Transmigrating into One Piece: The Peerless King

"What? I'm more useless than everyone else?"

"Boy, I haven't even settled accounts with you yet, how dare you provoke me?"

Gulant was furious when he heard Zhao Hai's slanderous words.

He, Grand, was a super genius in the Navy, even though he was ambushed and defeated by Zhao Hai last time (at least that's what Grand thought in his heart).

But now Zhao Hai actually said that he was not even as good as the ordinary students in these elite classes, which deeply hurt Gulant.

"Isn't that so?"

"Do you think you're so great just because you've practiced the Six Styles of the Navy for a few years? Do you think you can hold your head high in front of these cadets and act like you're so awesome?"

Zhao Hai remained unmoved by Gulant's angry expression and said calmly.

After a while, Zhao Hai saw that Koby, Gary, Zepa and other trainees were all looking at him, and felt that the atmosphere had been set up enough.

So they added an emotional reading effect, saying, "If that's really what you think, then you're truly pathetic! You've practiced the Six Styles of the Navy for so many years, but none of us here have even touched the Six Styles, let alone trained in it..."

"But now you're bringing out these things and thinking you're superior? How utterly ignorant and foolish!"

Who in this world truly believes, from the bottom of their heart, that they are inherently inferior to others?

Zhao Hai's words resonated deeply with most of the trainees present.

Zepa, who had been indifferent to everything, raised an eyebrow and showed a hint of interest after hearing Zhao Hai's words. As he left, he deliberately passed by Zhao Hai and casually remarked, "You're quite good, and very strong!"

Upon hearing someone praise him, Zhao Hai instinctively replied, "That goes without saying, my strength is quite formidable."

Zhao Hai was just about to see which kid had such a promising future when he realized that the kid was already over a hundred meters away. In the end, Zhao Hai could only shake his head with regret.

Zhao Hai was immersed in the melancholy of being praised, while not far away, Grand was truly engulfed in endless rage. Grand pointed a trembling right finger at Zhao Hai, who was blaming him, but Zhao Hai remained calm, looking as if he were the embodiment of justice.

What angered Gurant even more was that the kid had actually spaced out while criticizing him—yes, spaced out! And he had spaced out in front of dozens of students.

"Caribbean Sea! Stop spouting nonsense here. My talent has been unanimously recognized by the entire Marine Headquarters!"

Finally, Gulant could no longer tolerate Zhao Hai's disregard and shouted angrily.

Although Gurant believed he could defeat Zhao Hai if he used his full strength, he was still a little unsure.

The reason he is only scolding Zhao Hai without making a move is that he is not sure of Zhao Hai's exact strength.

Furthermore, Zhao Hai's unpredictable speed made him wary, so although Gulant was not afraid of Zhao Hai.

But he didn't want to be ambushed and knocked down by Zhao Hai before he could even unleash his full potential; that would be a huge loss of face.

"I will definitely work hard to master the Shave technique from the Six Styles of the Navy. Once I increase my speed, let's see how you Caribbean Sea will still be arrogant in front of me!"

Gulant secretly resolved to cultivate the Shave technique to a higher level.

Moreover, he was very confident that Zhao Hai could never surpass him in the progress of mastering the Six Styles of the Navy.

"Oh, I see. I'll head back now. You two can continue your conversation."

At this moment, Zhao Hai's mind was not on Grand at all, but on Zepa, the two-sword style boy who had just passed by him.

Chapter Forty-Six: The Mystery of the Little Dark Room

Just now, when Zepa passed by him, the system Xiao Jin told him that this kid named Zepa had the strength of a naval captain.

What does the rank of "Navy Captain" mean?

"Those aren't some back-door appointments in the navy. The King System determines that they're all clearly distinguished based on combat strength."

"A naval captain is an achievement that only the best of the previous generation of naval officers could attain. Maybe this kid Zepa has already awakened Haki, and the possibility of that is definitely not low."

Lost in thought, Zhao Hai left without even realizing it.

Seeing Zhao Hai leave on his own, Gulant and the other students were dumbfounded.

……

……

Time flies, and a month later, after a period of training, the elite class faced their first assessment at the Naval Academy.

"Humph……"

"what……"

On the training field, the new naval cadets were sweating profusely with great enthusiasm.

Everyone is making preparations for the exam so that they can pass smoothly.

Looking at the training of the new naval personnel around him, Zhao Hai couldn't muster any enthusiasm. He wasn't worried about the assessment at all, and just did push-ups one after another out of boredom.

Zhao Hai originally wanted to practice the Navy's Six Styles, which sounded very powerful, but he was stopped by the system Xiao Jin as soon as he started practicing. Xiao Jin said that instead of properly cultivating the supreme techniques of the Seven Transformations of Heaven and the Four Symbols Immortal Body, he was messing around with some trashy Six Styles.

Zhao Hai originally wanted to refute this, because from the current perspective, he did not think that the Fish Leap Transformation Technique was stronger than the Navy's Six Styles, and the White Tiger Body Technique had not been very useful so far.

But considering that these were the words of such a magical and wondrous thing as the King System, Zhao Hai was still quite certain.

After all, the saying "Believe in the system, and you will have eternal life" has been proven by countless characters in novels.

Zhao Hai doesn't demand that he have the formidable ability of immortality; his biggest dream right now is simply to roam the pirate world freely.

