Rob Lucci Has Mastered His Skills and Is Ready to Set Out!

Marines Second Division, Marineford.

Living area, Teacher Zephyr's courtyard.

At this moment, Zephyr was sitting under the pine tree, holding today's Marines internal publication, and learning about the interesting things that had happened recently with great interest.

Beside him was a small desk, where Trafalgar Law was hunched over, writing furiously, occasionally glancing at the stack of books that was taller than himself.

These books look very profound, such as "Human Anatomy", "Organ Science", "Detailed Explanation of Blood", etc., which are obviously all medical books.

These books were all borrowed by Teacher Zephyr from the Marines Medical School to train Trafalgar Law.

That's right. While the Op-Op Fruit is powerful, truly developing its full potential and combining its medical applications with combat requires a deep understanding of medicine.

Trafalgar Law, on the other hand, came from a medical family in Flevance. His father, his mother, and even his grandparents were all doctors, and highly skilled ones at that.

Trafalgar Law received relevant education and training at a very young age. He once studied his Lead-Platinum Disease by reading various books and thus determined his lifespan, which shows that he was very talented in this area.

However, when he was with the Donquixote Family, this kid didn't develop in this direction, Doflamingo didn't pay much attention to it either.

Now, Trafalgar Law has been left in the Marines Headquarters to study under Teacher Zephyr, who taught him according to his own aptitude.

After putting away the internal publication in his hand, Teacher Zephyr glanced at Trafalgar Law, who was studying diligently, and said with a mixture of relief and concern, "You need to balance work and rest. You've already had a full day of classes with those teachers. There's no need to push yourself so hard. You need to get enough rest so you can absorb knowledge better, Law."

"I understand, Grandpa Zephyr," Luo replied, but continued to absorb knowledge without looking up. He added, "But I'm not tired yet. I won't be tired for the next two years. I must cure my sister and my illness. Time won't wait for me!"

Upon hearing this, Teacher Zephyr sighed softly and said with a hint of helplessness, "I don't know much about this kind of thing, so I can't help you much. But if you need anything, just let me know, and I will do my best to meet your needs."

Zephyr is good at teaching others how to beat people up, but he has absolutely no idea how to save someone.

Goodness, this is the Marines's main camp. The Marines has a very well-established system that has been around for hundreds of years and has abundant resources. Although Zephyr himself cannot teach, he can find a large number of experienced doctors to teach Law.

This is the advantage of the Marines!

"Grandpa Zephyr!" Luo thanked Zephyr earnestly before continuing his studies.

Just then, footsteps sounded outside the courtyard gate, and then Rob Lucci, who looked somewhat aloof but handsome, walked in.

Although Lucci still had a somewhat immature air about him at this time, his youthful spirit was already very evident.

We can no longer treat them like children.

Today, Lucci acted like a little adult, dressed in a well-fitting black suit and carrying some fruit. As he entered, a smile naturally appeared on his usually cool face as he said, "Teacher Zephyr, would you like some oranges?"

After a brief pause, he added, "Luo, why don't you take a short rest too?"

"No need, Lucci, I'll rest later," Luo said without looking up.

Seeing this, Lucci felt somewhat helpless and looked at Teacher Zephyr, saying, "His diligence makes me feel ashamed of myself."

Teacher Zephyr chuckled and said, "You used to be just like him, always shouting that you wanted to become stronger and grow up faster so that you could catch up with that guy Ortolan in the New World."

After a slight pause, Zephyr looked at Lucci and asked, "Are the results out yet?"

"Yes, I've earned all the credits I need. Tomorrow, the school teachers will compile all my grades and send them to you. If you approve them, I can graduate," Lucci said with a hint of anticipation.

Nowadays, although Zephyr still works on the front lines of education, the former Officer Training Camp has evolved into a school. Naturally, he can no longer be the only teacher. As the principal, he is more involved in the school's operations.

"So you're definitely not willing to wait any longer this year, right?" Zephyr asked Lucci with a hint of reluctance.

