Ghost Shark, but in the world of One Piece

Page 13

Gion's mind went blank for a moment. What was going on?

Alice, who looked like a villain, was laughing heartily; Laurentina, who looked like she was about to give birth, was sweating profusely; and then there was that inexplicable scream...

I am an expert in geisha skills and have been a prominent figure in the world of pleasure for over a decade. I have seduced countless pirates. What kind of scene haven't I seen?

But now, she admits that she was ignorant.

"I'm...I'm sorry to bother you." Gion silently took a step back, slowly closed the door, and whispered, "Please keep your voice down."

As if to cover up her embarrassment, Major General Gion quickly returned to the duty room in her high heels.

I must suggest to Sister He tomorrow that we offer physiology courses for new naval recruits.

Wait, Gion-neechan, it's not what you think!

Laurentina stretched out her hand with difficulty, her face showing a mixture of tears and hope.

Through the slowly closing crack in the door, she seemed to catch a glimpse of a blue-haired girl's subtle gaze.

Ai...Ain?

It's over. My lifelong reputation is completely ruined!

Alice, you really deserve to die! Laurentina swung her limp fist.

thump.

Alice instinctively tried to dodge, but ended up stumbling and falling into Laurentina's arms.

"yeah?!"

......

"It's neither formed nor meaningful; go practice some more."

At the main training ground, a routine physical training session.

Seeing the recruits correct their incorrect posture and punching motions, General Zephyr smiled with satisfaction.

"Teacher, I want to practice Haki." Laurentina, who had skipped a grade, noticed that Zephyr was free and couldn't help but raise her hand.

“It’s little Laurentina.” Zephyr scrutinized the girl’s physique, then nodded in satisfaction: “You’ve learned Life Return?”

Upon hearing this, Laurentina focused her attention and skillfully channeled her consciousness into her body.

Amidst the adoring gazes of the new recruits, Laurentina's hair slowly grew longer, reaching from her waist to her calves, looking effortlessly long.

“Not bad.” Zephyr nodded.

The world is not lacking in outstanding people; what is frightening is that those who are more outstanding than you work even harder than you.

The girl in front of us is one of them, and her figure practicing hard during her break is proof of that.

In short, her talent is well-known, and her diligence is undeniable.

"Then practice your Observation Haki." Zephyr grinned like a scoundrel, and after seeing the girl blindfold herself, he put on sunglasses as well.

boom!

Zefa flashed forward and unleashed a powerful punch.

Right side? No, left side?

Laurentina hesitated slightly, and just as she stepped back to the left, a heavy iron fist, carrying explosive power, knocked her down with a single blow.

"Hiss..." The girl gasped, struggled to her feet, and said without hesitation, "Again!"

"Go and sense this sound, go and listen to this aura."

Zefa vanished from his spot once again at a speed too fast for the naked eye to follow, his iron fists whipping up gusts of wind like cannonballs.

Caught off guard, Laurentina was blasted away again, blood trickling from the corner of her mouth. "Again!"

"Hahaha, Laurentina, listen to the wind." Zephyr leaped into the air, his fist slamming down with immense force.

This time it's in front!

Laurentina retreated rapidly, and a deafening roar came from ahead, hurting people's ears.

Did you guess right? Have you finally seen feedback on your two weeks of training?

Laurentina's face lit up with joy.

"Hmph," Zefa grinned. "This time I'm not going to slow down."

Bang! Laurentina was sent flying again.

"Come again!"

That's so cruel.

The navy personnel on the training ground looked reluctant to see her suffer. Not far away, Laurentina's face was covered in blood, and she looked extremely disheveled.

No one likes tragedy; no one likes beautiful things being torn apart.

But the girl's resolute voice prevented them from even considering offering assistance.

"Come again!"

"Calm down, kid!"

boom!

"Come again!"

Through repeated practice sessions, light and shadow gradually emerged from the darkness in Laurentina's mind...

Three months later.

Today is the final live-fire training session.

Led by Teacher Zefa, all members of Elite Class One will conduct a patrol training.

The members include Laurentina, Ain, Alice, Binz...

After the final training session at the main training ground.

“Teacher Zephyr.” Laurentina, looking disheveled after training, stopped in front of Zephyr.

"Is there something you need?" Zefa looked at his most outstanding disciple in recent years with a relaxed expression.

He wasn't in a hurry to go home. No one was waiting for him there; apart from two closed black-and-white photographs, there was only a long silence.

The evening wind gradually turned

It was cool. The radio telephone in the training ground started playing the melody of "Boy's Dream." As the music played, the soldiers returned to their dormitories one after another.

"The new recruits' training ship departs the day after tomorrow. Is it possible to change the route?"

