Luffy, how can you become the Pirate King if you don't work hard!

Robin was responsible for holding Luffy firmly down as he was trying to have a friendly grandfather-grandson conversation with Garp, especially by covering his mouth.

Because Luffy gets so angry when he hears Garp yelling that he's going to arrest him that he shouts all sorts of bastard old man and stinky grandpa, which is obviously not good for his recovery and could easily further provoke Garp.

Zoro watched the pursuing dog-headed warship and remarked, "As expected of the Marine hero Garp, he actually has such a strong person by his side."

He sensed a powerful swordsman above him, perhaps one of Garp's subordinates?

It must be Uncle Bogart.

Luffy does have some recollection of this; many times when Garp returned to Windmill Village, Bogart was always by his side, though he hadn't seen him actually fight much.

But none of that matters anymore.

For Luffy, the goals of rescuing Robin and declaring war on the World Government have been achieved, and the temporary plan is complete.

[Automatically adjusted according to physical condition, the objective of rescuing Robin and declaring war on the World Government has been achieved, and the temporary plan has ended.]

[Adjustments should be made to suit the character's current state. Essential knowledge is necessary to become the Pirate King, and it helps in better developing Devil Fruit abilities.]

[Random learning project...Study with Robin, please start immediately.]

【warn......】

They're back; that familiar voice.

"Waaaaah!"

With his mouth covered, Luffy could only make muffled sounds as he watched the line of text on the planning panel flash continuously.

He became even more anxious.

Now is not the time to argue with Garp.

He needs to study!

Robin was still holding Luffy, covering his mouth.

Because as soon as Garp mentioned capturing Luffy, Luffy immediately retaliated fiercely.

The way this grandfather and grandson interact is quite unusual.

The timing of the plan made Luffy eager to speak, so he had no choice but to target Robin's hands.

You must not bite.

In a moment of desperation, Luffy had a sudden inspiration and stuck out his tongue to lick Robin's palm, which was covering his mouth.

As expected, he got the chance to speak.

"ah!"

Robin gasped softly, pulling her hand back as if she'd been electrocuted. Two red blushes instantly rose to her cheeks, and she gave Luffy a reproachful glare, "You..."

"Robin, let's study!"

Luffy, now free to speak, immediately said to Robin at lightning speed, "Let's continue learning the ancient script, just like before. Let's begin now!"

If he doesn't start, his body won't be able to hold up.

Robin was taken aback. Although she was extremely surprised that Luffy still had the mind to study at such a critical moment, she nodded when she saw the undeniable seriousness and urgency in his eyes.

It's better to get Luffy to calm down and focus on his studies than for him to waste his energy shouting randomly.

Teacher Robin came online very quickly.

This posture is perfect for imparting knowledge and resolving doubts, but it feels strange. So he gently placed Luffy's head on his lap and began to explain the pronunciation and meaning of an ancient character in a low voice.

Thus, a bizarre scene unfolded on the turbulent sea outside Judicial Island.

A pirate ship with a sheep's head was speeding ahead, while a warship with a dog's head was in hot pursuit. Cannonballs flew and exploded back and forth in between, while on the deck of the pirate ship, their captain was comfortably lying on the archaeologist's lap, studying ancient history attentively.

This scene was clearly seen by Garp, who was holding up his binoculars.

Garp's jaw nearly dropped onto the deck; he had just been wondering why Luffy had suddenly gone silent.

What did he see?

My own stubborn grandson, who only knows how to eat meat and fight, just fought a horrific battle with a naval admiral, and now he's actually studying in the arms of a beautiful woman... It looks like he's studying?

His first reaction was:

Am I going to be a great-grandfather?!

Chapter 211 Grandson vs. Grandfather

But based on Garp's understanding of Luffy, the probability of this happening is probably about the same as Shanks suddenly announcing that he wants to join the Navy.

Moreover, his grandson, who had just been having a friendly chat with him, suddenly became engrossed in his beauty's lap, completely ignoring his grandfather.

Garp was furious; a strange mix of sourness and anger rushed to his head.

