“Sure! I wonder how Luffy is doing up at Mount Colubo!” Makino quickly nodded. She was just ordinary and dared not venture into Mount Colubo herself. The area was not only infested with mountain bandits but also thugs and pirates! So, Makino quickly began to pack, bringing plenty of food for Luffy preparing to accompany Rokujin into the mountains.
About an hour later, the two reached the vicinity of Dadan’s house. Suddenly, several mountain bandits burst from the side and blocked Rokujin and Makino. “Hey, what are you doing here?” one of them demanded.
“Ah!” Makino was startled, clutching Rokujin’s shirt and hiding behind him. “It’s okay!” Seeing this, Rokujin quickly reassured her and explained to the bandits in front of him, “My name is Rokujin. I’m Garp’s grandson. I’m here to check on Luffy and Ace; my grandpa asked me to see how they are doing!”
“Vice Admiral Garp…” The bandit’s face turned pale, and he immediately ran towards the house. “Boss! Boss! The grandson of Vice Admiral Garp is here!”
Turning his head to Makino with a smile, Rokujin said, “Makino, it’s okay, these bandits are friends of Grandpa.”
“Ah, so Luffy and Ace are here?” Makino asked, still a bit doubtful. It was hard to imagine why Garp would have Luffy fostered here. Could he really survive?
“Yes!” Rokujin nodded. Just then, Dadan emerged from the house, and Rokujin’s system interface instantly displayed her information. Character: Curly Dadan Level: E Skills: Physical Techniques (E), Axe Techniques (E)
After a glance at Rokujin to confirm his identity, Dadan said, “Luffy isn’t here at home; he must have gone to the junkyard terminal with Ace!”
“Sabo too?” Rokujin asked.
Dadan shook her head, “Who? I don’t know him!”
Rokujin chuckled, “Never mind!” Judging by her reaction, it didn’t seem like a lie. It appeared that Sabo hadn’t yet moved into Dadan’s house, and the incident at the junkyard terminal was still some time away. Rokujin mostly forgot the timelines from One Piece; he only vaguely remembered some events.
After a moment of thought, Rokujin said to Makino, “I’m going to find Luffy and Ace, Makino, stay here for now. I’ll be back soon!”
“Okay, be careful!” Makino bit her lip worriedly, advising him. She knew the mountain was dangerous.
Hearing Rokujin was leaving, Dadan frowned slightly, asking, “You sure you can handle it? Going to the junkyard terminal means crossing through this forest.”
“Don’t worry!” Rokujin smiled, and as he spoke, his right foot stomped on the ground, using ‘Soru’ to vanish from the spot. He reappeared on a nearby tree branch.
“Hss!” Stomping on the branch, he released ‘Soru’ again, swiftly moving through the trees. Soon, his figure gradually disappeared into the dense forest.
Watching the direction where Rokujin disappeared, Dadan commented, “He hasn’t been in the Navy long, but he’s already so strong? He’s learned Rokushiki already!” Though her strength wasn’t great, as a former pirate, she knew about the Rokushiki techniques.
On the other side, half an hour later, Rokujin crossed the entire forest and stood atop a hill, looking down and murmuring, “I wonder where Luffy and Ace are? If they’ve had any conflict with Bluejam!”
Below was a huge pile of junk. From atop the mountain, he could smell the various odors emanating from below, surrounded by a tall wall. Inside the wall was the residence area of Goa Kingdom’s nobility. Goa Kingdom was also known as the most beautiful country in the East Blue, and Sabo was a noble of the Goa Kingdom.
“No matter, I’ll go down and ask around to find out!” Saying this, Rokujin jumped down from the mountain. He continued leaping from cliffside to cliffside, using ‘Soru’ to reach the junkyard terminal at the fastest speed. Inside, ragged thugs were picking through the junk, with a single piece of jewelry sparking a fierce brawl among them until only one could stand, claiming the treasure. Rokujin, in his clean clothes, clearly did not fit in. Soon, a few thugs surrounded him, each wearing a sinister smile. Their intentions were clear.
Simultaneously, the system triggered a mission. **Ding, congratulations host, you have triggered a mission: Deal with the thugs, find out Luffy’s whereabouts, system reward
: +1 energy point!**
“Hehe!” Hearing the mission, Rokujin immediately smiled and glanced around at the thugs. All three were G-level! One of them, a bit tougher at G+, was named Haggai Rex, with blonde hair and a scar across his face.
“Boy, you aren’t from the junkyard, hand over anything valuable quickly!”
“I have money, but let’s see if you can take it!” Rokujin retorted with a cold laugh.
Before the thug could respond, Rokujin’s right foot stomped the ground, instantly appearing before the other two thugs. Drawing his sword, Reikaze, he swung. A flash of the blade! The other two thugs were struck, each receiving a bloody wound across their chests, collapsing to the ground.
“What…? What just happened?” The speed was too fast for Rex to comprehend, his face filled with shock.

Rokujin placed his blade at Rex’s throat, smiling slightly. “It’s just death. If you don’t want to die, you’d better answer my questions truthfully.”
“Okay, okay, I’ll tell you…” Rex quickly nodded, almost kneeling to beg Rokujin for mercy. With such formidable strength, how could he possibly stand a chance?
“Where are Ace and Sabo?” Rokujin asked.
Rex paused, then hurriedly responded, “Ace and the others should be at Pirate’s Bay, at the Bluejam Pirates’ base. Bluejam is looking for them.”
“Alright, that’s enough,” Rokujin contemplated briefly, then sheathed Reikaze.
“Thank you…” Before Rex could finish his gratitude, Rokujin kicked him in the chest.
“Thump!” A muffled sound echoed as Rex’s body curled like a shrimp, slamming heavily into a trash heap dozens of meters away, continuously spitting blood. The kick had ruptured his heart, sealing his fate. Rokujin had no habit of sparing his enemies. He knew all too well that many villains perished due to talking too much or showing mercy. When it’s time to kill, kill! In this world, staying alive was more important!
Seeing this, the other thugs around looked at Rokujin with renewed fear, no longer daring to provoke him.
Ding, congratulations host, mission completed, system reward: +1 energy point!
Afterward, Rokujin headed alone to Pirate’s Bay to find Luffy. That kid was most likely caught by Bluejam’s men and about to be beaten.
A few minutes later, as Rokujin arrived at Pirate’s Bay, he saw two children rush into a rundown room.
