Ch 28 : Lake's return

" Teacher, why-"

Hearing Zephyr's loud declaration, Ain could not understand her teacher's meaning. These guys certainly were enemies, so why bother to make them stronger.

But Zephyr's next words really shut her up. In fact, it even lit the fighting spirits in her.

" Well Ain, if you have any complaint, then how about getting stronger? Therefore, you could protect this brat better in case something happened."

When Zephyr mentioned "something happened", Cade clearly understood that what Zephyr meant was in case the Cp9 betrayed him. Cade wanted to rebuke, but looking at the fire growing in Ain's eyes, he decided not to.

In any case, if Ain could also get stronger, then it would be good for him.

The force of Sullivan Kingdom was starting to grow, and he certainly didn't want to be one that would hinder the growth of Sullivan Kingdom.

After all, about two years later would be the Marineford War, and the world would change greatly after that.

Luffy will go to the sea, Three of the four emperors will be taken down, and that fruit will be awoken in about five years. In this kind of hectic situation, one could not depend on something more than his own strength, and if Cade wanted to protect the Sullivan Kingdom, he needed to get the Sullivan Kingdom stronger.

Before, his technology had attracted a Shicibukai and Spandam. And he could not be so sure when his technologies would attract something like Yonko.

In any case, attracting a yonko would be far different from offending Shicibukai like Crocodile. They were all crazy, and he would be left with nothing if he didn't do anything.

Looking at the growing determination in everyone's eyes, Zephyr gave the nod.

" Good, then you guys should know there are three types of Haki. We will not talk about Conqueror Haki first. For Armament Haki, you will be training with me, and for observation Haki….."

Zephyr shifted his gaze at Cade, which made Cade feel there was something bad waiting for him.

Zephyr then patted Cade's shoulder.

" Your training is simple. You guys should try your best to land a hit on him. You might not see it, but this guy is a genius in observation Haki. Once you guys could land a hit on him, then your training is over. Though I don't think it will be finished in anywhere near the future Hahahahah!"

Zephyr's words, this time truly had lifted the fighting spirits in the eyes of Cp9.

And from the side, Cade could really see they looked at him dangerously.

" ... "

Cade: ' *Hiks* what do I do wrong to be treated like this.'

. . . . . . . . .

About two weeks had passed since that day.

And today, Cade was sitting in his office with a black circle under his eyes.

There's really no helping it. After all, these Cp9 guys were too rigorous. Even during the night, they didn't stop and always tried to ambush Cade.

Though on the bright side, with the continuous attack from the Cp9, Cade was also forced to train his physic, and now his physics was way stronger than your average normal man in One Piece World. Two birds with one stone if Zephyr could say.

However, today was fated to be far from being calm.

Because just now, Cade received a report from Lake that he would come back.

He wanted to come and warn the guys not to attack.

But it was too late.

When Cade reached the harbor, he had already seen Lake being tied up and beaten down by the member of Cp9 and Ain.

" Oh your majesty, don't worry. We have seen the pirates coming, and we had handled him. Though he spewed some nonsense like knowing you, we have handled him on our own."

Ain seeing Cade coming, immediately come and report with a look of 'praise me' displayed on her face.

The other Cp9 member also nodded with a triumphant look, as if saying it was a small matter.

However, only Cade in the inside, didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Cade: 'You guys look so aloof and all, but don't you guys know that the one you beat up is my trusted confidant?'

Nonetheless, Cade did not blame them.

After all, he never explained to them that Lake was his undercover in Pirates.

Cade patted Ain head for a while, then he walked toward Lake. Who had long seen him and looked at him with a begging expression.

" My liege, I…. Hiks…."

" It's okay, Lake. I know how hard you tried. These guys, they are just stronger than you."

Against Lake, Cade really could not blame him.

He took his time calming Lake down.

Because next, he knew things would get a bit muddy.

' There he comes..'

Without even needing to look back, the intense pressure had given away the identity of the person coming.

Zephyr, with an incoming fury, was looking at Cade and Lake. And his eyes this time, had a trace of a murderous aura.

" Brat, you better give me a good explanation this time. Else, I will murder this pirate!!"
