One Piece: Start as a mythical beast, practice to become stronger

half a month later.

The waves gently lapped the side of the pirate ship, making a rhythm like drum beats.

On the deck, Jin An leaned against the sail.

The orange sunrise dyed the sea golden.

He was playing with the newspaper that had just been delivered by the news bird.

The news bird had already flown away with its cry.

A gust of sea breeze blew by, and the corners of the newspaper pages turned, as if eager to reveal the news inside.

Jin An finally turned his gaze to the damp paper. His eyes stayed on it for a moment, and then his eyes narrowed slightly.

"They're moving so fast that they've already reached the South China Sea."

The newspaper headlines clearly stated: Bondi Wilder arrived in the South China Sea.

At the same time as arriving, he directly declared war on many pirates in the South China Sea.

"The great pirates have a different spirit."

"It's unfair for him to go to Nanhai to play house."

Jinan's expression smiled slightly when he read the message.

The world-famous pirate suddenly went to the novice village in the South China Sea which was supervised by the navy.

I guess the pirates in the South China Sea are all turning green in the face now.

He could sense what kind of waves this news would stir up on the ocean.

As for how Bondi World will impact the order of the South China Sea and even affect the power structure of the entire pirate world, it depends on the other party's intentions.

As long as he didn't touch upon those things that he strictly prohibited, he would give Bondi World the greatest convenience.

He stood up slowly, and the wind blew his coat.

In his mind, Jinan has begun calculating the possibility and consequences of a conflict in the South China Sea, as well as how he and the navy should seize the opportunity in this future storm to weaken the world government's control over the South China Sea.

The other pirates on the ship also noticed the news bird that had flown away, and Jin'an's silence after reading the newspaper.

They gathered on the deck, cast their eyes on Crocodile, and waited for instructions.

"There is only one newspaper, and everything is in the hands of Lieutenant General Jin An."

"This news bird flies too fast. It doesn't even want to make money..."

"Looking at Lieutenant General Jin An's expression, something big must have happened."

The pirates were very interested in the contents of the newspaper, but they only dared to discuss it in a low voice.

"From the looks of you, the newspaper should have reported something that attracted you."

Crocodile exhaled a puff of smoke and took the newspaper from Jinan.

"So you let Bondi Wold go just to help you do this?"

"I remember you came from the South China Sea."

"You are still interfering in the affairs of the Four Seas after you arrive at the Navy Headquarters. Aren't you afraid that the Navy Headquarters will hold you accountable?"

Crocodile couldn't ignore the incident reported in the headlines even if he wanted to.

He knew that the ship he led and its crew members were currently tied to Jin'an.

"Otherwise, don't even think about fighting with me."

"Why don't you just join my pirate group? Aren't you comfortable being free and easy every day?"

He looked up into the distance, where the water and the sky were one color, and the waves were sparkling in the sun.

Jin An looked at Crocodile who was standing on the bow and showing off. The other party wanted to take advantage of him again.

"I am still the admiral of the South China Sea. You don't need to worry about the affairs of the South China Sea."

"Besides, I am a man of my word. I will definitely do what I promised you."

He wanted Crocodile to work for him in the future, but now he wants to go back on his word?

Jinan looked towards the not-so-distant horizon, where the discontinuous islands looked like scattered pearls.

And beyond those islands, the Kingdom of Alabasta is within reach.

"Speaking of which, we're about to arrive at the Kingdom of Alabasta." Jin'an's voice floated above the roar of the waves.

He turned his head, his eyes penetrating the veil of morning mist and meeting Crocodile's.

There was a hint of inquiry in Jinan's eyes.

"Are you sure you want to put the battle there?"

Crocodile tightened his stance, and his instantly alert eyes revealed his unquestionable sharpness.

"You won't regret it, will you?"

He spied on the other party's intentions and responded cautiously and firmly.

"You said it, I'll decide where the battle will take place."

Jin An retracted his gaze, "I'm just worried that you'll lose face."

"After all, you will need to stay in the Kingdom of Alabasta for a long time."

Crocodile's eyes were sharp. He was disdainful of what Jin An said, and there was a hint of contempt in his eyes.

After spending some time together, he can say this responsibly.

Under normal circumstances, he may not be a match for his opponent, but in the desert, he can beat the opponent and make him call him daddy.

"You should worry about yourself. I have never been afraid of anyone in the desert battle."

His contemptuous laughter was slightly hoarse in the sea breeze, but it was extremely clear, "You should prepare to quit the navy first."

His tone was full of sarcasm and disdain towards Jinan.

He emphasized again, "Don't embarrass yourself in front of the Navy."

Jinan just felt a little funny when facing Crocodile's provocation.

He had always acted too nonchalant in front of these pirates, causing them to become seriously inflated psychologically.

But this is good for him. The more inflated the other party is, the better.

"as long as you are happy..."

......

South China Sea.

When the pirates heard that the destination of this voyage was the South China Sea, many discordant voices emerged within the pirate group.

At the time, they thought the captain was joking.

When they really arrived in the South China Sea, they could no longer laugh.

"Captain, aren't we walking sideways in this sea?"

"No challenge at all."

"That's right! In this case, we might as well quit the pirate group."

Bondi World frowned. These discordant sounds pierced his ears like invisible blades, causing him to feel inexplicable pain.

Thinking back to the conversation with Jin An, the other party's warning seemed to have come true. His pirate group was indeed too chaotic.

At first, he dismissed Jin An's warning. After all, he personally selected each team member, so how could he easily question their loyalty and ability?

But now, the scene before him was telling him that the reality was far more serious than he had imagined.

"If you want to quit, you can leave now. I won't stop you."

"I will be staying in the South China Sea for a long time."

"Think about it for yourselves."

"..."

When Bondi World finished speaking, the ship fell into silence.

All the pirates looked at each other, filled with doubts.

They joined the ship in order to roam the sea freely under the protection of Bondi Wold, looking for their own treasure and victory.

But now, they have come to the South China Sea, and there is no adventure here.

Normally, they wouldn't even bother to take a look at the rotten fish and shrimp here.
