One Piece: Starting with Breathing Techniques

"Is this the power of a leader?"

The crowd erupted in cheers as they witnessed the devastating attack, their eyes filled with awe.

"No matter how many times I watch it, it's always so breathtaking!" Ivankov exclaimed.

He had rarely seen a dragon unleash this move; each time, its power was almost earth-shattering, inspiring awe in all who beheld it.

During a casual conversation with Long, he learned that Long had learned this move from his father's iron fist.

"However, the Chief of the General Staff's strength should not be underestimated!"

"A well-informed revolutionary army cadre exclaimed in amazement, attracting the attention of a group of people around him."

"I happened to witness Vice Admiral Sakazuki take action during a mission I was on before."

"He is a Logia-type Magma-Magma Fruit user, and his first move is a terrifying eruption of magma."

"However, if we're only talking about destructive power, the Chief of the General Staff is probably even more superior!"

"Furthermore, the current Chief of the General Staff hasn't gone all out yet; he's just getting used to his body!"

"I estimate that even a bounty of one billion is insufficient to reflect Lord Kiro's true strength!"

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately began to discuss it, and they all expressed their admiration for Kilo.

"As expected of the Chief of the General Staff!"

"It seems our revolutionary army has gained another super-powerful force!"

On an open space not far away, Kiro stood still, savoring the Conqueror's Haki he had just experienced, lost in thought.

He was not discouraged by this completely irresistible blow.

Having mastered the dragon entwined with Conqueror's Haki, his strength is very likely to surpass that of the future Four Emperors, making him one of the top powerhouses in this world.

Losing to the dragon is not shameful at all.

As his thoughts raced, a sudden inspiration struck him.

Surrounded by the revolutionary army, Kiro's eyes burned with determination, showing no sign of discouragement. Instead, he turned to look at Big Bear.

"Big Bear, shall we have a spar?"

"Mr. Long is too strong, I haven't had enough fun yet!"

Everyone was surprised. Ginny and Robin exchanged a glance, and they saw surprise in each other's eyes.

Upon hearing this, Big Bear smiled slightly, stood up, and took off his coat.

"Since it's Mr. Kiro's request, I naturally won't refuse."

"Perfect timing, I haven't fought a swordsman yet."

Everyone was shocked, but their faces lit up with joy as they looked at the bear that had entered the arena. "What? There's a second round?"

"To witness two battles between top-tier experts, today's trip was truly worthwhile!"

......

The jet-black blade sliced ​​through the air, hovering first at the side of the bear's neck.

A fist enveloped in a shimmering white aura stopped just in front of Kiro's chest.

The slash, so fast it was almost invisible to the naked eye, was only slightly faster than the bear's attack!

Big Bear withdrew his fist with a look of amazement, "As expected of Mr. Kiro, you are indeed very strong!"

"I lost."

Kilo also withdrew his Dragon Slayer sword at the right time, patted the fist marks on his body, and looked somewhat disheveled.

After all, the strength of the bear and his opponent was not much different, and this evenly matched battle lasted for more than ten minutes before a winner was decided.

The difference between the two was negligible, but Kiro could clearly sense that Big Bear had slowed down.

The notification sound on the panel rang.

Bartholomew Bear defeated, points +372

Upon seeing the prompt on the panel, Kiro raised an eyebrow.

Given Xiong's strength, shouldn't he only have a little over 300 points?

Is it because this was just a friendly sparring match, rather than a real battle?

However, he didn't dwell on it too much. He nodded amicably to the bear and they walked together toward the dragon waiting not far away.

Ginny and Robin followed closely behind. Seeing Kiro and the other person approaching, Robin immediately blinked her big eyes and smiled:

"Kilo, you've become so strong!"

"As expected of our captain!"

Upon hearing this, Kiro flicked Robin's head in an annoyed manner.

Stop being so cheeky!

Of course, he didn't use Armament Haki for internal destruction.

