Vol. 04 Ch. 19 – Welcome Greeting

Arthur and the others took a short break at the Twin Cape to hear the full story about Laboon and the Rumbar Pirates. Law, Bepo, and Sugar felt sorry for Laboon so they asked Arthur to look for the Rumbar Pirates and bring them back to meet Laboon.

Arthur: "It's not time yet for their meeting to take place. Even if they wait a little longer, they will surely meet again. Crocus, keep looking of the news until you hear the name of Brook, a former member of the Rumbar pirate, will active again. "

Crocus: "Thank you very much, Arthur. I had wanted to start operating and modifying Laboon's body so I could stay in it and treat it from inside of his body. Because I feel this has reached its limit he was treated from the outside. "

Hancock: "So, where are we going next, Arthur?"

Arthur: "We will go to the island of Foolshout after I successfully recruit our new members, than, an exploring trip East Blue is next."

Bepo: "Captain, 3 marine ships are approaching." Bepo ran to report what he saw.

Crocus: "Looks like your name is indeed very famous until they pick you up here, The Art of Death, the captain of the ART Pirate, Phantasm D Arthur. I'm curious to know who they ordered to pick you up? " Arthur already knew who was coming in using his Kenbunshoku Haki.

Arthur: "Ugh ... I don't want to meet him." The marine ship was getting closer and could be seen the figurehead of the marine ship was the head of the dog.

Crocus: "Look like they want to make a sure arrest you until they send a Marine Hero, Vice-Admiral Garp."

Garp: "Bwahahaha ... we meet again, damn boy. It seems like there are more members in your crew, how about you invite them to your house and stay quiet not going out of here again? " Garp's distinctive laughter is heard even though his figure is not yet clearly visible to the eye.

Arthur: "I will be surprised if you follow Sengoku-Jisan order to come here and arrest me, so how exactly did you come here?"

Garp: "I just finished my vacation in my hometown and heard you entered the Grand Line so I joined them." Hearing Garp mention about them, some of the Marines walked forward so they could be seen clearly from the Twin Cape.

Arthur: "Oh ... Vice-Admiral Onigumo and Momonga. Eh, is it you Z-sensei, how's Z-sensei doing? " Arthur waved his hand towards special instructor Zephyr.

Hancock: "Sensei?" Hancock asked about Arthur and Zephyr's relationship.

Arthur: "Yes, when I was little I learned from Z-Sensei." Arthur remembers his past while learning from Zephyr.

Zephyr: "Arthur, I don't remember if I taught you to be a pirate, why did you choose this path?"

Arthur: "Sensei, what's wrong with taking my wives on a trip to a historical site and free to sail across the seas? Have I ever bothered the citizens? Am I not allowed to take down someone who wants to kill me? " Arthur calmly answered Zephyr's question with a question as well.

Zephyr: "Looks like I have to force you to go home."

Arthur: "Z-Sensei, do you want to let the marine members behind you to fight, don't be angry if one or two hundred people will die." Arthur gave a warning to the marine.

The Marine: "Huh? Damn pirates, don't think we are afraid of you. "

Hearing one of the members of the marine cry out made Arthur activate his Haoshoku Haki. Making almost all the marine members on his ship fell unconscious, this scene makes the marine on the other ship become afraid and did not dare to act carelessly. A pirate with a bounty value of 250,000,000 B must not to be underestimated.

Zephyr: "You all do not move, only the vice-admiral will fight." Zephyr gave orders to other members of the Marine.

Arthur: "Do three of you want to fight?"

Robin: "Actually I don't want to fight but the four of them seem very excited to fight." Robin got up from her chair and closed the book she was reading.

Arthur: "Robin and Baby-5 will fight Vice-Admiral Onigumo and Momonga, Hancock can face Garp, let me face Z-Sensei. Monet and Law, you guys get ready if all three of them need help. If other marine members get off the ship, then Sugar and Bepo can overcome them. " Arthur spoke loudly until the marine heard his words.

Everyone: "All right."

Arthur: "[Art's Room]"

Arthur immediately used [Art's Room] because if the four of them could not avoid this technique then they would be of no use as fighting opponents. The Vice-Admiral has received a report regarding the abilities of Arthur and the others. They immediately used their Busoshoku Haki to cover their entire body and immediately moved quickly to attack Arthur and the others.

Arthur: "Damned, Corazon, he told them the ability of my devil fruit. Sensei, can we sit and watch the six of them fight? If possible I don't want to kill the person who taught me. "

Zephyr: "Your speech is too big, Arthur. [Soru] "Zephyr moved quickly towards Arthur but could still be read with Kenbunshoku Haki.

* Bang *

Arthur who managed to avoid at the last second and counterattacked by hitting Zephyr with all his might, sending Zephyr thrown back to the marine and knocking down the main mast of the ship. The young marine who joined the ship was surprised by what he saw. The former Admiral who is now an elite marine instructor can be defeated with one blow. Zephyr who was buried by parts of the ship was trying to get up and walk back toward Arthur.

Zephyr: "Arthur, you have grown stronger since we last met."

Arthur: "So, does Z-Sensei still want to fight with me? I still want Z-Sensei to be an instructor in the marine." Arthur wanted to meet with Ain, but if Zephyr fell here then that possibility could be lost.

Zephyr: "I will stop if you want to go home right now, I'm sure they will not mind if you return right now." Zephyr is still trying to persuade Arthur.

Arthur: "What about Robin and the others?"

Zephyr: "They will get the punishment accordingly." After saying that sentence, Zephyr lost Arthur's figure from before him.

Arthur: "Don't dare, to touch, the people I love. [Gyojin Karate: Gosenmaigawara Seiken]"

Arthur uses Gyojin Karate because this technique is the mastery of water in the immediate vicinity of the user, using his power to send strong waves that have an impact on the water in the opponent's body. Because every creature has a high percentage of water in its body, this technique is difficult to resist. Besides that, Arthur also uses his Busoshoku Haki and Haoshoku Haki in this one attack. Zephyr immediately turned pale because he could not avoid Arthur's attack and he also knew how terrifying Gyojin Karate was. Zephyr who received the attack from Arthur was thrown back to the next ship and vomited blood, he did not die but only lost his consciousness. Arthur knew that this would not kill Zephyr directly, if he received treatment quickly then he can stand up the next day.

Arthur: "Looks like they're almost done too." Arthur who was among the marine members ignored them and focused on Hancock and the others.
