One Piece: Burning the Prison Clothes in the Setting Sun, Mihawk is dumbfounded.

"Wow, this is a feast, Aunt Bellemere! What holiday is it today?"

Nokiko's eyes widened, filled with tiny stars.

Such a sumptuous meal can only be enjoyed during festivals.

However, the weather is too good today, resulting in a bumper fruit harvest. The fruit is difficult to sell and preserve, so we earn very little money.

"Yes, I made money today. A gentleman bought a lot of oranges."

Bellemere, who was busy at work, turned around with a big smile on her face.

"Really?"

Nami walked over to Bellemere with a look of surprise and watched her fry two fish.

"Go ahead and put it on the table; we have guests at home."

Bellemere said with a smile.

Not long after, Ah Jian came over, carrying some of his usual gifts and food.

All four of them enjoyed the meal very much.

Of course, the happiest moment was when Bellemere offered to let Ah Jian stay overnight after dinner, and Ah Jian fled in panic.

Bellemere and the two girls stood in a row, hands on their hips, laughing heartily.

In the nearby sea, Dunn, with his sails down, lay on a small boat. His Observation Haki enveloped the entire village of Cocoyasi, allowing him to "see" everything that was happening at Nami's house.

"Atonement?"

Dunn said softly, then closed his eyes and let the ship drift with the current.

……

At Base Sixteen, a massive dog-headed warship was docked at the pier.

Base Commander Colonel Rat and all the naval soldiers are already waiting here.

When they saw Garp picking his nose as he walked off the ship, everyone stood at attention.

"Lieutenant General Garp!"

The soldiers in formation shouted in unison.

"Haha, thank you for your help. I've come here on some business."

Garp laughed heartily as he spoke.

"Yes, Vice Admiral Garp, please!"

Colonel Rat said very respectfully, "Before I've started making a fortune, I might have a clear conscience."

"Bogart!"

Garp turned around and called out.

"Yes, Vice Admiral Garp!"

Bogart stood at attention on the warship and said.

Garp nodded, then walked towards the branch base's location.

Although curious as to why Bogart and the navy on the warship didn't disembark, the rat didn't care and could only obediently follow behind Garp.

Not long after, in the base's reception room, Garp sat on the sofa looking at the rat standing not far in front of him.

The mouse looked nervous as Karp scrutinized it.

"Isn't he/she here?"

"Yes, Vice Admiral Garp. However, he hasn't been gone long, and he was in a small boat, so he shouldn't have gone too far. He'll probably be back soon."

The rat naturally knew that Karp was asking about Dunn.

He had already sent people to investigate thoroughly, and now he has given an immediate response.

"So, do you know where he went and what he's doing?"

Karp asked again.

"Well, Vice Admiral Garp!" Colonel Rat said uncertainly, "He always calls himself a pirate hunter. He came here this time and captured two pirates. Maybe he went out to find pirates and capture them to collect the bounty."

I had already invited him before, but he... he said!!!

The mouse stopped talking midway through its speech, too afraid to continue.

"Is it related to the Celestial Dragons?"

Garp, however, remained calm and guessed what was preventing the rat from speaking.

"Yes...yes, Vice Admiral Garp!"

The mouse nodded, but was surprised at how Karp knew.

Knew it!

Garp sighed, looking somewhat helpless.

He wasn't optimistic about achieving his goal this time, and such an invitation inevitably gave people a sense of coercion, which would make the other party dislike the navy even more.

Or rather, it might backfire.

"Vice Admiral Garp, should I send men out to sea to search?"

Colonel Mouse looked at Garp's expression, hesitated for a moment, and then asked.

"No need. The ocean is so vast, how can we possibly find it? And even if we did find it, we couldn't bring it back. Since we're pirate hunters, we should definitely collect the bounty when we capture a pirate."

Garp stood up after he finished speaking.

"I will wait in the East China Sea for a while. The warships will stay here. I have other matters to attend to, so I will leave first. If he returns to collect the bounty, please inform me."

After saying that, Garp left, leaving Colonel Mouse looking completely bewildered.

Lieutenant General Garp doesn't seem to care much about this matter, contrary to what I expected.

Furthermore, it seems that this vice admiral doesn't care about the Celestial Dragons' attitude.

However, Colonel Rat naturally dared not think too much about it.

After all, Garp is a Vice Admiral of the Marine Headquarters, a Marine hero, and the man who personally captured the Pirate King.

Perhaps, there's a deeper meaning behind this man's actions.

There was no deeper meaning. Upon returning, Garp simply released a small boat from the warship and then left with the marines piloting the boat.

As for where to go?

Naturally, he returned to Windmill Village to visit his well-behaved grandson.

Of course, they might not be that well-behaved.

Dunn was unaware of these things, though he could imagine that his situation might be reported to higher authorities.

However, he didn't pay much attention and continued doing his own thing.

He glanced at the wanted poster, then looked up at the pirate ship charging towards him.

The distorted pirate flag above was exactly the same as the pirate flag on the bounty poster in his hand.

"Torf the Vicious Dog, bounty of 2.2 million."

With a sigh, Dunn raised his hand and slashed through the sea with his sword, striking the approaching pirate ship.

Click.

The flying slash cleaved the pirate ship in half, causing it to flood and become unstable before breaking apart.

One by one, the pirates on the ship fell into the water, thrashing about desperately.

Swish.

After more than a dozen more slashes, the pirate ship was cut into pieces.

"As expected, he's far inferior to Hawkeye."

Dunn sighed after sheathing his sword.

Of course, he has only just become a swordsman, and this slash was made with the help of his powerful physique and domineering aura. He has not yet reached the level of Hawkeye, who can cleave the sea with a single sword stroke.

But after a few more slashes, even the small wooden boat couldn't withstand his attacks.

Some of the pirates who had fallen into the water were struggling in the sea, some were clinging to pieces of the ship, and some were swimming towards him.

Among them was their captain, the vicious dog Thorf.

This is a pirate who enjoys biting and slaughtering people.

Dunn was somewhat distracted as he watched the pirates swimming towards him.

It seems that the weaker the pirate, the more ferocious they are.

On the contrary, those who are strong may not care, but they would not do something so degrading.

"You bastard!"

Thorf the vicious dog was indeed the strongest of these pirates. He was the first to swim over and climbed onto Dunn's ship with one hand. Then he took the large saw off his back and stared fiercely at Dunn.

This guy, didn't he see that I was the one who wrecked their ship?

Looking at the guy's angry expression, Dunn was puzzled.

Is this pirate not afraid of death?
