One Piece: Starting in God Valley as a Slave

The next day, after having a refreshing drink with Sengoku and the others last night, Zephyr got up early and came to the training ground to inspect as usual.

The Marine School's training ground was very large. He habitually looked towards the area with the most people on weekdays, but he only saw a few scattered students, all of whom were female.

Zephyr's face darkened, thinking that yesterday's training must have ended too early, allowing those boys to seize the opportunity to go out and hang out, and now they are probably still sleeping soundly in the dormitory.

"It seems we can no longer set such a precedent in the future. They are still young; how can they slack off at this time? How could they sleep?"

Just when Zephyr was thinking about waiting for everyone to gather and then start training with the devil, a burst of shouting came,

"Ninety-nine, one hundred! Sakazuki is awesome!"

"Carl is getting faster and faster! Come on, Carl!"

"Borsalino, what are you doing?! Oh my god! Is he asleep!?"

Zephyr was stunned for a moment and looked in the direction where the sound came from. He saw that Sakazuki's "exclusive corner" was full of people. He counted, and with the few girls in the center of the venue, it seemed the students had already arrived.

Because there were so many people, Zephyr could only tell from the shouts of the students that Carl and the others were also there, even Borsalino, who always liked to take it easy.

Curious, he held his breath and quietly came behind.

Momonga didn't even notice Zephyr behind him. He was stretching his neck and cheering for Carl in front of him with a red face.

In the open space in the center of the crowd, Carl, Borsalino, and Akainu were lying shirtless on the ground, each holding a large barbell and doing presses.

Ginny on the side was holding a stopwatch to time them, but her eyes were always on Carl, and it was unclear if she would be able to stop the timer accurately later.

Seeing this scene, Zephyr, who was initially a little angry, lost all his anger in an instant, and he was even quite happy.

Although he didn't know what was going on, the sight of the students mingling together made him feel happy.

But when he turned his attention to Borsalino, he immediately scolded him out of habit,

"Borsalino, you are lazy again! Is there glue on the barbell? It's stuck to your belly, right?!"

Borsalino, who had been lounging on the ground for a long time, trembled when he heard Zephyr's voice. He subconsciously raised the barbell and pushed hard twice, but it quickly withered.

Zephyr's voice also made the others notice his presence, and they all turned to look at him.

"Ahem."

Zephyr coughed twice, blaming that bastard Borsalino in his mind. He wanted to observe them a little longer!

Now that he had been "exposed," Zephyr's next performance was beyond all the students' expectations. He put away his serious face and said with a smile,

"You continue; it's still early. Haven't they decided the winner yet?"

After speaking, he took the lead and shouted,

"Everyone, work harder! Whoever wins this month, I'll give him double the subsidy!"

This reward wasn't particularly attractive to Carl and Sakazuki. After all, one of them wasn't short of money, and the other was focused on the competition.

Only Borsalino, after hearing these words, suddenly had a glow in his eyes, and he finally found the energy to push.

However, he had been slacking off for too long, and before he could push a few times, Ginny clicked the stopwatch and cheered,

"The game is over! Brother Carl is so awesome! You and Sakazuki are tied for first place!"

Borsalino, who came in second and last place, lay on the ground like an eggplant beaten by frost, and complained bitterly,

"Mr. Zephyr, why didn't you tell me earlier? It's a waste of effort!"

Zephyr gave him a look. The opportunity had been given to him, but who could he blame for not grasping it?

The three on the ground stood up one after another, and Ginny immediately put a coat on Carl, attracting envious looks from all the male students.

Akainu picked up his coat from the ground and put it on, covering his strong upper body.

In fact, there were still many female students who liked Akainu, a tough guy, but he looked so fierce that no female students dared to approach him.

Of course, Akainu wouldn't care about this kind of thing. He said while fastening his buttons,

"Carl, you are very strong, much stronger than that guy Borsalino."

Carl shuddered, wondering why Akainu was always so angry when he spoke.

However, Carl still admired Akainu in his heart. You must know that his physical talent was among the best. After all, he was from the Figarland family, and his body had been specially modified. Although Akainu's talent was not low, it was still much worse than Carl's.

The tie in the game was entirely the result of Akainu's hard work.

Borsalino sat cross-legged on the ground, sighing. He was still regretting losing the double subsidy.

Akainu, who understood Borsalino very well, comforted him considerately,

"Borsalino, even if you had used your full strength at the beginning, it would have been difficult to defeat me and Carl. Don't worry too much about it."

"..."

Borsalino looked at Akainu speechlessly and complained,

"I said, Sakazuki, are you comforting me or trying to hit me?"

"Of course, I'm trying to comfort you."

"Puch!"

Hearing the conversation between the two, Ginny couldn't help but burst out laughing, holding Carl's hand and saying,

"Brother Carl, they're so interesting!"

Not only Ginny, but also the other students who were watching were made to laugh by Akainu and Borsalino. They suddenly discovered that these two beings, whom they once regarded as monsters, actually had such a cute side.

After the group was disbanded yesterday, Carl invited all the students out for a big meal. They were all young people. They sat together for a few drinks and quickly relaxed.

Those students who were beaten up by Akainu even apologized to Akainu and Borsalino face-to-face under the influence of alcohol.

The most exciting one was Ginny.

She had an amazing appetite, but she had the opposite ability to drink.

She got drunk after just a few drinks.

At that time, she was wrapped around Carl like a little snake.

She said something that makes her think about it now.

If you can't help but find a crack in the ground to crawl in.

On the way back, she also told Kuma that if she got drunk again in the future, he should use his power to pop the alcohol out of her body; otherwise, she would be too embarrassed to see others.

When she met Carl at the training ground today, her face was still red. Fortunately, Carl didn't bring up last night's events; he was directly dragged into the game by Akainu.

But in this way, Ginny was a little disappointed, as if she had said everything in vain.

The little girl's thoughts are always so complicated. Ginny looked up at Carl's side profile, her eyes gradually blurring.

It wasn't until Zephyr called for gathering that she came back to her senses. She reluctantly let go of Carl and ran to join the little sisters she had just met.
