One Piece: I will become stronger by checking in

In an instant, Mochi broke out in a cold sweat.

Stiffly, he slowly turned his head. Seeing Kai with a smirk on his face, he felt a bit scared.

When did this guy show up?

If he were to attack him secretly now, wouldn't that...

You see, he's a Beast Master!

To put it nicely, he can communicate with and control animals, and he's quite strong!

To put it mildly, he's a waste without his animals!

If he does this, then he has to...

"Brother, I just smiled because I thought of something happy!"

"Oh~ What's the happy thing?" Kai asked with a smirk.

"My richie has given birth to a lion cub!" Mochi replied seriously.

"That's right!" Kai nodded.

"But... isn't it a male?"

"It reproduces asexually, and males can also give birth!" Mochi continued.

Looking at his serious expression, Kai almost bought it.

It seems these pirates are pretty good at spinning tales!

Almost caught up with him!

However, Kai didn't continue with the conversation and said:

"Now, I want to watch their battle from the back of your lion. The view is better here. Any problem?"

"No problem, no problem!" Mochi answered hastily, even flattering:

"Would you like the lion to bounce a little to make your seat more rhythmic?"

"Not a bad idea!"

After saying that, Kai patted the lion beneath him and said:

"Come on, do a crab dance to entertain me!"

"Ho~~~Ugh~~~!"

In just a second, the lion's roar had changed to a whine after hearing Kai's command.

Mochi, lying on the ground, looked distressed but dared not speak up.

He couldn't believe what he just witnessed!

The man in front of him merely flicked his fingers, and richie fell to the ground.

He could clearly sense richie's fear through the lion's reaction.

"You said you had to be beaten to remember. It's true!"

"Alright, now hurry up and make the lion dance!"

"You, go and command it to dance!" Kai pointed at Mochi and said.

"Yes! I'll do it right away!" Mochi responded quickly but didn't move for a while.

"Huh? What's the matter? My instructions not clear?" Kai asked with a cold look.

"No, no, brother, absolutely not!" Mochi shook his head vigorously and waved his hands.

"It's just... how do you do this crab dance?"

...

...

After a while, Luffy and Buggy were locked in a fierce battle. Zoro and Cabaji were also going at it.

As for Kai ...

A lion was jumping left and right, swaying back and forth, with sweat dripping from its face.

But it dared not stop; otherwise, the lion's fierce spirit wouldn't be easy to handle.

Isn't it a bit inappropriate to make a lion imitate a crab?

Kai was actually enjoying himself, rocking out while giving directions and criticizing.

"Luffy, attack him!"

"Zoro, come on! Why are you hiding there all the time?"

(╬▔盘▔)╯!

"Shut up!" Luffy and Zoro shouted in unison.

But Kai just curled his lips in disdain and kept at it.

Seriously, when did two underlings start giving him orders?

Ignoring Kai 's constant chatter, Luffy and Zoro continued their fights.

Luffy and Buggy were evenly matched, with Buggy even having a slight edge.

Meanwhile, Zoro's battle with Cabaji was becoming increasingly one-sided. With Zoro putting in all his effort, Cabaji was clearly outmatched.

After slashing away Cabaji's knife once more, Zoro slowed down and prepared his next move.

"I want to become the strongest swordsman in the world! You can be my stepping stone to becoming the strongest swordsman!"

"Ghost Slash!"

In an instant, Zoro seemed to turn into a ghost, appearing behind Cabaji in the blink of an eye.

Seconds later, blood started pouring from Kabaji's chest.

Several deep wounds emerged, penetrating to the bone.

"How... how... could I lose!"

With those final words, Cabaji's first bout with Zoro came to an end.

Though he was somewhat weak compared to Zoro, he didn't play much of a role in Zoro's training.

As Zoro sheathed his sword, Kai's voice called out.

"Hey~~~ Zoro!"

"Come up and experience the thrill of movement!"

"Tch~ Do you think I'd be like you?" Zoro looked disdainfully.

...

"Luffy, slap him in the face! What are you doing?" Zoro shouted while sitting on the lion's head.

Don't tell me, this shake is really exhilarating!

Luffy was momentarily thrown off balance at this sight.

He pouted and said unhappily: "Why do they get to sit on the lion while I have to keep fighting this Red Nose?"

Then Luffy turned to Buggy and declared:

"Red Nose, I'm going to knock you out quickly! I want to sit on the lion too!"

Buggy's face darkened, looking like he'd eaten something unpleasant. He had thought these two helpers would come through for him!

How long has it been since then?

One was lounging around and calling him boss, while the other was basking in the sun.

Now it's a one versus three disadvantage, which is quite the mess!

But it's not entirely hopeless. The two newcomers don't seem to be joining the fight.

In that case, there's still a chance!

The only blame lies in their overconfidence, giving him the opportunity to defeat them one by one.

Buggy focused his eyes, split his lower body, and then let the lower body fly out like a pancake.

At the same time, bayonets popped out from the toes of the lower body, spinning towards Luffy to attack.

"Split into Pieces·Pancake!"

Luffy was shocked and jumped up.

At the same time, Luffy's straw hat also bounced up. Seeing this, Buggy narrowed his eyes, split his hand instantly, and stabbed Luffy's straw hat with a flying knife.

"Stab it!"

The flying knife pierced through Luffy's hat.

"My Straw Hat!!!" Luffy shouted with fear in his eyes.

"You bastard!"

Luffy glared at Buggy, furious over the hole in his treasured hat.

"Gahahahaha..."

"Shanks' straw hat is as annoying as he is and shouldn't exist in this world!"

"Gahahaha..."

"Bang!"

Luffy's fist connected with Buggy's face, sending him flying.

"I... I won't let you talk about Shanks!!!"
