Shanks, the Overlord of One Piece

"Xiao Hei, why are you here?" Shanks looked confused. Why did this guy always disappear and reappear suddenly, and always when he was in embarrassment.

"Squeak!!!" The little monkey jumped out and looked around Shanks with a look of gloating, as if to say: You are so powerful, how come you were hung up and almost cooked.

It looked at Shanks sympathetically, took out a piece of meat from the bulging backpack, and handed it to Shanks like a charity.

"You still have a conscience!" Shanks didn't want to show off to him. His tied hands suddenly broke free and the rope was broken. He took the meat and sat down to eat!

The people around looked at them blankly, wondering what was going on with this man and the monkey.

"Um...excuse me. Do you know this cute monkey? His name is: Xiao Hei? His name is so cute!" Maginot asked in a low voice.

"Yes, it is my companion, called Xiao Hei. Although it is very powerful, it is not cute at all!" Shanks said as he ate, wondering in his heart: Why do women say it is so cute? It's so cute. Make trouble!

"Xiao Hei, give me some meat! ...By the way, do you have wine? Give me half!" Shanks said casually, feeling that this was normal.

"Zhizhi!!" The little monkey screamed dissatisfied and thought to himself: If you say that to me, I'll give you meat, but if you want half of the wine, there's no way you can do it!

The little monkey took out some more meat and squeaked a few times to express that he had no wine and would not give Shanks any wine.

"Okay, forget it. When I finish eating, I will take you to buy some good wine." Shanks completely believed the meaning of its expression.

"It can actually understand words and communicate with people. It's so cute! Don't you think so, Dadan?" Maginot was shocked.

Maginot is the daughter of a tavern owner, and she helps out in the shop on weekdays.Today at noon, the little monkey sneaked into their store and looked for something to eat, but she found him.

The little monkey has a great trick when he meets a beautiful woman: pretend to be stupid and act cute!

At that time, Maginot was attracted by the little monkey's pitiful and cute movements and expressions, so the little monkey successfully got a delicious meal and a backpack of food and wine.

In the afternoon, Dadan went to the store to buy food. She was good friends with Maginot, so she invited her to play, so the little monkey also came.

"It's not cute at all! I don't like it either!" Dadan said directly. She felt that the little monkey didn't like it because of its coquettish look. Moreover, she was rejected when she wanted to hug it, which made her very unhappy.

"I don't want you to like her! I like beautiful women!" The little monkey was disdainful and ran to Maginot's side, hugging her feet and pretending to be cute.

"Damn monkey!"

This is the voice of Shanks and Dadan!

"Go get his things!" Dadan suddenly ordered the leading bandit.

"Yes, boss, I'll go right away." Since the boss didn't pursue the issue at this time, he wanted to continue to pester him.

After getting his things, Shanks had no intention of staying here anymore, so he looked at the little monkey and shouted: "Xiao Hei, it's time for us to leave. Let's go down the mountain and find a place to stay while it's still dark!"

"Squeak!!!" The little monkey didn't want to leave. He finally met a beautiful woman who opened a tavern, so how could he leave so easily.

Seeing the little monkey's reluctant expression, Maginot said, "Why don't you come and stay in our store? Is there any room available there?"

"Squeak!!!" The little monkey raised his hands high in the air, fully agreeing.

"Then... I'll trouble you." Shanks felt happy. This time, the little monkey did a good thing. Otherwise, he would have been living on the street and penniless.

"It's okay." Maginot said with a smile, then faced Dadan, "Dadan, I'm sorry, I'll come to your place another day, don't be angry!"

"It doesn't matter!... But do you really trust him? He is a pirate!" Dadan looked at Shanks unkindly.

"Hey, you look down on me so much. Don't confuse me with other pirates. How could I hurt an innocent person and be my benefactor!" Shanks said displeased.

"Squeak!!!" The little monkey rarely supported Shanks, squeaked, and kept gesticulating with his hands to express his strong dissatisfaction with Dadan.

