One Piece: Adopting Akainu at the beginning, adopted son Barrett

Chapter 244: Sister will kill all the gangsters for you sooner or later!
"Hey-ho! Hey-ho!"

"You're already at your limit with only 600 punches, brother Smoker? Be a good subordinate to me from now on, and I'll lead you through the entire Grand Line!"

"Sister, please say less..."

"Shut up Lucas! Sooner or later I'll bring that sea scoundrel to you and cut him up! I don't want to have to arrest you myself in the future!"

Faced with her brother's troubles, Annina, as the elder sister, changed her usual expression and became extremely angry and irritable. It was obvious that the relationship between the two siblings was very good in the past, and it would never have come to this point.

The reason was very simple. Just yesterday, it read the same newspaper as Lucas...

The feat of the sea gangster Don Quixote Doflamingo occupying a place in the North Sea underworld at the age of twelve made Lucas, who had loved gangster culture since childhood, very excited, envious and yearning.

Annina's mind was very simple. Whether out of concern for her family or possible future situations, she didn't want her brother to become obsessed with the evil path, so she pretended to be angry and made various threats.

This is the most effective method she can think of at the moment.

"Tsk...don't be so proud, I'm no worse than anyone else!"

Smoker gritted his teeth and ignored the quarrel between the siblings. Instead, he focused on punching the iron pillar in front of him, hitting the thin cloud on the outside of the iron pillar.

The recoil force caused by the punch was bounced back by Bo Yun and transmitted throughout his body through Smoker's fist in a gentler way, effectively destroying the surface tissue without harming the bones, allowing him, who was only about seven years old, to train as frantically as an adult.

He was sweating profusely and was determined. Even though his body was cracked and bleeding from the recoil, he did not give up. The pain that spread throughout his body could not stop his determination to become stronger.

Since coming to Yun Island with Mokasi half a year ago, he has seen a lot and changed a lot.

The first thing that came to his mind was the incredible Cloud Island, which was like a fairy tale come true. He didn't believe Mokasi's statement that the island was man-made, but even after thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't come up with a better explanation.

Then there is his current teacher, Ross.

He was a very gentle old man. His slightly gray hair told him that he was not young. His every move showed a different style from other superiors, and there seemed to be always a laughing little girl by his side.

After learning about his deeds, the old man even took him to Snod's tombstone to thank him in person, which made the young Smoker feel a little unbelievable and excited.

Later, under the guidance of Mokasi, he first got a house of his own, and then visited Cloud Island, where he made a friend, Lucas, by chance.

Two months ago, I accepted Mr. Ross's invitation to become a trial student in the [Oder] training camp, and for the first time I directly realized one of the most powerful forces in this sea.

The user of the natural fruit ability called "Awakening"!
I remember the last time I witnessed this kind of power was not long ago at the Naval Headquarters in Rogue Town, when a giant magical snail played "animation" for the townspeople for free.

At that time, he thought that the scene of the magma monster fighting the black-armed muscular superman was some kind of animation, or a real-life adaptation of a comic movie. In the past, wealthy businessmen would always use similar things to attract people when passing through Rogue Town.

Young Smoker never took that kind of scene as reality. After all, could a human really reach the point of destroying the world?
At that time, the lava monster covered a platform that was as big as an island with lava! It was unrealistic that the black-armed muscle man could defeat the lava monster in such a battlefield? !

But on that day, Ross performed the feat of pinching an island in front of him. He used clouds to drag several small islands and pinched out a deserted island one-third the size of Cloud Island near Cloud Island!

He still remembered the exaggerated expression he made when he made a fool of himself in front of his good friends that day. He also met a somewhat annoying girl, a violent girl about a year older than him - Annina.

At the same time, she is also the only superhuman being of the same age that Smoker has seen so far.

"I'm just envious of that guy's achievements. You're nosy, sister. I hate you!"

Lucas also has his own temper. After hearing what Annina said, he immediately got angry and yelled at her in anger.

He didn't understand. They were both pursuing their own dreams, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with his sister. Why did his sister mind so much?
Obviously, his parents didn't say he was wrong! Why can his sister do that?

"Am I meddling too much? Lucas, let me tell you, you just think being a gangster is fun. Those disgusting, rotten, dirty bugs don't deserve to live! Every breath they take is a pollution to the ocean!
You only see their majesty when they stand high up and suck blood, and you only see their arrogance after doing evil. Do you know what the birth of a gang means to the local residents! ? "

Annina stopped training and was extremely angry at Lucas's temper, questioning her brother with derogatory words without repeating herself.

Lucas' face turned red at his sister's tone. His dreams and pursuits were wantonly belittled by others, and this person was once his best relative. This feeling was more suffocating than just discomfort.

But he understood that what his sister said made sense. He liked gangster culture, so he also knew that the history of every gangster's rise to power was not glorious. Maybe the intention was good at the beginning, but it would quickly decay in the end.

He also stopped his training and still stubbornly retorted:

"That's different. They are them and I am me! Why do you think I would be as evil as them? You are my sister! You should support me..."

Lucas sounded extremely aggrieved in his last words. Looking at his sister's face, tears welled up in his eyes. The child's emotional hormones made it easy for him to secrete tears, which were completely out of his subjective control.

Even someone as strong as Smoker kept punching while wiping away tears during training.

But Annina didn't buy it. She said sarcastically:
"What's the difference? A thief is a thief! Even if he does ten thousand good things, as long as he does one bad thing, he will be a thief for the rest of his life! You can control yourself, but you can't control others, do you understand?!"

