One Piece Flame Emperor Ace

Chapter 29 Zefa
After chatting for a while, the three of them went to rest separately, had a good sleep, and made up for the energy consumed by the mission.

The next day, Ace got up early again, took his big knife, and put himself into training again.

In Ace's heart, the sense of urgency to become stronger has never disappeared. After all, in this sea, the strong are like crucian carp crossing the river, and there are countless.

Although Ace's strength has improved somewhat, it is not enough for him to gallop freely and protect his cherished relatives and dreams with his heart.

Thoughts flashed through his mind, and Ace's hands holding the knife became firmer.

And his big knife was damaged in the previous battle with Oston, but after the Abnormal Fire System absorbed the beheading machete, it has recovered its sharpness, which is very miraculous.

The figure was tossing and turning, the big knife in his hand was constantly chopping horizontally and vertically in the air, and the cold light flickered into a gorgeous light curtain. Compared with a week ago, Ace has mastered the basic naval swordsmanship, and the combination of sword technique and body technique is almost perfect .

This is all because of the awakening of the domineering "knowledge color", Ace's brain seems to have broken through an invisible bottleneck, making it easier for him to understand the swordsmanship and body skills described in the book, and his learning ability has taken a big step!

During Ace's hard practice, three days passed quickly.

……

In the early morning, the rays of the rising sun filled the entire training ground of the base.

When Ace and the others came to the training square, there were already nearly two hundred first-stage students standing here, each of them gearing up and eager to try.

At the moment, in the center of the training field, the usual training equipment and two huge display screens have been removed in advance, replaced by five rings with a diameter of ten meters, and a rostrum at the front.

There was only one seat on the rostrum, and the instructors, who usually looked majestic, could only line up on both sides at this moment, standing respectfully with their hands tied.

And on the only seat, a strong old man with short purple hair was holding a toothpick, looking sharply at the naval cadets in front of him.

It is the supreme officer of this training base, former navy general Zefa!
"What's the matter, where's Mondo?" Zephyr's tone was a little unhappy. There were only four instructors present, except Mondo.

"Mundo said he felt a little sick to his stomach today." One of the instructors said.

"Fart, what day is it today, dare to find such an excuse? I think he can stop coming in the future, isn't there a supply ship to leave tomorrow, take him away too!" Zefa decided in one sentence, Mundo I'm afraid I will be temporarily unemployed.

The reason why Mundo didn't come was precisely because he framed Shatton and Ace before, and secretly hid the news that the Hanged Pirates had two major generals.

When he saw that Shatton and Ace had returned safely, he was startled. Because he was afraid that things would be exposed, he didn't dare to come to today's group arena.

Of course, this is just an episode, neither Ace nor Shatton will take Mundo, a clown, to heart.

"Okay, be quiet!"

Zefa's voice was not too loud, but it reached everyone's ears almost at the same time, with a tinge of majesty that shocked people's hearts, making the students present involuntarily quiet down.

"I think you all already know the rules of this group arena, so I won't say much." Zefa stood up with his hands behind his back, and his eyes scanned everyone present from left to right, "I Those who are qualified to become my disciples will be selected from among you. Except for one strongest student, as long as you fully demonstrate yourself in the next battle, each of you will have a chance!"

"Next, those who are confident in themselves, stand on the ring in front of you!" Zefa grinned and looked at the students in front of him with deep eyes.

Of course, the person who comes on stage first has no advantage, because he will be constantly challenged by the next person, and his physical strength will definitely be consumed rapidly.

"But if you don't have the self-confidence of a strong person, even if you get the first place, what qualifications do you have to become Zefa's disciple?!" Zefa sat back on the chair, chewed a toothpick, and muttered to himself.

There was another commotion under the ring, but no one came to the stage for a while, obviously they all understood the key point.

And after listening to Zefa's words, Ace understood his thoughts, so after he whispered a word to Ian and Drake, he carried his big knife on his back and calmly walked onto the first ring .

"I'm Ace!"

wow~
The eyes of the audience were all on Ace, but he didn't show any signs of tension. After saluting the officers on the rostrum, he looked indifferently at the people in the audience.

"This kid is good, very courageous, what's his name?" Seeing Ace, who seemed to be only about ten years old, Zefa asked the instructors with great interest.

"My lord, his name is Ace, and he belongs to our fifth team. I think if there are no accidents, he should be the strongest in this group of students." Hearing Zefa's question, Shatton immediately smiled. He answered with confidence in his tone.

"Oh? Then I'll have to take a closer look." A look of surprise appeared in Zefa's eyes, and he couldn't help but look at Ace twice more.

But the other few instructors quit. What is the strongest student? The competition has not started yet!

"I said Instructor Shatton, you are wrong to say that. Although this Ace test ranks first, the basic ability does not represent the actual combat power!"

"That's right, let's not say anything else, Gaspardi from our third team will definitely give you a big surprise later!"

Facing the doubts of several other instructors, Shatton's smile did not change at all.

Ace's actual combat power is not strong?

joke!

All the pirates with major general level combat strength were chopped down by him!

"Enough, let's watch the game." Zefa's words ended the discussion of several instructors.

After a while, a student had already stood on the five arenas.

In addition to Ace, Drake and Ian also stood on a ring respectively, but Ace had never seen the students on the other two rings.

But seeing their excited faces and trembling palms, Ace knew that they probably just wanted to show off on stage.

What about Gaspardi, who may have the ability of jellybean fruit, why isn't it on?

Espen was a little puzzled, but when he thought of his sinister and cunning character in the One Piece anime, Ace understood that this person wanted others to use up his energy first, and then challenged himself on stage, so he could easily win.

No wonder he is still so weak with the power of a devil fruit!
Sure enough, he was destined to be weak, and Ace became even more dismissive of Gaspardi.

"I, Carrie, challenge Ace!"

A sturdy student who was two meters tall and holding a mace in his hand stared at Ace excitedly.
