Chapter 38 - Chapter 38: Uno's Fame, Luffy's Life Experience!

See you at the restaurant, Bharati.

It is a floating restaurant located in the East Blue waters.

It looks like a giant ship with fish-shaped figureheads at both ends.

Many people come here specifically to taste the delicious food made by the owner and chef Zepp, and even important characters from Marine come here to eat.

After sailing, this very distinctive sea restaurant appeared in front of Uno and others.

"Sgei! What a big fish!"

Luffy drooled as he looked at the unique appearance of Barati.

This design can whet Luffy's appetite just by looking at it.

"Ding ding!"

Just as everyone was about to approach Bharati, a whistle sounded.

"Hai, Marine's warship?!"

A warship much larger than the Merry, with a conspicuous Marine logo painted on its mainsail, quickly approached the Merry.

The moment he saw the warship, Usopp's forehead suddenly broke out in sweat, and he exclaimed in surprise.

"Tsk, I met an annoying guy."

Zoro also felt troubled.

"Um?"

Uno was still looking at the warship with interest and suddenly looked at Nami hiding behind him with amusement.

"Well, I'm used to it."

Feeling Uno's gaze, Nami subconsciously hid behind Uno and blinked, her pretty face slightly red.

Since Orange Town, Uno has always protected her whenever she encountered danger, which has made Nami get used to it.

The moment Nami saw the Marine warship, she subconsciously ran behind Uno.

But I have to say, I feel really safe behind Uno.

Nami pursed her red lips as she watched Uno move his steps to better protect her behind him.

A sense of security is extremely precious to Nami, who experienced the murder of Bell-mère in front of her in her childhood and whose hometown, Kokoasi Village, is still under the violent rule of Arlong.

"It's a pirates flag I've never seen before."

On the deck of the Marine warship, a man wearing a white patterned suit, pink hair, dark skin, and iron ring boxing gloves appeared in front of Uno and others.

Looking at the Pirates flag of the Straw Hat Pirates, the man narrowed his eyes.

"I'm the captain of the Naval Headquarters, Iron Fist Finbuddy! Who's the captain? Tell me your name!"

Finbudi raised his fist and shouted.

"I'm Luffy!"

Luffy walked forward and yelled.

"I'm Usopp!"

Usopp also came up to join in the fun.

"I'm the captain! The Pirates flag was just confirmed."

Luffy glanced at Usopp, then shouted, identifying himself as the captain.

"I drew the Pirates flag!"

Usopp said.

Hearing Luffy and Usopp's antics, Uno's smile became a little strange.

I don't know if Luffy did it on purpose, but when he met a small character who was obviously not strong, Luffy's self-introduction was just "Luffy."

But if he meets a strong character, Luffy's self-introduction will be "I am Monkey D. Luffy."

"Luffy? A little character I've never heard of."

Finbudi sneered.

Finbudi, like Monka before him, is a Marine who believes that title is everything.

"The nameless Pirates are such an eyesore. I might as well just sink you."

Finbudi turned his gaze and looked at the other people on the pirates' ship.

Then, he saw Uno not far behind Luffy.

"!!!"

Fennbudi rubbed his eyes and looked at Uno's face again with wide eyes.

Cold sweat began to break out.

"Oh my god, 'Uranus' Uno?!!!"

Fennbudi exclaimed, making sure his eyes were not mistaken.

"You are a small character; can you be called Iron Fist? The same title as Marine Hero?"

Uno looked at Fennbudi with interest.

He took the same title as the Marine hero, Luffy's grandfather, Monkey D. Garp, and paraded around Garp's hometown, East Blue.

He is just a lieutenant in the headquarters, but he is very courageous.

"Sgei! Uno, you are really famous. Even the Marines in the headquarters know you."

Usopp looked at Uno in reverence.

They are truly the real Pirates!

"..."

When Fenbudi heard Uno's ridicule, the corners of his mouth twitched, but he didn't dare to refute.

He only dared to use this title to satisfy his desire in the East Blue, the weakest sea. If he were in the Naval Headquarters, he would be just an insignificant lieutenant, and there would be no need for a title.

But the man in front of me, 'Uranus' Uno, is completely different!

The owner of Conqueror's Haki! A super rookie who suddenly appeared!

Originally, as a small lieutenant in the headquarters, he did not understand the power of Conqueror's Haki.

After all, after the formation of a balance between the three major forces of the Four Emperors, the Marines, and the Shichibukai, fighting between Conqueror's Haki owners has rarely broken out in this sea.

But the World Economic News Agency's report on "Uranus" Uno also caused quite a stir in the Naval Headquarters.