"I……"

Lucas was speechless. He knew clearly what his sister meant, and he also understood that his sister had never thought of opposing him. She was only opposed to the people who might appear around him.

She just... worried too much...

But Lucas would not give up because he wanted to do what he liked, so he waved his hand and said:
"I won't do anything that I'll regret!"

After saying this, he left without looking back. Lucas knew that his father might be watching them in the dark, and he needed some time to calm down.

But before Lucas could take two steps, Annina's roar came from behind him, and the whistling sound even blew a breeze around him:
"Stop Lucas! I'm the older sister, you have to listen to me!"

"bump!"

A crisp sound was heard, and Lucas was attracted by the unique crisp sound. He turned around and saw his sister's black fist deeply embedded in the iron pillar used for training.

Even the thin cloud created by his father was shattered by a punch. Looking closely, a large bulge appeared behind the solid iron column with a diameter of half a meter, and the cracks looked as if a fist would burst out of the ground in the next second.

My sister's eyes were as fierce as a tiger whose food had been snatched from its mouth. She stared at me coldly and was very angry.

"Lucas... come back, or I will kill all the gangsters for you sooner or later!" Annina said in a cold tone.

Lucas was frightened by his sister's aura. He looked at his sister's black arms, and the armed color domineering instinctively protected her young and fragile body.

He recognized what the black paint-like coating was, but he did not obey. Instead, he snorted calmly:
"Humph!"

After the snort, he left the training ground without looking back, leaving his sister with a cruel smile behind him.

Annina is very angry now. Her foolish brother is crawling towards an evil path, and she is unable to help him completely break this path.

"Hey, is your hand... okay?"

Smoker had already stopped his training and took out two bandages from his clothes to simply bandage his bloody fist.

He was stunned.

No, sister, that's a solid iron pillar! And what is that black thing? Why does it feel so cool?

He didn't understand why Annina, who was only one year older than him, already had such superhuman power.

He seemed to gradually understand the previous conversation with Mokasi, what it meant to not be hit so hard that he gave up...

Of course, Smoker, who had already seen big scenes, would not be discouraged by such a small scene. After all, temporary strength was nothing. He did not have such a favorable environment as Annina since he was a child, so it was normal for him to be weak now.

"It's okay, it just hurts a little. Lucas actually didn't listen to his sister. I'm really upset. He clearly said he owed me a cheating..."

"What cheating?"

Smoker was confused, not understanding the meaning of Annina's words.

Annina didn't want to explain anything, she simply shook her head to express her meaning. This was a private matter between her and her brother. Although she had recognized Smoker's efforts and talents, the relationship between them was limited to classmates and friends now.

There are only three of them in the trial trainees in Dad's [Ode] training camp, and they are all registered under his name as students.

"What about you? What do you think? Do you want to hang out with me in the future? After graduation, let's go and kill the gangsters all over the world for fun."

"This... isn't good. Lucas is my friend after all. I don't support him becoming a gangster, but..."

Smoker sat down to rest, humming for a long time but couldn't think of the following words, he didn't know what it was.

To be honest, being from Rogue Town, he had a very bad impression of gangs. This deep-rooted concept made him and Lucas fight each other the first time they met.

But in the end, he was "moved" by the idea envisioned by Lucas, and the two became friends and no longer discussed the unpleasant topic that had already ended.

"Oh, forget it! What was that black thing you just had? How did it get stuck on your hand? It looks like a person in an animation that I saw on a giant Den Den Mushi."

Smoker changed the subject and asked, looking at Annina's arm which had recovered.

Her fist that had hit the iron pillar had become red and swollen, and Annina was applying the ointment she carried with her.

Although he accidentally awakened the Armament Haki, his young body was a weakness. It was not without cost that he almost punched through a half-meter thick iron pillar.

She could feel that her fist bones were broken and it might take a long time to recover.

"This is called Armament Haki. My father said it's a symbol of strength. It seems I'm a genius too. I'm actually so powerful?"

"A symbol of strength? So you are considered strong now?"

Smoker stroked his chin, then compared Annina to Rose in his mind, and then compared himself to Annina.

Then, an embarrassing face appeared on its face, and he was surprised to find that he might be killed by Annina's punch just now.

"Don't be discouraged, brother Smoker. You may not be as strong as me, but if you are willing to become my subordinate, I will definitely take good care of you in the future!"

Without Lucas around, Annina, who had never been very angry with him, became active again. She was just a little worried about her brother's future.

Smoker shook his head and said bluntly:
"I still say the same thing, I'm no worse than anyone else."

But this time, Smoker was not as confident as before, and it seemed more like he was encouraging himself.

………………

In the sky, a floating cloud mimicked Ross's big face. Just as Lucas guessed, as a father, he always stayed by the side of the three little ones to prevent any accidents.

He was not too upset about the strong talent displayed by his youngest daughter. After all, he already possessed the invincible Barrett. Apart from Big Mom, who else could be more talented than him?

But Ross felt a little sad in his heart.

I have four sons and two daughters, the only difference is the simple gender, but there is a world of difference between the two sides.

The sons did not show much talent in martial arts, but the two daughters showed inhuman strength since childhood.

When Mona was still a little kid, she could throw cannonballs with one hand. If Barrett hadn't shown up, based on that girl's personality, she would have been a big sister now. How could she be playful yet also a little bit gentle?

The youngest daughter was even better than her teacher. With some kind of will that rose up for some unknown reason, she directly awakened the Armament Haki.

But this domineering aura is very weak and is restricted by her physique. However, even the weakest armament domineering aura is enough for her to dominate the world.

"Smoker... No, I have to be on guard against this kid!"
