One Piece: Starting from Awakening the Cosmo at Marineford

Aaron sighed and followed behind Akainu.

Lark was a little flustered, unsure whether he should follow.

Upon entering the office, Aaron noticed a crossbody bag next to Akainu's desk, containing a brown teddy bear.

Akainu picked up his satchel, gently placed it aside, and then let out a heavy snort:

"I'm warning you, don't get any funny ideas, and don't bully Hibari, or I'll smash your head in!"

Aaron coughed. "General Sakazuki, you can rest assured. Hibari is still just a child."

Akainu is worried that his little cabbage will be stolen.

This is really unfair, and it's clear that the lark is the "yellow-feathered" one.

In the world of One Piece, where waves are everywhere, why bother looking for a naive, immature girl?

Akainu squinted: "Hmph! And you know what will happen if Hibari loses even a single hair!"

Aaron immediately protested, "Admiral Sakazuki, you're putting me in a difficult position. We're marines, we fight pirates. Even without fighting, everyone loses dozens of hairs a day on average. Of course, bald people are an exception."

Akainu said in a deep voice, "Stop grinning at me like that, get lost!"

"Also, the money you borrowed will be deducted from your salary!"

Akainu was worried that the money he lent to Aaron would be gone forever, so he simply deducted it from his salary.

Aaron went outside and saw Lark again at the door. He nodded to her and left.

At 1 p.m., Aaron went to the classroom next to the training field.

There were seven people in the classroom, and Karp stood on the podium.

"Before I teach you the Six Styles and the Overbearing Aura, I'll give you a lesson first."

"On an island teeming with wild beasts, there lived an old man and a child."

You are going to rescue someone alone in a boat that can only carry two people. Who would you choose to save?

Soon, Coby stood up: "Mr. Karp, I think the old people and children should leave by boat, and I will stay on the island so that they can all be saved."

Garp roared, "Fools! Remember, you are the future of the Navy! Just abandon this old man who won't live much longer!"

Koby said in a tearful voice, "No, if that's the case, Grandpa will..."

Garp shouted, "If we don't hurry, everyone will be eaten by wild beasts! Tell me, what did you join the Navy to save?"

Koby was so startled by Garp's roar that he fell back into his chair.

Bellemere was also a little frightened, and was speechless.

Gross and Peacock remained relatively calm, but seemed unwilling to listen to Garp's lecture.

Hibari looked around, as if avoiding Garp's gaze, or perhaps searching for something.

Aaron slowly stood up: "Lieutenant General Garp, I disagree with your statement."

Garp laughed heartily: "Kid, your name is Aaron, right? You beat up Straw Hat Luffy and saved the Navy's face, not bad. Tell me your thoughts!"

"My idea is to let the elderly and children leave, and I will stay on the island."

The navy's duty is to protect civilians and safeguard peace. In my eyes, there is no distinction between young and old among civilians. As long as they are civilians, I should rescue them, not abandon the elderly on the island as you suggested.

Garp narrowed his eyes, a glint in them: "You'll die if you do that."

"It's my duty."

Garp had a sudden inspiration: "What if this old man is also a Marine?"

Aaron laughed and said, "Then we should save them even more! The veteran has already dedicated his youth; we can't let him sacrifice his life too! Besides, the veteran is also a comrade-in-arms; never abandoning or giving up is my principle."

Garp was stunned. Although he had always done it this way, it was all based on intuition, without carefully considering the reasons behind it.

Hearing Aaron say "Never give up, never abandon" is like suddenly breaking through a windowpane, instantly illuminating what was previously blurry.

Karp scratched his head and laughed heartily, "What you said actually makes a lot of sense!"

Aaron sat down and felt the peacock's admiring gaze; the peacock's gaze was one of appreciation.

Gross gave it only a casual glance, while Koby's expression was complex.

Bellemere, however, was indignant and muttered under his breath, "Anyone can talk a good game..."

Karp never expected that his first time teaching students after stepping down from his position would result in him being taught a lesson by them.

"You really are always learning, no matter how old you are..."

Garp didn't take it to heart and said loudly, "Alright, now I'll explain the basic theory of the Six Powers."

The Six Forms is a comprehensive and systematic cultivation system.

Shave and Storm Kick, Moon Step are leg and foot techniques. Finger Gun is a hand technique. Iron Block and Paper Drawing are techniques for the whole body.

Moreover, finger pistols and iron blocks can be considered prerequisite skills for training Armament Haki.

Paper drawing, on the other hand, is a weapon skill used to cultivate Observation Haki.

Certainly, these two domineering auras will automatically awaken when they reach a certain level of strength.

However, it is also possible to master it in advance through cultivation.

As for the principle behind the Tempest Kick, it is similar to that of a swordsman's flying slash.

Therefore, within the navy, regardless of whether they specialize in kicking, punching, swordsmanship, or even spearmanship, the Six Styles are their foundational skills.

In terms of difficulty, shaving is the easiest exercise to learn. This is because the strength of the human leg is several times greater than that of the arm.

Then there's finger gun, iron body, Moonwalk, and Tempest Kick.

As for paper drawing, it is the most difficult to master because it goes against common sense.

The previous skills all taught people how to control their strength, but paper drawing does the opposite, requiring the whole body to relax and all muscles and joints to release their tension.

Marines who are used to toughening up their muscles and bones are often helpless when it comes to the skill of paper drawing.

Of course, for some powerful individuals at the vice admiral level, once they awaken Observation Haki, Paper Drawing becomes a useless skill.

Kapu gave a lengthy explanation of how to practice the Six Styles, as well as some tips and tricks.

By the time I finished speaking, it was already dark outside.

Karp said, "You guys go eat first, then head to the training field next door. You only have seven days, including today, so I have to hurry!"

Aaron got up and stretched.

"Senior Aaron, what you said earlier was excellent!"

The lark tilted its head back, its sea-blue eyes sparkling, and looked at Aaron with a hint of admiration.

Bellemere whispered from the side, "It's not about who can't do it, it's about how you do it."

Aaron said, "At least I won't be a deserter."

Helmeppo's expression changed, and Koby beside him also lowered his head in embarrassment.

Peacock followed and laughed, "Some people wouldn't even have such thoughts in their minds. It's already quite remarkable that they could say those words."

Gross nodded and said, "Aaron, you're absolutely right. I believe you would do the same. Even facing a legendary figure like Rayleigh, you protected everyone else. I trust you completely with my back to you!"
