Navigation: Comprehension Heaven-Defying, Understanding Eight Gate Escape At The Beginning

Makino Tavern!

"cheers!"

"Wa hahaha......"

The cheerful and lively atmosphere was once again restored in the tavern, with everyone raising glasses and having an ever-present banquet.

At the bar, Luffy and Shanks sat together, next to Uta who said nothing, as if he was angry with him.

Uta was extremely dissatisfied with the fact that she was so scared that she lost strength.

No one bothered her and let her recover on her own.

"Si Guoyi, Luffy! I didn't expect you to have mastered Conqueror's Haki."

Luffy's ability is still vivid in his mind. Shanks was truly shocked that a child of only seven years old mastered Conqueror's Haki so skillfully.

He believed that not even his former captain, the previous Pirate King, Roger, had such a terrifying talent.

"Yeah! It seems that I woke up when I was born."

Luffy recalled the sudden awakening of Conqueror's Haki when he was born.

The Conqueror's he unleashed unconsciously at that time were much more powerful than they are now.

It's a pity that awakening is different from actual mastery.

The power he showed when he awakened meant that he had that potential. As for now, he still had to continue to grow and improve his courage.

When Shanks heard this, a flash of shock flashed in his eyes, and he thought to himself.

"Is he really a born king?!"

There is a big difference between awakening Conqueror's and mastering Conqueror's.

If you want to master Conqueror's to the extent that you want to do it, you need to train over a long period of time.

So after Shanks learned that Luffy had mastered Conqueror's, he guessed that he was a born king.

And it must be Garp's careful guidance that made him grow up so fast.

"Souga! That means your Haki was taught by Mr. Garp. No wonder you can control it so skillfully."

At this time, some pirates nearby also started cheering and sighing.

"As expected of that hero Garp, he was able to train a seven-year-old child to be so powerful."

"That's the hero Garp! The captain who was the boss back then..."

"Hey! Don't talk too much, you drank too much..."

Just as the pirates were making noises, Luffy said something softly.

"No! Grandpa never taught me. Every time he comes back, he leaves after only a few days."

As soon as he finished speaking, the tavern suddenly became extremely quiet.

The pirates' eyes were filled with obvious shock. They looked at Luffy in disbelief and fell into a daze.

Even Shanks was shocked, and his calm mood was once again stirred up by Luffy.

Shanks said in disbelief.

"Luffy, what you mean is that your current strength is all yours..."

Luffy nodded silently.

Suddenly, the expressions on Shanks and everyone in the tavern were even more shocked.

A child who is only seven years old is not only a born king, but he has also mastered Conqueror's Haki without anyone's guidance.

Such a terrifying talent, let alone Shanks, even Garp and Roger may not be able to match it.

Shanks' eyes involuntarily moved to a box on hand.

I started to struggle inside.

Bang!

At this moment, a loud noise suddenly came from the door.

Everyone followed the sound and saw that the door of the tavern was kicked open.

A man with his hair tied in a bun and a cross scar above his right eye walked in with a group of young men.

Luffy naturally recognized the person.

The legendary bandit king who killed 56 emperors, Sig.

"excuse me!"

Sig uttered a sentence indifferently, and then glanced at the pirate in the tavern.

He immediately let out a contemptuous snort and continued.

"Are these the so-called pirates? They all have stupid faces."

Seeing a guest coming, Makino immediately greeted him. Even though the visitor was unkind and kicked down the door of the tavern, he still remained polite.

"welcome!"

Sig had already arrived at the bar and was standing on the other side of Shanks.

"We are bandits, but we are not here to cause trouble."

"Sell us the wine quickly. We need about 10 barrels."

Makino responded with an apology.

"Sorry, all the wine has just been sold out."

Sig glanced at the wine glasses on the pirate tables around him and pretended to be confused.

"Isn't that weird?! Are these pirates drinking boiled water?"

Makino continued to explain patiently.

"Because the wine sold now is all."

When Sige heard this, he frowned and became very angry.

