Chapter 80 Mastering Ryuo! Garp in the East Blue?
Five days later.
Naval Headquarters, Marineford, Detention Unit Quarters.
Inside the alternate dimension, the rat that had come to deliver the 'goods' slowly walked away.
Loy held the box in his hand, and after confirming that no one was around, he left the alternate dimension and eagerly opened it.
Inside the box, the pitch-black "Enma Iron" lay quietly—Koushirou, who had successfully shown his disciple the vastness of the sea, had kept his promise.
"I don't know what you intend to do with it, whether it's forging weapons or conducting research, but please, sir, do not disgrace my father's hard work."
After saying this, the great swordsman, who had been hiding in the East Sea for many years, readily gave the Enma Iron to the Pig.
The Pig immediately handed the Yama Iron to the Rat, who had been hiding nearby.
Yes.
Although the boar is just an avatar, and Roy has a basic understanding of the Revolutionary Army.
However, given his personality, he would never let the Pig go alone without any preparation.
So in fact, in Frostmoon Village, the Rat was actually with the Pig the whole time, but it was hiding in another dimension.
If any unusual activity is detected from the revolutionary army, then the Rat can immediately take the Pig away.
Besides, Roy didn't even care that the Revolutionary Army took away the "Pluto Alloy" - because if the Revolutionary Army was hostile to him, the Pluto Alloy made by the Pig could itself be a "bomb".
"I'm really quite cunning."
Roy sighed, then turned his attention back to the box in front of him.
[Devil Fruit Loading: Quick-Cut Fruit → Gluttony Fruit]
Without hesitation, after switching the fruit, he swallowed the Yama Iron along with the box into his stomach.
then
"Thump!" "Thump!"
Roy could clearly hear his own heartbeat, which at that moment seemed to pound like a drum.
As a practitioner of the Black Body Stream, he has gradually gained control over the subtle changes in his own body and can now perceive the changes in his body at this moment.
With the power of the Swallow-Swallow Fruit activated, his body is rapidly transforming into 'Enma Iron'.
However, the power of the Human-Human Fruit is also at work, so his body still retains its human form.
But a power surged from within him.
It was not flesh and bones, but the power he had previously felt in the deep sea, hidden deep within him.
The power that originally required Roy's constant guidance to be unleashed was now being continuously absorbed from his body.
then
"Buzz!"
Roy saw his arms begin to change.
A dark red aura, tinged with darkness, coiled around his arms and encircled his torso.
They flowed continuously, as if they were alive.
At the same time, Roy had a feeling that his punch at that moment could raze the entire dormitory to the ground.
That is
"Ryuo".
Roy's lips curled into a smile.
As he expected—what was currently wrapped around him was 'Flowing Cherry Blossom'.
And
"Enma Iron is uncontrollable and will infinitely absorb the host's Haki to release, but because of the Gluttony Fruit, I can completely control the intensity of the Haki it releases."
Roy pondered to himself.
"The only problem is that I'm not proficient enough in mastering Haki. There's still a big gap between me and those top Haki masters."
It is only natural.
Top-tier Haki users like Garp and Zephyr can control every wisp of their Haki with ease, unleashing tremendous power.
But Roy is clearly much worse in this respect.
However, Roy was not in a hurry.
because
"That's enough."
He clenched his fist, feeling the immense power within him: "As long as I continue to cultivate the Black Body Style, I will eventually be able to hone my mastery of domineering aura to an extremely high level."
"Moreover, although it was through the help of Enma Iron that the Haki was drawn out, it was still by leveraging the Haki within the body."
It's like someone who originally needed to dig with their hands, but instead used tools to dig through a solid dam ahead of time—although they took a shortcut, the hole has been opened, and their body is gradually adapting to their domineering aura.
"My teacher originally estimated that it would take me at least ten more years to refine the Overbearing Hammer to its peak level."
"But with the help of the Gluttony Fruit, I should be able to master all of my Haki in three years at most—by then, even without the Gluttony Fruit, I should be able to do so."
After murmuring a few times, Roy also stood up.
"In that case, let's go and give Professor Zephyr a surprise."
He grinned.
That's right—he suddenly mastered Haki through his own 'talent,' but this matter definitely needs to be reviewed with Zephyr first.
With this in mind, Roy picked up the remaining half-cup of cola and drank it all in one gulp. Then he decisively left the dormitory and headed towards the Zephyr training camp.
Along the way, the Navy Headquarters had undergone considerable changes compared to before—the most obvious change was that a huge dome had been raised on the southern coastline of the headquarters, with the words 'SSG' written on it.
