"Why?!!

Hey hey hey???

Stop hitting him! Stop hitting him! Stop hitting him in the head!!!

Seeing that Dadan wasn't satisfied with just one punch, and continued to throw four or five more without showing any sign of stopping, Sabo was feeling quite warm and fuzzy inside, finally lost his temper.

He quickly tried to dodge Dadan's hand.

Even if you're going to get punched, you can't hit your head, can't you hit your back?

My head hurts so much...

In no time, Sabo and Dadan were in complete chaos. Dadan chased Sabo and beat him for more than three minutes before finally sitting down on the ground, clutching her waist.

While patting her aching lower back, Dadan took a heavy breath.

"You little rascal, you're much more slippery than you were back then, which puts my mind at ease!"

Although you have a few scars on your face, scars are a man's badge of honor. Seeing how energetic you are now, I'm quite satisfied.

But..."

At this point, Dadan narrowed her eyes and then asked Sabo in a cold voice.

"But I've always wondered, you bastard, are you still the same snotty-nosed brat you used to be?"

Where have you been all these years? Did you become a pirate on the high seas?

And he's the most irresponsible kind of pirate, not even willing to send a single message back to his family!!!

As soon as she finished speaking, Dadan clutched her waist and stood up again, then walked step by step toward Sabo.

Her towering 2.5-meter frame cast a large shadow, completely obscuring Sabo.

Seeing the powerful and energetic Dadan, Sabo, whose head was slightly swollen... broke out in a cold sweat!

He waved his hand as he backed away, emphasizing this as he retreated.

"Dadan, calm down! Violence won't solve anything!"

I had a really difficult reason to explain before!

I will explain to you later. I really haven't abandoned you. If possible, I would rather go back to you and tell you that I am safe and sound.

I..."

"Why???"

Suddenly, Village Chief Woop Slap interrupted Sabo, saying with a hint of surprise and disappointment.

You mean... if it were possible!

So, it means you had absolutely no chance of contacting us all those years ago?!

You little brat, you're not really going to become a pirate, are you? If so, I'll be so disappointed!

But now that you're on Saint Gawain's ship, does that mean you haven't gone down the wrong path yet?

"No!!!"

Faced with the village chief Woop Slap's question, Sabo quickly shook his head and said...

"At first, I did want to be a pirate. When I first set sail, I really envied the freedom of pirates!"

But... it must have been fate. After being bombarded by the Celestial Dragon with cannons, I lost my memory and joined the Revolutionary Army!

"I'm now the Revolutionary Army's reserve chief of staff, so there's absolutely no way I could be a pirate, village chief!!!"

As he finished speaking, Sabo looked at the village chief with a firm yet proud expression.

He genuinely felt that being a member of the Revolutionary Army was a source of pride.

As for the village chief...

Hearing Sabo's words, he nodded in satisfaction and continued.

"That's good, at least I didn't become a pirate!"

I practically watched you three kids grow up. Back then, it really broke my heart to see you all talking about becoming pirates!

They were all good kids, why did they become thieves?

Now that you've joined the Revolutionary Army, and Ace has joined the Dark Bird Ship, things are... huh?

Etc!!!"

Only now did the village chief realize what outrageous things Sabo had just said!

Revolutionary Army?

Revolutionary Army!!!

That's the world's largest terrorist organization!!!

The old man thought that Sabo had only committed a minor offense at most, and that once he turned over a new leaf, he would still be a good boy!

As a result, he actually infiltrated a terrorist organization!

Or is he some kind of prospective chief of staff???

So you've turned a thief into the right-hand man for turning off the lights?!

You speak of it with such pride, as if this identity is incredibly prestigious and brings great honor to your ancestors?!

In an instant, Woop Slap's blood pressure spiked. He clutched his chest and pointed tremblingly at Sabo.

Just as he was about to say something about Sabo's identity, he suddenly thought of something even more terrifying!

That is, Sabo is currently on the Celestial Dragon's ship!

He then brazenly admitted to being a member of the Revolutionary Army.

What...?

This is a self-destruction, it must be a self-destruction...

Bang!!!

Grandpa Woop Slap was completely stunned. He slammed his hand on the ground with a crisp, clean sound.

Seeing this, Sabo's face turned green. He ignored Dadan and quickly carried the old man to Chopper, Crocus, and Kureha.

While Sabo was treating and saving lives, Dadan behind him actually laughed.

Dadan said casually.

"Haha, so you didn't become a pirate, but instead ended up working for Dragon?"

And he even lost his memory?

How amusing! You little brats, it seems you can't escape your fate of getting entangled with Garp no matter what you do!

