Chapter 99 What to say

Buggy was confused when he heard what Garp said.

Did he say he wanted to be in the navy?

What he meant was to be like the overlord of the East China Sea, following Vice Admiral Garp and working under him.

Even that fool Mok can become the overlord of the East China Sea. With his uncle Buggy's ability and wisdom, he can at least become one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea under Vice Admiral Garp!

Thinking of this, Buggy felt even less shy. He shuddered, raised his head, and looked at Vice Admiral Garp with expectant and eager eyes, "Boss Garp, I want to follow you like Captain Mok!"

"What do you mean by following me? This kid didn't follow me!"

"That's right, I didn't follow Boss Garp!"

"..."

Even Boss Garp called out so naturally, and you still said that there was no follower?

These two guys have been discovered by Uncle Bucky, yet they are still pretending?
Do you really think your uncle Bucky is an idiot?
Buggy felt a surge of contempt in his heart, especially for Vice Admiral Garp... He never expected that the naval hero who had been chasing the captain and shouting about justice turned out to be a hypocritical old man!
Of course, although he thought so in his heart, Buggy certainly couldn't say it out loud. He looked at Garp with a serious look, nodded, and said, "I understand! Boss Garp, I want to follow you like this too!"

"You really want to follow me?" After seeing that the boy was not joking, Garp laughed while stuffing his snacks with big mouthfuls, "Roger's little brother actually said he wanted to follow me?"

He seemed to have discovered something interesting and looked at Bucky.

"Are you sure what you said is true?"

"Of course!"

Bucky cursed inwardly again, but a smile remained on his face, his head held high, and he was about to show his loyalty.

“Ahaha, let’s not talk about this for now. I’m on vacation now!” Garp patted Buggy on the shoulder cheerfully and raised the beer in his hand. “It’s rare to see an acquaintance. Let’s have a drink first!”

"Cheers, Boss Garp!"

"..."

Looking at Mok who called him "boss" in front of him, Buggy felt contempt in his heart again, but he also raised his hand and said excitedly, "Boss Garp, cheers! It is my honor to follow Boss Garp!"

Although I feel sorry for the captain, but...

Sorry, Captain, he just wants to survive!

For a while.

Everyone drank beer happily and the atmosphere was harmonious.

Especially Vice Admiral Garp...suddenly seeing such an [old friend] reminded him of the days when he was chasing Roger, and he felt a little emotional for a moment.

Especially after hearing that Roger's former younger brother was now shamelessly trying to join his army?
It made him laugh even harder, and he even thought that Roger and his friends would be shocked if they saw it, and he laughed so hard that it seemed as if tears were about to fall.

I even couldn't wait to take this kid back home!

only.

Thinking of his rare vacation, Garp endured it. After patting Buggy, he remembered that he had another purpose for coming here this time. He looked at the bar owner of Windmill Town in front of him happily and said, "Makino, where is that brat Luffy? Why haven't I seen that brat since I came back for several days? Could it be that the brat has secretly gone out to sea?"

"Mr. Garp, Luffy and the others agreed to go to sea at the age of 17." Hearing Garp's words, Makino, who was wiping his wine glass, looked helpless, "You are their grandfather, how could you forget all this?"

Having said that, he put down the wine glass that he had already wiped clean, and looked at Mr. Cap, who didn't care at all about what he said.

Of course, Makino also understood that Mr. Garp did not really not care about Luffy and the others.

He picked up another wine glass and whispered, "Luffy is now working on the next island."

As soon as these words fell.

"???" Karp, holding a wine glass in his hand, was stunned and blinked his eyes. "Working?"

What the hell?
"The next island? Did the boy go out to sea?"

"I told you we haven't set out to sea yet!" Makino shook his head, and said with a helpless and slightly emotional tone, "Some time ago, the neighboring island came to the Kingdom of Goa to recruit workers, and many people went there."

Of course, everyone was very scared at first, especially when they heard that the boss behind that group of people seemed to be a pirate. Everyone didn't believe it at first and thought it was a scam. However, as some people at the Uncertainty Terminal were so hungry that they followed them and found that those guys were not scamming, more and more people went there.

