Chapter 855: Hero Capone Has Arrived! Red-Haired Is Panicking! [Request Subscription]

Time flew by.

Day and night alternated.

In the blink of an eye,

two days passed.

On this day,

the sun shone brightly,

the sky stretched clear and vast.

Windmill Village.

The harbor shore.

The sea breeze drifted gently, waves churned wildly.

Flowing ceaselessly,

crashing against each other.

Splash splash!

The crisp, pleasant sound of waves crashing echoed like beautiful musical notes all around.

Golden sunlight spilled down from the horizon, casting upon the sea, reflecting dazzling glares that shimmered wildly like gold.

Due to the battle between Lu En and Red-Haired, Magino's tavern had collapsed entirely. Yet after two days of reconstruction, the tavern had already taken shape with its main structure and corners.

With the help of all villagers,

the tavern was rebuilt with extraordinary efficiency.

Judging by the current pace,

the tavern would be restored to its former state within a week.

In just two short days, the main structure of the tavern had already been erected.

It goes without saying.

It was clear that the day of its full completion would not be far off.

Villagers, smiling, threw themselves into the work of rebuilding the tavern.

They worked busily, chatting and laughing as they went.

Harmonious and joyful,

full of vitality.

Large planks of wood were carried by them into the tavern, then secured by specialized workers…

Morning.

Windmill Village was immersed in a bustling atmosphere.

Even the old village chief had come early to supervise.

Two days had passed since Little Lufei's shipwreck.

Over these two days,

Little Lufei endured the villagers' kind scolding and warnings, leaving him deeply downcast, yet he knew this time he had been too reckless.

In response,

Little Lufei listened humbly without rebuttal.

Two days ago, Lu En personally hunted down the Near-Sea King; its corpse was brought back to Windmill Village and became the villagers' main food source these past days.

The Near-Sea King's corpse was too massive.

Its dozens-of-tons-heavy body loomed like a towering mountain…

Even with the entire village sharing the meat, after these days, only half of the Near-Sea King's corpse had been consumed.

I have to admit.

The meat of the Sea King was exceptionally delicious.

It earned the praise of the entire village.

The delicious meat of the Near-Sea King allowed the villagers of Windmill Village to taste such a marvelous Sea King delicacy for the first time.

Even all members of the Red-Haired Pirates, thanks to saving Little Lufei, were granted the privilege of eating the delicious meat of the Near-Sea King.

Since the Red-Haired Pirates arrived in Windmill Village, roughly three days had passed.

Having traveled a great distance from the New World and stayed here three days, it was time for Red-Haired and his crew to set sail again.

Red-Haired came to Windmill Village, of course, for Little Lufei.

Unfortunately…

All his plans had been ruthlessly shattered by Lu En.

This left Red-Haired deeply frustrated and helpless.

But fortunately,

in the end,

he had still managed to temporarily give Little Lufei the meaningful straw hat.

And he made a man's promise with Little Lufei…

In time,

when Little Lufei became a mighty pirate, he would reclaim the straw hat.

Moreover,

Red-Haired's original reason for coming to Windmill Village was to have Little Lufei, as Joy Boy, accidentally consume the legendary Nika Fruit.

But this plan had been stolen by Lu En.

But in the end, the outcome still moved in a favorable direction.

At the very least…

The one who is Joy Boy, Little Lufei, truly swallowed the Nikka Fruit destined for him.

Just this alone, Bai Huzi was already fully satisfied.

Although it was regrettable…

He had not been able to deliver the Nikka Fruit to Little Lufei himself.

But for this outcome, he naturally felt no dissatisfaction.

At this moment.

In a small courtyard of Windmill Village.

With Bai Huzi at their head, all members of the Red-Haired Pirates sat here, each holding a cup of wine, drinking heartily and laughing loudly as they conversed.

A gentle breeze stirred,

A pungent, rich aroma of wine spread out from the courtyard in all directions.

The scent of wine filled the air,

Its fragrance drifted ten miles away.

"Boss, when will we set sail and leave Windmill Village?"

Fatty Luo Qi Lu, holding a chicken leg and eating with grease dripping from his mouth, asked Bai Huzi curiously.

They had stayed in Windmill Village for several days…

Even the Red-Haired Pirates' crew had gradually begun to feel uncomfortable.

They were great pirates returning from the New World, accustomed to crisis upon crisis there. But suddenly arriving in this peaceful, tranquil sea near Windmill Village, they found themselves deeply unsettled.

What they longed for more was…

The days of fighting, battling, and clashing with ruthless pirates in the New World.

This was their purpose for setting sail!

If they sought only a quiet, stable life, they would never have become pirates, hunted by all.

Yet now,

In Windmill Village, located in the East Sea, their weapons had nearly rusted over these past days.

This tranquil life clearly did not suit them, now brimming with fiery passion.

If they could choose,

They would rather return to the New World and join the struggles among the Four Emperors!

"Yeah, Boss, I'm so bored here my body's turning to rust."

"When can we return to the New World?"

"This place is too peaceful—even the shadow of a pirate is nowhere to be seen. It's utterly boring."

"If this life were waiting for me in old age, I could accept it. But now, I still prefer the thrilling life of the New World."

One by one, the Red-Haired Pirates voiced their inner thoughts.

Hearing this,

Bai Huzi smiled and replied: "Already missing the seas of the New World? Then today is the day we set sail and return to the New World."

In fact,

Even he, as captain, had begun to miss the deadly days of the New World.

The peaceful life here simply did not suit a pirate like him, who lived by the edge of the blade.

As Bai Huzi's words fell,

All Red-Haired Pirates burst into joy, their faces filled with anticipation and excitement.

It was clearly evident,

They could hardly wait to return to the New World at once.

"Boss, you're brilliant!"

"The New World—it's been so long since we left."

"I wonder if Kaido, Ye Su Bu, and the others have attacked our territories while we were gone?"

"If they dare do that, then the moment we return to the New World, we'll turn their territories upside down!"

"Whoever dares seize what belongs to us, we will never let it go."

"So what if they're Four Emperors? We've fought them before!"

"…"

Voices rose in chorus.

Among them,

Three officers—Ben Beike Man, Ye Su Bu, and Luo Qi Lu—also showed expressions full of anticipation.

Having been away from the New World so long, they all missed the blade-edge life there.

At this moment,
