One Piece: The Straw Hat Pirates' Mechanic

But Carl also had something to say, because he really only drank one bucket

"What about the other bucket? Did I drink it?" Zoro shouted

"Well...That bucket is for me to drink!"At this moment, Luffy raised his hand,"Because that day I saw Carl coming here to pick up Coca-Cola, and then he...."

"But it really tastes good!"

"What a delicious big-headed ghost!"Zoro instantly transformed into a sharp-fanged devil and attacked Carl and Luffy crazily.

"How are we going to get to the next island without Coke! Do I need to carry such a big warship and swim across it?"

"Well...."

"Private Marseille!!!" × 2 an hour later...

"Dang Dang Dang!!!"

"Check out my latest invention!"

On the deck, Karl stood in front of his masterpiece and said proudly.

"Isn't this just a bicycle? How can it help me with my current situation?"

Zoro thought that Carl had made something amazing, but it turned out to be just a bicycle.

"You don’t understand this!"Karl shook his finger at him and explained,"I connected the bicycle to the ship's power system."

"so?"

"As long as we pedal, we can power the ship and take us to the next island."

"Really? Carl is so awesome!"Although Luffy didn't quite understand, he still clapped his hands in support.

""What's so great about that? You don't seem to understand it at all!" Zoro complained crazily.

For the first time, Zoro felt that he was out of tune with the other two because he had a brain.

While Zoro was complaining, Luffy had already climbed onto the bicycle very skillfully and started pedaling hard.

"How about it? Did you feel it? The boat became faster."Karl said proudly.

Sauron:???

"you sure?"

"yes!"

"Where did it get faster?"

"Just pedal and that’s it!"

Although he was very doubtful about this matter, Zoro still joined in and sat on his own bicycle.

Of course, the main reason was because Luffy and Carl were both on it, and it seemed that he was standing next to him. Not good.

As the three people exerted their strength, the speed of the battleship actually accelerated significantly.

"Good, it works!"

""Let's go for it together!"

Luffy shouted the slogan, relying on the super strength brought by the rubber fruit, pedaling the bicycle faster, like a tornado, putting great pressure on Carl and Zoro who were standing side by side behind him, and they also pedaled fast.

"Can anyone tell me why someone would ride a bicycle on the sea?"

Zoro wanted to cry but had no tears.

However, for Zoro, this was a special exercise.

As a swordsman, it was reasonable to have a pair of strong thighs.

Just like that, two days passed.

The news birds running on the sea brought the latest version of the newspaper to Carl and his friends, and after giving them money, Carl also provided some snacks.

You know, on the sea, except for the Den Den Mushi, these news birds may be their only way to get news from the outside world.

If you have a good relationship with them, it can be said that there are many benefits, and all they need to pay is some worthless food.

"Stop being greedy, Luffy! I found the Nami news you wanted!"

Carl said this after patting Luffy on the head and dispelling the other person's idea of stewing Newsbird for extra meals.

"Really?"

As soon as he heard the news about Nami, Luffy immediately forgot about the roasted bird.

"Where is it?"

"It seems like there is a small island just ahead! Newsbird said that if we drive in this direction, we will arrive in about half a day."

"Wow, that bird is really nice!"

"Right! So next time, don’t stare at me with such rude eyes! There’s food in the cabin!" Carl warned unhappily,"Otherwise, I won’t come next time!"

"Got it! Carl!"

Luffy shook his head, looked at the news bird that was getting further away on the horizon, and suddenly said

"It would be great if we could also fly"

"This way we can find Nami faster!"

"Fly? It doesn’t seem impossible!"Karl said subconsciously

"Really? Carl, can you let me fly?"Luffy's hearing is always extremely sensitive at critical moments.

"Well...Let me give it a try!" Pulling Luffy away with some disgust, Carl began to think.

When it comes to flying, the easiest thing to do is a hot air balloon.

But it seems that there is no similar thing in this world.

"But speaking of it, it seems very good to install a watchtower on the ship!" Karl thought

"Hot air balloon? Is this some kind of magical device?" Luffy asked curiously.

"Well..."Carl wanted to explain to him, but when he thought of Luffy's IQ, he gave up the plan instantly,"You'll find out later."

If nothing else goes wrong, the hot air balloon should perfectly replace the function of the observation tower. The most important thing is It's low cost. It only needs a rope to tie it up. Just increase the length of the rope as high as you want. It's always cheaper than building a watchtower that high.

You can put it down when not in use, and only consume some fuel when in use.

And to be honest, Karl had never flown on a plane in his previous life. It seemed like it would be nice to occasionally try flying in the sky like a Ferris wheel.

As for the most important thing, of course, Karl can justifiably dismantle the watchtower on the ship to make machinery!

The structure of the hot air balloon is not very complicated. As for the mechanical device, Carl can directly rub it out with his hands. Although it may be slightly different from the one in his previous life, it is still enough to be used.

As for the balloon, Karl went directly to the cabin to find a spare sail, cut it and installed it.

Since there were no scissors, Zoro had to do this work for him.

"Is that all right?" Luffy stood in the basket of the hot air balloon, like a curious baby.

"Can this thing really fly?" Zoro on the side also had a question mark on his head. To be honest, he had never experienced the feeling of flying.

"It should be fine." Carl was actually unsure, so he let Luffy be the first test subject. This guy has thick skin and strong muscles, so even if the plane crashes, it shouldn't be a big problem.

"Luffy, listen to me, this is the fire switch, the bigger the fire, the higher it will fly, and this is to control the direction."

After explaining to Luffy in detail how to control the hot air balloon, Carl lit the fire.

The flames burned up, and the hot air rose, causing the balloon to expand.

Then, in the surprised eyes of the three people, the balloon began to slowly leave the ground and rise into the sky.