After all that, even with amnesia, he managed to end up by Garp's son's side, hahaha!!!

Having said that, Dadan stopped worrying about Ace and returned to Gawain's vicinity.

After sitting down casually, she picked up a wine jug and spoke magnanimously to Gawain.

"Gawain... Saint... Lord...?"

Screw it! You're so handsome, and you think so highly of me, so at least tonight, I'm going to treat you like a friend!

In short, Gawain!

Since Sabo dared to reveal his Revolutionary Army identity to you, and you didn't react in any special way.

It seems you really consider Sabo one of your own!

For this reason alone, I have to give you my respect. Such a magnanimous Celestial Dragon, I've truly learned something new!!!

Before Gawain could reply, Dadan had already downed a large jug of wine.

When she put down the wine jug, Gawain was also carrying an empty wine glass. When Gawain showing her the empty glass, Dadan frowned and patted her chest in dissatisfaction.

"Hey, I was just praising you for your generosity, and this is what you drink?"

Even Makino and I, two petite women, were drinking from flasks the size of earthenware pots, and you're only using a cup???

"Gawain, do you want to be called a 'little girl' by us women?"

"Ha???"

Gawain was truly taken aback by Dadan; he hadn't encountered anyone playing such a joke on him in a long time!

However, haha, when Dadan said these things, it didn't make people angry at all; on the contrary, it made the atmosphere even more lively.

The people around them started to cheer, so Zoro simply replaced his wine cup with a wine jug of the same size!

Jinbe, who wasn't afraid of causing trouble, even handed the sake flask to Gawain!

Seeing that he had already switched to holding a wine jug, what could Gawain say? He deftly picked up the wine jug and laughed.

"Haha, I was just being stubborn. Drinking is definitely more enjoyable when it's served in a bigger container!"

Come on, I've switched to a wine jug, everyone come with me!

Girls can be casual, but men shouldn't let themselves be outdone by girls!

Rayleigh, Zephyr, everyone switch to your flasks! Tonight we're drinking until we drop, hahaha!!!

At this point, Dadan and Gawain completely ignited the atmosphere of the banquet, drinking one pot of wine after another, and everyone was drunk in no time.

And just as Gawain became completely drunk, he happened to see...

Luffy, Ace, and Sabo, those three brats, are over there crying their eyes out while hugging a sake jug...

Even though they were crying, Gawain's Observation Haki detected unparalleled joy in them.

This... this slight ability to perceive life's emotions...?

Gawain was stunned, then laughed, and then he didn't care anymore.

Since even a rare moment of relaxation could cause his Observation Haki to slightly surpass the threshold of the simple Mantra.

Why not seize this opportunity, tonight, and live a carefree life without having to worry about the future?!

Behind the Foosha Village, the smell of bonfires and alcohol lingered for kilometers.

At the original site of the Foosha Village, screams and flames continued throughout the entire night.

The next morning, Gawain rubbed his hangover-induced headache and got out of bed.

The moment he stood up, Hancock seemed to sense something, so she gently rolled over.

Noticing Hancock's action, Gawain reached out and rubbed Hancock's face.

This face is very well-maintained, or rather, it's naturally beautiful enough that it doesn't get oily even after a hangover.

Just as Gawain was rubbing Hancock's cheeks, a slightly puzzled voice suddenly sounded beside Hancock.

Although the sound was faint, it made Gawain's arm jerk violently. He quickly looked at the bed and saw that there was another person lying on the other side of Hancock's bed!

And what's more, this person's hand was actually inside Hancock's bra!!!

As she uttered her question, her hand seemed to twitch involuntarily, causing Hancock to let out a soft sob as well!

The person seemed to be awakened by Hancock's voice. She opened her eyes in confusion and instinctively said something in a daze.

"Snake Princess, that's so mean! Your rabbit is pressing on my hand!"

"It's you who's being unreasonable, you rabbit!"

Even while still asleep, Hancock instinctively retorted, but as soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly realized that something was wrong!

Who did I sleep with last night?

Gawain!

Who do you usually sleep with?

Momousagi!

So, I slept with Gawain last night, but Momousagi was lying in my bed???

Hancock suddenly opened her eyes, then stretched out her long legs and did a powerful Merfolk somersault!

Startled by Hancock's actions, Gion was taken aback and quickly withdrew her hand, instinctively getting up to complain about Snake Princess a few more times.

And at that very moment...

With her knees together and her long, fleshy legs crossed on the bed, Gion's Gion, with her waist curves languidly stretched out, came into full view of Gawain.

At the same time, seemingly realizing the current situation, Gion's face, which had been expressionless, gradually turned red.

