The strongest warehouse manager of the Straw Hat Pirates

Yuchen dragged Luffy and Usopp away to start today's devil training.

Looking at the two crying figures being forcibly dragged away, Zoro sighed and shook his head, and then looked at Sanji who was behaving well at the side.

He asked doubtfully, "Sexy cook, I suddenly realized that after you were thrown into the sea, you behaved a lot better towards Nami."

Sanji said with tears streaming down his face, "I couldn't control it for a while before. When I saw Yu Chen kill Eric with red eyes because of Nami's injury, how could I dare? In the future, I can only treat Miss Nami Love is kept silently in my heart."

Zoro thought Sanji had changed, but he didn't expect to hear such an answer. He rolled his eyes and said, "Idiot!"

"Ah? Green algae head, what did you say?!?"

"I'm calling you an idiot, perverted cook!"

"Want to fight?!?"

"come!!"

"Can you two calm down for a while!!"

Nami looked at the two guys who were about to start a fight, then went over and punched each of them on the head, successfully breaking up the fight instantly.

The deck of the Merry was finally clear.

Morning of the third day

The Mellie sailed to the sea area where the entrance to the Grand Line is located.

At this time, the sky was covered with layers of dark clouds, and it was raining heavily.

The little boat Merry was rocking violently in the rough waves.

Everyone on the ship was busy trying to stabilize the ship.

Usopp asked breathlessly as he worked hard to collect and secure the sail.

"What's going on? Why did it start raining so heavily as soon as we got close to here? Wasn't it sunny just now?"

"It is said that this area is like this all year round! It never gets sunny at all!"

Nami responded loudly.

Finally, after everyone's efforts, the Meili was temporarily out of danger. Although it was still shaking a little, there was no longer any risk of capsizing.

Looking at the towering red earth continent not far away. Everyone let out a cry of exclamation!

"Okay, great!"

"Is this the Red Earth Continent? It's simply higher than the mountains!"

"Is it really a continent that completely surrounds the planet?"

“Upside Down Mountain is an incredible mountain!”

Nami was holding a telescope in the heavy rain to observe the location of the artificial canal Yu Chen mentioned on the Red Earth Continent.

"Everyone, you see, there is a crack on the continental wall in front of us!"

Before Nami could finish her words, suddenly, the Meili trembled and began to move straight towards the Red Earth Continent.

"What's going on! Why is the ship moving forward on its own? Aren't the sails already furled?"

Zoro looked doubtful and looked at the sails on the mast that were well furled by them.

"We have boarded the huge current rushing towards the Red Earth Continent. That's why the ship is moving!" Nami returned to the topic. "In the crack in front of us, I just saw it. There is indeed a channel through which the ship can move." An artificial canal for navigation!”

"As long as we enter the canal accurately, we can reach the Grand Line."

"Yoooo!!!"

This is the entrance to the Grand Line. As long as you can successfully take the canal, you can celebrate your successful entry into the Grand Line.

But if it fails, the ship will be washed directly to the red earth continent by the huge current, and the ship will be destroyed and everyone will die!

Nami carefully observed the direction of the Meili, fearing that if she was not careful, the Meili would deflect and crash into the Red Earth Continent.

"Usopp! Turn the helm a little to the left."

"Okay!" Usopp pushed the helm to the left hard, but it couldn't be pushed at all.

As Nami watched the Merry's course drifting further and further, she shouted anxiously, "Usopp, Usopp, hurry up!"

But he heard Usopp replying with difficulty, "I've been doing it all the time! I can't move at all! The current is too strong!"

Sanji, Luffy and others quickly ran over and were about to take action together, but were stopped by Yu Chen.

"I'll do it! The current is too strong and the rudder of the Meili can't withstand your force and it will break!"

Yu Chen took out the Fierce Tiger, walked to the stern of the ship, and kept waving it lightly. The tip of the gun continued to erupt with wind pressure like a small whirlwind, slowly pushing the Meili back to the right direction.

"Yu Chen! That's it! The heading is completely correct, that's it!"

At this time, the Meili was less than a hundred meters away from the mouth of the canal.

Just in case, Yu Chen stayed at the stern of the boat so he could adjust the direction at any time.

Amid the cheers of Luffy and others, the Merry successfully passed the entrance gate and successfully entered the climbing canal.

"Yo ho, yo ho, the Grand Line!!! We are coming in!!!"

Luffy and the others danced together arm in arm, shouting excitedly.

Perhaps because of the obstruction of the red continent, the Meili couldn't feel any raindrops as soon as it entered the canal.

Even the light shining through the clouds was brighter than before. Looking back, it seems as if the entrance completely separates the inside and outside into two worlds.

Looking at the rising canal in front of him, Luffy took a bucket out of the kitchen.

"Everyone, we have officially entered the Grand Line! Let's have a launching ceremony!"

Luffy put one of his feet on the edge of the barrel and shouted,

"I want to become the Pirate King!!!"

The other people on the boat also imitated Luffy's actions and shouted out their goals!

"I want to become the best swordsman in the world!!!"

"I want to find ALL BLUE!!!"