The girl turned her head to the side. Teacher Zephyr's wrinkles were mottled, but his expression was full of gentleness.

"Haha, the training ship's route was decided six months ago." Zephyr laughed like a kind shopkeeper. "It's impossible to change it suddenly."

The evening breeze blew, causing his cloak of justice to billow, and his smile was incredibly relaxed.

What a warm person he is, Laurentina thought quietly.

Among the recruits who were dismissed on the spot, Ain and Alice, not having waited for Laurentina, simply joined in as well.

"Let's not talk about that. What are your plans after training?"

Seeing the new generation approaching, Zefa was visibly much happier. He lit a cigarette, wanting to chat with the children about the future.

What will these children with unlimited potential be like when they receive their ranks in the future? Will they stay at headquarters, or will they only want to guard the world and maintain order in their own region? When they leave, will the evening breeze be as gentle as it is today? Will this song still be playing on the radio then? Will an old man be telling them stories about life?

I really want to see this important day; I feel both excited and sad.

That's just how the teaching profession is, especially for me, the children are everything.

The group walked in the evening breeze, their footsteps not very loud, but Laurentina's hearing had been trained to be beyond that of ordinary people, and she could hear the inappropriate sounds coming from Zephyr.

It was as crisp as an ice cube falling into a glass bottle.

It's probably an asthma pill.

"The future?" The girl smiled and led the group towards the cafeteria. "We'll probably stay under Tina's command for a while, as a training exercise. Once we've gained enough experience, we can go and lead a ship independently..."

The girls chattered away, while Zefa listened quietly, enjoying the brief period of noise.

......

At night, Marineford is no different from any other city, except for the dense searchlights and defensive fortifications in the harbor, and the atmosphere is as lively as ever.

Laurentina returned to her sister's house and, without saying a word, dragged her to an apartment building.

"Dong dong dong."

A moment later, the door opened, and an elderly woman with silver-gray hair peeked out; it was none other than the Navy's Chief of Staff, He.

"It's the Tina sisters, come in quickly." Tsuru smiled elegantly, turned her head and said gently, "Gion, please make some tea, we have guests."

"it is good!"

As Gion's older sister, Tsuru naturally had a residence reserved for her at home.

"What brings you two sisters to me? Is it to help Laurentina's condition?"

One was her own protégé, and the other was her future successor. He seemed very happy and warmly invited them to sit down.

Gion, who was fetching water, smiled gently at the two female sailors. She had a misunderstanding with Laurentina at first, but it was quickly cleared up.

Tina was also unsure of her sister's intention in bringing her along, so she turned the conversation to her sister.

“It’s not treatment, Granny Crane,” Laurentina said anxiously. “It’s important intelligence.”

The girl knew very well that Whitebeard Jr.'s strength was on par with Mihawk's, and Kizaru even commented that he had the power of Whitebeard in his youth.

Although the details of his arrest by Green Bull are unknown, it is true that he defeated 16 Whitebeard captains and cut off Zephyr's arm.

You can't beat someone like that.

There are too many weaknesses in boarding maneuvers. Whether it's a contest of strength or using new recruits as leverage, White Hand has plenty of options.

Then let's call for reinforcements. Fighting an idiot doesn't require any regard for fighting ethics.

Ok?

Important intelligence?

Everyone turned their attention to this.

Laurentina didn't want to tease anyone with her mischievousness, so she simply said, "This time, our training ship will be attacked."

"An attack?" Tina pulled out a Pocky stick, frowning. "Who can defeat Professor Zephyr?"

Major General Gion nodded; there was no doubt about Professor Zephyr's strength.

Lieutenant General Tsuru glanced at the girl's serious expression, held his teacup, pondered for a moment, and then asked:

"Zeffa's illness?"

Teacher Zephyr is sick? Tina and Gion stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

“Yes, Professor Zephyr’s asthma is quite severe.” Laurentina sighed, worriedly adding, “We also have to face an enemy with the strength of a vice-royal.”

"Hmm...we also need to consider the students' safety..."

The air became stagnant for a moment.

Although the veracity of the girl's remarks is uncertain, a little reflection reveals the inherent danger.

"Could you tell me about your source?"

The face, marked with laugh lines, was adorned with blue earrings, adding a touch of seriousness to its otherwise plain appearance.

“It’s my…premonition,” Laurentina said hesitantly. “It’s hard to believe, but it really is a premonition, 98% likely to happen.”

I have a premonition...

Tina and Gion kept quiet and drank their tea in silence.

The matters to be considered can be left to the naval strategist, Tsuru, to decide.

Crane gave Laurentina a serious look, her sharp eyes seeming to see through her skin and into her soul.

The girl unconsciously swallowed.
