Pirates: Starting from being rescued by Roger

Chapter 21 Conversation with Shanks

"What are you laughing at?!" Luffy's angry voice came from beside Shanks. "It's so embarrassing for you! Why don't you beat him up! Even if they are outnumbered, you can't be bullied into laughing like this! You are not a man at all! You are not a pirate!" Luffy rushed. Shanks shouted.

Shanks was silent for a moment, glanced at Loki, then put the straw hat on his head and said to Luffy: "I can understand your feelings, but it's unnecessary to be angry just because some wine was spilled, right?"

"Ignore you, I don't want to deal with you cowards anymore!" Luffy said, sitting back at the bar and turning his back.

"Then what's the purpose of coming to the East China Sea? Wait a minute, kid! You can't eat that thing!" Loki was just about to say hello to Shanks when he saw Luffy take out one from a treasure box. The devil fruit is ready to be delivered to the mouth...

Loki said as he dodged and came to Luffy's side, making a gesture to grab the Devil Fruit. Shanks stood up from the ground in an instant and grabbed Loki's arm, exuding an amazing aura. The pirates in the hall also put down the wine and food in their hands and raised their weapons to aim at Loki...

"Huh?" Luffy turned around blankly and took a big bite of the purple devil fruit in his hand...

"Haha." Loki let out a chuckle and shook off Shanks' hand, turned around, took a chair next to him, sat down, and took a photo of Luffy holding the Devil Fruit in his hand... "Sure enough, this The guy should know the real name of the rubber fruit and let Luffy eat it on purpose. Otherwise, he should have stopped Luffy immediately instead of watching Luffy bite it... All the signs after that showed that this guy was here. It’s a big game, but no one knows exactly what he’s going to do..."

"What's wrong?" Luffy ate the fruit in his hand with a question mark on his face. In the blink of an eye, half of the fruit had been swallowed into his stomach.

"It's bad, Captain, what Luffy is holding is the "rubber fruit" taken from the enemy ship." A fat man wearing a turban and funny glasses said with a shocked look on his face as he pointed at the empty box. The pirate behind the fat man also looked shocked.

"This transition is really hard. Are you not considering me at all? Let's see how you continue to act!" Loki sat next to him and thought to himself.

"What? Spit it out quickly!" Shanks said, picking up Luffy upside down and throwing him down hard...

There was a "pop" sound, and Luffy's face came into close contact with the floor - Luffy's legs stretched out and returned to Shanks' hands. "Hey!!" The pirates around him exclaimed.

"What happened just now?" Luffy asked in confusion as he rubbed his face.

Shanks pulled Luffy's face and shouted at him: "What you just ate is the rubber fruit. It is a secret treasure in the sea called "Devil Fruit"! Anyone who eats it will turn into a rubber man!! I’ll never be able to swim again for the rest of my life!!!”

"What? No way!!" Luffy exclaimed. "You idiot!!" Shanks shot back.

"Well, it doesn't matter. Although I will be a landlubber my whole life, as long as I never fall into the water, it will be fine." Luffy immediately accepted this fact. With that said, Luffy pulled his cheek and ran out of the bar to show off to the villagers...

"Bah bang bang!" At this time, there was applause in the bar. "Brothers, your acting skills are really good. It's a pity not to be an actor." Loki clapped his hands and suddenly his eyes condensed and he rushed towards Maginot with momentum. The waitress rolled her eyes and fell towards Shanks... …

"How domineering!" The other pirates said in shock.

"So now can you tell me why you have stayed in the East China Sea for more than half a year? Everyone of the red-haired pirates. Don't tell me that you are here for vacation." Loki said, taking out the bag from his bag. A dozen reward orders were placed on the table.

After Shanks placed Makina at the counter, he came out and asked with a serious face: "Who are you? I don't believe you are a reporter. Are you from the World Government? You want to trouble us. Anytime……"

"Oh? You actually think I'm from the World Government? That's ridiculous. Do you think Roger would give his sword and gun to the navy? This is too ridiculous! Hahahaha..."

"No matter who you are, as long as I catch you, I will make you say it..." At this time, a pirate threw a knife at Shanks, Shanks pulled it out and pointed at Loki and said.

"Well, don't be nervous. Although I have plans to discuss things with you, but not now, and you don't want this village to be destroyed. If this happens, your plan here will be completely ruined..." Loki looked at it relaxedly. Shanks. Although the red-haired pirates are very strong, Loki is confident that he can escape unscathed. If it really doesn't work, just reveal your identity. You have to say it sooner or later anyway.

Shanks was silent for a moment and put away his sword, and the pirates around him also put away their weapons...

"Is this right? I've wanted to get to know you for a long time. Sit down and let's have a good chat." Loki took a chair from the side and placed it in front of him.

"What do you want to talk about?" Shanks stopped and looked into Loki's eyes warily and asked.

"Why Luffy? Is it really okay to give the grandson of a naval hero the rubber fruit that he finally obtained with great difficulty? No, it's the Human Fruit, Phantom Beast Species, and Nika form. Are you not afraid that the world government will let this fruit eat after it is discovered? Will the fruit disappear forever in front of the world?" Loki actually didn't care at all about Shanks' answer but still asked with a serious face.

Shanks looked solemn after hearing the words "Everyone's Fruit". After hearing what Loki said, he looked at Loki deeply and said, "You know a lot. Now I can confirm that you are not the World Government." Because they will not tell their agents the true name of this fruit..." "As for why I chose Luffy, I think he is similar to Captain Roger in some ways. Is this a good enough reason?" "About the world? The government, I don’t think they will pay attention to Windmill Village, a forgotten corner of the Eastern Capital... As for Garp, I don’t think he would care even if he knew about Luffy..."

"Of course, you are free to choose what you want. I am asking you this purely to satisfy my own curiosity. Well, I have finished asking, and now I should go about my business." After Loki finished speaking, he was about to go. Get up and leave.

"Wait a minute, I've already answered your question and in exchange you have to answer mine." Shanks held down Loki and said.

"Okay, you can ask whatever you want, and I will answer whatever I can." Loki sat back in his chair.

"Who are you? Don't tell me the identity you made up. I have my own judgment."

"What? You don't believe what I just said? Haha" Loki said with a smile: "My real name is Loki, and I am traveling around the sea now. It is also true that I am a part-time reporter. After all, can photos of big scenes like just now be sold? Less money.”

"You!" Shanks was so angry that he quickly controlled his emotions and asked, "What is your relationship with Captain Roger?"

"Oh! I finally got the idea to ask. In fact, this is what you care about most, after all, your captain's sword and gun appeared on a stranger..." Loki looked relaxed.

"Answer me!" Shanks' face turned a little blue.

"Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore. I thought you were an interesting person, but I didn't expect you to be like this...Roger spent his last days with me and a woman, so I can be considered his disciple." .Are you satisfied with this answer?" Loki said calmly.

"Hey!!! A disciple of "Pirate King" Roger?" The surrounding pirates all stood up and looked at Loki in shock. Shanks also had a look of understanding on his face.

"Then what is the purpose of your coming to the East China Sea? I don't believe you came to me specifically." Shanks said with some self-deprecation.

"Of course I'm not here to find you, don't be so pretentious!" Loki mocked. "But I did come to the East China Sea to meet a person. I said before that this person has some relationship with you. How about going with me?" Loki sent an invitation.

"Oh? Really? Then I need to change my clothes and dress up properly. Wait for me here for a while." Shanks said and walked out of the bar.
