**********
In the Six Powers, the [Shave] training method had been explained in his memories of the original story.
In a very short period of time, one must step on the ground dozens of times in a row, using this power to propel the body forward at incredible speed.
This statement sounded absurd, but in this world, it could be realized.
After physical fitness reached the proper standard, one also needed the mental will to accurately control the body's strength, allowing the legs to step on air.
At this moment, Kano, who had jumped into the air from the warship, easily avoided all the cannonballs and went straight toward the deck of the opponent's pirate ship.
"The Navy is coming."
"Bastard, he's actually flying over! Shoot."
"Kill this Marine. He's Executioner Kano, back from Loguetown."
"The executioner who executed Roger! If we kill him, we'll definitely become famous on the Grand Line."
"Bang bang bang..."
Countless bullets were fired, but Kano, who had already landed, seemed able to sense all ballistic trajectories and avoided every bullet with minimal movement.
"For guys like you, even if you reach the Grand Line, you'll just end up feeding the fish."
Before he finished speaking, Kano grabbed a pirate's head with one hand and threw him into the crowd with a flick.
What followed was like a wolf falling into a flock of sheep.
The difference in physical capabilities was clearly reflected at this moment.
His Observation Haki sensed the trajectory of all attacks around him, and every blow he landed made an enemy fall to the ground.
Soon, the deck of the pirate ship was cleared, and the captain, who was the only one left standing, collapsed to the ground, his legs weak.
He'd never imagined what kind of enemy he would encounter when going to sea.
He'd only thought that once he set sail, he could find the treasure left by Roger, the Pirate King.
A treasure that was rumored to be so vast that it could make a country wealthier than any other.
However, reality was always crueler than imagination.
He'd grown used to bullying men and dominating women in a poor town, which made him feel qualified to be a captain just because he had guns, a boat, and men.
Going to sea, burning, killing, looting, and committing all kinds of evil was his idea of freedom.
"Puff!"
Blood splattered, and the rookie pirate who just an hour ago had been dreaming about his free future was dead.
Half an hour later, all five pirate ships had been emptied of this group of trash with sin values under three digits.
Kano, covered in blood spatter, returned to the warship.
For a moment, everyone looked at him differently.
Walking through the air with [Moonwalk], exploding cannonballs with bare hands, possessing Haki, and having the record of annihilating five pirate ships by himself alone.
The Navy personnel who'd originally thought that Kano had only become famous after executing Roger now knew that this was another monster with possibly the strength of a future vice-admiral at the Headquarters.
If he even reached the level of an admiral...
The thought was pushed out of the Marines' minds because admirals were even more monstrous.
"Kano, you're so powerful."
"That was Haki just now, right?"
"You destroyed cannonballs without getting injured. You really are a monster..."
The warship's crew were colleagues of many years.
In addition, his military rank was still only private, so there was no distinction between superior and inferior.
Kano smiled and pulled a soldier over, approaching to whisper, "Have our people go up. All the loot follows the same old rules. Don't let others plunder it and confiscate it."
"Understood."
This soldier was also a veteran.
He laughed and hurried to find his so-called comrades.
After a while, a man with the rank of lieutenant came over and said, "You're still the same as before. We've almost arrived at Ridgemouth Town. With Colonel Lomi here, who would dare steal your trophies?"
Kano looked over. "I'm somewhat used to it. You know I have some hobbies of my own."
Remo joked, "You've become a regular visitor to the dance halls in Ridgemouth Town. Did you experience a different style this time when you went to Loguetown in the East Blue?"
"Snap."
Kano clapped his hands. "Don't mention it, it really is different. If you get a chance, you should give it a try. The East Blue and West Blue are two completely different experiences."
As he spoke, Kano stepped forward and put his arm around the other man's shoulders.
When he got closer, not caring about the smell of blood, he whispered, "The West Blue is all urban beauty style, and the clothing is all lace. It's different over there. They even have bellybands!"
Remo raised his elbow but failed to stop Kano's approach. He could only frown and say, "You went there and became even stronger. This time, you can even use [Moonwalk] and Haki… Kano, stop speaking nonsense…"
"What's wrong? You want me to tell you about the beautiful ladies in detail?"
"Get lost. I really don't know how you became so strong without even training hard. What enviable talent…"
After sighing, Remo asked, "The ability to dodge bullets just now couldn't be [Paper Art] from the Six Powers circulated by the Headquarters, right? Is it Observation Haki?"
Kano nodded helplessly. "Since you've discovered it, I can only tell you. Not only have I learned Armament Haki, but Observation Haki as well."
Now, Remo was truly upset.
As the lieutenant stationed at the special passage across the Red Line to the West Blue, although he still only held the rank of a branch officer, his knowledge wasn't comparable to that of ordinary Navy officers.
Therefore, he knew very well that compared to [Iron Body] and [Paper Art] from the Six Powers, Armament Haki and Observation Haki were powers that strong fighters on the Grand Line must master.
Without Armament Haki, one couldn't cause damage to Logia-type Devil Fruit users. Without Observation Haki, one couldn't sense the trajectory of attacks.
After exhaling, Remo nudged Kano with his elbow.
"Do you have any tips? How about you teach me?"
Kano didn't answer, but looked at him with a smile.
And Remo, who knew Kano's character well, obviously understood the meaning behind that smile.
"As long as it's within my power, I can give you three years of my salary."
With this decision, it was obvious that Remo had made up his mind.
But Kano still shook his head, and Remo suddenly became anxious.
Finally, this guy wasn't bragging about his talent for once.
It was obvious he really had a method. If he didn't share it this time, there might not be another chance.
"Five years! My five-year salary would be very big. If I master Haki, I'll definitely be promoted! That's more than enough."
Kano heard this and joked, "I've been saying that you have no one above you… How can you be so sure about your promotion and salary increase?"
Having said this, Kano looked around.
At this moment, most of the crew had already gone to plunder the pirate ships, while a small number were moving back the cannonballs they'd just taken out.
Those at the helm were steering the ship, and those handling the sails were pulling them taut.
"This time, I went to the East Blue, and what I gained was more than just mastering Haki. In Loguetown, I got to know a middleman on the Grand Line."
Kano winked as he spoke.
"You know, as long as a batch of supplies is shipped over, there's basically no need to worry about selling it."
