The Ship Fairies Are About to Set Sail

The world is in turmoil, whether it's the four seas, Gaya Island, or the New World.

The Night Pirates remained largely unaffected; all was calm as they awaited their next departure.

In fact, although there were many things that needed to be repaired for the three pirate ships, with so many top Galley-La Shipyard masters and craftsmen working around these three pirate ships, it wouldn't actually take long; everything was done in just a few days.

Furthermore, the workmanship is excellent, using the best materials and top-notch craftsmen. Even the patterns on the ship are clearly and exquisitely carved.

This is a multi-billion dollar order, and they don't want to ruin their reputation. Besides, it's arguably the best ship they've ever built. For every shipwright, the ship they build is like their child.

Moreover, the Night Pirates have a renowned reputation and a formidable name; they dare not make any mistakes.

Most of their time was actually spent on weapon manufacturing; they had to build the main guns themselves, but this task was handled by Otto.

Otto was very efficient. After eating the Machine Fruit, mechanical arms grew from his body to assist him in his work.

They crafted each precise and complex part and then assembled them. At Teach's request, they also carried out some unknown modifications to the Queen Anne. On the surface, there were no changes, but some spaces were hidden inside the ship.

Hidden within were mechanical arms and concealed weapons, employing Otto's prized biomechanical technology, which also contained energy technology he had absorbed from lunar technology.

This energy technology bears a striking resemblance to the technology in Pluton's design blueprints. Although it had been speculated before, it is now confirmed that Pluton Blueprints incorporated technology from the moon.

After the Moon People arrived on this planet, they must have inherited many technologies; otherwise, a warship like Pluton would not have been possible.

However, these technologies have now been largely lost and destroyed, after all, the God's Country eight hundred years ago had entered the realm of gods.

It's hard to say whether the destruction of the God's Country and the establishment of the World Government represent a regression in world history.

Eight hundred years later, Vegapunk appeared, and someone else stepped into this field again.

These robotic arms are living beings, unable to operate autonomously. They require human intervention and a connection to their lives and spirits. Now, these robotic arms are all connected to the Queen Anne's Revenge.

Teach transformed it into a war fortress, and will continue to modify it.

"Captain, grant life to the Queen Anne's Revenge? That's a difficult task." Otto frowned at Teach's request.

His life-mechanical technology, rather than giving life to machines, is more about giving spirituality to inanimate objects.

It's impossible for machines to have their own consciousness, so they need to be controlled by people. Whether it's a robotic arm or a robotic hand, they are all connected to people and controlled freely by them.

But to Otto, giving a ship life was simply a pipe dream.

He also knew Teach's thoughts. If the Queen Anne's Revenge had a life of its own, it wouldn't need to be controlled by its own consciousness; the ship would fight on its own, and these mechanical arms could move on their own. Otherwise, he would have to control it.

This is undoubtedly a wonderful idea.

"Otto, everything breathes." Teach smiled in response to Otto's puzzlement.

Otto naturally understood Teach's words. He was familiar with both Observation Haki and the Swordmaster's ability to sense the breath of all things and cut through iron.

In short, everything has life, and the Queen Anne's Revenge is no exception.

But in Otto's eyes, the Queen Anne's Revenge was always an inanimate object, because it was a newly born ship. Although there were legends of Ship Fairy in this world, such a ship could not possibly possess consciousness.

For the Ship Fairy, the right opportunity cannot arise without a certain amount of time.

"My technology can give this ship life, but what about consciousness? Should we wait until it comes into being autonomously generated later?" Otto voiced his question. Having seen the blueprints for the Ancient Weapon Pluton, he knew that Pluton had a crucial core element: the Ship Fairy.

Pluton is a ship with a life of its own; it's hard to imagine how Ship Fairy as material.

As for the idea of waiting for the Queen Anne's Revenge to give birth to Ship Fairy, he found it utterly absurd. The probability of Ship Fairy being born was extremely small; there were only a few legends about it on the high seas, and no one had ever even seen one. He considered it a foolish rumor.

