other side.
This is Windmill Village.
"What the hell are you doing?"
"Do you know what is the relationship between World Government and Land of Grass now? Do you know what your identity is?"
"What kind of poor family, what kind of grandpa goes out to work far away, what kind of person is being exploited by his boss without even a moment's rest!"
"Have I ever treated you badly? Get back here quickly!"
"The Navy still has a lot of things to do next, why are you just slacking off? Let me tell you, I have sent Aokiji there. As for you, get back here right away. Don't let me give you the last order of Fleet Admiral!"
"Dudu~"
"..."
Looking at the sluggish Den Den Mushi, Garp scratched his head helplessly, and then laughed loudly, "It seems like it's time to go back, otherwise, that guy from the Warring States Period will really be angry."
As for the navy's handling, he probably guessed what the outcome would be.
Celestial Dragon is right, World Government is right, so whose fault can it be?
I just didn't expect that guy would actually send that guy Kuzan at this time?!
"Forget it, it's none of my business anyway!"
"Are you going back?" The hotel proprietress who was bartending - Makino looked at Garp curiously and said, "So fast? Haven't you seen Luffy yet?"
"No need to watch!" Lieutenant General Garp drank down the wine in his hand, then wiped the corners of his mouth and said with a smile, "A man from the sea should leave his parents the moment he becomes sensible and survive tenaciously! Hahaha~"
"It's because of irresponsible parents like you that BBC Daily found out such weird things!" The village chief on the side suddenly said unhappily, "You know Land of Grass has already severely criticized you irresponsible parents for not raising children!"
The words fell.
"Village Chief~"
Makino looked at the village chief helplessly, and then also remembered the news on BBC Daily, with a strange look on his face.
The above report...
You can't say everything is true, but you can't say everything is false either!
Speaking of which, BBC Daily is really... actually said in such a way.
Isn't this deliberately misleading?
"Dadan is very angry because of this incident!" Makino said in a helpless tone, "I kept talking... They only beat Luffy and his three brothers when they were young, but they never beat them again!"
"Oh oh oh~, then it seems that BBC Daily really didn't spread rumors!"
"Garp!"
"Okay, I know!" Hearing Makino's somewhat angry voice, Garp's originally laughing expression also subsided. He looked at Makino seriously and said, "If Dadan comes, please tell her that I have always been very grateful to her for taking care of Luffy so that she doesn't have to worry about the above things."
Shaking his head, "Then BBC Daily has become the only official newspaper designated by World Government, so those guys are not good guys!"
The words fell.
"..."
Hearing Garp's words, even though this was the East China Sea, Makino and the village chief couldn't help but break out a trace of cold sweat on their foreheads.
This Garp... is still the same!
To be honest, this mouth has not been beaten to death by World Government, but it can still become Navy Hero?!
Even the village chief of the same generation as Garp felt a little weird!
But this BBC Daily...
They really did not expect that BBC Daily would become the only officially designated newspaper of World Government.
Looking at the golden banner on the table BBC Daily with [World Government's only designation] printed on it, Makino and the village chief shook their heads, and then ignored it.
They'd better not get involved in such big shots!
"Seriously!" The village chief looked at Garp in front of him again and said, "It's a rare time to come back. Are you really not going to see Luffy? You know that Luffy has been working very hard during this period and has also received awards from Land of Grass. As a grandfather, shouldn't he praise his grandson?"
However.
"No! No! Hahaha~" Faced with the village chief's words, Garp laughed loudly, then stopped, with a faint smile on his face, and said, "That brat won't give up so easily!"
As a grandpa...
Although he doesn't know what that brat is doing, he knows the dream in Luffy's heart!
After saying that, facing the confused Makino and the village chief, they seemed to have thought of something interesting.
"Hahaha~" he smiled and patted the table, "I can't wait to see what the expression of that guy Shanks will be when he knows about this!"
"..."
This guy...
Looking at Lieutenant General Garp in front of them, Makino and the village chief shook their heads helplessly again.
Then Makino seemed to remember something, hesitated, looked at Garp and said, "Then Ace..."
The words are not finished yet.
But he was directly interrupted by Garp in front of him waving his hand.
"You don't have to worry about Ace's affairs, I will handle it myself!" The smile on Garp's face faded again, and he said seriously, "And tell Luffy..." There was a slight pause, "You have to practice hard, this sea is not as simple as he imagined!"
As he said that, he stood up again, and the smiling expression returned to his face again.
"It's getting late, I should go back, otherwise, the guy from the Warring States Period will probably be annoyed again. By the way, prepare a few bottles of those Jade Liquid Wine for me and bring them to the guy from the Warring States Period to try, and remember to issue an invoice~"
"..."
Hearing Garp's words, Makino and the village chief shook their heads helplessly again.
Of course~
Although they were very curious about what happened to Ace, since Garp said so, they could only stop asking any more questions.
"Please wait a moment, I'll prepare it for you!"
"Can I quote more money on the invoice?"
"That's not allowed here~, Garp!"
"If you can't, then you can't! Forget it, if it doesn't work, just ask the Warring States Period to borrow some money!" Garp didn't care. After laughing, his eyes fell on the small board beside him and asked in confusion, "Huh? Why did it change today? Land of Grass is a good mechanic? Where did this come from?"
"This is a competition that Land of Grass will hold in a while." Makino handed the prepared wine to Garp and said with a smile, "I heard that the prizes will be very generous. Maybe Luffy will also participate? Do you want to come back and see?"
"Is that so? This Land of Grass really likes to make these weird things!" Garp took the wine and didn't care about the small board and said, "Then I'll leave first. When that brat comes back, remember to tell him that his bonus has been taken by his grandfather. If you want it, come to the sea to find me! Hahaha~"
"..."
The two watched helplessly as Garp left.
What a bad taste!
At this time.
The village chief on the side said with emotion, "Luffy went to work, Garp went to work, it seems... it has to be quiet again!"
The words fell.
Makino also nodded with a smile, "Yes~"
And Garp... After carrying Land of Grass wine out of the tavern, the smile on his face disappeared. With a deep expression, he raised his head and looked ahead, "You actually sent Kuzan? What on earth did that guy from the Warring States Period want to do?"
At the same time.
Somewhere in the East China Sea near Red Line.
A man wearing a white suit vest, a dark blue shirt, a green eye patch on his forehead, and disheveled hair was riding an old bicycle slowly on the vast sea.
Then he yawned as if bored and looked around. "Loguetown... It should be over here, right?"