She pursed her lips and looked at Gawain, then looked down at herself, who was completely naked...

She took a deep breath with concern, then casually grabbed the blanket and gently covered herself under her shoulder blades.

Because of the sufficient resistance, the blanket did not slip off easily, Gion took this opportunity to calmly nod to Gawain.

Given Gion's personality, all she could do in such a situation was try to remain calm.

But her calm expression lasted less than two seconds before Gawain's next move completely shattered her defenses.

Because Gawain grabbed the blanket and threw the thin blanket aside.

"This...? My lord~."

Gion's body trembled, her legs tightened slightly, and her toes curled involuntarily.

As for Gawain, he took a deep breath and then pulled Gion's arm.

After pulling Gion to lie sideways in his arms, the older sister, who was clearly taller than him, changed from her alluring demeanor to a shy one...

Beside her, watching Gion trembling uncontrollably, Hancock first gritted her teeth in annoyance, then disdainfully slapped Gion's leg.

"Hmph, I thought you'd be more mature, you old woman!"

I never imagined that you, whom I always thought was an old woman, would actually be a virgin...?!

"Do you want to die?!"

Before Hancock could finish speaking, Gion had no more strength left to be shy. She simply lifted her leg and shoved her toes into Hancock's mouth!

Hancock's eyes widened as she considered many possible things that might end up in her mouth.

But she really couldn't believe it—how could it be a toe, especially a dead rabbit's toe?!

And so, Gawain could no longer have Hancock and Gion embracing each other, because Hancock and Gion were already engaged in battle on the bed...

As they fought, they quickly put on their clothes. Gion used her legs to parry Hancock's attacks, and even managed to get her hair done!

Hancock, with her hair left natural, was then repeatedly struck, knocking Gawain out of the room...

On the deck of the Dark Bird Ship, Lucci sat at the edge of the forest, coldly looking at the nobles kneeling before him.

After a night of kneeling and worship, nearly two hundred nobles have fainted.

Looking at those people, Lucci waved his hand, Kaku immediately sent someone to splash water on them to wake them up.

While those people were being woken up by the splashing, Ace and Sabo stood beside Lucci, talking Lucci him incessantly.

"Hey, Uncle Lucci, give me an answer, is it going to work or not!" That's Ace.

After Ace spoke, Sabo continued.

"Yes, yes, Uncle Lucci, I just want to bring the people from Foosha Village onto the ship to see what happens to these nobles, okay? It's no big deal, Uncle Gawain will definitely agree!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Sabo pointed to a tree in the distance, where a person was hanging from it, swaying constantly in the sea breeze.

As he swayed, the man let out exhausted pleas for mercy.

"Pointing at that guy, "Sabo said angrily.

"If Uncle Gawain were here, he would never be so heartless!"

That's Stelly, the bastard who displaced Foosha Village. After what he did to Foosha Village, shouldn't I show the villagers what they got for it?

Uncle Lucci, you're being too serious!

"Yeah, Uncle Lucci, you're too serious!!!"

Ace also pleaded for Sabo on his behalf...

Faced with their requests, Lucci remained silent for a very long time.

Hearing the constant calls of "Uncle, Uncle" around him, the usually silent Rob Lucci finally couldn't hold back any longer!

He frowned and glanced at his own tall, imposing figure.

Then he said in a cold voice.

"I'm only twenty-five!"

"Why?"

"Well..."

Upon hearing this, Sabo and Ace were both stunned with excitement. Fortunately, Sabo was quick-witted and only hesitated for a moment before changing his tune.

"Brother Lucci, don't be so heartless. Uncle Gawain got drunk last night and went into the room with Sister Gion and Sister Hancock. Heaven knows how long it will take him to wake up!"

The villagers have been eagerly anticipating the nobles' tragic fate; let's make an exception for them!

"Yes, yes, Brother Lucci!"

Ace finally realized what was happening.

"Or, we could hire a few people to show everyone how efficient we are. People will then have more faith in us. We're going to take over the Goa Kingdom next, and we need people's approval, don't we?"

"I know!"

Lucci finally gave his response. After being annoyed by the two of them, he replied coldly, word by word.

"I know what you're saying makes sense, but this is the Dark Bird Ship, the master's palace!"

Without an adult's permission, I will not allow anyone other than the Dark Bird Ship to board this ship, which embodies the adults' hard work and safety!

You might think I'm making a mountain out of a molehill, but with our capabilities, no one can sneak in unnoticed!

But I must tell you, there are always shadows under the sun, and shadows represent accidents!

As for the safety of adults, I absolutely will not tolerate any accidents, understand?!
