The old man was sweating in the courtyard.

An old man sat on the side, watching Yak training hard while stuffing senbei into his mouth one by one, and said in a vague and mocking tone: “You have no talent, and continuing to practice will only make you a little stronger.”

“Shut up, old man!”

Yak glared at the old man with a look of disgust.

This weird old man has been here for almost half a year.

At first, it was nothing, but later he came to see him training hard almost every day, and then there were all kinds of ridicule.

Yak swore that if he couldn’t beat this weird old man, he would definitely beat him to death.

“Brother Yak, Dr. Reddy is on the newspaper!”

Mia, who was already eight years old, ran into the courtyard with sweat all over her head, and excitedly raised the newspaper in her hand from a distance.

When passing by the old man, the old man suddenly reached out and snatched the newspaper from her hand.

“Three billion Baileys, what a terrible little devil hahahaha.”

The old man glanced at the headline on the front page, laughed and continued to read, but Yak snatched the newspaper and cast a contemptuous look.

Yak took back the newspaper, took a look and fell silent, his face full of entanglement.

Mia asked curiously: “Brother Yak, are you not happy to see Dr. Reddy in the newspaper?”

Yak was hesitant to speak.

He has been worshipping Reddy since that day three years ago, and has been working hard until now.

But Reddy has a bounty on his back and is called the fifth future sea emperor… He is very entangled.

“Little devil, you are afraid.”

The old man stuffed a piece of senbei into his mouth, and his words touched the pain in Yak’s heart.

“I didn’t!”

Yak pushed his black wide-brimmed hat and angrily retorted, but the next moment, his mood became depressed.

Did Dr. Reddy become a pirate?

“Having a bounty on him doesn’t necessarily mean he’s a pirate.”

As the old man said this, a hint of emotion flashed across his eyes, and he suddenly felt that the senbei in his hand was no longer fragrant.

“Really?”

Yak’s eyes lighted up again.

Mia then understood that Yak was entangled in whether Dr. Reddy, who had a bounty on his back, was a pirate, and immediately shouted angrily: “Dr. Reddy is a good man, and it’s impossible for him to become a hateful pirate!”

“Well, Dr. Reddy will never become a hateful pirate!”

Yak’s thoughts were clear, and he firmly supported Mia’s point of view. How could a man who could propose to create a beautiful paradise do bad things?

Even if he killed someone, it must be that the other party deserved to die!

Well, that’s it!

The old man smiled and said nothing. He stood up and patted off the senbei crumbs on his body, turned around and walked out of the manor.

Back at the naval base, Smoker came towards him with a newspaper.

“Vice Admiral Garp, that man…”

Smoker hesitated to speak. He had a good impression of Reddy and thought that this man had a rare and great ideal.

“The World Government is the World Government and cannot represent everyone.” Garp laughed and walked past Smoker.

Smoker was startled. When he came to his senses, he saw that Garp had gone far away. He hurriedly followed him and asked as he walked: “Vice Admiral Garp, what do you mean…”

Smoker did not dare to say it clearly because it involved sensitive topics.

Garp laughed: “Do you know why I stayed in Rogue Town for so long?”

Smoker hesitated and said: “Because of the Golden Lion?”

Garp laughed and slapped Smoker, making him stagger: “The Golden Lion is no longer the legendary pirate Golden Lion after disappearing for more than ten years.”

Smoker was confused and did not understand.

“Idiot!”

Garp slapped Smoker again without any hesitation, making him stagger: “I stayed here for so long because I didn’t want to clean up the mess for that old guy Zefa!”

Smoker had nothing to say.

Okay, you are strong and you are right, what else can I say.

“That’s what I planned to do.”

Garp changed the subject and said with a hint of excitement: “But I accidentally found a good navy seedling.”

“Ark?”

Smoker reacted quickly.

Garp said excitedly: “Yes, that kid doesn’t have much talent, but he is very determined and willing to work hard. I have observed him for so long and told him that he has no talent, but that kid always insists on training and has never slacked off for even a moment.”

Smoker took out a cigar and lit it, agreeing with him.

He also admired Ark.

In the past three years, Ark has done a great job, and has taken back orphans who were tricked into joining the gang from local gangs more than once.

There are now nearly three hundred orphans in the manor outside the base.

Under the leadership of Ark, these orphans are self-reliant, and everyone is working hard to make everyone live a better life.

“Zeffa likes this kind of kid.”

Garp excitedly punched his palm: “Maybe Zeeffa can discover his undiscovered talent.”

Smoker blew out a puff of smoke and shook his head helplessly: “That kid is very stubborn and doesn’t want to join the navy at all.”

Garp laughed: “I will use the iron fist of love to influence him!”

At night.

The orphans who went out to earn money returned to the manor one after another.

Mia saw a boy of about sixteen years old returning to the manor, and immediately raised the newspaper in her hand to greet him: “Brother Remo, look, Dr. Reddy is on the newspaper!”

“Show me now!”

Remo excitedly took the newspaper handed by Mia with both hands, and read it carefully as if he was making a pilgrimage.

Mia was very proud.

She showed this supplement to every companion who returned to the manor.

Remo pretended to be literate, read through it completely, and then turned to the front page headline, staring at Reddy’s photo excitedly: “Three billion Baileys… Doctor Reddy is worthy of being my idol.”

“Dr. Reddy is called the fifth future sea emperor by the newspaper, how shameless!”

Yak has completely accepted Garp’s explanation. He does not think Reddy is a pirate, but the newspaper is too shameless and arbitrarily classifies Reddy as a pirate.

“Where is the newspaper? I’m going to smash it!”

Since joining this team, Remo has been listening to the beautiful paradise described by Reddy at the beginning. He was deeply attracted and became a little fan of Reddy. He couldn’t stand the newspaper hyping his idol without bottom line.

“I heard that this newspaper is in some new world. The uncle in the butcher shop told me.”

The conversation between the two had already attracted other orphans. Upon hearing this, a little girl immediately actively provided clues.

Others also actively searched their memories and pieced together a little clue.

“So it’s in the Grand Line, that’s too far.”

The orphans felt sorry. If only they were in Rogue Town, they would go and smash the glass of his house tonight.

Only Remo swore solemnly: “When I grow up, I will go to the New World and smash this newspaper!”

Yak looked at the lively scene in front of him, feeling very depressed, and walked out of the manor alone in silence.

“Here.”

A man’s voice came from the shadows.

Yak walked over.

“This is the living expenses for next month, don’t lose it.”

The man turned around and was about to leave after telling the story, but was stopped by Yak from behind.

“Uncle Bill, I’m ashamed.”

Yak said dejectedly: “Remo and the others think that I rescued many people from the gang, but I know it was you who did it.”

Bill smiled nonchalantly: “I still have a reward on me, and you are a man recognized by Lord Reddy.”

“But…”

Yak hesitated.

As more and more people came to the manor, the 2.5 million Baileys Reddy gave them had already been spent.

For almost a year, they barely managed to survive thanks to Bill’s help.

“Don’t worry about it.”

Bill waved his hand, turned around and said, “The date that Lord Reddy agreed with you is coming soon, don’t let Lord Reddy down.”
