"Garp?"
Gawain was stunned. He looked at the people around him and asked with emotion.
"He actually came to my ship. How strange, he actually agreed to see me?"
"You don't need to be so surprised. It should be an honor for Garp to meet you!"
Hancock said proudly to Gawain.
Upon hearing this, Gawain chuckled and ruffled Hancock's hair.
"Stop joking, Hancock. There are always some special cases."
Marine hero, Iron Fist Garp, is someone even the Five Elders can't handle.
Basically, he represents an era of the navy...
At this point, Gawain nodded slightly to the Whitebeard.
"Now that Garp is here, we should definitely see him. Newgate, let's go together!"
"Of course, guralala, it's been far too long since I've seen that old fellow!"
It's really interesting to occasionally leave the New World. Whether it's a future worth looking forward to or a past worth reminiscing about, I've seen it all!
"Gurarara!!!"
Meanwhile, on the side, Garp's warship slowly docked next to the Dark Bird Ship.
On the warship, the marines looked up in awe at the enormous Dark Bird Ship, which resembled a mountain range!
"So this is Saint Gawain's flagship? It's truly..."
"It's absolutely enormous, isn't it? Haha, those guys are so extravagant! The money used to build these ships comes from the hard-earned money of everyone in the world!"
Garp interrupted the marines' shocked words, then waved his hand.
"You should all stay on the ship. Rayleigh and Whitebeard are on board. If anything happens, it will be difficult for me to protect you!"
Kuzan, Borsalino, let's go up!
As soon as he finished speaking, Garp didn't wait for the elevator. He suddenly jumped vertically and rushed directly onto the deck of the Dark Bird Ship.
Behind him, Aokiji and Kizaru exchanged a helpless glance before following Garp's footsteps.
At this point, the three of them were completely in front of Rayleigh and his companions.
With his foot firmly planted on the deck, Garp's old eyes were fixed on Rayleigh's, and an invisible aura emanated from the old man.
Rayleigh, though still smiling, had unknowingly tightened Rayleigh grip on his sword hilt!
Seeing the two of them suddenly turn into this, Kuzan quickly and speechlessly grabbed the old man and dragged him aside.
Gion quickly patted Rayleigh on the shoulder.
"Grandpa Rayleigh, calm down. You didn't call me and Yixiao over here just to break up your fight, did you?"
"Well..."
Upon hearing this, Rayleigh rubbed his head and burst into laughter.
"Haha, alright, alright, I'm afraid I've gotten into a habit and forgotten that this isn't Roger's ship anymore!"
Well then, Garp, welcome to visit our Dark Bird Ship!
But this time, haha, you wouldn't still want to threaten me with death, would you?
"Hahaha, things are different now, times have really changed!"
For a moment, I felt young again, as if I had traveled back decades!
"After all, it was only then that I could occasionally see your forced, smiling face, you old man!"
At this point, Garp burst into laughter and lunged at Rayleigh, throwing a punch at Rayleigh as he laughed.
Rayleigh, his face also filled with emotion, extended his fist, bringing it close to Garp's fist as Rayleigh spoke.
"Yeah, decades have passed in the blink of an eye. I've never really had a chance to practice my sword skills with you. You're getting more and more outrageous!"
Boom!!!
With a powerful punch, Rayleigh slammed his fist right into Garp's face!
Suddenly punched, Garp, completely bewildered, withdrew his fist, which he had used to commemorate their friendship.
"What the hell, Rayleigh? Do you want to fight?!"
"Hehe, what am I up to? You'll have to ask you, you bastard, what you're up to first!"
Don't you want to give me an explanation for what happened with Ace?!
Rayleigh's face darkened as he glared fiercely at Garp. Garp froze, listening to Rayleigh's indignant words.
"Huh? What Ace? Why are you asking about my Sun Tzu?"
"Damn it, you shameless old man, haha!"
This is the first time I've ever seen someone as shameless as you! How can we call ourselves friends?!
Rayleigh gripped his sword, staring intently at Garp's face, which was etched with an unspeakable embarrassment.
Faced with Rayleigh's piercing gaze, Garp looked left, then right...
The next moment, Garp tilted his head back, and he actually fell asleep as if he had stopped breathing, his neck twisted.
There was even a comical giant snot bubble floating on his sleeping face?!
Seeing Garp's behavior, Rayleigh took a deep breath, then picked up his Cane Sword and smashed it directly onto Garp's head with the scabbard.
"Don't try to change the subject with jokes like 'falling asleep instantly,' old man! Where's your explanation?! Where's your explanation?!"
Thump!
Garp's brow was twisted from the blow, and he slowly regained consciousness, swaying slightly. He looked around, and then, when he looked at Rayleigh again...
Garp chuckled and waved his hand.
