With the concerted efforts of everyone, the Golden Merry, which was only 85 tons empty and only a little more than 100 tons when fully loaded, was dragged ashore without much effort, Wu Liang and his followers stayed in place to clear the bottom of the ship first, and attached barnacles and maggots during the voyage, and then began to repair and strengthen the key parts of the ship, while Luffy and the others went to visit the strange old man who was not accepted by the townspeople according to the information obtained by Robin, Strive to get some more information about upwelling currents or a little more explosive Sky Island.

It didn't take long for Wu Liang, Poison Island, and Menqi to work together to scrape down the barnacles, maggots, and imprinthead fish that parasitized the bottom of the ship into barnacles, maggots, and imprinthead fish, which were easy to damage the ship and would slow down the ship, and piled them into a pile, carrying hammers, planks, and nails to replace and repair minor defects to get the bottom of the ship, Luffy, who went to inquire for information, returned with an ape and an orangutan, and two salvage ships appeared on the sea not far away, and a large number of extremely self-familiar salvage crew members rushed over to help.

Although it is a good thing that someone helps repair the ship, but to be honest, Wu Liang really doesn't trust these guys who are good at dismantling ships and fishing for boats on the bottom of the sea, in order to avoid these guys doing bad things with good intentions and not dissipating people's enthusiasm for help, he had to find a few buckets of paint and some brushes for them to help paint on the bottom of the ship that Wu Liang repaired himself, so as to slow down the deposition time of the ship's bottom attachments and extend the service life as much as possible.

Since the ship has entered the state of overhaul and maintenance, then it is not as usual to continue to make a fire on it to cook, after all, the paint and some other things that have just been brushed are flammable materials that come into contact with sparks, and the ship likes to smoke, play with fire, and destroy it is not one or two, if one accidentally causes a fire, then the fun will be great, and don't be in a hurry to find any updraft, what empty island, first go and grab a suitable boat back first!

In order to avoid this kind of unwanted situation, Wu Liang, who was busy with his work, asked Peng Si and Alice, who could not help much, to take a vote of minions from the Anthropo Pirates, and set up two large tents that could accommodate twelve people on the side of the woods as camps, and covered the top with a large tarp, brought a few large logs to build a field stove to solve the problem of eating, and temporarily found a suitable place to place Luffy and his party, so as not to let those guys with excess energy come over to make trouble.

After staying on the ship for a long time, going back to land camping becomes very attractive, Luffy and Chopper soon forgot about making trouble, rushed into the woods not far away and began to catch unicorns and catalpa, Nami and Robbie returned to the tent for girls to study the logbook that had just arrived, Usopp, who was worried about the situation of the Merry, rarely went to help Wu Liang to start, and Sanji walked into the field stove very consciously, using the ingredients stored on the ship and the barnacles that had just been scraped off the bottom of the ship. I started preparing my first dinner since landing on Gaya Island.

Of course, the amount of dinner should be at least twice as large as before, and the dishes should be as rich as possible, after all, the Orangutan Pirates and the Ape Pirates are here to help, even if it is out of basic etiquette, you should do a good celebration.

By the time Wu Liang led people to work until the third pole of the moon, the hull strengthening work had just been completed less than one-fifth, due to the limited lighting conditions and the start of drumming in the stomach, the repair work had to be temporarily over, and Wu Liang, who sat back on the edge of the campfire, sat on the edge of the campfire and tasted a large piece of barbecue meat and seafood soup, and finally had time to listen to Luffy what kind of information they had gotten, and he was also a little concerned about Nami and Robin, who had not come out of the tent for half a day since they came back, I don't know if the two of them have found one that can provide them with some data for the hull reinforcement as a reference.

"Roar! As far as we know, the occurrence of the strange sea state of the upwelling current may be inseparable from the submarine volcanic activity, and the dense occurrence range is roughly concentrated near an offshore coast due south of the bay of Gaya Island, and the frequency of occurrence is about five times a month, each time lasting about one minute, that is to say, there will be a one-minute updraft every five days, and the key point to reach the sky island safely is whether you can ride this current smoothly! Just a few minutes after Wu Liang took his seat, Nami and Robin also walked out of the tent with a large wooden board with all kinds of information written on it, and immediately grabbed the dinner plate from Luffy and Sanji in front of the campfire.

"Something to do with volcanic activity? Volcanic eruptions can't be so regular, so it is a special siphon effect formed by the eruption of water vapor or combustible gas on the seabed, which can cause such a long-lasting eruption, and the water flow can go straight to the sky. Trying to forcibly explain the upwelling current, a natural phenomenon that cannot be explained in the world of pirates (it is likely to be man-made), in his own mind, Wu Liang took a small branch and began to calculate it in front of him, if you want to ensure that the hull will withstand such an impact and not disintegrate, the preparation you need to make is not a little bit of a star, and if you want to complete the hull strengthening in two and a half days, it is not possible to plan in advance, at least you have to leave enough redundancy to be safe.

Watching Wu Liang write a string of complex calculations and various letters that he had never seen before, even Luffy, who had always loved to babble, was a little unconscious, and it was rare that he didn't come to disturb, and even the sound of eating was much lowered, and only Poison Island, Nami and Robin could be seen from the calculations, and even Sakura couldn't understand it at all because he didn't have a solid foundation in school before.

In fact, if you want to go to the empty island, in addition to the Mahayana rising current, Wu Liang has a more convenient way---- take a plane and fly up directly!

It's just that flying to the sky island requires a 2,500-meter-long flight runway, and it's a bit risky, because it can't find a landing site, and the business plane that has been dusted in the storage space for several worlds will be turned into a one-time big toy, and it is more likely that it will fall directly through the clouds because the impact force is too great when landing.

Considering that safety is the first priority, and it is better not to do more than not waste the principle of not wasting it, and obediently find a way to strengthen the hull!
