An hour later.

East China Sea, a village, a room.

At this time, the house of the head of the windmill village was surrounded by villagers.

"Grandpa the village chief, I don't seem to be able to go to sea today..."

The group of villagers looked at Luffy with a somewhat lost expression, and they wanted to comfort him one by one, but they didn't know where to comfort him.

"Humph!"

The village chief snorted and glanced at Luffy, although he said that this guy was a shame in the village and actually wanted to become a pirate, but he was actually quite worried about Luffy in his heart.

This kid has a good nature, but he was spoiled by the red-haired bastard.

Thinking of this, he glanced sideways at a villager behind him, and the villager instantly understood the village chief's intentions.

"cough~cough~"

The villager coughed lightly, and after attracting Luffy's attention, he opened his mouth to persuade him.

"Luffy, it's the same if you go to sea in two days."

Luffy looked up at the villager and said in a somewhat lost tone.

"But today is my 17th birthday, and we have made an appointment to go to sea at the age of 17."

Hearing Luffy's somewhat lost tone, the villager rubbed his chin and muttered quietly.

"If my memory is correct, it seems that there was a kid who went to sea three years ago, but he was bombed by warships in turn, and he went out several days late."

"Huh??"

Luffy also recalls the scene when Ace went to sea in his mind.

Was he still eating meat at the Magino Tavern?

Ace did stay in the village for a while after his birthday.

Just as he was thinking, he heard a creak, and the door was opened from the outside.

Everyone in the room turned their heads to look at the open door, and when they saw that it was Magino, the villagers breathed a sigh of relief, they were afraid that the navy was coming.

Immediately after, the group of villagers asked.

"Magino, what about the navy you took with you??"

"That's right, the warship in the port outside said it was escorting the navy bigwig, but the lord was led to his house as soon as he got off the ship.

Do you know each other? ”

Hearing the chatter of the villagers, the head of Windmill Village stood up and looked at Magino and asked.

"Magino, where's that guy?"

"Huh!"

Magino looked the village chief up and down, a sneer came out of his mouth, and his tone was unhurried.

"Is the village chief's grandfather planning to discuss the matter of the limited-edition magazine with that navy?"

Rise!

The village chief's old face turned red directly, he didn't deliberately ignore the guy's magazine at the time, but he forgot about it for a while, and when he remembered it later, he was reluctant to pay for the delivery, and then it has been delayed until now.

That bastard actually ruined his image in the eyes of the villagers.

Shaking his head vigorously, he looked up at the roof, the corner of his eye constantly skimming towards Magino, and whispered in a low voice.

"The old man is an upright man, and he can't rub the sand of sin in his eyes.

Even Luffy went to sea to become a pirate, and was regarded as a shame in the village by the old man... Old..."

"Village chief and grandfather, don't talk about it!"

Magino pouted at him, then walked up to Luffy and touched his head.

"Luffy, don't worry, you will definitely go to sea!"

Suck! Suck!

Luffy sniffed hard, looked at the Magino sister in front of him, who had taken care of him since he was a child, and said in a somewhat lost tone.

"I want to go to sea today... I still want to eat meat..."

Meat?

Magino shook her head as she thought of Asuka who was cooking for herself at home.

I don't know why that Asuka guy wants to show off his cooking skills, but he definitely can't let Luffy go to his house today.

In case he is caught, it is estimated that Luffy may not be able to go out to sea as a pirate.

Thinking of this, she stretched out her hand and pointed to the village chief who was still looking up at the roof, and said to Luffy.

"Luffy, there are a lot of delicious foods in the village chief's house, you can eat a little at the village chief's place first."

After saying that, she turned to look at the village chief and asked softly.

"Village chief, haven't the warships in the harbor left?"

"Humph!"

The village chief kept slamming the floor with a cane and said indignantly.

"That group of Saba military cao, in order to tie up with that navy, sealed our port."

Thinking of the conversation between himself and Saba Juncao just now, the head of this windmill village blew his beard and glared.

Didn't you just ask, why didn't this warship leave?

