Summary:
Garp tells Luffy that he owes him an apology. Nami recognizes him as the hero of the marines. Luffy tells the others not to mess with his grandfather as Garp has nearly killed him on numerous occasions. Garp claims that the purpose of these incidents was to make Luffy a man.
Sanji recognizes where Luffy’s power comes from. Garp claims that he wanted Luffy to be a strong marine, which Luffy counters by claiming that he told him he wanted to be a pirate. Garp then claims that Luffy was poisoned by Shanks, which offended Luffy because Shanks saved his life. As Luffy’s crew panics when Garp suddenly grabs Luffy, they find the pair suddenly falling asleep. Garp, the first of the two to wake up, punches Luffy for falling asleep on him while the others point out that Garp did the same.
Usopp and Yokozuna continue to listen to the event while Garp goes on about Shanks. He explains that Shanks is one of the four emperors who are on the same level as Whitebeard, who is also an emperor. Garp tries to explain the three powers of the world, which in addition to the four emperors include the Seven Sea Warlords and the Marines. Robin is surprised that Luffy has a connection with Red Hair.
Zoro is still trying to find the others after hearing that the marines are here to arrest Luffy. Michael and Hoichael show him the way. Zoro causes a ruckus which attracts Garp’s attention. Garp sends two young marines after him. One stops Zora with his kukri knives. Another hits Luffy with Soru. Garp laughs as Luffy and Zoro easily defeat them. Luffy’s enemy stands up and asks Luffy if he knows who he is.
The soldier then introduces himself as Koby, Luffy’s friend whom he saved from Alvida, now a very different personality in both personality and appearance. Koby isn’t an officer yet, but he had to greet Luffy when he heard he was around. Helmeppo is also with him and has also changed dramatically, but is angry when neither Zoro nor Luffy recognize him until they belatedly recall him as Morgan’s spoiled son. Helmeppo says he can’t forgive them for not knowing who he was.
Garp orders his men to repair the wall he damaged. The men say that Garp should help repair the wall after he destroyed it. Garp explains that he did it because he thought it looked cool, and agrees when they protest.
As Garp is repairing the wall, he asks Luffy if he met his father in Loguetown, Luffy has no idea because he didn’t even know he had a father. Garp then announces that Luffy’s father is the revolutionary Monkey D. Dragon. Everyone around him, Marine and others, experience a sudden shock. No one knew that Drak had a son, his status as Garp’s son, let alone heard the full name Drak. Luffy wonders why everyone is panicking and who the Dragon is. Robin explains to him who his father is. While most pirates do not seek to go against the World Government, the Revolutionaries are building a force and aim to overthrow them.
Garp turns around and says that he shouldn’t have spoken and asked them to forget that he said anything, causing even more shock among everyone.
