  Chatted with Bellemare all night long.

  The day, Smoker boarded Garp's ship and embarked on the road to the Navy headquarters.

  Then came the b voyage...

  But Smoker wasn't idle either;

  As a training madman at Base 161, he still trains non-stop every day.

  "4998, 4999, 5000!"

  "Phew...over!"

  Smoker fioday's boxing training. He took off his clothes and twisted them. Sweat dripped down his face. He tossed them a few times and put them on before turning around and preparing to return to the .

  At Base 161, Smoker is an out-and-out training fiend, but on Garp's ship he is not so eye-catg.

  Garp pete with the Roger Pirates, but not alone.

  Even though everyone on his ship was nameless except for Bojia, they were all the best among the best.

  In addition to their daily tasks, they also spend the rest of their time training every day.

  Therefore, although Smoker srofusely every day, he is not very spicuous on this ship.

  However, I 't stand the idle Garp.

  Garp ate senbei and wandered over like a streetwalker.

  "Hey, Smoggy kid, you are very eic. Do you want to find an oppoo spar?"

  Smoker looked back at Garp with a look of disbelief on his face.

  Discuss? ?

  With you? ?

  Are you kidding me? !

  Garp walked to the side and sat down, took out the package of senbei and started eating.

  "Kid, this is the first time the elite navy expanded css is recruiting students. Although Kuzan reended you, you only have the qualifications for the assessment, and you are still far from joining!"

  After that, he muttered again: "That rigid old man is not easy to fool..."

  Smoker nodded, his expression unged.

  "Thank you for telling me. I also think it would be childish to join just by reending it!"

  Garp grinned: "You kid, you are very fident..."

  "Would you like to find an oppo for you to practice with?!!"

  It turns out that Garp didn’t do it himself, which scared me to death!

  Smoker stretched his neck.

  "Okay, if you e to me, I won't refuse!"

  "Don't you o take a rest?"

  "The pirate won't wait for me to rest."

  "Well said!"

  There was a hint of appreciation in Garp's eyes.

  At this time, many navy came around to watch the excitement.

  Garp g him and poi someone: "Well said, Mantis, you practice with him!"

  "yes!"

  A huge man walked out of the crowd.

  Sm his epaulettes.

  Looking at the military rank, this one is a el like Kokor, but his aura is pletely different.

  Garp said with a smile: "Kid, take off that pendant, let me see your true ability!"

  Then he warned Mantis: "Remember not to damage the boat, I don't want to listen to Little he's nagging!"

  Mantis responded respectfully, "Okay", took off his coat and threw it aside, revealing his granite-like muscles.

  The surrounding naval forces gathered around, ag as if they were just watg the fun and not taking it too seriously.

  As expected of Garp's crew...

  Smoker took off the pendant and touched it with his fists.

  "Please advise, el Mantis!"

  Smoker was not sant as to look down upon a captain of the Navy.

  In the ics, the el seems to be nothing special, but in the world, he is already the highest-ranking officer.

  If you really want to t,

  The el is basically targeting 50 million pirates.

  The Brigadier will target pirates with a level of 100 million berries.

  As for majenerals, Drake was the best benchmark. At that time, the bounty was 222 million.

  As for the lieutenant general, the gap is too big and it is really difficult to judge.

  The weak Lieutenant General Maynard was killed by Bartolomeo, who had a bounty of 150 million berries.

  The strong ones are called didates fenerals, and the stro ones call generals brats...

  Mantis Smoker, touched his fists, rushed in front of Smoker, and punched his chest.

  "So fast!"

  Smoker was secretly shocked and raised his hand to block his fist.

  "The strength is also very strong..."

  The surrounding navy were also surprised.

  "Is this guy a private?! He actually blocked el Mantis' attack?!"

  "This kind of strength is still a private soldier?! Is the threshold for a warrant officer so high?!"

  ""Damn, luckily I romoted early..."

  Everyone was whispering, and only Garp looked at the hole made by Mantis on the deck with aremely solemn expression.

  Seeing that the attack was blocked, Mantis hooked his hands on Smoker's head and pressed it down, then raised his knees and hit him hard.

  Although Smoker blocked it, the force of this attack was too great and he was still hit and staggered.

  Mantis took the opportunity to punch Smoker away, making a big hole in the deck.

  All the navy: "Beautiful!"

  Garp: "Fuck!"

  Smoker stood up holding his chest and took a few deep breaths tain his breath.

  Over the years, he has devoted most of his energy to developing defense.

  This punch didn't cause any damage, but it felt extra painful because of the Dark Fruit.

  But the stro people on the ship frowned.

  Bogart walked up to Garp: "Lieutenant General Garp, Smog's breath..."

  "Ah, I feel it."

  Garp seems careless, but he is insightful and insightful.

  "His aura fluctuated violently, but it did not weaken at all."

  "This shows that the blow just now did not hurt him, but it caused him great pain..."

