Chapter 37 : Garp's invitation to marine

In the clearing.

Blaze looked at the Marine hero in front of him and said without thinking much:

"I don't want to be a Marine."

Garp's asked little seriously: "Why? Is there anything wrong with being a Marine? Or do you want to be a pirate just like Ace and Luffy?"

He was a little concerned.

Blaze has this kind of strength at the age of 10 years old. What if you give him some more time?

If such a beast is allowed to become a pirate, Sengoku will definitely tear him up if he knows it.

"I don't want to be a marine nor a pirate"

Blaze sheathed Raikiri in his hands.

Garp was puzzled when he heard the words.

If the kid doesn't want to be either a marine or a pirate than why is he training so hard.

Still it was good that he didn't want to be a pirate . Although it was little regrettable that he didn't want to be marine but Garp was still satisfied with it.

Unlike his grandson who still wants to be a king of pirates even after tasting many of his love fist , thinking of this he still feels a headache .

"If you don't want to be a Marine then the old man can't teach you."

Garp stood up, looked at Blaze and said little seriously.

Otherwise, he is sure that he can train the Blaze in front of him to become one of the strongest marine ever.

"Although learning from a marine hero will help me a lot but I have confidence in myself to become stronger by myself."

Blaze said resolutely.

There is a system that he can sign-in to become stronger and a permanent buff that can shorten the training time.

He is confident in the speed at which his strength will improve.

This time he used all his strength to fight Garp and it was a great experience for him. After he completely goes through it he will learn a lot , by which he estimates that he will be able to reach the next level.

"Old man, I just want to know one thing."

"What?"

Garp crossed his arms and raised his eyebrows, and although he was thinking of giving a love fist for calling him old man , but for the sake of him saying that he will not be pirate , he didn't go through it.

"What kind of level is my current strength in the sea?"

Blaze looked at him and asked curiously since he only had a little guess from his anime experience.

"Well."

Garp thought for a while with his arms folded and said, "Although you are not a devil fruit user and you don't know Haki but your physical strength is far superior to others, plus your swordsmanship a...In my opinion, Your strength is almost equivalent to a pirate with bounty of 30 to 40 million belly."

"In marine, you almost have the strength of a commander in our rank. I know a logia fruit user named Smoker, who just came out of Marine Academy. You are not much different from his current strength."

"But if you really want to fight, you probably won't be his opponent."

"Sure enough, Haki is still missing..."

Blaze thought to himself.

He glanced at Garp in front of him. It would be best if he could learn from the marine hero himself.

Garp seems to read his thoughts.

Garp winked at him and smiled: "If you want me to teach you to become stronger, you have to join marine because otherwise if it's known that I taught you without connection to marine I will be chewed on by Sengoku"

Blaze held Raikiri and turned away.

The next period of time.

Every time Blaze exercises with Ace and Luffy, Garp will be there.

Although Blaze still wants to have more fights with him, Garp has an attitude that I will teach you only when you accept me as a teacher and join Marine, which annoys him.

From time to time, he would also be in front of Blaze, pointing out Kuina's swordsmanship and body skills.

The two wanted to learn and teach, but they secretly competed over the question of whether to join Marine.

That being said.

Garp and Blaze sometimes drink together in Makino's tavern.

When two figures, one large and one small, sit side by side in front of the counter, they are really eye-catching.

Makino couldn't help but laugh every time she saw the drunk old man and young boy sitting at the counter and hooking their shoulders to each other and complimenting each other.

That evening.

After Blaze finished training with Ace and Luffy, Garp called him to his side.

Blaze sat down beside him.

"What do you want me to do?"

Garp, wearing a floral shirt, sat cross-legged beside him, changed his smile and said to Blaze sternly:

"Blaze, the old man wants to know why you don't want to be a Marine, is it because of Sabo?"

"That's right." Blaze said, "For me, what marine calls justice is hypocritical . For common people the justice and evil in this world have long been represented by Marine and the pirates but in reality there's no perfect justice or evil in both of them."

"That's right. I didn't expect you to have this kind of thinking at a young age."

Garp took out a piece of senbei from packet, "Would you like to eat senbei?"

Blaze reached out his hand.

Garp reluctantly handed him a piece.

The two ate senbei together.

Garp said as he ate, "Everyone who's a Marine has justice that he wants to protect in his heart. Everyone is different. Some are stubborn and some are old-fashioned,although not all but the overall is good. But among the pirates, there is only a small part that is special, and most of the other pirates are villains who will resort for anything if it benefits them!"

Kaka.

Garp rattled the senbei in his mouth, turned his head to look at Blaze and said, "I am also very angry about Sabo. The old man also knows that those Celestial Dragons are all trash. But in this matter, the old man can do nothing. Because those trash Celestial Dragons represents the order, if this order is broken, the whole world will become extremely chaotic and it will turn up a storm that will overturn the whole sea. Even a small place like Foosha village will not be spared."

"But I hope that there will be changes in the future, in the hands of the young marines in the future, instead of letting the pirates conflict with the rules of order and triggering a chaotic storm that overturns the world."

Garp spoke in a extremely serious tone.

"Blaze, you have great potential. You have more potential than anyone the old man has ever met . The old man sincerely hopes that you can also become a part of the hand that promotes the change of the world in the future."

"So , join Marine!"

Blaze lowered his head and ate the senbei and was silent for a long time.

"Whether to join Marine or not . I can only decide after seeing with my own eyes."

"What's the meaning?"

He raised his eyes to look at Garp, grinned, and spoke which made Garp a little surprised.

"Does Marine recruit interns?".
