Transmigrating into One Piece: The Peerless King

Based on Zhao Hai's understanding of Garp, Garp should have simply gone up and taken down these thugs with two or three punches; that would have been his style.

Besides, given how big of a trouble he caused, it was impossible for him not to learn about the three bullies' usual misdeeds from other people.

"Forget it! I've had enough of playing with them. Why bother with trashy characters?"

"If Garp won't take action, I'll just handle it myself. Besides, it's nothing worth mentioning."

Zhao Hai shook his head, no longer thinking about why Garp hadn't made a move, but instead looked with interest at the three thugs blocking his way with sinister smiles.

"What are you laughing at! And with that sinister smile, do you think you three pieces of trash can easily crush me? You're really giving me that weird confidence!"

Looking at the three bullies' sinister smiles, which seemed to indicate they had everything under control, Zhao Hai couldn't help but feel speechless.

"Kid! You still dare to put on that face in front of me? You still haven't learned your lesson? Then just die!"

Chapter Twenty-Four: Uncontrollable Force

The burly man was furious when he saw that Zhao Hai still dared to look at them with a playful smile. He raised his fist to hit Zhao Hai.

Seeing the burly man's snail-like punching speed, Zhao Hai couldn't muster any seriousness and didn't even use the Fish Leap Transformation movement technique.

With just a slow, slight sway of his body, he easily dodged the burly man's seemingly fierce fist.

"Wake up, wake up my ass! You're such a damn noisy bastard!"

Zhao Hai couldn't stand these trashy people's confident remarks and cursed loudly.

He then threw a punch at the neck of the burly man charging towards him.

"what!"

"Click... snap..."

Then, the two figures crossed paths in an instant, followed by a mournful scream and the crisp sound of bones breaking.

"Plop... thud..."

The burly man fell straight down under the incredulous gaze of the other two tyrants, his eyes wide open, dying with his eyes wide open, not knowing how he died until the very end.

"A master... this is truly a master..."

The other two burly men were completely terrified, their bodies trembling uncontrollably, unable to even move a step. They just stared at Zhao Hai, who looked like a demon, with utter horror.

"Uh--"

Zhao Hai turned around and looked at the two burly men's trembling appearance, somewhat taken aback. He thought to himself, "Damn it, where did that invincible arrogance go? Who are they trying to fool with that terrified look on their faces?"

"Alas! I hope you will be good people in your next life. Although I have no deep-seated hatred for you, you still regard me as a major threat!"

"I don't get involved in karma, yet karma is the one that's affecting me!"

"So die! Atone for those you deceived, humiliated, and killed!"

As he spoke, Zhao Hai muttered some compassionate Buddhist sayings.

Although his words were full of Buddhist teachings, Zhao Hai's swift and decisive movements did not reflect the profound Buddhist concept of universal salvation at all.

Actually, Zhao Hai didn't say those things just to show off; he said them intentionally so that someone in the restaurant could hear.

Otherwise, if someone thinks he's a ruthless killer, how can he smoothly join the Navy Headquarters?

"This matter is finally completed, and the trash blocking the way has been cleared away. Now all that's left is to find a ship to reach my destination—Marineford Island, the Marine Headquarters."

Zhao Hai kicked the three corpses beside him aside and clapped his hands.

"Xiao Jin, isn't it said that you'll feel guilty about killing someone for the first time?"

Why do I feel strangely calm after killing someone?

Zhao Hai suddenly remembered that the books in his original world all said that one would feel fear when killing for the first time, so he asked the system Xiao Jin curiously.

"Those who activate the hot-blooded gene are born to fight, and are crazy about fighting, so how could they have fear? Besides, you only killed people who deserved to die, you idiot!"

Uh--

Zhao Hai was somewhat taken aback when he first heard that the system, Xiao Jin, had such a human-like side.

However, the shock was brief, and he quickly recovered.

"Hahaha... It's good to be strong! But because I leveled up 10 levels directly with Straw Hat Luffy, I still can't control this power very well."

"Looks like I need to carefully manage my level. Even a hundred-story building starts from the bottom, otherwise there will definitely be a lot of problems later on."

Thinking back to how I had almost snapped that burly man's neck with a single, light punch, I remembered how I had just done it.

Even while the other two burly men tried their best to control their strength, they still managed to deeply indent the chests of the two men, prompting Zhao Hai to begin self-reflection.

……

……

Meanwhile, there's a restaurant behind the street where Zhao Hai lives.

Behind a window in a room on the second floor, at a table, two old men were leisurely drinking wine.

"I knew it! With your fiery temper, Garp, how could you let those three local bullies just go like that?"

"So you had this trick up your sleeve. But this doesn't seem like something a blockhead like you, Garp, would come up with, hahaha..."

The old chef who had just appeared in front of Zhao Hai was looking at Karp with a playful expression.

"Go and clean up those three corpses in the street!"

