Just when Shakky felt things weren't so bad...

An uninvited guest barged into the Rip-Off Bar.

Even Dark King Rayleigh, looked at this old acquaintance with surprise and instinctively placed his hand on the hilt of his sword.

"Rayleigh, it's been a long time!"

Fist Garp with short, pale hair, walked over to the chair in front of the bar and sat down, looking like a complete stranger.

"Shakky, I'd like juice, not alcohol, please."

Garp spoke to Shakky, the 'legendary' female pirate, without any hesitation.

"Relax, relax, Rayleigh, I've been dismissed from the Navy, I'm no longer a Marine."

Garp looked at Dark King Rayleigh was resting his hand on the hilt of his sword, and slapped Rayleigh on the shoulder.

The bar counter and the floor are shaking...

Dark King Rayleigh's lips twitched slightly. This mad dog still had that much strength.

"I really don't understand why Roger would entrust his son to your care..."

Rayleigh relaxed slightly and chuckled to himself, admitting that he still didn't quite understand Roger's choice.

Is it a doubt about his teaching ability?

Or perhaps Roger simply didn't want to disturb the retired lives of his old buddies.

After all, taking care of a baby is very troublesome.

When Roger returned from Laugh Tale, the Laugh Tale, he clearly told them that he hoped his son would become the chosen one, Joy Boy.

However, he ended up entrusting his son to Garp, a naval officer, for care.

Wasn't Roger afraid that Garp would train his son to be a Marine?

When Shanks took that fruit to Foosha Village, he stayed there for so long, but he still couldn't find Ace, whom Garp had hidden.

As a result, that Devil Fruit was eaten by Garp's grandson.

Ultimately, the will of Joy Boy and Roger was inherited by Garp's grandson.

Monkey D. Luffy has become the new chosen one.

It has to be said, fate is unpredictable.

"Hmph, do you think I'd want to take care of his son! That bastard Roger..."

"It has forced me to be extremely cautious in my words and actions for twenty years."

"Now we have to clean up his mess, and he even lost his position Marine Vice Admiral..."

Garp took the juice Shakky offered and drank it down in one gulp, then gestured for another glass.

As a self-disciplined navy officer, Garp rarely drinks alcohol.

Drinking alcohol will only affect his punching speed and accuracy.

Look at these pirates who love to drink: Roger has a terminal illness, Whitebeard is plagued by a serious disease, and Rayleigh looks a bit weak...

He was the only one who was still full of energy and enthusiasm, just like an eighteen-year-old.

"You're going to make a move?"

"Damn it, who told this disobedient brat to be my grandson!"

"You've recognized Ace as your grandson, thus elevating yourself a generation above Roger for no reason. You've been up to no good for a long time."

"I've raised Roger's son for nothing, can't I even get a little something in return! That damned Roger, he won't even give me a penny for baby formula!"

"Are you really willing to betray your own sense of justice?"

"I'm no longer in the Navy. In fact, being dismissed by the World Government has made me feel much more at ease."

···

Shakky smiled as she Dark King Rayleigh and Fist Garp talk, and she frequently poured juice for Garp.

With this naval hero stepping in, her husband might be in less danger.

"Is it worth it? You're a naval hero..."

Rayleigh understood what kind of man Garp was; he wanted Garp to help, but he didn't want to continue dragging Garp down with him.

To be honest, Roger did act unfairly, dragging Garp into the mess.

Perhaps Roger also wanted to bring Garp, D Clan, into the cause of liberating the world.

"Alas, my good-for-nothing son is the leader of the Revolutionary Army..."

Garp was also helpless. If it weren't for his hard work, strength, and the protection of Kong the Sengoku the Buddha, his relationship with Dragon alone would have been enough to give him trouble.

He also wanted Dragon, Ace, and Luffy to all become righteous Marines.

But fate plays tricks on people like that.

"Those idiots in the World Government, with your personality, if they reinstated you, you'd definitely become Ace's enemy..."

Dark King Rayleigh, looked at Garp, who had a worried expression, shook his head, and chuckled softly.

Fortunately, the World Government did not trust Garp, thus cutting off its own arm.

Otherwise, Fist Garp would be an insurmountable obstacle for the Whitebeard Pirates.

"That damned Morgans, he's the one who leaked Ace's information and then slandered me, slandered Aokiji, slandered Akainu..."

Even Garp, that reckless brute, could feel a giant hand controlling everything.

Even Red-Haired Shanks, was manipulated by the media.

Golden Lion Shiki was also dragged into this.

It seems that someone is indeed orchestrating everything behind the scenes, wanting to see a war World Government and the Four Emperors.

Besides genuinely wanting to save his grandson Ace, Garp also wanted Whitebeard to rescue Ace quickly and end the war to avoid such heavy casualties.

We must not let the schemes of those behind the scenes succeed.

"Morgans is just the one in the limelight; I actually suspect the real mastermind is the Revolutionary Army and the Underworld..."

When Shakky heard Garp complaining about the Big News about Morgans, she spoke up for the first time seriously.

Shakky had sensed something was wrong ever since Morgans started exposing Fire Fist Ace.

By analyzing the various forces forced into the vortex of war, the beneficiaries are clearly the Revolutionary Army.

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! That Dragon doesn't have that ability!"

Garp directly rejected this troublesome son who had been hiding for over twenty years.

If Dragon had that much power, that much intelligence, and that brilliant mind, the Revolutionary Army would have taken off long ago.

"However, the Revolutionary Army does indeed want to overthrow the World Government and weaken the World Government and the Marine Headquarters."

They might actually be planning to use this war to invade the weakened Impel Down and rescue Emporio Ivankov, one of the founders of the Revolutionary Army.

Shakky analyzed rationally that if Morgans had given up so much Big News and secrets, the intelligence network of the force behind him must be very strong.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have known so much about Fire Fist Ace, Garp, Aokiji, Akainu, Red-Haired Shanks, and Golden Lion Shiki.

It's important to know that information such as Garp adopting Ace, the destruction of Ohara, and Golden Lion Shiki is extremely difficult to find.

Even Shakky's intelligence network had only a vague understanding of this information, or even no clues at all.

"Could it really be this bastard?"

After listening to Shakky's detailed analysis, Garp was starting to believe it.

Such a large amount of intelligence could only be obtained by powerful forces like the Underworld and the Revolutionary Army.

Most importantly, Dragon, the former navy officer and now the Leader of the Revolutionary Army, has access to a lot of intelligence.

"Damn it! Could it be that Ace was actually exposed by Morgans?"

Garp clenched his fists; now he really wanted to catch Dragon and get to the bottom of things with his iron fists.

What terrible plan is the Revolutionary Army brewing?

On the Winter Granma, in a remote sea area some distance from the end of the Grand Line Paradise.

Dragon suddenly sneezed a few times, feeling a chill creeping over him.

My shoulders even felt heavy and tired, as if I were carrying a large pot on my back.

That shouldn't be the case.

How can a free wind be bound?

"Wang Shi, this war is definitely related to you. What exactly are you plotting?"

Dragon wrapped his green robe and green hat tighter around himself, his expression extremely solemn.

Although he was supposed to be going to rescue people 'safely', he still felt uneasy.

There's always a feeling of being manipulated.
