Chapter 446

One punch after another, Garp beat Luffy like a grandson. Everyone present was silent.

Karl also happened to watch the fun, supporting his chin and eating a melon on the side. Luo Bin walked slowly to Karl's side: "Why are you here?"

"You've experienced a Buster Call again! As a friend, I have to come and see what the situation is!"

"Now it seems you guys are very lucky. Fortunately, I didn't participate in this Buster Call! Otherwise, you wouldn't have been able to run away!"

Luo Bin smiled faintly: "Then we have to thank you?"

"I've heard about what happened on Enies Lobby. You'd better thank your companions! Now, do you still think this place is just a temporary resting place for you?"

Luo Bin shook her head and said with a smile: "This place is very good, I'm not planning to leave."

After Garp's careful care, Karl clearly felt that Luffy had changed quite a bit. First, his face became larger, and there were many more bumps on his head.

It was just that his eyes seemed a bit unconvinced, but Garp didn't want to hit him anymore anyway; it was easy to beat Luffy into an idiot.

"Talking about Red Hair every day, do you even know what kind of pirate that Red Hair is!"

Luffy blinked his eyes, recalling in his mind what his grandfather said just now about the Red Hair pirate crew, but he didn't remember it very clearly, his head hurt.

"Shanks? Are Shanks and the others okay?"

Garp sneered: "Okay? They are doing better than anyone."

"Among the pirates who are as numerous as stars, only four pirates rule the second half of the Grand Line like emperors. The world calls them the Four Emperors, and Shanks is one of them."

"The only ones who can contend with the power of these four people are Navy Headquarters and the Warlords of the Sea. Once these three major forces lose their balance, it will produce a huge force sufficient to cause the world's balance to collapse!"

Luo Bin was slightly shocked. She had always been mixing in the four seas before and only came to the Grand Line in recent years. She really didn't know much about the Four Emperors.

Was Shanks, whom Luffy always had on his lips, actually such a figure?

The reactions of the others were about the same as Luo Bin's. One was a Navy Hero grandfather, and the other was a pirate guide known as one of the Four Emperors. Luffy's background was truly... terrifying.

Although Luffy didn't understand too much, it looked like Shanks should be doing pretty well now, so he took off the straw hat on his back and looked at it with nostalgia.

"As long as Shanks is okay..."

Garp's eyes widened: "Okay? What kind of joke are you making? Didn't I tell you just now? That guy Red Hair has been living very miserably these past few years!"

"Ah! What?"

Garp looked at Karl nonchalantly, then said faintly: "These past few years, Shanks's crew members have been replaced batch after batch. Do you know why?"

Luffy swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "Why?"

"Because Shanks's crew members were all killed by a powerful Navy officer! The ones who survived were only Shanks and his few old subordinates; everyone else died!"

"To make up for fresh blood, Shanks had to recruit new crew members. However, that powerful Navy officer launched attacks on the Red Hair pirate crew again and again, so much so that it's hard for Shanks's new crew members to survive for more than a year."

"Didn't you always like to go to the tavern to find Shanks in Foosha Village before? There were a lot of people then, right? How many do you remember?"

Luffy clenched his fists, recalling his childhood life in his mind: Shanks pirate crew, tavern, Makino, Lucky Roux, Beckman...

"Although I can't name some of them, as long as I see them, I will definitely recognize them."

Garp sneered and said: "I'm sorry, you don't have a chance anymore, because the members of the Red Hair pirate crew who landed in Foosha Village back then now only have 5 people left, including Shanks!"

Praising first and then criticizing, Garp used this method to let Luffy understand that it's not so easy to be a pirate.

As the saying goes, there is always someone stronger than the strong; one mountain is higher than another!

Even pirates as strong as Shanks still had people who could chase and kill them, let alone small characters like you.

To tell the truth, if he hadn't greeted Karl in his early years, Luffy probably wouldn't have even been able to leave the East Blue. ===== CHAPTER 448 =====
