As Uchiha, I can only travel to another world to live!

"Are you really Vice Admiral Garp?"

Before Garp made the first words, Shinra asked Garp this question.

"I am!" Still, Garp was arrogant as ever. "Who do you think I am?"

"I thought that you were a pirate since you attacked me secretly before."

"..."

Now that this problem was mentioned, everyone stared at Garp, and quickly realised that Garp wanted to kill Shinra before.

"But I understood that you just wanted to save your grandson, right?" Shinra showed his understanding. "After all, compared to the life of a stranger, your grandson is more important."

"Oh, my, how scary~!" Kizaru showed a fear-like expression, even if it was fake.

Garp wanted to say something, but he couldn't since it wasn't the truth.

Even if Shinra was a Marine, the one who should be on the side of justice, Garp had attacked him.

If Kuzan and Kizaru didn't group up together with Shinra to stop Garp, would this mad dog stop?

No.

Garp would beat up Shinra and probably almost die.

If Shinra knew what they thought, he would only smile, since if he and Garp fought, the result would be different from what they had imagined. The only problem was the aftermath since he had just joined the Marines, so he lacked influence.

Meanwhile, Garp was in the same generation as the Fleet Admiral, Sengoku, and the Great Officer, Tsuru. At the same time, he was also known as the Marine Hero, the one who had caught the Pirate King, Gold Roger.

Regardless, similar to Kuzan, Shinra felt that Garp was unreliable, and he was one of the factors that he needed to watch out for. Unlike the others, who would follow the order and wouldn't betray the Marines, as long as Garp's family, especially Luffy, was hurt, Garp would betray the Marines right away.

Frankly, Garp's crimes were serious, and it wouldn't be weird for him to be put in Impel Down, especially with Garp's son's crime. However, with two powerful best friends, such as Tsuru and Sengoku, and the World Government also needing a powerful thug, they let him go.

After all, no matter what, instead of letting Garp be lazy around Impel Down and do what he wished, it was better to disgust him by making him follow the orders of the World Government.

Then again, it would be difficult to use Kotoamatsukami on Garp, especially with many people around.

Moreover, as Luffy's grandfather, Garp's luck was quite high, and Nika needed Garp to make Luffy grow, so it was impossible to let Garp be killed; so, probably an accident or destiny somehow made an escape for Garp and Luffy, so they could survive.

If Shinra had to say, it was like how the history told Roger escaped from Shiki, who had many followers due to the sudden storm that appeared on the ocean.

Something inexplicable could happen more or less, which caused the victor to be Luffy.

However, what would happen if Shinra took away those lucks, too?

Still, before that, he needed to handle Garp first.

"Calm down, Kuroyagi." While Shinra and Kizaru tried to make the situation become larger with their sarcasms, Kuzan tried to pacify Shinra. "I am sure that Vice Admiral Garp is just in a panic, thinking that you might kill his grandson."

"Well, that's true. I thought that Fleet Admiral Sengoku lied to me that the Marine Hero, Garp, had a pirate as a grandson, but unexpectedly, it was true."

'Sengoku...'

Garp frowned and understood where Shinra learned Luffy was his grandson, yet could he blame Sengoku?

After all, he knew that he had brought so much trouble to Sengoku.

No, instead, as he had always stressed with many things, he also caused stress to Sengoku, so that way, he could feel happy.

Still, when Garp thought that this matter was over—

"But I am just worried." Shinra let out a helpless sigh. "If it's for the sake of justice to save those innocents from the pirates, then we, as Marines, are prepared to sacrifice our lives, but if Vice Admiral Garp's attacks somehow hit those Marines and killed them, would their death be just?"

"....." Everyone.

"Vice Admiral Garp..."

"What about my comrades who were killed by his grandson?"

"Is this how the Marine Hero is...?"

While silence should be the answer for Garp's misconduct, many of those at the bottom, especially those who were killed by Luffy, Kidd, and Law, quickly put all of their frustrations on Luffy and Garp.

Their voices might have been low as they knew that they couldn't defeat Garp, yet even so, they couldn't help but say their grievance.

Coby felt at a loss, and he didn't know what to do, especially since it was his first time facing this situation.

Yet, Garp's reaction was simple.

Dogeza.

"I am sorry!"

As he smashed his head to the ground, he apologized!

"I am sorry for what my grandson has done! I know that my apology isn't enough, but please forgive me!"

"..."

At that moment, no one could say anything, and even if some might not be able to accept it, the fact that someone as strong as Garp would apologize made all of them feel less resistance and maintained the prestige that he had over everyone.

Shinra also knew that it was impossible to take down Garp right away, but he was quite patient since there was no need to be in a hurry. He could do it slowly. After all, he was young, and on the other hand, Garp was at the age where he should retire.

Then again, Shinra wondered why the elderly man had quite a good appearance, but the old woman on One Piece was just quite hard to describe as good-looking.

Regardless, he didn't pay much attention to Garp and thought to return since the war between the Marines and the Whitebeard Pirates was about to start, and he also thought to report what had happened in this place to the Five Elders.

Yet—

"You are that boy who defeated Kaidou, right? What is your name again?" Garp quickly turned his attention to Shinra.

"Kuroyagi."

"Real name?"

"There is no need to mention my nickname. I don't want something similar to Marine Instructor Zefa to happen to my family, after all," Shinra said with ease, but Garp's expression was at a loss for a moment, thinking of the brutal and tragic life of Zephyr.

Taking a deep breath, Garp said, "Okay, I will call you, Kuroyagi."

"That's good."

"But enough of that, let's have a match, Kuroyagi!"

"...." Everyone.

"Why?" Shinra was calm since, once again, he knew that Garp had started to act senile again.

"What do you mean by what? Let me see your power, or are you just afraid?"

Garp grinned, provoking Shinra casually.

"You are right. I am afraid." Shinra wasn't angry at Garp's provocation, but it didn't mean he would say nothing. "You are already old. What if you die in my hands? I could become a criminal by then."

"..." Everyone.

Garp blinked his eyes, then laughed. "Gahahahahaha! You are so funny!"

"You don't mind dying?"

"Oh? You think I will lose to you?" As Garp said, his body started to exude a powerful fighting spirit. Despite the similar grin on his face, he had the brutality of a beast mixed in. "If you can do it, then do it! I want to see how strong you are!"

"Sigh..." Shinra let out a helpless sigh, but his eyes also exuded a strong fighting spirit. "Let me see how strong the Marine Hero is, then."

Garp vs Shinra!

The battle of the strongest Vice Admiral starts!
