He's a pirate, but also a Pokémon Master.

Guxin was not disappointed by this; on the contrary, he was quite interested, knowing that technology is equally important in the world of One Piece.

Dr. Vegapunk is a top-notch scientific talent with a constant stream of groundbreaking technologies, such as lineage factors, clones, and the ability to feed objects Devil Fruits.

If he had a Pokémon that was comparable to or even surpassed Vegapunk's, it would definitely be a great help!

Having finished his business, Guxin boarded the Ark of Proverbs and returned to Skypiea, while the robot was sent back by Gengar beforehand.

Soon, he returned to the sky island of Shandora, where the Victini remained.

It had been three months since I last saw my friends.

Meanwhile, they spent seven months on the Sky Island, completing their planned growth program, and are now completely different from before.

Shandora, on the Victini.

The members gathered here, and the seven months they spent here helped them grow a lot.

The most notable feature is that everyone has mastered two types of Haki.

It's important to know that dual-color Haki is standard in the new world where powerful individuals abound; otherwise, one would have absolutely no combat power.

Vivi, Urouge, and other members who originally did not possess Haki also mastered dual-color Haki during this period.

Chopper and Van Augur further amplify the domineering aura.

For example, Van Augur can now imbue bullets with his domineering aura, instantly boosting his combat power to a whole new level.

A sniper who can be domineering and a sniper who can't are two different things.

Yixiao has also made a lot of progress. Perhaps because she didn't have a clear direction before, following Guxin has solidified her path of struggle and improved her skills.

Guxin speculates that he should be at the level of a general two years later, as depicted in the original work.

Currently, among the crew members, Vivi, Chopper, and others have approximately A-rank strength, while Van Augur has A+-rank strength.

He himself is also quite good, with his own strength reaching S-class, and he owns two S-class Pokémon, Tyranitar and Dragonite.

In addition, Gardevoir successfully advanced from A+ rank to S- rank through its own training.

While its strength has increased significantly, a new term has also been added.

[Spatial Coordinates: Gardevoir possesses the ability to influence space, setting coordinates at a specific location. Regardless of the distance, the user can instantly return to the coordinate point. This can only be used once per day. Currently set coordinates: 1/1]

【Spatial coordinates】This is a very good term capability.

Gardevoir can return to its original coordinates no matter where it is.

Gusin decides to have Gardevoir set up coordinates in Shandora.

There is a large amount of gold here, but it is inconvenient for them to carry it all; they can only come and collect it when needed.

Meanwhile, the robot army, along with Lieutenant Spencer and others, is also stationed here; they serve as the team's reserve force, responsible for logistics.

After seven months, Sky Island has become their first base.

With support from the Sky Islanders, the presence of giant snake pets, a unique geographical location, and abundant resources, it's an ideal place to establish a base.

The only drawback is that Gardevoir can only set one coordinate at this time.

Therefore, after returning to the Sky Island, it cannot go directly back to its original location; it's essentially a one-way ticket.

This is a bit of a problem; availability is limited.

Guxin had no solution to this problem.

The only hope is that the number of coordinates will increase once Gardevoir's strength improves or it finds the corresponding Devil Fruit.

Gardevoir's performance also demonstrates another characteristic.

Perhaps when a Pokémon is promoted to S- rank, it will have two stats.

Whether it's Gardevoir, which has just been promoted to S-class, or Tyranitar and Dragonite, which were born at this level, they all confirm this conjecture.

This is good news, indicating that even if more and more powerful Pokémon join his team in the future, his early Pokémon will not leave the group and will still have great potential.

Because there is a significant gap between A-rank and S-rank, only Gardevoir successfully advanced to the A+ rank. Other Pokémon, such as Gengar and Snorlax, remain at the A+ rank.

But presumably, as they return to the sea, the speed at which Pokémon's strength increases will accelerate again.

time is limited.

After spending more than seven months on Skypiea, the Marineford War is drawing ever closer, and that magnificent battle is about to begin.

He wants to take advantage of the precious time ahead to further improve his strength!

While taking advantage of the chaos to steal Whitebeard's experience points, they also want to seize the powerful Paramecia-type Tremor-Tremor Fruit!

"Everyone, are you all ready?" Gu Xin asked with a smile.

"Ready!" Chopper jumped up eagerly, his little face beaming with excitement.

It hadn't seen Guxin for three months and missed him terribly.

Not only it, but the other companions were also filled with excitement.

Vivi looked at Guxin with a smile in her eyes, nodded slightly, and placed high hopes on him. Urki was even more excited...

Even Robin, during this time together, gradually lessened the barriers in her heart and began to open her heart to her companions.

Gu Xin looked around at his "achievements" and was filled with excitement.

From Van Augur, the first member recruited on Food Island.

Then there's Chopper, the mascot "kidnapped" from Drum Island.

And Vivi and Yixiao, with whom she met in Alabasta.

Robin, who was "protected" in Mock Town, met Urouge, whom she sparred with on Skypiea...

Having been in the world of One Piece for over a year, he has officially built a powerful crew, and now it's time to move towards his goal!

"Alright! Let's go!"

"Return to the sea!"

At Guxin's command, the Bictini, under Yixiao's control, descended straight from the sky island ten thousand meters high towards Qinghai!

His next target is Moria, located in the Devil's Triangle!

He had a grudge against the old man ever since he killed Absalom.

Moriah hated him to the core, leaving no room for reconciliation.

At that time, he was not strong enough and had no chance of defeating Moria, who was a Shichibukai. He even disregarded the gestation period of Water 7 and came to Drum Island, which was further ahead in the route.

Now that he has a strong and well-equipped army, it's time to deal with this potential threat, while also reaping experience points and Devil Fruit rewards.

Perhaps new Pokémon can be bred in Moria's base.

As for the gestation point in Water Seven, he'll go there again after he defeats Moria and bring it into existence.

On the vast sea, the sun shines brightly and the waves shimmer.

The Bictini sailed the seas once again after seven months.

On the deck, Vivi wore a permanent pointer on her fair wrist and a retracted weather stick at her waist, looking every bit the professional navigator.

Above her, bubbles floated lazily.

Their team had previously relied on an amateur navigator, Van Auger, as a part-time navigator, but now they finally have a formal and top-notch navigator.

After studying in Visalia for seven months, the exceptionally gifted Vivi has successfully graduated and is proficient in various climatology techniques.

Although the presence of floating bubbles meant the ship didn't require much from its navigators, Vivi successfully developed her own combat system after learning, making her strength incomparable to what it used to be.

Furthermore, as the power grows in the future, one "navigator" will definitely not be enough, and there will always be times when it is necessary to split up and act separately. Therefore, Vivi did not waste any time in these seven months.

Now, the team's division of labor is complete.

Captain, Guxin!

First mate, a smile!

Sniper, Van Augur!

Helmsman, Urki!

Chef, Gardevoir!

Navigator, Vivi/Floating Bubble!

Robin, the archaeologist!

Shipwright, meow!

Ship's doctor, Chopper/Happy Egg!

This is... the team of the Seven Warlords of the Sea!
