One Piece: Enhanced Supreme Grade Sword

Such powerful weapons mean that the naval admirals' combat capabilities have been greatly enhanced.

Lieutenant General Tsuru also smiled broadly, but her aged face was more kind and gentle as she said, "After 12 enhancements, there is a chance of failure, but it also proves that the benefits of enhancement are higher, and the effects and combat power are stronger."

"Such a weapon is only suitable for the Navy's strongest combat force, and it can also be considered a secret weapon of the Navy. The news that it can increase power after being enhanced to level 13 should not be revealed for the time being."

"In addition, we need to find a way to get Hill and Peggapunk to research how to increase the success rate of Seastone enhancement, and ideally, to create higher-level enhanced weapons."

The others also agreed with Lieutenant General Tsuru's opinion.

at this time.

Kizaru looked dejected, his face drooping, indicating a somewhat gloomy mood.

He had failed to enhance his own twice, while Sakazuki had succeeded on his first try, which made him somewhat envious.

The two +12 Kusanagi swords shattered, leaving Kizaru somewhat heartbroken.

Looking at the +13 enhanced gloves, his eyes behind the sunglasses were burning with desire.

Everyone was overjoyed, except for Kizaru, who was in low spirits. He rubbed his chin and thought to himself, "These enhancement stones were invented by Hill, so he definitely knows more about them than we do. I'll have to ask him when I have time if my Ama-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi can be upgraded to a higher level. It all depends on him."

Kizaru made up his mind to ask Hill if there was any way to help.

Hill is a professional in this area; he certainly knows a lot about it.

Thinking of this, the gloom of the two failed enhancement attempts in Kizaru's heart was swept away, and he even felt a little smug about his idea.

"Hehe, I am the highest-ranking officer in charge of the scientific force. Although I don't go there often, I still have some say."

"Yes, I should spend more time with the science units in the future."

In the office.

Akainu is not someone who is easily satisfied. Having sensed the power of the +13 gauntlet, he immediately took out another gauntlet.

He took off the glove on his right hand and carefully put it back in his pocket.

Then, he began to pick up a strengthening stone from the box.

Seeing Akainu's actions, Sengoku and the others paid close attention. It seemed he was about to upgrade the other glove to +13 as well.

But he had just successfully enhanced the glove, and now he wanted to continue enhancing it.

Aren't you afraid of failure?

Everyone was pondering this question, but no one spoke up to stop them, as they were also very curious about whether the enhancement would be successful.

Someone has to try.

Akainu's sharply defined face, illuminated by the light of the enhancement stone, appeared quite stern, yet beneath that sternness lay a hint of excitement and anticipation.

No one wants something that strengthens "themselves" to fail.

Admiral Akainu was no exception.

His heartstrings tightened unconsciously, his eyes fixed on the enhancement stone in his hand until he saw it finally disappear.

Akainu breathed a sigh of relief, followed by overwhelming joy.

It worked!

Gloves with a +13 rating.

Akainu could no longer contain his emotions and burst into laughter, "Hahaha... I actually succeeded! I never thought I'd be so lucky, succeeding twice in a row."

However, he also knew that too much of a good thing can be bad. The two successes did not cloud Akainu's judgment, prompting him to try strengthening to level 14 again.

Temporary luck doesn't guarantee lifelong luck.

He knew exactly what was going on.

"Yes, with these gloves, Sakazuki's fighting power will be greatly enhanced. Given Whitebeard's physical condition, Sakazuki's chances of victory are quite high," Sengoku said with a smile.

However, a detailed strategic planning meeting is needed for the war against the Whitebeard Pirates. Currently, he and Vice Admiral Tsuru are discussing the general deployment.

The plan has been developed in great detail, but we still need to brainstorm on more details in order to minimize naval losses in this war.

They can also reap greater rewards and prestige.

Upon hearing Sengoku mention Whitebeard's name, a glint of fighting spirit flashed in Akainu's eyes. He sneered, "Just a loser from the old era. The strongest man in the world? He's nothing but a dying old man. If he dares to come to Marine Headquarters..."

"This time, I, Sakazuki, will make him understand that all pirates deserve to die!"

"Make the Whitebeard Pirates disappear from this world completely!"

His voice was full of confidence, yet also chillingly menacing.

Hearing the violent and murderous voice, Aokiji, who was sitting on the sofa, couldn't help but glance at Akainu and silently pulled down his eye mask.

Cover your eyes.

He propped his head up with his right hand, as if he were asleep.

Kizaru's lips curled into a faint smile. "I wonder just how terrifying a +13 gauntlet will be in battle, and whether Whitebeard can withstand it."

"The current Sakazuki is a complete monster, he's terrifying!"

With his gloves enhanced to +13 and sunglasses enhanced to +12, his dynamic vision has reached a terrifying level, far surpassing that of many excellent predators in nature.

