After Ali familiarized himself with the system, he exited his room and walked towards Moby Dick dining hall. When he arrived, he entered Moby Dick's dining hall, where the pirates immediately began to smile and greet him.
"Oh, little Ali is awake. Good morning, little Ali."
"Hey little Ali, there is a free seat next to me; you can sit here."
Ali smiled at all of them. He then walked to Vista and sat next to him.
When Ali sat next to Vista, Vista smiled at him, and he began to eat his breakfast.
Ali looked at Vista and asked, "Hey Vista, Can you teach me swordsmanship?"
Everyone in the dining hall got quiet when they heard this. Vista was also surprised when he heard what Ali just said, but suddenly a loud laughter was heard in the entrance of the dining hall.
"GURARARARARARA, so little Ali wants to be a swordsman." Everyone in the dining hall turned towards the entrance, where they saw Whitebeard and Marco walking in.
Ali smiled widely when he saw Whitebeard and Marco walking in and said to Whitebeard, "Yes, father, swordsmen are the coolest thing in the world. I want to be one myself."
When they heard this, all the pirates in the dining hall burst into laughter, and a tic mark appeared on Ali's forehead. He then yelled at them, "Stop laughing."
After Jozu calmed down, he looked at Ali and smiled at him. He then said to Ali, "Little Ali, if you want to be a man, you only need to fight with your fists; you don't need any flashy swords."
When Vista heard this, a tic mark appeared on his forehead. He stood up, unsheathed his two swords, and yelled at Jozu, "What did you say? You muscle brain."
Jozu also stood up from his chair and yelled at Vista, while cracking his knuckles, "You heard me, you third-rate swordsman."
Before Vista and Jozu could start clashing with each other, Whitebeard burst out laughing, "GURARARARARA, Vista You will be responsible for training little Ali in swordsmanship; you will start training him every day after breakfast and after lunch."
Jozu scowled when he heard this, and Vista smirked. He then said to Whitebeard, "Sure thing, father, leave this to me."
After that, they all continue to enjoy their breakfast.

After Breakfast
Vista stood in front of Ali, and he said to him, "Ali, every day after breakfast you will train your body, and after lunch I will train you in swordsmanship."
Ali nodded his head in understanding. Vista, noticing Ali's lack of complaint about his arrangement, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Do you know why I will start training your body first instead of swordsmanship?"
The Whitebeard pirates have gathered around, observing Vista and Ali with interest.
Ali nodded and answered Vista right away, "Because the most important thing for a fighter is their body. If I am faster and stronger than my opponents, I will have a clear advantage when I fight them."
Vista, along with everyone else present, widened their eyes in surprise upon hearing Ali's answer. Then, Whitebeard burst into laughter, exclaiming, "GURARARARARA, my son is a very intelligent kid." Good answer, my son."
All the pirates cheered and praised Ali loudly, and Ali blushed in embarrassment at being the center of attention.
Vista chuckled at the sight of Ali's embarrassment and yelled at his crewmates, "Shut up, you morons, stop making my student embarrassed."
When everyone heard what Vista had just said, they burst out in laughter. Vista then looked at Ali and said, "Ignore them, little Ali; now get down and give me 100 pushups."
Ali's eyebrows twitched in annoyance, and he got down and started doing pushups.
After he finished 100 pushups, Vista told him to do 100 setups, 100 squats, and 100 pullups.
After Ali finished doing all this, he felt sore all over his body. Vista smiled at him and said, "Good job, Ali. You can go and rest after lunch. I will start teaching you the basics of swordsmanship."
Ali smiled brightly at Vista and said to him, "Thanks a lot, Vista."
Virsta rubbed Ali's black hair affectionately in the next moment. Thatch walked to Ali and brought a plate with some grilled fish and salad. He then said to Ali, "Working hard is good, kid, but you need to eat nutritious food to get your energy back here. Dig in."
Ali smiled at Thatch when he heard this and said, "Thanks, Thatch, you are the best."
Vista got a tic mark when they heard this and said, "Oi, kid, I am training you; you are supposed to say this to me?"
All the pirates burst out laughing when they heard this from the corner of his eye. Ali observed Teach's intense gaze on him, yet Teach remained unaware of Ali's fleeting glance.
"I will not let you succeed in scheming on these good people. I need to hurry to grow stronger and master alchemy." Ali thought to himself.
Ali began to eat the food that Thatch had prepared for him before returning to take a shower. After the shower, he accessed his system's home panel.
"Well, I should start studying alchemy now." Ali summoned a book from the system's storage dimension.
Ali glanced at the title of the book, Introduction to Alchemy, and immediately began to read it.
After one hour of reading, Ali closed the book and widened his eyes. He then smiled widely and said to himself while chuckling, "To think I would have photographic memory, and I didn't realize I had this gift till now."
"This gift will greatly aid me in mastering Alchemy." After reflecting on this, he continued to read the book until it was time for lunch. He was able to finish reading the book and memorize every word of it.

After lunch
Vista gave Ali a wooden sword and then said to him, "I will start teaching you the basics of swordsmanship. Now stand next to me and watch me carefully."
Ali nodded his head and started observing Vista's every move.
Vista began demonstrating the fundamentals of swordsmanship to Ali, who carefully observed.
After Vista finished his demonstration, he smirked and said to Ali, "Your turn; give it a try. Don't worry about making mistakes. Just try your best. I will correct your mistakes if I see any."
Ali nodded to Vista, and thanks to his photographic memory, he memorized all the katas that Vista showed him.
Ali quickly began executing the katas he saw, and Vista's eyes widened in shock as Ali executed each kata flawlessly.
When Vista saw this, he smirked widely and felt a cold sweat drop from his cheek. He thought to himself, "This kid had incredible talent in swordsmanship; he only needed to see the katas once to be able to perform them perfectly." Things are going to be interesting."