Robin winced in pain, clutching his head, and cried out in dissatisfaction:

"Sister Ginny, look what he's doing to me!"

Ginny smiled helplessly and patted Robin's head.

Seeing this scene before him, Kilo smiled genuinely.

Sure enough, Robin, who had never experienced fleeing and despair, was still that innocent and carefree little girl.

This warm feeling touched his heart.

Long, who had been watching from the sidelines, stepped forward and waved to the crowd.

"Everyone, go back now."

"Our sparring session should end here."

The revolutionary soldiers, watching their leader display astonishing power, raised their arms and cheered.

This young leader had already gained unparalleled prestige in their hearts, and had long since become the spiritual totem of the revolutionary army.

The impressive strength displayed in the sparring just now served as a calming agent for them.

With such a powerful leader, how could we not overthrow the cruel rule of the world government?

A moment later, the crowd gradually dispersed, leaving only a few revolutionary cadres in the center of the square, apart from the soldiers who were training.

Dragon spoke first, looking at Kiro with great admiration.

"As expected of the Chief of the General Staff I chose, you've thought of everything."

"In just one day, you demonstrated your strength through two sparring matches and successfully won the hearts of the revolutionary army."

"Kilo, you're excellent at this!"

Upon hearing this, Kilo was taken aback, scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly, and gave an awkward smile.

To be honest, he didn't think that much about it; he just wanted to get more points.

"Alright, let's get back to the main topic." Long cleared his throat. "Everyone, I have a daring plan!"

"What plan?" Ginny asked curiously.

A plan that the dragon calls audacious must be quite astonishing!

"Our Revolutionary Army has only been established for a short time, but although we are already able to contend with the World Government in some areas..."

"However, our reputation has not yet spread widely throughout the world."

"If our revolutionary army can carry out a revolutionary operation, let our name resound throughout the world..."

Dragon clenched his right fist, his eyes blazing with burning ambition.

"More righteous people will surely join our revolutionary army! Our chances of winning this struggle will be much greater!"

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment, and even the usually quiet and introverted Big Bear couldn't help but ask a question.

"Mr. Long, what kind of action are you referring to...?"

Long chuckled, but his words sent a shockwave through everyone present.

"I think……"

"Overthrow, Holy Land Mary Geoise!"

"We can take this opportunity to announce the existence and ideology of the revolutionary army to the world, and to liberate the trapped slaves."

"If the plan succeeds, the Celestial Dragons' inviolable myth will be shattered!"

"Our revolutionary army's reputation will resound throughout the world, attracting even more people of similar aspirations to join us!"

"However, this plan is far too dangerous, and I originally didn't want to carry it out..."

"But..." The dragon's gaze shifted to Kiro, his eyes filled with admiration.

"With Kilo involved, the success rate of this plan will greatly increase!"

"Kilo, what do you think?"

Upon hearing this, Kiro did not answer immediately, but instead lowered his head and pondered.

To be honest, this plan is very bold.

Mary Geoise is the exclusive residential area of ​​the Celestial Dragons!

It houses the headquarters of the World Government and commands powerful forces such as the Navy and CP intelligence agencies, making it incredibly strong.

In other words, judging solely from their paper strength, breaking into the Holy Land of Mary Geoise is a complete fantasy!

Given the current strength of the Revolutionary Army, this plan seems somewhat difficult, which explains why Dragon considers it extremely bold.

but……

Kiro stroked his chin, seemingly lost in thought.

If I remember correctly, in the original story, the fishman Tiger also wreaked havoc in the Holy Land of Mary Geoise in that year, freeing countless slaves and eventually escaping successfully.

This also suggests that the Holy Land of Mary Geoise may not be as dangerous as imagined!

If even the lone, unplanned fishman Tiger could do it, then there's no reason why the Revolutionary Army, with its meticulous plans and powerful combat strength, couldn't do it!

Kilo took a deep breath, feeling the immense power within him, and slowly spoke under the watchful eyes of the others.

"I completely agree!"
