Thousand Sunny

The King of Beasts (百獣の王, Hyakujuu no Ou) is a Brigantine Sloop type ship that now acts as the second main mode of transportation of the Straw Hat Pirates after the Going Merry was lost. It was designed and built by Franky with a little help from Iceburg, Paulie, Peepley Lulu, and Tilestone. Built from Adam Wood, it is a magnificent ship that is at least double the size of the Going Merry and apparently contains most of the requests the Straw Hats wanted.

Ship Design and Appearance
The King of Beasts is a Brigantine Sloop, which relies on the skills of it's navigator. The ship also has a lawn on it's deck, as well as an observation tower for a crow's nest. The masts are huge, and help make the ship extremely manuverable. The head-piece, like on the Merry is an animal's head, only this time a lion (although the face looks more like a bear's) with its mane in the shape of a flower's petals. There is a giant "1" on the side of the ship.

Features
The King of Beasts features many additions which the crew have long awaited for, and some nice additions Franky added himself.

The Deck and Upper Ship
The deck has a lawn on it, perfect for gardening, and will likely be the place of Nami's mikan trees, although other plants are not out of the question. Luffy will probably enjoy rolling around in it. Whether there being a lawn or gardens on the deck will have any effect on battles on the ship is unknown.

Kitchen
The kitchen is likely to be increased in size and quality of equipment. All that is known is that Sanji got the perfect lock he's always wanted for the fridge, and that there is a huge oven.

Observation Tower(Crow's Nest)
The crew no longer needs to sit out in the cold or the heat of the Grand Line. An observation tower can be seen at the top of one of the masts where normally a crow's nest would be. It is in a ball shape and has windows on the sides.

Below Deck
A number of additions likely below deck, but so far none have been seen.

Aquarium
Great for keeping fish so they stay perfectly fresh once caught, Franky says it's a good place to eat dinner.

Soldier Dock System
No one is really sure what it is, except Franky, who claims to have invented it. Use and design is unknown, but may become more important in the future.

Voyage
The ship will likely go many places, as its journey is just beginning.
