Early the next morning, Ron felt so nervous that he rolled over with his eyes closed. Then with a "snap", it fell onto the stone slab.
This moment made him wake up immediately. He opened his eyes and looked at the cold ground close at hand. He recalled what happened last night and suddenly muttered: "Old bastard Garp... shouldn't he just throw me to the ground and leave me alone?"
Two rounds of overloaded lightning fists a day, coupled with the hard work of fighting Xiu Zuo, was a great challenge for Ron. In the end, after the fight, he was exhausted and passed out.
So... I just slept on the floor all night
you are vicious!
Thinking viciously, Ron turned over and got up, but when he saw his surroundings clearly, he looked confused.
"I'll go...what's going on?! Where is this?"
He was in a narrow cell of less than ten square meters. The only light was the torch on the wall. There were dense steel cables all around, and there were gray stone strips in the middle... As expected, that thing was called a sea tower stone.
And Ron discovered that he was not outside the cell, but inside the cell.
I should be there, shouldn't be here...
"This is the Navy Headquarters prison, specially designed to hold ordinary criminals and pirates who are not sent to Impel Down..."
An old voice came from outside. Ron turned around, and what he saw was a purple-haired old man with a strong body and strong muscles, and his physique was not inferior to Garp's. He was holding the great command of justice on his shoulders, with his hands folded across his chest... It was worth noting that his right hand was chopped off at the shoulder level, and that hand was now a wooden prosthesis.
This person is surprisingly the former navy admiral, current chief instructor of the new military camp, and "black wrist" Zefa!
Regarding his appearance, Ron was only surprised for a second, and then his attention was attracted by another person... In another cell behind Zefa, Garp was looking at him with a look as if he was an enemy of life and death, venting his anger. General bite donuts.
Ron was so happy then!
"Hey, isn't this Lieutenant General Garp? You always come in to experience life?!"
"Hiss..."
Suddenly, Garp's teeth ached and he gasped, but he didn't reply. Instead, he sneered and cracked his knuckles.
Gordon's heart skipped a beat...
Ron swallowed and gave up the idea of teasing Garp. Then he saluted Zefa and said hello: "Chief Instructor Zefa!"
"Well, don't be nervous, just be casual."
Bringing a stool to sit on, Zefa lit the cigar, took a puff, and said to Ron across the cell: "Do you know why you were locked up?"
"Well… "
Recalling what happened last night, Ron frowned and said with a silly smile: "Ha, ha, ha, I don't know what's going on!"
"Stop pretending to be stupid!"
Zefa suddenly darkened his face and roared angrily: "This department stipulates that no one is allowed to do anything in any unauthorized place except in emergencies! Any offenders will be severely punished!"
Is there such a rule? !
Ron looked at Zefa in shock, the expression on his face didn't look fake. Then, his eyes widened and he said to Garp in disbelief: "Lieutenant General Garp, are you cheating on me?!"
"His salary for this year is gone!"
Zefa waved his hand to block the shouting match that was about to break out between the two, and then said: "Do you know what will happen to you?"
What will happen
Garp is a lieutenant general, a naval hero, and has a high status. Even he has had his salary deducted for a year. As a newcomer, I am afraid that he will not...
"Kick me out of the Navy?"
Ron stared at Zefa in horror and pointed at his nose.
No way
I just joined for a day? !
Seeing that Ron was indeed aware of the seriousness of the problem, the anger in Zefa's eyes softened slightly, and he snorted coldly and said: "According to the rules, it is true! But you have not been registered on the recruit list of this department. You are considered an outsider, and the Navy is not qualified to deal with you... "
Since I have never joined, there is no question of expulsion.
Ron was relieved when he heard this. He didn't expect that the registration trivial matter that he had always ignored turned out to be the most important life-saving straw at this moment.
"but… "
Zefa changed the topic and Ron immediately stood up straight: "Yes, I promise to complete the task!"
Zefa: "..."
I haven't said anything yet
You guarantee shit!
etc…
What did I just want to say
The corners of his mouth twitched twice, and Zefa continued the interrupted train of thought: "Considering that you don't know about this, the marshal is extraordinarily merciful and decided to keep you in the headquarters for observation... If you stop causing trouble and make up for your mistakes, then the Navy Gate Still open to you!”
"Understand?!"
After hearing what he said, Ron's eyes flashed and he started thinking quickly.
Yes, this is realistic... The Navy believes in the theory of "nipping danger in the cradle". The reason why most of the pirates imprisoned in the Impel Forbidden Area lv.6 were not executed was to show their strength and deterrence. Pirates, especially because once their fruit abilities spread and are obtained by other pirates, the sea will become even more turbulent.
Now, if a person with the Thunder Fruit ability were expelled from the Navy and returned to the sea, one day he would no longer want to become a pirate, and the Navy would regret it.
