Self-Discipline! Have You Seen Marineford at Four o’clock in the Morning?

"This era of great pirates, I will end it myself."

"...But not by way of getting Roger's treasure."

Roy's voice was as quiet as the starry sky above the dense forest, drooping and condensed.

After saying this, he didn't look back, and went straight ahead.

Kozuki Oden stared blankly at the thin and decisive back, his eyes swayed, and he suddenly smiled.

Roy, Roy, you said don't let me compare you with Roger, but in a way, you and Roger that bastard are really alike.

They are all the same stubbornness and self-confidence, once they identify something, they will strive to get it, even if they break the south wall, they will not look back.

"where you go!?"

Kozuki Oden hurriedly finished a few sips of the wine in the jug in front of him, and hurriedly got up and shouted to the back of the teenager who was going away.

"Go to train."

Roy's faint voice came from afar.

"I am coming too!!"

Oden's eyes lit up, and he picked up the two long knives hanging on the wall to quickly follow.

….….

….….

The night sky is lonely, and the moon and stars are scarce.

On an empty ground deep in the jungle.

Kozuki Oden followed Roy's footsteps, scratching his head and asked curiously:

"I heard that when you used to be at Naval Headquarters Marineford, you would go to the school to train at four o'clock in the morning every day?"

"Is this rumor true?"

As he spoke, he raised his hand and lifted the placket of his clothes, shrinking his neck.

Wanokuni's climate is relatively mild, but because of the coastal surroundings, the air in this early morning is still cold.

The surrounding icy sea breeze passed through the shade of the tree, making the shade of the tree tremble frequently, making whirling sounds, as if the wind roared.

Roy walked slowly, Kaidō:

"Well, it's true."

Kozuki Oden opened his eyes wide, as if staring at Roy a little weirdly, as if seeing something weird.

"are not you sleepy?"

"By the way, you don't smoke. You just took a sip while drinking. People like you don't seem to have much meaning in life, right?"

Roy frowned. He did not expect that the world-renowned Kozuki Oden turned out to be a talkative...

"Get used to it."

"It's not really a big deal."

But as soon as the voice fell, his footsteps seemed to stagnate in mid-air for a moment, and then he continued to fall casually.

Yes, this self-discipline has become a habit.

But the guy who helped me develop this habit never came back.

Roy couldn't help but feel melancholy and irritable.

Kozuki Oden touched his hair bun, then shook his head and mumbled:

"I'm used to.... I don't really understand..."

"Furthermore, in the middle of the night, how can anyone train as crazy as you..."

But as soon as he finished speaking, he was stunned.

Not far away in the jungle clearing, a naked upper body, half body rotten figure, training with sweat and rain, caught his eye.

It's that guy!

The Marine Swordsman who was given to Qiu Shui by himself!

Is he here?

Roy stopped, smiled and turned to Kozuki Oden:

"Oden, not everyone is like you, with a remarkable life experience and rare talent in the world."

"Becoming stronger, maybe it's no longer normal for you, it's like drinking and eating as commonplace."

"But for many people, they have to work hard, or even desperately, to do it."

Roy shook his head and walked towards the ghost spider...

The ghost spider also stopped training a little at this time and looked at Roy and said:

"coming?"

"you are late."

Roy pointed to Kozuki Oden who was dumbfounded behind him.

"I was caught by this guy for a drink, drank two glasses, and delayed some time."

The ghost spider nodded, turned his indifferent gaze to Kozuki Oden, and said:

"Why did this guy follow?"

Roy shrugged and began to take off his upper body clothes, tied himself with seastone shackles, and said:

"I don't know, just let him, maybe he is curious why we don't sleep in the middle of the night to train hard."

The ghost spider remained silent, but did not speak anymore, once again raised the Qiushui in his hand, and began to swing the sword extremely boringly.

The actions of both of them are so meticulous, and there is no one else.

Because of the seastone shackles,

Their actions also seemed to be restrained and suppressed a lot.

But their expressions were all abnormally calm, and thick sweat gradually evaporated from their bodies, and a thick white mist gradually overflowed from their vigorous blood.

Kozuki Oden was stunned, just staring blankly at the scene before him.

Used to it,

It is a terrible word.

Roy is right,

He hasn't had the trouble of getting stronger.

He was destined to stand on the top of the mountain and overlook the world since he was born.

At birth, he was powerful enough to throw an adult wet nurse out of the room.

At the age of 4, a giant bear can be killed with a boulder.

Growing all the way, no one is its opponent at all.

So to be honest, he didn't quite understand what the so-called self-discipline and hard work really meant.

Don't things like strength naturally become stronger?
