Admiral candidate?

Ain came to Zephyr and asked with joy, "Mr. Zephyr, do you want him to be your disciple?"

Zephyr stared at Ethan who was confronting Garp, and sighed softly: "That's right! I want him to be my close disciple, and let him join the Pirate Hunting to hone himself."

Ain took the initiative to ask: "Mr. Garp seems to be recruiting him, do you need my help to convince him?"

Zephyr glanced at Ain with a half-smile and joked: "Why, is our Marine Flower tempted?"

Ain was embarrassed and stopped talking.

Zephyr sighed. "What I said was my original idea, but now I've changed my mind."

Ain said in amazement, "Why?"

Zephyr raised his chin, motioned Ain to look at the battle in the ring, and explained, "I have nothing to teach him. He is already qualified to be a Marine with his strength."

Looking at Ethan, who was highly advanced, skilled in physical skills, and becoming braver with each passing moment with Garp, Black Arm Zephyr reluctantly admitted that he was not qualified to teach Ethan.

Ain said in astonishment, "Is this guy a monster?"

Black Arm Zephyr smiled and said, "What's this? The sea has never lacked such gifted monsters. It's just that monsters like him who grow up at a young age are rare."

Boooom!

After a fierce collision, Garp laughed and stepped back, looking at Ethan's declining state and said with satisfaction: "Boy, you are very good! After two more years of practice, you will have the overwhelming fighting power of a Marine Admiral."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar.

What did Garp, the Vice Admiral, just say?

This young and somewhat excessive Marine, can he have Marine Admiral-level combat power after only two years of recruitment?

If anyone else made this assessment, the Marines would have scoffed. Who are you to evaluate a Marine Admiral?

But if this person is Garp, the Marines are absolutely convinced because he is a man who is capable of surpassing Marine Admiral, and his prestige in the Marine is no less than that of Marine Marshal.

"Two years? Not that long!"

Ethan let out a breath and suddenly straightened his body, making a crackling sound from his body, and his momentum rose again.

"you?"

Even Garp was shocked now. Ethan's recovery ability was too perverted, right?

How did he know that at this time, Ethan merged four high-level talents and one middle-level talent, and his talents have entered the top ranks? Is his recovery ability a joke?

The Marines can't deny that Straw Hat Luffy is half-dead after being injured. The terrifying talent that can be restored immediately after eating a piece of meat and sleeping?

Luffy's talent is also at an advanced level, while Ethan's talent is a whole level higher than his.

This kind of physical wear and tear caused by the loss of strength after a fierce battle, he can recover with a short breath.

Not only that, the injury he suffered before will stimulate his body and greatly improve his strength.

Garp couldn't help but complain: "What's wrong with you, kid? Your physique is too perverted. Saying that you have such a perverted physique, your strength should be stronger now."

Garp was a little puzzled and looked at Ethan in confusion.

Ethan shook his head without explaining.

This kind of thing can't be explained. Do you tell him that he has just acquired such a terrifying talent?

Instead of telling a lie that needs countless lies to make up for, it is better to just not explain it and let them figure it out on their own.

Ethan said, "Mr. Garp, are you still my teacher? With all due respect, what I need is not a teacher, but an evenly matched battle."

Garp laughed and said, "It's easy to handle, I'll be your sparring partner! To be honest, your physical skills give me a sense of familiarity, much like an old friend of mine. Unfortunately, he's finished!"

Whitebeard in the chat group: "…"

Before Ethan used his physical skills to fight Garp to the flesh, he knew very well that Garp was talking about him.

Ethan: "Hehe~ That is, I didn't use swordsmanship to compete with Garp, otherwise he would feel more familiar."

Golden Lion Shiki: "Right against Garp with Roger's swordsmanship? Good idea."

Ethan: "Put it down! This is a bad idea, Garp will definitely recognize it. After all, Garp's love for Roger is not under yours!"

Golden Lion Shiki: "…"

It's muddy!

Don't always talk about my relationship with Roger, am I ashamed?

Whitebeard: "Gu la la la! Aren't you afraid of being seen by him using my physical skills?"

Ethan: "Don't be afraid, Garp has no feelings for you."

Whitebeard: "…"

I really owe it!

I know this kid doesn't talk when he's sick, why should I ignore him?

Ethan: "Just kidding! Your taijutsu is mainly used in conjunction with Shock Fruit's ability. If I don't use Shock Fruit's power, he can't be sure that this is your taijutsu. At most, it feels similar."

...

Office of the Marshal.

