Detective: I'm Sato Miwako's Informant

Jinbe had already noticed Shiraishi's arrival, but at that moment he was giving the three of them special training and certainly wouldn't stop what he was doing because of this.

Therefore, after Shiraishi Xiu arrived, he did not make a special effort to entertain him.

Shiraishi Xiu didn't affect them; instead, he quietly observed the changes in the three of them over the past week.

They are now full of energy and spirit, and their faces are filled with hope again, compared to when they were just defeated by Quinn.

Bai Xiu knew that if they were to face Queen and Jack now, they wouldn't feel as disappointed as before.

Even if they are no match for them, they will not lose faith.

"As expected of Jinbe, his abilities are as formidable as ever!"

Shiraishi Xiu muttered to himself.

After waiting for a long time, Jinbe finally stopped what he was doing, came up to Shiraishi Shu, and said:

"Captain Shiraishi, you've arrived. Go and check on the progress of the three of them."

After saying that, he brought Shiraishi Shu to Buggy and the other two.

"Shanks, Crocodile, and the other two of you, try attacking Captain Whitestone together!"

After hearing Jinbe's words, the three hesitated for a moment before finally rushing towards Shiraishi after Shiraishi nodded.

Crocodile's body turned into a cloud of sand, while Buggy's body split apart. At the same time, Shanks drew his long sword from its sheath and slashed at Shiraishi.

Looking at the three men charging menacingly towards him, Shiraishi Xiu revealed a dismissive expression.

It seems that it won't be long before the three of them grow into powerful figures who can stand alone in their own right.

With people like them on his ship, even if the entire Marine Headquarters were to come out, Shiraishi Osamu wouldn't have any worries at all.

"Captain, be careful! Under Instructor Jinbe's tutelage, our strength has improved very rapidly this past week!"

The first one to rush to Shiraishi's side was actually Crocodile. He spoke to Shiraishi about the toilet.

"Haha, Old Crocodile, it seems you've learned a lot from Jinbe!"

Shiraishi Shu also threw a punch at Crocodile who was charging at him, but he didn't use his full strength.

He only used about 4% of his strength when fighting the three of them.

Even with 4% of that power, Crocodile and his two companions could still handle the situation.

Crocodile, who had already rushed in front of him, saw Shiraishi Shu throw a punch at him, and his body immediately turned into a cloud of sand and drifted to the side.

(Qian Wang Zhao) narrowly dodged his punch, and Bai Shixiu's fist grazed past his body.

"Captain, as I just said, we've learned a lot from Instructor Shengping this week. If you keep going at this speed, you definitely can't stop me!"

After Crocodile finished speaking, the body that had transformed into a sand house reappeared behind Shiraishi Shu. However, the moment it appeared, it immediately materialized and kicked Shiraishi Shu in the neck.

Chapter 0400: The Changes in the Three People

Although Shiraishi Shu didn't look behind him at Crocodile, his instinctive reaction told him that Crocodile's kick was going to be aimed at his neck, so he immediately raised his right hand to block his neck.

"boom!"

Crocodile's right leg collided with Shiraishi's arm, producing a loud bang.

Under the attack of this kick, both Shiraishi Osamu and the other person took a step back to the side.

Because Shiraishi Xiu did not use his full strength to defend, this kick, which was filled with immense power, actually made him take a step back to the side.

867 "Captain, I told you so, didn't I? We've made a lot of progress this week. Be careful, the attack from the other side is coming again!"

After Crocodile retreated, his body turned into a cloud of dust. He needed to find an opportunity to continue attacking Shiraishi during the lull between the two attacks.

No sooner had Crocodile finished speaking than Buggy, on the other side, had already taken his signature throwing knife and was about to stab Shiraishi in the shoulder.

Shiraishi Osamu sensed the danger emanating from where Buggy was and immediately took a step back, narrowly avoiding Buggy's attack.

The throwing knife pierced through his chest, even cutting a gash in his clothes.

"Haha, Captain, you'd better watch out! Show us your full strength! I know you're holding back, but with this kind of power, you definitely can't be a match for the three of us combined!"

This time, it was Bucky who spoke to Bai Shixiu, and he also marveled at the changes he had undergone in the past week.

But Bucky could clearly sense that this wasn't the strength Captain Shiraishi had displayed before.

The captain must have held back a lot of his strength when dealing with them.

Otherwise, no matter how much they learned in that week, they wouldn't have been able to force the captain into such a dangerous situation.

"Haha, Bucky is very good. It seems you've learned a lot from Shengping. I'll be fighting you even more seriously from now on!"

"Captain, be careful of Shanks, he's almost upon you!"

After saying that, Buggy, like Crocodile, moved out of Shiraishi Shu's attack range.

When Shiraishi Xiu dodged Buggy's shattering knife, he didn't reveal any weakness.

