Pirates: Awakening of the Divine Religion, I just want to teach and preach Chapter 033

Under everyone’s gaze, Wien’s figure appeared like a ghost behind Sakazuki.

His right foot, entwined with Busoshoku Haki, was already raised high, above his head.

“Damn it!”

A bone-chilling coldness shot up from Sakazuki’s spine into his brain. His bloodshot eyes trembled violently as he gritted his teeth, turned around, and threw a punch.

But Wien’s speed was even faster.

Before he could unleash his high-temperature magma fist, a hard, heavy black military boot had already slammed down like a battle-axe, with immense force.

The military boot irresistibly struck Sakazuki’s head, directly stomping his entire skull into the ground.

Boom—

The earth let out an unbearable wail and collapsed, and vast amounts of dust continuously churned upwards.

A giant pit, five meters in diameter, suddenly formed, shockingly appearing before everyone’s stunned eyes.

Tear—

A thick crack extended from where the military boot landed.

Sakazuki’s eyes glazed over from such a heavy blow, and foamy blood seeped from his tightly clenched teeth.

His blood-stained military cap was blown away by the strong wind, revealing his continuously bleeding buzz cut.

He gripped the ground with both hands, veins bulging on the back of his hands, trying to struggle to his feet again.

Unexpectedly, a hand with distinct knuckles suddenly reached out, directly grabbed his head, and with a single lift, threw him into mid-air.

Everything before Sakazuki’s eyes immediately spun upside down.

Under the force of gravity, he fell again in a spread-eagle shape.

The dizziness and stiffness from the heavy blow to his head enveloped him, making him unable to move.

“Remember this, all of you. Haki is the only way to fight against Devil Fruits in this vast ocean.”

Wien stood against the wind, hands in his pockets, his cloak fluttering wildly behind him, and took a step back.

Taking a deep breath, his gaze sharpened, instantly locking onto Sakazuki, who was falling from mid-air.

“Well, it’s time to end this.”

A stride, a stomp, a turn, a lowered waist, a spin.

A side kick, as heavy as a meteor, accurately struck Sakazuki’s abdomen.

Bang—

“Woah!”

Sakazuki spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, his body flying backward like a cannonball.

Finally, he slammed into a building wall in the distance, creating a hole, and then became deeply embedded within it.

After that, he fell unconscious.

Under everyone’s shocked and almost frozen gazes, the young Marine Lieutenant Commander landed steadily, turned his head, clapped his hands, and smiled.

“Finally, congratulations on coming to the training camp.”

………………………………………………

The entire training ground was eerily silent at this moment.

Everyone stared wide-eyed at the Marine Lieutenant Commander with a gentle smile in front of them, then stiffly turned their heads.

They glanced at their contemporary, Sakazuki, embedded in the wall of the distant building, and their eyelids twitched uncontrollably.

“So… so strong…”

“He’s simply too strong. Such a powerful Magu Magu no Mi user was effortlessly taken down like that…”

“Is this the instructor who will be teaching us next?”

Gradually, a hint of admiration radiated from their eyes as they looked at that young figure.

Gion couldn’t help but clench her fists, her eyes sparkling.

Listening to the shock and praise from the Marine cadets around her regarding Wien, for some reason, she felt happier than if she were being praised herself. A proud curve appeared at the corner of her lips.

It was like suddenly discovering that her favorite idol was gradually gaining popularity among many others, proving her unique and excellent taste.

“What terrifying strength, Lieutenant Commander Wien…”

Borsalino, standing at the back of the crowd, also praised with a smile.

But why did these words sound so much like an overture…?

Wien keenly heard it, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.

If I couldn’t see your approval rating, I almost would have believed your nonsense.

He gently exhaled a turbid breath, his gaze subtly sweeping over Borsalino.

[Name: Borsalino]

[Potential: SSS]

[Approval Rating: 5%]

[Evaluation: Possesses monstrous talent, capable of easily mastering both swordsmanship and Rokushiki.

His physique is extraordinarily strong, a future Marine Headquarters Admiral, with unfathomable potential. Strongly recommended as a disciple.]

Sure enough, this yellow-skinned monkey’s evaluation was the same as Sakazuki’s, both monster-level SSS.

However, this infuriating guy kept saying “how terrifying” things like that.

But his approval rating remained motionless, not even a 1% increase.

How annoying.

Although he had long understood this guy’s personality and attitude, Wien was still somewhat helpless.

One must know that, facing Sakazuki’s pressure just now.

In order to maximize the creation of a powerful image, he had almost used his full strength.

Although Sakazuki’s strength at this time could not be compared with the aggressive and fierce Marine Admiral in the original plot.

Not to mention the lack of various physical qualities, combat methods, experience, and mastery of Haki, even the development of his Magu Magu no Mi was very superficial.

But the Magu Magu no Mi was still the Magu Magu no Mi; the temperature of magma itself was the most terrifying weapon.

If the system hadn’t rewarded him with Busoshoku Haki not long ago, Wien estimated that it would have been difficult to end things well just now.

And this also indirectly proved the power of Haki.

However, Wien’s swift and decisive KO still failed to increase the approval rating of this yellow-skinned monkey, Borsalino.

Thinking of this, Wien subconsciously cast his gaze towards Gion.

The latter seemed to sense something, like a startled rabbit, quickly lowered her head and dodged among the crowd.

Wien secretly chuckled.

[Name: Gion]

[Potential: SS]

[Approval Rating: 55%]

[Evaluation: Possesses excellent talent almost like a monster, outstanding aptitude in swordsmanship training, with the potential to become a Great Swordsman, a future Marine Headquarters Admiral candidate, recommended as a disciple.]

Hmm, it was as he expected; Gion’s approval rating for him had also increased significantly.

It had already reached 55%, just a step away from the 60% basic standard for accepting disciples.

Compared to Sakazuki and Borsalino, these two troublesome thorns.

Wien knew very well that it would be impossible to meet the conditions for accepting them as disciples in a short period of time.

Compared to them, although Gion’s potential evaluation was slightly lower, she was still a future Admiral candidate.

Accepting her as his disciple would definitely not be a loss.

And it was clearly much easier to successfully accept her as a disciple.
