"Heh... Bah! ”

As soon as Luffy was put down by Karp, he instantly felt a thick malice coming from behind him, and hurriedly pulled out to dodge.

A lump of saliva fell to the ground in the direction he was before, and if he hadn't dodged in time, he could have imagined what would have happened to Luffy.

"It's so dangerous, but I'm glad I reacted fast enough!"

Luffy sweated in his heart, how disgusting it would be if he was hit.

Looking up, Luffy saw a little boy sitting on the carcass of a bison staring at him.

Dark and deep phoenix eyes, black hair, naked upper body, a pair of black shorts, a pair of ordinary canvas shoes, holding a slender iron rod, a strong body, a handsome face, but a thick bandage on the forehead, with a resentful look, as if there is a blood feud with the world.

"Hey! There's something wrong with you, right?" Even though Luffy once spent two rolls of toilet paper crying for Ace, he would never tolerate his spit on himself!

"Cut!" Although he was a little surprised by Luffy's reaction speed, Ace's coldness made him never bother to say a word to anyone other than Sabo.

Hearing the noise, Dardan and Karp turned their heads.

"Yo, you're back, Ace." Karp greeted him calmly like a family member who saw him every day.

After speaking, he said to Luffy's head with a "bang": "That's Ace, three years older than you."

From today onwards, you will be living with them, so get along well! ”

Dadan was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said, "Huh? Is this settled???

Karp raised his fist, revealing the green tendons on his wrist and said, "Do you have any opinions?"

"Nope!"

............

Colpo Hill, the House of Dadan.

After Karp left, the crowd sat around a boiling pot.

The pot was boiling the bison that Ace had just called.

"I hate bandits." Luffy looked at the iron pot and suddenly said coldly.

In fact, Luffy also knew that this disgust should not extend to the Dadan family.

After all, in the original book, Dadan really took care of Luffy and Ace as a mother.

It may be that I have been wanting to kill the bandits too much recently, and I have left my subconscious. ’

Luffy explained his strange thoughts in his mind.

Dadan's face was pale, and he broke his chopsticks in annoyance, straightened up and yelled, "Stinky little ghost! You shut up!!

Do you think we're willing to take in a little imp like you!! ”

The bandits on one side hurriedly grabbed Dadan, for fear that Dadan would rush up and beat Luffy violently, although not necessarily who would beat whom.

Ace didn't say anything on the side, and ate the meat on his own.

Luffy looked at the furious Dadan, and then at the silent Ace, and suddenly stood up and said, "I'm tired, I'm going to rest!" ”

After speaking, he didn't care about the feelings of others, stood up, and walked into the house.

"Hey!! It's daylight! Dadan shouted outside.

I found a room that looked like a bedroom, closed the door, and lay down on the bed, regardless of what Dadan was complaining about angrily outside.

"Let's take Zoro here in a few days when grandpa leaves..."Luffy thought and closed his eyes, but he didn't expect that it hadn't been a minute before he actually fell asleep.

Night.

The Dardans have rested.

Ace returned to the house tired, lay down and was about to rest.

Suddenly, his eyes widened, and he turned on his side, looking at the corner of the room with a wary expression.

"It's worthy of Ace, I feel so keen." With a faint smile, Luffy walked out of the corner.

"What do you want to do?" Ace was still vigilant and did not relax in the slightest.

In his perception, there was nothing there, but suddenly a breath flashed away.

Looking at Luffy who appeared from the shadows, Ace knew that this aura was also deliberately released by Luffy.

Luffy opened his mouth wide and gritted his teeth and laughed, "Hahaha... I just want to be friends with you, and I forgive you for spitting on me. ”

As he spoke, Luffy actually stretched out his hand and waited for Ace to come over and shake hands.

"Boring..."After discovering that Luffy had no malicious intent, Ace didn't want to care about him anymore.

No matter how well he can hide it, what does it have to do with him, he has more important things to worry about.

Seeing that Ace didn't want to deal with him, Luffy didn't feel embarrassed, withdrew his hand, and walked alone into the mountains, ready to catch two beasts and fight tooth sacrifices.

One by one, the stars disappeared from the cloud-covered blue sky, leaving only the remnants of the last quarter moon.

The sky gradually lit up, and at this time, it seemed that someone had smeared a layer of pink on the pale cyan sky, and countless golden lights were hidden under the pink.

Time passed day by day.

Luffy, like Ace, fights back a beast every day, and Dadan is in charge of cooking.

On this day, Luffy reckoned that Karp should have left Windmill Town.

Relying on the speed of his feet, in less than half an hour, Luffy ran back to Windmill Town.

Luffy's biggest worry, of course, is the injury that has not healed Sister Magino.

When I arrive at Magino's tavern, I find that the tavern is already open.

As soon as he entered the door, Luffy saw Magino, whose face was still slightly red and swollen, cleaning.

"Sister Magino! I'm here to help you, you can rest quickly! Luffy grabbed the broom and started cleaning.

Magino stared blankly at Luffy and suddenly snorted.

Luffy glanced at Magino with some confusion.

"You really haven't changed at all, Luffy." Magino said as he looked at Luffy dotingly.

Luffy lowered his head and said with some guilt while working, "I'm sorry, Sister Magino, I killed someone... Actually, I don't want you to see me kill people......"

Magino shook her head and said to Luffy, "No, Luffy.

I was wrong, and I shouldn't have interfered with your decision.

Do what you want...

Sister Magino will always have your back! ”

"Thank you, Sister Magino."

"Wait a minute, I'll go and get you the milk in the back."

Even though Luffy was fostered at Dadan's house, Magino still habitually kept some fresh milk every day and gave Luffy to drink when Luffy returned.

In Windmill Town, another little time to stay.

Luffy carried Zoro on his back, took his luggage, waved goodbye to Magino, and set out on the road back to Mount Corpo.

Not to mention, Zoro has really grown a lot taller this year, Luffy is carrying him, and his calves are still rubbing on the ground.

Fortunately, Luffy prepared a lot of clothes in Rogue Town, enough for him and Zoro to wear until adulthood.

The sky was a deep red haze, reflected in the forest, integrating the trees into a maple leaf-like red.

The sunset sky is behind Luffy and Zoro, and the afterglow of the setting sun flickers in the distance.

Dusk, with its swift steps, quietly, from the other side of the mountain, from the end of the sky.
