This tavern sells not only wine but also food. It's just a pity that the wine is out now. Otherwise, Shanks could organize a banquet here.

"By the way, Mr. Bit, what did you say Captain Roger was once thrown with a drink on his head? Can you tell us about it?"

The wine is gone, but now they don't need to spice it up. The atmosphere was already very warm.

There was nothing to hide from this kind of thing, and without hesitation, Bit told Shanks what happened to them when they were in Gaya.

If Roger hadn't stopped him, Bit would have cut the man down a long time ago. However, after Roger stopped him, the man killed himself, angering Van Pika, who was still cut by him.

"Captain Roger deserves to be Captain Roger. Shanks listened to Bit's story with admiration.

Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Luffy, who was eating a lot. He was shocked. "Hey, Luffy, spit it out, don't eat it, spit it out!"

He went straight over the bit, and the reward fee was lifted upside down, tugging hard at his legs. However, Luffy's legs are stretched. His head hit the ground.

Luffy, who hit his head on the floor, looked confused. His body...... This feeling...... How strange!

"Do you know what you ate? You ate the Devil Fruit! You won't be able to swim anymore, you know? Now your body has become rubber! You've become a rubber man!"

Shanks knocked Luffy down one by one, grabbing him by the collar with a look of eagerness. However, Luffy's neck was stretched again. His body slowly slid down, and his feet fell to the ground.

Nami on the side didn't hold back and burst out laughing. "Hey, you're so funny!"

"Ah...... Huh?" Luffy, who looked confused, looked blankly at Shanks, who was carrying him. He didn't know anything! He just ate a fruit, ......?

Shanks put Luffy on the ground with a helpless expression. He rubbed his temples with a headache. Luffy, this idiot!

……

After a lot of effort, Shanks finally explained to Luffy what his situation was with Ben Beckman's help.

However, Luffy seems to have accepted the accident that happened to him. "It's okay! Even if I can't swim anymore, I'll still go to sea and be a pirate!"

Luffy stood on the stool again with an excited expression, and he looked at Shanks with a confident expression. "My fists are as powerful as guns!"

Apparently, Shanks has also accepted this ending. No way, no acceptance! Luffy has already eaten the Devil Fruit.

Now, Shanks has shifted his target. He was looking at Nami who was silently silent, and at first glance he was Nami with a cold snort.

"Wha! Little Nami, did you miss me!" Shanks pulled his face to Nami and asked her with a laugh.

However, Nami just snorted coldly and turned around with her juice and stopped looking at him.

Shanks persevered and turned to Nami's face again, looked at him with a smile on his face, and asked again: "Does little Nami miss me?"

Nami also turned another direction. This time she snorted coldly and said, "Hmph! I don't talk to liars!"

Shanks looked embarrassed. However, his companions began to make a fuss again.

Lakilu, who was holding a large ham in his hand and gnawing on it, took the lead in taunting: "Hahahaha!!! The captain is disgusted by the little lady!!"

Shanks touched his nose in embarrassment. It's true that he is not authentic. But what can he do? He's helpless! He can't really take Nami to Rogue Town!

Just as Shanks apologized to Nami with an embarrassed expression, Bit walked over to Jesus, who was grinning and gossiping with the person next to him.

"Come out and talk to me, Jesus. I'm mainly here for you. With that, Bit turned and walked out of the tavern.

Jesus put down the cup in his hand and followed Bit out. Bit is Shanks' elder, and he can still be trusted.

Outside the tavern. Bit simply told him what he had gotten in the village of Sirob. After that, Bit returned to the tavern.

As for what choice Jesusb would have made after learning the news, Bit didn't bother to ask. He also didn't ask about the position.

After a few moments, Jesus walked in with a gloomy face. The exact opposite of the elation on his face when he went out.

"What's the matter, Jesus Cloth?" said Ben Beckman, noticing the expression on Jesus Cloth.

"My wife is very ill and dying, and I want to go back and see her. Jesus said with a heavy face.

As soon as he spoke, the entire tavern fell silent. Shanks and his gang are not weak.

So, though it was still noisy in the tavern, and though Jesus' voice was not loud, they all heard it.

"Then let's go to Sirob Village. Anyway, it's all drunk. It will take another five days to get it over. ”

Shanks said as he stood up with a grin. He stretched, thanked the tavern proprietress Magino for taking care of her for the past few days, and walked out with the people.

"By the way, Mr. Bit, are you going?" Shanks suddenly remembered as he walked to the door, and asked.

"Ah, I'm not going. This kid named Luffy who ate your rubber fruit is quite interesting, I'll stay here for a few days. ”

Shanks nodded, turned and walked out of the tavern. He was followed by Ben Beckman, then Jesus, then Lakiru......

Bit sat on the stool and drank the juice quietly, quietly watching the group leave.

"I remember that Luffy's trouble with the bandits again was when the bandits came to the tavern to drink...... In that case, Shanks and the others should be able to get back on time......"

"Hey, uncle, who are you, why does Shanks seem to respect you so much? Luffy asked, tilting his head to look at Bit.

"Oh, you can even tell Shanks how respectful he is for me, isn't it, little ghost. Bit patted Luffy's head and said with a smile.

"Magino told me that when you call a man Mr. Respect, for example, Magino always calls Shanks 'Mr. Captain'. ”

Saying this, Luffy diverted his attention, he looked at Nami, who was holding the juice and drinking it slowly, grinning and grinning:

"My name is Luffy, Monchi? D. Luffy, who are you?"

"I'm so stupid that I don't want to know a big idiot who eats other people's food. ”
