Big brother, I want to become the strongest pirate in the world!

“Kazan, if he were to catch up… in our current state…”

"He can't catch up. Even if he pedals that bicycle to pieces, he still can't catch up."

Jinbe glanced at Kazan beside him, puzzled. If they were only using this single-masted ship, it would be a little difficult to get rid of him.

"Xiao Feng, turn on the steering wheel."

"Ah."

"Xiao Bei, keep the rudder steady, I'm going to activate the Fusion Accelerator."

"yes, Sir!"

"Monet, wake up that little girl Perona and tell her to keep an eye on the weather and directions."

"it is good."

After explaining everything, Kazan immediately removed all the bandages from his body. Kazan had previously used the residual blood energy from the battle to release a small amount of 'Death Resistance'. Although his injuries had not fully healed, he was no longer bleeding, and a thin scab had formed on the surface of his wounds.

He'll be using the Iron-Steel Fruit's power to heat and melt iron later, so this bandage will just burn to ashes instantly and become useless.

Kazan glanced again at the guy still standing and watching on the island. He didn't seem to have any intention of chasing after him. But regardless of whether he did or not, Kazan wouldn't take the risk and left at full speed.

Jinbe, standing behind him, watched the ice-wielding guy with unease. He couldn't forget the guy's terrifying strength, which was utterly despair-inducing. Even though they were at sea, the guy was still overwhelming them.

Jinbe hesitated for a moment, then decided not to send his fishman underlings to inform Tiger. Since Kazan had said it was fine, Jinbe trusted him.

About ten seconds later.

Jinbe noticed that the Caroso's hull vibrated slightly, and then a large hole appeared in the steel part at the stern, through which a device resembling a cannon barrel protruded. The temperature inside the cannon barrel was constantly rising, as if something was about to burst out.

Two seconds later, the cannon barrel pushed outwards and then retracted inwards, before bursting forth with an extremely hot flame.

At the same time, Caroso suddenly gained a huge propulsion force, and the entire ship sped across the sea at a speed that was no less than that of the fish-men race when they sailed in the sea.

They continued driving like this for nearly seven or eight minutes before the 'Melting Accelerator' finally stopped. By then, the small island had long since disappeared from sight, and the figure riding the bicycle and looking around was, of course, nowhere to be seen.

During this time, Bellamy, under Perona's command, turned the boat around several times to ensure that the lazy man playing on the ice couldn't catch up.

"Phew... The consumption is too great. Almost half of my metal materials were melted down to accelerate the process, leaving only some precious materials that I am reluctant to part with."

At this moment, Kazan climbed out of the stairs leading to the bottom of the ship. His whole body was bright red, as if he had been soaked in lava. For a moment, Jinbe did not dare to approach him. It was not until after a while, when the temperature of Kazan's body slowly dropped, that he came closer.

At the same time, Aladdin came over with a new roll of bandages and re-bandaged Kazan. The movement on the ground was too much, and the wound that had just scabbed over reopened. But that was a minor problem; the real problem was that Aokiji caught up with him.

"It seems there are no problems. Your ship is truly amazing."

"Haha, this is the part of my ship I'm most proud of!"

This was Kazan's first test of 'Melting Acceleration', and the effect was quite good. Although it couldn't match the Sunny's 'Wind Blast', it was superior in terms of durability!

Carroso is a boy, so it's always better if it lasts longer!

Chapter 075 Physical Examination

On the small island we just visited.

"Well... that red-eyed one... I think his name is Kazan, one of the Seven Warlords that the Admiral Sengoku was planning to recruit."

"If it involves Nico Robin and Fisher Tiger... well... that's something the World Government should be worried about. Admiral Sengoku will probably turn a blind eye."

"Ugh... this is troublesome. By the way, the name Kazan... did Saul mention it before? I forgot... oh well, I'll ask him if I run into him."

Aokiji rubbed his curly fur, looked around at the boundless sea, and then casually pointed in a direction: "Let's do it here then."

Soon, a bicycle slowly made its way across the sea in a certain direction.

……

January has passed, and after a long, winding journey, the Monster Pirates and the Sun Pirates can now see the Red Line.

"Everyone come here! It's a routine physical exam today!"

"Our Sun Pirates crew also need physical examinations!"

Kazan let out a howl on the ship, and then his underlings all ran over. Tiger, seeing this, naturally couldn't be outdone, and also let out a howl.

"Humph!"

Kazan glanced at Tiger with disdain, met his gaze, and then led his underlings into the training room on the second basement level.

This physical examination is, of course, a very serious matter.

At most, he's just a frivolous person.

"One at a time, Xiao Feng, you go first."

"I was ready long ago!"

Kazan stood there with his arms crossed, fully activating his Iron Man form and Armament Haki, letting Bon Clay kick at him.

Bang!

A loud bang echoed through the training room, causing Perona and Sugar to instinctively cover their ears and shrink back into Robin and Monet's arms, respectively.

Strength has increased slightly, but is still at Lv.4 level. Agility has improved significantly, probably due to the considerable training he received during the sparring with the Sun Pirates over the past few months, reaching Lv.5, which is about the average level of 'Paradise'. Armament Haki is also about to break through to Lv.2. Stamina, Devil Fruit ability, and Observation Haki cannot be accurately measured in the short term, so they will not be tested for now.

"Your agility has improved significantly, and your Armament Haki has also increased considerably. Keep up the good work, or Little Beck will catch up with you."

