Makino Tavern.

"Luffy, Luffy..."

Uta called Luffy's name and rushed into the tavern anxiously.

Shanks suddenly said she was leaving today, so she came to Luffy to say goodbye.

But her eyes swept through every corner of the tavern, but she could not find Luffy.

"Ah! It's Uta! Luffy said when he got up in the morning that he went to practice his new abilities and wasn't in the pub."

"Thank you, Ms. Makino."

After hearing this, Uta thanked Makino and went to find Luffy.

She has been with Luffy almost every day for more than three months, so she naturally knows where he usually goes to train.

However, just as Uta was about to leave, the door of the tavern was pushed open again.

Immediately afterwards, a group of arrogant people walked in swaggeringly.

Seeing the person coming, Uta suddenly became angry and frowned.

The people coming were none other than the bandit Sig and his gang who had insulted Shanks last time.

Sig's eyes swept across the empty tavern, and he suddenly showed an expression of disdain and said contemptuously.

"It seems that the stupid pirates are not here today!"

The younger brothers who were following him also laughed when they heard this.

"Hahaha! Those cowards must be afraid of us and don't dare to show up here."

"That's right! Have you seen the faces of that group of pirates before? They were splashed with wine and didn't even dare to say a word. Those guys are so useless."

"Hmph! Pirates are just useless at best. They can only act cool. How can they compare with us bandits?"

“Wahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha...”

Listening to the bandits' various insults to Shanks, Uta's fists clenched tighter and tighter, and his anger was completely ignited.

"Shut up, you are not allowed to insult Shanks and the others."

Uta's sudden outburst interrupted the bandits' taunts and laughter.

The leader Sig suddenly frowned and looked at Uta with a fierce look in his eyes.

"Oh?! Are you a brat going to stand up for those cowardly pirates?"

"Those pirates are really cowards! They are not as brave as a kid."

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Hearing Sig mocking and insulting Shanks again, Uta became angrier, gritted his teeth, and said angrily despite Makino's dissuasion.

"Shanks and the others are not cowards! Shanks can take care of bandits like you with just a snap of his fingers."

When Sige heard this, the smile on his face suddenly disappeared, his eyes were filled with anger, and he said angrily.

"What did you say, kid?!"

"How dare you look down on us bandits."

"I am a big bandit with a bounty of 8 million beli. I have killed 56 of these pirates like those. Laozi has already cut down 56 of them."

"So far, no one who angered Laozi has survived."

"You... angered Laozi!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Sig reached his hand to his waist and placed it on the saber.

Uta saw the opponent's tense look. Although he knew he was outmatched, he was not afraid at all.

The bandits were so insulting to Shanks that she couldn't ignore them.

"Uta, are you really here?!"

During the fierce confrontation between the two sides, a familiar voice suddenly came from outside the door.

"Shanks!!"

Uta exclaimed in surprise.

If Shanks is here, we will definitely give these bandits a hard lesson this time.

The bandits naturally heard the voices behind them.

A group of people filed out and confronted Shanks and his group.

Sig looked at Shanks and others with disdain and laughed.

"Haha! What? Are you wimps here to die?"

Shanks ignored Sig at all, but looked at Uta who came out of the tavern, pulled Luffy beside him, and said with a smile.

"Uta, we have found Luffy for you."

"If you want to say goodbye, go tell Luffy now."

"Okay, let's go quickly!"

"We're running out of time. A Marine ship is about to arrive."

Uta glanced at Luffy with a complicated expression, and then at the bandits who looked contemptuous, but he still forcefully retracted his anger, wanting to say goodbye to Luffy properly at the last chance.

"Who said you can leave?!"

At this time, Sig suddenly pulled out his long knife and blocked Uta's way.

"This brat has pissed off Laozi."

"So far, no one who angered Laozi has survived."

"If you want to help her, you will all die here today."

After Sig finished speaking, all the pirates took out their weapons at the same time. Each one looked confidently at the "silly" pirates opposite with a playful expression.

At this time, Shanks slowly moved forward and said to Sig.

"I'm sorry, my daughter has more important things to do now, so please let her go!"

Seeing Shanks begging for mercy in a low voice, Sig suddenly became even more proud.

"Hahahaha! Brothers, have you seen it? Is this a pirate?"

"He's just a real loser!"

Behind Sig, the younger brothers also started laughing.

"Hahaha! Pirates are such cowardly beings. Facing a powerful opponent, they don't even have the faith to resist."

"Pirates are such useless people. They are just a bunch of cool guys. When they really start fighting, they turn into complete trash."

"Hahaha......"

Facing the cynicism and humiliation of the bandits, Uta's inner anger was once again ignited.

However, she did not look at the pirate, but looked angrily at Shanks, who had always looked like Shisui, and asked loudly.

"Why, Shanks? Why don't you fight back?"

"You can deal with this kind of bandit with just a few clicks of your fingers, right?!"

"Why do you keep putting up with them?"

"They have already been bullied to the extreme, why should they be allowed to be humiliated?"

Uta asked Shanks loudly, tears falling from the corners of her eyes involuntarily.

Shanks still lowered his straw hat and said calmly without changing his expression.

"Because...we have no reason to take action."

"reason?!"

Uta let out a light sigh.

Shanks raised his head, looked at Uta, showed a bright smile, and continued.

"This group of bandits is different from us Red Hair Pirates. They are a group of guys without beliefs and dreams."

"We, the Red Hair Pirates, have no reason to take action against a guy like this."

"If we, the Red Hair Pirates, just fight against them just because they were drunk and humiliated, then we, the Red Hair Pirates, will be the same as these guys."

"Uta, you are also a member of our Red Hair Pirates. You have no reason to take action against a guy like this."

After Shanks finished speaking, Uta was stunned.

She simply couldn't understand the reasons Shanks gave.

As for Sig, he was completely angered by Shanks' words.

He held the knife tightly and slashed at Shanks.

"You bastard, you actually said that we don't deserve to let you take action."

"Then just die for Laozi!"

Seeing the big knife slashing at Shanks, Uta suddenly exclaimed.

"Shanks!!!"

when!

With a crisp sound of iron collision, Sig's knife was blown away by Shanks' body.

Of course, it was impossible for a pirate of this level to hurt him.

Even so, Uta still looked extremely angry.

"What's going on with you guy?!"

Sig was extremely shocked. He didn't expect that it didn't cut through Shanks' body, but instead shocked his arms to numbness.

Sig, who did not believe in evil, once again prepared to chop at Shanks.

Seeing that Shanks still looked unmoved, Uta couldn't help it anymore.

Tears flowed out of her eyes like a fountain, and she shouted to the sky, then suddenly turned her head and looked at Luffy, who had been watching.

"Hey! Luffy, you didn't just say that casually, did you?"

Luffy was stunned and didn't react for a while.

"What did you say?"

Uta cried loudly.

"You said you wanted me to join your pirate group. That wasn't just a casual talk, was it?!"

Luffy nodded after hearing this.

"Yeah! I'm serious."

"Then help me! Help me beat these bandits away, and I will join your pirate group."

"But, you are fragrant..."

Before Luffy could finish speaking, he was interrupted by an angry Uta.

"From now on, I am no longer a Red Hair Pirates person."

"I'm different from them. Facing a guy like this, I simply can't ignore him."

"I can't go against the will of Red Hair Pirates, so I want to quit Red Hair Pirates."

With tears streaming down her face, Uta loudly announced to everyone present.

When Luffy heard this, his expression suddenly became serious and he said in a deep voice.

"That's it! I understand."

After saying that, he clenched his fists.
