Pirate: Role-Playing System

Chapter 35: Training Content of Rear Admiral Saitama (First update, please collect fresh flowers and votes)

Chasing Uchiha Madara?

Of course, it's not actually chasing him. We don't even know where Uchiha Madara is, and he's not even a dedicated pirate. Why bother chasing him?

But that doesn't mean we can't use that title.

Back in the day, Garp chased after Pirate King Roger for several years and eventually forced him to become the Pirate King.

But so what?

Although none of Roger's crew members were killed by Garp, he did kill a bunch of random small pirates around him!

Just having the reputation of chasing Roger is enough. In reality, we should just focus on fighting pirates.

Besides, this incident has caused a huge uproar. Uchiha Madara's news is already appearing in the newspapers, and the Marines must respond to this.

The answer given by the battle results is to form a special unit to chase Uchiha Madara!

We, the Marines, firmly believe that justice will prevail. No matter how strong Uchiha Madara is, it won't stop us from pursuing him.

Whether we can kill him or not is a matter of ability.

Whether we chase him or not is a matter of determination.

Sengoku made this distinction very clear.

It's just this order...

Saitama's mouth twitched, and he finally said, "Alright, I'll do my best..."

...

As expected, the news about Uchiha Madara quickly appeared in the newspapers.

Defeating three Admirals together? Attacking Vice Admirals with clones? Escaping from Marine's massive encirclement?

This news instantly caused a sensation throughout the Grand Line. If Uchiha Madara's fame hadn't spread so quickly and he wasn't a pirate, someone might have already called him the "second Pirate King."

His bounty also increased significantly, reaching 3 billion berries.

This number is second only to the Four Emperors!

In fact, after Blackbeard became one of the Four Emperors, his bounty was only 2.2476 billion berries.

Uchiha Madara only did two things: killing Celestial Dragons and breaking through Marine's encirclement.

But these two things were enough to greatly increase his reputation!

And in response to this, the Marines...

Saitama!

They forcefully promoted Saitama to Rear Admiral and publicized his strength, even bringing in a bunch of Vice Admirals to speak.

Vice Admiral Wushe: "Saitama is very strong, much stronger than me."

Vice Admiral Steel: "No matter the enemy, they will be defeated with a single punch... It's a pity we don't know his true strength, otherwise we would have arranged for him to join the Admirals and surround Uchiha Madara."

Vice Admiral Oroding: "He saved my life. His justice is the brightest light in that failure!"

Zephyr: "That man is Marine's hope!"

Garp: "I believe he will definitely bring Uchiha Madara to justice, just like how I brought Roger to justice back then!"

Although boasting and flattery make up ninety percent of these statements, it can be said that, except for Zephyr, the others may have some understanding of Saitama's strength, but they definitely don't value him that much.

However, there's a saying, "Repeat a lie a thousand times, and it becomes the truth."

So, under the bombardment of Marine's reports, Zhao Xu, with a bewildered expression, discovered that the sailors on the entire warship would occasionally look at him with worshipful eyes.

And among those who worshiped him the most fervently was...

"Saitama Rear Admiral, how did you become so strong?" Tashigi, with a face full of admiration, asked, "Can you teach me?"

Saitama noticed the fish-eye attention and saw that many marines around him were secretly looking at him as Tashigi spoke.

But...

It's just the perfect stage for a performance!

"Do you want to know?" Saitama's expression suddenly became serious.

Thump! Thump!

The hearts of the marines around him raced.

Tashigi swallowed her saliva. "Yes."

"Well, if you want to know, listen carefully." Saitama calmly said.

The marines around him focused intensely.

For a moment, on the huge warship, there was no sound except for the sound of waves.

Saitama's face was serious, his eyes filled with solemnity. "The key lies in whether you can persist in executing this arduous training plan."

Training?

Not relying on Devil Fruit, but training?

What kind of training is it...

"Listen, Tashigi, the key is perseverance." Saitama slightly closed his eyes. "No matter how difficult it is, you must persevere... It took me three years to reach this level!"

The next second!

Saitama spoke seriously!

"One hundred push-ups, one hundred sit-ups, one hundred squats..."

The expressions of the crowd froze.

"And also a ten-kilometer run, do it every day!"

Tashigi's eyes widened.

"Of course, you can't skip three meals a day, you can eat bananas in the morning, and the focus is on training your willpower, no air conditioning in summer or winter..."

"At first, it's painfully unbearable, and you might want to rest for a day, but if you want to become a powerful hero, no matter how painful it is, you must train every day until you vomit blood..."

"Even if your legs are too heavy to move, you must continue to squat; even if your arms creak, you must continue to do push-ups!"

"I noticed changes in my body after a year and a half, I became bald, but I also became stronger; in other words, you must be willing to sacrifice your hair and train yourself to death, that's the only secret to becoming powerful!"

Saitama said proudly, "Those guys who rely on abilities and mysterious fruits will never reach my level!"

"Relying on oneself to become stronger is the true strength of humans!"

Tashigi looked shocked, and the others had blank and stiff expressions...

What?

Is this how Saitama Rear Admiral became stronger?

"Please don't joke around!" Tashigi couldn't help but speak up. "Saitama Rear Admiral, haven't you seen the Marine's training schedule?"

"Even the weakest recruit undergoes training that exceeds the intensity you mentioned."

"Your training is simply not difficult enough! It's just the average level for ordinary people!"

"What we want to know is the secret to how you became so powerful!"

"Tashigi..." Saitama blinked his dead fish eyes.

"But, this is how I became stronger..."
