August 25, noon.

In the bathroom, Joe was covered with soap bubbles of white flowers, and his two fat palms rubbed his whole body vigorously, rubbing off a thick layer of dead skin, revealing the snow-white skin below that was as bright as the best sea pearls.

"Tifa will be jealous!" Jo opened the glass door of the shower room, glanced at the large mirror inlaid on the opposite wall, and bent his arms triumphantly: "No, with such white skin, the ladies of Port Tulun will vomit blood with jealousy!" ”

Inside the body, the sea of power is like a huge heart.

The contraction, expansion, and the sea of power beat exactly as often as Joe's heartbeat. The crimson flames burned in the sea of power, constantly scorching and refining the blood energy in the sea of power.

As long as there is still flesh energy in the sea of power, Joe's huge and powerful body, with 4.1 million pounds of 'primordial power', can constantly run, jump, and fight.

Below the sea of power, near the lower abdomen, the sea of energy was like a huge burning nebula, slowly rotating. At the core of the nebula was a fist-sized ball of fire that was darker and more bloody than the Sea of Power.

The power of the knights rotated continuously with this fire mass as the core.

Each knight's power has a crimson flame burning, calcining the impurities in it at all times, so that its volume is constantly shrinking, its density is increasing, and the power contained in the unit volume is constantly increasing.

Qiao took a deep breath, and more than a dozen knights' powers suddenly burned out, turning into a boiling stream of heat and pouring into his body.

With a slight roar, Qiao's bloated body suddenly shrank inward, and on the bulging plump body, pieces of knives and axes chopped together, like the muscles of the statue suddenly appeared.

Joe felt that his whole body was hot, and there was a terrible force that made his hands hot and swollen, and with a slight swing of his fist, his fists could erupt like a volcano, spewing out deadly energy.

Joe couldn't help but think back to the common sense about the cultivation of the Energy Sea that Hesse had instilled in him last night.

Because of the different levels of the breathing method, the cultivation of the energy sea has also reached the extreme state, and some people can only release the power of knights with their fists; If the breathing method is a little more advanced, both fists and feet can release the power of the knight, and the power of the knight can be released through the feet, which obviously has a great advantage in speed and agility.

And the higher-level breathing method, both fists, feet, arms, and legs, can release the power of the knight, the lethality is greater, the killing parts are more, and the attack method is more unpredictable.

And the top-level breathing method, every corner of the body, can even spew out deadly attacks from the mouth, and even some wonderful super-level breathing methods, which can make both eyes release powerful power. Moreover, the power of the knight can cover the whole body, forming a transcendent armor that is like a substance.

"However, the Imperial Army's Basic Breathing Law ...... You can't count on too much. Qiao shook his head at the mighty man full of muscles in the mirror: "It's really ugly, such a body...... Or ......"

The knight's power all over his body slowly unloaded, a large stream of heat spurted out of his pores, and Joe returned to his original round and plump white and tender image. The water on the body is quickly evaporated by the heat, and even the hair is clean and there is not a drop of water left.

Walking out of the bathroom and into the cloakroom, a morning was enough time for the tailor of the Vetal family to order several suited uniforms for Joe.

Seven feet and eight inches, this is Joe's latest measured height, a height that made Liya silent for a long time and almost fainted.

Not only did he grow taller and his waistline thicker, but more importantly, as his physical strength increased, Joe's seemingly obese body, whether it was bones, internal organs, or even the fat on his body, the density increased.

Joe at this time, he weighed ......

Looking at the special, weighted and oversized spring scale in the corner of the cloakroom, Joe subconsciously pouted: "Three hundred pounds forever, three hundred pounds that are light and agile, and light as a swallow...... Hohoo! ”

With his right hand, he pressed the scale more than ten feet away, and with a muffled sound, a scarlet knight's power roared out, beating the scale to pieces.

"Forever...... Three hundred pounds! Standard weight, no more! Joe triumphantly looked at himself in front of the dressing mirror, and grabbed from the shelf a baton covered with copper and lead, which had been lengthened again, and was already five feet long, almost the thickness of an ordinary person's calf.

"After the coming-of-age banquet, will there be a small gift? Ah, it's exciting...... Is it a weapon like Tifa's gavel? It's worth looking forward to! Joe was so excited that goosebumps broke out on his body.

He had long been envious of Tifa's little gavel, and he didn't know how much he drooled.

Now the batons in my hands are really more decorative than practical...... Joe also hopes that he can have such a powerful weapon that suits his heart, and is customized at a huge cost through special channels.

"Joe, haven't you washed it yet? Hurriedly...... It just so happened that you came back yesterday, and His Excellency Ross personally named you to participate in the send-off. Hesse's voice came from the living room outside: "I can understand her bad taste, you caused this to have you participate in the send-off ceremony as a victor, which will satisfy some of her dark thoughts." ”

"Hesse, don't say it so badly...... Being able to appear on such an occasion proves that Joe is also a big man with a certain status in Port Tulum. Leah's cheerful voice came: "Think about it, how many people want to show their heads at this ceremony, but don't have the opportunity?" ”

Surrounded by a large group of guards, the carriage left Mont Saint-Hilde and headed at full speed in the direction of the new pier No. 3 in the port of Tulum.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, the flag was already unfurled at the new pier No. 3, the soldiers of the brigade blocked the entire pier, the red carpet was spread on the longest trestle, and a military band of 100 people was auditioning on the side at the end of the red carpet.

tuba, trumpet, trombone, cornet, clarinet, oboe, flute, piccolo, and even bass and snare drums......