So Crocodile is still waiting for such an opportunity. Bucky isn't stupid; he's just naturally lazy.

But what he learned during that week of training completely made up for his innate shortcomings.

He already knew what Crocodile was going to do when Crocodile concealed himself and left Shiraishi's side.

So when his attack missed, Bucky did the same thing. Now it remains to be seen whether Shanks will expose something about the captain.

If they wait until then, he and Crocodile will attack the captain together.

It's likely that only by using most of his strength at this moment could the captain possibly defend against or dodge the attack.

Shiraishi knew that Shanks would be much more difficult to deal with than them, so he had to pay even more attention to Shanks's long sword attack. He kept his eyes fixed on Shanks's figure charging towards him, as if trying to see every attack Shanks would make next.

Chapter 0401: Astonishing Changes

Shiraishi Xiu knew about the changes in the three of them during this period, and realized that he had been careless just now.

Shanks would definitely bring him a huge surprise, so when facing Shanks, Shiraishi Osamu used 60% of his strength.

Although Buggy warned Shiraishi to be careful of Shanks' attacks.

But he realized he had underestimated their growth; Shanks's slash was simply too fast.

Even if I were to use 60% of my strength now, I could only barely dodge it.

Faced with Shanks' lightning-fast longsword, Shiraishi Osamu's eyes also turned serious.

He quickly dodged to the side, but he still underestimated how powerful Shanks was now.

Although he wasn't hit by the long sword, Shanks still managed to cut off a tuft of hair from Shiraishi's head.

"Shanks, your strength has improved remarkably this week, but let's continue—I haven't said we'd stop yet!"

After speaking, Shiraishi Xiu stood still, his eyes scanning the three of them.

Although Shiraishi Osamu was far superior to the three of them.

But Shiraishi Osamu also knew that if he revealed his full strength...

That would be of no help in testing their progress over a period of time; by then, the three of them would still be crushed by Shiraishi Xiu.

However, Shiraishi Shusuke was too confident in himself.

Before he could even give the three a heads-up, the sand that Crocodile had transformed into had already appeared behind Shiraishi Shu.

Even Shiraishi Osamu himself was unaware of it, only suddenly sensing a hint of danger in his mind.

Knowing that this must be an attack launched by Crocodile who had suddenly disappeared, Shanks could only hastily dodge to the side.

"Old Sha, it seems you're not bad either. You were able to hide in the air for so long that I almost figured out your trick!"

After dodging Crocodile, Shiraishi Shu suddenly reached out with his right hand to grab at the cloud of sand.

After his attack missed, Crocodile immediately turned into Chen Mantian's sand again, trying to escape from Shiraishi Xiu's side.

But Shiraishi Osamu wasn't about to give him that chance; he covered his right hand with Armament Haki.

When his palm entered the swirling sandstorm, he pulled a person out from it.

0. Requesting flowers.......

The person struggling in his hands, isn't that Crocodile?

No matter how hard he struggled, he found that he could not break free from Shiraishi Xiu's giant hand.

Seeing that he could not break free, Crocodile gave up the idea of ​​continuing to struggle.

Crocodile suddenly raised his head and shot his gaze at Bucky and Shanks on the other side. The two of them immediately understood what Crocodile meant.

At this moment, Shiraishi Osamu had just captured Crocodile. If he chose to attack him at this time...

Only by releasing Crocodile could he withstand the attacks of both of them at the same time.

But if he doesn't put Crocodile down, he can only hold off one of them at most.

It all depends on what Shiraishi Shu will choose, and when he puts Crocodile down, Crocodile will seize the opportunity to launch a sneak attack on him.

With the combined efforts of the three, even someone as powerful as Captain Shiraishi Osamu would likely be distracted and unable to deal with them.

"It seems your teamwork has improved a lot. That's a good idea!"... (speech)

Chapter 0402: You Should Lose Weight

Shiraishi Xiu understood perfectly what the three of them meant!

My confidence in the special training they received grew even stronger.

Since they want to see how they choose, why not give them a surprise?

Everyone thought that Shiraishi Shu could only choose to defend and resist in this situation.

But Crocodile in his hand suddenly felt a tremendous force on his body, and then he was thrown out like a "867" sandbag.

Moreover, it was thrown in the direction that Bucky was charging towards.

Crocodile is currently in a forward-charging posture because he was thrown by Shiraishi.

In this position, and while suspended in mid-air, how could he possibly dodge the severed hand of Buggy that was charging at him?

Not only was Crocodile very meticulous, but even Buggy and Shanks were surprised that Shiraishi would choose such a method.

This could indeed disrupt their original plans, as they watched as the throwing knives in their hands were about to be thrown at Crocodile.

Bucky could only reluctantly control the split hand to send the throwing knife to the other side.
