When Andrew was talking, Luffy was still dissatisfied and didn't listen much.
But after Nokkigao spoke to him with words of persuasion...
Ahem, Luffy naturally has no intention of forgetting his true love, but after all, in some respects, he was raised by bandits Dadan and Maginot.
In short, after Maginot finished speaking, Luffy was silent for a long time, and finally nodded heavily.
"I see!"
I saw Luffy suddenly sitting up from the cart, clenching his fists and speaking harshly.
"The reason why Shanks let that bandit hit him on the head with a wine bottle was because he was worried about me... and everyone was injured because of his fight with the bandit!
Just like Shanks would rather break off an arm to save me from the mouth of the King of the Sea, he is such a person who doesn't want others to be hurt because of him!"
Having said this, Luffy seemed to understand something. He gritted his teeth and looked at everyone, then bowed fiercely.
"Sorry, everyone!
I am...I am really impulsive today!
If...if I pissed off that damn guy, if he ordered his men to shoot them all.
Although I'm fine, everyone will be injured...or even die!
!”
After the words fell, Luffy finally showed a scared expression, and he kept shaking his head while continuing to emphasize to people.
"I was so angry today, so angry that I almost forgot that everyone existed!
I...I should learn from Shanks and consider everyone's safety!"
After saying that, Luffy rubbed his head in frustration.
As for Maginot next to him, the girl shook her head dejectedly.
"Shanks, he..."
I heard Mackinac say softly.
"That's not necessarily what Shanks thinks. He seems to simply look down on the so-called Bandit King..."
While talking, Maginot recalled the shadow of Shanks in her mind.
At first, she thought of the nice gentleman who liked to smile, but didn't seem to like fighting, and wouldn't even get angry if someone hit him on the head with a bottle.
But on the other hand, when Maginot was thinking that, news about Shanks in the New World rushed into Maginot's mind.
The guy who seemed like he didn't even fight back against the Bandit King who had a bounty of just a few million, suddenly became the supreme king among the unimaginable fourth pirates with a bounty of more than 4 billion...
The reputation of the Four Pirate Emperors exists because of Shanks. The young red-haired man almost single-handedly completely broke the inherent strength pattern of the New Era and the Grand Line!
He is such a guy. Could the so-called benevolence he showed in Windmill Village really be pure benevolence?
Is he really like Luffy thinks, a good person who can't bear to let other people get hurt, so he swallows his anger?
…
Thinking of this, Maginot shook her head slightly. In her opinion, Luffy was a little confused.
Ever since the red-haired man sacrificed his arm to save Luffy-kun's life, Luffy-kun has been a little bit dazed...
On weekdays, Shanks is mentioned in almost every three sentences.
Even now, when even the Windmill Village is being forced to relocate by the nobles.
Luffy-kun's mouth is still full of Shanks' good qualities...
At this point, Maginot let out a long sigh. She really understood Luffy-kun so well.
Not every kind of kindness is worth remembering, but for a little person, the contribution made by a big person to the fate of a little person seems to be worthy of being remembered for a lifetime by the little person?
But for some reason, Maginot couldn't help but feel that at this moment.
What the legendary red-haired man did in Windmill Village seemed not as simple as imagined.
Maginot sometimes even thinks that he came here for Luffy-kun's admiration and thanks in the first place?
Although this idea is funny, Maginot can't help but think like this, even when he lost his home and wandered in the wild.
She couldn't help but feel a lot of admiration for the red-haired man.
Fortunately, before she could think about it for too long, the crowd, including Luffy, had already met Sister Dadan, a famous bandit in the mountains near Windmill Village!
Looking at her tall and thick figure, she not only doesn’t look like King Kong Barbie, but she looks like Dadan, the daughter of King Kong Bobbi.
Maginot finally let go of her reverie.
As for Sister Dadan, after learning that almost all the villagers of Windmill Village came to the mountains.
Especially after learning that these villagers were driven away by those damn nobles.
Dadan completely exploded!
After she listened to Schlap's explanation and accepted Village Chief Schlap's decision to lead the villagers to temporarily live in the mountains near Dadan.
Dadan's whole body exploded!
Staring at countless pairs of anxious and expectant eyes, Dadan picked up blacksmith Adi's collar!
