Li Yu revealed a sly smile when he saw the shocked look on Kirby's face. He also saw the change in his right hand. And this change was completely within his expectations!
When Li Yu was very young, his father had taught him: "The starting point and ending point of people are actually the same. As long as one is willing to work hard, anyone can become a dragon among the people. However, there were many paths to the destination. There were detours, straight paths, and shortcuts! However, if you were already in your seventies or eighties and became the strongest in the world on the last day before you died, would that be meaningful?”
Ever since he heard his father's words, Li Yu had been thinking about it over and over again. He had always remembered it in his heart and followed his father's instructions. He was cynical and liked to play tricks. In the past, he used to use Sap in group battles. Although this move was sinister, it also made him one of Qiang Bro's most capable subordinates.
Li Yu's life principle was,"If there's a shortcut, never take the straight road, and if there's a straight road, never take a detour!"”When he saw the green stone in front of him, he already had a plan in mind. And this plan could very well allow him to achieve his dream of being the strongest in the world within three years!
First of all, whether it was to assist in cultivation or to carry it with him to heal injuries, it was a treasure that was hard to come by! Not to mention healing his injuries, with this stone, Li Yu didn't have to wake up early every day to wait for the sun to rise and meditate. As long as he wanted to, he could absorb the energy in the stone while he slept.
Thinking of this, Li Yu's blood boiled! He was overjoyed. This was like an adder. Others had spent the same amount of time and effort as him, but his results were several times, or even dozens of times, that of those people!
How could this be described as 'pleasant'?
Li Yu suddenly burst into laughter. Kirby recovered from his shock and saw that Li Yu's bleeding right hand had already formed a scab, and his bleeding left hand had also stopped bleeding. He couldn't believe what he was seeing. He couldn't help but mutter,""Is…is this true?"
Li Yu patted him on the shoulder and didn't answer. He just smiled and said,""It's time to go. We should go back and eat!”
Kirby looked at the green stone thoughtfully and nodded. He followed Li Yu's footsteps and once again entered the depths of the forest-the way back.
******************
The principle and function of the green gemstone couldn't be explained in a short time. Li Yu only told James and Kirby that it was a good treasure that could help people heal wounds. Also, as long as it was placed next to them, as long as it was within 50 meters, it would improve their martial arts by leaps and bounds. James quickly said that he didn't believe it, but Kirby nodded. He had seen it with his own eyes, so he naturally believed it now!
A few days later, because James was busy building ships, only Kirby and Li Yu stayed in the backyard of the shipyard to practice. Relying on the principle of condensing energy from the green stone, the two of them had improved by leaps and bounds. Although they used the same Ghost Slash and Tiger Hunt, Li Yu's current technique was completely different from the original.
Looking at the deep ravine on the ground, Li Yu smiled. At the same time, a glass wall that was hundreds of feet wide appeared on Kirby's side.
Now that the other party's strength had increased by a large margin, Li Yu and Ke Bi looked at each other and smiled. They were both grateful for the green light stone. Kirby secretly regretted. Why did he treat such a good treasure as a glass ball at that time?
At this moment, a boatman suddenly ran into the backyard. He saw Li Yu and Kirby practicing and said happily,""Sauron, Kebi, the new ship…the new ship has been built!”
Li Yu was pleasantly surprised. He didn't expect James to be able to build ships so quickly! Kirby was also very excited. He rushed to the shipyard construction site with Li Yu.
When they arrived at the construction site, James had been waiting there with the boatmen for a long time. Behind them was a huge ship covered in black cloth. When James saw Li Yu and Kirby rushing over, a touch of pride flashed across his face."Although it took me half a month, this ship is far better than I imagined!”After saying that, he retreated in a flash. The black cloth was also pulled open by the boatmen at the same time, and the magnificent hull immediately appeared in front of Li Yu and the others.
The sunlight was dazzling, and everything was brand new! The entire boat was mainly blue, giving people a refreshing and natural feeling. On the bow of the ship was a ferocious shark head. The shark's teeth were exposed, and they were still cold in the sunlight. Li Yu recognized them. They were the teeth he had left when he hunted sea kings some time ago. It turned out that James was using them to build ships!
Li Yu was touched and muttered to himself,""Kid, you really know how to use trash!”He whispered, but James heard him. His eyes lit up."Thank you for your compliment, Captain!" He introduced the basic structure of the ship to Li Yu and Kebi.
This ship was considered a medium-sized ship, while Luffy's Golden Merry was considered a medium-sized ship. Therefore, the new ship of the Ghost Pirates was obviously much larger than the Golden Meryl.
In addition to the shark design at the bow of the ship, James had also specially set up a small fishing platform, a deck lawn, and a fruit plantation outside the cabin. They could grow many kinds of fruits. With these things, they could deal with the infection caused by long-term sailing at sea! The cabin was divided into three levels, two above ground and one underground. Every floor had been repeatedly pondered and designed by James, so the space arrangement was reasonable and not crowded.
There was a captain's training room on the first floor of the basement, which was used to store Li Yu's fitness equipment. The room was very spacious, which was his special request. There was also the insect room that James had designed himself. The room was filled with warm sawdust and newspapers, as well as fresh meat and vegetables to feed the insects. James used to raise bugs in the crew room of the Duck of Love, which caused strange things like cabbages, cockroaches, and centipedes to appear in their beds when they woke up. Although they weren't afraid, it was uncomfortable for anyone to sleep with bugs. As a result, Li Yu would wake up every day in a bad mood and shout loudly. This time, James had learned his lesson, so he specially arranged a bug room! Apart from that, there was also a washroom, a cannon firing platform, and other rooms on the basement level. Li Yu nodded in satisfaction as he listened to James.
