"Hey, where's the garbage here?"
Just as Yeyin was about to leave, a childish voice rang in his ears.
"What is this…?"
"Luffy, Ace, Sabo?"
Seeing the three little ones in front of him, Yeyin recalled their information from memory.
The reason Yeyin had been here all along was to see if he could wait for these three kids to show up.
Because Yeyin didn't know the way!
Although he had some impressions of certain things here, he didn't have a detailed map!
"Hey, are you mute?"
"My treasure, where did it go?"
Luffy asked again.
"Ace, how old are you?"
Yeyin directly asked.
"I'm 9 years old, what about it?" Ace replied with an annoyed expression.
"Nine years old?"
Upon hearing Ace's words, it meant that Sabo would be setting sail in another year.
This fool Luffy still hadn't eaten the Devil Fruit yet.
But in less than a year, he would be eating it.
"Be my little brother!"
"I'm twelve this year!"
Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Yeyin's face as he slowly said.
"Do you want to be our big brother?"
"Then we'll have to see your strength!"
Ace, being impatient, swung the steel pipe in his hand and attacked.
"Bang bang bang…"
In the next moment, the three of them covered their heads and squatted on the ground, looking stubbornly at Yeyin.
It was a joke; this half-year of training wasn't for nothing.
In addition to the attribute bonuses from picking up garbage, he had also trained in Armament Haki.
Against these three little kids, it was easy for him.
"Once I become your big brother, all the treasures I gain will be given to you."
"And I will also prepare the ship for you when you're ready to set sail."
"So, what do you think? Want to consider it?"
Yeyin looked like a sly uncle trying to coax children with a lollipop, a devious expression on his face.
"I always feel like you're not that kind-hearted!"
Ace said directly.
"I…"
"Bang!"
Before Sabo could finish, Yeyin punched him again.
"You can't beat me, and I don't want your treasures."
"If you don't acknowledge me as your big brother, I might just go tell Dadan about the treasure in that tree!"
Yeyin directly pulled out his trump card.
At this time, the treasure was more important to the three of them than their own lives.
"Big brother!"
The three instantly called him "big brother" with heartfelt respect.
"Uh… that was easy!"
"Let's go to Windmill Village; your big brother will treat you to a feast first."
Yeyin said generously.
According to the original storyline, Shanks should be arriving here soon.
And if he was around the three little ones, he would also encounter another legendary figure—Garp.
Anyone of these two would be top-notch even if they just threw away some garbage!
As for going out to sea, Yeyin didn't have that idea at all!
Whoever wants to be the Pirate King can go ahead; the Celestial Dragons have nothing to do with him.
A life of picking up garbage—how could that not be appealing?
Upon hearing that Yeyin was treating them to food, smiles appeared on the faces of Luffy and the others.
They immediately took Yeyin away from there.
Soon, they arrived at Windmill Village and entered a banquet bar.
"Wow, it's Miss Makino's bar!"
Seeing the green-haired Makino, Yeyin realized where he was.