"I, I, I want to be a brave sea warrior!!!"

"I want to draw my own map of the world!!!"

At this time, only Yu Chen was the only one who had not yet revealed his goal, and everyone looked at him with excitement.

Yu Chen thought about it, and it seemed that he only went to sea for the sake of going to sea. At the beginning, he took the initiative to join Luffy, and he just thought that following Luffy in sailing would be very happy.

But after spending this time together, it seemed that he also had a dream.

Putting one foot on the barrel, Yu Chen shouted loudly.

"I want to accompany you, work hard to become stronger, and finally live a free life!"

After Yu Chen finished speaking, everyone looked at each other and laughed happily and excitedly.

"For the dream!! Move towards the Grand Route!!!"

"Wow!!! The Meili is going to rush into the cloud! Woohoo!!!"

Luffy was still shouting excitedly in the clouds. However, maybe because he was in the clouds, his shouts were a little weird.

After a while, the Meili broke through the clouds and continued to climb upwards, and soon reached the highest point.

With a whoosh, the Meili rushed out of the canal and flew into the air.

Looking from here, thousands of miles of white clouds are under everyone's feet, and the sun does not seem to be as dazzling as imagined.

This scene could not help but make people's hearts surge, and everyone shouted to express their emotions.

Soon, the Meili, which was in the air, began to fall downwards.

There was a feeling of weightlessness, and Luffy and the others panicked and looked for things on the ship to hold onto, so as not to be thrown out of the Merry.

Only Nami was held firmly in Yu Chen's arms, who was well prepared, and she was not frightened in any way.

The Meili, which returned to the current, was like a roller coaster, rushing downwards from top to bottom along with the current.

"Yo ho ho!!"

"This speed is so cool."

Everyone screamed in alarm, and Yu Chen was also listening attentively to the movement from below.

His ears moved, and Yu Chen secretly thought. Sure enough, in addition to the shouts of Luffy and others, there was also a burst of sad and angry shouts.

It's still far away, so I can't hear clearly. But it should be the cry of the island whale Rabu.

Yuchen let go of Nami and asked her to hold on to the railing. Take out the Fierce Tiger again, walk to the bow of the ship, and prepare to slow down.

Luffy shouted and asked, "Hey, Yuchen, why did you take out the fierce tiger!"

"slow down!"

"Ah? Just rush down, it's so fast and so exciting!!"

"Look carefully!! If you don't slow down, you will hit me."

Ignoring Luffy and the others who had question marks on their faces.

Yu Chen came to the bow of the ship, preparing to use Fierce Tiger to create wind pressure to slow down the ship.

But the Meili's speed was so fast that Yu Chen didn't dare to create significant wind pressure to slow down, otherwise the Meili would flip over entirely.

You can only swing it quickly and lightly, using only a little force each time, hoping that quantity will slowly make up for quality.

At this time, Usopp had already seen through the telescope on his head that Rab was roaring towards the sky below.

"Luffy, down, down, there's a whale down there!!! A whale as big as a mountain!!"

The others were all shocked when they heard what Usopp said, and shouted in unison, "What!!!!!!!!!"

At this time, the Merry passed through the thin clouds, and Luffy and others also saw Labu's mountain-like body.

Luffy shouted, "Yuchen, slow down a little! We will collide!!!"

Nami looked at Yuchen's movements and immediately reacted, explaining loudly, "We can't go fast. We are rushing down now. If we slow down too fast, we will roll over."

Seeing that there was less than a thousand meters left, the speed of the Meili still did not slow down much. Everyone was very nervous, but no one bothered Yu Chen.

Suddenly Yuchen shouted to Usopp,

"Usopp! Go to the cannon!!! When there are only 200 meters left, if the speed has not completely slowed down, immediately fire an ordinary cannonball straight ahead!"

Usopp was still in a daze. He didn't understand why he wanted to provoke such a big whale.

"Go and get ready! Listen to Yuchen!" Nami jumped up and down in anger when she saw that Usopp was still in a daze.

"Oh! Okay! Get ready now!" After being scolded by Nami, Usopp reacted and immediately ran towards the cannon's cabin.

While feeling the speed of the Meili, Yu Chen kept slashing. The force must also be controlled to be very small.

My head was also sweating from exhaustion.

Soon the Meili was only 600 meters away from Labu.

Meili slowed down a bit, and Yu Chen increased his strength accordingly.

400 meters, 300 meters, 200 meters,

The Meili was getting slower and slower, and Yu Chen correspondingly increased the power of the Fiery Tiger Slash. When it reached 200 meters, it finally calmed down. Although it had not stopped, the situation was no longer dangerous.

"Zoron, turn the rudder to the left. It has stabilized now. The rudder should be usable. Let's pass by the side of the whale."

Zoro nodded and went to work.

Usopp also walked out of the turret, probably relieved that he didn't attack the whale.

However, Usopp seemed to be happy too early.

When the Mellie passed by the side of the whale gently, look up at the whale's huge eyes.

Yu Chen said, "Luffy, punch the whale in the eye and let him eat us."

"What!!!!!!" Others were stunned by Yu Chen's words.
