Time Travel: Age of Discovery

Therefore, Zhan Guo wanted to listen to Crane's opinion and his eyes fell on Crane.

"Well, Xiaohe, tell me, Taiya was once under your guidance."

He glanced at Garp helplessly, and then he also recommended Taya to Zhan Guodao.

"Even after a thousand considerations, Taiya is still the best candidate for this important task. He will never be an enemy of the navy. The justice he upholds is perhaps even more resolute than you, Zhan Guo, can ever fathom. He is the child I raised."

After hearing what He said, Zhan Guo lowered his head and frowned in thought.

Finally, Zhan Guo sighed and said that the matter was decided. He appointed Taiya to assist, but the specific matters would be discussed with him after Taiya returned.

Zephyr said he had something important to attend to and left. Garp took a bite of his donut and asked Zhan Guo with a smile, "Who do you have in mind?"

Zhan Guo glanced at Garp and said there was no need to ask more questions about this matter, but he promised that the man was absolutely trustworthy.

"Someone more trustworthy than Taiya?"

Garp finished his words with a smile and turned to leave. Crane said goodbye to Zhan Guo and left with him.

Zhan Guo was the only one left in the spacious conference room. He stood up and walked to the window, looking into the distance. His expression was solemn, yet contained a hint of worry and determination.

This trip was particularly important, and he had to do it. If successful, it would be like catching a big fish in the long run.

But he also knew that if he failed, it would not be just a small matter, but would also involve someone who was extremely important to him.

Zhan Guo sighed slightly and muttered to himself.

"Rosinandee..."

……

In the East China Sea, in the Kingdom of Goa, the Gelpo Mountains.

Taiya sat quietly under the shade of a tree, reading a book intently, completely unaware of Ace approaching.

A closer look revealed that Ace's steps were as light as the breeze as he crept closer to Taya.

However, holding the short weapon tightly in his hand, he stared fiercely at Taiya who was concentrating on reading in the distance.

When he was only ten steps away from Taya, Ace took action and stabbed Taya with the weapon in his hand.

This time we must succeed.

Seeing that Taya was indifferent, Ace felt a surge of joy in his heart.

But the next moment, something surprising happened to Ace.

The sharp blade had clearly pierced Taya's shoulder, but no blood was seen flowing out. Ace's hand felt as hard as stone, without even breaking the skin.

Even with his black armor and steel body, his clothes were not damaged, let alone Ace's power, what could he do to him?

Taiya turned around and yawned at Ace, rubbing his eyes and said, "This is the nth time this month, you are so patient."

Boom!

As expected, Ace was knocked down by Taya again with a punch and was squatting on the ground with his head in his hands.

Damn guy, his attack hurts as much as that of that stinky old man.

Taiya looked down at Ace, who was crouching on the ground, and said with a smile, "Good boy, you didn't cry this time."

For many months, Taya has been fighting wits and courage with the naughty boy almost every day. Although there is only one Ace, it is still quite a tough match.

However, Taiya has been an instructor at the Naval Academy for a long time and is more than capable of dealing with the young boy. Ace soon finds that he is no match for this old man.

In the past, Karp let him go crazy, and most of the time it was Dadan who took care of him. However, Dadan also found it difficult to control him, and he wandered around.

Since arriving here in Taya, Ace has been completely tamed.

At first, Taya ignored Ace's sneaking out, but he used some tricks to deal with Taya every few days. At this time, Taya finally couldn't help but take action and forced Ace to surrender.

But Taya also made it clear that as long as Ace could hurt him even by plucking a hair, he would no longer interfere and let Ace do whatever he wanted.

So, Ace started a counterattack plan, but unfortunately it never worked.

"One day, I will defeat you, damn navy!"

Ace squatted on the ground, rubbing his head and making an angry face at Taya.

"Haha, then I'm looking forward to that moment, but aren't you hurt by the blow just now?"

Ace scratched his head and responded, "It doesn't hurt as much as it did at first."

It seems that I have developed a certain resistance to pain.

Taiya couldn't help laughing, and suddenly heard the phone in his pocket ringing. He turned around and took out the bug detector.

"Is that you, Taiya? How are you doing?"

Zhan Guo's voice came from the other end of the phone. Taiya rolled his eyes and then complained to Zhan Guo.

"Thanks to you, I'm dealing with the kid right now."

"Kid?" Zhan Guo asked in confusion, wondering what unique skills Garp had taught Taiya. He coughed and got to the point: "Taya, I have an urgent mission for you. No conversation over the phone. Return to Marine Headquarters immediately. No delay."

Have an urgent task?

Taiya was quite curious for a moment. He wondered what was going on, but it was inconvenient to mention it over the phone and it had to be resolved in person.

Could something unexpected have happened again?

Taiya didn't ask any more questions, just said he was packing his bags and was about to go home, and then hung up the phone.

After returning to Dadan's residence, Taiya explained everything to everyone and began to pack up and prepare to leave.

Before leaving, Taiya tried to touch Ace's head, but was avoided.

"You left just in time. I hope you never have to come back!"

Ace glared at Taya, then turned his head away.

Taiya simply smiled and said, "As long as you are happy, that's all that matters. But I hope you can become stronger as soon as possible. I don't want you to be bored next time we meet."

"you……"

Taiya left with a smile.

Watching Taya's back gradually walking away, for some reason, Ace felt a sense of loss in his heart.

In fact, over the past month, Ace has lived a fulfilling life every day and has also witnessed the power of Taya.

Although he was hit by Taiya many times, he was willing to accept it. After all, the bet had been made. Apart from that, Taiya never hit him again.

Unlike that stinky old man, he would beat people when he was happy, and would beat them even more when he was unhappy. He is really a weird person.

However, Taiya still remembers what he said to him:

You are still young and will achieve extraordinary things in the future because you have a dream now and you are pursuing it with perseverance.

"Next time we meet, I will definitely look at you with new eyes."

Ace muttered to himself, turned and ran out the door, no longer caring about Dadan's calls behind him.
