The Mysterious Zero Division Captain, Ye Yu

In the New World, upon the surging sea, a massive pirate ship sailed onward. Its pirate flag bore the image of a skull with a white crescent-shaped mustache!

It was the flagship of the strongest pirate crew in the world, the Whitebeard Pirates: the Moby Dick!

On deck, all the elite captains of the Whitebeard Pirates had gathered together, quietly discussing something. The atmosphere aboard the entire ship was somewhat tense.

Marco, captain of the first division, looked at the solemn Whitebeard and was the first to speak in confusion.

"Pops, what happened? Even you, who are always so optimistic, have become this serious?"

The elite captains aboard the ship all turned to look at Whitebeard as well.

Ever since his old rival Roger had been executed, the Whitebeard Pirates had not issued a summons in a very long time!

This gave the Whitebeard Pirates captains, who usually operated alone out at sea, a bad feeling.

Whitebeard looked at everyone and let out a deep sigh!

For some time now, Ace had been out of contact. Then, this very morning, Whitebeard's informants had finally found Ace's whereabouts.

Ace had actually been defeated by Blackbeard and handed over to the Marines by Blackbeard!!!

After Whitebeard told everyone this terrible news,

the Whitebeard Pirates erupted completely!

"First Thatch, and now even Ace fell into Blackbeard's hands?"

"Damn Blackbeard Teach! He actually shamelessly collaborated with the Marines? What a sinister bastard!"

"That guy violated our ironclad rules. He has to die!"

"That's right, Pops! Let me go kill Teach!"

"Yeah, Pops, count me in! I'll personally clean house for you and butcher that bastard Blackbeard!"

One after another, they revealed cold, murderous looks and swore they would kill Teach, that scum!

Whitebeard shook his head again and clenched his fist, his powerful voice ringing out.

"My sons, Teach has hidden himself too well. If you go, I'm afraid you'll end up just like Ace!"

"Given the current situation, even if one of you can defeat Teach, who can guarantee that after Teach joins forces with the Marines, you won't be captured by an Admiral?"

The captains fell silent for a while, though their faces still showed their unwillingness to accept it.

Marco was unwilling to accept it too. Ace and Thatch were his good brothers. This revenge had to be taken!

"Pops, how about I go kill Blackbeard Teach?" Marco was eager to act, cold killing intent flashing through his eyes.

"Marco, I know you're strong, but there's someone better suited for this aboard our ship!" Whitebeard said, patting Marco's shoulder.

"A better choice than Marco?" The Whitebeard Pirates captains looked stunned. Other than Pops, who in the Whitebeard Pirates could possibly be stronger than Marco?

Whitebeard's expression gradually relaxed, and the bold bearing of an Emperor resurfaced.

"What? Have you forgotten that our ship has a Zero Division Captain?"

Zero Division Captain?

At Whitebeard's words, everyone understood at once.

The Whitebeard Pirates did have a Zero Division Captain named Ye Yu. However, he was extremely mysterious. They had only heard of him and had never seen him!

All they knew was that the Zero Division Captain had always cultivated in a forbidden zone under Whitebeard's command. Every day, someone brought him delicious food and fine wine. Unless something important happened, he would not leave his seclusion!

No wonder Pops had gone out in a small boat early this morning. Had he gone to bring back the Zero Division Captain?

Now, this mysterious Zero Division Captain was finally going to emerge from seclusion! The captains were instantly intrigued, each of them waiting for Ye Yu's arrival!

"I'm guessing this Ye Yu must be an old man about Pops's age!"

"Yeah, if Pops chose him as Zero Division Captain, he has to be at least stronger than Rayleigh, right? That kind of strength can't be achieved without decades of cultivation!"

"Come to think of it, this Zero Division Captain has been cultivating in our forbidden zone all these years. With no one disturbing him, he might even be stronger than Pops now! Hahaha!"

Just as everyone was discussing it, someone slowly walked out of Whitebeard's room.

He was less than twenty years old, with a fresh-faced appearance, a loose T-shirt, flip-flops, and a cola and hamburger in his hands, which he was wolfing down.