"Okay, Dadan, don't worry. I believe him, not to mention how cute Xiao Hei is, he will definitely not harm me." Maginot smiled slightly, more confident than Shanks.

"Zhizhi!" The little monkey patted his chest and made a "Believe me?"

Wrong" look.

"No, I'm still worried!" With that, Dadan looked at the leading bandit and ordered: "You are responsible for escorting them down the mountain to the town."

"Yes, boss, don't worry." The leading bandit nodded.

...

"What are you talking about? No pirate dares to cause trouble in this town?"

From Machino's mouth, he learned that the island Shanks came to was actually the largest island in the East China Sea and the seat of the Kingdom of Goa. The place he was located was just like what he had seen on the wooden sign before, called: Windmill Village!

"Yes! Because this is the hometown of Vice Admiral of the Navy Headquarters and the hero Garp. Not everyone dares to come here to cause trouble."

With that said, Maginot approached Shanks and told him quietly: "Let me tell you, Garp came to our store today. So when you go to towns and villages, you must not say that you are a pirate, otherwise That’s troublesome.”

"Well, I know the naval hero Garp, he is very powerful!" Shanks said seriously.is not that right!I was beaten by Garp just today, and I’m still scared!

"Squeak!" The little monkey mused, looking at Shanks with sympathy, remembering the scene of him being beaten... It was so miserable!

The leading bandit trembled when he heard Garp's name. Although bandits are not as powerful as pirates, they are also enemies of the navy. How can he not be afraid of being a bandit in the hometown of a naval legend?

The sun was setting, in the evening.

Maginot took Shanks and the others to take a shortcut and went directly to Windmill Village.

Maginot introduced with a smile: "This is Windmill Village. Although the village is not big, the villagers help each other and get along well with each other. They are all kind people!"

Shanks nodded and looked at the scattered pedestrians on the street. Every face was filled with happiness. He had experienced so much such an atmosphere, but he still rarely encountered such an atmosphere.

"Ma Qiluo, good evening!"

"Is this your friend?"

"Mackino, didn't you and Dadan leave? Why are you back?"

"Mackino, you have really grown up and become more and more beautiful!"

Many villagers greeted Maginot. It seemed that she was very popular in the village.

"Dadan, isn't that the female bandit boss? Why aren't the villagers here afraid of bandits?" Shanks suddenly noticed that many people had very dull expressions when talking about Dadan, and they didn't seem to regard Dadan as a bandit.

"What do you know? We are not those bandits who oppress the people. We have our own principles." The leading bandit said proudly, with a look of pride on his face.

"I'll tell you the details another day. It's getting late, so let's go to my store first." Maginot thought for a moment that it would be difficult to talk about this outside, and it couldn't be said in just one or two sentences.

"Miss Maginot, since you have arrived, I will go back to report to the boss that you are safe." The leading bandit said goodbye.

"Thank you for escorting me all the way. Please go back and tell Dadan that you are safe." Makino smiled.

The leading bandit nodded, turned and left.

"Let's go. When we get to the store, I'll treat you to something delicious!" Maginot looked at Shanks and the little monkey and said kindly.

"Squeak!" The little monkey was very excited when he heard that there was something delicious.

"Thank you very much!" Shanks acted very gentlemanly.But he was looked down upon by the little monkey.

...

"Here we are, this is my tavern, it's pretty good, isn't it!" Maginot proudly introduced.

The tavern is actually very ordinary, but Shanks can feel that Maginot likes it here very much, and it is also her home.

"Very good, I'm sure the wine smells good!" Shanks closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and pursed his lips.

"Zhizhi!" The little monkey was even more anxious and ran to the tavern in a blink of an eye.

"Let's go, I'll take you in." With that said, Maginot and Shanks walked into the tavern side by side.

It was almost closing time, and there was almost no one in the pub except for a bad old man.

"Grandpa Nagli, why are you here today?" Makino happily ran to the old man and shouted.

The bad old man looked back, his eyes fell on Shanks, and he was suddenly startled, "It's really you!"