"The village chief has also taken a special look. It is indeed as they said. Food and accommodation are provided, and wages are paid. During this period, many people from the Kingdom of Goa have gone there. Didn't you see that there are fewer people in Windmill Town? They all went there to work."

"Is that so? No wonder I always felt that there were so many fewer people coming back this time. Did they go out to work? I thought they were all sleeping in!" Karp scratched his head. This operation seemed to remind him of something. He said happily, "It seems that the boy has fulfilled his promise to me."

He drank the beer in his hand in one gulp, "So, that brat really went to work?"

"Yes, some time ago, he heard that he could have enough food, so he went with them. At the beginning, when he heard that they were going out to sea, Luffy refused. He always remembered the agreement. But then he heard that it was not going out to sea, but just working outside and he could come back every week. And when the village chief said that if he could work and save some money, he might have enough money to buy his own boat, he went with joy."

Recalling the scene when the village chief coaxed Luffy to go to work, Makino had a smile on his face, and then there was some worry in his tone.

"However, many civilians have fled the Kingdom of Goa recently. I heard that the King and nobles of Goa are very unhappy. A few days ago, they brought their guards to cause trouble. Although they were beaten back, everyone is still worried that the King of Goa will send the navy over. If that happens, everyone will be out of work!"

"Navy? Don't worry, I am the navy. If there is any problem, let those idiots from the Goa Kingdom come to me!" Hearing Makino's words, Garp patted his chest nonchalantly, "They can't even keep their own people, aren't they ashamed? And the navy has no right to interfere in this matter, hahaha~"

He let out a hearty laugh.

"I didn't expect to hear such good news after coming back this time. Those idiots must be pissed off! Come on, both of you, have a drink with me!"

"Cheers, Boss Garp!" X2
"If everyone hears what Mr. Garp said, they will be very happy." After getting Garp's answer, Makino was relieved and smiled again. He seemed to think of something and said while wiping the cup, "If you calculate the time, Luffy should be back in two days. Luffy will be very happy to see Mr. Garp come back to see him. The kid saved a lot of money to buy a boat, and he was worried that he would lose it, so he left it all with me. Even the village chief praised Luffy for being sensible."

"Ahaha, really?" Hearing someone praising Luffy, Garp was quite happy, but he seemed to have heard something important. Garp, who was laughing, was stunned, and then lowered his head to look at Makino with a serious expression, "What did you just say?"

"???"

……

A construction site somewhere on the island next to the Kingdom of Goa.

“Hehe!”

A guy wearing a straw hat suddenly sneezed loudly.

It was so loud that it shook the entire construction site, scaring the workers all around.

Immediately afterwards...

"Luffy, why did you sneeze so loudly? Do you have a cold?"

A rough voice came from behind.

Luffy, who was rubbing his nose with a puzzled look on his face, was suddenly brought back to his senses. He opened his confused eyes and scratched his head, "No, I just feel like something is going to disappear!"

"What's missing? What are you talking about?" At this time, a sturdy man wearing a helmet walked up to Luffy and said, "Dinner has already started, but you're not the first one to rush into the cafeteria today? This is not like you! Are you really angry..."

The words are not finished yet.

“Is dinner ready?!”

As if he heard something important, Luffy quickly shook off the other messy things in his mind and showed a playful expression. He raised his dusty right hand to press down his straw hat, and then stretched out his left hand.

Suddenly.

The whole person flew out.

"I almost forgot to eat. Hehehe, I'm hungry. I'm going to eat!"

Only the sturdy man with a stunned look on his face was still talking.

"...Are you sick?" The sturdy man looked at Luffy who jumped to the cafeteria door, his face still blank, and then shouted loudly, "Remember to wash your hands!"

After getting Luffy's "Got it!", the sturdy man shook his head and smiled helplessly, "No matter how many times I see it, this kid's ability is still a little incredible! Forget it, the kid doesn't look sick."

only.

As he spoke, the sturdy man who was looking up seemed to see something. Looking at the straw hat boy who directly carried away the entire rice bucket, his originally helpless expression suddenly panicked, and he hurriedly shouted, "You stinky boy, leave some for me, I haven't eaten yet!"
