Little Goku's Great Adventure Starting from One Piece

Chapter 7 The Astonishment of the Warring States Period

Inside an office in the Naval Building.

The warm sunlight slanted in, falling on a robust man wearing a white overcoat and a seagull-patterned military cap.

As the Fleet Admiral, Sengoku had endless affairs to handle every day.

Whether it's the naval deployments, the movements of the great pirates in the Grand Line that require attention, or other miscellaneous matters, he needs to review them all and give instructions to his subordinates.

The heavy workload and the duties of a marshal kept him with a serious expression all year round. Many naval personnel dared not breathe loudly in his presence, for fear of accidentally angering him.

This shows that he was quite authoritative as a naval admiral.

But just then, a guy who disregarded his authority appeared.

Bang! !

The office door, which was slightly ajar, was kicked open, and the sound of people coming in came out before the people outside even entered.

"Hahaha! Sengoku period, I'm back!"

Garp walked in with his hands in his pockets and a swagger.

Ignoring the throbbing veins on Zhan Guo's forehead, he casually took some tea leaves from a cabinet, poured them into a cup, added hot water, and then sat down on the sofa with complete ease, taking a delicious sip.

"Mmm! That feels good! The tea here in Warring States is the best!"

Sengoku, already exasperated, finally lost his temper, slamming his fist on the table and yelling, "Garp! How many times have I told you! Knock before you enter my office!!"

"Hahaha! Don't worry about that, Sengoku! Here, want some senbei?"

Garp laughed a few times, took out a bag of senbei from his pocket, grabbed a handful and stuffed them into his mouth, then gestured to Sengoku.

Although the Warring States period was filled with resentment, they were helpless.

After all, Garp was his old comrade-in-arms. The two had worked together for so many years and knew each other's personalities very well.

Karp knew he couldn't possibly be really angry about something like this.

He also knew that even if he gave Garp a good scolding right now, the other party wouldn't repent and would just do the same thing the next time he came here.

So he had no choice but to grab the rice crackers, stuff a handful into his mouth, and chew them as if they were Garp.

"Tell me, what were the results of that investigation?"

After his anger subsided, he asked casually.

"It's the same as what the people there reported before. The soldier's father was bullied by some local villagers and unfortunately became disabled for life." Garp's smile faded, and his expression turned serious.

"When the soldier returned to his hometown to visit his family, he discovered this incident. In a fit of rage, he severely punished the villagers, but unexpectedly, he accidentally killed two of them."

"I asked him, and he said he didn't regret it, but felt guilty for letting down the Navy, so he wanted to leave the Navy."

"What a pity for such a promising talent."

Garp shook his head, his expression somewhat wistful.

A young man who should have been shining in the navy ruined his promising future because of this incident.

Although the intention was good and those villagers did need to be taught a lesson, beating someone to death was going too far.

"Okay, I understand."

Zhan Guo nodded, offering no comment on the matter.

In fact, to him, this was a trivial matter, and he didn't need to concern himself with it at all.

He only asked the question because it was Garp who was handling the matter.

As for why someone like Garp would bother with such trivial matters, it can only be said that he's too idle.

Of course, it's more likely that he was craving something and wanted to go to that area anyway, so he just dealt with it casually.

"Oh, right! Sengoku, there's something else I need to tell you. You'll never guess what I brought back this time!"

After ending that somewhat heavy topic, Garp put on a smile again and said to Sengoku with a cheerful laugh.

"Oh? What did you bring? It's not food, is it?" Sengoku replied casually while flipping through the documents on the table.

"No, no! How could it be food? I brought you a promising talent! A promising talent who will definitely shine in the Navy in the future!" Garp laughed loudly.

"A promising talent?"

Upon hearing this, Sengoku finally raised his head and glanced at him.

"But I rarely see you bring back promising talents, and you praise them so highly. Tell me, what kind of person is she, and how did you discover her?"

After taking a large gulp of tea, Karp slowly said, "That's a long story..."

Next, he recounted what happened when he first met Wukong.

"Let me tell you, with this kid's temperament, courage, and strength, he's definitely a good candidate to be a Marine!" Garp praised Goku highly.

"Wait, wait! Hold on a minute!"

Sengoku noticed a detail that seemed off, so he raised his hand to stop him: "You said he's only twelve? You want a twelve-year-old to join the navy? Isn't that a joke!"

Normally, they recruit people who are 18 years of age or older into the Navy. Occasionally, some geniuses can break this restriction and join the Navy one or two years earlier.

Even in the most exceptional circumstances, it would be at most four years earlier; anything more than that is impossible.

But now, Garp is actually going to lower the threshold by two years, allowing a twelve-year-old child to join the Navy. Isn't that utterly absurd?

"Hey, listen to me, I know you'll have objections, but this child's situation is indeed special."

For the first time ever, Garp smiled and even stood up to refill Sengoku's teacup, which was short of water.

Zhan Guo picked up his cup, took a sip, and glanced at him sideways, saying, "Then tell me, I want to see what kind of nonsense you can come up with."

"The first point is that this child may have been abandoned by his/her own family."

Garp told Goku about how he woke up to find himself stranded on a strange island and unable to find his family.

"The second point is that this child possesses exceptional talent!"

Garp raised a finger, looking intently at Sengoku, and said, "You'd never guess, this kid learned three of the Six Powers after just one glance!"

Sengoku, who had been listening somewhat casually, paused for a moment upon hearing this, then looked at Garp with surprise: "What did you say? You learned it after just one glance?"

"That's right! He only watched someone use it once, and he learned Shave, Moonwalk, and Tempest Kick all in less than ten minutes!"

This time, Sengoku, who had been calm and composed, finally froze.

Having served in the Navy for decades, this was the first time he had ever heard of such a thing.

Is it possible to learn the Six Styles, which many excellent naval officers struggle to master in their entire lives, just by glancing at it?

At that moment, a gasp came from outside. Garp seemed to have sensed something with his Observation Haki, went to the window, and looked down for two seconds.

Then he turned around and waved to Sengoku: "Sengoku, come and see, the child I told you about is down there."