As for the first floor, James specially took care of the ship's doctor who had not yet been recruited and set up a doctor's health room. Because there was no doctor in the health room, there were no expensive medicinal herbs. There were only some daily medical bandages and medicine. These things were very commonly used by their captain, Li Yu, the masochist! After that, there was a spacious kitchen. When they were building the blueprint, Li Yuning had somehow made James enlarge the blueprint of the kitchen even though he could reduce the area of the other rooms. When James asked Li Yu why, he only said,""Because I don't have absolute confidence that I can definitely make 'him' a Phantom Chef!”As for the " he " he mentioned, James asked for a long time, but Li Yu just shook his head and said nothing.
The crew's bedroom was also designed on the first floor. There were five beds in the clean room, two of which were prepared for the crew members who joined Gui Mei later. There was also a washbasin, as well as the crew's wardrobes, shoe cabinets, and daily necessities cabinets.
On the second floor, there was Kirby's nautical measurement room. There was a sea level measuring instrument placed there to detect the situation in the nearby sea area and deal with sudden abnormalities. Moreover, Kirby's nautical diary and nautical map were placed in the measurement room. In addition, the bathroom and granary were also built on the second floor.
Kirby noticed that James didn't introduce the female crew room when he introduced the rooms. In fact, other pirate groups had special male and female crew rooms, but Ghost didn't arrange a place for women to stay. The meaning was obvious-because the captain hated women!
Li Yu looked at the shiny hull and was extremely excited. His body was like an arrow that had left the bow, charging straight towards the new ship. Before anyone could react, he gently leaped and arrived on the deck in the blink of an eye. James 'eyes sparkled as he looked at Li Yu with admiration."So fast!"
At this time, Li Yu had already started to look around the rooms of the new ship. The first was the gym he used for training. Although there was no fitness equipment here, Li Yu was very satisfied with this spacious and sturdy room! He walked onto the deck with a smile. This place was much better than Arita's "mIss Duck of Love." Not to mention the fact that it was filled with pink hearts, which annoyed Li Yu, this new ship had simple cabins and rooms. There were many but not messy cabins, and it was not easy to get lost. How great was that? (Li Yu has a bad sense of direction)
After touring the entire cabin, Li Yu strolled around the deck. James and Kirby were already on board. At this moment, James 'eyes were shining with pride. He said excitedly to Li Yu,""Sauron, I have a very important item to show you! Are you coming?" Although he asked this question, he couldn't wait to pull Li Yu by his sleeve to the cabin on the first floor.
After bypassing the crew quarters, the kitchen, and the health room, the two of them walked all the way to the last room on the first floor. Li Yu was surprised to see a small room here. He hadn't noticed it when he was strolling around!
James was so innocent and cute. He was so focused on the bugs and building ships that he was like a child. He pointed at a strange machine in the small room and waited for Li Yu to praise him.
Only half of the machine was exposed in the room. The blue body looked more like an iron box embedded in the wall of the ship. The other half of the iron box was embedded in the outside of the ship!
Li Yu pointed at the thing that looked more like a motive and asked in confusion,""This is…?" James revealed a smug look on his face and said with a smile,""I call it a 'wind power motor'. It can store a certain amount of wind power and use it as an emergency energy source when there is no wind power. This is an idea I came up with a long time ago, but it's only now that it's really put to use!”
Li Yu couldn't hide his excitement. He never thought that a young man rescued at sea would bring him so much benefit. He didn't invite James because he valued his ship repairing skills. He invited James because he suddenly had an idea-- After that, he heard that James knew how to repair boats, so Li Yu pulled him onto the boat.
Li Yu's unintentional action at that time had actually uncovered a hidden talent in One Piece. How could he not be excited?
Frank was the last disciple of the world's number one shipsmith, Mr. Tom. Frank only knew how to use coke as raw materials to make wind cannons. It was the same principle as their " wind power engine." James was still very young. If he was given some time and space, his future achievements were unknown!
James didn't know what Li Yu was thinking. He just explained the principle of motivation to him. It was to collect too much wind power, convert it into energy, and store it in the form of energy in the motivation. When the wind power was weak and needed to be used, he just needed to press the button, and the fan in the motivation would consume energy and operate on its own, thus pushing the pirate ship forward.
Li Yu was overjoyed. He gave James a thumbs up and smiled."This is the ship you built, so give it a name!”Since they were brothers, Li Yu swallowed the words of gratitude he was about to say and only asked James to name the new ship.
James scratched his head. He really didn't have any talent in naming. He said slowly,""It's called…Buggy?"
Li Yu was a little regretful.
"Cabbage worm…?"”
Li Yu was extremely remorseful.
"Long Centipede?"
Li Yu decided to think about it himself.
"Worm nest…" Before he could finish, Li Yu shouted and interrupted him."James! It was clearly a shark at the bow, a shark! Where did you see the cabbage caterpillar, long centipede, and insect nest from?”
James swallowed his saliva. He was intimidated by Li Yu's authority and muttered," But you asked me to say it…" His life consisted of nothing but bugs and shipbuilding. How could he come up with an innovative name? Li Yu wanted to say something, but his ears suddenly twitched. He turned to look at the door and saw Kirby walking in.
He smiled at the two of them and walked over. He smiled lightly and said,"In my opinion…let's call it Sea God!”
