In the waters of Kola Island, eighty kilometers away from the main island, there is a desert island that is only one-fifth the size of Kola Island.
On this desert island, two muscular men were fighting each other.
"Armed Fusion-Devil Form!!"
One of them was a strong man wearing a black military uniform. The black armed domineering energy on his body merged with his own ghost energy, and his entire body turned dark blue.
"Haha, Barrett, your fruit ability is not bad, so I won't be polite."
"Earth Armor!!"
On the other side, a strong man wearing a white military uniform had yellow and black armor condensed on his body. He exuded a sense of dignity. From a distance, he looked like an extremely sturdy heavy tank.
It was Lukar and Barrett who collided with each other with physical skills on this desert island.
The battle lasted until night, and ended with Barrett being knocked to the ground by the shock wave of Lukar's rock-breaking fist-gun. This time Lukar did not continue to pursue, because today was also a special day.
In the evening, Lukar arranged a party and invited all the soldiers on his warship to have a banquet and carnival.
Even if today is the last day of this year, after today it will be a new year in this world, it is 1492 years in the Haiyuan calendar.
As the last day of the new year, Lukar regards this day as a New Year's Day and wants to celebrate it with everyone.
In his mind, his crew members are considered relatives and friends. Basically, they will spend most of their lives together. Everyone puts their life and death on this ship together. Of course, they must take the opportunity to have a good reunion.
In the past few years in Xihai, Lukar was always alone. Especially at the time of the New Year, he felt even more lonely. There was no need to choose the New Year, a festival of reunion.
When he graduated from the Navy, he only drank a little with Zefa and Nishizawa on the New Year's Eve.
"Let's go back to the warship and have a drink together later."
Lukar pulled Barrett up from the ground and looked around the desert island. They had been training on this island for several months.
This desert island has no vegetation, only bare reddish-brown rocks, with protrusions all over the island.
Yes, this island is no longer the desert island where Lukar landed for the first time. This desert island is the third desert island training ground where he and Barrett trained.
Counting from the time when the two of them competed on the first desert island, more than half a year has passed now, and the year 1491 of the Haiyuan calendar is about to end.
As for why we came to the current desert island, we can only say that the other two previous desert islands no longer exist.
The two of them trained on the desert island for about three months at the beginning. Lukar felt that his armament and domineering power had greatly improved. His strongest "Starburst" ability could be maintained on his finger for three minutes. time.
It has increased three times compared to the first minute. The main reason is due to the improvement of armed color Haki. The powerful armed color Haki can firmly condense the power of the earth's core on the fingers and will not explode easily.
Then Lukar became a little ambitious and tried to condense the power of the earth's core into the entire palm of his right hand. Obviously, his purpose failed, and the first desert island became a victim of his experiment. Even Barrett almost drowned at that time. Die on that island.
Later, Lukar found a smaller uninhabited island in the north of Kola Island, only relying on the windless zone.
At that time, Barrett had already learned all the six navy styles, and he couldn't help but marvel at the opponent's talent in physical skills.
The Sixth Form of the Navy seemed to be something Barrett was born with. He only taught it once, and the opponent was able to simulate similar effects on the spot. After several practice sessions, he had learned all the techniques.
On the second island, due to the geographical advantage, the two used moon steps to reach the windless zone and began to search for Neptune monsters for battle training.
In less than two months, the two of them had killed many Neptune-like creatures, resulting in a large amount of Neptune-like blood in that area.
It attracted a large number of super-large sea kings to attack, and in the end, the poor little desert island was directly sunk by the sea kings.
Even Lukar narrowly escaped with the Moon Walk and almost died there. For the first time, he discovered that there are more terrifying existences in this world than the strong ones on land. Even the so-called power of nature , it is difficult to shake these super large sea kings.
He even began to suspect that in this pirate world with its vast ocean, these giant monsters on the bottom of the sea were the masters of this world and the real rulers of the planet.
At the most dangerous moment, a giant frog-like sea king jumped out of the sea and flew directly into the air to intercept the two men.
Fortunately, at the most critical moment, Barrett awakened the Overlord's Haki and knocked out Neptunemon, allowing Lucar and the two to escape successfully.
After that, Lukar canceled his plan to hunt the sea kings in the Windless Zone. He did not want to die directly in the mouths of these monsters.
Finally, the current island was found in a relatively remote location on Kola Island, which serves as a special training ground for the two and continues to this day.
Looking back on the past six months, Lukar felt that it was extremely precious to give Barrett and himself enough time to strengthen themselves.
Without any interference, purely training himself, and daily sparring with a genius like Barrett, he even wanted to stay here.
"Captain, you are getting stronger so fast. I thought I could catch up with you."
Barrett followed Lucar towards the warship, and couldn't help but praise him on the way.
He thought that his training was already as hard as hell, but he didn't expect that the captain was also the same. The amount of training was even greater than his own, and he didn't need any time to recover from exhaustion.
"Hahaha, if you want to catch up with me, you are still far away. Do you know that there are two monsters in our navy who are the same age as me?"
"What? There are two marines in the same age group who are as strong as you, captain?"
Barrett looked suspicious. He also learned that the captain's strength was already relatively top-notch. He couldn't believe what the captain said, thinking that he was motivating himself.
"Huh? It seems that you are only paying attention to the training. Didn't you read the content in the news that besides me, there are two marines, 'Akainu' and 'Kizaru'? Those two guys."
"Don't even think about it, how could I have defeated Jabba, the world's top powerhouse, by myself at that time."
Lukar gave an explanation. Considering that he had not seen these two guys for almost a year, it seemed that he could occasionally hear some news about Akainu, but Kizaru, a wretched guy, had not heard about it for a long time.
It seems that Kizaru was recruited by the World Government after graduation. Could it be that this guy left the navy?
He had some guesses about Kizaru's whereabouts. Although he had some conflicts with Akainu, he had the most contact with Nishizawa and these two guys during the year in the naval training camp.
"No way, Captain, I thought that the news was deliberately targeting you, and deliberately put two random navy lists on it."
"Captain, if I have a chance next time, can I challenge these two?"
Barrett couldn't help but get excited when he thought that there were really strong men of this level in the navy. He wondered if he would have a chance to challenge them.
