Sailing: A Retired Veteran Awakens with Genryusai Template

Boom…!

Boom…!

Under the bright blue sky of the North Blue, a warship tasked with escorting the Heavenly Gold teetered on the brink of collapse, battered by the deafening roar of rolling waves.

And the man responsible for this chaos?

No one in the entire Pirate World could have guessed it at that moment.

It was a sixty-year-old man.

And all it took was a single punch.

With just one blow, he triggered an artificial tsunami, shaking a massive warship—standing over 50 meters tall—to its very core.

The Power of Bai Ye

"With my current strength," Bai Ye muttered, his eyes cold and focused as he watched the terrifying waves crashing against the warship, which now seemed ready to capsize at any moment, "even without using Ryūjin Jakka, I shouldn't lose to those so-called monsters of the sea."

The scene before him brought back memories of the Summit War, when Whitebeard famously stopped the Moby Dick with one hand. It had left Bai Ye awestruck before his time travel to this world.

Yet now, forty years after arriving in the Pirate World, Bai Ye stood in a position of unimaginable power.

He had become what he once admired.

However, this strength—this overwhelming power—had come far too late.

Far too late.

A World Watching

Suddenly, Bai Ye's sharp gaze caught movement above.

"What's this?"

An albatross with a camera circled in the sky, its lens aimed directly at the chaos below.

Bai Ye hesitated for a moment, then dismissed the bird and turned his attention back to the colossal warship.

He knew what this bird was—a messenger of the World Economic Newspaper. These albatrosses scoured the seas for stories, spreading news to every corner of the world.

Someone would see this. Someone would know.

From the beginning, Bai Ye had no intention of hiding his actions. Revenge against the World Government didn't need to be a secret.

If anything, the spread of this event was precisely what he wanted.

Marine.

World Government.

It was time for them to understand one simple truth: not everyone in this world feared the flag of the World Government.

The Aftermath

Bai Ye approached the battered warship, now close enough to see it in detail.

What had once been a proud, towering vessel over 50 meters high was now a ruined shadow of its former glory.

The warship's front end had been completely crushed and deformed, the keel snapped in half.

Seawater poured in through massive cracks, flooding the lower decks at an alarming rate.

There was no doubt about it—if immediate action wasn't taken, this warship would soon sink, resting forever at the bottom of the North Blue.

Bai Ye stared at the destruction, a cold understanding of his own strength settling in.

Even with only 60% of his system's template unlocked, Bai Ye stood among the strongest in the Pirate World.

This power, though still incomplete, was enough to challenge and even topple the World Government—a regime that had ruled unchallenged for over 800 years.

A Step Toward Revolution

Bai Ye's thoughts shifted to the atrocities committed by the World Government.

Looking up, he noticed the albatross circling above, snapping photographs of the scene below. Its movements were careful, as if it feared Bai Ye might lash out at it.

He gave the bird a brief glance, noting the faint trace of fear in its eyes.

Bai Ye ignored it.

The power of Devil Fruits was truly fascinating. The idea that a bird could fly across the world, gather intelligence, and distribute newspapers was extraordinary. Even its ability to wield a camera didn't surprise him.

"Let it take pictures," Bai Ye muttered under his breath. "This is only the first step in my revenge against the World Government. There's much more to come."

Boarding the Warship

With a single leap, Bai Ye soared over 50 meters into the air and landed effortlessly on the damaged warship's deck.

The vessel groaned beneath his feet, its structure barely holding together under the weight of its injuries.

This was the beginning of something far greater.

The Heavenly Gold warship—symbolic of the World Government's greed and control—was about to fall.
