One Piece, I'm just an adventurer.

Just as Sengoku announced the end of the meeting, Garp, picking his nose, suddenly spoke up, "Sengoku, this old man needs to take a vacation and go back to the East Blue to see his grandson."

"Damn it, didn't you just finish your vacation?" Zhan Guo roared.

"Oh, really? Well, my grandson is such a clingy kid, and isn't Lin Yi in the East China Sea? I'll check him out for you." Garp said casually.

Although I know Garp is just making excuses for being lazy, thinking about it carefully, it might be good to let Garp try Lin Yi.

"One month, just one month. If you haven't returned by then, I'll cancel all your leave for the rest of your life," Zhan Guo warned.

Garp's eyes widened, and he wanted to ask why, but when he thought about how Sengoku was now the Fleet Admiral, he felt a little discouraged.

"I understand," Garp said weakly.

Sengoku glanced smugly at Garp, thinking, "You little brat, I can't handle you."

Taking advantage of Sengoku's smugness, Garp quickly opened Sengoku's drawer, grabbed the items, and ran away.

"You bastard Garp, you took my senbei again! Those were my last two packs! Come back here, you bastard!" Sengoku's voice echoed throughout the Marine Headquarters, but Garp had already vanished.

Soon, a bounty was issued for Lin Yi and his gang.

The world of One Piece was thrown into an uproar by this sudden bounty! People were so shocked they couldn't close their mouths, their eyes practically popping out of their sockets. You see, the newly risen pirate emperors Kaido and Charlotte Linlin are incredibly powerful, yet their bounties are only a few billion Berries! But now, this unknown Lin Yi actually has such a high bounty—does he truly possess strength comparable to the pirate emperors?

Immediately, a flood of speculation and discussion arose. Some found it unbelievable that a name they had never heard of could command such a high bounty; others began to recall the newspaper headlines from a while back—it was said that Kaido had suffered a crushing defeat in the West Blue and fled in disarray, and the mysterious figure who defeated him seemed to be named Lin Yi!

When Kaido received Lin Yi's bounty, he didn't fly into a rage as others had expected; instead, he was somewhat delighted.

"Hahaha, that's more like it. This kind of bounty is normal for the person who defeated me," Kaido said, taking a big gulp of wine.

Young Jack was somewhat unconvinced, but he didn't say anything, thinking that he would definitely have to confront him when they met again.

"Haha, Mr. Lin Yi is really amazing," Tiger exclaimed on an island in the New World.

A young merman nearby said, "Boss Tiger, is this human really that powerful?"

Tiger said, "Ah, Dragon, do you remember what I told you? The reason I was able to successfully save our merfolk was because of the help of two people, one of whom is Mr. Lin Yi."

“Boss Tiger, do we need to help them?” a big, fat blue-skinned fishman asked.

"Don't worry, Jinbe, Mr. Lin Yi is very strong. It seems we'll be seeing him in the New World soon," Tiger said, patting Jinbe on the shoulder.

"Dad, Lin Yi is wanted by the Navy, with a bounty of 33 billion Berries," Marco, the pineapple-headed man, said to Whitebeard.

"Oh, that's quite a lot. Why is that?" the white-bearded man asked.

“It’s said that a scumbag in the navy was killed,” Marco replied.

"Hmph, Sengoku has become more and more stingy since he became the Fleet Admiral," Whitebeard said disdainfully.

Marco nodded in agreement.

The first naval captain Lin Yi contacted, Falkford, held the bounty posters for Lin Yi and his companions, his feelings incredibly complicated. He had originally wanted Lin Yi to join the navy, but fate had played a cruel trick on him, and Lin Yi had ended up on the opposite side of the navy. Thinking of this, Falkford was furious with Madru for causing this situation, but there was nothing he could do.

Many people Lin Yi knew also received his bounty poster; some were happy, some were sad, and some felt regret. Everyone had a different attitude, but Lin Yi and his companions had firmly established themselves in the world of pirates.

Lin Yi and his companions remained completely unaffected. Aside from the initial novelty, they continued eating and drinking as usual. The bounty was just a piece of paper to them; with their current strength, even a naval admiral wouldn't be of any use.

Chapter 51 Monkey D. Garp

Although they were wanted by the authorities, it did not have much impact on the lives of Lin Yi and his companions.

In the sea area managed by the 16th branch, almost every inhabited island had been ravaged by Madru, so some people were not afraid of Lin Yi and his group, and even treated them with great hospitality.

As for whether anyone would come to kill them because of the bounty, you're probably overthinking it. A bounty of 33 billion Berries is terrifying just to look at, so naturally no one would be out of their mind to come and die.

That day, Lin Yi and his group bid farewell to the hospitable islanders and continued their journey to the next island.

On the ship, a fierce volleyball match is underway, with the teams divided into two groups by drawing lots.

The red team consists of: Lin Yi, Simon, Reiju, and Fiona.

