I'm at the top of One Piece

Moses gazed at the brightly lit port city in the distance, the entire port filled with all kinds of ships.

Merchant ships, pirate ships, transport ships, and even luxury sightseeing ships bearing the flags of other countries.

An enticing aroma filled the air, and the city nearby was bustling with activity; even from the warship, the noise was palpable.

"Food City. Puji"

A culinary paradise on the Grand Line, it is a chef's haven and a tourist destination.

However, due to its status as a tourist and food paradise, the area has become a mixed bag, with various forces intertwined.

deck,

Bogart stood at the cabin door, looking at the two rows of marines in front of him, and cleared his throat with two coughs.

"We will be docked here tonight. Vice Admiral Garp said you're given a night off and will assemble on the warship at seven o'clock tomorrow morning."

If you want to go to the food court, you can go in a little while, but you all need to change into casual clothes. Also, you are not allowed to disturb the peace or do anything illegal or disorderly.

Now! Dismissed!

Oooo! ! !

Both the marines and officers were overjoyed; they were all very happy to be able to have a trip here.

Not only is there delicious food here, but also many beautiful women from all over the country. They all have plenty of money in their pockets, so they should take this opportunity to have a good time.

From the window on the second floor of the cabin, Mercer looked at the lively scene on the deck below, then turned to look at Karp, who was already dressed in a floral shirt, floral shorts, and flip-flops.

Mercer had also changed his clothes, wearing a blue-gray short-sleeved shirt with a panda head printed on the chest, black cropped pants, and brown deerskin ankle boots.

She had a small shoulder bag slung across her body.

It's bulging inside.

At that moment, Garp, who was dressed, picked his nose and reached out his hand.

Mercer tilted his head, somewhat puzzled, and then placed his left hand on Garp's hand.

But the next second, Garp slapped Messer's hand away speechlessly, "What are you thinking? I asked you to give me pocket money, not to hold your hand."

Mercer's face darkened as he stared intently at Garp. After a few seconds, he muttered a speechless complaint.

"Sir, is this how you behave? What kind of grandfather goes out to play and then asks his grandson for money?"

"Just tell me if you're going to give it to me or not! How can you not give it to me?" Garp said angrily. "If I had money, would I be asking you for it?"

"You exchanged a small bag of gold beans for millions of Berries at the gold exchange on that island a few days ago, do you think I didn't know?"

Hearing this, Mercer was so angry her teeth itched. "That big mouth of Bogart, how can he say everything? Do you know how hard it is for me to save up my little stash of money?"

He pulled a wad of Beli from his shoulder bag, which looked to be well over 100,000, and slapped it into Garp's hand.

Garp immediately beamed, twirling the object in his hand with a cheerful grin. "Not bad, not bad at all. As expected of Grandpa's eldest grandson, much better than that kid Dragon."

"Cough cough!"

A cough sounded, and Bogart appeared in the doorway, dressed in an exquisite purple suit with a flower pinned to his chest, exuding a flamboyant air.

He was now watching the grandfather and grandson's actions with a strange look in his eyes, his right hand covering his mouth, his shoulders shrugging.

"Well, Vice Admiral Garp, we should be going too. We should go have some fun."

New author, new book! Looking forward to reading it!

Chapter 13 Clay Chickens and Earthenware Dogs!

Mercer's eyelids drooped, his eyes fixed on Bogart, his mouth opening and closing silently.

Bogart knew those were two words.

"traitor"

Instantly, Bogart was so angry that he clenched his teeth and spoke up:

"No, little Messer, how did I become a traitor?"

You yourself exchanged gold beans for money at the gold exchange and even bought clothes outside.

Your grandpa asked me if I bought it, and I said no. He then asked where I got the money, and I just told him the truth. It's not my fault.

"If I had known, I wouldn't have asked you to go out that day. I could have asked someone else to show you the way, and I would have even treated you to a meal later. We agreed to keep it a secret, but I never expected that you would turn around and betray me like that."

Listening to Messer's barrage of complaints, Bogart felt somewhat embarrassed. After all, he had acted dishonestly, and he said helplessly:

"How about I treat you to something to eat later, as an apology? Don't be angry, your grandpa isn't an outsider, is he?"

"I'm not angry, are you serious?" Mercer squinted at him. "I have quite an appetite, are you sure you want to treat me to a gourmet meal?"

Bogart rolled his eyes and sighed helplessly.

"Yes, I mean it.

"Tch, you promised to keep it a secret last time, but you betrayed me the moment you turned around."

"I don't think you're good at keeping secrets at all. I think you should quit your job in the navy. If you're ever so poor that you can't afford to eat, I'll reluctantly take you in as a guard for my house."

Bogart's face turned green, while Garp watched with amusement. Seeing the former's pleading look, Garp laughed and said, "Then treat me to something to eat later too."