Moreover, the Thunder Fruit is so powerful that it is known as the "strongest natural system"... This time the problem is indeed serious, but compared with the future of a Thunder Fruit user, the Navy can make concessions.
As the saying goes, give something in return and take what each other needs.
After grasping the key points, Ron put down his anxiety and replied with a smile: "Understood!"
…
Ron left quickly. Since he had already decided to be "on probation", there was no point in imprisoning a "civilian".
After Ron was sent away, Garp sat in the cell and looked at Zefa.
"That kid's body... you also discovered it, right?"
"Yeah, that kind of self-healing ability is simply not like human beings..."
Zefa took a puff of his cigar and recalled what he had witnessed last night...
Hearing that Ron's arm had been scorched by developing a new move, and fearing that he would be disabled like himself, Zefa came with a medical team of dozens of people.
But before the doctor could make a diagnosis, under the stunned gaze of a group of people, the blackened bloody shells fell away, revealing the new pink muscles and skin underneath.
After that, the colonel officer in charge of the test in the afternoon was quickly summoned for questioning, and it was determined that Ron had used the same move in the afternoon. Although it was not as powerful as at night, but it also caused serious damage to the body, Garp and others believed the fact.
Ron was born with terrible healing abilities... and it had nothing to do with his Thunder Fruit!
In the afternoon, the colonel instructor in charge of the test thought that Ron's injury was not serious, and he did recover after a while. He thought it was nothing serious, so he did not report separately.
But they are different from each other. They stand higher and can see more accurately!
Therefore, it can be directly concluded that Ron's body is different from ordinary people!
and…
"His body... is just a black hole! Why is this?!"
Zefa smoked a little faster, and for a while the smoke filled the air.
Last night, after confirming that Ron was fine, the doctor prepared some nutrient solution and gave it to Ron to supplement his missing nutrients. But as soon as those things entered the blood vessels, Ron's muscles all over his body spasmed and he digested and absorbed them in the blink of an eye.
After repeated attempts several times, Ron's aura increased and strengthened at a speed visible to the naked eye. If his aura intensity was 10 after the injury, then it became 11 at that time. In just half an hour!
It wasn't until he burped unconsciously that his body stopped absorbing like a black hole and became normal.
... This can no longer be explained by excellence and genius, he is a monster!
What Ron didn't know was that even though the nutrients in the food in the One Piece world were extremely easy to absorb, they were still subject to physical limitations.
His unreasonable and limitless ability to absorb and devour caused him to grow at an alarming rate. He was simply an alien!
For example...
Other people's bodies are unable to hold more energy and then they are exploded, broken and then stand up, thereby breaking through the original upper limit. And he seems to be born with no upper limit and can always turn nutrition into nourishment.
This ability reminds Garp of something that happened decades ago...
"He fell from the sky. The Thunder Fruit comes from a sky island kingdom called Bika..."
On the boat, Garp asked Ron about his past... He was an adventurer who traveled around. This was the identity Ron had assigned to himself. Later, a reverse current occurred, and he and the ship were washed up on the island. After several years of wandering, I finally got the Thunder Fruit, but when I was testing my ability, I accidentally slipped and fell into Qinghai.
There are very few backwash currents in the records of this book, but they do exist. Most of them are unrecorded and spread among the people. Therefore, there is no way to verify which time Ron was washed up on the sky island.
"Is it that kingdom called Bika again?"
Zefa frowned silently, apparently thinking of something as well.
"But even with that thing, the effect is a bit too exaggerated, right?"
Zefa, as a member of the insider, has a close relationship with Garp. I have regretted it more than once, why I am not afraid of death. It is Garp who eats it and not me. But even with that kind of fruit, Garp wasn't so perverted back then.
"I don't know about that..."
Cap bit into his donut and shrugged.
"Didn't the birdman say that the effects of the medicine can be stacked? He also wanted to use this to trick us into going to the Sky Island to avenge him... So maybe Ron just ate a lot of it stupidly... But for now, the boy hasn't... Realizing his own specialness, he probably doesn’t even know what he ate... "
Speaking of this, Garp suppressed a smile.
"After all, his body is different from ordinary people. Maybe he feels good about himself and thinks everything is normal... "
"Hahaha, that's it..."
Hearing this, Zefa curled up the corner of his mouth, flicked the cigar, and watched the ashes of Mars floating in the air. He slowly smiled and said: "If the effects of the medicine can really be superimposed, then Ron's training needs to be adjusted accordingly. … A year’s worth of effective medicine cannot be wasted.”
Garp rarely took this seriously and looked at Zefa seriously.
"Then, I leave everything to you, Zefa..."
"Nonsense! Stop worrying and go to your prison!"
Zefa sneered, shook his body, and strode out.