Although Finbudi was inconspicuous in the Naval Headquarters, he was a member of the Naval Headquarters after all. The advantage of being in the headquarters was that some information could be obtained much more than in other places.

The qualifications of a king! Anyone who awakens is a powerful person with a great reputation on the sea!

Rumor has it that even the three high-ranking admirals of the headquarters do not have this kind of power.

Rumor has it that once one awakens this power, one will be trained as a future Admiral of Headquarters.

At worst, you can become an admiral candidate.

He was so young, yet he had already awakened Conqueror's Haki. Even though he arrogantly called himself 'Uranus,' those within the Marine who understood the value of Conqueror's Haki did not say that he was overestimating his own abilities.

It is natural for people with the qualities of a king to be arrogant.

Rumor has it that the headquarters has already begun discussing how much bounty to set for this man, and there are even rumors that it will be a terrifying number beyond imagination.

These rumors made Finbudi extremely jealous and envious. If he could awaken Conqueror's Haki, he wouldn't have to take the title of Iron Fist and indulge in bragging in East Blue, the weakest sea.

Admiral of Headquarters! What an honor and power it is.

How come the one who awakened such a powerful force was a damn pirate?

But if he could catch this guy, would he be able to rise to the top?

Finbudi sometimes has such fantasies.

As a result, now I meet this super newcomer.

Looking at Uno, who was looking at him with a half-smile, Fenbudi's forehead was covered with cold sweat.

This man looked terrifyingly strong just by standing there.

Only after meeting him did he realize that he didn't even have the courage to fight this man.

He remembered! Damn World Economic News Agency!

When reporting on this kid named Luffy, only his last name, Monkey, and the "D" that didn't know what it meant were enlarged and bolded.

His attention was focused on the name "Uranus," Uno, and he had long forgotten the name Luffy, which resulted in him not recognizing the identity of this boy named Luffy at first glance.

What should we do now? He just said he wanted to sink the pirate ship that "Uranus" Uno was on?

Cold sweat began to appear on Fennbudi's forehead.

"Marine hero? Who is it?"

At this moment, Luffy suddenly tilted his head, feeling that this title was somewhat familiar.

"You don't even know about Marine Heroes? Marine Hero Garp, this is common sense on the sea."

Nami looked at Luffy helplessly.

In the world government, 'D' is an absolute taboo, and with the existence of Monkey. D. Dragon, Garp's son and leader of the Revolutionary Army,

So in the external propaganda, just like the Pirate King's Gol.D.Roger was changed to Gol.Roger by the World Government,

Garp is also known to the outside world as Marine hero Garp or Garp the Fist.

The name Monkey D. Garp is known only to a few people in the ocean.

"Oh, it's Grandpa."

When Luffy heard the name, he thought of many bad memories and shuddered.

"Grandfather?!!!"

Nami, Usopp, and even Zoro all showed expressions of disbelief.

Joseph and Johnny hugged each other and looked at Luffy in shock.

"Wait, wait, my mind is a little confused."

Nami covered her head and shook it.

"Marine hero Garp is your grandfather? Your biological grandfather?"

Nami looked at Luffy in disbelief.

"That's right, Grandpa is very scary."

Luffy thought of Garp's behavior when he was training him. Even Luffy, who was usually a thick-skinned man, had a flash of fear in his eyes.

Uno looked at Luffy in amusement.

This family is indeed full of talents.

Garp's son, Monkey D. Dragon, became the leader of the revolutionary army.

As for Luffy, Garp gave him an exaggerated training in order to make him a Marine.

Either throw Luffy into the abyss, exile Luffy to a rain forest full of wild beasts in the middle of the night, or simply tie Luffy to a balloon and release him into the air.

While training Luffy in this way, he also shouted at Luffy to become a strong marine. It is conceivable how much psychological trauma this caused to the young Luffy.

Not to mention that Luffy had met Red Hair; even if he hadn't met him, it would be impossible for him to become a Marine under such circumstances.

"No matter who Luffy's grandfather is, he is a pirate now, and he is the man who will become the King of Pirates."

Uno looked at everyone who was still in shock and concluded with a smile.

"That's right! Hehehe!"

Luffy wiped away the shadow in his heart towards Garp, grinned, and shouted.

"Bonds increase, and entry loading progress increases."

It's easy to control Luffy.

Uno raised the corner of his mouth, then looked at Fenbudi, who was stunned by their conversation on the opposite warship.

"I heard that you want to sink our Pirates ship?"

Uno saw Finbudi's look and smiled.

"!!!"

At this time, Fenbudi was completely numb.
