Ultimate Fruit - Volume 1 Chapter 85 To The New World

 

AN: Sorry for delay. I do not have much time recently due to work huhu ;_;

…

As the celebration continued, Shirahoshi looked into the distance with a longing expression.

King Neptune saw her look and sighed. He knew that his daughter had wanted to see the surface world for a while now but due to her identity, he has no choice but to continue and lock her away from the world.

Others may not know, but he knows. Shirahoshi is one of the so-called ancient weapons that is able to command the Sea Kings.

In a world surrounded by ocean, this was a deadly ability that can destroy islands at will…not to mention that the Sea Kings are also used to pull the gigantic ship Noah which is known to be the Ship of Promise…if she were to surface to the human world and the nobles learn of her existence, their Fishman Island may not survive the outcome!

As he was thinking this, his eyes noticed a certain man looking at him with a knowing smile. It was Lucas.

He left his wife for a moment and walked over to King Neptune and spoke the words that he wanted to hear.

“There is no reason for you to be afraid.”

Lucas smiled with confidence.

“Soon, the world will fear something else more than the ancient weapons.”

His smile turned into a fearless grin looking down over the rest of the world.

“By then, as long as I say it…no one can lay a finger on your daughter.”

“…Fear…what?”

Lucas laughed.

“Me.”

Without paying him any more attention, Lucas walked back to Nami and the rest, leaving King Neptune completely speechless.

Neptune smiled wryly.

Such a huge proclamation…can this human truly do it?

No, if it’s him…then maybe

King Neptune fell into deep thought as he started to plan ahead. Shockingly enough, in his plans, there was only the scenario of Lucas fulfilling his declaration and not one scenario based on him failing!

Lucas walked back to Nami and the rest and started to chat without worries but in his mind, his conviction had strengthened as he remembered what he told Roger back then.

Shirahoshi approached him and asked.

“U-umm, Lucas-sama, thank you for taking me out of the tower!”

“It was Luffy who suggested it, why are you thanking me?”

“Eh? But, they said it was Lucas-sama who acted against Decken-sama”

“Hm? They?”

Did Franky and Jinbei tell her about it? But did they even know it was me?

Lucas was confused but was even more confused when Shirahoshi continued to explain.

“Umm…I don’t really understand it, I just heard a voice in my head saying it”

“Huh?”

At this moment, Luffy approached Lucas from behind and patted on his back hard.

“Hey! I heard you took care of that Vander guy! I told you to stay out of it!”

“Huh? You heard it too? Where?”

“What do you mean where? Obviously I heard it from…eh? Where did I hear it again? That’s weird, I just heard a voice earlier. Who was it?”

Luffy’s head was full of question marks and seemed to have already forgotten being angry at Lucas.

Lucas sighed but was still just as confused.

…Was it those Sea Kings? They noticed me?

“My Daddy is amazing! He stopped the bad guy like woosh! Then he moved a huuuuuuuuge ship! Daddy’s the strongest!”

Huh? Was that Luna?

Lucas turned to look who was speaking and indeed saw Luna excitedly telling a story to the Medaka quintuplets and Kirahoshi who had joined in as well.

Lucas was even more confused now.

How come Luna also knows about it?

“Luna, where did you hear that story from?”

“Ah! Daddy! I heard it from my fish friends!”

“…Fish…friends?”

Lucas didn’t expect such an answer so he asked again.

“Do you mean…mermaids?”

Luna shook her head cutely and waved her arms to the side.

“Noo! I mean very big fish friends! As big as that ship!”

Looking over to where Luna was pointing, Lucas saw the ship Noah.

Right now, his head was full of question marks.

He can still understand it a bit if Shirahoshi and Luffy can hear the Sea Kings…but Luna too!? In the end, just what is she!?

Lucas sighed.

In any case, she is his daughter. Lucas wouldn’t let anything harm her. No matter what.

He smiled at Luna and patted her head.

“Luna, these very big fish friends of yours, don’t tell anyone else about it, okay?”

“Eh? Why?”

“Hehe, because they are very shy! That’s why, keep it a secret, okay?”

“Un!”

Though Luna didn’t really get it, since she is being patted by Lucas on her head, she just smiled and nodded.

Time passed as they continued to celebrate and have fun. At some point, Luffy started singing and dancing on top of the table along with Usopp and Chopper.

“Listen up! As the best man, I command there will be another party tomorrow!”

“…”

Lucas’ palm touched his face.

In the end, Luffy had indeed ended up as his best man. At first, he was about to ask Jinbei about it but Luffy was adamant about choosing him instead.

‘What are you saying!? I’m going to be the Pirate King! I’m obviously the Best Man!’

Those were the words he said that time. It seems he was under the impression that the Best Man means exactly what it says it is, the best man

Anyway, Lucas had simplified the wedding so it actually didn’t require a Best Man or Maid of Honor. He had only put them there as some kind of formality.

There were no speeches or even exchange of vows as both Lucas and Nami didn’t feel like needing it.

