Journey to the New World

Garp's expression stiffened. In the end, he directly cursed at Haku, "You brat, are you looking for a beating?"

Tch!

Haku sneered and curled his lips. When he was first training with Garp back then, the man had directly caught a lion and declared he was going to make braised lion's head for him to taste!

The result was that he was choked by the inedible lion's head, and from then on, he lost all appetite at the sight of lion's head!

To prevent Garp from coming up with any more bizarre foods, he himself began to learn to cook based on his experience from his previous life!

Of course, due to his past life experience, Garp's palate actually became more and more discerning thanks to Haku.

Everyone ate the meal that day with great satisfaction! Of course, Chaton was the exception! Because the more he compared himself to Haku, the more he felt his hope of pursuing Momousagi was slim!

It couldn't be helped; Haku was young and handsome, and at such a young age, he possessed unmatched strength! He had even become his direct superior!

Of course, to be precise, Momousagi had indeed taken a liking to Haku!

It couldn't be helped. Momousagi had a pride that others couldn't imagine; her own strength should have reached the level of a Rear Admiral Candidate.

Among those of the same rank, she didn't need to think much about the three Admirals whose strength surpassed hers!

As for Chaton, who was also a Rear Admiral Candidate, he looked too old! As for the other Vice Admirals, she could only scoff!

Now, with Haku's appearance, whether it was his strength, background, looks, or the previous influence of the Hollow Mask on Haku, it made Momousagi unable to ignore this boy who was slightly younger than her!

The more she observed, the more she felt that besides his mouth being a bit sharp, he had almost no flaws.

In the Marines, she had met many men, but she had never encountered a man like Haku before!

After dinner, Vice Admiral Tsuru pulled Garp along, and Garp dragged Chaton with him, going out for a walk. They grandly called it "aiding digestion."

Momousagi eagerly cleaned up the kitchen. Then, she approached Haku and said, "Um... Haku, if you don't have anything else to do, shall we go for a walk together!"

Haku looked at Momousagi's blushing face and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Gion-nee, what's wrong? You seem a little off today?"

Momousagi was taken aback by Haku's question and couldn't help but think, How can this kid not see it? Does he have no feelings for me at all?

She immediately shook her head and dismissed the thought. Then she said, "It's nothing, I just feel you've been growing very fast lately. I want to chat with you about your future plans!"

Perhaps it was due to spending too much time with people from the Monkey family, but Haku had become slow to react to things like emotions.

Haku replied with a calm expression, "Actually, I don't have any specific plans. Due to the World Government, I have to take up a post at the G5 branch in a few days."

"Doesn't that mean you're going to the New World?" Momousagi didn't know about this yet, so she was somewhat surprised by Haku's answer.

Haku smiled and said, "That's right! The New World, just thinking about it makes me a little excited!"

Momousagi, however, said with a hint of seriousness, "That's the Four Emperors' territory after all. You might be targeted there!"

Hearing Momousagi's concern, Haku smiled slightly and confidently said, "Don't worry. I have my own strength and plans, and I won't easily fall into danger. Moreover, I believe there will be many interesting things waiting for me in the New World."

Momousagi looked at Haku's determined eyes and couldn't help but admire his courage and resolve.

She knew Haku was a capable and wise person. Thinking back to the scene of Haku fighting Akainu that day, she felt that perhaps the ones who should be worried were the pirates who encountered Haku!

Moreover, since she first met Haku, he hadn't shown his true strength at all!

The night passed without incident. Haku spent his days at Marine Headquarters very happily.

During these few days, Momousagi would always find excuses to spend time with Haku.

Even if Haku was dense, he noticed Momousagi's attitude towards him.

The current state between them was a bit beyond friendship but not yet lovers.

Unfortunately, Haku still had to leave Marine Headquarters. Therefore, this nascent relationship could at most be marked with a question mark.

At this moment, above the Red Line, he was piloting his ark towards the latter half of the Grand Line, the New World!

There were quite a few Marines on his ark; these were people Haku had requested from Sengoku.

Most of them were veteran Marines!

As for why he brought so many people, Haku knew the situation at G5.

Marine Branch GL-5 was an organization located in the New World. Two years ago, along with Marine Branch G-1, it was one of the few Marine branches in the New World.

G-5 was an unusual Marine unit; its Marines were more like pirates than Marines. They didn't follow orders from Marine Headquarters and had terrible behavior, even slaughtering pirates.

Of course, Haku didn't mind slaughtering pirates. He didn't have a good impression of pirates who committed all sorts of evil deeds anyway!

However, Haku knew that he needed these veteran Marines to help him rectify the order of the G5 branch.

After all, he wanted an orderly Marine base, not a group of sloppy, undisciplined soldier thugs!!!

Of course, the birth of these soldier thugs was definitely related to the former base commander, Vergo.

It was his indulgence of the Marines under him running wild that caused the G5 base to become what it is today!

If that person were still in G5, Haku would truly draw his sword and kill him.

Perhaps it was because he had been thinking about it too much. The moment Haku entered the New World, he happened to encounter G5 Marines who were chasing a pirate ship!

Because the distance between the two sides was too great, the people on the other side didn't see Haku's conspicuous flying ship in the sky!

Haku, on the other hand, used Observation Haki to observe the G5 Marines who were about to corner the pirate ship near an island.

"Interesting! I didn't expect these G5 Marines to look so fierce!" Haku muttered.

Immediately, he controlled his ship and headed towards the island.

Not long after, Haku arrived on the island and saw the group of G5 Marines slaughtering the pirates.

However! That wasn't the problem. It was the actions of some of the Marines that greatly angered Haku after he watched them!
