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

Jinan took a breath of fresh air and slowly opened his eyelids.

Enjoy the tranquility after waking up.

During this short rest, Jinan felt refreshed and full of energy after a deep sleep.

But soon, his brows furrowed as he thought of the hasty phone call he received in the early hours of the morning.

Recalling the brief conversation on the phone, he couldn't help but sigh, feeling the time passing silently between his fingers.

"Is the incident in the West Sea going to happen again?"

He had no ill will towards those scholars of O'Hara, but Jin'an could not stop what was going to happen there.

"You even asked me if I had any intention of launching the Demon Slayer Order..."

He doesn't want to do this kind of thing. He is too lazy to get involved in the world government's mess.

But there were his "acquaintances" there.

As Jinan's thoughts wandered, the image of a 6-year-old girl appeared.

Nicole Robin.

The most important thing is that the headquarters asked him to take up his post in the G5 branch immediately.

The head of the G5 branch has retired, so Jinan was forced to take over.

At this point, a slightly teasing voice broke his contemplation:

"Yo, what big thing are you thinking about right after you got up?"

Roger stood at the door, chewing a piece of bread in his hand with a hint of relaxation.

Jin An stood by the window, his fingers unconsciously stroking the smooth surface of the window frame.

His gaze turned from the endless blue outside the window back into the room and landed on Roger.

"I'm wondering what you're going to do in the future."

Roger did not answer Jin An's straightforward question immediately. He paused for a moment, as if he was thinking, perhaps weighing the deeper meaning behind the question.

"It seems...what do you think of my future plans?"

Roger didn't wait for Jin'an to answer, and continued:

“My thoughts have changed a bit…”

"But I will still turn myself in to the Navy."

Jin An sighed, "Is there still no way to change Roger's mind?"

Roger walked towards Jinan.

Roger met Jin'an's eyes.

There was no evasion or hesitation in his eyes, only a serious look.

"Sometimes I feel like you're still too idealistic."

He had a blank expression on his face, but there was a hint of worry between his brows.

"Do you know the exact strength of the World Government?"

"Do you know the dirty things they do in secret?"

“If we don’t make this world chaotic, I believe that this world will never change.”

After he finished speaking, an uncontrollable fire burned in Roger's eyes.

"The people of the world have suffered from the Celestial Dragons for a long time, and from the World Government for a long time."

Jin An looked at Roger silently, his eyes fixed on the other person.

Jin An knew that he was powerless to shake the will of the man in front of him.

Just like a huge ship in the ocean, once it sets sail, it can't turn back.

Roger grinned.

"You can leave today..."

"I will go to the Marine Headquarters by myself later."

"I promised you another thing, and I will fulfill it when the time comes."

"As for this period of time, I will go meet those old friends."

Now he is free from worries.

Early yesterday morning, Jinan sent Lujiu to a place even Roger didn't know.

......

Sky island.

Arpaio, the Island of the Gods.

In a warmly decorated room.

The doctor sent by Ganfor is checking Lu Jiu's health:

"Ma'am, don't worry too much."

"Master Jin'an has entrusted you to our care, so you can rest assured."

She looked at the other person's expression and continued speaking.

"We have no shortage of resources here now. We have everything you need."

Lu Jiu had never encountered such a thing.

"You don't have to bother with that,"

“I can do all these things.”

The doctor responded with a smile, full of kind warmth.

“These are what I, as a doctor, should do.”

"You can go out more during this time. I'll go back first."

Lu Jiu saw the doctor out and bowed slightly to say goodbye. As the door slowly closed, she slowly turned around and stayed in the empty room.

She lowered her head and stroked her belly with her hand. In that gentle contact, she felt a new connection.

She said to herself in a soft voice, full of emotion: "From now on, you and I will be the only ones to keep each other company..."

"dong dong dong..."

Lu Jiu was a little curious. Who would come here at this time?

She had no acquaintances here to visit.

"Sister Lu Jiu, I'm Ginny, I'm here to give you something..."

A pink-haired girl was standing outside the door with a sweet smile on her face, and next to her was a red-haired boy.

"Sister Jinni, I have brought everything that Brother Jin An arranged."

"This is my first time here at Sky Island. It's completely different from the Kingdom of Solbe."

As he spoke, the door was opened directly.

"Welcome, Ginny and Shanks."

......

Mariejoia.

In the meeting hall of Huajian, the Five Elders sat together.

"According to the news from CP, Jin An seemed to have had a fight with someone in Paradise."

Saint Sartan knocked on the table where several photos were placed.

Due to the long shooting distance, only the moment when Jinan transformed into a blue dragon was captured.

"This guy does have some strength."

Nasu Shoulangsheng glanced at the blue dragon in the photo, and a thoughtful look flashed in his eyes.

"I remember this fruit was the prize for the last 'game'."

"Was it eaten by a navy? It feels a bit wasteful."

Massan nodded.

"This guy is really lucky. He went from being a slave to becoming a vice admiral of the navy."

The scene fell into silence for a moment. Saint Satan thought for a moment and said:

"This man's intentions are still shrouded in mystery, but his power is beyond doubt."

"List him as a candidate for investigation. After all, after he joined the Navy, the things he did were consistent with his status."

"Seconded!"

"Seconded!"

......

G5 base.

It is still in the same condition as when Jinan first came here, with broken walls and ruins everywhere.

Inside the base, Xiliu was patrolling around in his black coat.

He was very pleased with the place, it suited his character perfectly.

"Lieutenant General Jin An, I heard from the people at headquarters that this base is unique in the Grand Line."

Jinan thought for a moment.

“That’s actually true.”

"After all, there is only this one naval base in the second half of the Grand Line."

Jinan glanced at the buildings in the base. Many things here needed repair.

"Does this mean that the maintenance costs here will have to come out of my pocket? Is this what Zhan Guo and the others are planning?"

Xiliu took out a cigar from his pocket and lit it.

“I feel like restoring the building is secondary.”

"The most important thing is to replenish combat personnel."

Looking at the navy soldiers wrapped in gauze everywhere in the base, Jinan fell into thought.

"We can only transfer Enelu and the others here, and as for that kid Doflamingo, this place is tailor-made for him."
