Chapter 638 Maginot’s Tavern
Windmill Village.
The cute and playful Ghost Heart sailed slowly from the calm sea.
The unfamiliar boat attracted many fishermen around them to look sideways, but when they saw the white sail on the mast, everyone quickly relaxed and focused on fishing and selling goods.
If it's not a pirate ship, everything will be fine.
In fact, even if it is a pirate ship, the residents of Windmill Village will not be very worried, because on the other side of the port pier, another strange-looking naval warship is moored. The bow of the ship is a huge dog head holding a bone.
On the deck of the Ghost Heart, Adrian looked at the dog-headed battleship from a distance, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
‘This time when I came to Windmill Village, I finally met Garp, who often goes home to visit. I don’t know how far the family status battle between him and Barrett has gone, and who is on top and who is on the bottom now...'
Ever since Ace's location information was relayed to Barrett, the devil heir who once made a name for himself on the sea changed his job to become a devil daddy. He has not been heard of in these years. The news of going to sea again to stir up the storm.
Adrian did not doubt that Barrett was secretly captured by the Navy Headquarters or the World Government and brought into Impel Down.
Because once such a famous and powerful pirate is caught, the World Economic News will definitely publicize it.
'Recall the time when Luffy was sent to Windmill Village, and the time when all the red-haired Shanks came to East China Sea, it was probably the past two years... I don't know if I can encounter that person from Windmill Village this time. A future chosen one. ’
Adrian's eyes slowly moved away from the dog-headed battleship and looked into the calm and peaceful Windmill Village with smoke curling up. A light flashed in his eyes.
Luffy's specific birthplace is very vague. Even Adrian is not clear about it. He only knows that he was sent to Windmill Village by Garp when he was very young and handed over to the Monkey family's exclusive nanny, the Bandit. Dadan took care of him, and later became half-brothers with Ace and Sabo.
Adrian looks forward to meeting Luffy directly in Windmill Village this time, and triggering his dream mission at the same time. After all, he is the future Son of Destiny!
But even if it is not triggered, Adrian will not be regretful, because Luffy's dream mission will definitely not be deviated in any way, and the completion time must be more than ten years later. There will be many opportunities to trigger this [One Piece] in the future. Hidden dream mission!
When they came to Windmill Village during this trip, what Adrian paid more attention to was Douglas Barrett, the descendant of the devil who had been living in seclusion in Windmill Village for many years!
As one of the few top sea masters, Adrian is eager for Barrett's S-class challenge mission.
Having met Barrett several times before, Adrian was always worried that if he overstimulated him, the duplicitous and arrogant ghost would directly take Ace to escape from Windmill Village or the East China Sea, which would significantly change the original plan of the three protagonist brothers. Destiny, there is no need to worry this time.
Because no matter how much Adrian beats Barrett this time, Ace will definitely have a grandpa by his side to look after him.
‘Done! ’
The Ghost Heart was docked steadily at the port pier. Adrian, Love and the others slowly stepped off the ship and entered this peaceful East China Sea village.
……
Maginot's Banquet Tavern is the best tavern in Windmill Village that has emerged in the past two years. It has defeated many rival taverns and is widely praised by residents for its low prices and delicious food.
Adrian and his party left the pier and strolled around the Windmill Village for a while before arriving at the door of this widely recommended banquet tavern.
As soon as the door of the tavern was opened, the young female boss standing behind the wooden bar looked over knowingly.
"What do you guests want to have? Wine, or drinks?"
Adrian offered a glass of orange juice, and Love and Robin also offered their requests.
While listening, Maginot carefully recorded all of this in her notebook.
Adrian is also paying attention to this young female boss. She is about fifteen or sixteen years old. She has short dark green hair under a yellow plaid turban. Her fair and delicate oval face is dotted with a pair of clean and energetic eyes. Even though Even when recording the menu, he did not forget to show a gentle smile to the guests.
'When I came to Windmill Village before, I never met Maginot, but now I see a young girl who is about to grow up... Her gentle temperament is indeed very eye-catching. No wonder she is always regarded as a fragrance. Kesna boy's mistress...'
Adrian's eyes fluctuated slightly.
Although Maginot did not appear much in the original work, as a beautiful woman with outstanding appearance (especially among a group of strange female pirates), she also implicated two generations of Straw Hat boys, Luffy and Shanks, and was still given a lot of attention. People were very impressed.
Two years after the war, when Maginot appeared again, she directly transformed into a mother holding a child.
It is precisely because of this intelligence information that many people speculate that the female tavern owner is the wife of the Sea Emperor Shanks...
‘It makes sense. ’
Adrian's gaze seemed to be noticed by Maginot. The gentle female owner of the tavern smiled at him and then said: "The drinks and food will be ready in about five minutes. Guests, please wait a moment."
Under the guidance of the proprietress, Adrian and his group walked towards the vacant corner of the tavern. Along the way, they heard the surrounding residents of Windmill Village talking about:
"Have you heard? The bandits in Gorbo Mountain have found a new boss."
"I heard from the second uncle of my brother's mother-in-law's sister-in-law that the new boss of the bandits is a giant who looks like a monster and can easily chop down more than a dozen big trees!"
"Hiss...How long can that firewood last for?"
"It's not just that! After the bandits found the new boss, Gorbo Mountain became a completely restricted area. I heard people said that there are always ghosts of unjust deaths wandering in that mountain. A few outsiders entered and Never came out again.”
"Isn't Lieutenant General Garp back? Can we ask him to get rid of the bandits? Especially the monster leader?"
Listening to the residents of Windmill Village talking about "ghost stories in the mountain village", Sanji, who was still introverted, turned slightly pale with fright. The other little ones were fine.
Adrian listened with great interest.
Barrett had lived in the back hill of Windmill Village for so many years, so it was impossible for him to hide from the residents of Windmill Village. It was only natural that when his terrifying appearance was discovered, he was regarded as a demon from hell.
It's just the battle between Garp and Barrett...
Well, Adrian’s target doesn’t include Garp’s bad old man anyway, the heroic Lieutenant General’s challenge mission is still in the cool-down period!
Maginot brought the drinks and food and returned behind the bar.
At this moment, the wooden door of the tavern was pushed open from the outside, and a young marine wearing a dark gray top hat, a suit of the same color, and a coat of justice on his back entered from the outside.
As the navy walked towards the bar, he habitually glanced inside the banquet tavern and quietly looked at the guests in the tavern. This was also his long-standing professional habit, so as to collect surrounding intelligence as soon as possible.
However, at this moment, the navy's eyes caught a handsome man holding orange juice in the corner. His originally steady steps became stiff and his breath became disordered.
The young Adjutant Bogart howled inwardly.
‘Go to the back mountain and ask for Lieutenant General Garp! ’(End of this chapter)
