"Oh! It's the Navy's supernova, Roy Amos—this highly anticipated player seemed to have chosen to observe the situation first, but now he's finally deciding to break through this 'Sea Beast Barrier'!?"
As the camera zoomed in, the commentator's voice rose sharply, as he began to promote the show in hopes of boosting ratings and getting a raise.
His voice resounded throughout the world in places where military exercises were being broadcast live.
To be fair...
Although before the start of the three-army exercise, Roy had already gained fame for being "a disciple of a former admiral" and "fighting to a draw with a Shichibukai".
But in the end, Roy was still young and had been relatively unknown before.
Therefore, there has always been a prevailing view on the high seas that Roy may never have fought to a draw with the Seven Warlords of the Sea, but the World Government was just using the name of the Seven Warlords of the Sea to enhance his reputation.
Even commentators from the World Economic News Agency might have some doubts.
but...
"It's said that Major Roy's Hadouken is a technique he created himself, a style that even former Admiral Black Arm Zephyr praised highly, and it has three different types... Hiss!"
Accompanied by the commentator's cry of pain as he bit his tongue.
"Whoosh!"
In the mess hall of a naval branch on a certain island, the cook accidentally spilled soup on the marine in front of him.
The Marine didn't even feel any pain at first; he just stared wide-eyed at the images projected by the live Den Den Mushi.
"Smack!" *N
In countless taverns, the glasses of patrons who were excitedly betting on who would be the first to reach the island fell to the ground.
Similar situations are occurring in countries around the world where people are watching the live stream.
Because at that moment, everyone clearly saw it.
Above the screen is the overhead view projected by the live Den Den Mushi.
A huge high-speed passage appeared on the sea surface that was occupied by sea monsters.
Near the island, the high-speed road is engulfed in scorching flames, transforming into a vast, crimson sea.
"Glug." "Glug."
The scorching temperature distorted the air, and the numerous carcasses of the sea monsters emitted the aroma of roasted meat.
On the other side of the highway, near the coast, lies a frosty, icy surface.
"sieve!""!"
Under the howling of the biting cold wind, the sea creatures were frozen on the surface of the sea.
Strong waves swept across the entire ocean.
And at the end of this enormous passage, where no sea creatures dwell anymore.
The young figure, bearing the weight of justice, slowly withdrew his fist.
This scene will surely be unforgettable for everyone who watched this military exercise.
"Oh~"
At this moment, even Admiral Kizaru, who was sitting on a distant naval platform, couldn't help but speak up.
"I'd heard about it before, but I can't believe they actually did it! It's terrifying how young people these days are!"
He pulled up his yellow sunglasses and made a slightly greasy clicking sound.
"This power—this appearance is almost like the Buddha Impact of the Warring States Period Marshal!"
But the surprise in that voice was undeniable.
"Hadouken" (or "Hadoken").
Akainu said in a deep voice, "I've heard that he defeated Hanafuda with this move, but I don't know how powerful it is..."
His words contained some doubt, but also a hint of admiration.
For someone who upholds absolute justice and believes that "piracy is evil," Roy's decisive action against Hanafuda and the strength he has displayed at this moment are undoubtedly worthy of recognition.
"Well..."
Meanwhile, Aokiji scratched his face and said, "Indeed—although I heard that his fist technique incorporates Instructor Zephyr's Black Body Style, the Fish-Man Karate, and the Foxfire Style from Wano Country, even so... its power is still astonishing."
At this point, he seemed to remember something: "Come to think of it, I think I saw him in the detention center before—but I didn't realize he was this strong back then."
At this point, he turned to the three veterans behind him: "Gentlemen, is he really not a power user?"
However, at this moment, Garp was clearly not listening to what Aokiji was saying. He just laughed and patted Zephyr on the shoulder: "Hahahaha! What an amazing young man! You've struck gold! How about you let this kid have me? I'll let you teach my grandson, you can train him however you like!"
Zephyr: "Old man... are your wounds itching? Want to get beaten up again?"
The only one who answered Aokiji's question was Tsuru: "All participants were confirmed by Seastone before the competition."
After hearing the crane's answer, Aokiji nodded and did not ask any further questions.
Because he actually knew that Roy was unlikely to be a power user.
To deliver that punch, one would need a Devil Fruit ability that simultaneously possesses the power of waves, fire, and ice, and also require an extremely resilient physique.
Such a fruit cannot exist, and even if it did, the body would undergo changes upon using it.
But everyone present could see clearly that neither elemental transformation, beast transformation, nor the physical changes unique to Paramecia-types appeared on Roy.
He has no characteristics whatsoever of being able to use his abilities.
Therefore, compared to Devil Fruit abilities, "special talent" is a more reasonable explanation.
"Professor Zephyr, could you perhaps allow this junior brother to have a chat with me sometime?"
Aokiji unusually took the initiative to say, "I'm somewhat interested in his style of boxing."
He didn't have the chance to learn Zephyr's Black Body Style, but if he could learn this Hadouken, combined with his Ice-Ice Fruit and Garp's Iron Fist, even for someone whose strength had already reached the pinnacle of the sea, it was a possibility worth trying.
"I wouldn't dare agree to such a thing for him—go ask him yourself."