"Consciousness, didn't it already exist?" Teach asked with a smile, turning his head to look out the window from his high vantage point, gazing diagonally downwards at the port of Water Seven.

There, five pirate ships were moored, and the Night Pirates' flag fluttered in the wind.

Noticing the direction Teach was looking, Otto seemed to realize something, his pupils suddenly contracted, and he opened his mouth in disbelief.

"You... you mean, the Lucky Goddess?"

"Hmm." Teach nodded calmly, gazing at the Lucky Goddess in the distance. He seemed to see a figure sitting on the mast of the Lucky Goddess, gently swinging his legs, also looking at him.

But soon, it seemed to smile at him, then gradually disappeared, as if sinking into the ship.

"When did this happen?" Otto couldn't help but ask. The birth of Ship Fairy the Lucky Goddess made him take it seriously, and as a result, the consciousness of the Queen Anne's Revenge also came into being.

But how do we transfer the Ship Fairy from the Lucky Goddess to the Queen Anne's Revenge?

This is a problem, and a very mysterious one at that, one that has touched upon Otto's blind spots. But judging from Teach's expression, he seems to have a solution.

When did this happen? Teach didn't know when the Ship Fairy of the Lucky Goddess was born.

However, when Teach realized that the Lucky Goddess of Ship Fairy who had landed them on the Blue Sea from the Sky Island, he musically sensed the ship's joy, this joyful emotion.

The true birth of the Ship Fairy the Lucky Goddess must have occurred much earlier.

"Alright, I will." Otto nodded, preparing to use his biomechanical technology on the Queen Anne's Revenge.

Since biomechanical technology can give life to cold machines, it is actually easier for a ship, so it is not difficult for Otto.

Everything else was completed; this was the final step before the Night Pirates set sail.

The entire shipyard has been emptied and is guarded by members of the Night Pirates. The shipwrights have also been driven out, and besides, they have no work to do now, since the timber reserves in Water Seven are almost exhausted.

The modifications the Night Pirates made to the Queen Anne's Revenge must not be known to outsiders. In their eyes, it was the Night Pirates installing weapons on three ships.

Late at night, Teach arrived alone on the Lucky Goddess, went to the bow, and sat on the statue of the goddess.

Holding a bottle of Monkey Wine in his hand, he hadn't actually drunk this kind of wine in a long time. After all, he didn't have many of his treasured bottles, and this was the last one. Teach had never been willing to drink it.

Now, however, he has taken it out.

There were still crew members on the pirate ship, since someone needed to stay behind. Kaguya was training in the training room, and some crew members also liked to stay on the ship.

They probably knew they were getting a new ship, and they also had some attachment to the Lucky Goddess, so they wanted to stay a little longer.

No one disturbed him.

I opened the bottle, held a glass in my hand, and gently inhaled the rich aroma of the wine, which drifted away on the breeze towards the sea.

Teach raised his hand, took the bottle, poured a glass of wine into it, and then stood the bottle upright to one side.

I took a small sip.

Gradually, without anyone noticing, a thick fog appeared, enveloping the surroundings and obscuring the view in the distance.

Teach knew that the Ship Fairy the Lucky Goddess had appeared.

The appearance of the Ship Fairy is often accompanied by thick fog, and Teach has already sensed its presence.

They appeared behind Teach, back to back.

Teach never imagined that the Lucky Goddess would give birth to Ship Fairy, but it is a fact.

Why did it come into being? Teach stopped thinking about it. After all, the birth of Ship Fairy requires opportunity, and it might be influenced by the power of Baccarat's Lucky-Lucky Fruit.

After all, if we're talking about who Baccarat used her abilities on most besides herself, it would undoubtedly be the Lucky Goddess.

Under their protection, the Lucky Goddess suffered little damage and underwent regular maintenance.

