Time Travel: Age of Discovery

The girl seemed to have remembered something humorous, and she chuckled with her hands covering her mouth, looking a bit cute and naive.

"Then I'll look forward to it."

After a while, Teya left the resting place and walked into the competition area.

Watching Teya leave, the girl still smiled and whispered: "Your expectations are also my expectations."

With a cunning look in her eyes, she then turned to another passage and walked away.

Teja returned to the center of the ring, awaiting the next round. Halfway through, he reflected that while the move against Soders required a long buildup of energy, its power could indeed be determined by the duration of the concentrated domineering energy.

Teya tried secretly and was able to condense nearly twice the power of ordinary Ryuo within five breaths. This was because the domineering energy was more concentrated, like compressing the air into a cannonball, while Ryuo was like a strong wind blowing on your face. The difference was concentration and dispersion.

Haki has a wide range of uses and is particularly effective against those with Devil Fruit abilities. Even masters of physical skills often combine their moves with Haki when fighting, and the only thing that matters is strength.

Staring at the door that had not yet opened, Teya began to wonder who his opponent was.

Is he a devil fruit user?

If he is stronger than Sodes, he can no longer be careless and may need to use Ryuotai to deal with him. However, this is also an excellent opportunity to hone his domineering power.

The door marked with the three characters "Jiu Shi Chang" has not yet been opened, but in the dimness behind the door, Teya's opponent is already standing there, and there seems to be someone beside him.

"We must be cautious this time and not underestimate the enemy again."

"I understand. If I win, can you let me go out to sea for a trip?"

"Haha, it's not too late to bring it up after you win. However, can you change those weird habits of yours..."

"Humph!"

Amidst the conversation, the voices of a man and a woman were clearly discernible. After a brief exchange, the door slowly opened. The man patted his companion on the shoulder, said "Come on," and left.

The door gradually opened, and a straight ray of light illuminated the darkness and also shone on the man.

The warm sun and the cheers of the audience poured in. The challenger in the Jiushi Field stood in the shadows, looking at Teya from afar, then smiled and walked out the door.

Teya had been waiting for a long time. When he saw the door open, he said, "Finally, you showed up?"

Before he could see the other person's face clearly, Teya felt a sense of familiarity.

When the opponent walked out, Teya was slightly stunned. He had never expected that the opponent would be this person.

……

In the distant sea of Fuxi Island, a warship slowly approached.

Lieutenant General He was ordered by Kong to come here to investigate.

"Really? Such a grown-up person is still like a child. It makes people worry so much."

Standing at the bow of the boat, he smoothed his hair that was blown by the sea breeze, looked at the sea ahead, and couldn't help but sigh.

Although Tea has been promoted to lieutenant general, his style of doing things is somewhat similar to Garp. He has inherited the characteristics of the people he taught.

Zephyr's black wrist, Garp's unruly nature, and me... didn't seem to teach him anything.

He laughed at himself, feeling both love and hate for Teya.

Ran Teya has been in the navy for many years and has never done anything beyond the rules. Even if his actions are different from those of ordinary people, he always knows how to keep his distance. This is one of the reasons why He admires him.

He is sensible and does things in a way that makes people feel at ease, so He is not worried that Teya will betray the justice of the navy. He has control over himself.

However, when He recalled what was reported in the newspaper, he always felt that this matter was of great importance.

No matter who leaked the news of the treasure, the incident itself raises many doubts.

Why was it announced now? What is their purpose? These are questions worth pondering.

After Sora's speculation, He was almost certain that Teya had gone to Fuxi Island to investigate. Judging from his past behavior, it was almost certain. He knew Teya too well, and he could hardly restrain himself when he heard about the risky thing.

"Take care of yourself, Teya boy."

……

On the fighting field.

Teya looked at the green-haired girl in front of him, and he didn't expect that the seemingly harmless girl was actually a Nine-Style Field expert.

"My name is Adrien Betty, you can call me Betty."

Teya nodded and responded, "No need to introduce myself, but you did give me a surprise."

Betty covered her mouth and chuckled softly. "It must be a shock. I didn't expect the staff member explaining the rules to be the guardian of the ceremonial ground, right?"

"You could say that." Teya smiled faintly, twirling the hair at his temples with his fingertips, "But I'm more looking forward to your strength."

"Me too. I've been looking forward to it since the beginning."

The two had a brief conversation, and the host was already in the mood, stirring up the audience's emotions.

"How exciting! The first person to enter the Ninth Form in a year! Let's continue to look forward to the performance of 'Mysterious Black Face' Carlos!"

Uooohhhhhh——

The audience cheered loudly, the sound was like a huge wave, and they were obviously impressed by Teya's strength.

"Similarly, Carlos' opponent will be the cutest face of the arena in history, the secretary, Adrien Betty, known as the 'Smiling Elf'!"

Amidst the clamor, the woman's screams were particularly prominent, and it seemed that the majority of the fans were female.

Perhaps the women in Paradise all adored her, Teya speculated, but that wasn't the point at the moment. The name "Smiling Elf" didn't seem threatening at all, a perfect fit for her.

Teya never lets his guard down, and he sensed a trick as soon as he heard about this. He had seen things with great contrasts before, just like Meng Nan, who seemed strong but cried because of a bottle of wine.

"what are you thinking about?"

Teya looked at Betty who kept blinking, shook his head and said with a smile: "Smiling Elf, your title is quite interesting."

"Really? Actually, I don't like this very much. It's not very impressive. Actually, I..."

The host's voice suddenly sounded.

"Duel! Begin!"

Swah——

boom--

Teya gritted his teeth and blocked a white fist with his arm, remaining in a stalemate with his opponent.

Looking at Betty in front of him, Teya did not expect that she was so fast, and although she looked weak, she actually had amazing brute force.