Unexpectedly, that sentence seemed to have stepped on the guy's tail, and jumped up directly on the spot.

[Saba: There are people in your village who want to go to sea to become One Piece, and they still say it in front of me Saba and Colonel Asuka.

This is a joke about my Saba's future, because I am too good, I will be recommended by Colonel Monka to go to the headquarters next year, and as a result, in my jurisdiction, there is a pirate who wants to be the king of the pirates.

The point is that I don't know if Colonel Asuka heard about it.

It's okay if Colonel Asuka doesn't hear it, but if he does, he sees that I personally let a pirate who wants to become the king of the pirates leave, and Lao Tzu will not be promoted in the future.

Seal your village for a few days, and when that Colonel Asuka leaves, any of you who wants to be the king of the pirates will be the king of the pirates. 】

After cursing in his heart for a while, the head of Windmill Village pursed his mouth, looked at Luffy, and said in a deep voice.

"Hmph, what kind of pirate is it, it's really a shame for the village, let's live in my house for a while!"

After saying that, the village chief walked away with his cane.

He'd have to ask how long that Asuka guy will be in Windmill Village.

...

When the village chief came to Magino's tavern, he looked at the tall man in front of him who was stir-frying with his back to him, and hesitated.

"Colonel Asuka??"

As soon as he finished shouting, he saw Asuka turn around with a shovel and look at him with a smile on his face.

"Old man, are you returning the book?"

"Wait, I'll give you the book when it gets dark at night!"

As he spoke, the village chief sat directly on the chair, looked at the bird chopping vegetables, and said with a straight face.

"Colonel Asuka, the warship docked in the harbor now has seriously affected the living standards of our villagers."

Bang!

Asuka slashed the kitchen knife on the cutting board, and the entire counter trembled due to the excessive force, which frightened the old man's body subconsciously.

Then, he looked up at the village chief, puzzled.

"What's wrong?"

The village chief told Saba Juncao about the blockade of the port, and of course, he hid Luffy's desire to go to sea to become the king of the pirates.

"Isn't it just that you can't go out to sea to fish?

It's okay, I'll go to the sea tomorrow to catch a sea king for you, and open the meat. ”

"Alas!"

The village chief sighed, then spoke to the Great Voyage.

"Every time Lieutenant General Karp came back, he invited us to eat sea kings, and we were tired of eating crookedly."

"Oh!"

Asuka put down the kitchen knife, wiped his hands with his apron, walked over to the old man, and whispered.

"Old man, did I pay attention to what you mean?

Those people in your village don't want to make that kind of meat, do they?

As a super VIP customer of Happy Street, I can help you call a flower boat, but you have to pay for the money yourself..."

"cough~cough~"

Hearing that Asuka was going to call him a flower boat, the village chief suddenly coughed violently, he turned his head, not looking at the ridiculous expression on Asuka's face, and then stood up directly, patted his clothes, and sighed.

"Old!"

"It's okay, I have medicine there, it works well for the elderly!"

Is there medicine??

It also works for the elderly??

The head of the windmill village opened his eyes wide, he looked up and looked around, and after seeing that there was no one around, he looked up and down at the birds for a long time, and said with some surprise.

"Can't you do it anymore?"

Asuka stroked his chin with one hand, and looked down at the head of the windmill village in front of him, whose body was not so thin and thin, but also strong and powerful from the outside, and whose facial features looked unusually energetic.

After looking at it for a while, he smashed his mouth and lowered his voice.

"Old man, tonight, you wait for me at home, I'll take you out to play, it's just the two of us."

Somehow, the village chief always felt a little chilly.

Although he felt that he might have misunderstood the other party's meaning, he waved his hand and refused.

"No, forget it, thank you for the kindness."

After speaking, the village chief directly pushed open the door and walked out.

If we continue to talk, I'm afraid that this guy will do something bad to himself.

Looking at the back of the village chief leaving in a hurry, Asuka took out the gold card of Happy Street from his arms and smashed his mouth, tonight he can drag the old man to Happy Street with a moon step.

Alas, the opportunity was missed.