He started cursing directly, and this time it sounded much more sincere: "Damn Luffy! You brat, stop and surrender to me! What kind of nonsense is it for the grandson of a Marine hero to be a pirate!"

He grabbed another specially made chain shot, leaned back, straightened his legs, and used his waist and abdomen to throw it with all his might, like a baseball player throwing a baseball.

Fist Bone - Broken Mast!

The chain shot spun, whistling through the air, and was faster than the previous shells.

"not good!"

Sanji and Zoro acted simultaneously.

Sanji leaped into the air, kicking out with both feet in an attempt to change the trajectory of the chain shot, while Zoro swung his sword again, slashing at the chain connecting the iron ball.

Clang!

boom!

It took the two of them working together to barely deflect the deadly chain shot.

The chain shot fell into the sea, and the explosion created a wave that resembled a small tsunami, causing the Going Merry to tilt violently and nearly capsize.

Luffy was instantly enraged, lifting his head from the ocean of knowledge and Robin's lap pillow:

"You damn old man, you should just retire already and stop bothering me while I'm studying!"

Then, having regained some strength, he shouted to Usopp:

"Usopp, give me the cannonballs!"

Usopp quickly brought over a box of cannonballs.

Luffy grabbed one, mimicking Garp's pose. His arm muscle memory was activated, his waist twisted, and he poured all the remaining strength in his body into his arm, then swung it violently.

"You think you're the only one who knows how to throw?!"

boom!!

A jet-black cannonball, with speed and force no less than Garp's throw, pierced the sky and accurately struck the area around the bow of the dog-headed warship.

The sudden attack was incredibly powerful, and it was like a mirror image attack, which stunned Garp for a moment. Bogart, who was next to him, stared wide-eyed at Luffy in astonishment.

That posture and that technique of exerting force.

It's Garp's move.

When did he learn that?!

"Grandpa, I've seen you use this move so many times when I was a kid!" Luffy shouted proudly.

The talent of "photographic memory" came into play at this moment, as the techniques of the strong are essentially the same.

Luffy's physique is still some distance from Garp's, but by utilizing the unique properties of the Gum-Gum Fruit, it's still quite easy for him to perfectly replicate Garp's signature throwing techniques.

Luffy reached out and threw another cannonball, shouting, "Grandpa, if you come after me again, I'll sink your dog-headed ship!"

"Pfft, hahaha!"

Garp, instead of being angry, was delighted and threw his head back, bursting into an even more hearty laugh. "You've learned my moves, huh? Interesting! I just wonder how much of it you've mastered!"

He also grabbed a cannonball and threw it using the same fist technique.

boom!

The two shells collided violently between the two ships, exploding into a dazzling fireball, and the shockwave spread out in a circle of white vapor.

"How about this?"

Garp grinned, revealing two rows of gleaming white teeth.

His hands seemed to vanish, becoming afterimages as he continuously grabbed shells from the ammunition boxes beside him and threw them forward at an astonishing frequency.

Fist Bone Meteor Shower!

In an instant, black shells rained down on the Going Merry like a real meteor shower.

The density of these attacks was enough to instantly blast a large warship into pieces.

"Whoa, we're doomed!" Usopp ran away, clutching his head.

But Luffy's competitive spirit was also ignited.

Fist and Bone - Meteor Shower!!

He roared back, his hands moving with lightning speed as he pulled cannonballs from the cannon boxes that Usopp and Chopper had brought, then hurled them out with almost the same posture and technique.

Boom!

The sea between the two ships was completely covered by continuous explosions and towering columns of water and smoke.

Both crews watched this extraordinary scene with bated breath. It was practically a battle of manpower and artillery, where any stray shell could cause fatal damage to the ships.

Moreover, the fight between the grandfather and grandson seemed to be going all out.

Especially the Marines on Garp's ship, it was the first time they had ever heard that Vice Admiral Garp actually had a grandson, especially such a great pirate who had just caused a huge disturbance at Enies Lobby.

However, engaging in a bomb-fighting contest with Grandpa was something that wasn't part of the plan.

Then something astonishing happened: Luffy was actually discussing academic issues with Robin while throwing cannonballs.

"Robin, did that symbol represent water or the sea?"
