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

After Jinan and Garp left, Zhan Guo sat alone in the office and rubbed his forehead tiredly.

The atmosphere in the room finally quieted down, and he was the only one left facing the things on the table.

It was a gift that Jinan brought back specially. It was exquisite and small, and obviously carefully selected.

Zhan Guo looked at the gift with mixed feelings, and an unconscious smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

He knew in his heart that Jin An brought the gift with good intentions, wanting to ease the tense atmosphere, or even to show respect for him.

This made him feel a little relieved. Although Jin An was a little unreliable in some things, he was essentially a person who understood propriety and emotions.

However, Zhan Guo's mood was still heavy and he couldn't help but worry about the future.

This was not because he was worrying unfoundedly, but because he sensed a hidden danger based on his years of experience and keen intuition.

Jinan's recent behavior has been increasingly worrying him, especially in relation to the World Government.

The actions within the World Government have become more frequent recently, and they are no longer deliberately avoiding him, the Navy Admiral.

This situation made Zhan Guo feel inexplicably uneasy.

He looked at the sky outside the window, his thoughts gradually drifting away.

Although Jin'an's behavior this time did not cause any major disaster, Zhan Guo knew very well that such an incident would definitely leave a mark on the World Government.

The Five Elders may not have the time to deal with this matter for the time being, but in their hearts, Jin An's name has been quietly remembered.

"This kid..."

Zhan Guo sighed, feeling a sense of powerlessness rising in his heart.

He knew that Jin An was a man of extraordinary talent and ability, and such a person would always cause a stir on the sea.

However, that was why he was even more worried.

Jinan's character is destined to be unwilling to be ordinary. He is always jumping on the minefield, seemingly tireless, but every adventure intensifies the conflict between him and the World Government.

Zhan Guo couldn't help but frown, and his worries grew deeper.

The thorn on the Five Elder Stars' side already exists, and no one can predict when this thorn will erupt and what consequences it will bring.

He only hoped that Jin An could be a little more restrained and not act so recklessly.

"The balance of this world is inherently fragile..."

Zhan Guo whispered to himself, with a deep worry in his eyes.

He knew that the relationship between the Navy and the World Government was already delicate and complicated, and Jin'an's existence undoubtedly added weight to this balance.

He looked at the gift on the table again, feeling the sincerity in it, but he still couldn't let it go.

He could only pray silently, praying that Jin An would act prudently in the future and not push himself into an abyss from which there was no turning back.

Zhan Guo closed his eyes and sighed softly.

He knew that the storm on the sea was far from over, and each of them was struggling forward in the center of the storm.

But if the World Government really takes action against Jin An, what should he do?

......

Jin An walked out of the marshal's office with other senior naval officials. The air in the corridor seemed heavier than before.

Karp was silent for a while, looked back at the closed office door, and felt a little hesitant.

Finally, he patted Jin An's shoulder and said in a rare serious tone, "Don't take what Zhan Guo just said to heart. He actually cares about you a lot."

Jin An smiled slightly and nodded, "Of course I know these things, Vice Admiral Garp, don't worry."

His tone was calm, and he seemed to be unconcerned about what had just happened.

However, beneath this calm appearance, Jinan's heart did not appear so relaxed.

Just now in the office, every word of Zhan Guo made him realize that what he had done in the world had already attracted the attention of the world government.

Although Zhan Guo's concern and reminder were well-intentioned, they also revealed a fact: his every step had already been watched by the omnipresent CP agents.

"It seems that the tentacles of the World Government are longer than I thought." Jin An thought to himself. He seldom went to those places for the development of power in the four seas, but even so, it was difficult to escape the eyes of those people.

The identity of a naval admiral certainly provides him with a lot of conveniences, but it also means that his every move will be magnified and monitored.

Although on the surface, Jin An acted as if he didn't care, he knew in his heart that as his actions in the four seas gradually unfolded, the relationship between him and the World Government became more and more delicate.

Now that the West Sea has been pacified, his plan is also progressing step by step. The only regret is that the North Sea has not been completely taken over.

But even so, he already has enough strength to protect himself, at least in the next storm, he will not be easily knocked down.

"Marshal Zhan Guo's concerns are not unreasonable, but I have come this far and will never turn back easily."

Jin An was determined in his heart, and a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.

He understood that as his actions became more and more bold, the situation in the future would become more and more complicated, but he was already prepared for the challenge.

Karp walked beside him, and although he still looked cynical on the surface, his concern was real.

Jin An looked at him gratefully and said nothing more.

The two of them remained silent tacitly and continued walking forward.

At the end of the corridor, sunlight shines through the window onto the ground, casting a bright light.

Jin An narrowed his eyes and looked into the distance, having already made a decision in his heart.

No matter how treacherous the road ahead is, he will not back down. The future storm may come earlier than expected, but he is ready to face it all.

"World Government... Five Elders... Your game has just begun, and I will never be the pawn that is easily defeated."

Jin An muttered to himself, with a faint smile on his face.

Jinan stood on a high place at the Navy Headquarters, his eyes penetrating the thick sea fog as he gazed at the towering red earth continent in the distance.

The huge stone barrier that symbolizes the authority of the world government stands proudly in the middle of the ocean like an insurmountable natural barrier, dividing the world into two halves.

The sunlight danced on the sea in the distance, reflecting the grandeur of the red earth continent, but in Jin'an's eyes, it was only coldness and ruthlessness.

He slowly clenched his fists, his fingertips turning slightly white. The thoughts in his mind were like rolling waves, one after another, crashing into his heart.

"Let's see who has the last laugh."

He whispered softly, his voice low and firm.

At this moment, Jinan's heart was filled with complex emotions.

It is the desire to fight, the determination to confront, and the longing for the future.

As a naval admiral, he knew that every step he took would affect the fate of countless people and might even cause shock to the entire world.

But he also understood that the rules of this world have always been made by the strong.

The World Government is the most powerful force in the world today, but what about in the future?
