's for sure, but if Sanji hadn't set the Gate of Justice closed after he finished his battle against Jabra, they wouldn't have survived being pursued by the navy."
Marco was a fan of Sanji, he likes his way of doing things, after all, what he did was decisive in coming out as a complete victory against the World Government.
"Hahahaha! Even Admiral Aokiji admitted it."
"After this incident, their fame will resonate all over the world, I'm kinda excited to see the reaction of the world inside the manga and how much the bounties will be on their heads."
"Me too, Zeha"
"You shut up."
Teach was completely silent as Whitebeard frowned at him and ordered him to shut up.
Teach has yet to find a way to get rid of Whitebeard's suspicions or escape from this ship.
Every extra day he spends here, things get worse for him.
"Guys... The ship... has broken."
"Oh... Vista?! Why are you crying in such an emotional way?!"
Everyone turned to Vista who was crying like the way Franky cried in an unusual sight.
Vista could not express his turbulent feelings at this moment.
He could only show his comrades the manga page... The scene where Luffy burned the ship.
...
Syrup town;
This place was once just a village turned into a town because of the art store.
Lots of people come here who wanted a house near the art store, soon more houses and hotels were built and a big town appeared in 3 years.
Back in the manga, it was still the same village and nothing had changed.
This was the village from which the Going Merry first sailed.
At this moment, inside and outside the art store a stifling silence fell over the place.
Everyone was reading the manga pages with teary eyes.
Whether they are men or women.
Old or young.
Everyone who had read today's volume all the way to this concluding scene in the arc.
The end was predictable, but how it happened was not predictable at all.
Who in this world would expect a ship to talk?!
A ship! For heaven's sake?! A piece of wood... How can it talk and apologize and die happy?!
"Is this real?!"
"Huh?! I'm crying?! I didn't even cry when Robin's past came out!"
"Why am I crying now?!"
"This... Oh my..."
"Rest in peace, best ship in the world."
=============================
Manga events:
The moment the Galley-La Company's ship reached the Straw Hats location, Merry's front was completely shattered.
Luffy shouted to Iceburg for help:
"Ossaaan!! We've got trouble!!! Merry's in danger!!! Please do something!!!"
"Guys...!! This is perfect timing!! You're all shipwrights, right!!?"
"Please!!! Please do something!!!"
"She's a Nakama that has traveled with us all this time!!! And just now, too...!!"
"She saved us just now!!"
Iceburg: "..."
After hearing all that, Iceburg sighed and spoke softly:
"Then let her sleep already...!!"
"We've done all we possibly can."
Iceburg had brought back memories of that miraculous moment in his life.
When she talked to him... A ship.
{(I want to sail out... Just once more.)}
Upon hearing this, Iceburg immediately began fixing the ship with everything he had even when it was raining hard, and even when he was injured and supposed to take a rest.
"HAA... What am I doing...? Fixing up a hopeless ship...!!!?"
When he finished and want to leave, he heard that warm voice again.
{(Thank you.)}
She was thanking him.
...
After telling them the story, Iceburg spoke with great emotion:
"I'm... Seeing a miracle right now. A miracle. From a ship that has reached its limit a long time ago."
" I've been a shipwright for many, many years,... yet I've never seen such an amazing Pirate Ship.
Straw Hats: "..."
Iceburg continued:
"It lived a very admirable life."
Luffy closed his eyes and finally understood:
"I understand."
...
..
==============================
Water Seven;
"..."
"This is the best scene I've ever read."
"Right I've never seen such an epic thing before."
"A ship loved its owners to the point that it became a living spirit...!! What a miraculous!"
"I I am tired of wiping my tears. I will let them flow freely for the last time today before I go to sleep early."
"Ah What a world this is we live in?!"
"Even a ship could become a living being."
"I am also a shipwright... From now on, I will build ships to the best of my ability so that they may live longer years than humans if a ship's spirit happens to form in one of them at some point in its life. "
The people most affected by the scene of Merry and the crew's memories with her are the shipwrights themselves, less than the pirates who care about their ships, too.
...
==============================
"Then, are you ready, guys"
The rest of the crew stood on a small boat parallel to Merry to live the ship's last moments with it.
While the captain of the crew Luffy had to burn the ship himself and send it to its final resting place.
"Merry."
"The bottom of the sea is dark and lonely. We'll see you off here!!"
Luffy had sets the ship on fire before continuing to talk:
"Maybe it's for the best that Usopp... Isn't around... There's no way he can... Endure this."
On the side Zoro asked Usopp who was wearing a Sogeking mask:
"And what do you say to that?"
Usopp replied convinced:
"He'll be all right... A time of separation has come. When men part ways... Tears should not be involved in it."
"He's fully prepared for this moment."
The light of flame reflected on Luffy's face but he didn't feel any warmth from it... He was very sad... Saddened by the parting of a Nakama like Merry.
"Thank you for carrying us all this time... Merry."
Suddenly, light white clouds surrounded the sky and began snowing Unusual snow.
This snow was the farewell snow that brings back memories to whoever touched it.
For the first time, Nami couldn't predict the weather and that it would be snowing at all.
Nami grabbed a small snowball before commenting:
"It's snowing."
((Caravel!! Uwooo!))
((The making of the pirate ship "Going Merry" is now completed!!))
Nami's eyes watered as she recalled these memories.
Zoro, Sanji, Usopp, Robin, Chopper, and Luffy... All had remembered the most precious memories they had with Going Merry up until now.
Suddenly:
{(I'm sorry.)}
Luffy was confused when he heard this:
"Eh?"
This time Merry spoke so clearly, that everyone in the place heard her:
{(I wanted to carry you just a little bit further...)}
{(... I'm sorry. I wanted to go on more adventures with you... But I...)}
"...!!!? A voice..."
Even the carpenters from Galley-La could hear it.
Before Merry could finish her apology, Luffy screamed while he crying hard:
"We're the ones who have to apologize, Merry!!!"
"I'm not good at navigating, and I crashed you onto an iceberg!! I even ripped the sail sometimes!! Zoro and Sanji are idiots, so they broke many things, too!!"
"Usopp always tried to fix you every time, but he's not good at it, either!!!"
"We're so sorry..."
{(But I was happy.)}
{(Thank you for taking good care of me until now.)}
{(I was really happy.)}
"MERRY~~~!!!"
==============================
People kept leaving the art stores one by one.
Most of them got red eyes and weary expressions, as this arc and the news of Global War and watching the destruction of Enies Lobby drained all the mental strength of the ordinary people in the sea world.
On Fish-Man Island, Tom and his two disciples left, and Kokoro stayed with Suzan.
"From now on, I will take care of any warship I make, perhaps one of them will become alive in the future!" Catty Flam said.
"Franky idiot... A ship needs a loving crew to produce a Klabautermann, not a single one loving individual."
"Oh?!"
"Klabautermann... This is truly a miracle among the ships."
"True pirates are unique if their good care can create a ship's spirit."
"I've been building ships for dozens of years, and I've never encountered such a phenomenon before, although I've heard of it.
