Chapter 123 - Chapter 123: The Past Between Garp and Chinjao

〖A man with a sharp, cone-shaped head appeared before everyone. He directly coated his conical head with Armament Haki.

Then, he unleashed his ultimate move, "Drill Dragon Nail, Chinjao Open the Door!", shattering the Jewel Ice Bed completely.〗

[Buggy the Clown: So that's how you get that treasure! Learned something new.]

[Captain John: I remember now. I think I saw him back then, originally planning to recruit him, but I was refused.]

[Big Mom Charlotte Linlin: Mamamama! I think that did happen. Now that you mention it, I remember. But the Chinjao the Drill from back then has actually become like this now. Truly unexpected.]

[Kaido of the Beasts: Back then, he was somewhat of a figure. Who would have thought after so many years, his strength hasn't progressed but regressed. Now it looks like he can't even beat Straw Hat Kid. He's completely become trash, wororororo!]

[Gecko Moria: To think the Emperors tried to recruit this Chinjao the Drill back in the day. Ah, right, they were all once crew members on a certain great pirate's ship, weren't they?]

[Magician Hawkins: A great pirate from back then has actually ended up like this. What exactly happened in between?]

[Koby: Huh? That ship... that person... he looks like Mr. Garp!]

[Tashigi: It's Mr. Garp! No mistake about it. That must be Mr. Garp when he was young!]

[Smoker: It seems the grudge between Mr. Garp and that Chinjao is about to be revealed.]

Just as everyone was wondering why Chinjao had become like this, Garp's appearance piqued everyone's curiosity.

They were eager to learn what exactly had happened between these two.

〖Just as Chinjao was shattering the Jewel Ice Bed, the camera suddenly cut to another scene.

A massive dog-headed warship appeared before everyone.

Garp was standing at the ship's bow, stretching his limbs.

"Hey, Chinjao! To crush your weird head today, I've been using mountains instead of sandbags for training. Up to now, I've already smashed eight great mountains!"

"Shiyahohoho! Is that so? What a pity. Unfortunately, no matter what you do, it's futile. Because in this world, nothing is harder than my drill head!"

Hearing Garp's confident words, Chinjao showed no fear. Instead, he laughed and retorted.

Seeing Chinjao's attitude, Garp said no more. He directly launched his famous Hero Fist at him.

"Chinjao, prepare yourself!"

Facing Garp's attack, Chinjao didn't dodge. He once again coated his sharp conical head with Armament Haki to meet it head-on.

"Hmph! Then I'll use my drill head to smash your proud iron fist, Garp!"

With a tremendous BOOM, their attacks collided. Garp's iron fist met Chinjao's drill head.

A terrifying explosive sound rang out. The surrounding land began to crack and split under the violent impact.

Even the sky was affected, ripples spreading through it.

This commotion lasted for a while until, with a furious roar from Garp, his iron fist overpowered Chinjao's drill head, completely crushing Chinjao's proud cone inward.

When Chinjao woke up later, the drill on his head still hadn't recovered.

Afterwards, he frantically returned to the Jewel Ice Bed, but no matter what he tried, he couldn't open it.

Even when he bashed his head until it bled, the Jewel Ice Bed remained undamaged. Chinjao could only weep as he looked at the countless treasures beneath the ice.

"Damn you, Garp! You bastard! I will never forgive you! I hate you! I'll hate you unto your grandson's generation, Garp...!" 〗

[Charlotte Cracker: So this is what happened between Garp and Chinjao. Now I understand why Chinjao hates Garp so much.]

[Jewelry Bonney: Actually, it's partly the Happo Navy's own fault. Who hides all their treasure under a glacier? Which genius came up with that idea?]

[Fire Tank Pirates Captain Capone Bege: Probably because of that proud drill head Chinjao had. Maybe every Happo Navy leader could learn that technique. That way, besides them, no one else could get the treasure.]

[Eustass Kid: Hah! How is that possible? If that were true, then why does that Chinjao hate Straw Hat so much? Could it be his successor hasn't learned this move yet? I think they were just stupid to choose such a hiding method. If they'd just hidden the treasure somewhere else properly, this never would have happened. So now he can only watch the treasure right in front of him but never possess it again.]

[Koby: But Mr. Garp truly lives up to being the Marine Hero! Judging by what others said, that Chinjao was a great pirate who dominated a region back then. Mr. Garp took him down with just one punch! He's truly amazing!]

[12th Leader of the Happo Navy, Chinjao: AAAAAAH! Damn you, Garp! I can't take it! To make me relive that nightmare again! No! I can't wait two more years! I'm setting sail now to take out your grandson! Straw Hat brat, you just wait!]

[Marine Hero Garp: Suit yourself. Luffy's no pushover. I've cleaned up his mess so many times; this time, he can take the heat for me! Hahahaha...!]

[Straw Hat Luffy: What's that, Gramps? I never made you clean up my mess! But that... whatever-his-name-is Pepper guy, if you're coming for me, then bring it on! Yoshi!]

[12th Leader of the Happo Navy, Chinjao: You damn Straw Hat brat! You're exactly like your grandfather! But for now, just watch how the future me in the video smashes you!]

〖After showing the past between Chinjao and Garp, the sky screen's view returned to Luffy.

Chinjao, filled with hatred for Garp, assumed a head-down, legs-split position and launched a fierce attack at Luffy.

He spun like a top, sweeping towards Luffy.

"Hasshoken, Armed Head Spin!"

Facing Chinjao's attack, Luffy was fully prepared, stopping his spin with a single blow.

"Gomu Gomu no... Jet Culverin!"

After Chinjao stopped, he and Luffy began a clash of physical techniques.

The speed of their fight increased until it was almost impossible to see with the naked eye. The intense impacts from their battle made the entire stage tremble.

The spectators watched the stage. Their eyes could no longer clearly see the two figures, only two black shadows moving around.〗
