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

On the sea, the sky is boundless, the sea breeze is warm, and the warship is moving steadily on the calm sea.

Jinan stood on the deck, looking into the distance through the ship's railing. The sea was as calm as a huge mirror, as if everything was calm.

However, he knew in his heart that this apparent calm was just the calm before the storm.

Zefa lay in a chair on the deck, his arms crossed over his chest, enjoying the warmth of the sun.

His expression was relaxed, with a faint smile on his face.

"It's no big deal to send two people away. It's better than executing them."

Zephyr's voice was comforting, he understood Whitebeard's character better than anyone else.

Just escorting the two captains would not trigger an irreversible war.

Jin An also leaned on the railing beside him, his eyes solemn.

"Teacher Zefa, just leave the escort mission to me. I am really sorry for bothering you to come here in person."

There was a hint of apology in Jinan's tone.

He knew in his heart that Zefa's arrival was not only for this mission, but also to escort Zhan Guo and others and provide him with an invisible support.

Zefa opened one eye and glanced at Jinan calmly.

"It's no problem, I've had enough of G5 lately, I just came out to relax. Besides, Cap is a shaky guy, I don't feel comfortable with him coming over."

He said it lightly, but he knew in his heart that this mission was by no means a simple escort.

His tone suddenly became serious, "But don't let your guard down. This journey won't be peaceful."

Jinan's lips curled up slightly, and his heart felt warmed by Zefa's concern.

"Of course I know." He responded in a low voice, with a calm and determined light flashing in his eyes.

"I brought a lot of people with me this time. I hope those people will come to cause trouble with the belief that they will die."

"..."

At this time, the door of the cabin was pushed open, and Kuzan, Shiryu, Enel, and Doflamingo walked out one by one. They had different auras, but without exception, they all carried an indomitable momentum.

Kuzan was still dragging his long steps lazily, Shiryu was playing with the sword in his hand that was ready to be unsheathed at any time, Enel had a look of disdain on his face, as if nothing in the world was in his eyes, and Doflamingo was laughing wantonly, as if he was looking forward to the coming chaos.

"We are still expecting those people to come," Kuzan said lazily, his tone revealing a nonchalant confidence, "I will make sure they never come back."

Xiliu sneered, tapping the hilt of the sword with his fingers, "I really miss the smell of blood that I haven't seen for a long time."

There was a flash of lightning in Enel's eyes, and his smile was a little crazy. "These mortals are trying to challenge the majesty of God without knowing the consequences. I will let them know what despair is."

Doflamingo raised his head and laughed, "Hahahaha, the sooner this game starts, the better!"

Jin An looked at this group of comrades who had their own thoughts and were very powerful, but the pressure in his heart did not ease at all.

Because the enemy is so powerful, the troops sent by the navy will certainly not be ordinary people.

No one knows what kind of dangers and traps they will encounter along the way.

He put his hands behind his back, took a deep breath, and calmed his heart.

"Everyone, please be prepared. No matter who your opponent is, you must have the belief that you will win." Jin An's voice was low and firm.

Zefa looked at Jinan's back, and a hint of relief flashed in his eyes.

Jin An has grown into a general capable of standing on his own, but he is also facing unprecedented challenges.

Zefa knew that this mission was not only a test of Jinan’s ability, but also a test of his inner fortitude.

"I hope all this can end smoothly." Zefa prayed silently in his heart, but he knew that the sea has never been a place where everything is smooth.

In the distance, the sea is still calm, but behind this calmness, countless unknowns and dangers are hidden.

Jin An knew very well that he could only breathe a sigh of relief after this mission was successfully completed.

Before that, he must remain vigilant and not relax for a moment.

......

In the sea not far from Impel Down, the Whitebeard Pirates' fleet was quietly anchored, and the atmosphere was filled with a suppressed tension.

The pirates on every ship watched the movements around them vigilantly. The sea breeze brushed across their faces, but could not blow away the heaviness in their hearts.

The sails were slightly raised, and the sea water hit the side of the ship, making a low echo, as if foreshadowing the coming storm.

Marco stood on the deck, looking solemnly at the distant horizon.

Although his face remained calm, the anxiety and anger in his heart were like an undercurrent, ready to erupt at any time.

His fingers trembled slightly, indicating his inner anxiety and conflict.

After years of baptism in battle, he had long learned how to conceal his emotions, but the news of Joz and Sachi's arrest still made him unable to completely calm down.

"Dad," Marco finally broke the silence, his voice low and suppressed, his fists clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned white from the force.

"What do you think the World Government will decide? If the situation turns out to be unfavorable to Joz and the others, I won't let it go!"

There was an unquestionable determination in his voice, which was the deep affection for his companions and the unconditional loyalty to the Whitebeard Pirates family.

As the captain of the first team of the Whitebeard Pirates, Marco has followed Whitebeard since he was a child. His relationship with Jozu and Thatch has long surpassed ordinary brotherhood and is more of an inseparable family relationship.

Now that his family is threatened, how can he remain indifferent?

Whitebeard sat quietly on the deck, his huge body seeming heavier than everything around him.

There was a hint of fatigue and worry on his wrinkled face, and his eyes revealed a deep thought.

Although he had experienced countless battles and life-and-death tests, the situation this time made him feel extremely difficult.

He adopted so many sons, and each one was precious to him.

Whitebeard's heart was filled with complex emotions, including worry about Jozu and Thatch, as well as deep concerns about the future situation.

"Don't worry, Marco." Whitebeard finally spoke, his voice deep and steady, with a reassuring power. "I believe there are people in the navy who understand."

Although his words were calm, they concealed a calm assessment of the situation.

Years of experience have taught him that excitement and impulsiveness will only make the situation more uncontrollable.

He knew that the navy was not a monolithic entity and that there were some people within it who possessed reason and conscience.

He was unwilling to easily push the relationship between the Whitebeard Pirates and the Navy to the point of life and death.

"There's no need for a life-and-death situation between us and the navy." Whitebeard continued, his eyes solemn and determined, as if he was convincing himself while comforting Marco.

Although Whitebeard's words were calm and rational, the worries deep in his heart never subsided.

As a father, he could not bear to see his children being hurt, but he also knew that launching a full-scale war easily would only put more children in danger.

Whitebeard gripped his machete tightly, the veins on his hands exposed, showing his inner struggle.

His choice was not only based on reason, but also to protect more family members from unnecessary sacrifice.

As Marco listened to Whitebeard's words, the anger in his heart gradually subsided, but he still couldn't let it go completely.

He took a deep breath and looked at Whitebeard with a firm gaze, his tone revealing a hint of unwillingness and helplessness.

"I know what you mean, Dad. But if they dare to touch Joz and Thatch, I will never sit idly by!"

Whitebeard nodded slightly, he knew Marco's determination.

As the leader of a pirate group, he understands the importance of brotherhood better than anyone else.

His gaze once again turned into the distance, and the endless sea seemed to foreshadow the uncertainty of the future.

No matter what is coming, he will do his best to protect his family as a father.