After the joyful and loud party, everyone went back to the Ryugu Palace to rest.

Robin agreed to look after Luna for the night so Lucas and Nami would be left alone.

What followed next was obvious.

Nami laid on the bed with a red face, clearly still a bit hot from drinking too much alcohol earlier.

Normally, her alcohol tolerance is quite high. Even higher than Zoro himself. It’s just that this time, she was truly happy and didn’t care about getting drunk so she drank recklessly.

Looking at the intoxicated and s.e.xy look Nami is giving him, Lucas smiled and crawled on top of her.

Their lips touched and their clothes started to come off one after another.

Holding onto her h.i.p.s, Lucas unlocked her secret chest and inserted his key!

“Ahh~!”

 

The following morning, Lucas woke up and saw Nami still sleeping beside him while covered in sheets.

Recalling how wild she was last night, Lucas can’t help but laugh when he thinks she will have trouble getting up later.

Perhaps hearing his laugh, Nami’s eyes started to open as well.

Lucas smiled.

“Good morning.”

“Nn…my head hurts”

Nami groaned and lifted her hand to hold her head while trying to sit up. As she did, she froze and lied back down.

“Nnn…my whole body hurts”

“Hahaha. Who told you to drink so much yesterday?”

“You didn’t have to be so rough last night!”

“Hey, you were the one who moved more than me!”

“…”

Nami blinked for a while and tried to remember. Suddenly, her face turned red and quickly hid inside the sheets.

“I don’t remember! It must be you!”

“…”

Lucas was speechless.

Do you even have to blame it on me!?

Sighing, Lucas kissed her forehead and smiled.

“Fine, fine. I’m sorry okay? It’s my fault.”

“…10,000 Beli.”

“…Huh?”

“You need to pay me 10,000 Beli for medical fees!”

“…”

Forget it, it was useless to argue with this money-grubber!

The days passed by quietly as everyone enjoyed their stay in Fishman Island.

Finally, Franky announced that the ship had been coated again which meant that they can leave the island to enter the New World at any time.

Hearing this, Luffy nodded and faced his crew.

“Ok! As the Best Man, I propose another party!”

“…”

Why is he still hung up on that Best Man thing?

Still, no one objected to the party as everyone wanted to have one last party as farewell.

Lucas had also said his goodbyes to the mermaids of Mermaid Cafe and to Shyarly as well.

He thought Shyarly would make things difficult for him but unexpectedly, she didn’t seem to care and simply nodded when he asked to leave.

“Lucas.”

“Hm?”

Shyarly called out to him and asked something which confused Lucas.

“If you have the chance to sit on top of the world…would you do it?”

“Huh? Why did you suddenly ask that?”

“Just curious.”

Lucas raised an eyebrow but still answered honestly. He can vaguely tell why she would suddenly ask…

“Depends. Is there someone sitting next to me?”

“No.”

“Then I probably won’t do it.”

Lucas shrugged.

He looked at Nami and Robin who was talking to the other mermaid girls in the distance and smiled.

“At the very least, even if I do get to sit on the highest throne…there will definitely be someone next to me.”

What was a King without a Queen?

At least, to Lucas, he didn’t want to be at the top all alone.

Shyarly looked at him and shook her head.

Whatever. I am tired of seeing these visions…I hope I am mistaken

She looked at the crystal ball sitting on a soft cushion and no longer hesitated.

*Shatter*

Lucas looked at the shattered crystal ball on the floor and smiled wryly. In the end, this had also happened here. But it seems that instead of the vision where Luffy supposedly burns Fishman Island, the vision Shyarly saw is instead related to him.

“Are you sure about that?”

“Whatever. I do not wish to see the future anymore when it brings nothing but pain.”

Lucas knew her burdens but didn’t know what to say so he can only pat her back in encouragement.

Usually, he would pat their heads but Shyarly is a bit larger than normal human size so it would be weird if he did that.

Shyarly felt his warm hand on her back and felt safe for some reason.

Confused with this feeling, she decided to ignore it and ignored Lucas as well.

Seeing her leave while ignoring him, Lucas scratched the back of his head and wondered if he did something that irritated her

After a while, he just shrugged and left as well.

The next day, it was finally time to leave.

Lucas and the rest stood on the deck of Sunny and looked at everyone outside waving at them.

“Jinbei! Are you sure you don’t want to come with!?”

Luffy asked once again.

“I hope to join you guys, but I still have things to do! Once I settle with my matters, I shall properly ask to join you guys!”

“Jinbei! Forget about Luffy! Join the Whitebeard Pirates!”

Ace quickly said when he saw Jinbei refuse Luffy but this only irritated Luffy instead.

“Dammit Ace! Don’t steal my crew!”

“He isn’t yours yet so it’s not stealing!”

“You wanna fight hah!?”

“Bring it!”

“…”

Seeing the two about to butt heads again, Marco knocked his fist at Ace while Nami did the same to Luffy.