"Hmph! I've put all my effort into developing my fruit's abilities!"

Kazan rolled his eyes at Bon Clay, not caring whether it was true or not, and too lazy to argue with him: "Little Beckham, come here."

"yes, Sir!"

Bang!

Bellamy gritted his teeth as he threw a punch. Weapons weren't allowed during the 'body check,' and he had just punched Kazan's hard flesh with his bare hands, so it must have hurt quite a bit.

Strength Lv.4, Agility Lv.3, Stamina unknown, Armament Haki has begun to show some momentum and could be activated at any time.

"Little Beckham, strength is important, but don't neglect speed, or you'll suffer a great loss later, especially when your Armament Haki level is still not high."

Kazan patiently squeezed Bellamy's increasingly swollen biceps, feeling a slight headache. If this continued, wouldn't he become as 'brittle' as him?

"Monet."

"Ah."

Almost as soon as Kazan finished speaking, Monet kicked him in the butt.

I really don't know if this little girl did it on purpose.

Kazan glanced at Monet, who was smirking, and shook his head helplessly. Perhaps it was because he was too good to these younger sisters that these little girls were so mischievous towards him, showing no respect for their older brother whatsoever.

"Your strength and agility haven't improved, and you still haven't mastered Armament Haki! Monet, you're the slowest progressing in terms of strength!"

"Hmph! I don't want to fight with them every day! Besides, my Observation Haki is already very powerful, and I'm working hard to learn what my brother called 'early elementalization'!"

"Oh, then Monet is really amazing. If you can master this move, even your brother will have a headache."

Kazan glanced at Monet, who was pouting as she approached from the air. What he said was indeed true. To deal with an enemy who could 'become an elementalist in advance,' one not only needed to have Observation Haki at least at the same level as the enemy, but also needed to be able to keep up with the perception of Observation Haki.

However, once she looked at Kazan, she couldn't take her eyes off him. Monet seemed to have expected this, letting Kazan stare at her and 'examine her body'.

"Monet... is developing so well, and he's only fifteen."

Kazan nodded with satisfaction. His "papaya milk" cultivation method since childhood had been very effective. Now that it was winter, Monet often wrapped herself up very tightly, so her figure was not visible. However, after entering the meditation room, she directly took off her thick coat, revealing a rather tight-fitting shirt underneath.

In short: She has a curvaceous figure, not quite a "perfect" figure, but she already looks very impressive among girls her age, and is very close to the figure she would have had at thirty.

Indeed, nutrition in childhood is absolutely essential. Monet was originally supposed to join the Don Quixote family at the age of seventeen, when she would begin to improve her diet, but by then she would have already passed the optimal period for physical growth.

However, the fact that she still had such a beautiful figure even though she started supplementing her nutrition so late shows how high Monet's potential for physical development was.

"Brother~ Your eyes are so lecherous~"

At this moment, Monet had already grabbed his coat and wrapped himself up again, his face showing undisguised pride, and he glanced at Robin beside him.

Monet is getting better and better at it now. He knows he can't give his brother too much at once, and he has to take it step by step, with a good balance between tension and relaxation. He thinks he's doing a great job of it.

"Robin, you're the only one left."

"Okay brother."

This was Robin's first 'physical examination' since returning to her family, but the clever and quick-witted girl probably already knew what to do.

But just as Robin gritted her teeth, preparing to deliver a powerful punch, Kazan gently grasped her small hand.

"Idiot, you hardly need to fight in close combat during the battle. The others need to use physical skills, which is why I let them test their skills in close combat. As for Robin, you can just use your Devil Fruit ability. What I want to see is the limit of your Devil Fruit ability."

"...Hmm~"

Robin felt the careful way Kazan held her hand, knowing that she had received a little bit of favoritism, so she was very happy and couldn't help but smile. She didn't even care about the provocative look Monet had given her earlier.

Her figure is indeed a little worse than Monet's, but that's because she hasn't eaten as well as Monet these past few years! And she's often been exposed to the elements, so her skin isn't particularly good either. But it's still early. She's a few months younger than Monet, and Robin is confident that she'll grow up and develop even better than Monet!

At Kazan's request, Robin underwent a combat test with the Flower Flower Fruit. Ultimately, Kazan concluded that physical skills were unnecessary, but Robin's physical abilities had to be improved, otherwise the Flower Flower Fruit would become her weakness in the future.

"As for you two little things... come here and let your brother take a look."

Kazan had no need for combat power from the two little girls who were not even ten years old; he cared more about whether the two little girls were developing healthily.

"A lewd inspection!"

"Quack, you're naughty!"

"Hey! Don't say things that could cause misunderstandings! Your second sister's gaze towards me is weird!"

Chapter 076 Encounter with Kuzan

"Hmm~ Eeya~"

"Perona! Don't shout!"

"Ugh...it's itchy..."

The physical examination continued, and this time it was a real physical examination. In his previous life, his master was too busy to keep an eye on his physical development, so he taught him a set of techniques for checking the condition of his muscles, so that Kazan could check his body from time to time.

This technique only works on young children, so Kazan often used it to examine Perona and Sugar. He also used it on Robin before he left Ohara. However, now that Robin has grown up, this method can no longer be used.

At this moment, Kazan would occasionally pinch Perona's biceps and leg muscles, and then measure her height and weight to complete one round of examination.

"Hmm... Little Perona actually has some potential?!"
