WHAT?!?!?! WHY?!?!?!?!?!?!

Once he finished chatting with Makino, Asdrerd rested for a while. Even if God had healed him, Asdrerd felt tired, so he closed his eyes thinking about the answers received.

Luffy was 7 years old, consequently, Shanks should have already arrived at the island.

Asdrerd thought that he had arrived in this world a few days before the beginning of the story, because the pirate stayed for a year on this island, or rather, he used it as a base, he did not stay still all the time.

From what he heard, he remained unconscious with fever for 6h before regaining consciousness.

Makino also asked about him but said he did not remember anything except his name. He didn't know what else to invent in cases like this, he used the excuse of amnesia to avoid further questions.

Since this village was quiet, he decided to stay for a while, to train himself to use his devil fruit.

He slept until the next morning before waking up in perfect condition. Once he got up, he put on the clothes on the chair next to the bed and went down the stairs to go to the room dedicated to the bar.

As he was going down the stairs, he heard party noises in the hall below. Once arrived, he saw the scene of the first chapter. The pirates of Shanks were celebrating the madness of Luffy, who cut himself under the eye with a knife. He also saw the crate containing the Gom Gom fruit, probably taken during this trip.

'So today is the beginning,' he thought after seeing all the clues.

"Asdrerd how's it going?"

Makino, seeing the boy awake, went immediately to greet him.

"After resting, I feel great, thanks for taking care of me." He thanked the girl. "Where's the old man from yesterday? I'd like to apologize to him."

"Ah, are you referring to Mr. Garp? He was busy with his job, so he had to leave yesterday after dinner." Makino smiled and briefly told about Garp's situation.

"Hey Luffy, who is that kid?" Shanks, the pirate crew captain, a man with a straw hat, medium length red hair and 3 scars on his left eye, seeing the scene, asked the boy sitting next to him.

"Ah, it's Asdrerd!" Seeing Asdrerd, Luffy called out loudly waving his hand. He was happy to see another child, and he wanted to make friends.

The two children sat next to chat.

"Asdrerd? Mhh I don't know why but I seem to have seen it somewhere already…" Shanks said and thought about it for a moment and then continued drinking.

Behind him came a man in a black T-shirt, black hair tied in a ponytail, while he was smoking a cigarette. It was Benn Beckman, the vice-captain of the crew.

"We saw it in the newspaper on the way back." Benn flipped through the new Bounty: "Ah, here it is!"

He handed the newspaper over to his captain.

"Mhh, the Naked Kid?" Shanks put his mug down and looked at the photo.

"Ahh, now I remember! They wrote in the newspaper that he infiltrated Marijoa and attacked the Celestial Dragons."

"WHAT!!?? WHYYYYYYYY!?!?!?" Asdrerd screamed after hearing the conversation between the two pirates.

After screaming, he had everyone's eyes on him.

"Could I check?" He asked trying to control himself.

Once he received the newspaper, he began to read the article dedicated to him.

[Yesterday an unknown child flew to the sacred territories of Marijoa. He wounded the noble Charlos, Rosward, and Shalria with a strange rainbow liquid and then left showing his ass to everyone present. Do not be fooled by its appearance, he is dangerous and must be delivered alive to the Celestial Dragons. For any information on the target you will be paid handsomely, contact any Navy base to report something.]

'I don't remember anything like that...' Asdrerd murmured in his mind. 'Wait... rainbow liquid? Don't tell me it's the fruit-derived vomiting?' He realized by making a shocked face.

"200 million for this trivial thing?" In a low voice, he complained.

'I just wanted to live peacefully,' he said in his mind.

'Mmmm, trivial? He doesn't seem satisfied with his bounty; does he think it's too little?' Shanks who was nearby heard Asdrerd complaining and thought about the reason for these complaints.

"Wow, you are famous Asdrerd! You already have a bounty, now I understand how you hurt my grandfather." Luffy looking at the poster (not understanding the number and various writings) and said enviously.

"𝙒𝙃𝘼𝙏?!" Shanks and the rest of the crew shouted in surprise.

'Did he hurt Garp? I understand why he feels so disappointed; his head is worth much more than 200 million, what a terrifying child.' With his mouth wide-open Shanks tried to imagine the scene (in an exaggerated way).

"Come on boy, get strength! I can understand your disappointment; a 200 million bounty for such a thing is unheard of."

Shanks tried to cheer Asdrerd up.

'As I could have expected from one of the 4 emperors, he understood everything, I did nothing to deserve this bounty,' Asdrerd said to himself in his head. He was looking at Shanks with tears in his eyes and with much respect in his gaze.

At that moment, mountain bandits entered the bar with Higuma at the head, a man with black hair and an X-shaped scar on the side of his forehead. These bandits were looking for drinks, this while Luffy was eating the devil fruit. Not finding a drink, they made fun of the pirates.

Shanks tried to give the last bottle of Sake left to Higuma, which he smashed with a punch, wetting and humiliating the pirate.

At that moment, however, a strange thing happened, all the bandits, including the leader and some of the pirates inside the bar, suddenly passed out.

'𝙒𝙃𝙔𝙔𝙔𝙔𝙔𝙔𝙔𝙔𝙔𝙔𝙔𝙔𝙔𝙔𝙔𝙔𝙔𝙔𝙔!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?!? !!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!??!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!'

Asdrerd shouted in his mind, he just wanted to paint in peace and because of this small trauma; he unconsciously used the conquering king's haki.

Only Shanks and his most loyal men were able to understand where they came from and were amazed to see Asdrerd sitting quietly.

'Did he use it to help our captain? What a kind boy!' The pirates immediately thought.

'Why?! It's not fair; I didn't do anything to deserve this bounty...' Asdrerd was complaining again in his mind.

"Asdrerd you should not have acted for such nonsense." Shanks was impressed by the kindness shown by the boy, so he decided to help him. "Let's do this; I saw that you are not satisfied with the bounty right? I'll do my best; give a warning to the navy."

"Really? Thanks so much!" Asdrerd began to understand why Shanks was one of the masses' favorite characters.

'He doesn't know me, and he decided to try to remove my bounty without asking for anything in return, how nice!' He thought after thanking.

"𝘿𝙖𝙝𝙖𝙝𝙖𝙝𝙖𝙝𝙖! Do not worry!" Shanks laughed after seeing hope return to the boy's eyes next to him.

'I'll make you put a bounty worthy of your powers, promise!' Shanks made this promise in his mind.
