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

The outline of the red earth continent appears extremely clear in the sunlight, as if it is close at hand, yet seems out of reach.

It is the center of the world, the symbol of power, and also his biggest opponent in the future.

The Five Elders, the Celestial Dragons, the CP Agents...

The huge shadows behind these forces loom over the world and oppress everyone, but to Jin An, they are just another obstacle on the way to his goal.

"They are strong, but they are also conservative." Jin An thought to himself, with a sharp light flashing in his eyes.

He knew that he had to act carefully and not make any mistakes in every step.

But at the same time, he also knew that only by breaking down this huge stone barrier, this center of power that symbolizes injustice and oppression, could he truly remove the mountain on his shoulders.

Anyone who has a sword hanging over his head all the time would feel unhappy.

The wind blew from the sea, carrying a salty and moist smell, ruffling the corners of Jinan's clothes.

His mood gradually calmed down, but his eyes became more determined.

No matter how dangerous the road ahead is, no matter how powerful the forces behind the Red Earth Continent are, he will not retreat.

Because he knows that only by persevering to the end can he achieve final victory.

"World Government, Five Elders... You have been able to rule this world for a long time, but one day, it will all end."

"And I will be the one who witnesses all this with my own eyes." He silently made a vow in his heart, and the light in his eyes became sharper.

Jin An slowly turned around and stopped looking at the red earth continent.

He knew that he still had a lot to do and many challenges to face.

But he also knew that no matter what the outcome, he would never give up easily in this game.

"Let's see who wins and who loses in the end."

He whispered again, let's keep this face that will be torn apart sooner or later for a while.

......

Just after Jinan and the others left the Marshal's office, Borsalino and Sakaski walked into the office together.

Zhan Guo was sitting behind his desk, his eyes slowly sweeping over the two people who had just entered the room.

Borsalino looked as lazy as ever, yawning and with a somewhat absent-minded look in his eyes.

In sharp contrast is Sakaski, who maintains his usual serious expression, his eyes as sharp as knives.

Zhan Guo looked at Borsalino's lazy appearance, and his blood pressure, which had just calmed down, began to rise again. However, he took a deep breath, tried to maintain a calm appearance, and said lightly:

"You are here, please sit down first."

The two of them sat down as instructed.

Sakaski sat upright with his back straight, as if there was infinite power in his body that could burst out at any time.

Borsalino was lazily lying on the sofa, with his legs crossed, gently turning a small wooden stick between his fingers, with his usual nonchalant smile on his face.

"Ahem..." Zhan Guo coughed lightly, trying to get to the point.

"I think you already know what I'm going to tell you."

Sakaski nodded slightly, his eyes still fixed on Zhan Guo, as if trying to read more information from his eyes.

Borsalino slowly put down the small wooden stick and responded lazily:

"Hmm... more or less."

His tone was as casual as ever, but there was an imperceptible glimmer of seriousness in his eyes.

Zhan Guo's eyes moved back and forth between the two of them. He was silent for a moment, as if brewing his next words.

Then he said in a low and steady voice: "It has been a while since my position as general has been vacant. The higher-ups made it clear that they recommended the two of you."

Zhan Guo's voice was not loud, but it was particularly clear in the quiet office.

Every word he uttered carried with it an unquestionable sense of authority that came from his long tenure in a high position.

His eyes wandered between Sakaski and Borsalino, observing their reactions.

Despite their drastically different personalities, Zhan Guo never doubted their strength and loyalty.

That is why he is particularly satisfied with this nomination.

Sakaski didn't say much, just nodded vigorously, as if tacitly agreeing to the appointment.

His eyes were still cold and firm, as if he had already engraved the heavy responsibility on his shoulders in his heart.

Borsalino still had that half-smile on his face, as if this matter did not arouse much interest in him, but Zhan Guo knew that although Borsalino seemed lazy on the surface, he was actually more sober than anyone else.

"Akainu Sakaski, Kizaru Borsalino, you will immediately take up the post of admiral of the Marine Headquarters."

Sengoku finally announced, his tone filled with great seriousness.

Sakaski bowed his head slightly to show his acceptance.

His fists clenched involuntarily, as if he felt the heavy responsibility on his shoulders.

Borsalino shrugged his shoulders, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said lazily:

"Oh... I'm going to be busy now, it's really scary..."

His tone was still frivolous, but his eyes flashed a gleam for an instant, as if he was thinking about something.

Zhan Guo watched the two people's reactions, and his complex emotions surged in his heart at this moment.

He knew that from this moment on, the future of the navy would be written by these two admirals and Jin An.

And he must also be prepared to face the coming troubles.

After all, the three admirals of the navy are now troublemakers, and they might give him a big surprise if he is not careful.

......

"Bulu Bulu...Bulu Bulu..."

Suddenly, the Den Den Mushi on the desk rang. Zhan Guo's expression changed slightly, and then he reached out to pick up the Den Den Mushi.

"I am Sengoku."

His tone was calm and steady as usual, but he felt a little uneasy inside.

There was silence for a moment, then an old voice came from the Den Den Mushi, hoarse and full of majesty.

"Sengoku, regarding what happened in the 'New World', have you received any reports?"

Zhan Guo's brows frowned involuntarily, the calls from the Five Elder Stars were never simple.

He didn't know what specific thing the other party was going to mention, but regarding the New World, a lot of big things had indeed happened recently.

"It's about Whitebeard claiming to be the emperor..."

he said tentatively.

The voice from the Den Den Mushi sounded again, old and a little cold.

"That's right. This is what we are focusing on. The main reason we are communicating with you this time is to inform you that everything going on with the pirates is under our control."

The tone carried an invisible pressure, as if declaring an unquestionable authority.

Zhan Guo was slightly stunned. Although he was used to the strong style of the Five Elders, every word they said still made him feel heavy in his heart.

He knew that this was not just a notification to him, but more of a warning and hint.

Especially in today's turbulent times, any decision may lead to unpredictable consequences.

"Also, take care of Jinan. We don't want to hear about Xihai's incident again!"

The old voice continued, its tone suddenly becoming more severe.

Zhan Guo's heart sank suddenly, as if a huge rock was pressing on his chest.

He had long anticipated that the incident in the West Sea would attract the attention of the World Government, but he did not expect the Five Elders to react so quickly.

Although Jin'an's actions successfully suppressed the pirate forces in the West Sea, this autocratic style obviously made the people above him dissatisfied.

"understood."

Zhan Guo responded in a deep voice, trying to keep his voice steady.

He knew that at this time, any emotional fluctuations would be captured by the other side, which would in turn affect their trust in the navy.

There was another silence on the Den Den Mushi side, as if waiting for Sengoku to make further statement.

However, Sengoku did not say much, but just held the Den Den Mushi tightly, quietly waiting for the other party's next instruction.

"……So be it."

The voice on the other end of the Den Den Mushi eventually calmed down, and it seemed like it had nothing more to say.

Then, the old voice slowly disappeared and the Den Den Mushi returned to silence.
