Transmigrated into One Piece world with a Gift Pack
Chapter 85 - Shanks Departs

Another fifteen days passed,

Blaize had already witnessed Luffy stabbing under his left eye, eating Gomu Gomu no mi, and the appearance of the bandit Higuma. Everything occurred as in the original series. ​​

He watched everything like a spectator. And, the event that will trigger the One Piece story finally happened!

On this particular day, Higuma's gang returned and demanded alcohol in Makino's bar, Luffy tried to pick a fight with him but he was kidnapped by Higuma, instead.

However, Shanks and the Red Hair Pirates arrived before Higuma could do anything to Luffy.

After that, everything transpired as happened in the series. Red Hair Pirates and Bandits confronted, but the bandits were singlehandedly crushed by Benn Beckman.

Bandit Higuma managed to escape with Luffy by throwing a smoke bomb. Higuma took Luffy out to sea but he was eaten alive by Lord of the Coast.

When the sea king moved to eat Luffy, Shanks arrived in the nick of time and saved Luffy by scaring the beast with his Conqueror's Haki. Luffy was okay, but Shanks lost his arm.

Blaize watched everything happened but he still couldn't replace an answer to why Shanks had to lose his arm, considering his strength. One thing is clear, his actions weren't deliberate. It remained a mystery to Blaize.

After two days, the Red Hair Pirates were preparing to leave Foosha Village for good. Blaize met shanks after he lost his arm, and said only one thing.

"We will meet again in the New World!"

In the Foosha village port, Luffy declared that he would form his own pirate crew stronger than Shanks and will replace One Piece. "No matter what, I will become the King of the Pirates!"

Hearing his declaration no one laughed, all the Red hair pirates looked at Luffy in wonder. Shanks stepped forward and presented his straw hat,

"Then, take care of this Hat. It's very important to me. Return it once you become a great pirate and surpassed us!"

After that, the Red Hair Pirates set sail. Luffy, Makino, Woop Slap, and other residents were present in the port to send them off while Blaize watched from distance.

Shanks gave one last look at Luffy and turned his head while their ship sailed forward.

A month passed since Shanks left the village.

The East Blue is as calm as always but many things happened around the world. 1512 Reverie took place and a new system was introduced - Shichibukai[Seven warlords of the sea].

The purpose of the Seven Warlords system is to balance the unstable power in the world and to deal with other Great Pirates. They will be a symbol of the government's strength.

The World Government stated they are in the process of recruiting the members and made a point that only exceptionally strong individuals will be offered the position.

In return for their alliance with the World Government, every member's bounty will be frozen.

The new system came as a shock to the entire world as this means pirates with ridiculous bounty can roam free once they get the position.

Today, a new guest arrived at the Foosha village. Monkey. D. Garp, the hero of the Marines.

Garp saw Blaize who was drinking wine at Makino's bar. In truth, he was stunned to see the latter here and what shocked him most is Blaize's presence.

With his Observation Haki, he saw a vibrant golden aura and it's as strong as a scorching sun. 'The fuck? It's not possible. How the hell did his Haki reach such a level in a short span of a year?'

"Brat, What are you doing here?" Garp asked.

"Enjoying my leisurely life." Blaize nonchalantly replied, unsurprised by his arrival.

Before Garp could enquire about his strength, Makino's startled voice came from behind the counter. "Garp-san, when did you come?"

"Just now, Makino. Where's Luffy, is he still going on about becoming a pirate? I have to knock some sense into him." Garp knuckled his fists.

Makino laughed a little and said, "Luffy isn't talking about becoming a pirate anymore."

"Really?" Garp seems genuinely surprised.

"Yes, because he wants to replace One Piece and become a Pirate King."

"What? that brat!" Hearing it, Garp's entire face muscles trembled in anger.

"Why are you concerned about a child, Garp-san. It's his dream, you should support him." Blaize gulped a mouthful of wine and spoke.

"I'm concerned because he's my Grandson." Garp roared. "I won't let him become a pirate!"

"Luffy is your Grandson!" Blaize showed a shocked expression, even though he knew it already.

"Makino, what happened?" Garp asked, without bothering about Blaize.

Makino then recounted the things that happened; the arrival of Red hair pirates, their interactions, and Shanks's sacrifice to save Luffy.

"Red Hair Shanks was here?" Garp clenched his Fist. He didn't expect them to stay at Foosha village for nearly a year and would influence Luffy.

'If I had known it beforehand?' He thought and sighed. 'Is it fate?'

Garp then glanced at Blaize and asked, "Who taught you Haki, don't tell me it's the Red Hair pirates?"

"Not them. And, it's my secret!" Blaize replied cheekily.

On the side, Makino was astonished to see their casual chat. She asked, "You two know each other?"

"Yes, Sister Makino. I am not a Bounty hunter as you think, I am a Marine Commander! It's just I am not as strong as Vice-Admiral Garp." Blaize replied.

As for Garp, he just shook his head. Only he knew how strong Blaize is.

"No wonder, it's why you didn't visit when Shanks and his crew were here," Makino mumbled.

"Yes." Blaize didn't say much while Garp had a thoughtful expression. No one knows what he was thinking.

At that moment, Luffy's voice came from the outside. "Makino nee-san, I am here!"

But the next second, Luffy was surprised to see Garp inside the bar. He straightforwardly asked, "Grandpa, why did you come back?"

Hearing the words, Blaize laughed aloud unable to control his laughter. Every other Grandchild's first reaction will be, 'When you did come Grandpa?' but Luff is the complete opposite.

"Luffy, I came to see you after a long time. Is this how you greet your Grandpa?" Garp welcomed Luffy with a Fist of Love.

"Ahh!" Luffy cried in pain while a little bump grew on his forehead.
