“Didn’t you notice anything strange about him?” The captain was annoyed by their stupidity.

They looked at each other. Really, they did not quite understand what the captain meant.

“Dumbass,” the captain suddenly cursed. He looked extremely uncomfortable, already on the verge of erupting, but he explained, “Ever since he was saved by us on the ship, he has not cultivated properly, nor has he done any proper training. Of course, he did not undergo any reasonable training. He’s either sleeping or eating.”

“However, if it was someone else, he would be a useless person. No, he would be worse than a useless person. He would not even be worthy of being a useless person. A useless person can still complete his training. Look at the difference between him and the new recruits on our ship. Which new recruit has the ability to do so?”

“Which guy who slacks and doesn’t exercise can still make it to his level? Who else can it be other than Occam? Tell me!”

Seeing the captain’s gradually losing his temper, the others shook in fear.

“Hearing what Captain said, I remember it too. It really seems like it. Occam hasn’t exercised much. He’s already so strong now. How strong will he become if he works hard?”

“In that case, even if he doesn’t cultivate, we can’t be his match. He’s a genius!”

“If that’s the case, then we might have misjudged. Occam’s ability has been shown just now. Even we can’t beat him, but where did his power come from?”

“I don’t know. Because people like them exist, they don’t need the effort of ordinary people to easily obtain abilities that normal people can’t. This is the kind of people who are called geniuses.”

The captain did not rage. Fortunately, these people were not too stupid.

Otherwise, he would really explode and curse angrily at these idiots.

Seeing that they were on the topic, the captain did not continue. Instead, he said, “Maybe there’s a God living in him!”

“The chosen ones are like this.”

Everyone was stunned after hearing that.

God lived in his body!

“Could it be that Haoshoku Haki has been awakened in his body? He hasn’t attacked all along, but now that he has a chance, he can use this power and defeat all the pirates?”

They could not help but think so. The captain clearly had made up his mind.

When this was said, everyone was shocked and their faces turned pale. Occam’s physical strength was indeed comparable with Haoshoku Haki?

They had almost forgotten about the General that the captain had mentioned. Instead, they were shocked by this sentence.

That was Haoshoku Haki, one in a hundred million people. However, anyone who can completely hit the Haoshoku would at least be a General.

In this sea, no one has awakened Haoshoku Haki except for another General.

A power of this level was fixed by fate and one could not cultivate to reach it, one could only rely on their own growth to become powerful.

Could it be that this was the reason for Occam’s personality?

A person who was found in the sea could have such power. What kind of luck was this?

This was the background of the upper echelons.

“However, based on Haoshoku Haki alone, it seems that it is not sufficient for him to become a General. After all, a General represents the highest combat power. Even if he wants to advance, he needs to do it step by step, right?”

This was also a rule that all of them knew. This was it. There was no way to violate it. There was a Haoshoku Haki in the Marines. If they began a battle in a new region, although few people possessed Haoshoku Haki, they had their own battlefield.

Everyone finally reacted and looked at the captain.

“With that in mind, I obviously have other information.”

The information in the captain’s hand was all Occam’s. He despised the young man and pulled out Occam’s information from the back.
