Sailing at Sea: The Breath of the Day at the Start

Once you understand the principles, and with plenty of practice, it's not impossible to quickly master them.

He glanced at Ron.

The Six Styles of the Navy seem to be quite simple for this kid.

"Do you want to learn all six styles of the Navy?"

Zefa put down his water glass and asked him.

To his surprise.

Ron shook his head: "No, don't bite off more than you can chew. I only need to learn the Storm Kick, Shave, and Moonwalk."

"Don't bite off more than you can chew... That saying really gets to the heart of the matter."

Zefa was increasingly surprised and astonished by the black-haired boy in front of him.

"For Moonwalk, you only need to convert your power into leg strength and burst into motion in mid-air. With your current strength, you should be able to do it too."

Zephyr casually explained the principles and tricks of Moonwalk to Ron.

Ron's eyes flickered slightly.

Just as Garp said.

Zephyr couldn't help but mentor those he saw as having potential...

"Have you mastered Observation Haki?"

"No, not yet."

Ron shook his head.

“Is that so?” Zephyr nodded. “Observation Haki is different from Armament Haki. Most people awaken Observation Haki after experiencing some kind of intense stimulus that can greatly affect their emotions. You are still young and probably haven’t experienced that yet, so there’s no need to rush.”

"I know."

50. The Sins of Pirates, the Incompetence of the Navy (3/5, please collect, give flowers, and rate)

"That's good."

Zefa looked at his youthful face and nodded.

Looking into those clear, calm eyes, he couldn't help but turn his head to look at the photo on the table.

The woman in the photo is holding an infant in her arms, and she has a bright smile on her face.

"Ron, have you ever killed anyone?"

Zefa suddenly asked.

Ron hummed in agreement.

"I am known as 'Zeff the Unkillable,' and I have spent my life slaying countless pirates, but ironically, my family was killed by pirates."

Zephyr said in a low voice, "I hate pirates!"

Ron was silent.

"I am old now, not as strong as I was in my youth, and it is becoming increasingly difficult to fight pirates. And now, the pirates who run rampant on the seas are more numerous, stronger, and more lawless than before! The evil they have committed could fill the entire ocean!"

Zephyr clenched his fists, his tone filled with hatred and resentment towards the pirates and his own growing old.

He took off his sunglasses, looked at Ron, and his eyes were extremely solemn and serious:

“Ron, my boy, your potential is greater than I have ever seen before.”

"If you're willing to join the Navy, I'm willing to teach you everything I know! In less than five years, you'll definitely become more than ten times stronger than you are now! In ten years, do you think you can become the youngest admiral in the history of the Navy!"

Ron shook his head.

"I don't plan to consider this for the time being."

Zefa's face darkened, and he abruptly stood up.

He put on sunglasses and looked down at Ron.

Suddenly.

A powerful sense of pressure instantly fell on Ron's shoulder.

"Then I'll let you see the evil of pirates clearly first, and then you can decide whether you want to consider it or not."

Zefa strode out of the house.

soon.

The warship then left the harbor and sailed out of Marineford.

Naval Headquarters Building.

Sengoku and Tsuru stood at the railing, watching the departing warship.

"Zeff has become too obsessed with the methods used against pirates over the years. I wonder if this will cause any trouble."

He said with some concern.

"Although Zephyr is old and not as strong as he was in his youth, he is still the Admiral Black Arm Zephyr of our Navy Headquarters." Sengoku, wearing a Navy hat, said with his arms crossed. "There shouldn't be any pirates crazy enough to want to provoke him."

"I hope so."

…………

Zepha's warships left Marineford and sailed on the vast ocean.

The new naval recruits performed their duties in an orderly manner.

Others exercised and competed on the deck.

Unwilling to accept defeat last time, Ain once again sought out Ron, wanting to have another match with him.

Ron, who planned to continue practicing his shave, moonwalk, and storm kick techniques, was more than happy to have this suitable and pleasing-looking sparring partner.

After seven days of continuous fighting.

Ron was completely familiar with Shave and Tempest Kick, and even had some clues about Moonwalk.

soon.

The warship arrived at an island that had been occupied and controlled by a pirate crew.

"This is the Ghost Hand Pirates. Their leader, Ghost Hand, is a Devil Fruit user with a bounty of 3700 million Berries."

Zephyr addressed the group of naval freshmen, including Ain, Binz, and Shuji, who were in front of him.

"Your mission is to completely destroy the Ghost Hand Pirates! Don't let a single pirate escape! Do you understand?!"

Zefa addressed the line of people standing ramrod straight before him with their hands behind their backs in a stern tone.

"I heard you clearly, Professor Zephyr!"

"Alright! Let's go now! Ron, you come too."

Ain and other naval freshmen disembarked first, carrying their weapons.

Zephat followed behind with Ron and several lieutenants.

Some troops were also left on the warship.

[Beep, host location detected—Siglie Island. You may check in now. Do you wish to check in?]

"Sign in."

[Sign-in successful. Sign-in reward: Health +10.]

With the strength and weaponry of Ain and his crew, dealing with a pirate crew with a bounty of 3700 million is not a difficult task.

Without having to lift a finger, Zephyr led Ron into the island controlled by the pirate crew.

Large numbers of ragged, emaciated civilians were mining in the mines. Women were treated like livestock, including many underage girls who were only wrapped in rags, their skin covered in bruises, and their eyes devoid of life.

"This is what you wanted to show me?"

Ron's cold voice rang out behind Zephyr.

"It's not just these."

Zefa pointed to the distance.

The pirates launched a fierce counterattack before they were captured.

Especially the captain of the Ghost Hand Pirates, who used the power of the Devil Fruit to make his hands like the hands of a demon. After being injured by Ain's Tempest Kick, he grabbed his companion and, ignoring his desperate pleas for mercy, directly pierced his sharp claws into his body, using his fruit power to absorb his blood to recover himself.

"Betrayal, cruelty, cold-bloodedness, madness... This is pirates, this is the evil of this world."

Zefa stared in that direction, his cold tone filled with hatred.

Ron glanced at the battlefield, then at the despairing, numb civilians around him, and finally his gaze settled on Zephyr's tall figure. He said coldly:

"I did see the evil of the pirates, but at the same time I also saw the incompetence of the Navy."

Zephyr slowly turned his head and stared at Ron.

"The Navy's...incompetence?"

"If the navy wasn't incompetent, why would they allow these pirates to wreak havoc on this island for so long?"