Ze Law stood up with a smile.
"Oh, where are you going?"
Kizaru, who was standing to the side, asked with a grin, "Aren't you going to witness your disciple's arrival on the island?"
"No need—this test won't hold that kid back."
Zefa said calmly.
But almost no one knew the surprise and pride that lay beneath his calm at that moment.
What I'm proud of is, of course, the excellence of my students.
The surprising part is...
"How did this kid's Hadouken get so much stronger again?"
He was certain that while Roy's previous Hadouken was also terrifying, its maximum power output was definitely not this exaggerated in range and force.
In such a short time, he has become stronger again.
In addition, there's the "Flowing Sakura" skill that Roy has previously displayed, and his physique that's constantly getting stronger every day...
"Could his mastery of the Black Body Flow technique be this effective?"
Zefa could only attribute everything to this one thing: in his memory, Roy began to grow stronger at an exaggerated speed after practicing the Black Body Stream.
Of course, none of this matters.
The important thing is, after seeing the power that Roy is displaying at this moment.
Zefa had also made some decisions in his heart.
"I'm going to discuss some matters with the Warring States period."
Zefa said this, and then got up from his seat.
'
After seeing Zephyr leave, Kizaru and Aokiji were a little curious, but they didn't ask any further questions.
Instead, they turned their attention back to Garp's expression.
"On another note, Vice Admiral Garp~"
Kizaru asked softly, "Those injuries on your body... they're really terrifying... were they really done by that 'Twelve Constellations'?"
To be honest, Garp's injuries have almost fully healed, and he's hardly scary at all.
But what Kizaru was referring to was clearly not the injury itself, but the person who could have injured Garp.
"Hahaha! That guy... the intelligence department suspects his name is 'Boar'."
Garp, completely unconcerned about his injuries, just laughed and said, "He's quite a good kid, his abilities are troublesome."
"It's not just him."
At this moment, the crane spoke again.
A serious look flashed in the Chief of Staff's eyes: "The members of the Twelve Constellations all seem to be very troublesome."
"That's precisely why...this military exercise is so important."
Her gaze fell on Zephyr, who was climbing the stairs to the top floor, then on Lieutenant General Bilos not far away, and then on the figure in the distance.
"Justice on this sea needs new strength and support!"
At the same time...
"Phew...that feels good!"
Roy, who had swept away the sea monsters on the surface of the sea with a single punch, let out a breath.
He looked at Smoker: "How is it?"
Smoker:
'
'
How is it?
What else can we do?
He was one of the people who knew Roy best, and had fought Roy's Hadouken more than once before. He had also heard a lot of recent rumors about Roy.
But no matter how you look at it—this punch at this moment was completely beyond his comprehension.
It was only at this moment that Smoker realized that what Roy had said before they set off was no joke—he was now terrifyingly strong.
"you..."
Smoker spoke in a hoarse voice, as if trying to say something.
but...
"We'll talk about that later—don't forget our bet!"
At that moment, Roy raised his hand to interrupt him.
A bet?
Smoker was taken aback by what he heard and subconsciously looked at Island Seven behind him.
Then he realized—although Roy had just successfully dealt with all the sea monsters along the way with a single punch.
But at this moment, other sea creatures were still swimming over from the vicinity.
Although they were all trembling with fear and clearly unwilling, the passage that Roy had just created was still disappearing rapidly.
Only then did Smoker realize the meaning behind Roy's words.
"A bet? What are you trying to do..."
But he hadn't finished speaking.
The next moment...
"call!"
As a smoke person, he clearly sensed the changes around him.
That is...
"wind!?"
Smoker looked out at the distant sea—how could there be such a strong wind?
But soon after, he realized the reason.
His gaze suddenly fell on the path that Roy had blasted open.
At the beginning of the pathway, there is a lack of gas produced by ice.
At the end of the passage, there was the heat generated by the flames.
"Lack of heat creates a temperature difference, and this temperature difference generates airflow!"
As he murmured to himself, Roy silently replaced his fruit.
[Rock-Oath Fruit → Dragon-Dragon Fruit - Wind God Pteranodon Form LV4]
[Queen of the Winds Form LV4: Can use the wind generated by its wings to launch slashing attacks, and its body can move at supersonic speeds using the generated wind.]
And then the next moment...
"Moonwalk - Wind Chaser!"
"boom!"
Before Smoker, Roy shot out at an exaggerated speed, almost like a bolt of lightning.
The wind-breaking sound generated by Cheng's exaggerated speed was so sharp and piercing that it was almost ear-piercing.
And then Smoker turned his head in disbelief.
Then they saw Roy's figure had already crossed the constantly re-gathering sea beasts and passed through the passage in an instant.
"clatter!"
His figure landed on the artificial island where the Prime Minister had written the number 7.
As a result, everyone present, who hadn't even had a chance to react yet, fell silent once again.
Then...
"The first player to land on the island has appeared—it's incredibly fast!"
"While the fastest Vice Admiral in Gion had only gone halfway, the Navy's supernova, Lieutenant Commander Roy Amos, had already successfully landed on the island... Ouch! My tongue's here again!"
And then the commentator announced it in a trembling voice.
The clamor of exclamations finally broke out.
