"Haha... I will tell you more about them later. Till then just remember this term." Luffy said.

Ann and Sabo nodded their heads

"The third and last form of Haki is something unique as it was not something that can be learned. One is born with this power. There is no other way to actually gain it aside from that. It is called Conqueror's Haki or the color of the Supreme King."

"Ehh? Do you have it?" Ann asked quickly as she wanted to see it.

Luffy smiled mysteriously and shrugged his shoulders. "Who knows? At least for now, I do not have it."

"Oh," Ann was dejected by his refusal.

"No need to be so low. I heard that having a strong bloodline or parents might result in the children having this Haki. So, who knows maybe we will have it or..."

Ann furrowed her brows as she stared at Luffy. For some reason, she felt that Luffy might be aware of her lineage.

But she quickly shook her head since aside from Grandpa, she had only ever told it to Sabo who promised to keep it a secret.

Luffy smiled as he could feel her emotions were in turmoil because of his words. He then told them to focus on the training so they could actually gain the Haki.

When Luffy told them the method to train Observation Haki, he could see that Sabo and Ann looked at each other with a competitive spirit.

Luffy left them in charge of their training since they could take turns wearing blindfolds while the other would hit the other party.

Maybe the competitive spirit would help them awaken their Haki quickly.

Luffy decided to return to the Foosha Village since the day of Shanks's arrival was drawing closer and the red-haired captain could appear at any moment.

When he arrived close to the village, he could hear the gasps and shocking voices of the villagers.

He furrowed his brows and expanded his Haki to the fullest, realizing the cause behind it. His eyes sparkled with a bright light as he used Soru to cover the distance quickly.

When he arrived at the port, he saw a big pirate ship approaching the island. Looking at the pirate flag, Luffy confirmed that it was really the Red Haired Pirates.

The red-haired pirate ship was quite large and well-decorated. The ship had a figure of a dragon built with fine details and looked quite fierce. The vessel carried a bunch of palm trees on board.

While he was observing the ship, a figure appeared in his view.

It was a young child, a little girl who was standing at the port.

She had bright purple eyes which were looking around curiously. But the most distinct feature was her hair. She had two colors of hair, long hair that was white on her left side and red on her right; the colors were perfectly separated at the middle of her scalp. Her hair was arranged into two long ponytails with two circular braids at the end; these circular braids were also seen at the top of her head. Her left eye was shrouded by her white hair.

The girl might have felt his gaze as she moved over to him.

The two of them suddenly stared at each other for a few seconds.

Luffy could a bright light flashing in those big purple eyes and then a red flush graced her cheeks.

'What the hell!'

Luffy almost screamed in his heart as he stared at Uta in shock.

'Fuck! Do not tell me...'

A bad feeling welled up in his heart and he quickly asked.

"Hey, are you Pirates?"

Uta was slightly startled by the sudden questioning of the young man and she woke up from that dazed state.

"Y-Yeah. We are the Red Hair Pirates!" She put her hands on her hips and declared proudly.

She looked at Luffy smugly and asked. "Do you have opinions?"

Luffy smiled and shook his head. "Nope. I just want to talk with your captain."

Uta looked at Luffy's smile and felt her heart beating faster. She shook her head and said. "My dad? If you have anything to say just say it to me."

"Sorry, but I will only talk with the captain. Call him out!" Luffy declared as he grinned and stared at Uta.

Uta was again in a daze, feeling her cheeks turning hot.

The atmosphere between them was slightly tense and Luffy had no idea how to take it since he was not a fool like original Luffy.

However, just when he was feeling lost, Shanks appeared for his rescue. He stepped from behind Uta and patted her head. He smiled at Luffy and asked.

"I am the captain of this ship. What do you want to say to me, young man?"

Luffy smiled and said seriously. "You can stay here but don't mess around. I will keep an eye on you. If you do something dangerous then..."

"Hahaha... what a brave sheriff! I will keep it in my mind." Shanks laughed happily and played along with Luffy.

The ship docked at the port and slowly the Pirates climbed down.

Luffy carefully observed them and recognized the important members.

"Hey, what's your name?" Uta walked over to him and asked.

Luffy crossed his arm in front of his chest and said proudly. "Luffy. My name is Monkey D. Luffy!"

Shanks raised an eyebrow as he realized that the young man was in front of him.

Not only him but the other senior members also caught it and smiled at each other.

Shanks could not help but smile as he said. "You have a good name. I can call you Luffy, right?"

Luffy nodded his head.

"Then Luffy, can you tell me where we can find a place to eat something?" Shanks asked.

Luffy narrowed his eyes and rather than answering his question, asked instead.

"First, do you guys have money, or do you all want to be freeloaders?"

"Uh?" Shanks and his crew were left speechless by Luffy's question and looked at each other before Shanks shook his head and laughed.

"Of course, we have money. We are Pirates. We have lots of treasures."

"Okay. Come with me. And remember, I have my eyes on you. If you mess around, don't blame me for being rude." Luffy glared at Shanks and reminded him again before he signaled them to follow him.
