The Age of Exploration, don't disturb my cultivation of immortality.

In the entire world of One Piece,

To be able to get this close,

Eating oranges and humming a song,

People who are immersed in watching Garp's Armament Haki Iron Fist performance

Besides oneself

There probably isn't anyone else here!

One to say one,

Garp's mastery of Armament Haki

It's definitely at the top level in the One Piece world!

Good job, be rewarded!

…………

Garp's bombardment lasted for nearly ten minutes.

After the smoke and dust cleared

With Li Xiao as the center,

The surrounding ground was blasted into several meters deep!

In contrast, Li Xiao,

Yet it remained completely unharmed and motionless.

Standing... no, sitting there peacefully!

The Purple Gold Exquisite Pagoda above Li Xiao's head floated in mid-air.

It was slowly turning.

It always radiates a golden light.

It was filled with an aura of mystery!

The seemingly thin, gauze-like golden barrier still enveloped Li Xiao.

Under the protection of the golden barrier,

Even the ants under Li Xiao's feet were still alive and well!

Looking at Garp, who was starting to seem a little lost,

Li Xiao silently tossed over a segment of orange.

He opened his mouth and said:

"How about we have an orange and take a break?"

Karp instinctively caught the orange.

I was stunned for a moment,

He then promptly sat down on the ground with a thud.

He sat opposite Li Xiao and ate oranges.

Chapter Twenty-One: Who Said I'm a Pirate? (Third Update, Seeking Flowers)

Karp popped a piece of orange into his mouth.

He asked as he spoke:

"Hey kid, what's your background anyway?"

"Me? I'm just an ordinary cultivator! I took care of a group of pirates on my way to stay at a friend's house, so I'm here to collect the bounty!"

"Collect a bounty? What are you, a pirate, doing here with the Navy collecting a bounty?"

"Who said I'm a pirate?"

"Aren't you a pirate?"

"I'm not a pirate!"

"Then why didn't you say it just now?"

"But you didn't ask!"

Garp was stunned.

For a moment, he was speechless!

After thinking about it carefully,

It seems that's indeed the case!

Previously, Sengoku had reported that a pirate had breached the G-16 branch base.

In addition, he had just arrived when he saw Li Xiao standing there admiring his spoils.

They subconsciously assumed that Li Xiao was a pirate!

But soon,

Garp then realized what was happening.

Pointing to the mountain of pewter and gold and jewels piled up at the entrance,

He turned to Li Xiao and asked:

"So, all of this is the bounty money you received?"

Li Xiao nodded and said:

"That's it!"

Hearing this,

Karp was so angry he laughed.

He slammed his fist into the golden barrier.

He yelled at Li Xiao:

Do you think I'm a fool?!

"There are at least several hundred million Berries here. Which New World pirate did you kill and then come here to collect your bounty?"

"Besides, which naval branch would mix gold and jewels into the bounty money?"

see,

Li Xiao calmly took another orange out of his pocket.

While peeling an orange, he said:

"Well, that's a long story!"

"Tens of millions of Berries are my bounty, and the rest was sponsored by the highest-ranking officer of this G-16 base—my old classmate Rat!"

Hearing this,

Kap paused for a moment.

Continue to ask:

"Colonel Rat? Where is he?"

"Oh... he's dead!"

"???"

Li Xiao pulled a document from his person and threw it at Garp.

He then began to speak:

"Originally, I just wanted to collect the bounty and hand these pirates over to the Navy for imprisonment!"

"But once we got here, we discovered that this rat colonel had been embezzling public funds for a long time and was even colluding with pirates to oppress the people!"

"Based on the principle that the fight against corruption relies on the masses, I just went ahead and killed him!"

"Here you are the records of his embezzlement and bribery. There is even more detailed evidence in his office!"

"If you don't believe me, there are witnesses over there!"

Saying,

Li Xiao pointed to the Evil Dragon Pirates, who were itching to escape.

Seeing that Li Xiao and Garp were looking over,

The Arlong Pirates froze in their tracks.

They immediately stopped retreating.

He forced a smile.
