One Piece Flying Anchor

"Luffy?"

"Hi Shanks!"

The straw hat appeared in Luffy's hand, "I'm sorry, I couldn't fulfill the promise and can't become the Pirate King. The straw hat will be returned to you."

Seeing the Straw Hat, Shanks finally believed that the person in front of him was Luffy.

"It's only been a few years, how come you've grown so tall? I can't believe my eyes!"

Shanks took the straw hat, with a hint of complexity in his eyes.

"Come on, come up and talk slowly."

"Your brothers also come together, I will prepare the best wine and meat for everyone."

Luffy greeted and invited Shanks to land.

The soldiers, whose backs were soaked with nervous sweat, widened their eyes.

Watching the two of them walking side by side towards the station.

"What do you mean, why did General Black Monkey invite people to the island?"

"Needless to say, it must be to lure the enemy deeper."

The navy man next to him looked at the speaker as if he was a fool.

"Luring the enemy deep into the house is luring the wolf into the house, and that's Shanks!"

The seagull delivering the newspaper gracefully flapped its wings and glided over from high altitude, dropped a stack of newspapers and flew away.

The navy who picked up the newspaper was so shocked that his eyes almost fell out of his head.

"I'll go! Big news!"

The people nearby quickly came over to take a look.

Front page: Garp sinks the Beast Pirates' pirate ship! Kaido transformed into a dragon and fled in panic with bigMom!

"As expected of Lieutenant General Garp! One person can actually defeat two Yonko. It's so domineering!"

"Quick! Give the newspaper to General Black Monkey!"

"No, Shanks is still here, wait a little longer and see what General Black Monkey has prepared next."

"exactly."

……

New World Naval Station.

Luffy invites Shanks to the largest bar in his new residence.

This bar was opened by Luffy to make some extra money.

"Everyone is open to eating, just like returning to your own home, there is enough food and wine!"

Luffy greeted.

The people brought by Shanks also started eating carelessly.

Shanks looked on with a smile.

"I actually have something important to do today."

If a pirate ran into the Navy's chassis, there must be something important.

Luffy smiled and said, "There are other things. I thought he came here just to see me."

Shanks also had a smile on his face.

"I do plan to visit yours too."

"I just didn't expect you to be here too."

Shanks looked at the bartender.

Luffy understood, snapped his fingers, and waved his fingers outward to avoid suspicion.

This bartender is not a marine, but the leader of a recently captured pirate group.

Luffy heard that he could bartender, so he stayed.

The boss left, and the other waiters also understood, delivered the food on hand to the designated table, and quickly withdrew.

"Tell me, there are no outsiders here now, is there anything I can do for you?"

Luffy filled Shanks' glass of wine.

Shanks put the straw hat on the bar, picked up the wine glass, and the two of them clinked their glasses and drank.

"Ace, where is he now? Do you know? My people have been to Goa Kingdom to search for him carefully, but he is no longer there."

Shanks' question made Luffy freeze.

Ace is Roger's son, and Roger was Shanks' previous captain. Even without this relationship, based on Shanks' character, Luffy believed that Shanks would never harm Ace.

"Yeah. I know."

"He is safe now. Do you have anything to do with him?"

Upon hearing the affirmative reply, Shanks looked obviously relieved again.

He raised his hand and patted Luffy's shoulder.

"I finally got a good night's sleep today, thank you."

"Can you tell me where he is now?"

Everyone in the bar looked over.

Luffy saw the worry in these people's eyes.

"Marin Vandeau..."

In an instant, everyone stood up.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Luffy could see the tension even in Shanks's eyes.

Luffy smiled and continued: "Don't worry, I haven't finished speaking yet."

"Above Malinfando, the city of water."

"The old boy from the Warring States Period, including my grandfather, doesn't know he is there. He is safe."

call...

The sound of exhalation was loud.

Then the whole room burst into laughter.

Shanks couldn't help but smile bitterly.

He raised his glass and clinked it with Luffy, drinking it down in one gulp.

"I learned a little bit about the City of Miracles from the newspapers."

"It's really awesome to be able to move a city to Malinfando."

Luffy shrugged helplessly.

"I have no choice but to offend the aunt among the four emperors."

"Forcing her daughter to death, God knows if she will come to my territory to kill people to vent her anger."

Luffy poured wine for Shanks.

Shanks nodded, understanding Luffy.

"I have answered all your questions. I also have some questions."

"What do you want with Ace?"

"If Ace becomes the Pirate King, I think it's better to forget it."

"Times have changed. Being a pirate has no future."

Shanks was happy.

"Who was clamoring to be a pirate in the first place? Now you actually look down on pirates?"

Luffy defended: "I'm not looking down on you. You've seen the current situation. There will be a catastrophe in the future. The navy will expand its force indefinitely. The navy cannot compare."

Shanks shook his head, "The extra memories are not the real future. The so-called catastrophe may not happen."

"Of course, this is speculation on my part."

"But once the ten years are over, the future will be clear."

"When no disaster strikes, countries will refuse to provide supplies to the navy."

"The navy with excess strength will be disarmed, and these laid off people will set off a bigger wave and push the Age of Discovery to another level."

Shanks' drunken words stunned Luffy.

For a moment, Luffy couldn't help but have the illusion that Shanks' eyes could see through people's hearts.

No one knows better than him whether there will be a disaster in the next ten years.

But why is Shanks so sure?

By the way, the reason lies with Ace and him.

The extra memories that other people have are the changes ten years later.

But the difference in Shanks' memory is that it has to be advanced in addition to the ten-year period.

Shanks in the other world met Ace first, not him.

Luffy figured out the key.

Shanks stared at Luffy.

He raised his hand and waved outward.

"You guys go out first. I have something to talk to Luffy alone. It's very important. You guys stay outside and don't let anyone get close to here."

The people traveling with Shanks quickly stood up.

Shanks is a humble man, treats his brothers equally, and will never go behind his back no matter what he talks about.

This is the first time this has happened today.

It shows that the matter is very, very big.

The red-haired pirates evacuate the bar.

Luffy and Shanks were the only ones left in the bar.

Overlord Sebaqi locked onto several video snails, and those video snails fainted directly.

The last possible leakers were also removed.

Shanks finally spoke.

"Luffy, you are not from this world."

Shock! ! !

How did Shanks come to this conclusion?

Is it because he is too eye-catching?

"Neither is Ace."
