Showoff Sea King

East Blue, Foosha Village.

This was a small village in the Goa Kingdom, the hometown of the future protagonist, Luffy. But even now, this small village was not as plain as it seemed.

The Vice-Admiral of the Marine Headquarters, a legendary figure in the Marines. Garp, who once defeated the legendary Rocks pirates, and was known as the hero of the Marines because of that, came from this village. Most importantly, Garp went back to his hometown quite often, which indirectly hindered East Blue's piracy.

In a pub at Foosha Village, a pirate crew was currently holding a banquet.

The laughter echoed nearly throughout the entire village. At this moment, Giotto, who was having an afternoon tea under the parasol not far from the pub with Aria, also smiled and shook his head: "What a boisterous pirate!"

"But they are also quite interesting, aren't they?" Aria smiled.

Indeed, pirates like them were quite interesting, but the majority of pirates in the sea were good-for-nothing like Kaido, who would do anything to obtain what they wanted, even committing all kinds of crimes.

The word "Pirates" never got along with "kind", their existence had caused great trouble for the world.

In the beginning, didn't Giotto chose to return to Secon Island to establish the current Vongola Family? It was all to prevent the Great Pirates Era from destroying his hometown!

"Take me with you to the sea, Shanks!" In the pub, a child sat in front of the bar and said to the red-haired man beside him with a face full of expectation.

He was very envious of Shanks and his crews. Naturally, he also wanted to become a pirate, and this child was the future protagonist of this world, Monkey D. Luffy!

"Dahaha! Can a kid like you become a pirate?" Shanks couldn't help but laugh when he heard Luffy's words.

Yasopp also turned around and said, "Luffy, even if you're good at swimming, that alone is not enough to be a pirate."

Hearing this, Luffy retorted angrily, arguing that his punch was as powerful as a pistol, but no one cared about it. Even if his punch was as powerful as a pistol, the powerful people out there didn't care about a mere pistol.

At this time, Giotto, who was having afternoon tea outside the pub, had a strange smile on his face. He saw a group of people walking towards the pub, and their lead seems really weak to be frank, but such a weak person would humiliate Shanks later. He was wondering how Shanks could bear with all the insult directed at him later.

"Let's go and take a look. It's gonna be interesting."

Giotto and Aria stood up and walked towards the pub.

"Bam!"

At this time, the door of the pub was kicked open and the atmosphere became quiet in an instant. The leader of the group walked in step by step and glanced at the members of the Red Hair Pirates around him. He then sneered: "Oh? Are you guys pirates? You guys sure have a silly look on your faces."

"We are mountain bandits, but we are not here to cause trouble. Hurry up and sell us the sake, ten barrels will do." The mountain bandit named Higuma said arrogantly in front of the bar.

Giotto took advantage of this silence to sneak into the corner of the pub hall. Then, Giotto just watched what would happen in front of him with a smile on his face.

However, Aria suddenly frowned. Then, he looked at Giotto with a smile and whispered, "Ah, the owner of the tavern seems to be quite pretty. I wonder what her name is?"

"You mean Makino?" Giotto subconsciously answered without thinking.

After all, for someone who had watched the anime, it was not a surprise for him to remember her name.

But the problem was that Aria did not know about it!

Then Giotto felt a chill, and the cold voice came from Aria's mouth, "Primo, don't tell me you come here for her! I sure hope you can give a good explanation once we're alone!"

Giotto just came here to see Shanks, but why did he feel that he was in trouble?

"Brrkk!"

Right at this moment, Higuma crushed the glass on Shanks' hand with a single punch, and the sake inside spilled all over Shanks' body. The reason why he did this was because Shanks and his crew bought all the sake that the pub had, so they had no sake left to sell to Higuma.

At the same time, Giotto took out a recording Den Den Mushi out of nowhere and began to record this classic scene where a random guy smashed sake bottles at the Four Emperors!

"I am a mountain bandit with eight million Belly bounty. One bottle of sake is not even enough to rinse my mouth!"

These words were simply condescending. Luckily for Higuma, this was East Blue. If this were New World, who would brag having a bounty of eight million belly?

When Aria heard this, the juice she drank nearly spilled out her mouth, and she nearly laughed. However, she did not say anything. 

However, Shanks did not intend to argue with this mountain bandit. Instead, he bent down and get ready to clean the floor as it was dirtied by spilled sake.

Seeing him like this, Higuma's attitude got worse and worse. He crushed everything on the bar counter with his sword. "Looks like you like cleaning very much. There you go! You should be able to clean it up to your heart's content! Hahaha, let's go boys! There's no point in staying here if there's no sake. If we stick around for too long, their idiocy will get to us!"

Higuma then left with his men.

Setting aside his strength, Higuma was was at least full of arrogance!

During that brief exchange, he was better than Whitebeard in terms of arrogance alone. If he didn't know the plot, Giotto might really think that this guy was secretly a skilled character.

"Dahahaha!"

"Chief is getting humiliated!"

"It's really comical!"

After Higuma left, all of Red Hair Pirates, including Shanks, laughed. Only one person was seething with anger. Seeing them laughing like this, Luffy couldn't help but shout: "How can you still laugh? Don't you think it is embarrassing? Why don't you fight them! Even if they have more men and look very strong, how can you still laugh when that guy earlier mocks you? You are not worthy to be pirates!"

"Pfftt hahahahaha!"

At this time, Giotto finally could not help but laugh out loud. He couldn't hold it back anylonger "Looks very strong? Hey, Shanks! It seems a a very strong mountain bandit just insults you!"
