Chapter 1

In the early morning, a beam of golden sunlight rose from the horizon, and with a gentle breeze, the sea shimmered brilliantly and colorfully.

In a forest, two figures continuously darted through the woods, terrifying gusts of wind sweeping through, the sounds of collisions echoing constantly. The surrounding trees were snapped and collapsed in ruins.

With another collision, both figures trembled and then quickly separated.

So strong... Ace looked at the two figures in shock, his gaze finally settling on one of them.

Hearing Ace’s words, Luffy, standing nearby, couldn’t help but nod, his eyes also filled with shock, his gaze landing on the short-haired man.

Indeed, these two people were Ace and Luffy, and the two people fighting in the field were none other than the Marine hero Garp, their grandfather, and the other person, their older brother, Wang Ce.

With short black hair, his upper body bare, revealing a well-built physique and a handsome appearance, sweat continuously dripped from his body to the ground, but he exuded a terrifying fighting spirit.

Wang Ce shook his numb arm, his gaze fixed on Garp with a serious expression, feeling shocked in his heart. This old man’s strength is truly terrifying, like a monster.

Wang Ce, as a穿越者 (穿越者 means "穿越者" in Chinese, which can be translated as "穿越者" in English, but in this context, it means "transmigrator" or "穿越者"), never expected to transmigrate into the world of One Piece and be adopted by Garp, becoming the older brother of Luffy and Ace.

As a transmigrator, Wang Ce naturally had a golden finger, and three years ago, the divine summoning system had just awakened.

Garp was even more shocked, his eyes tightly fixed on Wang Ce, amazed at how his strength had grown so much in just half a year.

Mastering Observation Haki, Armament Haki, and possibly even Conqueror’s Haki.

Moreover, he didn’t know when, but his Observation Haki had almost reached an advanced state.

The combat ability Wang Ce displayed just now, such talent, at the same age, even the three monsters of the Marines didn’t have such strength.

Wang Ce, of course, didn’t know what Garp was thinking, because the Observation Haki and Armament Haki he mastered were obtained through the system.

"Hahaha, brat, I didn’t expect you to have such strength. Do you want to join the Marines with this old man..."

Garp’s body lightly trembled, then he laughed loudly, looking at Wang Ce, the terrifying aura around him gradually dissipating.

Although he was very curious about where Wang Ce learned Haki, Garp didn’t ask, because Wang Ce had always been mysterious since he was young.

Before Wang Ce could respond, Luffy, not far away, shouted: "No way, Wang Ce will be my crew member in the future."

Seeing Luffy straining his neck to shout, Ace, standing nearby, couldn’t help but twitch his lips. As the grandson of the Marine hero, to declare he wanted to be a pirate in front of him was simply courting death...

Sure enough, Garp’s figure suddenly disappeared, instantly appearing behind Luffy, his fist smashing down.

Smack, smack!!

A scream echoed throughout the forest. Looking at Luffy, who was smashed to the ground in the distance, Wang Ce shook his head helplessly.

However, Wang Ce had no interest in Garp’s suggestion to join the Marines. He had no habit of taking orders from others, whether in his previous life or now.

"Wang Ce, are you sure you want to set sail?" Ace slowly walked over, a smile on his face.

As the older brother, he was very clear about this, after all, these were some of the few family members he had in the world. He also knew that Wang Ce had been preparing to set sail for months.

"Yep, I’ll set sail tomorrow..." Wang Ce glanced at Garp, then smiled and nodded.

When he first transmigrated into this world, he was adopted by Garp as an infant. Wang Ce was three years older than Ace and six years older than Luffy.

Garp, of course, could hear their conversation from not far away, and his heart was very bitter. All three of his grandsons wanted to be pirates.

Thinking of Wang Ce’s talent, he felt sorry for Sengoku. With this boy’s talent and strength, he would soon become famous throughout the sea.

"Tomorrow, I’ll catch up to you soon. The one who will become the Pirate King will definitely be me..." Ace nodded, then looked up with a smile, his gaze becoming determined.

Becoming the Pirate King has always been his dream, even if the person in front of him was his most respected older brother, Ace wouldn’t back down.

"Give it your all..." Wang Ce’s body paused, meeting Ace’s determined gaze, a smile appearing on his face.

Whoosh, whoosh!!

"Brat, saying you want to become the Pirate King in front of this old man, aren’t you looking down on me..."

A blur flashed, and Garp appeared between the two, his fist directly smashing towards them.

In the next moment, before they could react, they were both sent flying. Wang Ce’s eyes narrowed, his fist covered in Armament Haki, and he also smashed it out.

Boom, boom!!

The two fists collided, Garp’s body didn’t move at all, but the ground cracked, and Wang Ce’s body trembled slightly, then he took several steps back.

Glancing at Ace in the distance, Garp’s gaze was serious. He sighed, then said in a deep voice: "Brat, at sea, if you die, no one might even give you a proper burial."

"If I’m afraid, I won’t be called Wang Ce..." Looking at Garp’s serious gaze, Wang Ce was taken aback, then he looked at Garp with determination.