Bogart sighed, patted his suit pocket, and wondered if Pele was still enough.

Bogart was aware of Garp's freeloading behavior; his boss was probably even poorer than he was. In recent years, Garp had used all of his salary and allowance to buy medicine for the kid in front of him, and Bogart had even helped him buy it.

They are sent to Cigu Island every year.

Ugh!

After lingering for a while, when the three of them arrived on the deck, there were hardly any people on the warship, except for those on duty.

Garp muttered to himself.

"A bunch of brats, they can't even hold onto a little spare cash, yet they dream of marrying the female soldiers on Ah He's ship. What a pipe dream."

“Those female soldiers have plenty of suitors. For men like them who can’t hold onto money, they can only daydream.”

“Bogart, don’t follow their example. If you want to marry one of Ahe’s female soldiers, you’d better save up some money. If the conditions are too poor, I’ll be too embarrassed to go to Ahe’s place to beg for you.”

Bogart's face turned green again, and his lips twitched violently. "Then you'd better not go and beg. I prefer the gentle type. Lieutenant General Tsuru's female soldiers are too fierce. I have a small appetite."

"Oh~ So you like soft and cute girls. Do you like to be a kept man?" Mercer chuckled softly. "That's right, the kind that are light and soft, delicate and charming. They can arouse your protective instincts, Uncle."

Bogart's face darkened as he looked at the father and son, feeling a surge of urge to punch them.

but.

The older generation can't beat them.

I wouldn't dare hit my grandchildren.

In a word: shameless!

He disembarked from the warship with a dark expression, quickening his pace, wanting nothing more than to escape from the two men as soon as possible.

But just a few seconds later, Moses' voice was heard.

"Uncle Bogart, why are you running so fast? Have you forgotten you're going to treat us to a big meal?"

"Yeah, Bogart, slow down. You young man have no respect for the elderly."

"Thank you so much, I haven't forgotten. Why didn't you two hurry up?" Bogart slowed his pace, feeling exhausted and a sense of gloom over his life. "This old man and this young man are devils."

The three of them walked out of the port and onto the bustling streets, brightly lit and filled with shouts and calls of vendors. The streets were lined with all sorts of stalls.

Before long, Moses had a lot of food in his hands.

It has to be said that this city truly lives up to its reputation as a culinary capital, with all sorts of classic snacks that make you want to eat your tongue too.

The food was different from what was served on warships.

The food served on warships prioritizes nutritional balance, followed by ensuring the color, aroma, and flavor of the ingredients.

Here, everything is geared towards deliciousness, with a wide variety of dishes that are visually appealing, fragrant, and delicious.

Mercer was dazzled by the variety of food and ate his way through the dishes. Garp was not to be outdone, and since he didn't have to pay for it himself, he could just keep eating his way through.

Bogart followed behind, looking utterly dejected. He should have known better; like father, like son. It seemed he had underestimated the father and son.

Mercer ripped off a string of octopus tentacles, chewed them, swallowed them, took a deep breath, felt the peristalsis of his stomach and intestines, increased the frequency of his breathing, and improved his digestive function.

Thanks to the gift of breathing that greatly enhances his ability to use his own body, Moses can now subtly and naturally interfere with his own organs.

There was already a sign of life returning. As digestion accelerated and nutrients were absorbed by the body, Mercer felt his body becoming warm and comfortable, and his previously protruding belly became flat again.

With a chuckle, Mercer continued his efforts to empty Bogart's wallet.

First came snacks, then desserts, followed by various main dishes. They ate one by one, and both Mercer and Garp enjoyed it very much. Bogart, who was paying the bill, looked bewildered, but soon joined in as well.

He realized that the father and son wanted to empty his wallet. Thinking of this, Bogart thought to himself, "I can't let them succeed. I can't let them suffer any more losses."

Let's get back to life.

then.

A beautiful sight has appeared.

A trio of three, old, middle-aged, and young, who ate and drank to their hearts' content wherever they went.

They're like a group of gourmets from out of town who came all the way to Puji just for show.

As a result, many people have taken notice of this trio.

Watching them spend money like water.

Whether it's cheap or expensive, as long as it's delicious, I'll eat my fill before moving on to the next place.

Unfriendly glances kept sweeping around, but when they saw the two adults, one as burly as a bear and the other in a suit with a knife at his waist, many petty thieves were deterred.

After some time, while walking down the street eating candied hawthorns to aid digestion, Bogart approached awkwardly, fidgeting and hesitant.

"Hey, little Messer, are you full? I see you've eaten quite a bit. How about we go to the beach for some fresh air?"

Is it a northwest wind?

Upon seeing this, Garp's lips curled into a smile, but he remained impassive as he watched Moses, wanting to see what his grandson would do next.

Similarly, Moses laughed.