The blue team consists of: Da Pan, Filina, Dota, and Chiyo.

Both parties agreed that neither party was allowed to use their abilities.

The match was fiercely contested, with the score remaining very close. On the red team's side, Lin Yi displayed incredible jumping ability, consistently leaping high to slam the ball down; Simon provided excellent defense, repeatedly thwarting the opponent's attacks; and Reiju and Fiona displayed excellent teamwork, skillfully passing the ball and orchestrating the offense.

The blue team was not to be outdone. Da Pan's powerful serves often disrupted the red team's rhythm, Filina moved nimbly between courts to receive the ball, and Dota and Chiyo's strong attacks were also very threatening.

"Ouch, you stinky captain, why do you keep throwing it at my face?" Finally, Felina protested after catching the ball in her face for the third time.

"It was an unexpected accident," Lin Yi said awkwardly in apology.

"It's a promise, no hitting my face!" Felina said angrily.

"Okay," Lin Yi replied.

"Bang!" This time it was Dota who was hit in the nose by a heavy shot from Simon, and blood immediately flowed from both nostrils.

Simon got angry and started targeting the opponent's weak points, turning what was supposed to be an ordinary volleyball match into a brawl.

Finally, as the clock struck, the game came to an end. Lin Yi's red team won by a narrow margin. Several people on the field had minor injuries on their faces, but they looked at each other and burst into laughter.

After washing up, everyone began preparing lunch. With Chiyo, the chef, around, the kitchen soon filled with delicious aromas.

Da Pan took a satisfying drag, remarking, "Chiyo's cooking is getting better and better."

Lin Yi kicked him in the butt and laughed, scolding, "You're hopeless!"

"Hehe," Da Pan dodged away, chuckled, and ran to Chiyo's side to beg for food.

Lin Yi's lips curled up slightly, and after chuckling, he didn't rush off to watch the excitement like the others. Instead, he leisurely strolled onto the deck.

He slowly walked to the bow of the ship and stood there quietly. A warm and gentle sea breeze blew by, softly caressing his face and hair. Feeling this pleasant atmosphere, Lin Yi couldn't help but stretch his body and give a big yawn.

However, at that moment, Lin Yi's stretching motion suddenly stopped. Directly in front of the Silver Dragon, a warship bearing a dog's head insignia came into view. The iconic dog's head was particularly conspicuous in the sunlight.

A surprised smile instantly appeared on Lin Yi's face. He thought to himself, "It's Monkey D. Garp! I really didn't expect to meet him here... Is it just a chance encounter, or is it a premeditated scheme?" Thinking of this, Lin Yi's smile widened. In any case, he couldn't be a threat.

Before long, the two ships met as expected.

"Hahaha, is that kid Lin Yi over there?" Garp's gruff voice rang out.

Lin Yi looked at him and saw that Garp was much younger than when the story started. Perhaps he had worried too much later on and aged quickly.

Garp is now a tall, broad-chested, muscular middle-aged man with a scar over his left eye, blue eyes, and a head of neat short hair.

"Haha, I've heard so much about Lieutenant General Garp," Lin Yi said with a smile.

"Haha, kid, you're pretty good. Won't you invite me over for a bit?"

“My apologies. We’re about to have lunch. If Vice Admiral Garp doesn’t mind, you can come aboard and try the cooking of our ship’s chef,” Lin Yi invited.

"Haha, we can't do without food," Garp laughed, and in a flash, he was already on the Silver Dragon, accompanied by a young officer.

“Lin Yi, this is my adjutant, Colonel Bogart, a fine young man,” Karp introduced.

"Hello, Mr. Lin Yi," Bogart said with a polite slight bow.

"Hello, welcome to the Silver Dragon. This way, please. Vice Admiral Garp, the food is ready." Lin Yi led the way and said with a smile.

Upon arriving at the restaurant, Da Pan and the others were surprised that Lin Yi would bring the navy aboard the Silver Dragon, but they didn't care, since the captain was so powerful.

Lin Yi introduced his companions to Garp one by one. Garp didn't put on airs; instead, he chatted with everyone like a kind elder.

While enjoying the delicious food, Karp praised, "Lin Yi, you've found a fantastic chef."

"Haha, of course, Chiyo is the best chef I've ever seen," Lin Yi said proudly.

"I'm glad you like it," Chiyo said with a gentle smile.

Amidst laughter and cheerful conversation, the luncheon lasted for over an hour. During the conversation, Lin Yi discovered that Garp was actually a very talkative person. He patiently recounted his experiences to Da Pan and the others when they asked him curious questions. This greatly surprised Lin Yi, as Garp was usually the type to doze off while eating. How did he become like this?

"Lin Yi, let's have a fight," Garp suddenly said.

Lin Yi was naturally more than happy to do so. Garp was the epitome of domineering, and he would surely learn a lot from fighting him.
