Luffy, this forgetful guy, quickly forgot about Garp beating him, and said with a hearty smile: "I went to a place with a lot of fish!"

The two old guys looked at each other.

A place with lots of fishes?

In the entire One Piece world, almost 80% of the area is ocean.

Deputy Captain Bogard smiled: "Hehe, Luffy, can you explain a little more clearly? Where are this place with a lot of fish?"

Luffy frowned, gritted his teeth, and looked thoughtful.

Immediately, he clapped his palms and said with joy, "There are a lot of delicious cakes there!"

The two elders were speechless again.

Next, the two elders continued to ask questions in turn.

But Luffy's answer is either food or big fish. Hearing that, they were confused, no matter how hard they tried, they still couldn't get useful information from Luffy.

The two old men had no choice but to give up.

But now Garp can be sure that the so-called 'big brother' that Luffy used to talk about in the past is a real existence.

No matter whether that 'big brother' is or is not a person from the World Government, this is something he cannot tolerate.

He would never allow anyone to hit his grandson!

The exchange came to the end, seeing that it was getting dark, Garp crouched down and said cautiously: "Luffy, remember! Don't have any contact with that big brother in the future, do you know?"

Luffy squinted and smiled: "No—!"

"You you you...!"

Because of you, a world war is about to start!

You still dare to tell me no?!

Garp was so angry that Luffy couldn't even speak.

Bogard appeared behind him again and hooked his shoulder: "Don't, don't, don't get angry~ Luffy is still young, and there are many things he doesn't understand. I believe that after a while, he will slowly understand your painstaking efforts..."

Garp shook his shoulders and broke free.

Regardless, he came to Luffy again and said angrily: "Okay! Don't you? From today, you will stay by my side for 24 hours, and I will see how that bastard is still bewitching you under my nose!"

"Lat~la~la~la~" Luffy made a face directly at Garp, then laughed loudly, turned around and ran into the cabin.

Garp just wanted to catch up, and gave Luffy an iron fist of love.

But he didn't want to, just at this moment, a panicked sailor with a mobile phone ran out of the cabin: "Vice Admiral Garp! Vice Admiral Garp! Urgent...! Urgent...! Urgent..."

Garp stopped and said dissatisfiedly: "Why are you panicking? What's the matter, adjust your breathing first!" The sea soldier adjusted his breathing a little, and quickly handed over the phone bug and said, "The boss..."

Garp took the phone bug.

"Hey, what's the matter?"

"I heard... your grandson is back?"

"So what?"

"Congratulations. But... Since your grandson is all right, I hope you can cancel the vacation and come back to the headquarters immediately."

"Why? You know, it's impossible for me to leave him alone before I find out who kidnapped my grandson!"

"Garp, I can understand how you feel now, but...whether that person is from the World Government or not, if he wanted to hurt your grandson, he would have taken him hostage. Your grandson wouldn't have come back safely. Since they didn't hurt your grandson, that at least that proves that your grandson is safe now, doesn't it?"

"Humph! So what? This is not a reason for me to leave him!"

"..." Sengoku was silent for a moment, then continued, "The Holy Land was attacked."

As soon as the words came out.

Garp's heart seemed to stop beating for a moment.

The Holy Land Mary Geoise was attacked?

How can that be?

There is the base camp of the World Nobles, and there are many strong people there, not to mention that the marine headquarters is set up in Marineford, not far from the Holy Land Mary Geoise.

How could someone dare to risk the world to attack the Holy Land?

Garp didn't speak. The old friend Sengoku, who had worked with him for many years, immediately knew what Garp was thinking, and said directly: "It's a fishman who has been enslaved by for three years, Fisher Tiger. He attacked the Holy Land and released all the enslaved servants. Now all the World Nobles have been mad with anger. In order to save the face of the World Government, the Five Elders also issued a death order, no matter what the cost, that fishman must be resolved as soon as possible, it doesn't matter if he lives or dies."

Garp: "..."

Sengoku: "Old partner, the world needs you, the marine needs you, and I only trust you. Only you can reduce unnecessary sacrifices in this conflict."

Garp: "..."

Sengoku: "Come back..."

One month later.

In order not to let the situation continue to deteriorate, Garp finally chose to compromise, to rush back to Grand Line and help the marine arrest Fisher Tiger.

However, before that, he sent Luffy to the Windmill Village just like the original.

He delivered him to the village chief of Windmill Village.

Garp stood by the pier, and cautiously said goodbye to Slap, the village chief of Windmill Village: "Village Chief, Luffy will ask you."

Slap, who was wearing a yellow shirt with 'love' all over his shirt, waved his hand and said indifferently, "Don't worry, Luffy was born in our Windmill Village, and he is also a part of our village, Makino and I will definitely help you take good care of Luffy." Makino is the proprietress of the bar in Windmill Village.

After hearing the sound, she also promised: "Yes, we will definitely help you take good care of Luffy."

With the verbal promises of the two, Garp let go of his heart and breathed a sigh of relief.

He immediately warned Luffy viciously again: "Remember! Don't contact that 'big brother' again, otherwise, I'll show you when I come back!"

Responding to Garp, it was still a grimace: "Lep~Lep~Lep~Lep~"

Boom!

An iron fist of love knocked down directly.

The pain made Luffy burst into tears.

The farewell style of grandfather and grandson is still so popular.

Garp left the Windmill Village and headed for Grand Line.

Luffy is temporarily managed by Slap and Makino, living in this peaceful village.

…

Time flies, time flies.

In the blink of an eye, another 5 months passed.

Luffy is now five and a half years old.

Windmill Village welcomed a very imposing pirate ship on this day. It is completely incomparable to those pirate ships that the villagers have seen in the past.

After the news of spread, it immediately alerted the whole Windmill Village.

They tremblingly came to the pier to meet the pirate ship, hoping that the pirates would not be too mad for their attitude.

Quickly.

The pirate ship docked.

They dropped the anchor and fixed it on the pier.

A group of people got off the pirate ship.

The leader, wore a long black cape, a half-buttoned white shirt, brown cropped trousers, flip-flops, and a straw hat on top of his head.

A group of people came not far from the villagers.

The leader moved his straw hat slightly, revealing his scarred face, and smiled: "You can call me Shanks, the captain of the Red-haired Pirates. We are here just to record the pointer. As soon as the Log Pose is finished recording; we will leave immediately. Oh, and you don't have to be so restrained."

Shanks' politeness made many villagers heave a sigh of relief.

It seems that these pirates are not as vicious as they imagined.

But just when everyone thought that the contact between the two sides would end successfully, Luffy said with great disdain: "Bah, I hate pirates the most!"

Villagers: …

Red Hair Pirates: …