The voyage had been spectacular enough. They had been to many places and experienced many battles. The Lucky Goddess was stained with the sweat of many crew members and witnessed their growth.

The air was somewhat still, and perhaps even tinged with sadness—a transmission of emotion. The Lucky Goddess knew her fate was sealed; she would be destroyed and buried in the sea.

"I really want to sail with you all again, fight alongside you, and go to so many places we've never been before." The Ship Fairy's voice came from behind, sounding like a little girl, with a hint of tears in it.

But it also knew that this was impossible; the Lucky Goddess could no longer carry the Night Pirates.

The environment of the New World is far more dangerous than that of the Grand Line. While the materials used in the Four Seas are of good quality, they become somewhat outdated in the New World.

After all, the best shipbuilding materials are mostly produced along the Grand Line and in the New World.

"You can come together," Teach smiled. "There's room for you on the new ship."

Teach's voice startled it for a moment.

"Really?"

"Continue sailing with us, Lucky Goddess. We will never forget you. From now on, you will be Queen Anne's Revenge." Teach knew that the ship was the vessel of the Ship Fairy, and its birth was related to another ship. If it were replaced by another ship, it would not disappear. Although some changes would occur, its essence would not change.

This kind of life is special; it's hard to imagine that such a being could exist in this world.

"But..." It was tempted, yet hesitant. It was born on the Lucky Goddess, but now it had to be abandoned.

"We need you." At that moment, a voice came. Turning around, they found that it was Baccarat walking over. Her figure appeared in the thick fog, looking at the Ship Fairy with curious eyes.

There were still some people outside, but they didn't approach. After finding nothing was wrong, they waited outside the thick fog. Baccarat, who had a premonition, went inside.

The strange, thick fog, appearing out of nowhere, naturally attracted the attention of the other members, who all rushed over.

Seemingly influenced by Baccarat's words, the Ship Fairy nodded, as if she had come to a realization, and a smile appeared on her face. "Please continue to guide me in the future, and let's fight together."

With a laugh, its body dissipated and sank into the ship, while the thick fog gradually dissipated.

Many people were unaware of what had happened, but Teach didn't hide anything and told them about the Ship Fairy.

"I never knew such a thing existed. This is truly eye-opening."

"But I haven't seen it with my own eyes yet."

"Hehe, you'll have your chance in the future." Seeing their interest, Teach smiled.

"Get some rest. We'll officially set sail tomorrow."

Early the next morning, many crew members were already up, as it was time for them to board the new ship, and just as they were to personally destroy the old one.

The shipyard's gates, towering tens of meters high, opened to reveal a long, narrow waterway, making it impossible to launch into the water from there.

Beneath the waterways lies a long track that leads all the way to the shores of Water Seven.

In the center of the pirate ship and the track, there is a small car-like machine that can slide on the track.

Even so, the sheer size of these three pirate ships required a great deal of manpower to pull them.

"Mr. Teach, look at this." The mayor of Water Seven was somewhat embarrassed. Their craftsmen couldn't move the three pirate ships, or rather, they could move them, but the progress was slow.

"You guys go help," Teach nodded and said to the other members around him.

The news that the Night Pirates' ship was about to be launched had spread throughout Water Seven long before it was launched.

Many residents were curious, as the Night Pirates' ship had never been exposed despite the rumors.

No secrets stay hidden forever. Some news has already leaked out these past few days. The lavish order alone, worth billions of Beli, is enough to shock people and make them realize just how wealthy the Night Pirates.

That's a fact; everyone knows the Night Pirates wealthy.

Many people had already gotten up and were waiting at the launch site of Water Seven, eager to see the Night Pirates' ship for themselves.

Five pirate ships, including the Lucky Goddess, also left the port and were driven to the shore where they were about to launch.

Many people are watching closely, and hidden among the crowd are reporters and even Reporter Bird, all hoping to capture firsthand information.

After all, the upcoming departure of the Night Pirates and the order worth billions are Big News Morgans for many people.