"Hehehe, isn't this Rayleigh? Long time no see!"
Hey, you're not a pirate anymore?
"Alright, then I won't bother arresting you. I'm going back to headquarters to eat some donuts!"
After saying that, Garp immediately turned to leave.
Beside Garp, Kuzan once again helplessly grabbed Garp's arm.
"Mr. Garp, stop fooling around! Saint Gawain and Whitebeard are already walking this way!"
"Huh? Really? Why have I suddenly become so blind and can't see West City clearly?"
Hey, Kuzan, you keep an eye on them for me.
I urgently need to urinate, I need to go back to Marineford take care of it!
"Mr. Garp!!!"
Faced with Garp like this, Aokiji was completely helpless. He could only try his best to hold Garp back while giving Rayleigh and the others a helpless look.
And Rayleigh...
He rubbed his forehead vigorously.
Although I knew Garp had this kind of reckless personality, even after not seeing him for many years, I was still quite annoyed to see him again!
Suppressing his displeasure, Rayleigh let out a snort of annoyance.
"Stop acting like that, forget it, it's all in the past, it doesn't matter anymore!"
As for now, hurry up and act normal, then have a few drinks with this old man!
"Drink wine?"
Garp's expression changed, and he turned back with interest.
"If you're talking about that, I'm no longer sleepy. I brought rice crackers; do you have onion rings?"
"Yes, come with me, let's go to the rest area!"
Rayleigh waved to Garp, and the two old men simply ignored everyone else and walked towards the rest area on their own.
Looking at Rayleigh and Garp, one tall and one short, but both with gray hair, from behind.
Aokiji, Kizaru, and Gion all let out a sigh of relief.
After rolling her Byakugan a few times, Gion nodded to Aokiji and the other girl.
"Long time no see, Admiral Kuzan and Admiral Borsalino."
This is Yixiao, my companion.
Garp and Rayleigh are just so unreliable, sigh...
In short, please come with us, sir. The master and Whitebeard have returned.
As they spoke, Gion gestured slightly to Aokiji and the other person. Seeing Gion's gesture, Aokiji nodded gently.
As they followed Gion into the distance, Aokiji murmured to himself.
"We're already comrades, Gion Vice Admiral?"
"Yes, we're comrades now, Admiral Kuzan."
Gion replied without turning her head.
In the distance, at the rest area, Gawain and Whitebeard, one on each side, led the group straight towards Rayleigh and Garp.
As they drew closer, Gawain slowed his pace slightly and made way for the Whitebeard.
Behind Whitebeard, his sons were about to follow when Gawain suddenly reached out and blocked Marco and his group's path.
Then, he smiled at Marco.
"Let's just stay here for a while and let your Pops catch up with his old friends from his generation!"
After saying that, Gawain found a sofa and sat down. Before sitting down, he waved to the group from Gion.
Seeing Gawain's actions, Gion nodded knowingly. Then she immediately accelerated, flashing several times before stopping beside Gawain.
Aokiji, Kizaru, and Issho naturally followed Gion. In the blink of an eye, they passed Rayleigh and Garp and arrived in front of Gawain.
Gawain waved to them.
"Come on, let's young people find a place to sit. Lucci, tell the kitchen to prepare some new food and drinks for everyone."
As for the three of them..."
Gawain turned around and looked at Garp and his group from afar.
After reading it, he said with a smile.
"Even before we existed in this world, those three old guys had already begun their feud and grudges."
So let's give them an environment to savor the experience.
"I smiled and said, 'Kalifa just told me that he gave you the badge, and you accepted it. Is that true?'"
"Why?"
Ronin smiled, slightly taken aback, then pursed his lips.
"Saint Gawain, that badge is indeed in my pocket!"
"Haha, it's just in my pocket, that's fine."
Anyway, let's have a good drink and listen to some music together first.
We'll talk again tonight.
After giving a slight nod to Yixiao, Gawain waved to Aokiji and Kizaru.
"You two, find your own places to sit. Do I have to personally arrange it for you?"
"Yes, Saint Gawain!"
Aokiji nodded seriously.
And Kizaru...
He glanced at his watch, then smiled with satisfaction.
"May I sit down? Saint Gawain, for letting me leave work early. That's wonderful..."
While making jokes, Kizaru sat down next to Aokiji.
In the distance, Whitebeard immediately realized that no one was behind him.
However, just a moment later, Whitebeard heard Gawain's words and understood what Gawain meant.
So he quickened his pace slightly and shouted to Garp and Rayleigh from a distance.
"Hey, you old folks, what kind of devil's holiday is it today?"
Otherwise, how would we old bones still have the chance to sit together, gurgle gurgle!!!
"You're right, Newgate!"
This must be the devil's holiday! I've wasted my whole life and still haven't been able to send you two to Impel Down!
