Recruit Luffy at the start and build the strongest navy.

Before long, he arrived in front of Kyle, squatted down slightly, and instinctively reached out to pinch Kyle's cheek.

However, just as her hand was about to touch Kyle's face, she found that Kyle had suddenly disappeared, and at the same time, a faint voice came from behind her.

"Hey! You can look, but don't touch me! I'll accuse you of molesting a boy!"

! !

The voice from behind made Kuina's expression change drastically. Her previous thoughts vanished instantly, and she hurriedly turned around to see Kyle standing a few meters away, looking at her with a hint of disdain.

"When?!"

A look of horror crossed Guina's face.

As a swordsman, keen reflexes and keen observation are essential abilities.

In this respect, no one in the dojo could compare to her except her father, but she hadn't noticed at all when Kyle disappeared or when he appeared behind her.

"Who are you?!"

At this moment, Kuina's face was filled with solemnity. She no longer regarded Kyle as a cute little boy, but as a powerful person she could not deal with!

She didn't even need to fight; she already knew the outcome from the move the other party had just shown.

"My name is Kyle, and I'm a Marine!"

"The purpose of coming here is to recruit you, and that green-haired guy, into the Marines!"

Kyle got straight to the point and said it directly.

Upon hearing this, a look of shock appeared on everyone's faces.

"Recruitment? Navy?"

However, just a few seconds later, an exasperated voice came from the side.

"asshole!!"

"Who are you calling a 'green algae head'?!"

Looking in the direction of the sound, he saw Zoro staring at him with immense anger, wearing what he considered a very fierce expression.

Upon seeing this, Kyle couldn't help but smile.

Zoro?

No! It's Zoro, Zoro-chan!

Before meeting Zoro, based on his previous impressions, he could call him "Zoro-da," but after meeting him...

Approaching you now is the grandson of Fleet Admiral Sengoku, the disciple of Admiral Zephyr, the father of Hero Garp, the wielder of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit (Purple Lightning Form), a user of all three types of Haki, and the strongest genius in naval history who possessed Vice Admiral-level strength at the age of six—Kayl!

Tell me, what should you call me now?

"I'm talking to you, you green-haired brat. What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

Kyle crossed his arms, spoke calmly, and wore a slightly disdainful expression.

This infuriated Zoro!!

He charged at Kyle, brandishing a wooden sword and shouting things like "I'm going to kill you."

"Zoro, wait!!"

Kuina instinctively reached out and shouted.

She had no confidence in dealing with the child in front of her, let alone Zoro, who was no match for her.

Zoro approached Kael and swung his wooden sword horizontally.

But the next moment, when he realized that Kyle was not dodging or dodging, the strength in his hand suddenly weakened.

Ultimately, he just wanted to teach this brat a lesson.

However, what happened the next second made his pupils shrink instantly, and his eyes widened suddenly.

When his wooden sword touched Kyle, he didn't feel the sensation of hitting a solid object.

With a series of crackling sounds, Zoro's wooden sword sliced ​​straight through Kael's body.

Purple lightning flashed, and when Zoro swung the wooden sword out of Kael's body, a large part of the sword was gone, leaving only the hilt and a small part of the blade.

The gap was charred black, and wisps of black smoke were rising from it.

"This...this..."

Zoro looked at his wooden sword, his mouth agape, and stammered, unable to utter a single word.

What was happening before his eyes was somewhat beyond his comprehension.

Before he could think, Kyle raised his hand and reached out towards Zoro.

Zoro's eyes widened again as he stared at the hand reaching out to him.

He could clearly feel that Kyle's hand was moving slowly, but it arrived in front of him in an instant.

Snap your fingers, and you're done!

pat!

A crisp sound rang out, followed by Zoro's scream. He was thrown two meters away, crashing to the ground, clutching his forehead and yelling repeatedly:

"It hurts! It hurts so much!! It hurts, it hurts, it hurts!!!"

In an instant, everyone around instinctively took a step back, staring at Kyle with horrified expressions.

Zoro was already the strongest among them besides Kuina, and even he was defeated so easily, let alone the others.

"What happened?"

At this moment, a gentle male voice came from behind, and everyone's faces immediately lit up with joy as they all looked in the direction from which the voice came.

A man dressed in a gray yukata, wearing a haori, round-framed glasses, and with a smiling face appeared at the door of the house.

In an instant, everyone couldn't help but shout out excitedly:

"Master!!"

The newcomer was none other than Shimotsuki Koushirou, the master of the Isshin Dojo!

Kyle couldn't help but look at him curiously.

Shimotsuki Koshiro never made a move in the original work, but judging from what Shimotsuki Koshiro said in Zoro's memoir, everyone speculated that he was likely a hidden master.

No one would believe that someone who was approached by Ivankov and Long was a weakling.

At this moment, according to Kael's Observation Haki, Shimotsuki Koushirou, though outwardly gentle, was actually hiding his sharp edge.

Like a treasured sword that has been nurtured, it may not seem like much at first, but once it is unleashed, it can destroy the world.

It's confirmed! He's definitely a hidden master!

Kyle nodded to Koushirou and said:

"Hello, Mr. Koushirou, my name is Kyle, and I'm a Marine!"

"I apologize for disturbing you!!"

"Hello, Kyle!"

Koushirou greeted Kyle with a smile, then asked:

"I wonder why you've come to our temple...?"

Kyle smiled inwardly.

Koushirou overheard what he said earlier, and now he's pretending not to understand, huh?

It's okay! It's just a sentence anyway, and he doesn't care about wasting a little breath by repeating it.

"I've come to recruit your daughter, Kuina Shimotsuki, and your disciple, Roronoa Zoro, to become members of the Marines!"

"By the way, my grandfather is none other than Fleet Admiral Sengoku!"

!!!

Upon hearing this, Shimotsuki Koushirou's eyes twitched.

No?! You can forgive me for the first sentence, but what do you mean by the second one?

What? Trying to threaten me?

Unable to understand Kyle's thoughts, Shimotsuki Koshiro pondered for a moment before asking:

"Why did you recruit those two into the Navy?"

"How dare you say that!"

"Of course it's because they're talented! I don't have many other hobbies, I just love recruiting geniuses!"

"I think both Kuina and Zoro are incredibly talented and will definitely have a place in the world in the future, so it's natural that I admire their talent!"

Kyle spoke in a serious and logical manner.

But Shimotsuki Koushirou remained silent after hearing this.

You, who look younger than both of them, are talking about loving talent.

Ok……

That's a bit strange!

……
