"Damn it!"
"Why is trouble appearing in West Blue again and again!"
In the Vice-Admiral office of Marine Headquarters, Doberman looked at a document on the table and listened to the report of his subordinates and couldn't help but yell.
Before, because of Ghost Hand Ross, he was reprimanded by Akainu and was almost driven out of Marine Headquarters to hunt Ross himself. Now only half a month has passed since the Ross incident and a Double Sword Pirate group has emerged.
"Bring a fake one to replace it, those bastards from the G8 branch base!"
After carefully reading the report, Doberman couldn't help but yell at the G8 branch base on Grand Line.
Obviously, although the G8 branch base defeated the Ghost Sword Pirates at that time, they failed to capture the Captain Ghost Sword. Someone caught a fake Ghost Sword in order to get military merits. Now that the matter has been exposed, the other party directly took out the law of evasion, saying that they don't know anything.
In this case, at most, they can be criticized for being played around by pirates and some military merits will be deducted. It is impossible to directly dismiss them and investigate them.
"Vice-Admiral Doberman, what should we do … The Ghost Hand Pirates can't be solved at all unless the Base Captain on the Grand Line leads the team. This Double Sword Pirates is almost impossible to deal with."
A Rear Admiral in charge of monitoring West Blue asked with a difficult look on his face.
"It is impossible to dispatch the Vice-Admiral Base Captain of the Grand Line to West Blue. This will cause problems with the deployment of the Grand Line's forces. Admiral will not agree."
Doberman covered his forehead with a headache. If there was only a Double Sword Pirate group, it would be fine. Now there is a more troublesome Ghost Hand Pirates. He never thought that the West Blue of the four seas would be so difficult to deal with.
Just then, a Rear Admiral next to him suddenly thought of something and whispered: "By the way, Vice-Admiral Doberman, after the Ghost Hand Pirates replaced a new ship in Shipwright Town, their recent course seems to be surprisingly consistent with the Double Sword Pirates …"
"Oh?"
Doberman was slightly startled, thinking of the destruction of both Marines and Pirates wherever Ross went. He couldn't help but show a touch of thought.
"If the Ghost Hand Pirates and the Double Sword Pirates encounter each other, they may fight to the death and both of them will suffer. In that case, there may be a chance … Pass down the order, let the nearest West Blue branch be prepared and monitor their actions at all times. No action is allowed without orders!"
"Yes!"
The major general acknowledged and retreated.
…
Ghost Shadow Ship, cultivation room.
More than a dozen heavy sandbags of different sizes were hanging there and swinging constantly. Ross closed his eyes, but as if he could see in all directions, he avoided every sandbag with great precision.
It has been more than half a month since the completion of the Ghost Shadow Ship. In this period of more than half a month, Ross's Observation Haki has been thoroughly mastered. In the Talent System Interface, the branches of Observation Haki have also become golden.
Today, he shuttled through more than a dozen sandbags as easy as eating and drinking water. Even if there was a hail of bullets, he could walk on the ground with his Observation Haki.
Besides that.
Ross has not put down the physical strengthening exercise and the exercise of Devil Fruit ability. Both Distortion Fruit and physical strength have been slightly improved and the scope of the power of distortion has become larger.
Distortion Fruit, this Devil Fruit, from the talent tree of the talent system alone, seems to have the ability to develop in countless directions, but the actual operation is not so simple.
Ross tried to develop the ability of Gravity Distortion in advance without the promotion of the system, but the result was a failure. The power of distortion can't touch the illusory gravity at all.
Obviously, it is extremely difficult to transfer from the Distortion of matter to the Distortion of illusory power. Without the Talent System, it is likely that it will not be possible at all. Just like Whitebeard's Tremor-Tremor Fruit (Gura Gura no Mi), no matter how powerful it is, it can't shatter real space and time, only the atmosphere is shattered.
But.
In the direction of Distortion sound, Ross has made a little progress, because sound is still a little more traceable than gravity.
"Almost there."
Ross exercised for a while in the swinging sandbag, then walked out of it and came to the corner of the room, carrying a few extremely heavy weights on his back and began to do simple push-ups and squats.
He had previously considered using Seastone for training, but he forgot to collect Seastone sticks and bullets when he destroyed Capone Bege. Later, it became very troublesome to buy them again. He passed through the underground black market of several islands and was not able to buy them.
Hoo! Hoo!
In the constant ups and downs, Ross, who was naked on his upper body, began to sweat, constantly dripping on the cold floor.
The load he is carrying is a very special mineral material in this world. It is very strong, but its weight is higher than steel. A small piece is as heavy as a large piece of steel.
With his current physical fitness, carrying a large piece of this load is also very effective for exercise.
"131, 132 …"
Ross kept counting silently in his heart.
Half an hour later.
After a thousand push-ups, Ross got up and drank some water. After resting for ten minutes, he began to practice a thousand squats. His physical training is one group at a time, a group of one thousand.
When a thousand squats were done, even with his current physical fitness, he was a little out of breath, so after a little rest, he took a shower and suspended his practice.
Leaving the practice room, Ross went to the upper deck.
Robin was sitting on one side of the deck, reading elegantly, while the ship's handymen were busy cleaning the ship's deck, not daring to be lazy.
"Water Gold Sea is in front of us. It's a day's journey at most."
Ross came to the place where Robin was sitting, took out the compass and sea chart and put them on the table. After measuring for a moment, he judged the current position and looked at Robin and asked:
"What's the situation of the island here?"
"According to the information collected, the Water Gold sea is a chaotic sea. There is no country. There are a total of 21 islands, one of which is a large island, six are medium-sized islands, and the other 14 are small islands."
Robin stated the information she had collected about the Water Gold sea one by one, and combined with Ross's sea map judgment, they quickly determined the location of each island.
Ross bypassed a small island in front of him and pointed to a medium-sized island in the rear. "We don't have to go to this small island with only one small town. We can go directly here … This kind of chaotic sea without a country, the underground forces are complex, and the information is easier to get."
Robin nodded.
Two days later, the Ghost Shadow Ship arrived at the designated island and anchored near a remote cliff. Ross and Robin landed on the island together to collect information.
