Roy raised his hand and pointed a finger at Lafitte's forehead.
Lafitte instinctively wanted to dodge, but remembering Roy's earlier words, "Don't resist," she forced herself to remain motionless.
My fingertips gently touched the center of my forehead.
boom--!!!
A massive flow of information, like a floodgate opened, surged wildly into Lafitte's mind!
Haki cultivation method!
All the techniques of the Six Powers!
Roy's own understanding and insights into swordsmanship!
And those insights, experiences, and lessons learned during the battles...
Countless images, words, and feelings flashed wildly through his mind, almost bursting his consciousness!
Lafitte trembled all over, his face was deathly pale, and cold sweat poured down his forehead.
But he gritted his teeth and persevered.
I don't know how much time passed--
That flow of information finally stopped.
Roy withdrew his finger and looked at him quietly.
Lafitte slumped onto the deck, panting heavily.
His eyes were filled with shock and fervor.
That knowledge, that experience, those skills...
It was imprinted on his mind so directly!
No learning, no practice, just... mastered it directly?!
What kind of divine power is this?!
"The ship... Captain..."
Lafitte's voice trembled.
"How... how did you do that?!"
Roy waved his hand dismissively.
"One of my abilities."
"It allows me to directly transfer my knowledge and experience into other people's minds."
"However, this method places a considerable psychological burden on the recipient."
"It's only because you have a strong will; someone else might have fainted on the spot."
Lafitte took a deep breath and slowly climbed up from the deck.
He looked at Roy, his eyes blazing with fanaticism.
"Captain..."
"From this day forward, my life, Lafitte's life, belongs to you!"
Roy waved his hand.
Don't make it sound so serious.
"Cultivate diligently and digest those things as soon as possible."
"Even more surprises await you on Hachinosu."
Lafitte nodded solemnly.
"Yes!"
He stood up, returned to the helm, and continued to steer the sailboat.
But those eyes would occasionally glance at Roy, filled with reverence and fanaticism.
Roy stood at the bow of the ship, facing the sea breeze, a faint smile playing on his lips.
Lafitte...
He is indeed a very talented person.
Taking him in is a good deal.
The small sailboat continued its journey, cutting through the waves towards Kami Island.
One day later.
Offshore of Kami Island.
The sun was shining brightly, and a gentle sea breeze was blowing.
A small sailboat is leisurely floating on the sea.
Roy lay on a deckchair on the deck, eyes closed, enjoying a rare moment of leisure.
The sunlight felt warm and comforting on my skin, making me feel drowsy.
Since his transmigration, he had rarely had such a completely relaxed moment.
They were either fighting, training, or handling various affairs on Hachinosu.
It's rare to see someone like this, not thinking about anything, not doing anything, just simply sunbathing.
Roy's lips curled into a faint smile.
After the Telekinesis-Telekinesis Fruit Awakening, the anxiety and obsession with power in his heart finally dissipated.
Instead, there is composure and calmness.
What's meant to come will come.
What's meant to be will be.
It can't be rushed.
He rolled over, found a more comfortable position, and continued sunbathing.
At the helm, Lafitte skillfully maneuvered the sails, glancing occasionally at the chart and the Log Pose.
After a day and a night of sailing, he had completely recovered from the shock of yesterday.
Although the thought of those Haki and Six Powers cultivation methods still stirred his emotions, he knew that now was not the time to cultivate.
He looked up at the sky, then at the distant horizon, and was about to remind Roy that they were almost at Kami Island—
Suddenly, his eyes narrowed.
"Captain!"
Lafitte gave a low shout,
Something's up!
Roy opened his eyes, sat up, and followed his gaze.
In the distance, a pirate ship was speeding towards them, cutting through the waves.
The ship's hull was painted with grotesque skull patterns, and a huge dog's head was drawn on the sail; it was clearly not a friendly vessel.
"Captain, should we avoid it?"
"I asked, "Lafitte asked, his hand already resting on his staff and sword.
Roy stood up, stretched, and lazily watched the pirate ship getting closer and closer.
"Avoid?"
He smiled.
Why avoid it?
Lafitte was taken aback for a moment, then realized what he meant, and a smile appeared on his lips.
Yes, why should we avoid it?
He himself was a monster with a bounty of over 2.5 billion, one of the five emperors of the New World.
The insignificant pirates of the West Blue are nothing more than ants in his eyes.
The pirate ship was getting closer and closer, and the deafening cheers could already be heard from the ship.
"Haha! There's a small sailboat over there!"
"Rob it! See if there's anything valuable inside!"
"I haven't had any meat in ages!"
A group of pirates stood at the bow of the ship, brandishing their swords and spears, shouting excitedly.
The leader was a burly man with a fierce face, a cigar in his mouth, and two Fire Pistol at his waist; he looked like a captain.
"Men, give it your all!"
"Once we've stolen that ship, we'll go to the next island and have some fun!"
"Oh--!!!"
The pirates erupted in thunderous cheers.
However, their cheers soon turned into screams of agony.
because--
On the small sailboat, a young man with short blond hair slowly raised his hand.
Then, the seawater around them suddenly boiled!
boom--!!!
The once calm sea was instantly churned into towering waves!
The seawater seemed to come alive, surging, converging, and rising wildly!
Before everyone's horrified eyes, a giant dragon made of seawater rose from the sea!
That dragon was a thousand meters long!
It is crystal clear and reflects a dazzling light in the sunlight!
The enormous dragon head was raised high, looking down at the small pirate ship below, like a god looking down on an ant!
"What... what is this?!"
"Monster! Monster!"
"Run! Run!!!"
The pirates, who were just moments before incredibly excited, were completely devastated!
Some people slumped on the deck, trembling all over.
Some people knelt down and begged for mercy, tears streaming down their faces.
Some people jumped into the sea and swam desperately towards the distance.
The captain, who was smoking a cigar, stared wide-eyed, not even noticing the cigar fall from his mouth.
"This... this is impossible..."
"What... ability is this...?"
"That's... that's way too much..."
The kilometer-long water dragon hovered quietly in mid-air.
The enormous dragon head slowly descended, its eyes, formed from seawater, seemed to come alive, coldly gazing at the ants below.
Then--
The dragon's head suddenly swooped down!
boom--!!!
The water dragon, like divine punishment, slammed down hard on that pirate ship!
The immense impact instantly tore the ship to pieces!
Those pirates didn't even have time to scream before they were swallowed up by the giant wave!
The sea surface churned violently, whipping up giant waves tens of meters high!
A moment later--
Everything returned to calm.
