The loud laughter tore through the storm and reached Xia Le's ears, causing the solemn expression on his face to suddenly relax.

Along with this laughter, the stagnant storm in the sky began to move again.

And that figure as big as a black dot also landed on the dog-head warship.

"Lieutenant General Garp!"

"It's Vice Admiral Garp! Great!"

"We are completely saved now!"

All the officers around Xia Le became excited at this moment.

In this era, the heroic Vice Admiral Garp is the most powerful man in the navy, and a golden signboard that can stabilize people's hearts and boost morale.

His glorious military exploits were achieved through real fighting, without any falsehood.

A moment later, the two warships met.

Xia Le and others were taken to the Dog-head warship. Only then did Simbu, Salon and others breathe a sigh of relief and smile on their faces.

"Hahahaha!"

"How is it? Xia Le, what do you think after seeing those two guys?"

Karp came over and asked with a big laugh.

"I'm still far behind!"

Taking a deep breath, Xia Le said in a deep voice.

Yes, just by watching the battle, he clearly realized that the gap between himself and these world's top powerhouses was like a chasm.

The maximum level of Domineering Haki may be able to greatly shorten the distance between the two sides, but it does not mean that you are on the same level as the strong.

Observation Haki, Armament Haki, physical fitness, reaction speed, and combat experience are all factors that cannot be ignored.

"You're right, you're still far from it!"

"But one day, you will become as strong as them!"

Garp suppressed his smile and said seriously.

In his heart, he extremely recognized that the other party could inherit his mantle and become a strong man like him.

Xia Le nodded heavily.

"Strong men are forged through repeated battles between life and death!"

"And you, who possess the most important factor in becoming a strong person, will surely grow faster and go further!"

Garp reached out and patted his shoulder.

Then he raised his head again, looked at the storm ahead, and suddenly grinned.

"I'm going to go after Roger."

"Do you have the courage to go with me?"

Xia Le's eyes narrowed.

Go after Roger?

Seeing the two men fighting with one's own eyes makes one's heart palpitate with fear.

Can I be an enemy of such a powerful guy?

But it only took a moment, and he immediately nodded.

"go with!"

Hearing this, Karp laughed again. He turned his back to Xia Le and spoke softly in the storm.

"You have the potential to become a world-class powerhouse, with monstrous abilities and outstanding talent."

"But the foundation is too weak, and they haven't even received systematic training as navy officers."

"Zhan Guo believes that you should be given an environment and space for growth and transition, waiting for you, the excellent seed, to grow up and then experience the wind and rain."

"but."

After a pause, Garp grinned.

"My opinion is different from his. You are destined to be different from others. Even Kuzan, Sakaski, and Borsalino cannot compare with you."

"You have the quality of being immortal. You have been shot, beheaded, bombarded, poisoned, etc. None of these methods could kill you, but they have tempered your iron will."

"Even before mastering any combat skills, one can awaken the Conqueror's Haki!"

"You were born to grow step by step in desperate situations and adversities without fear of death."

"The greenhouse environment is not suitable for cultivating a monster like you!"

Listening to Karp's words, Xia Le's expression froze slightly, and then he laughed.

"I also prefer to follow Mr. Garp and learn everything from you!"

Garp laughed and patted his disciple on the shoulder again.

"I will train you to be the strongest navy in history!"

Then, the heroic lieutenant general, who was at the peak of his powers, turned and left.

In the storm, Xia Le looked at the other person's tall and strong back, feeling filled with emotion.

Looking at the entire naval system, Garp's life was definitely bumpy and pitiful.

He trained his son, his apprentice, and two grandsons, hoping to make them all navy soldiers, but all his attempts ended in failure. Three of them became pirates, and one joined the revolutionary army.

Throughout his life, Garp has worked hard to maintain a false peace.

Everything he did was to fight for the justice he insisted on.

He is a close friend of Roger, but for the sake of the justice he believes in, he captures Roger himself time and time again.

The grandson whom he raised was executed in front of his eyes and he could only sit there and watch. In the end, he was killed by his colleagues. He was so furious that he yelled such words to his long-time friend.