"Making it all so mysterious."
Roy wasn't surprised.
He had already heard that the cover was a product of the Navy's special scientific team sealing off the tri-service military exercise area to prevent anyone from seeing the exercise content in advance.
By the way, Far and the brothers in the Loy detention unit have recently volunteered to start collecting information on some of the contestants.
So here's the question: why wasn't Hans among those gathering intelligence?
The answer is simple.
"Boss, you're Hans's boss, you can't let us down."
"You've got to take down the Space Guard and CP9, you absolutely have to!"
Because Hans became unusually arrogant after eating the fruit, Lloyd recently had a friendly martial arts sparring session with him, and Hans is still receiving an IV drip in the infirmary.
"Hopefully, there's no risk of fully recovering before the joint military exercises."
Roy muttered to himself.
Unbeknownst to him, he had already arrived at the Zephyr training camp.
He entered the password into the training camp with practiced ease and quickly arrived at Zefa's office.
"Roy the Kid?"
Upon seeing him, Zephyr, who had just hung up his Den Den Mushi, was also somewhat surprised.
"Teacher, where's Binz?"
Roy said casually.
"Aion returned to port today after a mission, and he went to pick her up."
"Senior Sister Ain?"
Upon hearing this, Roy was also somewhat surprised.
Ain.
Four years ago, when Zefa was attacked, he was the only other person besides Binz who survived on that recruit training ship.
For the past two months, she has been on missions outside the country.
Hearing that she had finally returned, Roy was quite happy.
The main reason was that he knew that this Senior Sister Ain was also a Devil Fruit user, and a very rare one at that: a 'Time-type' Devil Fruit user.
"I should get to know this senior sister later."
He was secretly making plans in his mind.
But at that very moment, he heard Zephyr say casually, "Well, you've come at the right time—I happen to have something to discuss with you."
"Um?"
Upon hearing this, Roy was somewhat surprised: "What is it?"
Recently, due to the upcoming military exercises, Zephyr has even stopped his daily Blackbody Flow training in order to fully prepare for the exercises, and he is rarely called upon for anything.
"Yeah, it's Bilos and Garp. No, it's mainly that old geezer Garp."
"Lieutenant General Garp?"
Upon hearing this, Roy was even more surprised.
"Yes, it was about you and Hanafuda last time."
Zefa didn't hide anything and quickly told everyone what had happened.
That's right. When Roy defeated Hanafuda, Zephyr, Garp, and Bilos were all in Sengoku's office.
At that time, Bilos and Garp jokingly expressed their desire to have their grandson train with Zeff for a while. After Zeff refused, they turned to Roy for training instead.
But Bilos wasn't in a hurry—he planned to talk to Roy about it in person when he retired.
But Garp is different.
"That old guy went to the East China Sea on his own a few days ago, saying he wanted to bring his grandson to headquarters."
Zephyr covered his face, the sound of Garp's energetic and infuriating laughter still echoing in his mind.
"Hahaha! It just so happens that your disciple will be participating in this military exercise. This will be a good opportunity to let Luffy see what's what, so he won't keep talking about wanting to be a pirate!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zephyr saw Roy's expression suddenly stiffen.
"Teacher, do you mean Lieutenant General Garp has already set off?"
"They set off a few days ago and are probably returning by now—after all, Sengoku issued a military order that he must return before the three armies' military exercises."
Seeing Roy's stiff expression, Zephyr assumed he was nervous or annoyed by the trouble, so he added, "You don't need to worry too much. I heard that Garp's grandson is just as stubborn as him and might not be willing to come with him."
At this point, Zefa's expression softened with a smile.
That old bastard Garp, his son became a revolutionary, and now his grandson wants to be a pirate.
That's like his disciple Zephyr—but now he's the Navy's supernova, a symbol of justice.
No, that's not the issue.
But at this moment, Roy's heart was filled with turmoil.
While Garp's desire for him to train Luffy was surprising in itself, it was ultimately a minor matter—he had actually been quite interested in meeting the reincarnation of Nika.
But the key issue is...
In his original estimate, the navy's top fighters would gather at headquarters around the time of the three-army exercise.
So not long ago, after Pig went to the coordinates left by the Revolutionary Army, took the materials for refining Pluto Alloy and 10 billion Berries, he set off again for Windmill Village.
After all, if he could, Luffy would definitely want to get his hands on the Nika Fruit.
But now, Zephyr tells him...
"That Garp is actually in the East Blue right now, and he just returned from Windmill Village?!"
Therefore, a bad feeling arose in Roy's heart.
"It can't be that much of a coincidence!"
