Ship Modifications, Loguetown
The snails began their ascent.
Because it is a snail, it can carry its heavy shell and climb upwards step by step.
"This is so convenient!"
Hiyori some curiosity.
Below, countless giant snails, carrying heavy shells, climbed step by step up the red mountain wall.
Although the snail started to climb upwards, the people on its back still felt as if they were walking on flat ground.
"Wouldn't that mean we could travel freely in any part of the ocean?"
Black Maria laughed and said, "It seems much more convenient than our ship."
The Sirius is currently being carried by a few snails; it doesn't have the ability to traverse the Red Line.
"Don't say such things, Maria,"
Sirius smiled and said, "The Sirius is an important partner of ours."
"As for companions, they don't need to be perfect in every way. As long as they can accompany us on adventures, that's enough, right?"
"Kindness!"
Yamato nodded heavily.
"If Mr. Sirius doesn't mind, I can help modify that ship."
Judge walked over.
"Oh?"
Sirius raised an eyebrow. "Is that alright?"
"Of course, it's very simple."
"Great! I've always wanted to change the Sirius's paint scheme. The yellow is a bit too bright and doesn't quite suit my style."
Sirius, "How about we add some of our pirate ship's characteristics to the design as well? How about adding a wolf's head?"
"Kindness..."
Yamato thought for a moment, then made a peace sign, "Two!"
"Hey, didn't you just say it doesn't need to be perfect in every aspect?" Jack was speechless.
"I'm doing this to make it better."
Sirius sighed, "As a partner, I want to make it a better version of itself."
Jack remained silent.
The swarm of snails continued upwards and soon broke through the clouds.
The Red Line is really high; once you reach the halfway point, the clouds are already flowing beneath you.
"It's so beautiful!"
Yamato gazed at the vast sea of clouds in the distance, somewhat lost in thought.
"Yes."
Sirius said with a smile.
Before them stretched a sky full of clouds, like a vast, boundless ocean of clouds.
Sirius recalled ten years ago when he left the Desert Island with Uncle Kaido.
The scene he saw that day was pretty much the same.
The snail swarm continued upwards and soon reached the summit of the Red Line.
This was Sirius's first time visiting this place.
The Red Line that encircles the world shares some similarities with his younger brother, who possesses similar abilities.
This is the highest point in the world, the place closest to the stars.
"It's a desolate wasteland."
Page One gazed at the crimson land, looking as far as the eye could see, but could see nothing else.
All that can be seen is desolation.
It's a rugged beauty, full of wildness.
But in the end, it will only be desolate.
Legend has it that long ago, life existed on the Red Line.
That's what Judge said.
"Oh?"
Sirius became interested.
Are they from the Lunarian Tribe?
The race of Teacher King was known as the race of gods in the distant past.
"The North Sea has long been associated with legends of gods who dwell above the clouds, and who are said to have brought fire to the human world."
"Fire?" Sirius, somewhat surprised.
Judge laughed and said, "It's just a legend; nobody really knows the specifics."
"I see."
Sirius nodded slightly.
So it must be the Lunarian Tribe.
How intriguing! The secrets hidden within this world.
The Red Line was quite vast, and it took the snails quite a while to reach the other side, where they began to descend vertically.
After descending through the clouds, an incredibly vast ocean came into view.
"So this is the East Blue?"
Yamato looked around curiously, "It doesn't seem much different from the North Sea?"
"Isn't that obvious?"
Sirius laughed and said, "Most of the world's seas are pretty much the same."
"Besides the Grand Line, what distinguishes each sea area are the diverse people and the cultures they have created."
He smiled and said, "The East Blue is where it all began."
This is the hometown of Roger and his Straw Hat.
"Kindness!"
Yamato was eager to go, "I really want to get to Loguetown! I want to see the scenery that the Pirate King saw at the end of his life!"
"Don't worry, we'll be there soon."
It's almost there.
The snails soon reached the sea.
Because Sirius wanted to go to Loguetown, Judge didn't dare to delay and immediately spurred his horse toward the town.
Loguetown was originally a town that guarded the entrance from the East Blue to the Reverse Mountain, and it was not far from the Red Line.
Soon, the enormous swarm of snails reached the sea area near Loguetown.
However, I didn't log in directly.
"We don't feel comfortable exposing ourselves to others,"
Judge said, "That's all I can do for you, Mr. Sirius."
"Thank you very much, King Judge."
Sirius smiled and thanked him.
Regardless of Judge's motives, he was indeed very kind to them and even helped them a great deal.
A thank you is certainly appropriate.
"The ship has been modified and is ready to be used right away."
Soon, Sirius saw the Sirius after its renovation.
"Oh!!"
Yamato's eyes widened. "So cool!"
The Sirius has been completely transformed.
The originally rounded hull has been elongated, becoming more streamlined.
The paint job was also changed to pure black, reflecting the dim light of the sun.
On each side of the bow of the ship is a half-wolf head relief.
If you look closely, they resemble Yamato and the Sirius form, respectively.
He's very handsome.
He looks much more handsome than before.
"This ship is already perfect."
"I just made some minor modifications to the hull and added a jet system," Judge said.
"The Energy System is great, but using only propellers is a bit monotonous."
"That's really good."
Sirius was very pleased. "Thank you very much, King Judge."
To be able to complete this level of transformation in such a short time, this level of technical capability is simply laughable.
Then it was time to say goodbye.
Sirius and Judge exchanged contact information. Scientists like Judge, who weren't too much of a scoundrel, were extremely rare on this sea.
Judge was so excited he couldn't contain himself.
Isn't this why he's so warm and attentive?
Then Sirius boarded the brand-new Sirius and set off.
It must be said that the changes brought about by the dual -Power System are enormous.
The Sirius was fast enough in the past, but now it's even faster.
Loguetown was already very close, and with this speed, an island soon appeared on the sea ahead.
This is the town where the beginning and the end begin.