Ye Yu surveyed his surroundings.

I told Whitebeard long ago to watch out for Blackbeard, but Whitebeard trusted his sons too much and simply wouldn't listen...

Now I had no choice but to leave seclusion. What a pain.

Seeing Ye Yu, everyone was stunned and bewildered.

"What the hell?! He's that young?"

"He doesn't look like he has the makings of a powerhouse at all..."

"Pops, are you sure he's the Zero Division Captain?"

At that moment, Ye Yu narrowed his eyes as he looked over these One Piece characters, falling into recollection.

Ten years ago, he had transmigrated into the world of pirates. As a transmigrator, Ye Yu had awakened the Overlord System. By checking in or completing missions, he could obtain Conqueror's Haki.

Once his Conqueror's Haki reached a certain value, he could also receive additional rewards such as Devil Fruits!

When he had first arrived ten years ago, he received one thousand points of Conqueror's Haki from the beginner's gift pack and happened to encounter Whitebeard. When he clashed with Whitebeard in Conqueror's Haki, they had been evenly matched!

Not yet ten years old, yet his Conqueror's Haki was comparable to Whitebeard's! Whitebeard had acted as if he had discovered a new continent and insisted on making him the Zero Division Captain.

At first, given Ye Yu's laid-back nature, he had not wanted to agree. But after seeing the conditions Whitebeard offered, Ye Yu was tempted.

Whitebeard would grant him a piece of land and send him delicious food, fine wine, a Television Snail, a Game Snail, manga, and everything else he needed every day.

No one would be allowed to disturb him, allowing him to cultivate in peace. Only when Whitebeard encountered an unsolvable problem would he have to emerge from seclusion!

Ten years had passed, and only Ye Yu knew that he had not cultivated for shit!

Every day, he had merely played games, fished, enjoyed the breeze, watched television, and eaten hot pot... He just fucking hadn't cultivated!!!

Yet... just by checking in once a day through the system, he could receive one point of Conqueror's Haki. In ten years, he had actually gained 3,650 points of Conqueror's Haki!

Adding the beginner's gift pack, his Haki points had already reached 4,650!

His Conqueror's Haki had long since ceased to be on the same level as everyone else's!

It was not merely useful for clearing out fodder. Ye Yu's Conqueror's Haki could now both attack and defend, and its attacks could even deal damage stronger than Conqueror's Coating!

What pleased Ye Yu most was that, unlike Armament Haki attacks, he did not need to move or perform techniques...

He could completely rely on his imagination to mobilize the Conqueror's Haki within his body, using it for all kinds of attacks and defenses!

Just as Ye Yu was happily immersed in the fact that he had gained some pretty good abilities, the noisy voices of the Whitebeard Pirates interrupted his recollection.

"Pops, this is the powerhouse you always talk about?" Diamond Jozu asked with a suspicious look.

"Pops, don't tell me you're planning to send this kid to kill Blackbeard..." Vista shook his head helplessly.

"Pops, were you scammed? No matter how I look at this kid, he's just an ordinary young man under twenty," Marco said with a strange expression and a bitter smile.

"Yeah! Yeah!" The people around them echoed him. Clearly, they were doubtful of this Zero Division Captain's strength.

It was not that they were jealous of the Zero Division Captain position. The Whitebeard Pirates captains were all quite friendly; they mainly wanted to compete for the mission of killing Teach!

If Ye Yu were stronger than them, that would be one thing. But Ye Yu gave them the impression that he was nothing more than a pirate couch potato with no combat ability...

Looks like they had completely underestimated him...

Whitebeard patted Ye Yu's shoulder with his huge palm, a crafty glint appearing in his eyes.

"Ye Yu, I doubt they'll believe me even if I tell them you're strong. How about... you show them something?"

Ye Yu rolled his eyes. He knew this old man had been curious all these years about how much his combat strength had improved!

"Fine~" Ye Yu said helplessly, taking a bite of his hamburger and shaking his head.

To make his position as Zero Division Captain more secure and ensure fewer captains challenged him and disturbed him in the future, Ye Yu decided that today, he would show these captains what a true powerhouse was!
