Not contacting each other is actually a form of protection.

As Guan Yi's strength rapidly increased, his subordinates, led by Alvida, were completely unable to keep up with him. Forcibly bringing them to the New World would only result in them being thrown into the margins, or even losing their lives to the aftershocks of a major battle like Whole Cake Island.

This force, which Guan Yi established when he was weak, can no longer help him at this moment; on the contrary, it may become a hindrance to him.

Therefore, during the three years Guan Yi left, she never contacted them again, showing an attitude of abandoning them, hoping that they could run their company and live a peaceful life.

This has been effective. Guan Yi has been wanted for so long, but the Navy hasn't bothered the logistics company. Guan Yi, the former president, is just a legend; the current president is Alvida.

Alvida's capture only proves that the World Government is truly out of options.

Whether there's a chance or not, it's all just wishful thinking. The Five Elders probably didn't have high hopes that this would pose a significant threat to Guan Yi, but it has to be said... it actually had some effect.

In the early stages of his exploration of the secret realm, Alvida and the others provided him with tremendous assistance. Whether it was arranging his food, clothing, shelter, and transportation, providing him with better conditions for cultivation, or the precious financial support he received in the early stages, all of these laid the most solid foundation for his rapid growth later on.

Guan Yi owes its current strength to at least one or two-tenths of its initial workforce.

I cannot stand by and watch someone die without offering help.

'It's impossible to always be on the offensive; there will always be times when you find yourself in a passive position.'

Guan Yi opened the plan.

[Life Points: 168588]

[You can spend 50000 life points to participate in the sixth interaction with a local celebrity in the third stage]

[You can spend 100000 life points to participate in the third stage, fourth international superstar interaction]

The Whole Cake Island battle, killing Shamrock, hunting Celestial Dragons, luring and killing Akainu... This series of actions, plus the capture of Alvida, has provided Guan Yi with tens of thousands of life points!
"One interaction with an international superstar, one interaction with a local star. If the Revolutionary Army also gets involved, there's a lot of room for maneuver."

Spend 100000 Life Points to activate the fourth international superstar interaction!

……

Kengan World, a certain battlefield.

Guan Yi opened his eyes and smelled the overwhelming stench of war and gunpowder. He felt his blood rushing and quickly entered a state of excitement.

Yujiro Hanma was not by his side.

This international superstar was far less responsible than Guo Haihuang, a local star. He would disappear from time to time, only constantly giving Guan Yi increasingly difficult mercenary missions.

"My next target..." Guan Yi concealed himself and peered into the distance: "is to independently dismantle the private army of a major drug lord, a fully equipped force of 800 men."

It's a challenge, let's do it!
Fighting, getting injured, recuperating, then fighting again.

This is a recurring experience and life for Guan Yi in his interactions with international superstars. In the following year, he worked exceptionally hard, and twice he even had to resort to divine intervention and exorcism to escape death through significant injuries.

But the more arduous training also brought greater results. His muscles and bones gradually transformed into something as hard as iron, and ordinary bullets could no longer penetrate his skin.

If he uses the dissipation or bear form, even if he is hit head-on by a shell, he will only suffer minor injuries and gradually transform into a monster.

Yujiro Hanma occasionally appeared in front of him, his eyes growing increasingly excited. Finally, after this international superstar interaction lasted for one year and two months, he uttered the 'line' that signified the end of this international superstar interaction.

"Hahaha, not bad, really not bad! In just over a year, you've destroyed nine private armed groups, participated in three wars, and dominated the war situation. The United States is going to award you the Nobel Peace Prize, Guan Yi!"

You're working even harder than before, and you've improved even more. It seems you're eager to fight me too... Almost there, almost there!

[The fourth international celebrity interaction has concluded]

[Physical Peak Ascension Progress: 65%]

[Gain a 65% bonus to physical fitness]

Sure enough, pressure makes you more motivated.

The first three interactions only increased by 15%, but this time it increased by 20%. Don't underestimate that 5% increase; the boost it brings is huge!

"I need to go back to my country." Guan Yi explained to the puzzled Hanma Yujiro, "I made a promise with Guo Haihuang that when I have the strength to challenge him, I will take the title of 'Sea Emperor' from him. I can't make him wait too long."

Yujiro Hanma grinned and said, "Hey, that old devil is the best at scheming. Go ahead, just don't fall into his trap."