"Yes, Lieutenant General Garp!"

After giving instructions to the few naval soldiers guarding outside, Garp...

He said to the old chef with dissatisfaction, "What? I can't think of this? I'm not bragging, this is really my own idea. Come and see what that kid has come up with."

"Although I didn't understand any of that kid's nonsense about cause and effect, he's just my type."

"These thugs deserve to be killed, no mercy! If it were me, I would have killed them too! Hahaha..."

"You old codger, you're so old, yet you're still so impulsive, you're incorrigible, hahaha..."

"..."

……

At the town's harbor, looking at his small sailboat, Zhao Hai looked utterly helpless and frustrated.

They didn't even have the slightest interest in appreciating the unique scenery surrounding the town.

"Am I really going to sail across the ocean in such a small sailboat to Marineford, the naval headquarters on the perilous Grand Line?"

"Am I supposed to endure the agony of drifting aimlessly at sea all by myself?"

"What happened to my destiny and luck? Why isn't it working now that your mother needs you the most?"

Looking at the vast and boundless sea in the distance, and thinking back to the desolation of asking around the entire port but finding no ship heading to Marineford, Zhao Hai felt as if he had been abandoned by the world.

Going to the Navy Headquarters alone is something Zhao Hai dares not even think about right now.

The Marine Headquarters is located in the center of the Grand Line, and it's not easy for Luffy and his crew to travel with them. The system, Little Gold, even forced him to leave.

Without a navigator, and without a large enough ship equipped with seastone, how could they possibly sail on such a dangerous ocean, let alone reach the Grand Line?

He originally thought that he would meet Garp by chance and that Garp would take him to Marineford, the Marine Headquarters located in the center of the Grand Line. But to his surprise, Garp just ignored him and told him to go by himself.

"Sigh! Hopefully we'll encounter other ships heading to Marine Headquarters along the way, but the chances are too slim."

Finally, realizing that Lady Luck had indeed not smiled upon him this time, Zhao Hai had no choice but to hop on his small sailboat alone.

"Waaah... waaah..."

Just as Zhao Hai was about to resign himself to his fate and try his luck at sea alone, he suddenly spotted an enormous naval warship heading towards the town.

"A good opportunity. Judging from the facilities of this naval warship, it shouldn't be an ordinary warship. It should have Seastone. Who knows, it might be heading to the Grand Line?"

"My guide is none other than Vice Admiral Garp, a naval hero. How dare these people not let me board the ship?"

Seeing this, Zhao Hai didn't think much of it and rowed his small sailboat toward the naval warship.

"Hey, hey, hey... all you bystanders, get out of here and cool off. This is a key naval military area."

Just as Zhao Haigang approached the large ship, he saw naval soldiers on the warship shouting at him sternly.

"overtake!"

"How dare you act so arrogantly, you lowly soldier? I have the naval hero Garp backing me up. When I become a high-ranking officer in the Navy Headquarters, I will definitely teach you ignorant and arrogant naval soldiers a lesson."

Zhao Hai was annoyed by the arrogant navy on the ship. If a bunch of lowly soldiers without any backing were so cocky, how could he, someone with powerful backing, possibly show his might?

"what happened?"

"What kind of behavior is this, making such a racket here!"

Just as Zhao Hai was thinking about whether he should immediately bring out Garp to teach this soldier a lesson, a strong and powerful voice suddenly rang out.

"Reporting to Rear Admiral Sicily, there's a young man trying to approach our warship, and we are driving him away."

Then, Zhao Hai saw a man with a resolute face and two prominent mustaches craning his neck to look at him.

"Kid, what do you think you're doing? This is a naval warship, not a place for a brat like you to get close!"

After asking the reason, the Sicilian Major General immediately yelled at Zhao Hai at the top of his lungs.

"overtake!"

"What the hell is wrong with these navy guys today? Do you think I'd just come up to you for no reason? Do you think I'd just swagger over to you like this if I didn't have any powerful backers?"

Having been inexplicably scolded twice, Zhao Hai was extremely displeased.

However, due to his limited strength, he could only explain in a low voice, "I was introduced to the Marine Headquarters by Vice Admiral Garp, so when I saw this naval warship with headquarters personnel coming over, I came over."

"What? You're that kid with potential that Vice Admiral Garp mentioned in the Den Den Mushi!"

"Not so great, huh? You actually made me send my entire fleet to detour from a nearby town to pick you up. You've got some nerve, kid! You even had to have me, the Rear Admiral, come personally to pick you up!"

When Major General Sicily heard that Zhao Hai was the kid Lieutenant General Garp had sent to pick him up, he instantly lost his temper and vented his anger on Zhao Hai.

Because he dared not vent his frustrations in front of Garp, nor dared to disobey Lieutenant General Garp's orders, he could only direct his dissatisfaction at Zhao Hai.

"Uh--"