Lucci handed a peeled orange to Zephyr, squatted down beside Zephyr, and without looking Zephyr in the eye, said in a very calm tone, "Teacher, I am ready. You once said that our Marines is a sharp blade forged in iron and blood. Now, it is time for me, this embryo, to face that iron and blood..."

Lucci was exceptionally talented and grew up with top-tier resources in the Marines.

His current condition is much better than when he was trained in the original CP Agency.

Zephyr brought so many people around him and gave him the best education from a young age. Now, Lucci is not only proficient in martial arts, but also has a complete mastery of Armament Haki and Observation Haki Haki. He is also very skilled in various fighting techniques.

In several armed conflicts at the school, they achieved excellent results.

It could even be said that his existence overshadowed the previous champions.

The reason those people became top students is no longer because they were the best in the academy, but because Lucci couldn't graduate!

That's why they were chosen as the leaders!

Zephyr took the orange, ruffled Lucci's hair, and said, "Looks like I'm getting old. I've seen off quite a few students before, but seeing you here again, I really miss you..."

Upon hearing this, Lucci's eyes welled up slightly, but he managed to control his emotions in time. This was an essential quality he had to cultivate to become an outstanding naval Marines.

As for why Teacher Zephyr was so reluctant to part with him, Lucci knew perfectly well. He had lived with Zephyr all along and could be said to have been raised by Zephyr from a young age.

The two are nominally master and apprentice, but in reality they are like grandfather and grandson.

After a moment of silence, Zephyr seemed to have made up his mind and said, "Since you have made up your mind, I can no longer stop you with excuses like you are still young. So... tomorrow I will grant you the rank of Marine Headquarters Colonel Captain, and officially make you a member of our Marines."

Upon Lucci's expression brightened, and he looked up at Teacher Zephyr, saying happily, "Thank you, Professor!"

To be honest, although Lucci has not officially become Marines yet, he believes that his strength is no less than that of some of the Rear Admiral at the Marine Headquarters.

Let alone Rear Admiral, even though he couldn't beat him, if it were Vice Admiral in front of him, he would dare to go up and spar a bit.

Furthermore, Lucci believed that all his accumulated knowledge and skills would quickly transform into his strength once he came into contact with real war, the real front lines, and real iron and blood!

He only lacks practical experience; his basic skills are more than sufficient.

Once he has two real combat experiences, Lucci believes that even an Elite Vice Admiral in the Marines is someone he can surpass!

His dream is to become the right-hand man of Marine Admiral Ben Ortolan in the future!

"A few days ago, the Ortolan Science Unit sent you something, saying it was a gift for you..." Teacher Zephyr said as he got up and went inside.

Lucci didn't follow; instead, he stayed here, watching Trafalgar Law learn and waiting.

Before long, Teacher Zephyr produced a Devil Fruit in each hand.

He placed the two Devil Fruits on his small table and said to Lucci, "You know this Devil Fruit, right? When Ortolan came last time, he gave you a gift—it was Zoan type Cat-Cat Fruit, an Ancient type Zoan named Cave Lion... This fruit was brought by Borsalino when he came..."

"What kind of ability is this?" Lucci asked curiously.

"It's the Mythical Zoan you've been dreaming of..." Zephyr chuckled. "You haven't eaten that Ancient type yet, isn't it because you thought it might affect your Ancient type? Ortolan has finally found you Mythical Zoan... This is Zoan type - Bat-Bat Fruit, Mythical Zoan, Vampire Mode. Do you want it?"

"Yes!" Lucci nodded without hesitation.

He never felt polite or embarrassed. He always accepted all of Teacher Zephyr's and Ortolan's gifts without hesitation.

He knew very well that he had entrusted his life to the two of them from the bottom of his heart.

So there's no need to be polite. He will become Teacher Zephyr's new pride and a sharp blade in the Admiral's hand!

After handing the Devil Fruit to Lucci, Zephyr patted him on the shoulder and encouraged him with a smile, "Go! Go and sail this great sea! Become my pride, become the pride of Ortolan, and become the pride of our Marines, Rob Lucci!"

Lucci took the fruit, his expression serious and earnest, and said, "I will definitely not let you down, Teacher Zephyr!"