……

"You're finally back, kid. I thought I'd have to wait until I'm two hundred to see you again."

More than four years have passed since Guo Haihuang began his training at the Guo family's palace. At 155 years old, Guo Haihuang looks almost unchanged from four years ago. Thanks to his profound martial arts skills, time seems to have stood still for him.

He pushed the wheelchair around Guan Yi twice, chuckled, and pinched Guan Yi's thigh.

"You've gotten much stronger, youth is truly wonderful. I heard you went to the Middle East with Yujiro Hanma to hone your martial arts? It seems you've gained a lot. How far have you progressed in mastering energy dissipation?"

Guan Yi smiled and said, "It's much better than before. I've come here specifically to ask Guo Haihuang for guidance."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Guo Haihuang smiled, his body floating up from the wheelchair, and climbed onto Guan Yi's back: "Let's go, take me for a walk at the foot of the mountain over there."

He chose the battlefield. A few minutes later, in the woods at the foot of the mountain, Guan Yi and Guo Haihuang stood facing each other, but the atmosphere was not particularly serious.

Guo Haihuang, still smiling, waved to Guan Yi and said, "Come on, attack! This is the final test of your martial arts skills. If you can surpass me technically, you'll have truly 'graduated'!"

Guan Yi walked step by step to him.

"okay."

Awooo—!!

An invisible dragon's roar suddenly tore through the air, and the moment Guan Yi finished speaking, he twisted all the power in his body into an indestructible torrent!

There was no probing, no greeting.

Four years of battlefield training had forged his iron-like bones and muscles into a powerful force. At the moment of full power, white mist faintly rose around Guan Yi's body. Under the punch that pierced and tore through the air, Guo Haihuang couldn't help but show a hint of astonishment on his face.

Boom——

The punch landed squarely on the chest of the 155-year-old man, sending his figure flying through the air in a straight line, covering a distance of dozens of meters, before finally crashing into a large tree with a thud!

Using his energy-dissipating technique, Guo Haihuang bounced off the tree as if boneless, landing on the ground. Seeing Guan Yi rushing towards him like a galloping horse, his blood surging, he quickly raised his hand: "Wait!"

Guan Yi stopped and asked, "What's wrong, Sea Emperor? Are you feeling unwell?"

Guo Haihuang frowned and said, "Your strength is quite well-honed, almost at two-tenths of that monster's level. But I want to test your martial arts skills, why are you using so much brute force?"

"Brute force and skill are both mine."

Guan Yi asked, "Is this a competition or just a test, Sea Emperor? If it's a skills test, I know I'm far inferior to you and need another ten years of practice. But if it's a competition, I'll naturally use the method that's most comfortable for me, combining strength and technique to attack!"

Guo Haihuang paused for two seconds, clearly seeing two things on Guan Yi's face: "I can't just rely on skill without using brute force to give you a chance to deal with me. I'm going to use my youth and strength, along with the techniques you taught me, to bully this old man!"
"Hahaha..." Guo Haihuang suddenly burst into laughter, waving his hand and saying, "Forget it, consider it a pass. Although your current strength and skills are not yet at their peak, there are not many people in the world who can surpass you in one aspect. If you insist on combining the two, it will be difficult for me to win. This old man is really not willing to suffer."

He said this, but Guan Yi could tell that his performance was probably the result Guo Haihuang wanted most, and it was also the goal Guo Haihuang had pointed out to him—the combination of strength and skill.

The final stage of the interaction between local celebrities is not only about defeating Guo Haihuang!

[Interaction with local celebrities has ended]

[Peak of Skill Climbing Index: 100%]

[Gain skill bonus: 100%]

When Guan Yi's consciousness returned to the world of One Piece, he immediately felt a sense of 'harmony' and 'completeness'.

Although the skill bonus only increases from 90% to 100%, the gains from that last 10% are almost equivalent to the entirety of the previous 90%!
Between the two calculations, 1*2 and 1*1.9, the former is always much more comfortable. Guan Yi's skill level has become Guan Yi + Guan Yi, instead of the previous Guan Yi + 0.9 Guan Yi!
After that, the bones are worn down, the body's strength increases rapidly, and the power rises sharply.

With 150000 life points spent, Guan Yi's strength has reached a new level!
