Half an hour later.
The warship set sail again, and unlike when it came to Cocoyasi Village, there were two more members on the warship that set sail again.
The two adopted daughters of Bellemere, who was posthumously named a naval hero, Nami and Nojiko.
Nojiko's reaction was relatively calm, because she didn't really want to become a navy. The reason was that once she and Nami went to Marine Headquarters, no one would take care of the Orange Grove left behind by her adoptive mother.
Even though Gen volunteered to protect Orange Grove, she still felt a little reluctant to leave her.
Nami has a relatively wild temperament, so leaving Cocoyasi Village is not a big deal to her. After all, her dream since she was a child is to travel around the world and draw a map of the world.
Now there is an opportunity in front of her, and of course she will not refuse it.
Of course, if it were in the past, she would definitely not have chosen to become a navy. Because of Arlong's group, she naturally hated the navy who did nothing. But since Navy Marshal Akira personally visited East Blue, She even killed every one of Arlong's gang. The following series of righteous actions made her completely change her view of the navy. Not only did she not reject it, but deep down in her heart, she also hoped that one day she could put on the navy uniform and become a righteous navy.
The most important thing is that she wants to see that Navy Marshal again.
The moment she heard that Navy Marshal would be their instructor and personally lead them to become righteous naval warriors, she agreed on the spot without any hesitation.
"Hello, my name is Monkey·D·Luffy, and I want to be the man of Pirate King!"
On the deck of the warship, Luffy tilted his head and stared at Nami and Nojiko. In the end, he couldn't hold it back anymore. He suddenly stretched out his hands, and then flicked in front of the two sisters. He then said familiarly, "See that green onion behind me. Already? His name is Zoro, he is my partner, and there is the serious-looking Ace sitting on the bow, he also wants to be Pirate King. Oh, by the way, there is also Usopp with the slingshot, he also wants to compete with me for captain, hee~"
After a slight pause, Luffy suddenly pretended to be mysterious and said, "Did you also want to become pirates, and then you were caught on a warship? Don't be afraid, the commander of this warship is my grandfather, he will not hurt us!"
"??"
Seeing the goose that suddenly approached and vowed to become a pirate in front of the navy, Nami and Nojiko both opened their eyes unexpectedly.
Immediately afterwards--
Nami stood up abruptly, and then quickly slapped Luffy on the face, sending Luffy rolling twice on the deck before stopping.
The sudden change caused Zoro and Ace to widen their eyes almost at the same time, and Usopp was so frightened that he almost knelt down on the spot.
Before the three of them could react, Nami quickly rushed to Luffy, grabbed him by the collar and scolded him like a dominatrix, "Who told you that we also want to become pirates? Does being a pirate make you proud? I was invited by Mr. Garp to join the navy. When I become a real navy soldier, I will definitely arrest all of you damn pirates and imprison them!"
As he said this, Nami still didn't feel relieved. He raised his fist as big as a sandbag and pointed it at Luffy's head, shooting left and right.
"!!!!"
Unexpectedly, Nami, who seemed so gentle and quiet, could be so irritable. Zoro was shocked with expressions all over his face. He stared at Ace who was sitting on the bow of the boat, "Hey, hey, hey, don't you stop it? It's your brother who's getting beaten, bastard!"
Ace remained silent, as if the matter had nothing to do with him.
Usopp was completely suffocated by Nami's aura. He knelt on the deck and kept retreating, stammering. "It's... so scary, so scary!"
Luffy obviously didn't expect that Nami would be so kind. He just let Nami shoot his bow from left to right and swollen his head and face.
"Stop... stop fighting!"
Finally, Luffy woke up from a burst of severe pain, then raised his hands to protect his head that had grown mushrooms, and said with a sad face, "I'm just curious why you were caught on the warship by grandpa. It hurts, it hurts, it really hurts!"
When Nami clicked, he threw Luffy out with a fierce expression. "Don't say in front of me that you want to be a pirate again!"
"Because I want to be Navy King's woman!"
"I got it." Luffy covered his swollen mouth and nodded wildly.
At this moment, Garp walked out of the cabin.
In the cabin, witnessing the scene that happened on the deck, Garp not only did not feel distressed because Luffy was beaten into a pig's head, but he could not bear it after seeing the tragic situation of Luffy. He couldn't help laughing out loud, "Ah hahaha, what a terrible fist, it can actually make Luffy feel pain. It's not easy, it's not easy. No wonder Akira wants to take you to the headquarters by name!"
"To be precise, the fact that Akira, the most hard-blooded Marshal in the history of the Navy, can be remembered means that you guys are not simple, hahaha!"
Amid the heroic laughter of Garp, Seafood Restaurant Baladi is also far away.
Ten minutes later, the warship docked steadily in front of the gate of Seafood Restaurant.
The arrival of the warship did not attract the attention of the diners and chefs in the restaurant, because Seafood Restaurant's business has always been very good, and it is well-known by word of mouth. East Blue Many Marine Branch officers often come here because of its reputation. Over time, Seafood Restaurant has become accustomed to it.
However, although the diners and waiters in the restaurant were not disturbed, in a bedroom on the top floor of the restaurant, the restaurant owner Zeff, who was wearing a super tall chef's hat, his face instantly became solemn after seeing clearly the face of Garp on the deck of the warship.
As a great pirate who once broke into Grand Line and sailed for more than a year before returning to East Blue, Zeff is naturally not only familiar with Garp, but also knows Marine Headquarters Vice Admiral very well.
Every time Garp returns to East Blue for vacation, he almost always passes the route where Seafood Restaurant is, but every time Garp never comes close.
And now, Garp not only came closer, but also parked the warship in front of the restaurant door. It was obvious that he came with bad intentions.
"Zeff, stop hiding!"
The moment Zeff stood in front of the window and looked at the warship, Garp seemed to have noticed his presence. With the height of the warship, he stood on the deck and raised his head slightly, saying in a deep voice, "Although you have been keeping this company Seafood Restaurant safe and sound in East Blue all these years, it doesn't mean that I don't know your former identity."
"But don't be nervous. I'm not here to investigate, but to take away a kid from your restaurant on the order of Marshal."
"Vinsmoke Family's third son, Vinsmoke·Sanji."
As Garp's voice sounded, some diners in the restaurant looked sideways out of the window. Sanji, who had just walked into the restaurant with a plate of dishes from the kitchen, stopped suddenly and froze on the spot because of the name "Vinsmoke·Sanji".
