Chapter 22: Messenger of the Country of the Sea

Inside the training ground on the first floor of the Marine Base building.

The surrounding windows illuminate the room brilliantly, and there are two rows of green plants around it, bringing a bit of life to this majestic building.

In the middle of the training ground, there are several figures inside, and one of the young men is doing weight training.

After eliminating the Kaguya clan ninjas, Akira asked Vergo to start training him.

"Your Majesty, is he really alright?"

Seeing Akira running around the training ground with his upper body bare and his sandbags dripping with sweat, Kitano asked worriedly from beside him.

Although the punching bag is only 200 jins, there is no problem for him, but Akira, as the heir to a Daimyo who has always been pampered, has never had such high-intensity exercise training. Before, even carrying a bucket of water was difficult.

In his opinion, Akira is not like other nobles at all, even himself, in the same conditions, with the support of Vergo and Crocodile, and even a mysterious organization, it's hard to believe how willing Akira is to do high-intensity training. .

"Why don't you take a break?"

Kitano picked up the tea that his servant had brought and called out to Akira in anguish.

"I'm fine, Kitano, you can go train too, don't let me get ahead of you."

Akira shook her head. The 200-pound punching bag has exceeded his current body limit. If it wasn't for the cohesion method Vergo taught him, he probably wouldn't be able to carry it, let alone run.

"Yeah!"

Seeing Akira's serious appearance, Kitano's expression immediately turned serious and he responded loudly.

He knew that his current strength was at the bottom of Akira's team. For which he had to strive.

If it had been earlier, he would have given up by now, but after having the Devil Fruit, he also trusted, even if Akira didn't care, he didn't want to gradually become a burden to him.

The pride of a samurai is never to give up, even if there is a glimmer of hope.

"His Majesty, time is up, he can rest."

Vergo stepped forward, looked at the time and said suddenly.

"Hoooo."

Hearing Vergo's voice, Akira exhaled and threw the sandbag two to three meters away.

When the sandbag left his shoulders, he felt a sensation of relief wash over his body, followed by indescribable pain.

"Quickly, prepare hot water and wound medicine for His Majesty immediately."

Watching Akira's strict compliance with the training requirements, Kitano admired and noted the blood stains on Akira's shoulders from the punching bag. From the beginning to the end, Akira never yelled.

"Why are you in a panic? This pain is not a problem for the Majesty."

Crocodile, who was watching from the side, walked over, looked at Kitano, and said dismissively.

"Ahh….this.…I didn't want to….."

Hearing this, Kitano immediately looked embarrassed, thinking that when he trained in the past, he often suffered so much pain and even risked losing his life.

Looking at Crocodile, Akira rolled his eyes, he came from the earth, his body is thin skinned and tender meat, you think you all have the physique of you pirates.

"Report"

"The Country of the Sea is here to ask to see the Majesty of her."

At this time, T Bone quickly entered the door and reported loudly.

"The Country of the Sea?"

Akira was stunned for a moment, feeling confused.

"Your Majesty, the Sea Country borders the eastern part of the Water Country. It is a country next to Cardan Island. It makes its living by fishing, and there is no powerful force in it. Every year, it pays tribute to the Country of Water and seek refuge".

"This time, the news that he killed the Kaguya clan ninjas in revenge may have already spread. I guess they are here to show their favor."

Kitano, who was next to him, saw Akira's doubts, and immediately told what he knew about the Country of the Sea.

"Bring them to see me."

Akira nodded and did not directly reject the other party's interview request.

"Here?"

"Wouldn't that be a little rude?"

Kitano looked at the somewhat messy training ground around her and immediately asked curiously.

However, seeing that neither Vergo nor Crocodile spoke, he immediately fell silent.

The messenger sent by the Country of the Sea this time is none other than the eldest son, the next leader of the Country of the Sea, Fujiro Heyuan.

"There's something special about this big fireplace!"

Originally, T Bone brought Fujiro Heyuan to a large fireplace and was still a bit dissatisfied, but after seeing that the interior was completely different from the gray exterior, he immediately had another thought and his eyes swept over with burning eyes. His heart stopped as he saw the training ground in the distance.

"Your Majesty, you are here."

T Bone fell back after bringing Heyuan Fujiro in front of Akira.

Following the voice, Heyuan Fujiro also looked forward immediately, his eyes fell on Akira's young face, and his eyes were stunned.

"This is the guy who killed the Hoshino family? Sure enough, he is a child."

Heyuan Fujiro looked at Akira and his mind suddenly came alive.

"Hello, His Majesty, I am Fujiro Heyuan, the eldest son of the leader of the Country of the Sea. I heard that His Excellency took office, and I brought him a gift to congratulate him."

Looking at the people around Akira again, Heyuan Fujiro said in a low voice very respectfully.
