On the moon, in Birka City.
Teach, who was playing with his friends, suddenly froze.
To his delight, he discovered that his control over Cthulhu's power had grown more than tenfold.
Could he get stronger just by playing?
Then he would never fall behind his Ancient Moon brothers.
He looked happily at Kamui, Ryuma, Katakuri, Shamrock, and Shanks—his dear brothers, though they shared neither father nor mother.
But whenever he looked at Lu Ya, he felt an instinctive dislike he could not explain.
He quickly pushed it down. Little Lu Ya was his brother too!
Katakuri's gaze sharpened. Teach's aura seemed to have grown considerably stronger.
Had Teach finally awakened Uncle Rocks's inherited talent?
Teach might even awaken Conqueror's Haki before Shamrock, Shanks, and Lu Ya.
Meanwhile, the innocent, sunny Lu Ya sensed something strange about his brother. Why did Teach suddenly feel a little unpleasant to him?
Unlike Teach, he did not suppress the feeling. He ran straight over.
"Teach, are you hiding something tasty? Are you trying to trick us?"
Little Lu Ya spoke without hesitation. His talent for sensing good and evil had detected a trace of wickedness in Teach.
"I'm not! I'm not!"
Little Teach waved his hands frantically. Then he finally understood why he had felt that instinctive dislike for Lu Ya.
The guy had opened his mouth and accused him out of nowhere.
He really had not hidden any food, nor had he planned to trick his brothers.
"Really?"
Little Lu Ya puffed out his cheeks and muttered. For some reason, Teach had felt different ever since a moment ago.
"Really!"
Teach raised his hand and protested loudly. Normally simple and timid, he remembered what Pops had taught him.
The Davy Clan never backed down!
"Lu Ya, stop thinking about food all the time!"
