One Piece: Divine Bird Phoenix

"Grandpa is really too ridiculous," An was the first to speak to break the weird atmosphere.

"Ah, that's how Garp is, you'll get used to it," Aokiji explained for Garp.

"But that's why I started following Garp since I was young."

"Even as an admiral, I still admire Garp's style of doing things."

"Really!" An chuckled, "I guess it's hard for me to adapt to this kind of personality."

After a short conversation, An came to the abandoned warship.

"It's time to start training," An took a deep breath, planted his feet firmly, raised his arms, and gathered strength in his fists.

An did not hide his strength.

"After all, this is about the training of my own iron fist."

He swung his fist with all his strength and hit the hard shell of the warship.

Bang, bang, bang...

A dull sound rang out in the empty abandoned shipyard.

As an admiral, Kuzan's perception of power can be said to be very sensitive.

"Ah, this power seems to be different from what Marshal Zhan Guo said," Kuzan thought to himself.

He raised his body slightly, pulled down his blindfold, and An, who was hitting the warship, appeared in Kuzan's eyes.

The warship was hit by An's iron fist and made a clattering sound.

The broken parts on the warship kept falling, making a ding-dong sound.

He looked at An's fist and found that An's fist was not injured at all.

Recalling his injured hands when he practiced before, Kuzan exclaimed, "Ah, the newcomers nowadays are really exaggerated."

An ignored Kuzan's admiration and devoted himself to training.

When he threw the first punch just now, An had a strange feeling in his heart.

It seemed that as long as he hit a certain point, he could blow up the warship with one punch.

Seeing that An ignored him, Kuzan put on the blindfold and lay down again.

But this time, Kuzan was not sleeping, but thinking about what "justice" was.

With what he saw and heard in the navy, Kuzan became more and more confused about justice.

The iron fist swung out again and again, and a deep concave hole was punched in the special shell of the warship.

But An couldn't find the point he felt.

If Garp was here, he could answer this question for An.

"In fact, the point that An felt does not exist on the real warship."

"It is a kind of rhythm, or the fluctuation of all things."

"Just like a swordsman feels the breath of all things and can cut through steel."

"If An masters this rhythm, he can cause great damage to the enemy."

"This is why Garp is feared by the world."

Because being hit by Garp's iron fist is not as simple as pain.

The power brought by the rhythm will cause great damage to the inside of the pirate's body and leave hidden injuries.

...

The fist kept swinging, and the warship trembled violently.

I don't know how long it took, An's punching speed slowed down until it finally stopped.

Looking closely, the huge warship had been punched with a big hole by An.

The abandoned shipyard became silent.

"Ah, la la la, it's terrible. It's only been a short time since you finished the task assigned by Mr. Garp."

I don't know when Kuzan came to An's side.

Looking at the broken warship, Kuzan recalled in his heart: "I remember it took me three weeks to beat the warship into this state."

And the girl in front of him only took an afternoon.

Hearing Kuzan's voice, An shook her head and said, "It's not finished yet."

Huh? How could it be, didn't you already punch it through?

Grandpa said "blow it up."

"Blow it up?"

The smart Kuzan immediately understood the difference.

Ah, la la la, it's impossible to blow it up!

Even if Hawkeye comes, he can only cut it into pieces, Kuzan said thoughtfully.

No! An decisively rejected Kuzan's answer and immediately spoke firmly.

"I can feel it, I can blow it up, but I can't find the key point."

"Point?"

Kuzan looked down at An, and a thought came to his mind, "You are worthy of being the successor designated by Teacher Karp."

"At least I never had this feeling when I practiced before."

Kuzan looked at An who was thinking and gave his own suggestions.

"Ah la la la, I remember hearing Adjutant Bogart say that."

"If a swordsman wants to break through to the realm of swordsman, it seems that he needs to feel the breath of all things and gain the strength to cut through steel just like you."

"Stop! Wait!"

An interrupted Kuzan's speech directly and asked, "What did you say you felt just now?"

Kuzan didn't mind being interrupted by An, and replied, "The breath of all things?"

The five words "the breath of all things" hit An's soul directly.

"That's right! That's it," An said excitedly.

"Just like everything has its own breath, everything also has its own fluctuations."

"An calls this fluctuation rhythm."

"As long as I can feel the rhythm of everything."

"Then I can find the point of the warship."

"So that my power can resonate with the warship."

"Make the power burst out from the inside of the warship, so that it is the real meaning of "blow it up"!

After thinking, An stood in front of the warship.

He concentrated his observation color and began to try to sense the rhythm of the warship.

Although the principle sounds simple, it is actually difficult to do it.

"It's different from the swordsman who senses the breath of all things and cuts off their connection to achieve the effect of cutting off."

"If An wants to blow up the warship, he needs to find the rhythm point that is the same as his attack, so as to trigger an internal explosion."

"The difficulty of the two is not on the same level."

...

Time passed little by little, and An still got nothing.

The sun sets and the moon rises, light and darkness alternate, and twenty days have passed in the blink of an eye.

During these twenty days, An did not move at all, and his observation color was fully activated, constantly feeling the rhythm of the warship.

Even though An's physique is strong, he has begun to be overwhelmed.

Kuzan has not left An for twenty days, and has been diligently protecting An's safety.

The sun rises from the sea level, and the dazzling light shines on An and the warship.

An and the warship emit a trace of ripples that are invisible to the naked eye.

The two converge and form a light spot under the light.

"Dim and shining."

Found it!

Now!

An shouted loudly, and the sound penetrated the entire abandoned shipyard and spread outward.

The light fist swung out, carrying the power of the Security Department, and collided with the light spot.

Crack!

A cracking sound rang out!

A moment later, the entire warship exploded from the inside out.

The huge sound was clearly visible to the trainees in the training camp.

The warship exploded, and An continued to swing his fist.

Kuzan looked at the flying fragments of the warship.

"I thought to myself, is this the power that I haven't comprehended?"

He looked down at An, and he knew that the future achievements of this little junior sister would never be lower than his own.

...

The attic of the Navy Headquarters.

Hearing the huge sound, the middle and high-level generals of the Navy who stayed in the headquarters went out one after another.

The light shot out, and the first to rush to the abandoned shipyard was Admiral Kizaru.

People have already hit his doorstep. If he, the user of the Shining Fruit ability, has not expressed anything.

This month's salary is probably hanging.

The light spots gathered, and Kizaru's tall and wretched figure appeared.

"How scary! Kuzan, why are you here?" Kizaru's wretched eyes drooped under the sunglasses.

Then Akainu, Momosabushi, Chatun, Ghost Spider, Flying Squirrel, and other well-known vice admirals in the navy all arrived.

Today, this abandoned shipyard ushered in the most glorious day since its establishment.