"Hey, bastards, you are the neighbor of that old ghost Garp after all!
What's going on? Isn't that guy Garp's name difficult to use?
Even Shanks had been hiding in Windmill Village for a year. Everyone in the navy knew the news, so they didn't care!
How come now, a mere nobleman from Goa Kingdom dares to drive you people to my place to make a living?
!”
After the words fell, Dadan clenched his fist and smashed it against the stone beside him.
When her fist smashed the stone, Dadan could almost guarantee that if that old ghost Garp stood in front of her, her punch would definitely hit Garp in the face!
Who is Garp? He is someone that even the Five Old Stars should respect!
Compared with the Five Old Stars, what are the nobles of Goa Kingdom?
Because he knew the high and low behind everything, Dadan knew better than anyone else that the guy who dared to drive away the villagers from Windmill Village had definitely violated the taboos of many people.
But now….
While desperately promising in his heart, sooner or later, he would give a punch to Garp who couldn't even protect his neighbor.
She gritted her teeth and said to the people in Windmill Village.
"Hey, you guys, I don't have much food here!
Besides, I don’t want to raise idle people here!
Since you want to hide here with me for a while, I will try my best to support you during this period of time.
As for yourselves, hello!
Try to find some work that you can do, and do it with all your might!
If Garp’s name is really hard to use, then you will face too many dangers in the future!”
At this point, Dadan ignored the villagers' answers and went back to her small house, frowning and thinking.
Dadan has already read the newspaper about what Garp lost to Gawain.
Therefore, Dadan will inevitably associate everything recently with the news that Garp lost.
…
…
…
On the other hand, in Windmill Village.
In Staley's eyes, those lowly villagers were all like puppets on strings, tightly controlled by his wise self.
Before, seeing the greedy looks of the villagers, Staley had no idea how many thoughts had passed through his mind!
On the one hand, Staley deeply laments the supremacy of power. After all, Staley at the time did not have the status he has now!
At first, Staley was just the son of an ordinary groom. Even if the groom was the king's groom, he was still just the son of the groom after all!
But later, when Altluk III, Staley's adoptive father, became increasingly helpless towards his son.
Staley’s opportunity has come!
On the one hand, Staley's father was driving a carriage to carry the King of Goa to the forest for hunting.
A group of extremely vicious pirates have their sights set on the king!
In this way, the king suffered a considerable attack, and Staley's father died in this attack.
He became a hero and came into the eyes of the king.
On the other hand, Altluk III, who hunted with the king that day and was rescued, also received help from Father Staley!
It seems to be fate, anyway.
After this experience, after Staley's father was buried honorably by the king as a hero.
A funny idea suddenly occurred to Alteruk III.
He suddenly felt that since his eldest son, his biological son Sabo, had become irredeemable...a fool who had separated from the aristocratic class because of his excessive kindness and foolish belief in freedom.
So, why can't I adopt a child worthy of my own family?
In this way, the then King Altluk III adopted Stali, who had lost his father, into his home.
At that time, Sabo was Staley's nominal brother, but in the eyes of all the nobles, Sabo was the idiot who was fraternizing with the untouchables and spoke of benevolence, justice and morality!
If Sabo had not disappeared from beginning to end, then he might still be able to suppress Staley, his adopted son, with his bloodline heritage.
But Sabo actually went to sea inexplicably!
Even... after he went to sea, he met the Celestial Dragons of the Kingdom of Lingoa...
In short, Staley seems to have been caught up in destiny in some respects.
He has been very smart since he was a child, and even before he was ten years old, he had the desire to compete with Sabo for favor and try to inherit the Altluk family.
But before he could use any means, Sabo sent it himself...
And after he disappeared after Sabo, that is, after Sabo was killed by the Celestial Dragon...
While Staley was honoring Sabo's parents, he planned to kill Sabo's father when he grew up, so as to inherit the future Altluk family.
But he didn't wait until he reached adulthood and decided to start his own plan...
This is now, these past few months.
Grand Duke Altluk III suddenly fell ill...
Staley, who felt seriously ill, was so obsessed with the lake that Altluk III and the King of Goa formed a set of political marriages.
Staley, who has been trying to get the princess recently, doesn't know that it will be about four and a half years in the future.