  Suddenly, Garp shouted at the two of them: "You two, stop pying with these nonsense and give me your abilities directly!!"

  Smoker and Mantis were both shocked and said in unison: "Yes!"

  Mantis suddenly activated his abilities, and then his figure skyrocketed, loacles sprouted from his head, and his eyes turned into huge pound eyes.

  Then the arms became thicker and longer, with jagged saw teeth growing out, like two huge scythes.

  At the same time, a carapace appeared on his body, and transparent wings sprouted from his back, and he flew into the air with a slight flutter.

  The surrounding navy soldiers shouted excitedly to e on.

  "It's appeared! el Mantis's ability is animal type, bug fruit, and mantis form!"

  "The power of is is far greater than that of ordinary animals, and the mantis is sed to none!"

  "That's right, not only is the speed and strength amazing, but it also has bde attack, carapace defense and flying capabilities. There are simply no blind spots!!"

  Garp chuckled.

  "Sm kid, after Mantis uses his abilities, his bat effectiveness is no weaker than that of a majeneral!"

  "If you 't bear it, don't hold on! If you get injured, I'll have a headache, hahahahaha!"

  Looking at Garp who sounded actually looked expet, Smoker was also speechless.

  Didn't you let me use my ability? !

  It's really not a big deal to watch the fun...

  Immediately, he stared at Mantis h in the air.

  "It's about to happen!"

  Mantis shouted loudly and rushed towards Smoker, twice as fast as before. The bde foot sshed at Smoker's neck with a sharp sound.

  "So fast! What a cruel attack!!"

  Smoker quickly ducked sideways.

  The bde foot passed by grazing the scalp, and the powerful force brought out a wind bde, instantly cutting off a se of the ship's sill.

  "This power is strohan Bellmere's wind bde!"

  Smoker also terattacked quickly. He found an opening and punched Mantis in the lower abdomen, knog him away.

  But Mantis turned several times in the air and stabilized his body with a flutter of his wings.

  Smoker ched his numb fists and said with a surprised look on his face: "Armor?!"

  "Is have carapace!"

  Mantis shouted, waving his arms and legs tinuously, and a light wind bde sowards him.

  Smoker was shocked: "Fuck?!"

  Probably because the transformation improved his physical fitness, he was able to use his Arashi Kick.

  Smoker hurriedly evaded, but still couldn't dodge them all. He could only block them with his body, leaving a series of scars.

  "Hiss...it hurts me to death."

  Smritted his teeth.

  He couldn't do it without Bckbeard r and rolling, but his face was also extremely ugly at this time.

  The severe pain caused him to be covered in cold sweat, and veins popped out on his forehead.

  The surrounding marine soldiers were afraid of being actally injured, so they had already scattered and fled.

  Garp's eyes bulged, atered to himself: "My deck..."

  Bogart stood silently behind him.

  At this time, a few wind bdes happeo affect the two of them.

  Bogart held the bde of the sword and moved the hilt casually a few times, then easily pushed aside the wind bde, as if pushing aside a few leaves.

  Garp waved his hand and shattered the wind bde like a mosquito.

  Uhe severe pain, Smoker no longer held bad rushed forward to fight Mantis.

  On both sides, you punched me and I knifed you, and the fight was extremely heated.

  But everyone see that with the three abilities of flight, carapad sharp bde, Mantis pletely suppressed Smoker.

  As time went by, Smoker suffered more and more wounds, leaving bloodstains on the deck.

  But Smoker still gritted his teeth, and his eyes became even more fiery.

  Garp took out a package of senbei from nowhere and said to Bogart while eating: "I see...I know!"

  "His pain is a side effect of the Devil Fruit!"

  Bogart narrowed his eyes: "He has never used his abilities... Why? Is it because his abilities are useless?"

  Garp took a bite of senbei and shook his head slightly.

  "What are the existing fruits with side effects? Whitebeard's Shog Fruit, Mageln's Poison Fruit..."

  "Except for them, even the fruits of those four...three little monsters have no side effects..."

  "A fruit with side effects is not simple no matter how you think about it!!"

  Bogart frowned: "Then why doesn't he use his ability?!"

  Garp snorted coldly.

  "Arrogant brat, he's using Mantis as a whetstone!"

  "This also shows that he is fident that as long as he uses his abilities, the battle will be over soon!"

  Suddenly, Mantis hovered in the air.

  At this time, he had many injuries on his body, and the i beetles on his cheeks and arms were also damaged.

  But pared to Smoker who was covered in blood, his dition was not a little better.

  "Smog-kun, you are very tenacious, but unfortunately you still 't beat me... give up!"

  Smoker endured a wave of severe pain and slowly straightened up.

  "Thank you for your kindness, el Mantis. Psychological warfare is of no use to me, and..."

  Smoker smiled fidently and stretched out his dark palm towards Mantis.

  "The battle is over!"