"Just hold me down like this, Sengoku!"

"Otherwise, I won't be able to help but kill him!"

Two years later, he was on Honeycomb Island again, facing Kuzan, the disciple he had personally brought up.

Xia Le's expression was a little complicated. In his impression, the other person had gray hair. Although his body was still strong, he was a little hunched and looked old. Behind his smile there was always sadness and loneliness.

And in front of you.

This man is domineering, crazy and strong!

He is at the peak of his life. He appears to be unrestrained, but he lives more freely, happily and passionately than any other day in the next twenty years!

These were Cap’s youngest and happiest years!

This was also his most powerful period.

It also belongs to him, an era of a naval hero named Garp.

“It’s my era too!”

Xia Le looked up, facing the storm, and murmured.

Chapter 21: Cut in two

"Boom!"

This was almost the most violent storm Xia Le had ever seen.

It was as if a god was on top of the dark clouds, pouring seawater into the sea, like the Milky Way in the sky forming a waterfall, rushing down. The wind was howling overhead, and the warships under our feet could only drift with the current.

What's even more terrifying is that this storm is getting bigger and bigger.

"Quick, quick, quick! Drain the accumulated water!"

"Don't let the rain flood the warship!"

"It's a big storm. This sea is so temperamental!"

The shouting continued in my ears, and Xia Le soon joined in.

The raindrops fell with a crackling sound, hitting his back and causing pain on his forehead. He looked up at the sea and could see bubbles appearing and the violently fluctuating sea surface.

It seemed as if a huge tsunami was brewing.

"Xia Le, go to the stern."

Kuzan was already soaked, holding a wooden barrel and shouting.

"Boom!"

The thunder was deafening and the lightning made each other's faces bright and dark. Xia Le nodded, stepped on the rain on the deck with his feet, and disappeared on the spot in an instant.

When he reached the stern, he saw Sakaski was also there.

"Humph, Xia Le!"

Sakaski looked up at him, then snorted coldly and continued to work hard. He quickly filled the wooden bucket with water with both hands and poured it outside.

Xia Le glanced at the other person and saw that this guy had a knife on his waist and a cold expression. Then he also bent down to fill the water.

Gradually, the movements of both of their hands became faster.

Suddenly, the two looked up, looked at each other, and sparks flashed in their eyes.

An invisible contest began. Sakaski's hands were extremely fast, and the water under his feet decreased at a speed visible to the naked eye. His hands had turned into phantoms, and Xia Le roared.

Finally, when the water on the deck reached its lowest level, he sat down on the ground with a plop, gasping for breath.

Sakaski was also very tired, but he still managed to stand there with his arms folded, looking down at the young man in front of him with a hint of disdain, as if to say that it was nothing.

"Childish competition!"

After a while, Xia Le stood up and spoke.

Sakaski's expression changed slightly, and just as he was about to retort, he saw that the other party had turned and left.

The storm is still going on, the unimaginable winds and rain are bringing great trouble to everyone.

Not only is the vision affected the most, but even the direction of sailing has become blurred. Standing on the boat and looking around, you can't find any reference at all.

Similarly, they also lost track of Roger and his gang.

"Bogart, were Roger and the others in this direction before they disappeared?"

Garp asked, yelling.

"It can't be wrong."

Bogart wiped the rain off his face and nodded.

"Damn the storm!"

Garp cursed.

Then he turned around and yelled at Xia Le who was standing there in a daze.

"Boy, what are you daydreaming about?"

Xia Le did not respond, but pointed to the front, where more than a dozen pirate ships suddenly appeared in the rain, leaning and scattered.

Karp was stunned for a moment, then his expression changed and he started laughing again.

"Hahahaha!"

"It seems that this storm has completely dispersed that guy Shiqi's fleet!"

The rain was too heavy and visibility was limited. When they discovered each other, the distance between them was already close to the limit. Even the nearest ship was about to collide with them.

"Everyone obeys the order!"

Karp suddenly shouted.

The storm seemed to have calmed down, and everyone on the boat stood up straight in an instant.

"Clear the obstacles ahead for me!"
