Chapter 33: Long time no see
Although he had made up his mind to rub Zoro on the ground the next time he saw him, he decided to explore his background first.
As the so-called hometown is more timid, when he gets closer to the dock of Windmill Village, even if his memory has been lost, Sabo still has a strange feeling in his heart.
Saab and Kerra did not make much of a fuss about this home-seeking trip, and after docking, Saab was even a little overwhelmed for a while, standing on the side of the boat and looking at the quiet and peaceful windmill village.
The feeling of déjà vu grew stronger, and Sabo's heartbeat gradually accelerated. Kerra watched from the sidelines, and that ever-optimistic guy could have such an expression.
"Hey little brother, why are you stunned here, aren't you going to go shopping?" When one of the guards saw the two of them standing motionless, he stepped forward to talk to them out of curiosity.
Saab and Kerra have gotten along well with the crew of the passenger ship these days, often getting together to talk, and showing admiration when the guards brag and fart, although Saab has experienced many scenes that are bigger than they say, but still give these guards enough face.
So there was a scene where the guards stepped forward to talk.
Sabo shook his head and smiled, "Aren't I admiring this village, I'll go for a walk later." ”
The guard glanced at Kerra and gave Sabo a cheering look, before humming a little tune and leaving.
Kerr LSBO didn't get the guard brother's eyes, but he finally decided to go to the windmill village first, greeted Kerra, and jumped off the boat with his hat.
"Inexplicable." Kerra muttered and jumped out of the boat after Sabo.
It was noon, there were not many pedestrians on the streets of Windmill Village, and Sabo and Kella did not say that they wanted to wander around Windmill Village first, but were going to find a restaurant to satisfy their cravings.
"Nothing has changed." The eyes under the brim of Sabo's hat looked around the windmill village and muttered softly.
Kerrah: "Well, what? ”
Shaking his head, Sabo continued to walk in front of him, and he didn't need to ask anyone for directions or use a map, but he found a small but lively tavern with a sign that said "PARTYS BAR".
It's like an animal following its instincts.
"Haha, look at who this is, isn't this our future One Piece, why aren't you fighting with the tiger on the mountain today?"
"Tsk, he should have been beaten up like this, look at this little face."
"Hehe, Ace's kid has already gone to sea, and if you don't work hard, you'll be left behind."
As soon as he reached the door of the tavern, Sabo heard some teasing voices coming from inside.
One Piece of the future? Ace? Why does it feel so familiar?
Sabo was about to push the door open when he heard a young man's vague words.
"Hmph, that tiger... Chew... It's not been mine for a long time... Uh-huh... Opponents, and... Chew... I'm hurting this with a stinky old man... Chew... Fights and fights! In the tavern, a thin boy in a red shirt with a straw hat around his neck was sitting on a chair, burying his head in his meal, and defending his innocence while eating.
"Stinky boy, who do you say is the stinky old man?" Duang slammed an iron fist on the young man's head, and the extremely strong white-haired old man glared at his grandson and asked loudly.
"Haha, this grandfather and grandson have started again." Seeing this scene, everyone in the tavern began to laugh again.
Behind the counter, the tavern lady in a yellow checkered headscarf propped her hands on the counter, looking at Hu Ding of the grandfather and grandson, and a gentle smile appeared on her beautiful face.
She has been watching this picture for more than ten years, and she will never get tired of it. It's a pity that there is only one of the three little guys who always got together to mess around back then.
"Okay Luffy, don't always quarrel with your grandfather, eat first, fill your stomach before you have the strength to take revenge." Well, this is also a master who is not too much of a problem.
The child of fate named Luffy saw the proprietress speak, and did not continue to spray with his old man, but asked, "Magino, has there been any news of Ace in the newspaper recently, he must have become a very powerful pirate after going out for so long, right?" ”
Before Magino could reply, Karp on the side had already covered his face and sighed. Thinking that he is a dignified naval hero, Vice Admiral Karp, his son defected to the navy and ran to make a revolution, and his grandson also aspired to be a pirate one by one, but none of them were willing to inherit his mantle and become a glorious naval soldier.
Magino patted Cap's strong arm for comfort, then took out a few newspapers from under the counter and handed them to Luffy: "There is no news of Ace yet, but recently there has been a very powerful pirate hunter who has defeated all the pirates in the East China Sea." ”
During this time, Luffy has been practicing in the mountains with Cap, and he has no idea what has happened at sea recently, and Magino just happened to tell him about it.
"Oh yes, let me see." Luffy was about to get the newspaper when he heard this, but Karp grabbed it before he did.
"Stinky old man, what are you doing?" Luffy glared angrily, but Karp just glanced at his grandson and opened the newspaper with a smile, wanting to see what kind of young talent had emerged in the East China Sea, and whether he could be pulled into the navy to inherit his sweetness...... Ahem, pull in the navy to contribute to the cause of justice.
Luffy was angry but reached out to grab it, and Karp parried Luffy's limp attack with one free hand, staring intently at the news about Zoro.
The interaction between the grandfather and grandson was seen by everyone, and the house was full of laughter.
And just as there was a commotion in the tavern, a strange man in a top hat pushed open the door of the tavern and walked in, instantly attracting everyone's attention.
This gentleman is dressed as a gentleman, and there is a female companion behind him, isn't it a noble child from nowhere, why did he come to this tavern?
Magino was not particularly surprised, and after being stunned for a moment, he greeted warmly: "Hello, do you want to eat something?" ”
Sabo didn't speak after entering the door, just stared straight at the grandfather and grandson who were still playing in front of the counter, looking at the teenager who seemed to have never changed except for his height, and his sleeping memory was gradually awakened.
Because it was with the light on his back, the people in the tavern didn't see Sabo's appearance clearly for the first time, and when they saw Sabo coming in, they didn't speak, and they thought that this noble boy was frightened by the commotion in front of him, and couldn't help but chuckle.
"Hehe, this aristocratic brother can't do it."
"It's just that they probably haven't seen such a lively scene when they have a banquet."
Sabo ignored the discussions of the drinkers, because at this time, there were only three people in front of the counter in his eyes.
"Sabo, what's wrong with you?" Seeing that Sabo was motionless, Kerra couldn't help but nudge his arm lightly and asked with concern.
Sabo shook his head and walked forward, his usually indifferent eyes gradually becoming a little excited under the wide brim of his hat.
With Sabo's movement, Magino finally saw the comer's face clearly, the originally calm smile slowly stiffened, an incredible look appeared on his face, and his bright eyes gradually became moist.
At this time, Luffy noticed that someone was approaching and finally stopped messing with Karp, and turned his head to see who it was, and dared not to reply to Magino's words.
It was this turn that in an instant, Luffy's jaw fell to the ground.
Well, it really fell to the ground.
Luffy's eyes widened, and his tongue trembled: "Sasa Sasa Sasa...... Saab?! ”
The index finger of his left hand lifted the brim of his hat, and Sabo showed a big smile: "Luffy, it's okay to be gone." ”
