After coming out of the Fleet Admiral's office, Luffy walked with the wind.
Turning the villa key in his hand, he hummed a little tune and staggered out of the headquarters building.
This time, talking with Sengoku, not only did he find a new warship.
Even the luxury house that he should have as a young man, Sengoku simply asked people to deal with it urgently and arranged it for him.
He was in high spirits and released his observation Haki, intending to see what Ain and the others were doing at this time. He wanted to share this good news with them as soon as possible.
Soon, he found the target, and also found that the women did not go out, but were gathering at home.
This is not a big deal, after all, Hancock's charm is too great, and going out is not a good thing. It's just that Luffy is a little embarrassed. At this time, in addition to the women in the villa, he also felt another familiar breath.
Grandpa? Why did he come back? Is it because of the Seven Warlords of the Sea Meeting? Luffy could clearly hear the conversation between the few people, and he was so shocked that he sucked his teeth and took a breath.
Is this considered a discovery of the hidden beauty in the golden house? It always feels a bit embarrassing to go back like this.
Rubbing his head irritably, Luffy sighed and muttered:
"Forget it, I can't avoid it anyway, I might as well admit it generously, maybe the old man will be quite happy."
He comforted himself in this way, and a flash of lightning flashed on the spot, and in an instant his figure appeared outside the house.
He straightened his suit and put the key in his pocket.
Luffy pushed the door very unnaturally and walked into the villa.
As soon as he entered, Garp's loud laughter came from the living room.
"Hahaha, so you've never fought before. It seems that you've been slacking off over the years, Hina.
But that bastard Luffy actually used that trick on his comrades. I'll definitely teach him a lesson when he get back."
Luffy paused while changing his shoes and opened his mouth, wondering if he should just run away instead of going in.
But how could his actions be hidden from Garp? He just had this thought when he heard Garp shouting:
"Luffy, you bastard kid, get over here!"
"Alas~ I'm here."
He responded weakly, changed into slippers, and slowly walked into the living room.
Nami and Ain, who were very nervous in the living room, suddenly flashed with light in their eyes when they saw him coming back.
God knows how much pressure they felt when they returned home and suddenly found that Garp was there.
Especially Nami, this was her first time meeting Garp.
Whenever she thought of the deeds of this great man that she had read in her books, her legs would go weak.
Not to mention, this man is Luffy's grandfather, which made her psychologically stressed even more.
On the contrary, Hina, Kujaku, and Hancock were either older and strong in heart.
Or they were very familiar with Garp and didn't feel any pressure at all.
So when Ain and Nami were huddled aside and shivering, it was Kujaku and Hina who were chatting with Garp.
Even Hancock could interject a few words, calling him grandpa all the time, and she couldn't even call Garp.
"Grandpa."
Seeing Garp, who was full of joy and waving at him with a smile, Luffy said hello and walked over.
Garp pulled him to his side on the large sofa and sat him down.
Then, as expected, he punched Luffy in the head.
But this time he didn't use much force, just a light hammer, then patted Luffy's shoulder and smiled at Hina:
"Don't worry, Hina, with me here, the brat will never dare to bully you again."
As he said this, he looked at the girls around him, nodded with satisfaction, and also promised:
"You too, if this kid dares to bully you, come and tell me, I will definitely teach him a lesson!"
Hearing Garp's promise, the five girls' eyes lit up immediately.
The smart girls knew that this was not only Garp's promise. It was also equivalent to a disguised recognition of them, recognizing them as his granddaughters-in-law.
Suddenly, the girls who were originally nervous and afraid that Garp would not recognize them all breathed a sigh of relief. They immediately complimented and flattered Garp happily, and the old man was in a good mood and laughed all the time. After chatting for a long time, Garp suddenly looked at the clock hanging on the wall.
"It's already this late, so let's stop here today. You young people, please continue. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
As he said this, Garp stood up.
Seeing this, the other girls quickly stood up and wanted to see him off.
But Garp waved his hand, signalling them not to see him off, and then called Luffy alone and took him to the entrance. Luffy silently took Garp's cloak of justice from the hanger and put it on him.
Garp adjusted his tie and said while changing his shoes:
"Luffy, you really brought me a big surprise."
Luffy smiled awkwardly and didn't answer.
Garp glanced at him and saw that he lowered his head and didn't speak, so he reached out and patted his back hard, laughing:
"Hahaha, don't think too much, I'm still very open-minded...
I won't ask too much about your affairs as a young person. You have grown up and will have your own life in the future.
But there is one thing I want to remind you of."
Garp suddenly fell silent, reached out and patted Luffy's pocket where he kept the key to his new home, and said in a tone of an experienced person:
"Remember to be moderate and do less of that kind of thing.
When you have a child, you must call me as soon as possible.
The name of my grandson was taken by that bastard Dragon, so the name of my great-grandson must be given to me!"
Luffy, who had been speechless, finally couldn't hold it anymore after hearing this.
His face changed, and he really wanted to pry open Garp's head to see how he could say such an outrageous thing.
But before he could take any action, Garp's big hand slapped him heavily on the back.
He staggered, and when he steadied himself, the stinky old man had already slipped out the door with a big laugh.
Looking at the closed door, Luffy touched his burning back, grinned and said angrily:
"You wishful thinking, old man. I will never let you name my child!"
After cursing, he turned around and returned to the living room, muttering to himself. As he walked, he breathed a sigh of relief.
He was relieved to see that Garp had no objection to Ain and the others, especially Hancock.
Moreover, in the future, he would not have to be sneaky and hide.
Seeing Luffy coming back, the girls who had been sitting quietly and not saying a word immediately surrounded him like a pot of boiling water, sandwiching him in the middle.
Ain:"So, what did Vice Admiral Garp say to you? Does he like us?"
3.3 Nami:"I was almost scared to death just now. Fortunately, you are back."
Hina:"You heard what Vice Admiral Garp said just now. If you dare to bully us again, Hina will go and complain to Vice Admiral Garp!"
Hancock:"Huh, a bunch of cowards. Grandpa is still easy to talk to. He doesn't dislike me for being a pirate.""
Kujaku:"That's right. I don't know what you are so nervous about. Grandpa won't eat you."
Hina:"Assholes, you two call him grandpa your words too quickly!"
Nami:"Yeah, yeah, we haven't even gotten married yet. Why do you call him grandpa!"
Hancock: "Huh, that's how I want to call him. If you don't agree, come and fight me."
Kujaku:"Ha, I've been calling him that since I was a child. If you don't agree, go talk to my grandma."
