Chapter 62: Capturing Monka

  He looked around and sniffed, the arrogant young man with a pointed chin scanned the crowd in the tavern: "Where is the woman?" Then, he saw a green-haired girl with a huge 'HAPPY' on her chest, his face suddenly turned red.

  "Is this what you meant by 'seeing colors'?" Monet exclaimed in surprise that Hobbs's prediction had actually come true.

  "Close enough!"

  "Hey!" The young man under the partition slapped the table and came to Hobodi's front: "Uncle, can you go for a walk, let me have a good talk with this big sister?"

  "Awesome, you can actually predict actions. I don't know about that though..." Mona stared straight at Hoboldy.

  "If you change this one point, then you'll be a perfect secretary." Hobodi ate his food with an expressionless face.

  "Hey, you!" The youth with the scar under his chin had a curved dagger stuck in the table: "I'm Colonel Mongka's son, and you're actually ignoring me."

  "Who are you?"

  "Split chin."

  "Haha——Wow, that's so well said! This uncle is really something! Haha...!" A young boy wearing a straw hat burst out laughing, and the bespectacled girl with pink hair beside him quickly pulled him back.

  "You two guys, I'll make you pay for this!" The young man with the split chin raised his knife in both hands and chopped down at Hobodi's head.

  "Huh?" The knife was just about to fall, when the youth with the split chin suddenly let out a surprised cry. He felt his body lose control, as if someone had pushed him from behind. With a thud, he fell backwards and sat on the ground.

  "Are you okay?" Mona asked with a feigned concerned smile, stroking the head of the cleft chin.

  "Uh..." The youth's face turned red as he lowered his head.

  Hoboldi watched the scene, expressionless, and said: "Little ghost, go back to your base and hug your bed sheet. This woman is my secretary. Go find motherly love somewhere else. Monet, don't try to cause me any more trouble."

  "He's also a poor kid who's been spoiled."

  "I'm not a spoiled kid!" The lower jaw seemed to have been stimulated, and he suddenly got up from the ground, holding a knife and smiling with his mouth open: "I advise you two to follow me obediently now, otherwise I'll ask my dad to execute you two like pirate hunter Zoro tomorrow!"

  "What?!" The bespectacled little punk on the other side exclaimed, while the straw-hatted kid next to him had already taken the lead in throwing a punch. It seemed as if his arm had stretched out, and with one punch, he hit the face of the punk under the partition.

  "Stop it, Luffy!"

  "Don't stop me, Kobi, this guy is a scumbag."

  "You bastards—" The slot below the chin covered his scorching face, and he rolled out in a hurry.

  "Didn't I just say that's what would happen?" Mona smiled wryly.

  "Despotism..."

  Soon after, the little boy wearing a straw hat and Kabi left from the entrance, followed by an orange-haired girl who also departed. The two Hobodi in the restaurant had already settled their bill.

  "Let's hurry up and catch up! That young man with the straw hat just now had an arm that could stretch like rubber, probably because he ate the Rubber-Rubber Fruit from the Superhuman-type Devil Fruits. If Moka is defeated by the pirates, it would be a wasted trip for us."

  "Also true. Did you know the identity of that girl just now?"

  "What? You're interested in girls of this age?" Monet asked curiously.

  "How is it possible? It just feels somewhat familiar."

  "Weren't you also very familiar with me?"

  “……”

  Before long, when Hobbit and the others arrived at the naval base, they found a very strange scene.

  A giant statue falls to the ground, and the Navy is frantically searching for the perpetrator. The perpetrator is a grass-hat boy, holding three knives in front of a man with a green headscarf and an apron tied around his waist at the Navy training grounds.

  "They seem to be about to make a move, are we really okay staying here?"

  "Is that Monkah?" Hobodi pointed at a tall blond flat-headed man.

  "Flexible and adaptable..."

  On a naval base training ground, Straw Hat Boy unties his first companion's rope, and morale is boosted just before taking action.

  "Three Swords Style..."

  "Wait."

  A figure suddenly appeared behind the two of them, and both Straw Hat Boy and Pirate Hunter Roronoa Zoro widened their eyes in unison.

  "Ah, it's just the big uncle from before."

  This man is unfathomable! Soron felt a chill in his heart, and with his keen senses, he hadn't detected the man's presence at all just now.

  "Naval affairs should still be left to the navy itself to handle."

  "Inside the Navy?" The straw-hatted kid tilted his head, thought for two or three seconds without understanding its meaning, and bowed: "Forget it, flexible..."

  "If you lay a hand on me, I'll tell your grandfather about your trip to the sea, Monkey D. Luffy." The words dropped like a bombshell, and the Straw Hat's outstretched hand froze in place as beads of sweat began to form on his face.

