The Six Paths Sage of the Rocks Group

This... is the second stage of Armament Haki!

Compared to the armament color in the first stage, the armament color is after reaching the second stage.

Both the hardness and defense have been greatly enhanced!!!

Now, having mastered the mid-level Armament Haki and Observation Haki, El's overall strength has become even stronger!

"Hmm? You, your talent is even more terrifying than I thought."

Rocks was slightly surprised to see that under his guidance, El had advanced his Armament Haki to the second stage.

Although, he did seriously guide El's training in Armament Haki.

But... Armament Haki is, after all, one of the most practical abilities in this world.

How many people are unable to come into contact with Armament Haki in their entire lives.

There are also many people who, even if they have initially mastered the Armament Haki, cannot get any further even after spending their entire lives.

And with just some guidance from him, El suddenly realized the truth and promoted his Armament Haki to the second stage.

With such talent and understanding, even Rocks couldn't remain completely calm.

"Thank you, Captain Rocks. If it weren't for you, it would take me a lot of time to raise my Armament Haki and Observation Haki to a higher level." Al said with a smile.

"You guy, have you even realized the higher level of Observation Haki?" Rocks was stunned again when he heard what El said.

Good guy, under my guidance, he even gained enlightenment of Armament Haki.

How come even his Observation Haki has become stronger?

"It would be interesting if you were born in the same age group as me. I believe that you would be my strongest stumbling block on my road to dominance." Rocks smiled unconsciously.

Rocks was indeed surprised by the strength of El's talent.

At this moment, he couldn't help but wonder what would have happened if Al and he were born at the same age, started out at the same time, and became pirates.

So...in the end, who will stand at the top of this world?

If Rocks is compared with people like Whitebeard, Golden Lion, and Charlotte Linlin.

Then Rocks is very confident and thinks that even if he is in the same age group as these people, he is still the strongest.

But compared to Al, he was somewhat...hesitant!

However, now is not the time to think about these things.

Because now he has reached the top, and no matter how talented and intelligent Al is, he is still much weaker than him.

It's a good thing for Al that he has such talent.

Because if El is allowed to grow up, their Rocks Pirates will have another great general.

Hope will increase in our future world domination.

"Just kidding, Captain Rocks." Al chuckled.

If Al and Rocks were born in the same age group, Al would be 100% confident that he could surpass Rocks.

After all, Rocks is so strong.

Is his system strong???

"That's all for today's training, Al. If you need any guidance in the future, you're welcome to come to me again." Rocks instructed.

"I see."

After tasting the sweetness under Rocks' guidance, if Al encounters a bottleneck in the future, he will naturally look for Rocks for guidance again.

After all, he is personally guided by Rocks, the strongest man in the world of this era.

Who would refuse such a thing?

"Don't let me down in the future." Rocks patted Al's shoulder, left with these meaningful words and left.

"How can you not trust me?"

Looking at Rocks's departing back, Al smiled helplessly.

However, it is normal for Rocks to be worried, after all, all the pirates on the ship have their own ulterior motives.

And Al naturally did not stay there any longer and prepared to return to his room.

But when he was about to reach his room, he saw a very familiar man standing at his door through the moonlight.

"Hmm? What's up, Edward Newgate?"

That’s right, the person standing in front of El’s door is none other than the future strongest man in the world, Whitebeard!

However, if you think about it, Eru just joined the Rocks Pirates today.

He had never even had a conversation with Whitebeard, so the two sides were not familiar with each other at all.

Now, Whitebeard was standing at his door, which really confused Al.

.........

Brothers, I beg for flowers and monthly tickets.

Chapter 16 Whitebeard: Rocks is dangerous (asking for flowers)

Hearing what Al said, Whitebeard tilted his head slightly, then threw the wine in his hand to him, crossed his arms in front of his chest and spoke frankly.

"Why did you join the Rocks Pirates, El?"

"Um????".

After taking the wine thrown by Whitebeard and hearing Whitebeard's question, Ai was suddenly confused.

Why are so many people talking to him today, his first day on board?

First, Golden Lion and Charlotte Linlin wanted to win him over directly.

Later, it was Rocks who saw his potential and reached a condition with him.

Now, Whitebeard appeared at the door of his room again and said these words for no apparent reason.

"What on earth do these guys want to do???" Al sighed helplessly in his heart and said secretly.

The reason why he joined this ship was very simple: to become stronger and to find the devil fruit.

However, in the face of Whitebeard's inexplicable words, Al did not respond, but asked back.

"Before asking this question, Captain Edward, I think you should first answer why you appeared at the door of my room."

"It's not a big deal, I just thought I should tell you something."

"Oh?"

The expression on Al's face changed slightly, and he chuckled and said, "What do you want to warn me about?"

"Locks is very dangerous. I advise you not to get too close to him. Don't expect him to promise you anything. If you touch his interests, he won't remember what he promised you."

"I see you are still young and don't understand the dangers of this sea and the wickedness of human hearts." Whitebeard walked up to him, patted Al's shoulder, and said seriously.

The reason why Whitebeard appeared at the door of Al's room tonight and said these words to him.

That's because, in the morning, Al rejected the attempts of Golden Lion and Charlotte Linling to win him over.

An act of not associating with anyone and intending to survive alone in the Rocks Group.

This point... made Whitebeard quite touched!

Looking back, Whitebeard joined the Rocks Pirates in search of companions and family.

But...when he arrived at the Rocks Pirates, Whitebeard was completely disappointed with the people on this ship.

Because, it is not just Rocks himself who has the ambition to dominate the world.

As for the other people on the ship, whether they were cadres or crew members, they were all harboring rebellious intentions. They were confronting each other everywhere, killing and plundering each other. The whole ship was filled not with warmth, but with a sense of oppression and bloodiness.

This also led to the fact that Whitebeard refused to be recruited by anyone and disdained to associate with anyone.

Today, seeing that El did something similar to what he did back then, Whitebeard developed some favorable feelings towards him.

So I came here specifically to remind Al that whether to listen or not is up to his own choice.

Al looked at Whitebeard and smiled. He never expected that Whitebeard would say these words to him.

Whitebeard is a good person and he values ​​friendship. There is no harm in getting closer to him.

However, as for...what kind of person Rocks is, Al once knew it very clearly from a God's perspective.

Therefore, in his opinion, Whitebeard's advice was completely unnecessary.

"Well, no matter what, it's your own choice, Al." Whitebeard didn't say anything more, just left after leaving these words.

In the final analysis, Whitebeard still doesn't know what kind of person Al is.

But...because I felt that I had something in common with Al, I came forward and said these words for some unknown reason.

The reason why Whitebeard is like this is because he has been in this dangerous pirate group for a long time.

But his determination to find his companions and family has never changed!

If possible, Whitebeard would really like to make a drinking partner in the Rocks Pirates.

Watching Whitebeard's departing back, Al shrugged helplessly.

"Edward Newgate... Whitebeard???"

After muttering to himself, Al didn't care too much. He stretched, unsealed the wine in his hand, drank it all in one gulp, then lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

..........

The next day

The sunlight shone through the window onto Al's body. Al stretched, got up, washed his face, and then went out.

However, when he went out and came to the deck, he noticed that a large number of crew members were sitting on the deck, talking, as if they were discussing something interesting.

Curious, Al also came over.
