And at this time.
Mihawk, who had escaped from the large army, was curiously looking at the lively scene around him.
Regarding this mysterious country that suddenly appeared from the East China Sea, there were not many reports in the World News and Economic News. It was only clear that this country directly captured a franchise country under the protection of World Government.
Very courageous!
At the same time, he not only hanged many pirates in the East China Sea, but also cooperated with the navy to launch an anti-crime operation.
As for the rest...
Not so sure!
But there is no doubt... the whole sea looks down upon this Land of Grass.
Mihawk couldn't help but think of that huge figure in his mind. He twitched the corners of his mouth again and shook his head.
The strength that Madara showed alone was probably something that even Four Emperors wouldn't dare to underestimate, let alone King of the Land of Grass who could make such a strong person obey and the guy who wore a gas mask and was called the leader Hanzō.
He can feel... they are not weak guys!
So, will this Land of Grass become a franchise country under pressure from World Government?
No kidding!
Even if this Land of Grass suddenly becomes the next Four Emperors force of the sea, the real overlord of the East China Sea, he probably won't find it strange now.
"Is the pattern of this sea going to change again?" Mihawk, who was carrying Great Black Sword on his back, suddenly sighed inwardly, and then regained his composure as if he didn't care at all, and said lightly, "Forget it! This sea is quite boring anyway!"
Land of Grass.
Original Kingdom of Goa island.
He has long been familiar with this country. After all, after that guy Shanks returned from the East China Sea, he would always talk about this country and its... Windmill Village.
He didn't expect that going to sea this time would be so interesting. Not only did he encounter things that he was still chopping, but he also boarded the Land of Grass ship and came here.
This time, I left specifically to see what Land of Grass really looks like.
If it makes him feel disgusted, even if there is an agreement, he will sneak away without looking back...
After all, although as the King's Shichibukai, he is not in the mood to care about ordinary people, but he also hates those guys who dare not swing their swords at the strong and only bully the weak.
But now it seems...
I have to say... it's really a country I've never seen before~
Especially since they actually opened up waterways so that ordinary people could sail and go to other places to work. He really didn't expect that there would be a country like this!
There were just weird banners hanging everywhere, which made him look weird!
"Is this Land of Grass here?" Mihawk looked at the picture above, muttered to himself, and then shook his head, "It's so impressive~"
Then he ignored it.
Anyway, these have nothing to do with him. This time I just want to continue to see the people he can kill and think about his next swordsmanship.
Besides that, it's also preparation... Look at the kid who even impressed that guy Shanks.
He even risked his own arm and hat?
What kind of kid would he be?
But considering the time and the agreement mentioned by Shanks... then the kid should have gone to sea by now!
Just thinking about Land of Grass again, Mihawk started to have a headache, "Is that kid really sinking into the sea?"
If it is true, Shanks will probably be very angry!
But thinking about the kid who can be recognized by Shanks, how could it end so easily?!
Just when I let out a long sigh.
Sudden.
Startled.
What do you seem to see?!
Frowning slightly, he raised his head and looked at the kid in front of him who was wearing a red vest, blue shorts, and open-toed straw sandals.
Of course~
What caught his eye was not the kid, but the... straw hat that kid was wearing on his head!
Familiar straw hat!
That's Shanks's straw hat!
That kid who looks silly and is eating a lot of food on the construction site is the guy Shanks values?
You won't admit your mistake!
That was definitely the straw hat that Shanks once attached great importance to.
It's just... why haven't you gone to sea yet?!
Mihawk was stunned for a moment, then with a cold face, he walked towards the kid with Great Black Sword on his back.
"Hahaha, today's food is also very delicious!"
"Cocoyasi Village refuses to ask you to go with me. You must know that not only will you get a subsidy, but as long as you work for a year or two, I heard that you can get a promotion and a salary increase when you come back! By then Luffy you can also become a foreman!"
"I want to be Pirate King's man!"
"Hahaha, Luffy, you started talking nonsense again, aren't you afraid that your legs will be broken again?"
Hearing what Luffy said, all the workers burst out laughing.
This kid...
Although he has some strange abilities and works very quickly and diligently, his thinking is not firm!
I always want to be a pirate!
Hearing that everyone didn't believe it, Luffy shouted dissatisfied, "It's true! I would have become Pirate King!"
However.
"Luffy, do you want more rice and vegetables? If not, I'll take it~"
"You want it! I'll come now!"
Luffy, who was arguing, suddenly stopped arguing and ran over with his own big basin as tall as one person.
only.