  "Hey, Luffy..." Soro's face was somewhat puzzled.

  "Hey mister, do you know Grandpa?" Monkey D. Luffy asked with some trepidation.

  "Let's talk about it later! First let me deal with things here." Hobodi turned to Axeman Monka, who was also carefully observing him.

  Before Hobardy could speak, Monka took the lead: "You just mentioned internal naval affairs, didn't you? Since you're a navy from Donghai, get out of my way. I'm Colonel Monka of Donghai, Axeman...".

  "This has nothing to do with the East Sea. I, Navy Headquarters Captain Hobadi, now arrest you on two counts: falsely claiming military achievements and abusing power to persecute civilians!"

  "What a joke! Impersonating an officer, I am Colonel Monka the Axehand!"

  "It seems that's indeed a hypnotized goods." Hoboldi shook his head, and with a kick of his foot, the ground rose up a yellow sand, and Hoboldi's figure suddenly appeared in front of Axeman Monka.

  Mongka had already raised the large axe in his right hand high, and with a downward chop, he chopped down on Hobodi's shoulder.

  "Uncle!" Luffy shouted in concern from a distance.

  Iron block.

  Clang!

  Meng Ka was stunned for a second, looking at the board axe in his hand in disbelief, and he couldn't even break the skin of the man in front of him.

  "What in the world are you wearing?! Are you like that little brat, having eaten a Devil Fruit or something?!" Monka shouted.

  "Nothing. I thought I'd test the hardness of my iron block that I've been training for a year and a half with you, but it seems you're not qualified..." Hobodi clenched his fist, his muscles tensing up.

  Hearing this humiliating remark, Monka's eyes widened in rage, and he raised his battle-axe high: "You bastard, go die!"

  Iron Fist!

  Boom!

  Hoboldi's fist collided with Monka's battle-axe, and suddenly, the axe handle embedded in Monka's right hand cracked, while the axe itself was directly crushed into small fragments.

  The surrounding naval soldiers were so shocked that their eyes almost popped out as they stared at this scene.

  Along with Hobody's other fist, it struck Moka's face, causing Moka's entire body to spin and fly backwards, finally crashing into the fortress wall, eyes rolled back and fell to the ground.

  "Awesome!" Luffy praised.

  The surrounding Marines stared blankly at this scene, the Colonel Monka who had been oppressing them for so long was actually solved so simply?

  "Too... too good..." Many naval soldiers took off their naval berets, threw away the knives and guns in their hands, cheered and hugged each other.

  "Can't you find two men to put him in prison?" Hobodi glared at the soldiers.

  "Hmm!"

  Hopper then turned his gaze to Monkey D. Luffy and Roronoa Zoro, both of whom were also sizing him up, one full of curiosity about what armor Hopper was wearing, the other with a cautious expression.

  "I didn't think we'd meet here, Monkey D. Luffy."

  "Huh? Do you know me, uncle?"

  "Hmm, I've known for a long time." Hobodi glanced at Monai beside him and to be honest, he felt a bit strange at this moment. This originally punk Hassard chapter's villainess met the main character without any reaction, especially that headband guy Roronoa, who was the man who cut her in half.

  "So this time, it's Grandpa who called you to catch me?" Monkey D. Luffy asked with a worried face.

  Hobodi shook his head: "No, your grandfather helped me, so you are a pirate, I won't arrest you now."

  "Commander, it seems like there's a little mouse in the base," Mona chimed in from beside him.

  Hobodi nodded and then said to Luffy and the others, "You all leave quickly! As for you, Koby, you have to stay. To be honest, your grandfather has asked me dozens of times at my base, I was annoyed to no end before coming to find you, didn't expect that you were on Yarrita's ship doing odd jobs for two years, but now it's already over."

  "Nani... it's all been figured out already." Koby's jaw almost hit the floor, but with Ruffy's encouraging gaze beside him, he mustered up his courage and walked up to Hopper: "Please let me join the Navy!"

  "This little scamp with a body full of useless flesh can't do anything." Hoboldi waved his hand: "Monet, let's go!"

  "It doesn't matter if I'm just a handyman now, I'll become a naval commander in the future!" Kobi's firm gaze shot over.

  Anyway, I'm going to take you back to your grandfather's side, or you communicate with your grandfather and join the navy, as long as it's not my unit, do whatever you want.

  "You have an hour, there's a phone bug in the base. If you have your grandfather's phone bug number, hurry up and call him back! I just don't want to be bothered by that old man (trust), if he agrees, I'll let you go. Do you understand? That little mouse wants to run away, but we can't."

  "Yes."
