The vast square.
All the Giants who heard the commotion came running and surrounded the square from the outside.
They all stared intently at the three people beside Fabuti.
Although they didn't know what had happened here, from the previous commotion and Kraidus's laughter, they could tell that Kraidus was one of the combatants, and the unfamiliar aura of the other party should belong to one of the three beside His Majesty Fabuti.
The Giants present had long heard of Kraidus's ambition, so the Giants who rushed over were actually divided into two factions.
One faction was the guards who rushed to support Fabuti, most of whom were middle-aged Giants.
The other faction was the young Giants who were initially summoned by the Giant who was with Kraidus.
The veteran Giant guards, of course, obeyed Fabuti's orders strictly and did not step into the square.
As for the young Giants on the other side, although they were agitated when they didn't see Kraidus, under the stern gazes of Fabuti and Karal, they also did not enter the square.
Although they were young and prone to impulsiveness.
This did not mean they were foolish.
From the traces in the middle of the square, it was clear that a fierce battle had taken place here earlier, but the battle was so short that it ended before they could arrive.
Since Kraidus was nowhere to be seen, it meant that Kraidus had likely been defeated and suppressed.
They never thought that Kraidus would die, after all, Kraidus was the strongest in their Giant race at this moment, and with Fabuti and Kanar also present, how could an outsider kill Kraidus? Moreover, there was no blood at the scene, nor Kraidus's body.
As if sensing Fabuti's difficulty, Kong Tai let go of Gu Yin Na, turned around, and smiled slightly at Fabuti.
Then, he politely bid farewell to Fabuti, "Alright, we are very happy that His Majesty Fabuti allowed us to witness the history of the Giant race. We will stop here for today. Goodbye."
"G-goodbye."
Fabuti, with a complicated expression, bid farewell to Kong Tai and then waved his hand at the Giants surrounding the square.
As he waved, the surrounding Giants instantly parted from the middle, revealing a passage.
Kong Tai chuckled, turned around, and took Gu Yin Na's hand, walking forward.
At this moment, the three individuals, as small as ants, walked among the Giants, bathed in the sunlight after the dark clouds had dispersed. They confidently and leisurely walked out of the Giant's encirclement and then leaped from the edge of the clouds outside the square.
Kong Tai left, leaving Fabuti troubled with state affairs.
In fact, if he waited a little longer, he wouldn't have to worry.
Because the Sword of Damocles that had plagued him and the Giant royal family would be pulled out by Kong Tai, no longer a shackle that bound the Giants' yearning for freedom.
In the following days, Kong Tai acted as if nothing had happened, and under Moro's guidance, he toured the entire Elbaf.
He witnessed many Giant tribes that were not found on the sea and were unheard of.
He also saw Giants known as demons, like Little Oz.
Although the demons might have intellectual deficiencies, their strength and height were unmatched among all Giants.
In their village, they even saw Giants over a hundred meters tall.
Afterward, they visited the royal city above the Tree of Adam again. This time, they were warmly welcomed by Fabuti and met Loki, who had emerged from the Land of Inheritance.
It seemed that Fabuti's royal demeanor, cultivated over hundreds of years of kingship, was quite imposing.
Kong Tai could see that although the young Giants harbored some hostility towards them, it was clearly much less than a few days ago.
After a pleasant time of hospitality, Kong Tai and his group set sail on the Thousand Sunny the next day at the first light of dawn, embarking on their next journey.
Although departure was accompanied by sadness, both Robin and Sauro wore smiles.
Sauro looked forward to Robin fulfilling Ohara's will and finding the true history of the Void Century.
However, he was unaware that in the royal city of Elbaf, there were records of the Void Century, and even older history.
Waving goodbye to Sauro, who stood on the shore and gazed at them for a long time, the Thousand Sunny, facing the rising sun, set off towards the next destination.
...
"Hey there, big guy, want a drink? Sauro told me you haven't come of age yet, but you can't go without drinks when you're adventuring at sea!"
Ah Hua, wearing a chef's hat and holding a tray, was pouring drinks from a barrel in front of him into glasses on the tray. He suddenly turned his head and asked the young Giant leaning against the ship's cabin, looking down at him.
"Can I drink it?"
Moro's eyes lit up as he looked at the barrel in front of Ah Hua. His nose twitched slightly, and he swallowed, asking tentatively.
"Of course," Ah Hua nodded without hesitation, but then he shook his head and said, "You can drink as much of this ordinary rum as you want, but you can't randomly drink the liquors in the kitchen. Those are good wines collected by Kong Tai."
Speaking of which, a hint of helplessness appeared on his face. "That guy is usually very generous, but when it comes to his wine, he gets furious with you, like a child guarding its food."
Bang—!
Just then, Kong Tai's figure suddenly appeared behind Ah Hua. Seeing him badmouthing him to Moro, he couldn't help but reach out and smack him on the back of the head.
"Who?"
"Who is it?"
"It must be Alo again, do you want to fight?"
Turning around abruptly, Ah Hua looked behind him furiously.
"Uh!"
When he saw Kong Tai behind him, Ah Hua's anger instantly turned into embarrassment. However, he then thought that he hadn't said anything wrong.
The guy was indeed stingy with his wine!
So his embarrassment instantly disappeared, and he greeted Kong Tai as if nothing had happened, "Hey~ Kong Tai, when did you get here? Should I mix you a refreshing chilled fruit wine for this midsummer?"
Kong Tai gave Ah Hua an exasperated look and turned to Moro, saying, "Don't listen to him rambling. Your uncle asked me to take good care of you. Now that you're on board, even if Sauro doesn't say it, we will take good care of you. From now on, you are a part of our team, and you can use everything on the ship freely, except for personal belongings, of course."
"Of course..."
Just as he finished speaking, Kong Tai's tone suddenly shifted, "Of course, when it comes to wine, you should stick to the ordinary ones! I'm afraid you'll get drunk if you drink too much of the good stuff."
As soon as he finished speaking, Kong Tai's figure disappeared from there.
Was this his way of showing Moro that he was stingy with his wine?
"See! I told you this guy was stingy!"
Seeing Kong Tai disappear, Ah Hua pouted, quickly straightened up, and turned back to continue speaking to Moro, "Let me tell you..."
