Chapter 80: Chapter 80: I Have a Little Buddy; Even When I Go Out to Sea, I Still Miss Him
Luffy used the revival chance!!
He also has someone he wants to revive.
...
[Please state the target you wish to revive, and visualize their appearance in your mind!]
The viewing system's voice floated into Luffy's mind——
"I want to revive Sabo!"
As Luffy said this, he was already starting to lose control of his excitement~~~
[Ding! Please note, Sabo is alive and cannot use the revival chance!]
The system immediately sent back feedback~~~
Nani???
When he heard these words, Luffy was completely dumbfounded!!!
"Wha-wha-wha!!! Sabo..., it's that Sabo I'm thinking of in my mind!! He was choked to death by smoke very early on!!!"
Thinking the viewing system had made a mistake, Luffy quickly reminded it.
[Ding! Please note, Sabo is alive and cannot use the revival chance!]
[Please quickly choose a suitable revival target, otherwise, this revival chance will be forfeited!]
The viewing system's prompt sounded.
Alive!!!
Although Luffy's heart was pounding with shock, he knew the viewing system definitely wouldn't make a mistake!!!
The system had given out rewards and revived the dead; it wouldn't go so far as to deceive a 17-year-old boy...
So...
The only possibility was that he and Ace had made a mistake!!
Sabo actually isn't dead...???
Thinking carefully...
It seemed they indeed hadn't seen Sabo's body; they had only inferred that Sabo was dead based on the situation at the time~~~
Not dead...!!!
That's great!!! Sabo actually isn't dead!!!
Luffy was ecstatic!!!
[Ding! This revival chance has already been used!]
[If a target for use is not selected within 10 seconds, this revival chance will be completely forfeited!!!]
"Ah!! Wait!!!"
Luffy quickly forced himself out of his excitement...
Now is not the time to celebrate Sabo not being dead~~~
Since Sabo doesn't need this revival chance, then this revival chance can be used on someone else...
Who to use it on???
Hmm! Wait a minute!!!
Luffy suddenly thought of a certain possibility, and he quickly asked, "Can the revival chance be used on a Klabautermann???"
[This revival chance can be used on any living being!]
[Please state the target you wish to revive, and visualize their appearance in your mind!]
[6 seconds remaining before this revival chance is forfeited!]
The system prompted.
"I want to revive the Going Merry's Klabautermann!!"
Luffy quickly shouted in his mind, and visualized Little Merry's appearance in his head!!
Although Luffy hadn't seen Little Merry with his own eyes, he had seen her in the video!
And that indeed was the appearance of the Going Merry's Klabautermann, there should be no problem~~~
[Target revival successful!]
As the system's prompt sounded, a golden light suddenly condensed beside Luffy.
Amidst the astonished expressions of the surrounding pirates, a little girl wearing a yellow raincoat, yellow rain boots, and holding a small mallet appeared before everyone~~~
"Little Merry!!"
Seeing Little Merry revived before his eyes, Luffy's heart was about to jump out of his chest with excitement~~~
It really succeeded!!!
"Luffy..."
The little girl raised her head, revealing a delicate little face like a doll's~~~
With this one word, Luffy was completely stunned. "Ah!! You can talk??"
Little Merry smiled and nodded: "That's right! Because of the revival, I now have a completely independent personality, so of course, I can talk!"
The original Little Merry was the personification of the ship, the Going Merry. So the ship was her, and she was the ship~~~
Can a ship talk?
Of course not...
But the current Little Merry is a spirit entity with a completely independent personality, equivalent to a real Klabautermann~~~
"Luffy, thank you for bringing me back to life!!"
Little Merry stretched out her delicate little hand and took Luffy's hand.
However, Luffy looked at Little Merry, his eyes suddenly turning red, and he suddenly hugged her: "I'm sorry, I didn't take good care of you before!!"
"Ahaha~~~, not at all! I was very happy to sail with everyone.
Now that I have an independent personality, this is all thanks to you, Luffy~~~"
Her delicate little hand patted Luffy's head, Little Merry's smile was very sweet~~~
"Oden Oden!!! This is a Klabautermann? So cute!!!"
Cabaji and Luffy stood together. At this moment, seeing this little girl in a raincoat, Cabaji was instantly filled with affection!!!
He immediately reached out to pat Little Merry's cheek~~~
However...
His hand actually passed right through Little Merry's face...
"Huh!!"
Cabaji jumped in fright, then exclaimed, "What's going on??? Why can you touch me, but I can't?"
Luffy was stunned, only then noticing Cabaji's action just now!!