The devil has been too kind to you, ha ha ha!
Garp laughed and patted Rayleigh on the shoulder, his words causing Rayleigh to distance himself from him in disgust.
On the other side, Whitebeard laughed loudly after hearing Garp's words.
"Gurarara, wasn't it enough that you and Sengoku sent Shiki to Impel Down?"
"What, do you really want us to keep shattering the myth of Impel Down a few more times?"
"Haha, that's right. Even if guys like you went to jail, which prison could hold you?"
Garp rubbed his short hair as he extended his right Whitebeard.
"Come on, Newgate, let this old man see how you've changed over the years!"
"Gurarara, I can't wait! This old man also wants to see if that marine from back then has become a veteran now!!!"
As he spoke, Whitebeard swung a punch straight at Garp.
Garp, facing Whitebeard's fist, slightly gathered his strength before suddenly throwing a punch.
The next moment, a gust of north wind swept through, and the surging shockwave pushed all kinds of facilities in the vicinity backwards!
Their two fists, one large and one small, clashed repeatedly in mid-air, and beneath their feet, the deck made by Treasure Tree Adam tore apart instantly!
In the distance, Gawain, carrying a glass of wine, felt a sudden gust of wind, and the red wine in his glass flew out and spilled directly onto Hancock's chest...
At the same time, the food and drinks placed around the table were blown off the table by the hurricane...
Looking at the empty cup in his hand, Gawain let out a long sigh.
"Rayleigh wasn't lying to me after all; these old guys all greet each other with a fight!"
As Gawain spoke, Whitebeard and Garp instantly became two afterimages, unleashing a barrage of Conqueror's Haki and countless Armament Haki attacks. Fortunately, after only three to five seconds and dozens of punches, they stopped completely.
Standing on the deck, Garp grinned.
"You really have gotten old, Whitebeard. At your age, without using your Devil Fruit powers, you're far from being as good as you used to be!"
"Gurararara, don't be stubborn, Garp. You're an old man too, we're even!"
At this point, Whitebeard stretched out his large hand, and his fist collided slightly with Garp's.
After exchanging blows, Whitebeard stood in front of Garp and sighed with emotion.
"Now that today is over, I can say that my life has not been in vain!"
In the first half of my life, I was fortunate enough to get to know you old devils and even fight with you fiercely for half my life.
In the latter half of my life, I witnessed the future of the world and was able to meet you old ghosts from back then again!
Gulala, what kind of life could be as perfect as this? My life is indeed something many people envy!
Come on, come on! Gawain is throwing a banquet today, we must drink to our hearts' content!
After today, who knows how many years it will be before we meet again.
And by then, we probably won't even have a proper chat anymore!
"Yeah, haha!"
Hearing Whitebeard's words, Garp laughed heartily.
"After today, we'll be enemies again, and I won't show the same mercy as I did today!"
"Gurararara, did I not show any mercy? I haven't even used my Devil Fruit power yet!"
"And what about me? You think those soft, weak fists are even half of my strength? Haha!"
Garp, not to be outdone, raised his fist.
"You know, even if you threw that old Chinjao in front of me right now, I could still flatten his cone-shaped head with one punch!"
"Shameless old man!"
Rayleigh suddenly interrupted Garp.
"You should watch your mouth. Ever since you flattened that cone-shaped head of his, that old guy Chinjao has been crying every day."
After all, all his treasures were hidden in his vault, and the key to that vault was the cone he had before you flattened him!
The cone tip is flattened, so he can never get his treasure out again, haha!
It's bad enough to have money but no way to spend it, but you also keep dragging that guy out of the wood and whipping his corpse...
If I were Chinjao, I'd bring the entire Happo Navy to fight you to the death!
As soon as Rayleigh finished speaking, the three old men looked at each other.
Immediately afterwards, the three of them hugged their stomachs and burst into laughter.
Their laughter was exceptionally unrestrained and incredibly bold; for a moment, their voices echoed throughout the entire Dark Bird Ship.
And Gawain's direction.
Hearing the laughter of Whitebeard and his two companions, Marco took a deep breath.
This is my own Pops. Even though we were once mortal enemies, when we reunite in our old age, I can't recall any hatred. What remains is pure friendship!
Thinking about this, whether it's Marco or the Whitebeard Pirates...
They were much less wary of Gawain and his group, as well as Aokiji.
This is the ocean!
Even though they always have to determine a winner and a loser, and even life and death.
But whether alive or dead, how many of them could not be called heroes and great men?
The group has been disbanded, which has affected my writing. I barely managed to finish writing this late tonight. I'm such a chatterbox, and I tend to overthink things. I'm also quite stubborn in my words and actions. I apologize to everyone for any mistakes I made.
Sorry.
