I'm a big pirate, and you said I just went out to sea?

Chapter 154 The Old Man
Another new year.

It is now January of the year 1464 in the Haiyuan calendar.

More than half a year has passed since the battle in the Holy Land of Mary Geoise.

Locus left.

Half a year has passed.

For the past six months, Munger has received no information about Lox.

It was as if they had suddenly disappeared.

But Monger wouldn't worry about a brat who just left on his own.

That's at least the strength of a great pirate.

How could someone die so quietly?
Lipley, on the other hand, after resolving the Sphinx's future issues, finally experienced a transformation in her abilities, realizing the fruit awakening she had longed for.

Now, Lipley can shrink objects even without touching them.

If we disregard physical exertion.

So she can assimilate and shrink an island that is a thousand meters in size in an instant.

The most distinctive feature of Paramecia-type Devil Fruit powers awakening.

It means assimilation.

Although her combat power hasn't increased significantly, Lipley's current Devil Fruit ability is strong enough to easily break through Linlin's special constitution.

Unless Lingling actively uses her domineering aura for defense.

And in the new year, Lingling turned ten!
Lingling, now ten years old, has undergone a complete transformation compared to when she was six.

First of all, I'm not as fat anymore.

Before, Lingling looked like a chubby little girl.

But right now, I'm just slightly chubby.

Although she hasn't grown much taller, Linlin already shows signs of becoming the future Pirate Empress; she's incredibly cute.

As long as you don't end up looking old and faded.

In a few years, Lingling will be able to charm countless pirates when she goes out.

Next up is Newgate.

Since Rocks left, Newgate has become much more composed than before.

He finally showed some of the demeanor of the strongest man.

The best way for a person to grow is through setbacks.

After losing to Lox.

Newgate realized with a start that without power, he had no way to protect what was important to him.

If he had been powerful enough six months ago, would he have been able to make Rocks leave?
If Rocks dares to leave, just break his legs!
Although it was Munger who said this to him, Newgate wholeheartedly agreed.

Therefore, after realizing that his domineering aura had reached a bottleneck.

Newgate didn't hesitate to explode the Monger Gold Coin.

He ate the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, wanting to master the power he would eventually possess.

However, this ability is obviously not easy to master.

Newgate's strength actually decreased after eating the Tremor-Tremor Fruit.

He had absolutely no way to control the vibrations within his body.

So much so that I can see it even when I'm just walking down the street.

One careless step and you'll step into a huge pit and fall right in.

The reason we waited for half a year was...

One reason was for his mobile island, and the other was to wait for Newgate.

Wait until he fully masters his power!
This trip to Wano Country is not for fighting, but for training.

Therefore, Munger will not abandon Newgate.

His important family members did not abandon him because he became a burden.

Newgate was almost moved to tears.

However, as he got older, this kid's bad habits also became apparent.

Monger originally thought he was already a chauvinist.

As it turned out, Newgate was even more chauvinistic than he was.

"Captain, I think there are too many women on board. We men should handle the fighting. How can women participate in combat?"

Then Newgate got a beating from Lipley after her Devil Fruit powers awakened. "You brat, wait until you're stronger than me and Linlin before you say things like that!"

That's right.

Although he ate the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, Newgate, who only had a basic grasp of the Tremor-Tremor power, was still no match for Lipley and Linlin.

If we use a bounty to divide the spoils.

Newgate has only just reached the $100 million bounty level.

After awakening her Devil Fruit powers, Lipley's net worth approached 150 million Berries. When she sparred with the veteran crew members, Ed was no match for her, and even Lily almost lost to her.

Four years.

His new crew members have already caught up with the old ones.

If Lox were here.

If he doesn't slack off in the past six months, he might even be able to fight Roya.

But if we're talking about the fastest growth, it's Lingling.

Both Roya and Lily are great pirates who have mastered advanced Haki techniques.

Roya has mastered the internal sabotage techniques of Armament Haki.

Lily, on the other hand, possessed the ability to foresee the future using Observation Haki.

Although Lingling hasn't mastered advanced techniques for using domineering aura, she has a vast reserves of it, and its growth seems limitless.

As a result, Lingling's special physique also continuously improves her defense.

Lily can foresee the future.

But she couldn't break through Lingling's defenses!

While Roya can deal with Lingling, he is also getting old, and he has lingering health problems from his battle with Sebastian, so he can't fight a prolonged war now.

They can gain the upper hand in a short period of time.

Given enough time, Luo Ya might actually suffer an unexpected setback.

and so.

Linlin is now considered the most powerful fighter in the White Wolf Pirates besides him.

This left Munger somewhat bewildered, both amused and exasperated.

In addition, there's Stussy, their captain's doctor. After the trials at Acropolis Port, Monger officially accepted her as a member of the White Wolf Pirates and gave her the reward that was promised at the beginning.

Paramecia-type Hormone-Fluid Fruit!

When handing the fruit to Stussy, Munger repeatedly emphasized that it was a healing fruit that could enhance recovery abilities.

He didn't want Stusey to develop any other features.

As a doctor with a sound mind, Stussy naturally didn't think of anything else, nor would he have imagined that a fruit could achieve that level of success.

She only thinks.

"If I were to give Captain Monger an injection when he was injured, would I become the captain's wife the next day?"

After all, when you think of hormones, the first thing that comes to mind is sex hormones!

Stussy didn't know why Monger wasn't attacking him.

However, as Monger's power expanded...

Stussy felt he needed to speed up his progress in the strategy.

Her belly was full.

But unfortunately, Munger couldn't get on the court!

Therefore, every time Stusi looked at Munger, his eyes were filled with resentment.

In particular, they discovered that there was another female crew member on board.

Stussy became even more wary.

Could it be that Munger prefers women who are outgoing and capable?
But she's a doctor!

How can she become stronger?
Since the purpose of this trip to Wano Country is for training, the veteran crew members will not be going with us; instead, all the crew members who will be going will be new crew members.

Captain: Munger.

Full Crew: Lipley (Combatant & Warehouse Keeper), Newgate (Combatant), Linlin (Combatant), Toki Amatsuki (Logistics)
Doctor: Stusi
Interns: Shiki, Zephyr, Tsuru
A year later, Newgate and Lingling both became official crew members.

Tengetsu Toki officially joined the White Wolf Pirates.

And the number of interns has increased to three: Shiki, Zephyr, and Tsuru.

The White Wolf Pirates set sail once again!
