Zephyr's report recorded everything about Ares in painstaking detail, written from his own first-hand impressions and perspective.
From the moment he encountered Ares and fought him, not a single detail of his most direct impressions from their many battles had been omitted from the report.
Fleet Admiral Kong read the report word for word. Between the lines, he could sense the shock and... fear that Zephyr had felt at the time.
It was Ares's unimaginable speed of learning and improvement that had shaken Zephyr to his core.
The words that truly revealed Zephyr's feelings struck Kong with tremendous force. Time slipped quietly by as Kong carefully finished reading the thick report.
Tap, tap, tap...
Kong's fingers drummed against the desk. After setting down the document, he remained unable to calm his thoughts for a long time.
His entire mind was filled with the name "Ares." That name appeared more than any other in the report.
"An extremely rare Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit, outstanding talent and learning ability, formidable combat prowess, an unyielding will, and astonishing growth speed."
"Only... fifteen years old."
"Just as Zephyr wrote in his assessment, this guy is a complete and utter monster."
Top-tier combat awareness, Body Arts, the ability to transform into a massive azure dragon through a Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit, unparalleled recovery, abundant stamina, and more.
When it came to Ares's combat power, it seemed impossible to find a single weakness. He was a perfect "monster."
And someone like that was still growing at a shocking speed.
A man like that even gave Fleet Admiral Kong a headache. "Rocks, Newgate, Shiki, Linlin... those people are already troublesome enough. And now there's an Ares as well."
"How did all these monsters end up gathering in the Rocks Pirates? That Rocks bastard really hit the jackpot!"
