Chapter 103 It’s too late

"Who's calling?"

"Boss, ask me what I'm doing!"

"What's that guy going to do? Forget it, it's vacation time now." Garp, who had taken a break and was sitting at the bar, said happily, "Besides, this is a banquet specially held by my grandson, I have to enjoy it!"

"Mr. Garp... This is the money Luffy has saved after working for a long time." The bar owner, Makino, looked at Vice Admiral Garp helplessly and said, "He said he would save it to buy a ship, don't spend it all for him."

This Mr. Garp...

Makino didn't know what to say.

At that time, when she heard that Luffy had saved the money he earned from working with her and wanted to use the money to drink, she seriously refused and said that this was Luffy's money. Without Luffy's permission, even if he was Luffy's grandfather, she would not give it to him.

As a result...

As soon as Luffy came back.

First, as usual, he accepted the Iron Fist of Love from his grandfather.

Then.

After asking Luffy to treat his grandfather to a drink, Luffy refused without hesitation and said that he was here to buy a ship.

But then, another iron fist came down, asking Luffy that he had received his salary, whether he wanted to have a party to celebrate, and everyone would eat barbecue and drink together, and suddenly...

Luffy, with a bruised face, agreed without hesitation.

Although Makino also had doubts, it might be because Mr. Garp's iron fist of love was too heavy that Luffy agreed, but since Luffy agreed, Makino didn't say much.

And...

Makino looked at Luffy who was so happy that he jumped on the table and danced a strange dance, enjoying the party with the villagers.

Maybe Luffy also likes to hold parties!

But.

"I'm a navy man, how can I watch my grandson save money to buy a pirate ship!" Vice Admiral Garp leaned back on the bar, holding a wine glass in his left hand and picking his nose with his right hand, and said shamelessly, "This brat actually wants to go out to sea as a pirate? He might as well use the money to treat his grandfather to a drink!"

As soon as these words fell.

Makino:...

Before Makino, who looked helpless, could say anything else.

"Pulu Pulu~, Pulu Pulu~"

The Den Den Mushi rang, and this time it was Garp's Den Den Mushi.

Garp drank while answering his Den Den Mushi. He knew who was calling without even looking, and said cheerfully, "Sengoku, what's up? I'm on vacation!"

"Why is it so noisy over there?" Sengoku Den Den Mushi frowned, then said, "Can you be quiet?"

"Ahaha, we're having a party!" Garp didn't care about Sengoku's dissatisfaction at all, and laughed proudly, "My grandson made money and held a party for me."

"Your grandson?" Sengoku Den Den Mushi was stunned, then seemed to remember something, and his frown calmed down a little, and said lightly, "Forget it, your vacation is over, get back to me quickly Come on, do you still remember your mission?"

"Mission? What mission?"

"You! Colonel Monka, a corrupt official from the East China Sea!" Hearing Garp's words, Sengoku Den Den Mushi's face darkened again, "When you come back, bring this guy back for trial!"

"Oh, is that it? Don't worry, of course I still remember it!"

"I'm not at all assured!" Sengoku Den Den Mushi said unhappily, "Don't forget it again, and remember to come back quickly!"

"Got it! You're really a bummer! Sengoku." Garp picked his nose and said disdainfully, "I'm still having a party now!"

As he said that, he seemed to have thought of something, hugged Mok beside him, and said happily again.

"By the way, the East China Sea has become quite interesting now. When are you going to take a vacation, Sengoku? I'll take you to relax with me then! This kid even said that he will treat you then!"

"That's right, Garp's friends are my friends." Mok held up a wine glass in his left hand, patted his chest with his right hand, and said enthusiastically, "When are you going to take a vacation, Sengoku, I'll treat you!"

"Okay, thank you!" Hearing the sudden voice, although he didn't know who it was, Sengoku Den Den Mushi didn't care, thinking it was Garp's fellow countryman, and replied politely in the same way, and then said to Garp in a bad mood, "Do you think I'm as free as you? When I take a vacation, I guess I have to wait until I retire from this position."

"Ahaha, then we can relax together then, anyway, this kid said he would treat us!"

" You old man are too shameless. Don't take other people's treats for granted. Thank them for what they have done!" Sengoku Den Den Mushi continued to criticize unhappily, and then sighed, "Forget it, don't forget the mission, and come back quickly. I have something else to do, so I'll hang up now!"

"Beep~"

After the call was hung up, Vice Admiral Garp put away the Den Den Mushi casually, and continued to drink happily, saying, "This Sengoku is really annoying!"

