The Strongest Lunarian in One Piece

The commotion settled.

Thor returned to Beast Island.

"Mom, that guy was so weak…"

He lifted his leg and mimicked a kicking motion as he spoke. "I barely tapped him, and he went down!"

"All right, all right, we get it—you're amazing. Stop bragging already!"

Gerd smacked him lightly on the head, her expression exasperated.

But deep down, she couldn't help feeling proud.

After all, he was her son.

Thanks to the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, Thor possessed lightning-fast speed.

His already monstrous physical strength was amplified to unimaginable levels by his enhanced speed.

In fact, even among the elite ranks of the Totto Land Kingdom—the Five Calamities and the Eight Vajras—only the strongest few within the 72 Pillars of Demons could withstand his attacks.

This was Thor's advantage as a "born monster." While not as absurdly gifted as the first generation, like Linlin and El, his power was still incredible.

And with a top-tier Logia ability like the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, eleven-year-old Thor was nearly untouchable.

There were undoubtedly many powerful figures in the world who could defeat him, but the number of people who could actually capture him could be counted on one hand.

"That should've been my fight!"

Dal, the third eldest, bared his teeth in frustration.

"No way—it should've been me!" Sif, the second eldest, retorted angrily, hands on her hips.

"It makes more sense for me to go," Willie, the fourth eldest, chimed in lazily. "You're both too strong—you'd end the fight too quickly. I'd make it more interesting!"

"You? As if! If your holy flames touch anyone, they'll just turn to ashes!" Sif snapped, glaring at him.

"Hey, I wanna go too!" Little Eden, the sixth eldest, raised his hand excitedly.

"Hehehe, count me in!" said Frey, the seventh child, laughing as he tugged at his hair.

"No, it should definitely be me!" piped up six-year-old Ares, a true prodigy whose power rivaled that of his father El at the same age.

"And us too!"

Five-year-old Hyde (the ninth) and Athena (the tenth) eagerly joined the chorus.

"You little brats haven't even passed your tests yet," Gerd scolded, brandishing a stick as she bonked each of their heads in turn. "Don't even think about it! Get back to your training!"

"Mamamama, such lively kids… Double the training load for today!" Linlin declared with a laugh.

"Ahh?! Nooo!"

"Please, Mama Linlin, we're sorry!"

The rowdy group of children immediately panicked, their faces falling as they pleaded for mercy.

Just then, the sound of splashing water caught their attention.

Two figures emerged from the sea.

"Huh?"

"Jien?"

Linlin and Gerd looked up in surprise.

It was none other than Sea Tiger Jien, one of the core members of the Fallen Angel Pirates.

Beside him stood a fifteen- or sixteen-year-old boy with a striking red body, thick lips, and other Fish-Man features like webbed hands and fins.

"Uncle Jien!"

Thor, Sif, Dal, and the others greeted him enthusiastically.

As a long-time member of the Fallen Angel Pirates, Jien was well-known to the children. He often brought them delicious treats and fun trinkets from Fish-Man Island, earning their affection.

"Linlin-sama, Gerd-sama, I see you're busy training the young princes and princesses…"

Shaking off the water droplets from his body, Jien smiled and said, "I just got back from Fish-Man Island. I thought El-sama would be here!"

As a member of the Dream House, and given his relationship with Linlin, Gerd, and the others, Jien wasn't usually this formal. Apart from using honorifics when addressing El, he generally called everyone else by name.

However, with Totto Land Kingdom's rapid development, growing influence, and increasing formalization, the attitudes of the cadre members had also shifted. While it wasn't to the point of reverence or fear toward Linlin, Gerd, and the other leaders, there was now a conscious respect, reflected in the use of honorifics like "-sama" or "prince" and "princess."

"So tall, and with webbed hands…"

The young Fish-Man beside Jien looked around at the towering figures of Thor, Sif, and the rest, his wide eyes filled with shock. "So these are the Giant Race and the Lunarian Race?"

Even the "shorter" members, like Willie, stood over three meters tall. And given their youth, it was clear they hadn't yet reached their physical limits. This potential for further growth left the young Fish-Man in awe.

"Tiger, stop gawking. Show some respect…"

Jien tapped the boy on the head, scolding him gently. "This is Linlin-sama and Gerd-sama, the two royal consorts of Totto Land. And these are the princes and princesses!"

"Greetings, Your Majesty. Greetings, Your Highnesses!"

Realizing his mistake, Fisher Tiger quickly stepped forward and bowed respectfully.

"No need to be so formal," Linlin said with a smile, giving him a once-over. "I heard Jien took on a disciple from Fish-Man Island. That must be you, right?"

"Yes, Linlin-sama," Fisher Tiger responded nervously. "I'm honored to be training under my master in Fish-Man Karate."

After all, standing before him were some of the most powerful figures in Totto Land, known across the seas for their terrifying strength. Even the young princes and princesses, though still children, were prodigiously talented and frighteningly powerful.

Thanks to the Fallen Angel Pirates' protection, Fish-Man Island had been spared from the chaos of rising pirate activity and human traffickers. Flying the Totto Land flag deterred anyone from targeting Fish-Man Island or its people, providing much-needed peace and stability.

"Hoho, Tiger here has great potential," Jien said with pride. "He might even surpass me one day!"

It's worth noting that the Eight Vajras—the top-tier combatants of the Fallen Angel Pirates—had seen significant changes in recent years. As senior members like Tsuru, Sally, and Lillian took on more field missions, their activities drew the attention of the World Government. Although they didn't qualify as "Calamities," their growing strength and contributions earned them spots in the Eight Vajras, surpassing others like Saul and the Ace brothers, who were relegated to the 72 Pillars of Demons.

Jien, despite his unrelenting training and strength comparable to that of a Navy vice-admiral, also failed to break into the Vajras and had to settle for a spot among the top ten of the 72 Pillars. This had been a significant regret for him. Still, he couldn't deny the overwhelming strength of the Eight Vajras:

Schemer Tsuru

Shapeshifter Witch Sally

Evil Eye Lillian

Barrier King Francis Bangi

Butcher Hajrudin

Little Devil Little Oz

Gryphon Moss

Ant King Quinn

Each of these warriors was an absolute powerhouse, and Jien had no choice but to admit his inferiority. Because of this, he placed great hopes on his disciple Fisher Tiger, believing the boy might one day surpass him.

"Mamamama! Then we'll look forward to seeing what he can achieve!"

Linlin and Gerd exchanged smiles.

Under El's leadership, every ambitious and capable cadre member in Totto Land pursued constant self-improvement. Whether it was Flea Man Rock, Gryphon Moss, or Ant King Quinn, all had made incredible progress. The competition for rank was fierce.

Even the Ace brothers, who had far surpassed the Giant Warrior Pirates' leaders Blue Ogre Dorry and Red Ogre Brogy, were forced out of the Eight Vajras and into the 72 Pillars of Demons. Of course, if the two brothers joined forces, their combined strength would be far greater than the sum of their parts. However, the ranking of the Eight Vajras was based purely on individual strength. Even warriors like Shimotsuki Kouzaburou and Sky Giant Helen, who hadn't yet joined the Eight Vajras, could defeat the Ace brothers in one-on-one combat. As such, the brothers could only remain in the 72 Pillars for now.