Thinking about how Garp used his strength to bully him, Zhao Hai really wanted to increase his strength so he could bully Garp in return.

So now he is doing exactly what the system Xiao Jin has arranged, building a foundation, building a foundation, and building a foundation continuously!

To put it bluntly, it's about doing push-ups, sit-ups, and barbell exercises every day, alternating between them.

Not far away, Gary, tired from practicing the Six Styles of the Navy, came to Zhao Hai's side and asked with some confusion, "Brother Hai, I see you doing push-ups here every day, but I haven't seen you practicing the Six Styles of the Navy taught by Master Chaton."

Gary knew that although Zhao Hai was very powerful and might have the strength of a naval lieutenant, he had heard that even a high-ranking figure like a naval admiral was practicing the Six Styles of Naval Body Technique.

He really couldn't understand why Zhao Hai would give up practicing such a powerful physical technique as the Navy's Six Styles.

Hearing Gary's question, Zhao Hai did not answer immediately, but instead increased the frequency of his push-ups.

"Huh...huh..."

As the frequency increased, even Zhao Hai's powerful body became somewhat unstable.

"call……"

After doing dozens of push-ups at a high frequency, Zhao Hai stopped and took a deep breath of the fresh morning air.

"I finally finished my 1,000 push-ups this morning."

Zhao Hai sighed for a moment, then said to Gary in a low voice, "The Six Styles of the Navy also develops abilities from the body, and doing push-ups here is also developing physical abilities. However, the Six Styles of the Navy is just a special enhancement of a certain aspect of the human body. They all lead to the same goal through different paths."

Zhao Hai essentially copied and pasted what the system Xiao Jin had told him.

"Oh!" Gary nodded, seemingly understanding but not quite.

Although Gary didn't fully understand Zhao Hai's words, he could clearly sense that Zhao Hai wasn't spouting nonsense as usual this time, and that what he said made a lot of sense.

After listening to Zhao Hai's words, Gary seemed to have a sudden realization, but upon closer reflection, he felt as if a thick barrier was blocking his way.

……

"Clang—Clang—"

Just as Gary was deep in thought, and Zhao Hai was looking at Gary with a 'teachable' expression, a series of bells rang out.

Then, Zhao Hai saw that the new naval recruits around him stopped training and started running in the same direction.

"Excuse me, what happened?"

Zhao Hai casually stopped a male classmate whose name he couldn't recall and asked him in a friendly manner.

"overtake……"

This male student was so ungrateful that he dared to stop him, a genius from the elite naval class, at this critical moment.

The male student was about to teach this clueless kid a lesson, but when he turned around and saw Zhao Hai's smiling face, he instinctively shivered and swallowed back the curse he was about to utter.

Although this male student had never seen Zhao Hai make a move, he was still amazed that Zhao Hai dared to ridicule the super genius, Gulant, especially since Gulant hadn't uttered a single word from beginning to end.

Therefore, he had every reason to believe that this Caribbean Sea was definitely not much weaker than Glent, and might even be stronger!

In order not to offend Zhao Hai, the male student immediately changed his expression and said with a fawning look, "I'm rushing to participate in the monthly assessment for naval freshmen. If Brother Hai has any requests, I'd be happy to serve you."

"Not bad, you have a very high level of ideological awareness!"

Seeing that the young man was so compliant, Zhao Hai did not refuse. After all, having a lackey to work for was not bad.

"Cough cough..."

Thinking of the imperial strategies depicted on TV, involving a combination of kindness and severity, Zhao Hai coughed slightly and said, "What's your name? From now on, you're one of my Caribbean people?"

"My name is Onynn Gerrard, and I will bow down to Brother Hai with all my heart."

Upon hearing that Zhao Hai had actually agreed to take him in as a lad, the male student was overjoyed and immediately pledged his loyalty to Zhao Hai.

As Zhao Hai listened to Ade rattle off a long list of names, he regretted asking for the names.

However, in order to maintain the eldest brother's concern for his subordinates and to test his imperial skills, he still said in a friendly manner, "Oni... Rad, I'll call you Rad from now on! It sounds more intimate that way."

If Ade knew that Zhao Hai was calling him that because he couldn't remember his name at all, I wonder what he would think.

"Alright, Ade, take us to Teacher Chatun!" Having taken in a follower, Zhao Hai didn't want to waste any resources, so he immediately instructed Ade to lead the way.

Gary, standing to the side, was completely unaware that Zhao Hai had already taken on a subordinate.

Still lost in thought about Zhao Hai's words, he didn't even come to his senses when Zhao Hai pulled him away, and just followed behind Zhao Hai and the others blankly.

Because Zhao Hai and his classmates were in the elite class, they were not tested on strength or speed like ordinary new naval students.

Instead, they were specially summoned by Teacher Chatun to an indoor training hall, where they were told to line up outside and then be taken one by one to a small, dark room at the very back for assessment.

"First one, Coby!"

Soon, the familiar voice of Teacher Chaton rang out from the small dark room.

"Oh!"

Then Koby was locked in a small dark room.

"Ahhhhhh..."

Then, Koby's incredibly desolate voice could be heard coming from the dark room.

Hearing Koby's unusual voice, the elite students around him all showed deep fear on their faces.