"Is this the friend that Boss Garp mentioned?"

"Yes, we've been friends for decades, but it's agreed that you will entertain him when the time comes!"

"No problem, leave it to me, Mok!"

"Ahaha~" Hearing Mok's generous words, Garp couldn't help but let out a hearty laugh and raised the wine glass in his hand, "Let's continue drinking!"

"Cheers to Boss Garp!" Mok happily raised his glass, and then hugged Bogart who was looking at him strangely, and said in a carefree manner, "Brother Bogart, what's wrong with you? Why don't you drink?"

"Nothing...!"

"Let's drink!"

"Cheers!"

Just as the group continued to enjoy the banquet, Buggy, who was also dancing in the field, came over with a smile, "Boss Garp, is there anything happy?"

Looking at Mok who was so familiar with Vice Admiral Garp, Buggy's eyes also flashed with envy and jealousy!

I thought that dancing with Vice Admiral Garp's grandson and showing off his circus stunts of dancing would get Vice Admiral Garp's recognition.

Unexpectedly...I'm not as good as this guy who has been drinking with Vice Admiral Garp here all the time!

"Please let me toast to you too!"

"Ahaha, Roger's younger brother was quite good at hosting banquets." Garp didn't care about this little rascal, patted his shoulder with a laugh, drank the beer in his right hand, looked at Buggy and laughed, "Get ready, we'll leave tomorrow morning!"

"?!"

Baki shuddered when he heard Vice Admiral Garp's question.

Has he finally been recognized?

It's worth it that he has been flattering this old man these days!

He immediately raised his head and said, "Yes! Boss Garp, I'm ready!"

"Ahaha, don't be so nervous, just enjoy the banquet today!" Vice Admiral Garp laughed, then looked at Makino behind him and said, "Makino, how much money does that brat have left?"

"There's still some left, Mr. Garp." Hearing Garp finally asking how much money his grandson had left, Makino was relieved. He thought that this grandfather was beginning to care about whether Luffy had enough money to pay the bill. "Luffy is capable at the construction site. He can do the work of ten people alone. Therefore, the salary is not low, so you don't have to worry."

Looking at the happy people in front of him, there was a smile on his face.

"Since it's like this, as a grandfather, please enjoy this banquet too!"

But.

"Oh, there's still some left? Then I'm relieved." Garp's tone was surprised, and then he nodded with satisfaction and said, "Buy me all of it as wine, I'll take it away tomorrow!"

After the words fell.

Makino:...

Then.

He said speechlessly, "Mr. Garp!"

Just when he was about to say something.

"Luffy." Garp shouted directly at Luffy on the field, "Grandpa wants to drink some more wine, okay?"

"No problem!"

"..."

"Look, that brat agreed." Garp picked his nose, bared his teeth and said shameless words, and raised the wine glass in his hand again, "Everyone, don't be polite, my grandson is treating me today, drink it!"

"Cheers!"

Except for Makino who looked helpless, the rest of the people also raised their glasses.

Especially Buggy... raised his glass in his hand more excitedly.

He finally got the trust of this old guy.

The day of dominating the East China Sea and realizing the dream is coming!

I took a deep breath and shouted loudly, "Cheers!"

...

However.

The next day.

Looking at the shore of the Goa Kingdom that was getting farther and farther away, and Mok standing on the shore waving to him.

Baki:...

Silence.

Then he turned his head and looked at Vice Admiral Garp in confusion, "Boss Garp, why didn't Captain Mok come up?"

"Him! He can leave by himself later!" Garp said with emotion while picking his nose, "And why is he following me?"

"What about me?"

"Aren't you going to follow me?"

"Isn't Captain Mok also following Boss Garp?"

"Who said he followed me?" Garp looked at Buggy in confusion and said, "How come I don't know."

"..."

For some reason, Buggy suddenly felt a bad feeling in his heart at this moment. He hesitated for a moment and asked with a stiff upper lip, "Can I ask where we are going this time?"

"Navy Headquarters! Don't you want to be a navy?"

"?!" Hearing Garp's words, Buggy finally understood what was going on and shouted loudly, "Who said I want to be a navy? Let me go. I want to be a pirate like Mok!"

But

"Bang~"

Another iron fist came down.

And then.

"Ahahaha!" Looking at Buggy who suddenly yelled, Vice Admiral Garp smiled meaningfully and said while picking his nose, "It's too late now, red-nosed boy!"
