One Piece: The Max-Level Blacksmith of Marineford

Chapter 50 Teaching Assistant Iron Hammer, Thoroughly Wicked

"As for the fact that Roger's pirate ships were equipped with jet propulsion, this discovery is very important."

"Be more vigilant in the future."

The laughter subsided, and the office became serious again. Even the three admirals, including Air Admiral Kong, hadn't paid much attention to the problem of the Roger Pirates.

After all, Roger was a bastard who was always adrift, and the pirate ship built from the Adam Wood was incredibly powerful.

Only that bastard Garp could keep up with him every day.

"Hmph, when I see that bastard Roger again, I'll make him pay."

"Speaking of which, the weapons that Iron Hammer kid makes are really useful."

"Roger usually annoys me with his broken sword, but now that I have the Shattering Wind Gauntlets, I can annoy him back. It's really vented my anger!"

"Hahahahaha!"

Garp is absolutely enamored with the Shattering Wind Gauntlets, and he wears them on his hands all the time, making Sengoku's lips twitch as he watches.

Not only him, but even Old Man Kong still carries that long sword at his waist.

Gee tut.

"Yeah...that's true."

"Alright then, Sengoku, don't assign any more sea voyages to Iron Hammer for the time being. Let him stay at home and work on his ironworks for a while."

"Iron Hammer, what do you think?"

The hammer, who had been so numb that he was lost in space, was instantly pulled back to reality.

"Great! I have a lot of new ideas I want to try, so staying at headquarters is the best option!"

Seeing Iron Hammer's face turn as red as a chameleon, the men couldn't help but wipe away their sweat.

"Iron Hammer, don't get too cocky. Staying at headquarters is fine, but you can't just be a blacksmith all by yourself."

Iron Hammer: ...I knew I wouldn't let him off so easily.

“Zeffa’s elite training camp is short of a teaching assistant.”

"The equipment you crafted, according to Zefa, can greatly help in learning the Six Styles, so I'll just assign you to be a teaching assistant and help Zefa with it."

Training elites?

The image of him single-handedly taking on a hundred people flashed through his mind, and he suddenly felt his fist getting hot.

This is a good thing.

From that day on, he understood why Mr. Zephyr always liked to beat him up.

That kind of beating under the guise of helping you is really addictive and incredibly satisfying.

"Okay! No problem! It's just a teaching assistant position! I'll bring plenty of equipment when I report to Professor Zephyr!"

Iron Hammer's sudden burst of enthusiasm startled everyone.

"Hey? Is Salty Fish Hammer finally going to rise up?"

"Excellent, that's what a good navy should look like!"

Sengoku was very satisfied with Iron Hammer's current state, which was full of passion.

Unfortunately, little did he know that the hammer was designed to torment people.

He can also use these elites as guinea pigs to test some of his new gadgets.

"Now that we've covered the tasks, let's talk about something else."

"Iron Hammer, what are the chances of your rapid-fire guns and Miao swords becoming widely available?"

The main event is coming.

That's the main reason why the hammer was called in.

"The rapid-fire gun is a type of weapon similar to the Shattering Wind Gauntlets. It has certain attributes granted by my Devil Fruit ability, so it's unlikely to become widespread."

"The Miao sword is easier to make. All I need to do is forge the steel plate that I modified. Even if I don't make the Miao sword, I can make it into a standard longsword."

"As for forging, special steel plates are extremely hard, and it would be quite difficult for other blacksmiths besides me to forge them."

Iron Hammer's words silenced Marshal Kong, General Sengoku, and Chief of Staff Ms. Tsuru.

They witnessed the power of the repeating gun and the Miao sword, and were truly shocked.

They were thinking about how much improvement it would bring if the two weapons could be widely adopted by the navy.

It can definitely provide unprecedented assistance in stabilizing the ocean.

But after Iron Hammer explained it to them, they realized just how difficult it was.

"Hey, guys, don't worry. It's hard to say about the rapid-fire guns, but I still have a shortcut with the Miao swords."

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone, including Garp, had a glint in their eyes and stared straight at Iron Hammer.

A devilish smile appeared on Iron Hammer's face, which was extremely frightening.

"Brother Iron Hammer! You're back!"

In the evening, Shirley returned to her and Hammer's home after a day of training.

Pushing open the door, I saw Tiechui cooking, and I was instantly overjoyed.

"Ah. I just got back today. After my report to the authorities, I bought groceries. I'm cooking for a certain little leopard right now."

"Hey Hey."

A white-haired girl was giggling and skipping around.

Sherry was overjoyed when Hammer returned, after all, in Sherry's eyes, Hammer was her only family.

"Go wash your hands. Look at you, you're covered in mud after a day of training."

"Tch, it's all because Teacher Zefa is too strict. Every day he makes us run, jump, and box, plus there are boring academic classes."

"This is so incredibly annoying..."

"Oh? Is that so? Little Shirley, I didn't expect you to have such a big problem with this old man!"

Just as Shirley was complaining about the training camp, a deep voice rang out from outside the door.

Sherry and Hammer were so frightened that they both trembled.

Iron Hammer was so frightened he almost dropped the rice spoon in his hand.

"Old man! Can you please stop talking so loudly all of a sudden? You scared me to death! My braised beef almost went down the drain!"

Iron Hammer glared at Zefa as he walked in, then quickly steadied the beef in the pot.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading!

"Haha, Iron Hammer, I heard you did a great job on this mission, but you still got swindled out of 9000 million Berries?"

Zefa swaggered into the room, pulled up a chair and sat down at the dining table, watching Iron Hammer cook with a smile on his face.

"Hmph! Can we please not bring this up? I'll get my revenge sooner or later!"

"Hahahaha! You little rascal, you've been smart all your life but made a foolish mistake this time, actually going to the black market to buy bullets. Who else would they rip off if not you?"

"By the way, Sengoku told you about the teaching assistant thing, right?"

First, Tiechui took the beef out of the pot, then took a bowl and chopsticks, and then pulled out a chair to sit down.

"Yes, I said yes, I agreed. It's just a teaching assistant position, right? Thinking about those lovely junior students, I'm actually quite happy!"

Iron Hammer made no attempt to hide his excitement.

Zefa was speechless.

"Speaking of which, Mr. Zeff, why are you wearing boxing gloves to a meal, just like Vice Admiral Garp???"

Yes, Zephyr was still wearing the Shattered Wind Gauntlets, the black gloves were covered in dust, and he hadn't taken them off.

Zefa laughed heartily.

"It's really useful. You wouldn't believe it, but with these boxing gloves, I occasionally run out to Sengoku's window and punch him."

"You didn't see the expression on Sengoku's face, hahahaha!"

Iron Hammer: ....Sure enough, a bastard can't be a bastard all by himself, these three are such a bunch of clowns.

"Let's eat, Shirley, why are you taking so long to wash your hands?"

Hammer was too lazy to say anything more and urged Sherry to eat quickly.

Suddenly, a white-haired girl appeared at the dining table, looking somewhat embarrassed.

After all, it would be embarrassing for anyone to be caught talking badly about someone behind their back.

"Teacher Zephyr, how's Sherry's training going lately?"
