One Piece: The user of the Nen-Nen Fruit, who overturned the sea.

Roy and his group finished their final training and returned to the island of Krakaina.

At this point, Hawkeye, who was still quite inexperienced, was also persuaded by Roy to successfully board the ship, but he still needed Saga's consent.

So how did he manage to convince him? Well, Roy knew which sword masters in this world he could challenge.

When Hawkeye, who was only sixteen years old at the time, heard this, he could no longer hold back.

After several hours of flight, the group slowly came to a stop in front of the castle gate.

Saga, who knew about their training plan, was already waiting at the door when Roy returned to the island.

Seeing that the group was emanating a faint aura of blood, Saga wondered how many Sea Kings they had slain, but he could still see their growth.

"It seems you've made great progress!"

Hawkeye was the first to step forward. "Teacher, I..."

Seeing Hawkeye hesitate and unable to speak, Roy stepped forward.

"Saga-senpai, Mihawk has agreed to join my crew, and he has also found his own way of the sword."

Saga stared at his carefully trained disciple, never expecting that Roy would steal him away in just four years.

"Roy, it seems your motives for coming to the island weren't pure. You said you just happened to be passing by, but I bet you came for Mihawk!"

"Hahaha~"

Roy looked embarrassed. After all, he had just taken away someone else's disciple. It wouldn't hurt him to say a few words. Besides, Saga had taught him, so he was practically Saga's disciple.

At this moment, Hawkeye stepped forward and bowed respectfully. "Master, I have found my own way of the sword. I also want to see a wider world and fight with more swordsmen."

"Is this your decision?"

Saga raised an eyebrow, and seeing Hawkeye's resolute expression, his expression changed and he showed relief.

"Hahaha~"

"Now that you've made your decision, how could I, as your teacher, possibly stop you from wanting to become stronger!"

"Oh~ Let's have a banquet!"

When Saga agreed to let Mihawk board the ship, the group cheered and soon a sumptuous dinner was laid out on the open ground.

The group raised their glasses, and Roy spoke first.

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome Mihawk aboard!"

"And today, our pirate crew is officially established—the Roy Pirates! Cheers!"

"Cheers!"

The group stood up and clinked glasses, their cheerful atmosphere influencing everyone around them.

Even the usually stern Saga was infected by their atmosphere and repeatedly clinked glasses with Roy and the others.

The banquet went on into the night, the campfire illuminating everyone's excited faces.

Roy put down his glass, his gaze sweeping over everyone around him. This was the result of his five years of hard work.

At this time, Roy, who was sixteen years old, had grown to 2.8 meters tall, and it was believed that reaching 3 meters in a few years would be no problem at all.

His long, blond hair was tied back, and he wore a black cloak over his shoulders, revealing his muscular chest. He wore green military trousers similar to Barrett's and matching military boots.

He no longer exuded the aristocratic air he had when wearing a suit; instead, he gained an air of domineering power.

He possesses all three types of Haki, with his Observation Haki reaching the level of future foresight, and his Armament Haki reaching the point of internal destruction.

Combined with his peak swordsmanship, his Devil Fruit ability that was practically a natural disaster on the sea, and his powerful mental strength,

During battle, each member can be connected, allowing the team to communicate seamlessly in their minds, making the team's combat power even more terrifying.

After four years of training, not only Roy became stronger, but the others also underwent significant changes.

Take Barrett for example. Now seventeen years old, he has grown to an astonishing five meters tall, with a muscular physique and the added advantage of his Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit powers.

With his current physique, he's probably no less powerful than Kaido. Add to that his Armament Haki with internal destructive capabilities and the Haki that even Roy envies, and he could fight an Emperor-level powerhouse for a whole day.

Hawkeye, dressed in a burgundy rose-colored trench coat, his chest bare, a cross necklace around his neck, and not yet wearing his top hat, carried his massive black sword, Night, on his back.

With eagle-like eyes, only a hair's breadth away from the great swordsman, and Armament Haki capable of causing internal destruction, coupled with Observation Haki even stronger than Bullet's, he exuded a sharp and imposing aura.

Roy had to be on his toes when fighting him, but the fact that Roy didn't shout out his moves made Roy feel that he wasn't exciting at all.

At only thirteen years old, Savi, perhaps due to some kind of hormone, was second only to Bullet in the Roy Pirates.

Becoming the second tallest competitor, coupled with muscles similar to Barrett's, makes him look quite intimidating.

Tesoro and Stella have both grown to their original heights. In the four years since, each of them has mastered both types of Haki, along with the ultimate-level Six Powers of the Navy.

Roy believed that they could hold their own even against ordinary vice admirals in the Shanghai Navy Headquarters.

Pea, who looks remarkably like Roy, also became the logistics manager of Roy's pirate crew.

The team benefits greatly from its ability to control the battlefield, heal by extracting life essence from plants, and have a constant supply of food.

With this group of incredibly talented and powerful partners, Roy will not fear any force in the world on this voyage.

Even if you can't win, you can always learn from the Golden Lion and fly into the air to make a safe retreat.

Over the next three days, Roy also inquired about the major events that had recently occurred on the high seas from Saga's perspective.

Saga, however, was not pleased with Roy, who had abducted his disciple, and simply threw him the newspapers he had collected over the past year, telling him to read them himself.

"Hey~ this old man..."

Roy gave a helpless, bitter smile, then opened the newspaper in his hand.

"The Great Pirate King Redfield battles Fleet Admiral Kong for ten days and ten nights, but is defeated and captured!!!"

"Tch~"

"The Navy really knows how to pat themselves on the back. They say they were no match for them and were captured, but in the end, Garp and Sengoku got the better of them."

Roy curled his lip, showing his disdain for the Navy's attitude.

Three of the Navy's "Monsters" Promoted to Vice Admiral/Rear Admiral at Headquarters!!!

"boring,"

Gecko Moria, the hero of the West Blue, has destroyed several Marine branches, becoming the first Supernova pirate of the year. It is rumored that he has left the West Blue for the Grand Line!!!

"Oh! Moriah?"

Roy saw another familiar face appear. At this time, Moria had not yet become the comical figure he would later become, and he still looked quite imposing.

The Roger Pirates disappeared in the waters off Jaya Island while being pursued by Marine heroes!!!

"Hmm~"

It seems Roger and his crew went to Skypiea. Hopefully, I can meet them there this time. Roy is even planning to ask Roger and his crew for tips on Conqueror's Haki entangling techniques!

After all, he and Rayleigh were old acquaintances!