Several officials from the protocol office of the Port of Tulum went back and forth, scrupulously and discreetly inspecting the settings on the pier, and they would even approach the musicians of the military bands to check that the ribbons on their chests were neat and that the stars on their shoulders were polished......

Three flagpoles up to one hundred and fifty feet high were pestled on the pier, and at the top of the flagpoles, three flags of the Delen Empire fluttered in the wind.

The blood-colored flag, the iron-gray hydra shield coat of arms, and the nine huge snake heads opened their mouths, revealing a mouth full of fangs, and put on a fierce appearance that they couldn't wait to kill their prey.

The pattern of the flag of the Delenian Empire was too hideous and vicious, and for this reason, the Delenian Empire was criticized in mainland Medland.

But the higher-ups of the Delun Empire go their own way, and the more you say that the shape of the flag of the Deren Empire is too ferocious, the more they have trimmed the hydra on the flag into a fierce and invincible appearance through fine-tuning again and again.

So much so that Qiao, who jumped out of the four-wheeled carriage, glanced at the hydra on the national flag from a distance, and felt a slight chill all over his body, and felt uncomfortable for a while.

Under the flagpole in the center, on a large light chair, Duke Ross sat lazily, his left elbow propped up on the armrest, his palm supporting his chin, and his right hand gently rocking the small folding fan.

A large group of officers, dressed in grand dresses and swords at their waists, surrounded Duke Rus.

The leaders of Tulum Port, the leaders who can be named by Qiao, were basically present.

Even the Marquis of Seeac, who had just eaten a banana peel and dislocated his thigh last night, wore an extremely old aristocratic dress and mingled with the crowd in a serious manner.

Hesse walked with Joe to Duke Ross and saluted him solemnly.

Duke Rose glanced at Joe, smiled and pointed at him with a small folding fan, and without saying much, Hesse and Joe blended into the crowd.

The members of the Committee of Seven who had already arrived quickly moved out of their seats, and Hesse stood in front of the Zhongren in a steady manner, and the heads of the other six families of the Committee of Seven stood beside Hesse with a smile on their faces, and they were surrounded by dozens of other heads of large and small families.

Hesse and Joe instantly became the 'moon' of the stars, so many people centered on father and son, and a momentum that belonged to the Rittal family spontaneously appeared, so that countless people near and far on the new pier on No. 3 couldn't help but look sideways.

Joe mingled in the crowd, he was extremely tall, and everyone else around him, except for Hesse, had only the top of their heads near his armpits.

He looked out at the sea not far away, and all the capital ships of the Cassica Squadron and the Tulum Port Squadron were arrayed on the sea, the hulls of the two fleets were horizontal, the sails were raised, the gun doors on the sides of the ships were half-open and half-hidden, and they put on a posture of attacking with all their might at any time.

In the distance, flags were waving, and large groups of soldiers were moving on the old battery.

A little farther on, on the headland of the Golden Fleece and the Cape of the Silver Ox, two new batteries that were larger in size than the old ones and used more advanced and powerful guns, also had flags flying.

One old battery, three new batteries, plus two detachments......

Joe vaguely felt that this was not like a farewell to anyone, but more like a wary of some people who were coming.

Look at the officers around Duke Ross.

There are as many as 20 masters like Major General Dolong, and there are hundreds of other military masters wearing school officer uniforms.

Near Pier No. 3, nearly 10,000 soldiers were waiting for battle, Qiao's pupils glowed crimson, under the crimson vision, eighty percent of these soldiers were strong warriors who had completely opened up the sea of power, and the remaining two percent were all 'knights' who had opened up the sea of energy!

Qiao secretly said to himself, Duke Ross is draining the elite of several main battle divisions in the garrison of Casica, right?

There was a sudden commotion in the crowd, and several four-wheeled carriages with the insignia of the Kingdom of St. Sia came over, and after a while, His Excellency Yanan, whose face was still pale, walked slowly to the dock step by step, surrounded by a group of people.

Yanan came to Duke Ross and saluted her.

"What a pity, Your Excellency the Duke of Casica, that the port of Tulum is such a wonderful city, and I have to leave it. Looking back on the time I spent in the port of Tulum, it is destined to be a wonderful time in my life that I will never forget. ”

Duke Ross stood up and nodded to Yanan.

"I hope so...... I hope that His Excellency Yanan will return to the Kingdom of Santa Chia and continue to contribute to the friendship between the two countries. ”

"I am very pleased that this misunderstanding between the two countries can get a positive response from the Kingdom of Saint Chia."

"I firmly believe that the friendship between the Deren Empire and the Kingdom of Saint Sia will last forever."

Duke Ross was in front of countless people, saying nonsense that few people would believe.

In the distance, there was a sudden sharp sound of horns.