When Staley's ambition became more and more full, he even wanted to kill the king and princes of Goa Kingdom in an attempt to occupy the throne of Goa Kingdom.
Still before his plan, the king and princes of the Kingdom of Goa fell seriously ill and died one after another, so that he inherited the Kingdom of Goa inexplicably...
In other words, from beginning to end, Staley, the bastard, has been harboring countless bad intentions.
But before he can truly implement his bad intentions, all the guys who stand in front of him will lose the qualification to stop it?
Staley in the future may feel aggrieved, and even Staley now may feel a bit aggrieved.
Before the plans that could demonstrate his abilities were implemented, they were acted upon by inexplicable fate!
You obviously want to do bad things, but in the end you don't even have the qualifications to do bad things.
It was obvious that he had to pay a bloody lesson to get something, but in the end, he got it without even having time to do anything...
It is also for this reason that the future Staley once clamored in Mariegio, saying that he was the son of destiny who was being taken care of by the devil...
This is indeed the case, he may really be a man possessed by the devil.
But what Staley didn't know at this time was that if he, a man who was obsessed with the devil, met the real devil...
So what will happen to him?
…
…
…
Time passed slowly, and seventeen days had passed since Gawain left Shuangyue Village.
Because he had turned around from Xiluobu Village, Gawain took a long detour, causing him to arrive near Windmill Village later than planned.
But for Gawain, it was certainly worth taking a slight detour.
He only had to walk for more than ten days, but Zoro, the absolute deputy of the future Pirate King, had already obediently arrived on his ship!
Even though Gawain was calm enough, he couldn't help but occasionally look at Sauron with a knowing smile during the days when the ship was heading to Windmill Village.
Everyone thought that Gawain's smile was because he discovered an excellent swordsman.
Who would have known that he was laughing because he had taken advantage of fate?
…
At the same time, in Windmill Village.
With the help of more than 300 Four-Handed Clan architects, in just fifteen days, the windmill village that had been torn down not long ago was completely transformed.
At this moment, the original casual style of Windmill Village that revealed the atmosphere of life has completely disappeared.
Instead, a group of nobles led by Staley led the workers to build a hot spring palace!
The reason why it is in the form of a hot spring is because the construction time of a hot spring is more than ten times faster than that of a palace.
Putting the main body of the building on the hot springs and focusing on creating the luxury of the hot springs can make the low palace seem insignificant...
In short, when Staley stood in the former Windmill Village, which is now the Hot Spring Palace, he saw the majestic black bird flag gradually emerging from the sea in the distance.
While Staley kept gritting his teeth in excitement, he spoke in anticipation to everyone under his command, including Her Royal Highness the Princess, who stood silently aside.
"Haha, it looks like Lord Tianlong has arrived!
Poseidon, that is really the largest ship I have ever seen. It is indeed the flagship of the Celestial Dragons!
Someone, please boil the water and make the palace we built come alive!
This is a gift we give to Lord Celestial Dragon. This gift must satisfy Lord Celestial Dragon, otherwise I will commit suicide together with you in front of Lord Celestial Dragon!
!”
When he said this, the people around him suddenly became awe-inspiring, and after a while, the smoke of birds was floating on all the ponds in the hot spring palace.
Feel the heat surrounding your body.
Enjoy the lazy feeling brought by the heat.
Staley nodded with satisfaction, and then looked expectantly at the approaching Blackbird!
Just like the unspeakable past, Staley at this moment always feels that his future will become more exciting and noble because of his current plan.
only…….
Aboard the Black Bird….
Gawain stood at the bow of the ship, reaching out to hold Uta sitting on his shoulders.
At the same time, he pointed in the direction of Windmill Village and said to Sabo and Ace.
"How about it, boys, and Uta.
On this trip, you have finally returned to your homes, while Uta has returned to the place where he played with his friends when he was a child.
It won't be long before you can see the windmill you have been looking forward to, the windmill buried in your memories... the windmill?
Why?!
"
Suddenly, Gawain stared slightly, thinking that he might have seen it wrong!
Or maybe the Black Bird simply went the wrong way!
Because in the place where the windmill village was supposed to be, the huge windmill that was supposed to be a flag-shaped building was actually invisible at this time!
Instead, there are many wisps of mist rising from the birds in the windmill village?!
