At the same time.

Windmill Village.

In Makino's bar.

After Luffy left, although the crew of the Red Hair Pirates ran, danced, and drank, the atmosphere in the bar dropped significantly because Luffy was no longer a pistachio.

Many crew members would say something like this for no reason when drinking: "I don't know what happened to that kid Luffy now..."

Even Shanks is no exception.

On this day, the crew of the Red Hair Pirates came to the bar one after another after waking up as always.

Shanks sat in front of the bar, shaking the transparent glass, staring at the beer inside for a long time, wondering what he was thinking. Seeing this, Deputy Captain Benn Beckman walked over, tapped Shanks on the shoulder, ordered a beer from Makino, and sat down beside Shanks.

"What's wrong? Still thinking about Luffy?"

Shanks did not deny that he was really thinking about Luffy. In the few days that Luffy left, he thought of Luffy a lot. After all, he regarded Luffy as a true friend.

"That man is so powerful, how come we haven't heard of his reputation in this sea? Also, what is the purpose of him taking Luffy? Is it really because Luffy is a Monkey D Garp's grandson?"

Benn Beckman took the beer from Makino and comforted: "Shanks, stop thinking about it. We don't know anything about that person at all. It's impossible to guess what's behind him. What's the purpose? Didn't Makino also say it? Luffy left with this person before. Since that person didn't hurt Luffy at that time, we can assume that he won't hurt Luffy this time. Makino, you said so?"

"Huh? Yes... it should be..."

Benn Beckman said this to comfort Shanks and also to comfort Makino.

Luffy has been missing for the past few days, and Makino has not been left behind.

Shanks shook his head helplessly.

Obviously, this was not the answer he wanted.

He took a sip of the only remaining beer, and then drank happily: "One more drink!"

At this time.

An air door appeared out of nowhere in the bar.

The scene that was originally noisy was silent in an instant.

Seeing this air door, everyone was stunned.

There is no other reason, the impression that Li Yaoxiang gave them a few days ago was really deep. Afterwards, everyone discussed with their captain Shanks about Li Yaoxiang's strength. But it's okay not to discuss this.

The ignorant are fearless.

After discussion, they realized how deadly they wanted to act at that time. They did not expect that their captain would give Li Yaoxiang such a high rating, and they even said that they were no match for Li Yaoxiang at all.

Now I know that such an invincible character will appear in front of me and others again.

It must be a lie to say that you are not nervous!

Gulp…

The only thing left in the bar was the nervous voice of the pirates who could not help swallowing.

The air door opens.

Luffy came out of the air door.

The air door disappears.

Seeing that Li Yaoxiang had no intention of appearing, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Immediately, the atmosphere of the entire bar was rekindled, and everyone's mood was even higher than before.

"Luffy! You're finally back! Do you know how hard I waited for you?"

"Luffy, come! Come here! Tell me, where have you been having fun these days?"

"Luffy! Don't listen to him! Come to us, we'll make a new dance for you!"

The pirates shouted Luffy's name one after another.

Everyone is happy for Luffy's return.

Even Shanks, who was originally sad, couldn't help but smile.

But just when everyone thought that Luffy was about to infiltrate their group and make a fool of himself as always, Luffy's face was fierce, and he suddenly shouted towards the surrounding: "Shut up! You pirates shut up for me. I don't want to see you again! I hate pirates the most!"

Luffy had a stinky face and walked into the lounge of the bar without looking back.

It doesn't matter what the eyes of the crowd are.

The sudden scene made everyone present stunned for a while.

What happened?

It's only been a few days since I left, how could Luffy, who has always been lively and cheerful, become like this? You look at me, I look at you, and I don't know what's going on. Although the previous Luffy also said that he hates pirates, at least it was not be as extreme as it is now?

One by one, they lost all interest of Luffy.

didn't stay long.

All go back to the boat and continue drinking.

When everyone had gone about the same, Shanks chose to walk into the lounge alone at this time. Pushing open the door, he saw Luffy alone facing the wall without making a sound.

Shanks knocked on the door twice.

Knock!

Knock!

"Can I come in?"

Luffy did not respond.

After a moment of silence, Shanks chose to walk behind Luffy: "Can you tell me what happened?"

Luffy still didn't speak.

"Although I don't know where he took you these days, or what you've been through these days, I just want to tell you that I'll always treat you as my friend. Feel free to let me know if you have any questions..."

did not wait for Shanks to finish his words.

Luffy suddenly jumped on a table in the lounge with emotion, grabbed Shanks by the collar, his eyes were bloodshot, and said viciously: "Friend?! Friend—?! My mother was killed by a pirate! I don't have a pirate friend like you! I don't want to see you again! Get out of here! Get out of here!"

Luffy is a complete explosion.

Previously on Fishman Island, in order not to worry Shirahoshi, he had been suppressing his emotions all the time.

Now that he has finally returned to this familiar environment alone, he can no longer help venting all his emotions at once!

Shanks was also a little surprised.

He didn't expect that in just a few days.

Luffy went through so many things.

Without Luffy saying it so clearly, he can also guess that it should be some inhuman pirates who killed Luffy's 'mother', so Luffy became so extreme.

In the face of Luffy at this moment, he can't say anything.

He finally chose to remain silent, turned around and left.

In the next few days, even if Luffy never locked himself in the lounge again, and even occasionally sat in the bar, he still did not tell the crew of the Red Hair Pirates even a word again.

The pirates were also distracted by Luffy, and they became less and less concerned about this bar.

Until one day, a bandit with a bounty of 8 million Berry came here...
