Marching into Navy Headquarters

Hearing this, Ryan was thunderstruck!

Vice Admiral Garp's chosen person?!

No wonder that kid was so arrogant and domineering; there was a reason for it.

What exactly have I done!

As Ryan clutched his head in frustration, T Bone stood up and patted him on the shoulder, "Leiyin was also in the wrong in this matter. Please forgive him."

Hearing T Bone say this, Ryan was immediately dumbfounded, "No, no, it's my fault. I was blind and didn't recognize his worth. I'll go apologize to Mr. Leiyin immediately."

Hearing that he was Garp's man, Ryan turned cowardly in an instant.

T Bone smiled, "There's no need to apologize. Leiyin and I are about to leave Rogue Town."

"Huh?"

T Bone used a Den Den Mushi to tell Garp about the situation here, and Garp just laughed heartily when he heard it.

T Bone knew that with Garp's personality, he wouldn't blame Leiyin at all, but would instead take notice of him. Because Garp himself was a very reckless guy; otherwise, he wouldn't have the son of the Revolutionary Army's leader and a grandson who shouted about wanting to be the Pirate King all day long. In other words, Garp also liked powerful people.

Moreover, if you think about it carefully, the fault was not with Leiyin at all. The initial events were triggered when Leiyin beat up Sergeant Beck to protect a little girl, which led to a series of retaliatory actions later. From this point of view, Leiyin's nature wasn't so bad.

Garp didn't deny this kind of behavior—confronting a dishonest army for a little girl he didn't even know.

A day later, T Bone found Leiyin, explained his intentions, and then took out a Den Den Mushi from his pocket and dialed Garp's number.

As soon as Leiyin took the Den Den Mushi, the other end of the line said, "Boy, I heard you've been quite restless in Rogue Town."

"Those guys deserved it. They bullied me, so I could only teach them a lesson."

Garp: "Haha, you're really reckless, kid. You don't act like a Navy at all."

"By the way, old man, Captain T Bone came to me and told me you had something to say?"

"Oh, that's right. I don't think you're suitable to stay there anymore, so come to Marineford, Navy Headquarters with T Bone."

Huh?

Leiyin, who had been looking lazy, couldn't help but widen his eyes when he heard this. He looked at T Bone, who nodded at him.

"Isn't this a little fast..." Leiyin scratched his head.

Garp: "What? You don't want to?"

"It's not that..."

Although Leiyin's tone was indifferent, he was a little happy inside. Arriving at Marineford, Navy Headquarters, he could freely enter the New World. At that time, he could see the world's most powerful combat forces: the Three Admirals, the Four Emperors, and the Shichibukai.

"Then when do we leave?"

"If you're willing, we can go tomorrow..."

After some simple preparations, the next day, as the sky was just beginning to show some light, Leiyin and T Bone set off with some Navy soldiers on a small warship.

Even while the warship was moving, Leiyin didn't forget to cultivate himself.

Now Leiyin has mastered the C-rank Ninjutsu [Wind Style: Great Breakthrough]. Now, he is gathering a blue cyclone in his hand, which is exactly the [Rasengan]. At this time, he is about to inject [Wind Style] Chakra into it, trying to use that S-rank technique...

Bang!

Suddenly, a loud noise diverted Leiyin's attention.

"N-Not good! A Sea Beast!"

"Captain T Bone, a Sea Beast is ramming the warship!"

Near the bow of the ship, several soldiers shouted in panic.

Hearing this, T Bone drew the sword from his waist and immediately rushed to the bow of the ship. Upon closer inspection, it was a large Tiger Shark, about twelve meters long, ramming the warship.

"At this rate, the ship will be overturned!"

The Navy soldiers looked at the Tiger Shark's wanton actions in a panic, but they were all at a loss.

"What are you panicking about! Do you even look like Navy soldiers?!"

T Bone shouted angrily, and the soldiers became even more silent.

Actually, these Navy soldiers couldn't be blamed. There were only about thirty people on the warship, all ordinary soldiers with the same combat power as ordinary people. How could they be a match for a twelve-meter-long shark?

It was still Captain T Bone who waved his sword and directly slashed at the Tiger Shark.

"Right Angle Flash - T Bone Empty Cut!"

He drew a sword aura in the void, and a right-angled flash of sword aura flew straight towards the Tiger Shark, cutting a large opening in its skin. The Tiger Shark writhed and wailed on the sea surface in pain, and soon slowly sank into the sea. The blood that had flowed out earlier had dyed the nearby sea water blood red.

The large Tiger Shark was killed with one blow. T Bone put his sword back into its sheath with a flourish. He stood on the bow of the ship, his Navy coat blowing in the wind, looking very impressive.

"He took down the Tiger Shark with one sword..."

"We simply couldn't handle that kind of thing."

"A-As expected of Captain T Bone..."

On the deck, the Navy soldiers kept praising and marveling at him.

Standing not far away, Leiyin saw all of this. Seeing T Bone easily resolve the shark, he prepared to go back to continue his cultivation.

But.

Barely half a minute had passed when the ship was thrown into turmoil once more.

This time, the commotion was even greater than before.

"This is bad!"

"More large Tiger Sharks!"

"More than one!"

The soldiers all drew their swords and guns, their hearts leaping into their throats.

Looking out, the sea around the warship was dotted with black fins, and the soldiers, seeing these fins, felt as if they were being summoned by the Grim Reaper.

This warship only had two small-caliber cannons, and if they were fired, their weak firepower would do nothing but further enrage the sharks and invite a more violent counterattack.

Originally, this ship was simply meant to take Leiyin to the Navy headquarters; it wasn't on any mission or going to war with Pirates. Who would have thought they'd encounter something like this?

"How can there be so many large Tiger Sharks?"

"We... we seem to be surrounded!"

Indeed, the fins around the warship gradually rose higher, and terrifying shark faces emerged. All the Navy soldiers, seeing these faces, gripped their guns tightly in extreme fear, not daring to fire a single shot.

One slightly smaller Tiger Shark jumped directly onto the deck from the right side of the warship, snatched up a soldier, and jumped into the sea on the left. Because the Tiger Shark's teeth were extremely sharp, it bit the soldier's body in half. The unlucky soldier's upper body fell onto the deck, still twitching.
