Chapter 16 Practicing Haki? It's Better To Lie Flat And Stick With Your Sister!

Crocus appreciates Erza's talent and believes that she has improved in Haki during the three-day training. However, he doesn't consider himself a master of Haki as his attainments are only average compared to top Haki masters like Rayleigh and Roger.

Erza's talent and hard work have helped her touch Haki's fur in just three days, while Nami, Juvia, and Mirajan didn't take the training seriously. Juvia's water magic is already a powerful ability, so Haki isn't as important for her as it is for Erza.

Su Yu never intended to practice Haki as his Lightning Dragon Slayer magic is similar to Logia's abilities, and he can also use seastone weapons, which are rarely used by the strong in the One Piece world. Su Yu plans to improve his strength by upgrading the guild.

It's important to note that relying solely on luck or external factors to improve one's skills is not a reliable or sustainable method. It's crucial to put in the effort and practice to hone one's abilities.

While being part of a powerful guild or crew can certainly provide advantages, it's ultimately up to the individual to put in the work and improve themselves.

"Ah, President"

"I just realized that we normally get paid after completing a job, but this time we were paid in advance. If we can't complete the job, what happens then?"

"No 'if'!" Su Yu grinned resolutely. "Don't worry, Erza. This commission will definitely be completed!"

Su Yu stood up and walked in front of the whale, Laboon. "Laboon, this is my promise to you. Within a year, I will definitely bring back the Rumba Pirates. So, before I come back, you must take good care of your body and stop hitting the Red Line meaninglessly. Got it?" Su Yu said.

Nami whispered to herself, "He does seem a little handsome right now."

"I didn't say that!" exclaimed. Nami immediately denied it

The next moment, she felt a pat on her back and turned to see Juvia staring at her.

As Nami wielded Lucy's Protoss magic, she also inherited her knack for catching Juvia's attention.

Su Yu waved his hand and exclaimed, "Hahaha, girls, get ready to set sail!"

With that, Fairy Tail set off on their journey.

Crocus sighed and said, "Laboon, I have a feeling that something good will happen this time."

........

Shortly after leaving Twin Point.

"President, let's sunbathe together"

Juvia was feeling reserved when they were at Cape Twin due to Crocus. However, now that they were out at sea, Juvia couldn't contain her excitement and impulsively removed her skirt.

She was wearing a revealing blue bikini that showed off her curves and was shamelessly sticking close to Su Yu. Nami blushed at the sight and her heart raced with the excitement.

"Mr. President, could you please help me put on sunscreen that covers my entire body?" Juvia asked in a sincere tone.

"Yes, yes, yes!" Su Yu agreed, shaking his head. He grabbed the sunscreen but hadn't started applying it yet. Suddenly, something happened in the next moment.

Boom!

All of a sudden, there was an explosion in the sky and dark rain clouds took over the previously clear sky. The rain started pouring heavily, ruining Juvia's plan to get Su Yu to apply sunscreen while sunbathing.

"Oh no, why did it have to rain all of a sudden? Juvia didn't want this to happen!" Juvia looked disappointed, frustrated, and confused.

"Don't worry, Juvia. I know this sudden rain isn't your doing. This is just how the weather is in the Grand Line; it's always changing!" Su Yu explained. As soon as he finished speaking, the rain suddenly stopped, and heavy snowflakes started falling down.

Soon after, a storm hit followed by a massive hailstorm. The harsh climate kept changing every few minutes, but Su Yu and his crew faced no significant obstacles as Xeon Thunder was able to overcome anything they encountered, including hail and icebergs at sea.

"Alright, let's head back to the cabin. We don't want anyone catching a cold," Su Yu said as he casually picked up Juvia and walked back inside the cabin.

Juvia smiled happily as she wrapped her slender arms around Su Yu's neck.

" President, my body are all wet. Can you help me dry off?" Juvia whispered shyly.

"For such a trivial matter, there's no need to trouble the president. Let me help you," Erza said with a smile as she took Juvia from Su Yu.

Erza lifted Juvia in her arms and spun around before tossing her gently in the air. Juvia's body spun like a washing machine drum, but it was a gentle and fun experience.

"Is that enough, or do you want me to do it again?" Erza asked with a smile.

"That's enough for now," Juvia replied with a playful tone.

"Alright then," Erza said, still smiling.

There is a joyful atmosphere in the guild.

"How is it? Nami, this is Fairy Tail, and it will be more lively in the future!" Su Yu said.

"I'll be looking forward to it!" Nami smiled slightly.

"Then the rest of the voyage will be left to you!"

Two days later, Fairy Tail arrived at their first destination on the Grand Line, Whiskey Peak.
