Lord of the Stars of the Grand Line

This is on a completely different level of difficulty compared to finding underground ruins within Alabasta...

Moreover, searching in this way is a waste of effort, inefficient, and extremely time-consuming.

For Luo Feng's team, time is of the essence right now. They will be setting sail soon, and his men must intensify their training to improve as much as possible. There is no time to waste.

So, on his way back, Luo Feng decided to wait a little longer.

When Sachi and his group found the Dark-Dark Fruit, it was stolen by Teach who killed them. Ace felt guilty and took the initiative to hunt down Teach.

At this point, it would undoubtedly be the safest time for him to make a move!

This not only saved a lot of time and effort, but also made it the best time to strike, as Teach and Ace were out of the Whitebeard Pirates' reach and had no one to protect them!

All you need to do is have your men keep an eye on their movements and arrive when the time is right.

After all, as long as Luo Feng doesn't interfere, these things are bound to happen. He can stay quietly behind the scenes and come out to reap the rewards at the most crucial moment!

With the altar in Alabasta, bringing Blackbeard here to obtain the Dark-Dark Fruit's power shouldn't be too difficult. Then…

This so-called 'technology' now belongs entirely to their team!

"No problem, Captain, I'll pass the word right away. Hahaha... We do have some reliable undercover agents in the New World."

Seeing that Luo Feng was serious, Crocodile forcibly suppressed his curiosity.

Although he was puzzled as to why Luo Feng would suddenly care about such a nobody, Ace and Sachi were, after all, captains, but Teach simply couldn't understand it.

But in the end, he didn't ask any questions and went directly to carry them out.

After Crocodile left, Luo Feng went to the training grounds of the senior officers, checked on everyone's training progress, gave them some pointers based on the characteristics of their respective abilities, and then assigned them the training direction for the next six months before leaving.

According to Luo Feng's plan, they will have about six months left in Alabasta.

During this period, in addition to keeping an eye on Teach and his men's movements, another equally important thing is to subject his men to hellish training!

After all, once you go to sea, you can imagine how terrifying the enemies you will face are.

At those times, there won't be as much time to train in peace, so you have to make the most of the next six months.

Not only these high-ranking officers, but also Crocodile, Law, and Vivi will face even more grueling training. As core members, they will undoubtedly have to become even stronger!

Although Crocodile's strength has been fully restored and he is powerful enough to stand out in the New World, considering what they will face in the future, it would be best if he could take it a step further!

When it comes to strength, the stronger the better, of course. Who would complain about being too strong? That would be crazy...

"Captain, it's all done. I've given all the orders."

As soon as Luo Feng returned to the training ground, he heard Crocodile's voice coming from there.

Luo Feng nodded and said, "Alright, now everyone should start focusing on training!"

"We have six months before we set sail."

"As I said before, we are different from other pirate crews. Once we set sail, we will face what kind of enemies. I think you all know very well."

"So, what you're about to undergo is a special, devilish training program that I've designed for each of you!"

"Okay, no problem. I want to become stronger and not hold Mr. Luo Feng back!" Weiwei was in high spirits. The Alabasta matter had been perfectly resolved, and she no longer had any worries.

"With Luo Feng in charge, let's begin!"

"Hahaha, I'm really looking forward to it..."

"Yes, Captain!"

Upon hearing this, everyone became quite excited, even Robin's eyes were filled with motivation!

Chapter 42 Crocodile: You're the real Sand-Sand Fruit user, aren't you!

Seeing that everyone's enthusiasm had been ignited, Luo Feng didn't waste any words and immediately began to make targeted arrangements for their training.

"Crocodile, your Armament Haki has recovered. Next, you need to focus on training your Observation Haki and developing your Devil Fruit abilities!"

Luo Feng accurately pointed out Crocodile's weakness.

To be honest, Crocodile's Observation Haki is really weak. After his Haki recovered, Luo Feng specifically tested it.

His Armament Haki is strong enough to match his actual strength, but his Observation Haki is quite lacking.

Otherwise, even if he lost his Haki, he shouldn't have been able to be defeated by Luffy with his instincts from years of possessing Observation Haki!

As a veteran powerhouse with decades of experience, he was actually stolen by Luffy, who doesn't even know Gear Second, using water.

Even if sand is afraid of water, it shouldn't be unable to avoid that level of attack.

Even if he couldn't dodge it at the time, he could have simply used sand to form an absolute defense around himself, just like Gaara, to prevent the water from getting on his body.

This involves the development of his Devil Fruit abilities.

Crocodile's Devil Fruit is actually very strong, but the number of techniques he has developed is pitifully small, and even somewhat limited.

For example, his ultimate skill, Erosion Reincarnation, is a very useful move in team fights.

However, he tied his own hands, content with the status quo, and did not continue to develop.

Imagine if, on top of the Erosion Reincarnation, Gaara's Sand Binding Prison and Sandstorm Funeral effects were added, this skill would be completely different.

The cycle of erosion will drain large areas of the ground and underground, turning them into deserts. Basically, everything within this area will become dried up.

However, it is not very useful for people with special Devil Fruit abilities or those who can fly.

However, if the Sand Binding Prison is added, the targets in the sky will also be within the attack range.