When Shanks saw this, he started to smooth things over from the side.

"This is really embarrassing!"

"It seems we drank all the wine here, sorry!"

"If you don't mind, this bottle is for you. It hasn't been opened yet."

Shanks handed over an unopened bottle of wine.

Sig slowly raised his hand, making a gesture to pick it up.

But to everyone's surprise, Sig suddenly clenched his fist and smashed the bottle in Shanks' hand with one punch.

"Laozi is a prisoner with a bounty of 8 million Baileys! A bottle of wine is not enough for me to rinse my mouth. Don't underestimate me."

Seeing this scene, Uta, who had been silent all this time, gritted his teeth and his eyes were filled with anger.

As for Shanks, his body was soaked with wine, but he didn't seem to care at all.

Instead, he looked at the equally wet floor and the glass shards all over the floor, and said apologetically to Makino.

"The floor is wet. I'm sorry, Ms. Makino. Do you have a rag?"

As Shanks said this, he squatted down and cleaned up the broken glass on the ground.

Seeing this, Makino hurriedly ran out of the bar.

"I'll just come."

But at this moment, Sig suddenly pulled out the saber from his waist, and with a sweep, smashed the plate and wine glass in front of Shanks to the ground.

"It seems that you like cleaning very much, so you can wipe enough!"

Shanks let himself get wet from the drink and sat on the ground without saying a word.

Seeing this, Sig became even more contemptuous, and then said to the younger brothers behind him.

"It's boring without wine. Let's go."

Before going out, Sig didn't forget to taunt the surrounding pirates again.

"Goodbye, you losers!"

After all the bandits left, one remained silent and the pirates who remained silent suddenly burst into laughter.

"Wow hahaha! The boss is really being bullied so badly!"

"It's so embarrassing!"

Shanks also opened his mouth and laughed, looking like he didn't care at all.

Seeing the strange behavior of these pirates, Uta, who had been holding back his anger, finally burst out.

"Why are you still laughing? Don't you think it's embarrassing?"

"You can defeat that kind of bandit easily, right?!"

"Shanks, why don't you fight back?"

Uta has been sailing on the sea with the Red Hair Pirates for seven years since she was picked up by Shanks at the age of two.

For seven years, they have been a fearsome presence for other pirates wherever they go.

When have you ever been so angry?

So when she saw her father, Shanks, being bullied like this for the first time, Uta couldn't bear it anymore.

Shanks comforted Uta gently.

"It's just that I got drunk, don't worry about it at all!"

Uta still looked confused and angry.

"Don't be like those bandits, Uta. Well... well... well... they're just a bunch of frogs in a well."

The sound of Luffy talking while eating came from behind.

Meanwhile, in Luffy's mind.

"Your understanding is heaven-defying. Through personal experience, your courage is improved."

"Your courage is increased, and your Conqueror's Haki is strengthened."

Conqueror's Haki has been strengthened again.

Luffy was secretly happy.

Shanks looked surprised when he heard Luffy's words.

"That's right, Uta! Listen to what Luffy said..."

While speaking, Shanks turned back, preparing to give Luffy a grateful look.

But when he saw what Luffy was eating, Shanks was shocked.

"What are you eating, Luffy?!"

At this moment, Luffy was holding a purple fruit with strange lines in his hand, eating it with big mouthfuls.

After hearing Shanks' question, Luffy pretended not to know.

"What do you mean?! I looked delicious, so I couldn't help but eat it."

"But after eating it, I realized that this fruit is really not that unpalatable!"

Having said that, Luffy still finished it.

Can't waste it.

"That's not an ordinary fruit, it's the Rubber Fruit that turns people into rubber people."

Shanks explained loudly.

He subconsciously wanted to rush over and ask Luffy to spit out the fruit, but suddenly he thought of the legendary saying.

Devil Fruit will consciously search for its owner.

Thinking of the inspection of Luffy these days, Shanks suddenly felt relieved.

Luffy may be the person he has been looking for.