Just a few steps.
I felt like someone was suddenly blocking me, blocking my way.
Luffy suddenly said unhappily, "What's the matter? Get out of the way, I'm going to get some food! The chef is going to take it away!"
As he said this, he seemed to think of something, "Are you here to find a job? Then go over there, the foreman is over there!"
"..."
Who is looking for a job?!
Upon hearing this kid's words, Mihawk's face turned dark immediately and he stopped directly in front of Luffy.
Is this guy the future that Shanks is talking about?
Could it be that that guy not only had his hand broken, but was also blind?
But remembering Shanks's sworn expression every time, I took a deep breath and said, "Kid! Why are you here?"
"Eat!"
"... That's not what I'm asking!"
"Uncle, let me go, I'm going to add some food! Otherwise, it will be gone!"
Nothing more.
Luffy didn't seem to hear his words. He stretched out his hand directly, flew to the place where the rice was added, and said loudly, "Uncle Chef, add the rice!"
Not a moment.
Then he returned to his seat with a full meal, satisfied.
As for Mihawk, who was watching this scene... his face became even darker and he didn't know what to say.
I am even more doubtful in my heart: Is that idiot Shanks really blind?!
But after seeing the straw hat again, I calmed down a little, and then walked over with my black knife on my back.
Looking down at Luffy, he said calmly, "Kid! Where is your dream?"
The words just fell.
As if he heard the strange uncle's words, Luffy, who was talking loudly, stood up suddenly, raised his hands, and said with determination in his eyes, "I want to feed you a thief pill with orange juice... Uh!"
"..."
Although the words were unclear, Mihawk still roughly understood.
This kid wants to be Pirate King!
If it was just before, he might have ridiculed this little brat who didn't know the heights of heaven and earth, but now...
Looking at the kid who was almost choked to death, after thinking about it... I still decided to forget it!
Shanks... As expected, my eyes are still damaged!
Then he asked calmly, "Why haven't you gone to sea yet?"
"Ha, I almost choked to death!" Luffy, who seemed to have finally swallowed it, hammered his chest, and then looked at the uncle in front of him with a big basin in doubt. Although he thought the uncle was strange, he still ate and said slowly and confidently, "Going to sea? I have already decided that I will wait until I defeat that man before going to sea!"
"That man?" Mihawk frowned slightly, "Who?"
"That's the man~"
"Who is it?"
Just when Mihawk thought about whether he should cut it down and let the kid finish eating.
"Hahaha, Luffy is talking about Lord Madara!" The workers on the side suddenly burst into laughter, "Stop dreaming, Lord Madara is the strong one of Land of Grass, even Great Pirate who is in the tens of millions level is no match for Lord Madara!"
"I will definitely defeat him!" After hearing the ridicule from his coworkers, Luffy firmly held up his chopsticks and said, "Then! Go to sea again!"
"Don't get your legs broken again!"
"How can you say that pirates have broken their legs?"
"..."
Looking at the noisy crowd, Mihawk fell silent again.
It's just...
spots.
He seemed to understand something, raised his eyelids, looked at the coworker with a somewhat suspicious tone, and said lightly, "Madara? Madara Uchiha?"
"Hey, does this gentleman also know? Lord Madara is the strongest of our Land of Grass!"
"... The black hedgehog hair and the strange scratches on his face?"
"Yes... yes!" Seeing the guy who became serious for no reason, the co-worker couldn't help but feel a little nervous, "What's wrong?"
"... Is that the guy who looks quite arrogant and likes to talk about dancing at all times?"
"That's... that's not right! How can you call it arrogant?" Although he was a little nervous, seeing someone slandering Lord Madara like this, the worker was still dissatisfied and said, "That's the courage of a sea man!"
However.
The words fell.
Hear what this guy said.
Mihawk:...
A look of silence.
The corners of his mouth were also twitching.
It's really that guy!
Then he lowered his head and looked at the kid who ignored him and was still immersed in eating, and he couldn't help but take a breath.
This kid... has a lot of courage~
You actually think that you will have the strength of Four Emperors just by going to sea?!
He admitted that he might have underestimated the kid that Shanks recognized!
at the same time.
East China Sea.
Cocoyasi Village sea area.
A young girl was looking at the bustling dock in front of her with a confused look, then rubbed her eyes and murmured to herself, "I... I shouldn't have taken the wrong route~"
And that...
He raised his head and looked at the huge poster hanging not far from the pier.
[Old Tangerine Mama Orange jam! After eating it, everyone agreed!]
What is that from?