Add to that the immense power of the sandstorm funeral procession, and even if some powerful individuals can resist the sand's ability to absorb moisture from their bodies, or create protection using special Devil Fruit abilities, they might not be able to withstand this follow-up attack!

The key point is that, given Crocodile's abilities, he could easily use this move to create an area-of-effect attack!

This is just an example. Many of Gaara's moves can actually serve as references for Crocodile, allowing him to develop many useful and powerful moves!

After all, sand is inherently dense, and Crocodile could easily replicate the strongest shield and the strongest spear...

"Besides these, you can also study how to maximize the density of the sand to form a hard protective shell, which can be used as a clone in your own shape, and you don't need to expend energy to control it when you're not using it."

"When using it, it can completely pass for the real thing, and its actual combat effect should not be bad."

This was still one of Gaara's moves. Luo Feng told Crocodile all the moves he remembered.

As for how to develop it to its maximum potential, that's beyond Luo Feng's control; he can only provide ideas.

Now that Crocodile has fully recovered and is no longer in a state of despair, he will surely unleash his truly powerful moves!

After speaking, Luo Feng waved his hand, and a sense of gravity appeared on Crocodile's body.

"This is five times the normal gravity, which should be just the limit you can currently withstand. You can train under this gravity."

After hearing what Luo Feng said, Crocodile's expression turned somewhat strange, and he said, "The gravity level is fine, but kid captain, guhaha, should I start to doubt your age now?"

Upon hearing this, Luo Feng raised an eyebrow.

"I'm starting to suspect that you ate the Sand-Sand Fruit before me, otherwise where would you get so many strange ideas? So many directions, I wouldn't even think of them!"

Crocodile was starting to have doubts about life. Who was the real owner of this Devil Fruit?

Most importantly, after careful consideration, the development directions Luo Feng gave him turned out to be incredibly useful!

"As long as it works, that's fine. I've given you the idea; you can figure out the combinations yourself. I hope you won't disappoint me in six months."

Luo Feng chuckled slightly. Of course, he hoped that Crocodile could raise his strength to another level within the next six months.

After all, he's now definitely the second-in-command in their team!

"And Luo, you're the same. Your physical strength is too low, and your stamina can't keep up."

After talking about Crocodile, Luo Feng looked at Luo and began to point out his weaknesses and the direction of his training.

"Your ability is very useful. Just by changing the space of a ROOM, you've already started at a much higher level than others."

"It's because of your Devil Fruit ability that you're too reliant on it, and your stamina is too weak. If I'm not mistaken, you won't be able to use ROOM many times before you reach your limit, and you won't even be able to summon a ball of light."

Upon hearing this, Luo looked somewhat embarrassed and nodded silently.

Luo Feng knew that in the original One Piece world, when Law and Luffy went to fight Doflamingo, he first confronted Doflamingo, and after using ROOM several times in a row, he was exhausted.

The crucial point is that this is still two years later!

Compared to Crocodile, Luo Feng actually has more faith in Law's potential, after all, his Devil Fruit ability is just too abnormal!

Whether it's for support or direct combat, his abilities are incredibly useful, almost like a bug!

Law's only weakness is his poor physical fitness and lack of stamina. He also needs to fully develop his Armament Haki!

After all, if he wanted to cut his opponent in two, the prerequisite was that his Armament Haki was definitely stronger than the opponent's.

However, that's one thing; once your physical strength catches up, your Armament Haki will naturally become stronger.

“Your physical abilities are not as good as a crocodile's right now. I will apply three times the gravity to you first, and then gradually strengthen it as you improve.”

As he spoke, Luo Feng waved his hand again, adding three times the gravity to Luo.

His problem is easy to solve. Just like Luo Feng at the beginning, he only needs to focus on improving his physical strength and doesn't need to think about anything else.

Daily training under gravity is the most effective way to improve human strength!

Just like Goku in Dragon Ball, the speed at which his strength improves under the influence of gravity can only be described as terrifying!

Luo Feng himself was a beneficiary, so naturally he wouldn't doubt the efficiency of this method.

　 　洛风接着 说道2：5“所以苍群59，罗二，你把全4部的精0力灵都放在7训群2练体能上，我会给你不断的加 重说重 力小。3”

"Your Devil Fruit techniques are varied enough and very practical, so you don't need to spend as much energy developing your Devil Fruit abilities as Crocodile."

"However, your abilities have given me some ideas that might be useful to you..."

Chapter 43 The Flying Thunder God Technique of the Op-Op Fruit

"You said Luo Feng is in charge, I'm also very curious to know."

When Luo Feng expressed interest in his Devil Fruit ability, Luo's eyes lit up.

He had been listening attentively the whole time when Luo Feng was explaining things to Crocodile.

Like Crocodile, he was also surprised that Luo Feng had so many ways to develop other people's Devil Fruit abilities!

Compared to Crocodile, Law has always placed great importance on the development of Devil Fruits; otherwise, he wouldn't have used them in such an "extravagant" way, taking the Op-Op Fruit to such an extent.

Therefore, he was also eager to hear Luo Feng's advice regarding his Devil Fruit ability.

This is why Luo Feng brought it up; if he hadn't, Luo would probably have thrown away his aloofness again and eagerly sought his advice...
