One Piece: Trainers on the Straw Hat Pirates

In an instant, a pair of scarlet eyes appeared in her line of sight.

Zoro, who had somehow transformed into a half-dragon with three heads and six arms, spoke softly to his head:

"If only all gods were as weak as you..."

"In that case, I can storm Heaven and save the souls that have accidentally wandered in there."

Call ~

As soon as he finished speaking, Zoro let out a heavy breathing sound.

Several streams of white mist, imbued with a chilling death aura, suddenly spewed from his mouth.

Zoro whispered:

"Ghostly Aura, Nine-Sword Style, Asura, Dragon Breath, Divine Descent!!!"

sieve!!!

A seemingly ordinary ray of light suddenly flashed across the sky and disappeared.

The clouds still drifted, and the wind still howled.

It was as if nothing had happened.

but……

Boom!!!

Suddenly, a deafening roar, like a thunderclap, erupted from behind the Amyra Palace.

Behind her, on the Red Earth Continent that once represented the pinnacle of the world, a massive chasm suddenly appeared, like a long, narrow scar on the face of a god.

"No...this is impossible..."

At this moment, Amira's tone suddenly turned desolate as she faced Zoro.

The moment she finished speaking, the barrier of holy light around her shattered and vanished into the storm as starlight.

Immediately afterwards, the holy aura that had enveloped the Palace of Emirati rapidly faded, and the angel's wings shattered, turning into a lonely white feather that drifted downwards.

At that moment, a thin line of blood suddenly appeared near the waist of the Emirati Palace.

Immediately afterwards, Amyra Palace, who possessed top-tier royal vice-captain level combat power, suddenly split in two, splitting apart in mid-air.

Through the separated bodies, one could still clearly see a three-sword style swordsman wielding a long sword, his entire body exuding a blood-black ghostly aura...

Roronoa Zoro!!!

Chapter 303: To wield the sword is to forge my destiny! (Seeking monthly votes~)

"That bastard..."

"He's gotten even stronger!!!"

On the edge of the raging storm, Sanji, his hair gently lifted by the wind, took the cigarette from his mouth and uttered a familiar sentiment.

In an instant, a flame called fighting spirit rose in his eyes and spread throughout his body like an electric current.

He won't... admit defeat so easily!!!

But the next second, a look of desolation suddenly appeared on Sanji's face.

He looked at the Palace of Amyra, which had been cut in half but was not completely dead yet, but was already like a candle in the wind falling towards the sea below, and let out a long sigh.

Although he is close to women and willing to forgive women's lies, it does not mean that he will forgive beings like the Celestial Dragons.

Tonight, Sanji rescued many slaves, but also witnessed many tragedies within the Celestial Dragons' mansion.

Those shocking scenes were something even he couldn't forgive before the Amyra Palace, which was protecting the Celestial Dragons!

Just as Crimson said...

This world should not have beings like the Celestial Dragons!

……

……

"Is it alright, algae-headed guy!?"

As the battle ended, Sanji used a Cero to appear directly next to Zoro.

Clang!

Zoro, having reverted to his Pokémon form, released Zacian and the Sandai Kitetsu into his Zanpakuto, a sudden smile spreading across his face, revealing an excited expression:

"Of course!"

"I'm... better than ever before!"

As he spoke, he suddenly turned his gaze to the red earth continent that had been torn open by a huge crack.

"Sexy cook..."

"Ok?"

Upon hearing Zoro's call, Sanji instinctively responded softly, then immediately realized something and burst into a tirade:

"You bastard, who are you calling a lecherous chef?!"

However, Zoro seemed not to hear him and continued to laugh to himself:

"I think I've... found a way to awaken the Steel attribute!"

"What!?"

Sanji, who had originally wanted to confront Zoro for his rudeness, changed his expression instantly upon hearing this.

A look of surprise flashed across his face, but it was quickly replaced by a deep sorrow.

"Ah, congratulations~ Hehe~" Sanji replied perfunctorily, but his body subconsciously began to mobilize the dragon attribute energy within him.

Unfortunately……

Compared to Zoro, who has exceptional comprehension and can awaken his dragon attribute simply through sheer force of will, Sanji takes a more experiential approach.

The path he should take is to constantly push his body, which possesses unlimited potential, through long-term high-pressure training and practice, in order to explore the power of miracles within it.

So even if he saw Zoro's sudden outburst, he couldn't have a flash of inspiration and awaken his own dragon attribute, which he hadn't yet mastered.

However, although they pursue different methods, this does not prevent Sanji from learning from Zoro to gain more experience.

"So... why can't you awaken your steel attribute?" Sanji asked curiously.

After all, even when he awakened, he awakened both attributes at once.

Zoro, whose comprehension is far superior to his, has no reason not to be able to do this.

"That's because I went in the wrong direction from the very beginning!"

Zoro promptly refused.

As he spoke, a glint suddenly flashed in his eyes.

Zoro first glanced at Sanji teasingly, then, without holding back, said directly:

"In the first few days after Red brought me into the Pokémon world, I asked Red about Pokémon types."

"He said at the time that the way Pokémon types are determined is very strange and there is no set rule."

"The only thing we can be sure of is... our Pokémon types are absolutely the most suitable power for us!"

"Hmm... I've also discussed this issue with Crimson."

Sanji nodded in agreement upon hearing this, and then added:

"Crimson said that my fire attribute might originate from the mysterious power within my body, while my fighting attribute comes from my combat habits."

"Luffy's normal form is his body, while his fairy form is his Devil Fruit ability. Usopp's insect and grass forms are due to his personality and some kind of destiny..."

"So...did you discover anything!?"

Sanji, who hadn't had high hopes, suddenly became excited and looked at Zoro with bright eyes.

After all, if Zoro had only discovered the method to awaken his own attributes, he could only listen to it for amusement and summarize his experience.

But if Zoro has figured out the patterns of Pokémon types, then he'll have to listen carefully!

This could very well be... a martial arts manual that could grant the entire Straw Hat Pirates, and even everyone who has been given a Pokémon attribute by Red!

Zoro smiled slightly, finding it rare to see Sanji so excited, especially because of him. His enthusiasm for the speech immediately grew even stronger.

"Because this conversation happened several months ago, I had long forgotten about it."

"But just now... I finally realized it!"

Clang~

Zoro suddenly raised the Wado Ichimonji in his hand and showed it to Sanji:

"Since our Pokémon's attributes come from a variety of reasons, even the same attribute can be expressed in different ways."

"Then why must the awakening of attributes affect our bodies?!"

"Hmm!?" Sanji was taken aback for a moment, then a thoughtful look flashed across his eyes, as if he had been completely drawn into Zoro's world.

Zoro continued, "Do you remember what we have in common when we awaken our attributes!?"

"Your flames and fighting, my dragon, and Luffy's..."

"You'll find that once these attributes are awakened, they all affect our bodies."

"My body even transformed into a dragon-like form, just like a Zoan-type Devil Fruit user."

"This method can indeed make us stronger."

"However... is the path that makes us stronger necessarily the right one!?"

"........."

Guided by Zoro's words, Sanji's contemplative expression deepened.

He silently lit a cigarette, listening to Zoro recount his past.

"Although I successfully merged Wado Ichimonji and the others with me using my steel-attribute abilities, this also led me into a quagmire of mistakes..."
