『Chapter 9 | A Puff of Smoke』



 Garp lazily stood on the training grounds as he watched over Koby and Helmeppo get beaten up by their trainer. He munched on his rice crackers before he got called from the side with a rookie telling him that someone wanted to talk to him over the den den mushi.

 "Someone who claims to be your... uh... grandchild... wanted to talk to you, Garp-san." The rookie told him and presented a snail that mimicked a golden locked young girl.

 The old man wondered who it was but took the snail with no hesitation, "Garp speaking!"

 "Haha! Old man, Garp!" Someone he absolutely knows greeted him, which made him spew out the half-chewed crackers onto the rookie's face.

 "S-S-Sayua-chan?!" He panicked a bit but seemed happy before remembering something, "You brat! Get back to your home wherever you are now! Your parents are—"

 "Naaaaaaaaahhhhhhh...." The girl immediately cut his words off, "It's been over two years so I doubt they even care anymore. Buuuuuuuuuuut... that's not why I took the trouble of borrowing a transponder shell from this nice marine over here." She sounded as though she's laughing along with someone.

 "Sayua—"

 "I wanted to know if you have any juicy details about the other two's whereabouts...?" The girl cut his words again.

 Knowing that she's persistent, Garp singed in defeat. "The idiot one just went past Loguetown not a long while ago and is making quite a big mess. The other one? Pfft—I don't even know." He chuckled, looking over at the pink-haired trainee who's curiously looking back.

 "That's more than enough information." The girl confirmed, "Thanks, Gramps!" Then rudely hung up without even saying a goodbye.

 "That bratty lass..." The old hero sighed, throwing the snail back to the rookie who successfully caught it.

 "Uhm... Garp-san?"

 "Hm?" The old man turned to his side only to be faced by Koby's wondrous eyes.

 "Who was the caller? Whoever that was, she just asked about Luffy-san, didn't she?" The boy asked him.

 "Ah," Garp smiled, "she's someone who's not foolish enough to be a pirate."
