"No. I'll probably go back to Foosha Village and retire."

"That sounds boring. Once you retire, why not come to my island and help me train the kids? If we work together, I'm sure we can raise plenty of people whose names will be known across the seas one day."

"Forget it. Why would I go to all that trouble after retiring? I'd rather stay in Foosha Village, drink tea, eat snacks, and go hunting in the mountains whenever I feel like it. That sounds a lot more relaxing."

"You really have no ambition at all," Woni said with disdain. "Whatever. I've known what you're like for years. Oh, right, your grandson's almost ten, isn't he? Why not send him to my dojo? I'll train him."

"Get lost! What do you mean, almost ten? Luffy's nearly fifteen!"

"Huh? He's grown that much?"

"Quit acting so surprised. You've never even met the kid."

"Hahaha! Once I leave Pigeon Island, bring him to visit when you have time. I'll make sure you're both well looked after."

Garp said impatiently, "Then spit it out. I'm busy."

"Hahaha! What could possibly keep you busy all day? It's nothing, really. I'm just happy today. You could say this is the happiest I've been in all the years since I came to Pigeon Island."

Garp paused, then shook his head with a smile. "You're nuts. Anyway, Sengoku called me over earlier, and I don't know what he wants. I'm hanging up."

With that, Garp hung up.

Meanwhile...

"Oh, no..." Ye Qiu Luo said awkwardly.
