Chapter 85 - The Death of the Marine Force
“An acquaintance of mine?”
After Garp took a look at the bar, there was no memory in his mind about being in this Sabaody Archipelago.
After all, Garp was in his own world, all the way into the New World. Although he had come to Sabaody Archipelago, he just went for a simple coating and did not stay on this island more.
Therefore, Garp did not feel that he had any acquaintances on this island.
“Of course it is your acquaintance. Let’s go, go in and see it.”
After Wexford said, he led the way to this unique hut in the Sabaody Archipelago.
……
In the hut.
After hearing the noisy footsteps outside, Shakuyaku, who was cleaning up her cup, raised her head and whispered, “Someone is here?”
Before Shakuyaku spoke, Rayleigh, who was sitting at the bar drinking, had stopped moving, and he certainly knew that someone was coming outside and that it was certainly not small.
“There may be some trouble, pay attention later.”
After Rayleigh finished speaking, he stood up and turned his head to look at the location of the bar entrance.
Just as Rayleigh was talking, Wexford had already led Katakuri and the others to the front door.
“It’s you guys!”
When Wexford’s face appeared in Rayleigh’s eyes, the former first mate of the Pirate King froze.
Although Rayleigh knew that Wexford and the others had sailed towards the Sabaody Archipelago, how did this group of people find him here directly?
Just when Rayleigh was surprised, Garp, who was following behind Wexford, also had an incredible face at this time, “Rayleigh?!”
How could Garp not expect that he could actually see his old friend in this Sabaody Archipelago?
After so many events, of course, Rayleigh also knew that this Garp was not the marine hero Vice Admiral, so when he saw Garp, he did not associate the other side as the Marine Headquarters Vice Admiral.
But when this Garp called out his name, Rayleigh was still a little surprised, “You know me?”
At the same time as Rayleigh had doubts, Garp had squeezed into the room, smiling, and came to Rayleigh’s side, “Hahaha, of course I know, I did not expect to meet you.”
For Garp’s enthusiasm, Rayleigh was a bit baffled, ‘Did I know this guy?’
Although in the time of Roger Pirates, Rayleigh and the Vice-Admiral played many times, those times were basically a battle. Moreover, that person did not look like a pirate Garp.
However, although Rayleigh would like to refute the other side, the naive Garp was really too enthusiastic. After riding on his shoulder, he saw Rayleigh pulled hard in the direction of the bar.
“First, a plate of donuts!”
Walking to the bar, Garp heaved his left hand towards the stage and shouted loudly to Shakuyaku.
Shakuyaku’s hands, which were gathering glasses, had stopped when Wexford and the others appeared. Although she ran a business of intelligence, this kind of scene was still very rare.
“Okay.”
For Garp’s request, Shakuyaku also did not refuse, as long as she could earn money. For Shakuyaku, everything was good.
“Fortunately, Shanks and Buggy didn’t come with us, otherwise it would be too much of a mess.”
After following Garp to sit together on the bar seats, Wexford was thankful that he let Buggy and Shanks go to buy a ship at the dock. —As a former crew member of the Roger Pirates, if these two met the First Mate, Rayleigh, they would be excited for half a day.
After Shakuyaku brought out a large plate of donuts from the kitchen, Garp grabbed the plate of donuts.
While eating, Garp did not forget to talk to Rayleigh, “Rayleigh, I did not expect you to have a good time here, actually foster the old.”
In the world of Garp, as his right-hand man, Rayleigh paid a lot of energy in their conquest of the New World. After all, Garp, the captain, was only responsible for the fighting. He didn’t manage the other things.
This kind of thing, most of them fall on Rayleigh and other crew members.
As soon as he followed Garp’s old crew, Rayleigh was responsible for most matters. It was because, from the beginning, Rayleigh did not idle his days. He lived a busy life every day. So Garp lamented when he saw Rayleigh could live such a leisurely life in this world.
Rayleigh, who was picking up his bowl of wine again to drink, heard Garp’s words and then stared, “Well, retirement is indeed very good.”
“Well, it is very good.” After saying that, Garp raised his eyes to observe the bar and then continued, “Wait a few years, I will also go to the Windmill Village to open a bakery, hahaha.”
As a donut lover, Garp was not interested in opening a bar, but the bakery was more to Garp’s liking.
“Windmill village?”
After hearing that, Rayleigh immediately frowned.
Rayleigh felt that if he had not guessed wrong, the Windmill Village was the home of the marine hero. When Shanks passed through the Sabaody Archipelago, he once told Rayleigh some things about the Windmill Village.
And now, this Grap with the appearance and strength of the marine hero had said so.
‘Is he also from the Windmill Village?’
‘If the other party really had a relationship with the Windmill Village, then the village is also too much of a miracle, right?’
“Well, Windmill Village.” After talking about the Windmill Village several times, Garp’s hand, which was about to put the doughnut into his mouth, stopped. The disaster of the Windmill Village had always been the pain in Garp’s heart.
But the good thing was, this world’s Windmill Village could also bring a little comfort to Garp’s heart.
“Since you come from the Windmill Village….”
Rayleigh wanted to ask Garp if the Windmill Village was a magical place, but the pirate with the doughnut just leaned on the bar and snored.
“This…”
He had to say, at this point, this Garp was very similar to the hero of the Marine Headquarters.
…………
When Wexford and others met Rayleigh on the Sabaody Archipelago, the Marine Headquarters office was filled with clouds of worry.
“Wexford Pirate group still refuses to contact us. Even if we are prepared to exchange two Devil Fruit, they do not intend to hand over Borsalino.”
Vice-Admiral Tsuru sat next to Sengoku and reported to this marshal.
“How many times is this?” Sengoku leaned back in his chair and said breathlessly.
“The fourth time.” Tsuru looked at the listless Sengoku and could only shake her head helplessly, “They don’t even give us a chance to talk.”
“It seems that Borsalino is in a bad way.”
Although Sengoku didn’t want to admit it, the other party, after all, had Nagi Nagi no Mi, which was a devil fruit with a special ability.
When Sengoku said this, the other people in the room were also silent.
After all, Borsalino was the Marine Headquarters Admiral, as the highest decision-making level of the marine, they did not have the way to save Borsalino.
This was a massive blow to the marine.
