Kerry didn't care at all about the words that Xia said when discussing Roger, which didn't seem like what a navy man should say. To him, who was a simple-minded person, nothing was more important than Ah Hua, Lily, and Xia. Everything else was just like fart.

At this moment, his mind was immersed in the joy of reuniting with his family. Xia and Lily also temporarily put their work aside and concentrated on chatting with Kerry about interesting things in the past.

The simple emotions of childhood have not been diluted by time. Instead, they have become more and more sincere and simple under the brewing of time. In the hearts of several people who are getting older, they have become pillars that support their hearts.

"It's a pity that Ah Hua didn't come to drink with us."

Kerry was drunk for a rare time. He lay on the table and banged the table with the bottom of his wine glass in frustration, making a "thump thump" sound.

Xia and Lily were both strong and hardly drunk. When they saw Kerry speaking his true feelings while drunk, they knew that he must have been holding these words in his heart for a long time.

No matter how Xia, Lily, and Ahua grow and change, in Kerry's eyes, they are still the children he picked up that year, the brothers and sisters he needs to care for, and his most cherished family members.

"Don't worry, Kerry."

Xia patted Kerry on the shoulder and solemnly assured him.

"We will be together again sooner or later. There will be a day, I promise."

Kerry was already drunk and unconscious. He didn't answer and kept mumbling to himself.

"Ahua...Ahua..."

Just fell asleep on the table.

Xia and Lily smiled bitterly at each other, and then they parted ways. Xia helped Kerry back to the dormitory area.

After settling Kerry down, Xia walked out of the room and looked at Marinford in the night, feeling mixed emotions.

They have been here for more than ten years, and Marinford has long become their second home. They have experienced too many stories and met too many people here.

This has become an inseparable part of his life.

I guess this is also the effect that the top naval officials envisioned.

Recalling everything about the navy, the world government, and the Celestial Dragons in the original work, and combining it with his own experiences during the time travel, Xia has slowly made up his mind.

The next morning, Xia got up early as usual. He had nothing to do suddenly, so he thought about it and came to the scrapped warship yard.

Xia plans to learn from Vice Admiral Garp and use the warship as a sandbag, without using Haki or the ability of the fruit, but only using physical strength to train his punching power!

At first, Xia thought this matter was extremely simple, it was just a matter of fighting.

Unexpectedly, something went wrong when Xia threw his first punch.

The fist seemed to encounter no obstruction and punched straight through the bottom of the warship!

He pulled out his fist, but the warship didn't move at all. It just had a fist-sized hole in front of Xia, standing alone as if mocking Xia's arrogance.

"?"

A big question mark appeared on Xia's head, and he turned to look at the warship sandbag next to him that was hit by Garp.

A large, complete dent was made right in front of the sandbag on Garp's warship, which was obviously completely different from the hole made by Xia.

Xia suddenly became interested.

It seems that this seemingly simple and violent boxing with warships has some hidden tricks that he cannot see.

Xia tried for a long time, using various strengths, but couldn't achieve the same effect as Karp.

If you use too much force, the base plate will be directly penetrated; if you use too little force, it will have no effect.

Xia gave up trying and sat there pondering over and over again. He looked at the dent made by Garp, recalled the scene of Garp practicing boxing before, and thought carefully about the tricks involved.

Having said that, the fact that Vice Admiral Garp is famous on the sea and is even dubbed the "Iron Fist" by everyone must not only rely on his strength, there must be some extraordinary qualities in it. Maybe Xia can understand Vice Admiral Garp's secret!

Xia has decided to make use of the month of rest at the headquarters to come to the scrap shipyard to practice boxing every day!

Once the holidays come, time becomes worthless, and the originally planned one-month rest passes by so quickly.

In the end, Xia did not achieve the same effect as Vice Admiral Garp in boxing training, but he also figured out his own way.

By chance, Xia Zai had a sudden idea and used his Observation Haki to look inward at himself, and used his special Observation Haki - meticulous observation to carefully analyze his various attempts to exert force.

Xia Ke is a master of life restoration. He can control every muscle tissue in the body at will. After continuous permutations and combinations, he finally figured out his own trick!

After continuous attempts, Xia finally found a special way of exerting force that could condense the force generated when punching and penetrate the inside of an object!

Unlike the advanced Armament Haki, both are not limited to the body surface, but can penetrate deep into the enemy's interior to cause destruction. Armament Haki is about flow and penetration, while Xia's move is about extreme concentration of strength.

After many experiments, the holes made on the bottom of the warship were extremely smooth, as if they had been polished!

However, the training time is still short, and this move has only achieved initial results and has not yet become combat-effective. Xia can only add it to his own training plan and plan to train step by step.

In the last few days, Xia specially invited a lot of people, including classmates from the training camp, good friends, and acquaintances.

A party was held in the pub that was usually frequented by everyone.

Lily also vaguely knew what Xia was thinking, and like Xia, she called her acquaintances.

"Sister Lily~! Long time no see!"

Gion came up and hugged Lily's waist tightly, and spoke to her in a coquettish manner.

At the age of 12, Gion has grown into a graceful and energetic girl, with a graceful temperament, which is very different from her childhood.

"Sister Lily, you have been out at sea for so long, you haven't been wronged, right? Look at you, you are all tanned~"

Gion looked at Lily and said with concern.

Lily has been at sea for three years. It is impossible for her to have never been exposed to the wind and sun. However, Lily is a natural ability user who has eaten the Thunder Fruit. The harsh natural environment has almost no effect on her as long as she is willing.

Lily said as she touched Gion's head.

"I have never suffered and I am living a good life, don't worry."

"Sister Lily, when I graduate, can I get on your ship?"

Gion looked at Lily with his big, confused eyes, full of tears.

Unfortunately, this trick that worked every time on the boys in the training camp had no effect on Lily.

Lily smiled and tapped Gion's forehead with her finger, scolding him with a smile.

"You, stop being so arrogant! You are so outstanding, and when you graduate, there will be a lot of generals vying for you."

"Oh, I just want to follow Sister Lily~"

Gion spun his head in Lily's arms and acted coquettishly.

Xia watched the scene with a smile.

That night, Xia and his friends gathered together until the early morning before slowly dispersing.

A day later, early in the morning of the third day, Xia, having made all preparations for departure, left Marinford.