“Knock it off!”

Everyone just laughed at the two who now had a bulge on their heads.

“Lucas-sama! Come visit us again someday!”

Shirahoshi waved goodbye as well with tears in her eyes.

Hearing her, Nami and Robin suddenly approached Lucas on both sides with sweet smiles but Lucas can tell that they aren’t smiling at all!

“Heeh, I forgot, you haven’t given us an explanation about this one yet, right?”

“She seems attached to you right, Lucas-sama~?”

“…”

Give me a break! I didn’t do anything to her!

“Huhu! Lunaaa! I will miss youuu!”

Kirahoshi was also waving at Luna with tears in her eyes. The two of them seemed to have become great friends this past few days as Lucas could see them playing all the time.

Luna was also crying while waving goodbye.

“Waa! I will miss you too Sister Kiraaa!”

While she cried, the sea churned violently. If not for Lucas trying to calm down the sea, Fishman Island might be no more already

It’s really dangerous to leave Luna alone

King Neptune looked at Lucas and nodded.

Lucas nodded back at him.

“Captain! The log pose is set!”

Nami had just gotten the new log pose for the New world which consisted of three compases pointing to three different directions.

It is said that the compass which shakes the most is the most dangerous island of the three. Looking at it, Luffy naturally declared to go in the direction of the middle compass which shook violently.

Everyone can only despair having such a captain…

Luffy nodded and shouted as he pointed upwards.

“Alright! To the New World!”

“Ohhhhhhh!!!”

Suddenly, they heard a scream from inside the cabins.

“Aaaaaahhhh!”

The doors slammed open and revealed Sanji who looked pale.

After the wedding a few days ago, Sanji knew that the following night would be Lucas and Nami’s union.

Even though he already knew that the two of them had done it before which resulted into Luna’s birth, actually knowing that they were doing it that day seemed to be too much for him and actually fainted.

Since then, he had been in a coma for the rest of the days after.

Only now did he finally wake up.

Seeing as the ship was already starting to float away, he ran to the side and tried to leave!

“Noooo! My Fishman Island! My ALL BLUE!!!”

Usopp and Franky stopped him from passing through the coating bubble.

“Let me go! I haven’t enjoyed my stay here yet!!!”

“That’s because you are either unconscious or bleeding.”

Zoro snorted and no longer cared for him.

Everyone else shook their heads too while Sanji can only cry but unable to refute.

“Huhuhu! My All Blue”

Then, Luffy appeared while lifting a large barrel of wine.

He placed it at the center of the deck and laughed.

“Shishishi! Everyone gather around!”

Knowing what Luffy wanted to do, Nami, Sanji, Zoro, and Usopp smiled as well and approached the barrel.

Curious, everyone gathered around as well.

Luffy grinned.

“Everyone! We have been through a lot these past 2 years…but our goal stays the same!”

He raised his leg and placed his feet on top of the barrel.

“To become the Pirate King!”

Sanji also lifted his leg and did the same.

“To find All Blue!…Even though I already found it…huhu”

Everyone ignored his little whisper at the end and pretended not to hear it.

Zoro continued.

“To be the strongest swordsman!”

Nami smiled and held Lucas’ hand and also placed her feet on the barrel.

“To draw a map of the world!”

Usopp grinned with confidence.

“To become a brave warrior of the sea!”

At this point, everyone understood what to do.

Chopper changed to his Heavy Point and did the same.

“To cure all kinds of disease!”

Franky did his signature pose while lifting his leg.

“To build a ship that can travel around the world!”

Robin chuckled and followed.

“To uncover the truth of history.”

Brook laughed.

“To reunite with Laboon!”

Kaya looked at Usopp while Hanc.o.c.k looked at Luffy. They both smiled and placed their feet on the barrel at the same time.

“”To be with the person I love!””

Usopp blushed when he heard what Kaya said but tried to act cool while Luffy didn’t show any reaction.

Everyone else had already placed their feet on the barrel except for Lucas

He was about to do so when Luna cut in between and tried to copy everyone.

Lucas smiled and lifted her up so her feet could reach the barrel.

“To become the cutest daughter!”

“Hahaha! You are already the cutest, Luna!”

Everyone laughed at Luna.

Luna pouted and changed what she said.

“To have lots of mommy!”

This time, Lucas sweated.

“L-Luna…that”

“Hahahahahahahaha!”

Everyone laughed except for Nami and Robin who was staring daggers at Lucas as if he was the one at fault.

Lucas tried to ask Luna to change it but she wouldn’t budge.

Sighing, Lucas can only raise his leg as well and place it on the barrel as he spoke his goal.

“”

Everyone stopped laughing and looked at Lucas in shock.

Suddenly, Luffy laughed.

“Shishishishi! As expected of the future Pirate King’s crew!”

No longer wasting any time, everyone lifted their feet at the same time and slammed on the barrel hard!

“TO THE NEW WORLD!!!”
