Transmigrated into One Piece world with a Gift Pack

"As you said yourself, you can only bring the full potential of your devil fruit by growing stronger. But you are pretty weak, right now. And, you know that well.

I plan on sending you to a location where young marines with good potentials are trained — Marine Special Training camp. ​​

Some of the strongest Admirals, Vice-Admirals, and Rear-admirals of Marine Headquarters came out of that training camp. I think it's a perfect place for you." Sengoku stated. "I have high hopes for you."

Blaize nodded his head. He knew Admiral Sengoku started to value his potential, and devil fruit power ability. It's what he needs right now, strong support.

Furthermore, Sengoku also needs strong Marine officers to maintain the peace of the world and stop rampaging pirates of the sea. Lately, the pressure on Marines is huge since various new, strong pirates arise to sail the sea every day.

Most of them are influenced by Roger's words and want to find the 'One Piece' while the remaining sail the seas for treasures and freedom. It's truly a Great age of pirates.

If Blaize wasn't wrong, Sengoku will soon ascend to the position of Fleet Admiral succeeding current Fleet Admiral Kong.

Right now, the Marine Admirals aren't Kuzan, Sakazuki, and Borsalino. They are just Vice Admirals now. If he's not mistaken, in another three years they too will be promoted to Admirals.

"You will be transferred to the training camp in a few days. So rest well for now."

On the third day, a Marine officer came and informed him. Blaize then went to meet Garp who led him to the Marine battleship.

What he didn't expect is, Garp also boarded the ship along with him. Clearly, he was bored staying in Headquarters and want to take some time off.

Blaize shook his head. According to Garp, the training camp is located in the Calm belt which can only be sailed with Marine battleship lined with seastones below them.

'The Island should be similar to Amazon lily and Rusukaina where Luffy trained.' Blaize thought.

It took the battleship one day to reach the large, verdant Island. From the distance, the Island looked small with various camps and buildings. Blaize also noticed a large number of marines training on the Island.

Once the battleship reached the Island, he came down along with Garp and other recruits who were on the ship. Balize wasn't the only one sent to the training camp from headquarters.

Just as they got off, Marine Instructor 'Black Arm Zephyr' came to welcome Garp. He wore an eyeglass and was clothed in a purple suit with a Marine coat draped over his shoulders like a cape.

"Zephyr, long time no see!"

"Garp you look as carefree as always."

"Instructor Zephyr." Blaize went forward and gave him a respectful salute he deserved. He admired this person for producing so many powerful characters for marines. One of the heroic and noble characters he has ever seen.

Unlike in the One-piece film: Z, the Zephyr of now looked rather vigorous with trimmed hair and a stern look. He hasn't lost his arm yet. The current him is truly strong.

Zephyr was taken back receiving a sudden salute from a person whom he hadn't met before. From Blaize, he sensed respect and admiration directed at him which further perplexed him.

Many people respect and admire him but it's the first time he sensed such an intense one. "He is?" Zephyr asked Garp.

"Bwahaha. He's the one Sengoku mentioned. How is he?" Garp laughed.

"He's weak." Zephyr openly said and it's the truth. If not for his devil fruit, many people can defeat him with ease as his physical power hasn't matured yet.

"Don't underestimate him, he has the potential to become Admiral in the future!" Garp reminded.

"Oh! Let's test it then." Zephyr said and ordered recruits to wait in the nearest building. Then, he led Blaize and Garp to a training field located in the distance.

Blaize's body steamed and his hands heated to blazing red. Applying his heat sense, he rushed forward and attacked Zephyr. He didn't hold back his abilities.

As he knows only by showing his talent, he will gain the latter's favorability. But Zephyr evaded the strikes with ease. It's within his expectation.

Blaize didn't stop his attack. His hands rained a barrage of Blazing Fist endlessly against Zephyr and suddenly, he blew a scorching heat beam from his mouth. Forcing Zephyr to use 'soru'.

As for Z, he was not that shocked since he heard about Blaize's devil fruit power from Sengoku. With a swift movement technique, he appeared before him and sent a kick.

His moves were casual and without any power, so Blaize was easily able to predict his attack with his heatwave and dodge it by bouncing back.

"You can stop now! Your weak physical strength limits your devil fruit abilities. And, your combat techniques are also very clumsy with no style. You have to train from the basics."

Blaize nodded his head in agreement as he knew his shortcoming well.

"What do you think of his devil fruit? any idea?" Garp asked.

"His devil fruit ability doesn't look anything different from heat-heat fruit mentioned in the devil fruit encyclopedia. We don't have to dwell on the fruit name, I think it's quite a helpful fruit in combat." Zephyr explained.