Shortly after the village chief left, Magino also returned from outside.

As soon as she entered her tavern, she saw that the table was full of food.

Seeing the bird who had just taken off his apron, Magino's face flushed, and his tone was a little timid.

"What are you doing all this?"

"Ahh

As soon as the bowl was set, Asuka took out a stack of recipes from his pocket and placed them on the table, explaining.

"There was an old man who was missing a leg and said I could only make egg fried rice, and then I learned to cook a little bit recently and you were the first to taste it.

Quick Compensation. ”

As he spoke, Asuka pulled out a chair and sat down first, then picked up the fast child and tasted some meat and vegetables.

Well...

I have to say that Zhepu's recipes are level, and the dishes he makes are better than those made by the chefs on his warship.

Looking at Asuka's face, Magino's mind suddenly remembered the scene when Asuka had not left the East China Sea.

At that time, he often came to eat here, and his relationship with him was quite good at that time.

It's just that everything changed on the day Ace went to sea.

Magino remembered what she had done to get him out to sea safely when Ace left Windmill Village.

Some are too heavy.

And that time, the relationship between himself and Asuka was far worse than now.

But it's better to return now, if you do it again...

Thinking of this, Magino sniffed, secretly glanced at the bird, and after taking a deep breath for a while, she looked down at the upper of her shoe and whispered.

"The warships in the harbor..."

"Warship?"

Asuka put down his fast, looked up at Magino, then beckoned to her, motioned for her to sit down at the table, and when Magino came closer, he turned his head to look in the direction where the head of the windmill village had just left, and continued.

"That old man asked you to come, right?

Alas, a warship is parked there, and it does not affect your access to the sea.

Every time Karp comes home, he doesn't see you rushing out. ”

As he spoke, Asuka saw Magino's changing face, and put a quick meat dish in her bowl, leaned over to her, and asked in a low voice.

"You don't want that idiot who is shouting to be the king of the pirates to go to sea, right??"

Magino's face turned pale, and she stared at Asuka in disbelief.

"You know??"

"Yes!"

Asuka nodded and said with great certainty.

"I was just asleep, not dead, and the straw hat boy was roaring so loudly under the warship that I heard it lying on the deck, but I didn't pay attention to him.

And the guy hasn't offered a bounty yet, and I don't have a reason to catch him.

However, how do you say that I forcibly dragged him into the navy??? ”

"Don't!"

Magino decisively helped Luffy refuse.

His grandfather wanted his grandson to join the Navy so much, but it didn't go against Luffy's wishes, so why should you make decisions for him without permission.

"Oh, Magino, a guy who doesn't join the navy, but is still inspired to become the king of the pirates, is going to sea... Are you going to make me blind? ”

Looking at Asuka's serious expression, Magino blinked and said with some anticipation.

"Can't you?"

Scold!

Asuka folded his arms over his chest and shook his head decisively.

"What's so good about going to sea, maybe you will die at sea as soon as you leave the door.

Magino, you don't want to see your villagers die in the sea, do you? ”

Seeing Asuka reject herself, and say this familiar word again, Magino stood up, walked to the door, closed the door, closed the curtains, looked around the somewhat dimly lit room, and came to Asuka again, closed his eyes, and said in a trembling tone.

Install the latest version. 】

"Come on!"

"What's coming?"

"It was like that three years ago..."

Three years ago??

Asuka tilted his head and began to think back to three years ago.

What did you do three years ago??

Three years ago... Didn't give money for meals??

Looking at the closed doors and windows, and the somewhat dimly lit room, and Magino standing in front of him, Asuka smashed his mouth, and his head was stunned to remember what he had done three years ago.

Just as he was thinking, Asuka felt his hand being grasped by Magino, and then placed it in the position of the other person's heart.

Feeling Magino's rapidly beating heart and looking at the other party's flushed face, Asuka hesitated a little.

"I did this three years ago??"

"Shut up, have you forgotten what you've done?"

glanced at the nervous expression on the other party's face.

Belch...

It's not like lying to yourself.

But why don't I have an impression of this?