But looking at Little Merry whom he was hugging, wasn't this a solid touch...
Luffy looked bewildered: "I don't know either..."
"Could she be a Logia-type Devil Fruit user??? Did she just turn into her element?"
Mr. 3, not far away, spoke up to remind them~~~
However, Crocodile snorted coldly: "Idiot! The viewing system has suppressed everyone's abilities; none of us can actively use Devil Fruit powers. How could she be special?"
"Ah, right..."
Mr. 3 scratched his head, looking embarrassed~~~
Little Merry gently leaned against Luffy's ear and whispered, "Because I am a spirit entity, humans cannot touch me. Only those who have established a deep bond with me can touch me!!!"
So that's how it is!!!
Luffy's eyes lit up!!
That's great!!!
The reason he revived Little Merry to be by his side was because he felt he owed Little Merry too much, so he wanted to protect her properly!!!
Even if it meant participating in battles like the Summit War, as long as Luffy brought Little Merry with him and rubberized her at any time to protect her, then the probability of Little Merry getting hurt was still very small~~~
But now, finding out that Little Merry was actually a spirit entity, Luffy was even happier!
This means...
Apart from him and his Straw Hat crewmates, no one else can touch Little Merry.
This is practically an invincible mode!!!
This way, when the Summit War begins, Luffy can also fight without holding back!
Usopp: "Merry!!!"
When he saw the viewing system's prompt, Usopp was the most excited person of all!!
On this side with Luffy, no one had deeper feelings for the Going Merry than him~~~
Little Merry: "Brother Usopp..."
Usopp: "Nani!!!"
Suddenly seeing Little Merry's words appear in the chat room, Usopp's mind exploded~~~
I... I'm not hallucinating???
But then he suddenly realized...
Little Merry can also talk???
Roronoa Zoro: "Huh!! This is... our Klabautermann?"
Vinsmoke Sanji: "Oh my god! Am I dreaming? The Going Merry's Klabautermann not only came back to life but can also talk??"
Nami: "Little Merry!! Wow!!"
Tony Tony Chopper: "Waaah..., Little Merry!!!"
Franky: "The legendary Klabautermann is actually talking!!! Aww~ Superrr!!!"
Usopp: "Oden Oden!!! What on earth is going on? Luffy? Quickly tell us, is this really the Going Merry talking???"
Kaya... Usopp: "Where is the Going Merry parked now?"
Monkey D. Luffy: "Ahahaha!!! Little Merry has revived with an independent personality, she's right beside me now!"
"Ah!! ——"
As these words came out, all the Straw Hat crewmates were speechless with excitement!
They never imagined they would have a chance to see the Going Merry again in this lifetime!
And it was even in the state of an independent personality!
Although they hadn't seen her in person yet, once they gathered again, they would be able to see her!
Gol D. Roger: "Truly miraculous!! This viewing system, even a Klabautermann can be revived, it's truly beyond imagination!!"
Edward Newgate: "A Klabautermann that actually exists in human form? Truly enviable!"
Garp: "This kind of thing, even in the entire history of navigation, is absolutely unprecedented!!"
Portgas D. Ace: "Luffy..., did you forget him?"
Suddenly, Ace spoke up~~~
Gol D. Roger: "Him??"
Who is the fellow that Ace remembers???
Whitebeard saw this and was just about to tell Roger what Sabo Ace was talking about~~~
But suddenly he thought...
Wait!
How would Luffy know Sabo?
At that moment..., he also misunderstood what Ace was saying~~~
Monkey D. Luffy: "Ace, how could I forget? Sabo he... is still alive!"
Portgas D. Ace: "What??? Luffy..., are you sure you understand what you're saying right now...??"
Sabo: "If I'm not mistaken, did Straw Hat just mention my name???"
Portgas D. Ace: "Sabo!!!"
Trouble!
Ace was truly in trouble!!! Although he was on the execution platform, his whole body felt as if it had been struck by lightning, staring in disbelief!
Monkey D. Luffy: "Sabo!!! You really aren't dead!!!"
Seeing Sabo's name appear in the chat room, Luffy was so excited he almost jumped up~~~
This short while, for him, was truly double happiness descending upon his door!!!
First, Little Merry was revived, and now it was thoroughly confirmed that Sabo was still alive.
Luffy was overjoyed~~~
Sabo: "Why would I be dead...?? Also, Straw Hat Luffy, Whitebeard Pirates' Second Division Commander Ace, why are you two so familiar with me???"
Portgas D. Ace: "You are my brother!!!"
