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

The door opens.

Ron appeared before her wearing a black t-shirt and white shorts. He had a well-proportioned and slender figure, medium-length black hair, and wispy bangs that fell across his forehead, making him look extremely clean and refreshing.

He has a well-proportioned and slender figure, and a calm and composed demeanor. Combined with his handsome face, which is definitely considered good-looking in the world of One Piece, he is extremely pleasing to the eye.

In two and a half years, Ron had grown a lot taller.

She's only half a head shorter than Tina, who is over 1.8 meters tall.

"Are you calling me over?"

Ron looked at Tina in front of him and said.

With her long, light pink hair cascading over her shoulders and sunglasses perched on her forehead, the stunningly beautiful Tina nodded to him with her arms crossed.

"Let's go then."

Ron picked up the Raiche that was leaning against the side, gripped the scabbard in his left hand, and walked out of the room.

The two walked side by side towards the outside of the building. Once outside, in the sunlight, Tina couldn't help but turn her head to look at Ron's profile beside her and ask:

"Are you really sure? Aren't you going to think about it anymore?"

"I have decided."

Ron said calmly.

"Is it……"

Tina looked somewhat disappointed upon hearing this.

Ron glanced at her and smiled:

"Although we won't be able to come to Marineford again in the future, we can still meet again on the high seas. Let's go out and have fun together then."

"Um……"

Malinvando.

Headquarters building.

After Tina brought Ron here, she didn't go inside with him, but waited downstairs.

Inside the headquarters building, admirals and other naval officers can be seen everywhere.

Some of them were people Ron knew, but most were strangers, and they all looked at Ron in different ways.

Ron, with a calm expression, was led by a naval officer to the marshal's office.

In the marshal's office.

Fleet Admiral Sengoku sat behind the table. To his left were three Vice Admirals Garp and Admiral candidate Aokiji Kuzan, and to his right were two Senior Advisors: Vice Admiral Tsuru and Admiral candidate Akainu Sakazuki.

When Ron stepped into the Marshal's office.

All eyes were on him, and the pressure they exerted was unbearable for most people, but Ron remained calm and composed.

Sengoku, behind the table, looked at Ron, who was standing at the door holding the famous sword Raikiri, and said:

“Ron, your three years as a specially recruited intern are over. It’s time to make a decision.”

…………

At the foot of the headquarters building.

Wearing a coat of justice and with a long sword hanging at her waist, Momousagi Gion strode over with her long, slender, and straight white legs to Tina, who was leaning against the wall, smoking a cigarette, and looking up at the sky.

“Gion-nee, you guessed right.”

"So he still doesn't intend to change his mind?"

"Peach Rabbit asked softly."

Tina exhaled a puff of smoke and hummed in agreement.

"That's really a pity."

As Tao Tu spoke, she glanced at the Marshal's office above.

These past two and a half years.

She grew closer and more familiar with Tina and Ron, and the three of them together were like two older sisters with a younger brother.

The two of them would visit him every time they returned from a mission.

It could be said that she and Tina watched Ron grow up.

And now.

He's leaving.

…………

Ron ultimately decided to leave the Navy.

After he made his decision, he left the Sengoku office with a decisive air.

"Zeff's situation has indeed affected his perception of the Navy..."

Lieutenant General Tsuru said calmly.

Sengoku clenched his fists slightly on the table.

Garp sighed.

Akainu simply snorted coldly.

"I've said it before, this internship system is a complete waste of talent. If he really had a sense of justice, he would have joined the Navy long ago without hesitation."

"If he becomes a pirate in the future, I'll be the first to kill him."

A hint of ferocity gleamed in Akainu's eyes beneath his hat brim.

"Shut up, Sakazuki."

The Warring States period was furious.

"He didn't get anything from our navy anyway, so whether he leaves or stays won't affect us much."

Aokiji spoke.

"Kuzan is right."

Crane spoke up, "When we agreed to his request, didn't we also consider that he might choose to leave? Since he has chosen to leave without retaining his status as a naval intern, then this matter ends here. If he shows any signs of wrongdoing..."

"It was I who invited him to join the Navy, and it was I who suggested the idea of ​​him becoming a Navy intern. If he becomes a villain on the high seas in the future, I... will take responsibility for it."

"Kapp said in a low voice."

Upon hearing Garp's words, the others fell silent.

Akainu stood up, adjusted his hat brim, and glanced sideways at Garp, saying:

"Hopefully, Lieutenant General Garp won't hold back when the time comes."

67. A Trip Beginning in the Sabaody Archipelago (4/8 Please Subscribe!)

A few days later.

A warship arrived at the Sabaody Archipelago, and Ron stepped off.

Wearing black trousers, a white t-shirt, and a military green hooded overcoat, with an orange travel hat on his head, he carried a backpack, held Raikiri in his hand, and turned his head to wave his free hand with a smile to Momousagi and Tina on the warship.

"That's enough. Gion, Tina, see you on the high seas again."

"Didn't I tell you to call me Sister Tina? You bastard Ron! Tina is furious!"

Tina shouted angrily at him.

Gion waved to him with a gentle smile.

"Take care on your journey. If you change your mind, come back."

With a cigarette dangling from her lips and sunglasses perched on her forehead, Tina leaned against the railing and shouted down at Ron, "Think about the consequences of your actions next time. I don't want to see you in prison next time..."

"I understand. That's all for now. Bye."

Ron turned around and waved to the two women with his back to them.

Tina rubbed her forehead, her beautiful face full of helplessness: "That guy still doesn't like to listen to what other people have to say, as always. Tina is so frustrated."

"Tina, do you know how strong Ron is now?"

"Eh?"

Tina was taken aback by Gion's sudden question, then thought for a moment: "I fought him half a year ago, and we fought to a draw. His strength should have increased a bit now, but it should still be about the same as mine."

Upon hearing her words, Gion's beautiful face beamed with an even wider smile.

"what happened?"

Tina asked, puzzled.

"No, it's nothing."
