Chapter 204: Return of the Partner

Finding Usopp is not a complicated matter.

He said he was reluctant, but when he heard that he could save the Melly, his whole attitude suddenly changed 180 degrees. In the past few days, after thinking calmly alone, he didn't think he could do it. That's right, but things have reached this point. If there is no suitable step, he will naturally not be able to get off.

"Sanji, Zoro, you didn't lie to me, did you?"

Sanji raised his eyebrows slightly: "Do you think we would joke about this kind of thing?"

After hearing Sanji's tone, Usopp knew that Sanji was still upset about his unauthorized disembarkation. After hesitating for a moment, Usopp stood in front of Sanji and whispered: "I'm sorry."

After Zoro and Sanji looked at each other, their complicated expressions still didn't dissipate much.

"If you are just apologizing to us because the Merry can be repaired, then you don't have to do that. Even if you don't say anything, we will repair the Merry! It is not only your partner, but also ours!"

"No! No! Even if the Merry ship cannot be repaired, I still want to apologize to you. I know that I have caused you a lot of trouble because of my willfulness..."

Sanji and Zoro finally felt a little relieved.

"Okay, you should tell Luffy and Rey this kind of thing, but I won't forgive you next time!"

"me too."

After Zoro finished speaking, Sanji echoed.

"Ah! So, do you forgive me?"

"Hmph! Where's all this nonsense? Quickly drive the Melly to the ship-breaking yard. Once Franky and the others have repaired the ship, we can set off!"

"Franky?! Wasn't that guy the one who stole our money! How could they repair our boat?"

"It's a long story. I'll explain it to you slowly when I have time!"

Usopp didn't ask any more questions about this kind of thing. After hearing that the ship could be repaired, the thorns in his heart were eradicated one by one.

For him, the Merry is more than just a ship, it is more like a spiritual sustenance belonging to Usopp. Therefore, in his eyes, the Meili is as important as his companions, so now that he doesn't have to give up any of them, it is naturally the best thing.

When Frankie saw the drawings, he quickly became obsessed.

Although Usopp and Merry haven't come back yet, he has already had the materials prepared.

"Hey! Have you seen this piece of wood? This is the hardest wood in the world, harder than steel! Even much harder than steel! Don't you know that buying this piece of wood will cost a lot of money? He gave me 100 million berries!”

"Hmph, it's our 100 million Beli! How dare you say it?"

After Nami heard what Franky said, she couldn't help but make trouble behind her.

"Hehe, your money is going to be used to repair the ship anyway, isn't it just right now!"

"Why are you so embarrassed to say it? If there were no drawings, you obviously wanted to monopolize it!"

"Shhhhh~"

"Don't pretend you can't hear. Besides, you didn't blow the whistle! Chopper, don't imitate him, you will become unlovable!"

"oh......"

Not long after, the Merry slowly sailed over from the sea. On the deck, stood Usopp, Sanji and Zoro.

Seeing Usopp from a distance, Rey clearly felt a complicated look flashing in Luffy's eyes.

Indeed, even if Luffy didn't say anything, how could he not care about Usopp's actions?

Luffy raised his hand to push down his straw hat and turned away from looking at Usopp.

Rey knew what Luffy cared about, so he didn't say anything.

Usopp stood on the deck and saw Luffy and Rey at a glance.

"Luffy, Rey, I'm back! Aren't you coming to greet me?" Usopp shouted. Obviously he wanted to use this joking approach to lighten the atmosphere, but Luffy and Rey didn't care. Moved.

Chopper has always been innocent, so when he heard Usopp's shout, he immediately wanted to rush forward, but Nami held him in her arms.

"Nami?"

Chopper turned back to look at Nami, but Nami said nothing.

After receiving no response, Usopp's face was clearly filled with disappointment.

"It seems that they are really angry with me. It is true that I have gone too far. How could they not be angry... They may have disowned me as a partner... I should What should I do?!" Usopp's mind was already in a mess.

As the ship approached, Franky's group of men stepped forward to secure the ship, and Usopp, Sanji, and Zoro also stepped off the ship.

The three of them walked closer to the crowd, but Luffy still didn't look at him.

Nami was about to say something, but Usopp interrupted her and said, "I'm sorry!"

After saying that, he knelt down in front of everyone.

"Usopp..."

"Usopp..."

"..."

At this time, everyone shouted his name in unison, and what Usopp did was obviously beyond everyone's expectations.

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I was wrong. I shouldn't be so willful. I was too naughty. But I really can't bear to leave any of my companions, including the Merry and you... I can't bear to leave them. In fact, no matter whether you can save the Merry or not, I am ready to come to you to apologize, so I hope you can still take me in..."

Usopp was in tears. Chopper has always been full of emotions, so at this time, his face was also full of tears.

Luffy's shoulders shrugged slightly. At this time, he suddenly turned around. At a glance, he was also full of snot and tears. This look was extremely funny.

"Usopp, I forgive you! Welcome back, my companion!"

After saying that, Luffy threw his hands forward and became huge, and then hugged Rey, Nami, Robin, Chopper, Sanji, Zoro and Usopp together.

After seeing Luffy's behavior,

Nami couldn't help but say: "This idiot..."

But after a group of friends were gathered together, Nami's eyes were filled with tears.

Franky was standing on the Merry at this time. When he saw Luffy and his group, he couldn't help but smile and said: "What a touching friendship!"

But before he finished speaking, he heard Sanji and Zoro shouting: "I can't breathe! I can't breathe!"

"Luffy, you idiot! Let go! Let go!"

Franky's face changed slightly at this time.

"Uh, I take back what I said just now..."
