If your entire itinerary looks like this:

UK - Shanghai - Japan
Japan - Shanghai - UK

If the answer is yes, then you are definitely and undeniably eligible for 144 hour visa free transit both ways. If your transit time in Shanghai is shorter than 24 hours, then you will be covered by 24 hour visa free transit. In any case, being it 24 or 144 hour visa free transit, you do not need any kind of visa. You are advised to print out your flight and cruise tickets and have those printouts at hand in order to make all the formalities easier.

Also, it is important to note, that your flights to and from Shanghai are not allowed to have any additional landing within mainland China of any kind.