I also experienced how terrifying the +13 reinforced gloves are.

He silently sighed to himself: "The navy is still the best."

Sengoku then looked at Aokiji and asked, "Kuzan, why don't you try strengthening your ice sword and see if you can get it to level 13?"

The Navy's three strongest combat forces are incredibly powerful; each increase in strength is extraordinary, making them veritable humanoid catastrophes.

They are no longer a powerful opponent that can be defeated simply by numbers.

Every bit of strength it brings will instill fear and despair in its enemies, and will help suppress powerful pirates.

Aokiji said casually, "Oh, la la la... let's wait until I'm in a better mood. Maybe the chances of success will be higher then."

He then removed his blindfold. "I've rested enough; we can begin the mission now!"

[I'm not saving any more of JB's drafts! Everyone, read them first, enjoy them, and then we'll talk! I'm giving away free gifts, please shower me with them! Click the "update now" button, watch the ads, I'm writing like crazy, please, don't let me languish, I'm going to die from it.]

Chapter 71 A Man Who Strives to Be Strong All His Life: Sixth Update

A rare serious look appeared on Aokiji's face as he lifted his eyepatch to his forehead and looked at Fleet Admiral Sengoku.

"Alright, this mission of escorting the enhancement stone will be handled by you and Akainu, who will be responsible for guarding the warship. Akainu will be responsible for escorting the warship to the Holy Land of Mary Geoise," Sengoku said with a serious expression.

His gaze shifted from Akainu to Aokiji, and he continued, "Kuzan will be in charge of transporting the warships to the New World."

"Contact us immediately if any issues arise."

Enhancement stones are extremely important strategic resources, especially since this shipment will contain more than 1 enhancement stones, although they will be sent to Mary Geoise and the New World naval branch base.

Each batch contains hundreds to almost a thousand enhancement stones, and Marshal Sengoku does not want any mistakes to happen, especially since the information about enhancement stones is now known throughout the seas.

Therefore, they simply deployed the Navy's strongest fighting force, the Navy Admirals!

Make sure to be foolproof.

The enhancement stones were taken away by Akainu and Aokiji in batches.

Lieutenant General Tsuru's voice was low and deep. "I wonder if that spy will come forward. If he does, we'll have a chance to find him this time."

With a naval admiral in charge, she felt quite at ease. Moreover, the admiral's operation was done secretly, while the transport was still handled by elite vice admirals from the Navy Headquarters.

Success or failure.

Everything depends on how important the enhancement stone is to the enemy.

Sengoku nodded. "Yes, whether we find him or not, our Navy's focus should be on executing Ace and dealing with the Whitebeard Pirates."

He then asked Vice Admiral Tsuru, "Is Garp's mood stable? I hope he doesn't cause any trouble at this crucial moment."

He was a little worried that Garp might cause trouble at this crucial moment. He knew Garp very well; despite Garp's white hair, his strength was still incredibly formidable.

The key point is that the guy also got a pair of +12 enhanced fists.

This punch landed.

Ordinary mountains are no longer enough for this guy to smash.

"He has already gone to Impel Down to see Ace. His emotions are... relatively stable for now, but you can also see the depth of their feelings for each other. That day..." Vice Admiral Tsuru didn't know how to put it.

She never expected that before his death, Pirate King Roger would entrust his son to Garp of the Navy, and that he would raise him for more than ten years.

That old guy Garp is known for being sentimental and loyal.

This is really difficult!

"Hey~!"

Sengoku couldn't help but sigh, "I'll try my best to keep an eye on Garp, and hopefully he won't do anything wrong..."

"I hope he can prioritize the bigger picture," Lieutenant General Tsuru replied calmly.

The next day.

Hill woke up leisurely, washed up, and pondered how to spend the day.

The doorbell rang outside the laboratory.

He emerged from the separate bedroom, walked through the enormous laboratory, and opened the door.

Standing outside the door was Sentomaru. Hill smiled and said, "It seems you've been sticking to your workout routine lately. Your muscles are much firmer, and you've lost a bit of weight."

"If we persevere for a few more months, we should see very noticeable results, and by then we should be able to control the Ink Dragon Mech."

Sentomaru smiled憨厚ly and pushed the food cart in. The three-tiered food cart was piled high with delicious food.

He pushed the food cart to the table, sat down in a chair, and said, "Doctor, after watching Kaido's battle with the Marine Admiral last time, I feel my defense is inadequate. I've been thinking about it these past few days..."

"I asked Dr. Pepperpunk yesterday about how to get the strongest defense, and I came up with a good idea."

Sentomaru's eyes were filled with intense excitement, it was almost frightening.

at this time.

Although Hill ate his food slowly and elegantly, he swallowed fist-sized pieces of food in one gulp.

This caused him to eat very quickly.
