Chapter 918 Unsatisfied Honesty
"Can this hat be returned to Shanks for me?" Luffy said again after being silent for a while.
Although Newton's words were full of dissatisfaction and disdain for Shanks just now, Luffy could still hear that Newton wasn't really dissatisfied with Shanks, but just disliked his integrity!
Of course, Luffy doesn't know the word disgust!
But it means the same.
He could hear the relationship between Newton and Shanks, not as bad as Newton said!
And this is what Newton deliberately showed!
the other side!
Hearing Luffy's words, Newton was shocked.
He never imagined that Luffy would be willing to send the hat back!
Before he came, he heard Arthur say how important this hat is to Luffy!
However, on second thought, Newton can also accept it!
Because before he came, he also heard what Arthur said about the little details of what he did to Luffy back then!
Nima!
If it wasn't for Luffy who went through everything back then, if it were an ordinary child who was treated like this by Arthur, he would have been completely depressed long ago, right?
So, he can understand a little bit about Luffy asking him to return the hat now!
Although he was not depressed, he always had some shadows on the pirates in his heart, so Luffy would be somewhat disgusted with the hat of the pirate king!
After thinking about it, Newton said lightly, "Based on what I know about Shanks. Has he made an agreement with you on this hat?"
"how do you know?"
Luffy couldn't help but exclaimed.
"Ha ha!"
Newton chuckled lightly, with a look I knew, but no explanation!
"However, even so, please send it back to him for me! I'm afraid there is no way to fulfill the promise!" After being surprised for a while, Luffy's eyes darkened slightly, and a look of despair appeared on his face!
Looking at Luffy like this, Newton's mind turned a little, and he understood!
It turned out that the reason why Newton was asked to help deliver the hat was because, in addition to his disgust for pirates, Luffy was mainly afraid that he would die here and could not fulfill the promise!
Yes!
He is like this now, except for Newton himself, everyone else, or himself, all feel that they are dead!
no way!
Newton is too strong!
And once he dies here, then the agreement between him and Shanks is doomed, so it is normal to find someone to complete the agreement for him in advance!
It would be even better if this man was the one who killed them, Newton!
Because with Newton's strength, he can definitely deliver the hat!
Thinking, a playful smile appeared on Newton's face, "Why, are you afraid that you won't be able to fulfill the agreement?"
Luffy nodded and said nothing!
Seeing this, a disdainful smile appeared on Newton's face, and said, "Don't worry, you have a chance to finish! Even if you don't look at that bastard Shanks' face, look at your grandfather's face!"
"My grandpa?" Luffy said with surprise on his face, "You still know my grandpa?"
"I don't know." Newton shook his head and said, "but I know your grandfather is a vice admiral, naval hero Karp!"
"what!?"
Following Newton's words, before Luffy and his party could react, the crowd of onlookers who were watching in the restaurant exclaimed in surprise!
If you tell this group of businessmen and nobles in the East China Sea what the four emperors of the new world are
Sorry, they don't know and don't understand!
But when it comes to Vice Admiral Garp, they all know it!
As for why.
There are several reasons!
One is that Garp was born in the East China Sea!
As a hero of the navy, and it was produced locally in the East China Sea, the navy of the East China Sea and the nobles of the kingdom of the East China Sea would more or less publicize his reputation and establish the image of a hero who was born in the East China Sea!
The second is that Garp often travels between the Great Waterway and the East China Sea, and often sneaks back to the East China Sea to see his grandson. On the way, he often handles the pirates in the East China Sea, maintaining the security of the East China Sea to a certain extent!
Therefore, those people in the East China Sea who were rescued by Garp or injured by pirates, after knowing Garp's name, will more or less spontaneously help him promote it!
Third, and most importantly!
The East China Sea is the territory of the world government!
On their own territory, of course, they are only allowed to promote their own people!
How is it possible to allow the promotion of pirates?
Therefore, driven by the above reasons, these businessmen and nobles in the East China Sea do not know what the Four Emperors are, but they all know the existence of the naval hero Garp!
"I didn't expect that the silly-looking kid turned out to be the grandson of the naval hero Garp!"
"Yeah! I really didn't expect it!"
"Wait, when Lord Bucky is gone, I must go up and get to know him!"
"Go together, go together!"
After all the businessmen and nobles were surprised, they began to discuss in a low voice!
And what they discussed the most was undoubtedly waiting for Bucky to go up and get to know Luffy!
Not for anything else!
Just because Luffy's grandfather is a Vice Admiral!
If you can get the friendship of a Vice Admiral in the Navy, then it will be of great benefit to them too!
Of course, what they don't know is that Luffy's character is destined to be impossible to get along with them!
"Ha ha!"
And listening to Newton's words, Luffy showed a rare wry smile on his face!
He never thought that one day he would live because of his grandfather's name!
You must know that since he was a child, he has been yearning for the sea, for adventure, and for a free life. In addition to Shanks, in addition to the King of Adventure, part of the reason is because of Garp!
Because of the shadow of love that Karp has left him since he was a child, he has always wanted to break free from Karp's shackles, get out of Karp's control, and stay away from Karp's pit bull!
But ironically, it was the person he wanted to get out of the most who saved his life now!
"Almost, you can prepare to leave!"
Looking at Luffy's appearance, Newton thought silently in his heart.
His original purpose was to make Luffy famous.
Now, after pointing out that Roger left the hat to Shanks, Shanks left it to Luffy, and pointed out that Luffy's grandfather is the naval hero Garp, his purpose has been completed!
These two pieces of news will definitely make Luffy even more famous!
Think about it, an adventurer who inherits the hat of One Piece, his grandfather turned out to be a naval hero, how topical is this?
Of course, if Newton revealed that Luffy's father was the leader of the revolutionary army, the most vicious criminal in the world, the topic would be even stronger!
However, he thought about it or forget it!
It's so topical.
But I am afraid that the world government will also use Luffy as a target!
Although the world government should also know the relationship between Luffy and Drago, exposure and non-exposure are two different things!
No exposure, with Garp around, the world government should take care of Garp's emotions more or less!
It was exposed, even if Karp was there, the world government had to do it!
Otherwise, the son of a revolutionary army leader is blindly dazzling, and if the world government can't handle it, the allied countries should have doubts about the ability of the world government!
"However, there is one last step!"
Newton thought, looked at Luffy deeply, and said, "Boy, although you offended me, but your courage. I approve!"
This is the last step!
The purpose of playing Hawkeye before was to use Hawkeye to set off Newton, but now that Newton is set off, of course, Newton is used to set off Luffy!
Think about it, a small person, being a big person with the strength like an eagle eye, said that I agree with you, how much honor is this?
Just like before Arthur crossed, a diaosi was told by an army commander that I was optimistic about you!
After he finished speaking, Newton didn't stay any longer. After leaving a stack of Baileys as compensation for destroying the restaurant, he left here with two comatose rubbish men!
Leaving behind a group of nobles and businessmen with eyes shining on Luffy.
Leaving Luffy and his gang with a face after the disaster.
