One Piece: Hashirama Template

"Sorry to keep you waiting."

Just as Link was about to get flirty with Hancock and tease the pure-hearted Empress, Robin's voice suddenly reached his ears.

Looking at the smiling Robin, Link asked, feigning ignorance, "So? Did you find out about the history of the Void Century?"

"Yes, and no."

Robin shook her head. "The content of this Poneglyph is actually a letter of apology to the Mermaid Princess. The protagonist is the Joy Boy you mentioned, Link."

"Joy Boy again? It seems that this great figure from centuries ago left a considerable shadow on the World Government, so much so that his name was erased from history."

After sighing, Link brought Robin some good news. "My wood clone found a sky island, and there's a Poneglyph there too. After we're done with our business here, I'll take you to see it."

"Okay."

Robin smiled and nodded, her gaze towards Link filled with gentleness.

He was so reliable!

As one of the earliest crew members to follow Link, Robin was also one of the people who understood him best.

If you were to ask who in the crew had the biggest barrier towards Link at the beginning, it definitely wouldn't be the extremely clever Kalina, but a more advanced version of Kalina: Robin.

Twenty years of a fugitive life had made Robin develop a suspicious nature.

When Link's conversation with Cobra was overheard, Robin was shaken, but she was still wary and guarded against Link.

After all, the perception of the strong was something she couldn't understand too clearly.

Why was it that Link's words were so coincidentally overheard?

Looking at it from a negative perspective, Link might have done it on purpose!

After spending some time together and going through the incident where Bruno was captured, Robin's closed heart opened a little, and she developed a considerable amount of affection for Link.

But the barrier was still there, just a little.

It was only during the months they spent together in the Florian Triangle, with Link's strict demands on her, that Robin's defenses were completely broken down.

Having witnessed firsthand how Link captured Kalina's heart and gained the admiration of Perona and the other girls, and how he was always planning for her Haki training and a top-tier Devil Fruit, Robin's affection for Link slowly rose to an incredibly high level.

Sincerity is a kind of ultimate move.

Link's actions and efforts along the way were a sincerity that couldn't be faked.

He was the companion Saul had spoken of, the one who would protect her, the one Robin had longed for since she was a child!

So, without realizing it, Robin's pursuit of history was no longer as fervent.

Compared to history, she preferred this big family and wanted to sail together with Link, Nami, and the others.

The current Robin no longer lived for her mother's wish.

She was living out a life named Nico Robin.

Link didn't know all this, otherwise he would have been very happy and filled with a sense of accomplishment.

Finally, another fruit has ripened!

All that was missing was the right atmosphere to pick it!

Time flew by, and five days passed.

Although he had recruited Shirahoshi, Link didn't immediately take her away from Fish-Man Island. He gave her a few days to spend with Neptune and her three brothers.

At the same time, Link's group also stayed as guests in the Ryugu Kingdom.

During the day, they went shopping with Kalina and the other girls, buying some local specialties unique to Fish-Man Island.

When Kalina and the girls discovered that the jewelry on Fish-Man Island was very cheap, they went on a crazy shopping spree.

At night, Link's group would discuss the design of their new ship.

When they heard Link wanted to change ships, Kalina and the girls all raised their hands in approval.

Although the small ship had a cozy atmosphere and felt like a home, a small ship was still a small ship, and the number of rooms was limited.

When there were only four or five people at the beginning, it was barely enough.

After the number of people increased to seven, it became very crowded, requiring two people to share a room.

Especially with the three lovebirds, Link, Vivi, and Nami, who would sometimes get too carried away and couldn't control their voices, disturbing the peace at several o'clock in the morning.

The soundproofing was average, and the girls like Robin who had to share a room not only couldn't sleep but were also too embarrassed to move, resulting in faint dark circles under their eyes every morning.

Although the three of them had grown thicker-skinned over time, from being too ashamed to go out at first, to giving awkward, apologetic smiles, and finally to not caring at all, becoming immune to the glares from Robin and the other girls.

But if the ship were a bit bigger, it wouldn't affect the lives of Robin and the others.

Nami was in charge of the drawings, while Kalina and the other girls gave their opinions, and they quickly finalized the design for the new ship.

One day, Link stood in an open space.

He clapped his hands together and shouted, "Wood Style: Shipbuilding Jutsu!"

A large number of branches grew out, quickly forming a large three-masted ship.

The ship was a hundred meters long, dozens of meters wide, and the main mast was also a hundred meters high.

However, since it was formed from branches, it had no internal structure and needed to be renovated by a shipwright.

Fish-Man Island also had a shipyard, run by the brother of the master shipwright Tom.

In the following days, Nami and the girls hired a renovation team to carry out a major transformation of the new ship.

First, they painted the ship white, then they hung sails on the three masts, laid turf on the deck, turning the cabin's rooftop into a small garden, and so on...

After installing drainage and water purification systems inside the cabin, Kalina and the girls went on another major shopping spree, decorating the interior of the cabin luxuriously.

The girls, who were not short of money, chose to buy the most expensive furniture and decorations.

Even after giving a total of 1.5 billion Berries to Teach and Gekko Moriah, Link's group was still very wealthy because Link's bank deposits were also in the ten-digit range.

After leaving Fish-Man Island, Link also planned to go to the sky island to claim all the gold on Jaya.

Once he had the City of Gold in his hands, money would just be a cold set of numbers to him.

Another week passed.

Finally, having transformed the ship into their new home, Link's group, along with Shirahoshi, bid farewell to Neptune and the three princes. They flew directly into a different dimension using a Flame Cloud, returning from Fish-Man Island to the first half of the Grand Line.

To fulfill Shirahoshi's wish, Link's group retraced their original route, letting Shirahoshi see the fog-shrouded Florian Triangle, the fountain-like Water 7, Long Ring Long Land where the residents' speech and animals were all elongated, and Sandy Island, a rare super-large island.

After more than a month, Link brought Vivi back to visit Cobra again.
