For a moment, Rojen couldn't make a decision and decided to give up on the choice. After the boat circled halfway around Loguetown's isnd, it began heading in an unknown dire.

  About half an hour ter, Rojen's eyes narrowed and a look of seriousness and helplessness crossed his fabsp;

  There were Mariwo warships had appeared behind the boat, following closely and quickly closing in on him. Rojen couldn't help but feel a sense of panid tension.

  After all, he was just a sixteen-year-old boy. In his past life, he had been an ordinary uy student who had never seen war and rarely argued with others. Now, seeing this situation— watg those two enormous warships swiftly breaking through the waves— he felt his mind go bnk for a moment.

  "What should I do?" Rojen was a bit anxious, and beads of speared on his forehead.

  The wooden boat Ize had prepared for him was just an ordinary vessel, typically used by families to ship cargo. In terms of performa couldn't pare to the warships. If the enemy fired even one round, it would be the end of the fight.

  The warships were getting closer, and Rojen ched his teeth, muttering to himself, "My mental fortitude is still too weak!"

  "Exge for 'Urained Realm', Martial Arts Grand Master state of mind!"

  A soft sound of 'Kā Chā' rang in his ears, and Rojen's eyes fshed. The pani his gaze disappeared instantly, repced by the ess of someone who remains unshaken even when faced with great pressure.

  With his mood now steady, Rojen looked back at the warships, now less than three kilometers away and a faint smile appeared on his fabsp;

  "Why should I be nervous?"

  "At this moment, I still have thirty-five thousand belly in my pocket."

  With the Possessed System, he only o spend a little moo possess a powerful soul and gain a ce to survive this crisis.

  In the distance, owo warships, stood two imposing Marines odores at the front of each ship, both calm-faced.

  "odore Monarch, thank you for your cooperation on this mission."

  "odore Reiner, don't be so polite. I just hope that ohis mission is pleted, you leave my territory quickly," The young odore named Monarch said with a cold tone and golde.

  "Don't speak so harshly. The Pirate King's younger brother is no ordinary target. I've only used some gehods," odore Reiner said with a rexed smile.

  "If kidnapping civilians' family members and threatening others to get the information you want is what you sider gehen I think the Marine's justice will soon be ruined by people like you!" Monareered, then turned his attention to the small wooden boat ahead.

  Loguetown was ne, and finding friends or family members reted to the suspect wasn't difficult. For the Marines, who had enormous power, threats were one of their ethods of coer.

  Reiner, ing from the Headquarter, ecifically responsible for capturing Rojen and had used extreme methods. He kidnapped Jinx and Ize's families and obtained all the information he wanted.

  It was quid ve, wasn't it?

  But to Monarch, it was despicable, and he had no respect for Reiner's character.

  Five mier, the two warships, one on each side, had pletely surrounded Rojen's small wooden boat.

  "Kid, stop the boat. It's all over now," odore Reiner said, smiling on the surface, but his eyes were icy cold.

  Monarch remained silent, calmly the se.

  What he saw was beyond his expectations. He noticed that the so-called target, the young boy on the humble wooden boat, remained calm, even wearing a slight smile on his face. His mental fortitude was much higher than anyone he had previously dealt with, even more so than the pirates he had arrested.

  As the younger brother of the Pirate King, Rojen's value and fate, if caught by the Marines, would definitely not end well.

  The Marines had just dealt with Pirate King Roger and were at the peak of their power, so their crackdown on pirates was at its stro.

  At this moment, Rojen sat calmly on the broken chair on the wooden boat, his legs crossed. Fag hundreds of Marines and two odores aboard two massive ships, he remained pletely posed.

  "Impressive, so this is the Pirate King's younger brother," Monarch thought, admiring the young man. He had heard that Rojealent from a young age, that he didn't i his elder brother's strength, and that he couldn't eve some of the small-town thugs.

  But now, witnessing Rojen's imposing manner, it was clear he had the air of a true leader— like a first-gen Martial Arts Grandmaster.

  The wooden boat did not heed Reiner's words and tio sail forward.

  A cold light fshed in Reiner's eyes, and his tourned icier as he said, "Rojen, heed my words: stop the boat now, or the sed, I'll sink it!"

  "Hehe." Rojen finally spoke from the wooden boat across, ughing. "Marines, odore?"

  "Two odores?"

  "It seems that the Marines really value me. Two Marines odores who have enough strength to deal with a pirate with a bounty of 30 Million Belly, are personally ing after me, a defenseless kid."

  Reiopped wasting time, waving his hand directly: "Sink him!"

  At the same moment, Monarch's face suddenly ged, and he shouted loudly: "No!"

  He could sense something unusual from Rojen's calm expression.

  This guy was too calm, far beyond anything he had shown before.

  But the Marines aboard Reiner's ship didn't listen to Monarch's advice. With a loud boom, a bck onball was fired directly toward Rojen's wooden boat.

  "Whoosh!"

  The onball quickly traced an arc through the air and struck Rojen's wooden boat with a heavy impact. In an instant, an immense explosioed. What followed was a shog se that all those present witnessed.

  "Possession, e Grade Soul!"

  If one listened carefully, then they would be able to hear Rojen's voice just before the explosion.

  At the same time, an e light fred up within the system and a cold, white figure leaped out from a swirling e vortex, merging with Rojen.

  "e Grade Soul, Bai Feng. ption: 23,000 Belly!"

  This summon was a random summon. The possession soul was random, and the money cost was also random, carrying a great risk. But Rojen calmly proceeded with the possession.

  In the moment, he felt as though he had fused with Bai Feng in every way. The two of them became one. He obtained everything from Bai Feng, including skills and eveernal power in his Dantian.

  Even in his hands, Bai Feng's on appeared.

  This was the power of the system. At that moment, Rojen 'was' Bai Feng!
