Two days later.
Wang Shi left Loguetown in a hurry.
Because he received news that the Marine hero had returned to Windmill Village.
Shouldn't he take advantage of Dragon's attack to threaten and use this old bastard?
Three types of Haki, I'm coming!
Six Styles can't be missed either!
Also, Iron Fist Garp's subordinate, Bogat, is a powerful Grand Swordsman.
He can train Zoro and Saka.
These are all debts owed by Dragon, and Garp, as his old father, must repay them.
Otherwise, don't blame the Goa Empire for turning Windmill Village into a dump and making it restless!
Wang Shi left the four pirate slaves, Iron Bear, Zango, and the Meowban Brothers, with Bartolomeo.
"If you follow the Barto Club for one year, you will regain your freedom and become a member of the Goa Empire."
This was the hope Wang Shi left them.
And their bounties, like Edradgo's, had already been reported by Wang Shi to Marineford and canceled.
Considering the attitude of Garp and Bogat, the two Marines, towards pirates.
Wang Shi finally left Edradgo to assist Bartolomeo in unifying the East Blue underworld.
...
Several days later.
The Exile Emperor finally returned to the Goa Empire.
Queen Sally and a group of nobles came out to welcome their Emperor.
Wang Shi's injury in Loguetown this time had truly frightened them.
The rise and glory of the Goa Empire were now deeply intertwined with Wang Shi.
If something happened to Wang Shi, how could they hold onto such a vast territory?
"Wang, you're finally back!"
Queen Sally, like a swallow returning to its nest, threw herself into Wang Shi's arms.
This scene made Nami, Nojiko, and Kaya envious.
And the Sweetheart Queen, wearing a slave collar, looked at Queen Sally, this blonde beauty, with immense envy in her eyes.
She was also a blonde beauty, so why had she fallen to become a mere slave?
It truly was, comparing goods makes you discard them, comparing people makes you cry.
Amidst the overwhelming cheers in Goa Imperial Capital, Wang Shi and his group returned to the palace.
Wang Shi, of course, stayed with Queen Sally, while Eric, Van Auger, Zoro, and Saka naturally went to cultivate.
Nami and the others also went to study navigation, nutrition, and medical skills.
Baratie had arrived in the Goa Imperial Capital waters a few days ago to expand its market, and business was booming.
Now, Zeff had made plans to patrol and do business in the former Sasuba Kingdom waters and the Goa Imperial Capital waters.
Anyway, these waters were now the territorial waters of the Goa Empire, so they could travel freely and unimpeded.
There were also fewer pirates in this area, making business safer.
They were also waiting for Wang Shi to embark on his world tour, visiting the Allied Nations of the Four Seas, and summon Sanji to accompany the ship to search for ALL BLUE.
However, next, he would first have to overcome the war with the Germa 66 evil army before Wang Shi could begin his world journey.
If the Goa Empire couldn't defeat Germa 66, then everything would be for naught.
He and Sanji would both have to flee, escaping the pursuit of Germa 66.
However, for some reason, Zeff felt that Wang Shi would definitely win against Germa 66; it was his intuition.
...
That night, Wang Shi and Queen Sally were incredibly passionate, fully expressing their longing for each other.
Considering the Germa crisis, Wang Shi did not linger in the gentle embrace.
The next day, he directly took Eric, Van Auger, Zoro, and Saka to Windmill Village, which was within their national territory.
"Your Majesty, can we really train under the Marine hero's Grand Swordsman subordinate?"
Saka's eyes were filled with longing, and Zoro's eyes were full of fighting spirit.
"Let you truly witness the strength of a top-tier swordsman."
"The World's Greatest Swordsman, Hawkeye Mihawk, is much stronger than Bogat, the subordinate of Marine hero Iron Fist Garp."
"To challenge Hawkeye Mihawk, Zoro, you still need to train hard and see more of the world."
Wang Shi was determined to make good use of Iron Fist Garp and the others this time to atone for Dragon's sins.
"I wonder if there are any top-tier snipers on the Marine hero's ship?"
Van Auger also wanted to improve; previously, growing as a Bounty Hunter alone was too slow.
Eric didn't know if there was anyone who could teach him, but meeting more important figures was always a good thing.
...
A few hours later.
At Makino's Pub in Windmill Village.
Village Chief Woop and the pub owner Makino respectfully served the illustrious Goa Emperor.
Several villagers had already rushed up Colubo Mountain to call Garp back.
Wang Shi and his group saw Iron Fist Garp's dog-head battleship and the elite Marines under the Marine hero.
"That Marine officer wearing a cowboy hat, is he the Marine hero's subordinate?"
Green-haired Zoro stared intently at the Marine officer in a brown suit, leaning against the railing, resting, his cowboy hat pulled down, covering his eyes.
But Zoro could feel the sharp sword intent emanating from this Marine.
Bogat also seemed to sense that a swordsman was watching him.
He looked up, pushed his cowboy hat back, and a pair of deep and sharp eyes looked towards Zoro and Saka.
"Two brats, good sword intent."
Bogat only took one glance and lost interest.
Because they were too weak.
He didn't have time to go down and teach these brats a lesson.
However, on the King of Exile, Bogat felt a faint sense of crisis.
'King of Exile, have I already entered his ability range?'
Bogat frowned and instinctively used Armament Haki for defense.
He believed that Armament Haki could block any Devil Fruit ability.
If it couldn't be blocked, it was only because the Armament Haki was not strong enough.
The depth of Devil Fruit ability development and the strength of Armed Haki have always been a matter of who is stronger, who restrains whom.
Just like the abilities and techniques of the three Admirals, ordinary Armament Haki cannot block them.
Even mid-to-high level Armament Haki might not be able to block a single punch from Admiral Akainu.
Because Sakazuki had developed the Magma-Magma Fruit ability to a terrifying degree.
Furthermore, Admiral Akainu's dual Haki and physical combat skills were also not weak.
Perhaps Admiral Akainu could defeat most Marine Vice Admirals with just Haki, physical combat, and sword skills.
"Ah hahaha! The Goa Emperor wants to see me? Is he looking for trouble with me?"
Before the person arrived, his voice did, a deep laugh echoing down from the mountain, and it even carried Haoshoku, specifically pressuring Wang Shi and his group.
In an instant, Eric was the first to fall to his knees, hands on the ground, and Saka was the second, using Snow Stroll to support himself, cold sweat pouring down.
Van Auger also gritted his teeth, leaning against the wall, forcing himself not to fall.
And Zoro held his sword tightly, standing firm.
He had already experienced the Haoshoku of the green-robed man and Wang Shi in Loguetown; he would not be so pathetic again.
"Garp! Are you going to attack me like Dragon did!"
Wang Shi roared in anger, a powerful aura erupting.
In an instant, all the villagers in Makino's Pub fell to the ground, eyes rolling back, and even some elite Marines at the port collapsed.
"Argh! Don't use Haoshoku if you don't know how; you'll hurt them!"
Garp, who had intended to give Wang Shi a warning, saw Wang Shi also unleash Haoshoku, indiscriminately knocking out so many people, and immediately started grumbling.
And Bogat stared intently at Wang Shi, who was unleashing Haoshoku, and Zoro, who remained standing.
He felt not only tenacious sword intent but also a faint will of conviction from this green-haired brat.
Could this brat also have the potential of a King?
And seeing Wang Shi's cold expression, he felt that something was about to happen.
