Chu Bai looked at Ace who fell on the ground calmly, and said calmly, "I just happen to be walking this way, so don't be too sentimental."

After saying that, Chu Bai turned around and left, leaving Ace alone in a daze.

Because I used the Moon Step on the way back, it only took half an hour to reach Maginot's Tavern.

The tavern business is very good at night. Most of the men who work during the day are here, and there are Shanks and his group, which makes it very lively.

As soon as Chu Bai walked to the front of the tavern, someone called him.

"Hey, little brother Chu Bai, did you have a good time today?"

Shanks greeted him from a distance and shook the bottle in his hand.

"It's okay. I'm just strolling around and educating the children."

Chu Bai waved his hands and said nonchalantly.

"Educating children? What does this mean?"

Shanks asked with a confused look on his face.

"Well, it's nothing. Have you had dinner?"

Chu Bai passed the topic lightly, not wanting to get too entangled in this issue.

"That's it, okay, dinner has been eaten, you should go quickly."

Chu Bai and Shanks chatted for a while and then walked into the tavern.

Inside the restaurant, Luffy was sitting on a bar stool with a dull look on his face, and Maginot was comforting him with a smile.

When Maginot saw Chu Bai walking in, she smiled and said, "Chu Bai, are you hungry? The food has been prepared for you a long time ago. Just wait, I will bring it right away."

After saying that, Maginot turned and walked into the kitchen.

Luffy also saw Chu Bai at this time. When Chu Bai sat on the stool, he asked, "Chubai, will others think I am a monster if I act like this?"

Chu Bai turned to look at Luffy and said, "You just ate the Devil Fruit, it's no big deal."

"But I have lost the ability to swim. How can I go out to sea and become a pirate in the future?"

Luffy said sadly, as if this incident was a stumbling block that hindered him from becoming a pirate.

Chu Bai saw that he was going through a moment of transformation, so he spoke to him and said, "Then become a strong person. If you become a strong person, you will not be bound by these! No matter what you want to do, you can achieve it!"

"really?"

Luffy was moved by Chu Bai's words, and the doubts in his eyes disappeared instantly, and a smile began to appear on his face again.

"Hahaha, yes, I want to become a strong man, a pirate, no, a man who is the Pirate King!"

Chu Bai looked at Luffy, who was instantly resurrected and excited because of his words, and couldn't help but shake his head. He sighed in his heart that Luffy was really like the original, a naive and naive child.

Luffy, who wanted to understand this, quickly jumped off the stool and ran out of the tavern.

At this time, Maginot came out with the food. When he saw Luffy running outside after regaining his mood, he glanced at Chu Bai sitting on the stool and showed a smile.

"It must be Mr. Chubai who comforts Luffy. It must be like this. Only Mr. Chubai can cheer up Luffy."

"No, I just said a few words to him and he figured it out on his own."

There was no change on Chu Bai's face, and his expression was very calm.

"Hehehe, let's eat quickly, Mr. Chubai."

After a while, after finishing the meal, Chu Bai was called to the banquet by Shanks. He had no intention of going, but he couldn't stand it because he was too enthusiastic, so he had to drink with Shanks again.

Although Chu Bai is not a fan of wine, he has a large capacity for drinking. Although he is not a heavy drinker, he can still be considered a drinker without getting drunk.

"Brother Chu Bai, I will leave tomorrow."

Shanks and Chu Bai were sitting by the campfire, drinking and chatting.

"Are you going to the Grand Route?" Chu Bai said lightly.

"As expected, I can't hide it from you. How about it? Do you want to come to my boat and let's go on a adventure together?"

Seeing that Chu Bai had guessed his intention, Shanks brought it up openly.

"Why should I join? I'm just a teenager."

Chu Bai tried to use this argument to reject Shanks, but it obviously didn't work.

"Hahahaha, don't hide in front of me. I can see it in your eyes. Not everyone will be so calm when they see me."

"And my intuition tells me that you are not simple, at least not as simple as your appearance seems."

Chu Bai smiled, took a sip of the wine in his hand, and said calmly, "As expected, I still didn't hide it from you? Red-haired Shanks."

At this time, Shanks had not yet become one of the Four Emperors of the Sea. He was still working hard on the Grand Line, but he had already earned his reputation as Red-haired Shanks.

"Hahaha, as expected, you know my existence. Generally, not many people know who I am in the first half of the Grand Line. How about it, that's it for now. Do you want to come with me?"

Shanks refused to give up and continued to ask.

At this time, Chu Bai had no intention of joining a certain pirate group or establishing one of his own. Right now, he just wanted to follow the system to find treasure chests and take a look at the scenery of the world.

"No, I just want to be a traveler, wandering on this sea as I please. Maybe after I finish seeing the scenery of the sea, I will think of finding a place to stay."

"Is that so?"

After Shanks listened to Chu Bai's words, he was silent for a moment, then he laughed loudly, stood up, raised his glass, and said: "Hahaha, okay, then when you want to stop, I, Shanks will always Welcome!"

When Chu Bai heard this, he also smiled and stood up to clink glasses with him.

"Okay, then I wish you a safe journey!"

……

the next day.

Chu Bai walked downstairs and came to the tavern. He saw the Shanks pirates moving things and getting ready to leave. So, he walked out of the tavern and wanted to say goodbye to them.

After exiting the tavern, they saw Shanks on the dock putting the straw hat on Luffy's head and constantly comforting Luffy.

"Who is it, the person who killed my Bandit King?"

At this moment, a lazy voice sounded, interrupting Shanks and Luffy's farewell.

At the same time, the system's voice suddenly sounded in Chu Bai's mind.

"Hey, a rare treasure chest has appeared. Host, please go there as soon as possible."

"Well, has the treasure chest appeared?"

Then, Chu Bai checked the map, then glanced at the Bandit King and others standing in the open space in front of the dock, and found that the treasure box was in front of them.

On the dock, Shanks stood up, raised his head, and looked at the Bandit King in front of him.

Luffy also stopped crying, turned around, saw it was a bandit, and said, "Are you in the same group as the bandit from the day before yesterday?"

"Oh? Kid, tell me who killed him."

The bandit king heard what Luffy said, looked over with a ferocious look, glanced at Luffy, and said in a commanding tone.

"Bah, you bandits are all bad guys, I won't tell you."