Luffy: "You are my older brother!!!"
Ace and Luffy shouted almost in unison~~~
Emporio Ivankov: "Nani??? Sabo-boy is actually Straw Hat-boy's older brother? What is this..."
Sabo: "Don't be ridiculous!!! I am the Chief of Staff of the Revolutionary Army, always active with the Revolutionary Army. How could I be brothers with you???"
Koala: "Not necessarily, Sabo. Aren't you suffering from amnesia? Maybe you really were brothers with them before?"
Donquixote Doflamingo: "Fuffuffuffu..., if you three are brothers, one is the Chief of Staff of the Revolutionary Army, one is currently a red-hot supernova in the pirate world, and one is of the Pirate King's bloodline..., this is truly too chaotic, isn't it!!!"
Monkey D. Dragon: "Speaking of which, when I was in East Blue back then, I found Sabo near Goa Kingdom from a scene depicted and brought him to the Revolutionary Army. He indeed has amnesia."
Portgas D. Ace: "Goa Kingdom!!! Then that's right!!! That's precisely the place where we three brothers grew up as children!!!"
Monkey D. Luffy: "It's you! Sabo, it really is you!"
Sabo: "Ah..., am I really your brother?"
Revolutionary Army Headquarters. Sabo listened to the conversation in the chat room, completely bewildered!!
It's unknown if Luffy and Ace's words had an effect, but the memories originally sealed deep within Sabo's mind suddenly loosened...
.
"Ah!! ——"
Sabo clutched his head in pain~
......
"Sabo!!!"
Koala's face was instantly filled with anxiety.
After a long while~
Sabo's eyes shot wide open!!
"I remember!!! I remember everything!!!!"
Sabo: "Ace!!! Luffy!!! I remember!!! My memories have just returned!!!!"
Portgas D. Ace: "Sabo!!!"
Monkey D. Luffy: "Sabo!"
Sengoku: "Garp!! Damn it!! Which one of them isn't related to you!!!"
Monkey D. Garp: "..."
Just as the chat room was bustling with excitement, the red-framed video also continued to play~
[Crocus was beaten up by Luffy and then harshly lectured by Luffy's words~]
[He was completely stunned!!!]
[He was already an old man, so he cared a lot about his face!!!!]
[But now..., he had to admit, Luffy wasn't wrong!!!!]
[The reason Laboon became like this, wasn't it precisely because of him, Crocus???]
[Moreover..., he indeed had no evidence to prove that the Rumbar Pirates had betrayed Laboon...]
[Although all of this was his reasonable speculation, no matter how reasonable the speculation, it was still just speculation.]
[Thinking about the severe consequences his casual words had brought upon Laboon, Crocus wished he could slap himself!!!]
["But... what now? Laboon is already like this... Is there any way to make amends?"]
[Crocus, ignoring the pain on his face, looked towards Luffy.]
[For some reason, he had a feeling that this Straw Hat youth before him would definitely be able to help Laboon!!]
["Wait until the effects of his tranquilizer wear off, then let's give it a try!!"]
[Seeing that Crocus had realized his mistake, Luffy stopped hitting him.]
[The next day, Laboon came to ram the mountain again...]
[Luffy bounced directly onto Laboon's head and said to him, "My name is Monkey D. Luffy, from a small village in East Blue!"]
[How could Laboon possibly pay him any mind? He continued to ram the mountain!!!]
[Luffy didn't mind either, but continued, "Me..., when I left my village, I made a promise with a little buddy. After I sail around the Grand Line once, I'll come back and meet him!"]
[Laboon can understand human language!]
[So when it heard "sail around the Grand Line once," its huge body trembled for a moment~~~]
[But then it thought of its own loneliness again, and with a painful roar, continued to ram the mountain~]
[Luffy continued speaking: "This little buddy of mine, he loves me very much, and I love him very much too! Although he can't go sailing with me, I believe that even when I'm not around, he will eat well, sleep well, protect himself well, and won't let himself get hurt in any way!"]
["Because he knows!! Me..., even when I'm out at sea, I'm always thinking about him!!"]
["Because he knows!! If he doesn't keep himself chubby and healthy, I will worry about him!!!"]
["This voyage of mine, I might encounter many situations. Maybe I can go back to see him in two years, maybe ten years, maybe fifty years, maybe even longer!! But we are crewmates who trust each other.
I firmly believe that no matter how long I'm out at sea, he will take good care of himself, and then wait for me to return!"]
[Listening to Luffy say these words, Laboon's ramming actions actually slowly stopped....]
One more.
