Chapter 40 Line Up Part 2
Chapter 40 Line Up Part 2
In the Valueless Soldier queue, Rowen pointed to his nose and looked to his left and right side, and found that everyone around him was casting all kinds of envy, jealousy, and admiration look and they were all looking at him.
The Valueless Soldiers are not qualified to get off the ship first, not to mention the Huadu West Island (Flower Capital) Queen who came to meet Garp, the true pinnacle of power! Being able to disembark with Garp represents the trust and optimism that Garp has in him, and his success is just around the corner!
And… Garp has chosen his right side for Rowen to stand in which is quite good as it shows that Riwen has a high status in the Marines for him to be able to stand next to the Marine Hero Garp!!!
The Marine Headquarters soldiers know that since Garp defeated Rocks more than 30 years ago and became the world-famous “Marine Hero”, only one person has stood on his right-hand side on some serious occasions like these!
That person is the current Marine Admiral, “Aokiji” Kuzan!
Perhaps there is another…One of the new Marines who were assigned to East Blue Loguetown as its keeper last year, the Logia Smoke-Smoke Devil Fruit Ability User, Smoker. They have heard that he also stood on Garp’s right side for an occasion.
But that time was only in East Blue when Garp was meeting with a local country leader, and at the same time he was visiting some of his friends and he brought Smoker with him. Compared with Grand Line’s dignified “Huadu West Island (Flower Capital)”, the gap between these two occasions is huge!
Even Rear Admiral Trane, who had mastered two-color Haki and who is proficient in Rokushiki and Swordsmanship, is just standing on his left hand. It is self-evident that Garp attaches great importance to Rowen to receive this honor.
For a moment, countless soldiers couldn’t help holding their breath and cast a look up at Rowen.
“Vice-Admiral Garp, isn’t it too early?”
Trane was not jealous of Rowen, the word “Talent”, he had already seen it thoroughly when he reached his position. But Rowen is only a Chore Boy now, and his strength is still far behind them. Putting him on the right-hand side is slightly wrong.
“It’s okay, I believe in the kid.”
“Well, if you insist…”
Trane stopped and, like the rest of the soldiers, paid close attention to Rowen.
The details of this situation are not clear to Rowen as a traverser. He simply thought that Garp was optimistic about himself, and wanted him to experience the outside world first, and gain some popularity… Bringing his promising juniors around to introduce other big people, this is a common care method in any world.
Since he has decided to join the Marines, even if it is just for the sake of growing stronger, the importance of the connections in this Sea and the reputation in the Sea is self-evident!
Garp was able to do anything he wanted because of his reputation. Thinking about that in his heart, Rowen stepped out of the queue and leaned forward firmly.
Regardless of the level of government, this atmosphere and these people are pretty good…
But he didn’t show any mercy as he was still feeling a little vengeful, and smiled while speaking: “Is this really okay, Vice-Admiral Garp? I’m just Chore Boy!”
Garp stared at him with old eyes and spoke: “What are you speaking so much nonsense! I’ll give you two seconds! Get over here before I personally make you!”
Shuā!
Zī Zī Zī Zī Zī Zī Zī!
As soon as his voice fell, the thunder flickered. A humanoid shape appeared ten meters away from Garp while the corner of his mouth was twitching. Suddenly, he gave a wicked smile and whispered.
“I bet five Belly that you would not dare to hit me now.”
Because of their location, the crowd below is clearly visible. In addition to the royal family who is here to welcome them according to etiquette, there are countless onlookers who come to pay homage to “Marine Hero’s glory”.
“Hey, I said you kid…”
Garp was immediately angry, Trane’s eyes twitched frantically, and he gave a dry cough: “Well, it’s time to go…”
Seeing that the knuckles of his fingers on the hilt of the sword were turning white, if these two guys continued to mess around, Trane would be ready to be chased and sent to the military court, but he will definitely draw his sword and cut these two!
Without knowing what Trane was thinking about, Garp hummed and ignored Rowen, and took a step forward, stepping on the stairs first.
“Everyone… Salute!”
Accompanied by a loud shout, the soldiers neatly raised their right hands to their foreheads. There was no rhythm. They only heard a muffled sound. The hundreds of soldiers who were standing calmly just now raised their right hand at the same time and stood in attention without moving a muscle, the scene is shocking!
Standing in line is not only a way of showing respect for Allied Kingdom Members but also a way for the Marines to show their strength and discipline to the people so that the people can feel at ease from the Pirates in this sea!
For a time, hundreds of people sighed in admiration and gained a new understanding of the imposing Marines.
“Are they the soldiers from Marine Headquarters? They are really different from the soldiers from the Marine branch!”
“That’s Vice-Admiral Garp, the Marine Hero who captured Pirate King Roger!”
“Mom, mom, I will be like Vice-Admiral Garp when I grow up!”
“Hehehe, then you have to eat obediently so that you can be a Marine and you will have a strong body!”
Under the adoration of the people, the three people, led by Garp, came to the Huadu West Island (Flower Capital) Queen in the port lineup.
“Welcome to Huadu West Island (Flower Capital)!”
The Queen nodded slightly, her face was filled with a smile, she did not overstep, nor did she speak Artificially, she was enthusiastic and sincere.
Shuā!
The other two saluted silently. Fortunately, Rowen, as a Rumble-Rumble Fruit Ability user, had increased reaction speed, otherwise, he would have made a fool of himself.
“What?”
With cold sweat on his forehead and withdrawing his hand, Rowen suddenly noticed that Garp was looking at him with a strange look on his face.
He didn’t dare to look directly at Huadu West Island (Flower Capital) Queen, clasping his head, and suffocating a sentence for a long time: “Then… long time no see Rosa.”
Huadu West Island (Flower Capital) Queen is not young, she is almost the same age as Garp. Although she is good at maintaining her charm, she still has no hesitation in betraying her with a frown on her face.
Wearing a gorgeous long dress decorated with green leaves and roses, and wearing a golden laurel crown, inlaid with an emerald the size of an eyeball. Her whole persona exudes a Queen’s unique noble and mature temperament.
When she was young, she would have been a beautiful woman who was the dream of thousands of young people!
Seeing Garp’s appearance, Huadu West Island (Flower Capital) Queen, known as “Rosa”, raised her mouth and raised her right hand wrapped in tulle at him like a business person, asking him to kiss it.
“It’s been a long time indeed, Vice-Admiral Garp.”
Queen Rosa said slowly: “If it weren’t for the King’s 70th birthday, I would have died of old age before seeing you, Garp, for the last time.”
Kaka…
Under Rowen’s subtle gaze, Garp, who just bends down and is careless, stiffens at a speed visible to the naked eye for a moment. The muscle on his face harden… Rowen estimates that he wouldn’t even be able to stab him with a knife at this point!
There is adultery!
There is adultery!!!
The fire of gossip in Rowen’s eyes is burning, Dragon’s mother, Luffy’s GrandMother, Garp’s wife, this is an eternal problem that has plagued countless Pirate fans!
Is that secret going to be revealed here?
After saying a few more words, the Queen announced the dark history of this old asshole!