Black Arm Zephyr reported to Marshal Sengoku about Ethan with excitement and said with emotion: "It seems that our Marines' luck is still good! Although pirates are rampant now, we, the Marines, still have hope."

During this period, the pirate force on the sea has been very arrogant. The death of Whitebeard did not suppress the arrogance of the pirates but instead gave them hope of becoming the Pirate King.

When Whitebeard was alive, as the strongest man in the world, he did not become the Pirate King but prevented others from becoming the Pirate King, like a dam blocking the flood.

Now the dam has collapsed, and since the beginning of the era of the Great Pirates, the floods that have been accumulated for 20 years are surging, and the Marine side is a little bit overwhelmed.

Black Arm Zephyr laughed, "Although Ethan is still very young, he is very talented and will reach his peak earlier than others. He is qualified to be a candidate for admiral."

Sengoku was surprised: "Is Ethan's talent really so terrifying? You actually think he is qualified to be the next Marine III Admiral."

Black Arm Zephyr laughed: "It's not just me, even Garp thinks so. We even think that he will have Admiral-level combat power in a year and a half at most."

Marshal Sengoku nodded and while ordering his subordinates to bring over the documents about Ethan, he had someone call Ethan over.

Black Arm Zephyr said with a smile: "I'm afraid he doesn't have time to come now. You can see it by looking at the window."

Marshal Sengoku was curious and walked to the window to see that there was a sea of people in the distance, and in the center of the crowd were two people fighting fiercely.

Marshal Sengoku said, "That man is Garp, who is the young man fighting him? Good guy, he's really good! Wait, he's Ethan?"

Black Arm Zephyr nodded and said, "That's right! The young man who is fighting Garp is Ethan! How's that, isn't he good?"

In the battle arena.

Ethan is fighting with Garp, and fighting is the fastest way to improve his strength.

In the chat group, Whitebeard spoke with some dissatisfaction.

Whitebeard: "I said, why are you addicted? Leave after testing your strength. My sons are still waiting for you to save them!"

Ethan: "What are you in a hurry? I'm not preparing! Although the things you gave me are very powerful, giving me an Admiral-level combat power, but it's not enough!"

Whitebeard: "What do you want from us?"

Whitebeard is a little wary, this kid won't think about taking benefits and not working, right?

Ethan: "Don't get excited, you don't have what I want."

Golden Lion Shiki: "I'm curious when you say that, what do you want?"

Ethan: "Physical strength! It can also be said to be stamina and endurance! I have the combat strength of an Admiral, but the stamina of a minion, you understand? I can match Admiral's output with all my strength, but I'm exhausted in less than an hour."

Golden Lion Shiki: "That's a problem."

Ethan: "Really? Look at Golden Lion Shiki. In Naval Headquarters, Garp and Sengoku fought for three days and three nights. This is still a one-on-two situation. If it is one-on-one, no ten days and ten nights are indistinguishable. win or lose."

Whitebeard: "What does this have to do with saving my son?"

Ethan: "Of course it matters! To save your son, you have to defeat Blackbeard. Have I used up any physical strength over Blackbeard? Don't forget, you were killed by Blackbeard because of your lack of physical strength."

Golden Lion Shiki: "Huh? Whitebeard was killed by his son because he was physically weak? Hahaha, this is big news."

Fire Fist Ace: "Dad, is it true?"

Whitebeard: "It's true! At that time, I had already defeated Blackbeard Teach, and when I was about to deal with him, the dark wound on my body erupted, and I was exhausted by Blackbeard and his men."

Pirate King Roger: "Tsk tsk tsk! Then you are really embarrassed, and your success is close to success!"

Whitebeard: "Success and failure? I don't care about such meaningless things. I'm just a little pity that I didn't get rid of the scourge of Blackbeard Teach for my sons. Sadly, I left them an unforgivable badass."

Ethan: "So! Your death has fully demonstrated the importance of physical strength. I don't want to be killed by Blackbeard because of my lack of physical strength. Physical strength is something you can't give me."

Whitebeard: "No, I don't think so! I think you don't need to spend time with Teach at all, you can just destroy him. You have received so many magical skills from us, plus Teach's frivolous and conceited character, you can take him with a wave of outbreaks. go."

Whitebeard expressed his dissatisfaction. He beat Blackbeard to the point of almost killing him. It only took a few minutes in total. You Ethan can't even hold it for a few minutes, right?

Ethan: "The present is not what it used to be. Blackbeard is no longer the Blackbeard of the past. Whitebeard, if you look at him with the old eyes, you will suffer a lot."
