Chapter 2: A New Warlord in the Grand Line
As Mihawk explained the reality of the situation, Ryan struggled to process the enormity of his new reality. He was now a part of the Seven Warlords, a group of fearsome pirates with power beyond measure.
Mihawk tested Ryan's new abilities, pushing him to wield the power of Conqueror's Haki, inherited directly from Gol D. Roger. To Ryan's surprise, the power surged through him without hesitation, an overwhelming force he had never known.
Mihawk's calm demeanor didn't change, but his respect for Ryan's potential grew. Ryan now had a choice: to embrace the responsibility of his new life, or to fade into obscurity.
"To truly command power," Mihawk said, "you must carve your own path through the Grand Line. Show the world who you are."
