Chapter 255: One Piece is over
Despite the direction of Eagle Eye, it is not easy to find Shanks.
Because there is only one boat, Shanks often wanders the sea, and is simply a person with no fixed place, much like Whitebeard.
Fortunately, although Shanks's chassis is small, there are also many members who can contact Shanks.
After searching for more than ten days, Leo found the place where Shanks was.
"Oh? It's Leo, but it's been a long time! Shanks was surprised to see Leo, who, although in the limelight, seemed to have nothing to do with him.
For now, their evaluation of Leo is very direct, that is, he has a strong purpose in doing things.
"Come, drink!" Shanks poured wine for Leo, not caring about his status as the Four Emperors.
This attitude is destined to make Shanks very popular, and there is no shelf, after all, even in the face of aggressive bandits, he was willing to take out a bottle of wine that he didn't drink.
Leo was not polite, and directly picked up the wine and drank it.
"Shanks, look who I'm bringing here!"
didn't talk about the matter directly, Leo directly pulled Luffy over.
Luffy looked blankly at Shanks and a group of red-haired pirate cadres who were somewhat familiar.
Seeing Luffy, those cadres were very happy, and they all had to pick up Luffy and tease Luffy.
Luffy was also made to giggle constantly by the group of cadres, and he looked happy.
However, the only one present who was not happy was Shanks, on the contrary, Shanks's face was gloomy.
Gloomy and terrible.
Ben Beckman, who had always been calm, was a little surprised when he looked at Shanks's expression, because he had never seen Shanks angry in all these years.
Leo didn't seem to see Shanks' anger, but instead dragged Luffy over: "The Shanks you want to see is here!" ”
Leo pointed at Shanks and said to Luffy.
Seeing Shanks, Luffy was a little embarrassed because he hadn't forgotten his promise.
Shanks quickly reined in his anger and said to Luffy with a somewhat ugly smile, "Luffy, why are you here?" ”
Luffy said a little shyly, "It's Leola who got on the boat and let me do chores on his boat!" But Shanks, I still remember that I was a pirate! ”
Shanks' face became more and more weird when he heard Luffy's words.
It's not good to say anything to Luffy, just staring at Leo: "Leo, what do you mean by that?" ”
What Shanks can value the most is the Straw Hat Inheritance, he took this straw hat from Roger and gave it to Luffy instead, he gambled his arm to make Luffy firm in his belief and fight to become the King of the Pirates.
Now, it's a joke.
"Oh, this is actually what Old Man Karp asked me to do!" Leo Tian shamelessly threw everything on Karp's head.
"He said his grandson took your stuff, so let him give it back to you!"
Shanks's face became even more weird, is it so unobtrusive?
"Luffy!" Leo stood up to Luffy. "I remember you made a promise with Shanks that you would return the straw hat to Shanks when you saw him! Do you remember now? ”
"Of course I do!" Luffy said loudly.
The promise that started with this manga has always been Luffy's motivation to move forward, even more so than the goal of finding ONE PIECE.
In the original plot, in order to fulfill this promise, Shanks and Luffy were not allowed to meet even in the top war, and it seems that they intend to keep this promise at the end.
And today, the pirates are over, because Luffy has already met Shanks.
"Just remember!" Leo spoke quickly. "Now that you've seen Shanks, you should give him back the Straw Hat! It's a man's promise, Luffy, you won't forget it! ”
Luffy opened his mouth, as if he felt that something was wrong, but he didn't know where it was.
Because no matter what the straw hat is, but if you say goodbye, you will change the straw hat.
"Luffy quickly return it to Shanks, you've fulfilled your promise!"
Luffy had no choice but to slowly take off the straw hat and hand it over to Shanks.
Shanks is about to explode, it's just a straw hat, do you really think he cares about this?
"Leo, you're going too far!" Shanks finally got angry, he gambled on his right hand, didn't he just want Luffy to go to sea and become the king of the pirates, now that the promise is over, can Luffy still be firm in his beliefs?
Of course, Leo was not afraid, but said: "No way, Luffy is the grandson of Old Man Karp, and Old Man Karp thinks it's not good for Luffy to take your things, so let him give it back to you!" Nothing wrong with it, right? ”
No...... What a ghost!
You don't pretend to be confused there, this is not a straw hat but a belief and sustenance.
"Luffy is still stunned, give it back to Shanks! As for what you said about going to sea to be a pirate, you haven't forgotten me, and I haven't forgotten it, and you said that you can cultivate hard in the past few years, and when you are seventeen years old, you can go to sea by yourself! ”
Leo quickly persuaded, and it seemed that not only Luffy was persuaded but also Zai to appease Shanks.
"After you go to sea at the age of seventeen, how do you become a pirate, how do you find a partner, or pursue the ONE PIECE you want or freedom, I won't interfere!"
Hearing Leo's words, Luffy stopped talking, he just felt that something was wrong, but it was impossible to expect a ten-year-old to think so much.
What's more, Luffy is still a very big deal.
Hearing Leo's words, Luffy suddenly showed a smile: "Yes, Shanks, then the straw hat will be returned to you first!" When I was seventeen years old, I went back to sea to be a pirate, and I have always been a pirate, because One Piece is the freest person! ”
Shanks sighed helplessly, and could only end up with the straw hat that Luffy handed over and put on his head.
Shanks was a little confused, and he didn't know how it could have become like this.
What about the inheritance of the straw hat, is this still the inheritance of the straw hat?
Luffy had already handed over the straw hat, and it was impossible for him not to, at this moment, Shanks, who was wearing the straw hat, stood in front of Luffy again.
"Okay, then you have to grow up quickly, I'll wait for you to become the freest One Piece!"
After Shanks finished speaking, he just felt that this sentence was very dry.
Luffy didn't think about it that much, he just smiled and said, "Okay, I'll definitely become One Piece!" ”
Shanks doesn't think it's safe to rely on a word, but in the face of a ten-year-old, can you expect him to swear?
Eventually, Shanks' mouth opened and closed, unable to say anything.
Leo interjected at this time: "Don't worry, I won't stop Luffy from becoming a pirate, after all, this is his freedom!" ”
Shanks was so comforted by Leo that he could only give up, after all, everything was like this, what else could he say.
"Luffy, you must become the king of the pirates!" Shanks snapped.
