In the naval headquarters, I looked at the phone bug that had returned to a sleeping state.
Akainu nodded solemnly.
"As expected of Saint Gao Wen, he always expresses his respect for us and other marines. When he comes to Mary Joa in person, I believe that even with Teacher Ezefa's bad temper, he won't say anything too serious... to refuse, right?
"
After finishing his words, Sakaski pursed his lips and looked in the direction of the training ground.
But after one glance, he frowned in confusion.
Mr. Zefa recently replaced the robot hand installed on Vegapunk. Logically speaking, after regaining his hand, he should return to the training ground and teach the young children just like he did in the past.
But now, half a month has passed since Teacher Zefa changed hands, but Teacher Zefa didn’t even go to the school grounds...
Thinking of this, Sakaski shook his head regretfully. Teacher Zefa, it seems that he can no longer bear the weight of time and fate.
While thinking about Teacher Zefa's past, Sakaski swore secretly in his heart.
You must definitely take care of your body, and you must not end up with a disease similar to Teacher Zefa's without practicing your own justice!
Asthma...asthma!
If he didn't have this damn asthma, how could Teacher Zefa have injured the nerves in his right hand by garbage pirates below the Four Emperors!
…
At the same time, Zefa, who was being talked about by Sakaski, was sitting in his bedroom with his head hanging, silent for a long time.
In front of him, Ain and Binz, the only two remaining sailors from the ability user pirate attack and the last two disciples of Zefa, looked at their teacher worriedly.
After hesitating for a moment, Ai Yin nervously held her heart in her hands and asked Zefa.
"Teacher Zefa, you... look uncomfortable.
Is there something wrong with the hand Vegapunk gave you?"
"snort!"
Hearing Ai Yin's words, Zefa suddenly raised his head. At this moment, his originally gentle and kind eyes had already turned into a fierce and numb look!
I saw him saying coldly to his two disciples.
"The problem has never been my hands, but the navy behind me, and even more so the world government behind the navy!
He tolerated traitors, allowed those with devil fruit abilities to confuse the sea, and even... even allowed the pirates with abilities who killed my disciples to bear the name of the Shichibukai!!!"
As he spoke, Zefa looked fiercely at the window next to the bed. When he saw clearly the clouds in the sky outside the window through the glass.
His right hand hurt severely!
"Ain, Binz...I'm sorry!"
Zefa said suddenly.
"I can't stand this kind of life anymore!
Five years, exactly five years, after that guy attacked me, in just two years, he hijacked Dressrosa's heavenly gold, and exchanged that damn thing for the name of the Shichibukai!!
!
Don Quixote Doflamingo!!!”
Muttering Doflamingo's name viciously, Zefa took a deep breath, and then he stood up suddenly.
"Stop talking about that, Ain, Binz, I must say sorry to you!
I can no longer bear to stay in the navy anymore!
Relying on the current navy, it is impossible to avenge me!
That guy has been a Shichibukai for a year and a half, and his roots are in the New World and even Mariejoia!
The navy, haha, the navy can't affect him!
In short, I want to leave the navy and form a guerrilla team for the time being to hunt those damn ability user pirates on the sea!
If I die on this road, then just let me die in shame, because the living me only feels ashamed and can't sleep!
But if I can gradually build a team, then I will form a new navy that will overturn everything today!
The navy should not become a piece of garbage that is stuck together with the Shichibukai. It must resolutely kill every pirate, especially the ability pirates!
Only then can we strengthen the Navy’s true stand of justice!!!”
Having said this, Zefa stretched out his hand and pushed aside the stunned disciples.
Then, he strode towards the door, took the huge mechanical right hand that he had just connected, and punched his door to pieces.
Looking at the broken door, Zefa felt his own strength.
"Vegapunk's skills are indeed good. Although these new hands are not even half as powerful as I once was, they are enough to deal with most pirates!
Especially since it is made of sea floor stone, this hand may be more suitable for dealing with ability users than me before!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zefa strode towards the dock. After making up his mind, he didn't want to stay any longer!
The naval headquarters next to him, which he was originally proud of, now only makes him feel sick!
The joys and sorrows among people are not the same. At this time, in the naval headquarters, whether it was soldiers or generals, they were all laughing and talking about Sakaski chasing the new generation of the fourth emperor, red-haired Shanks.
Bullshit.
But when Zefa heard those words, it only made him feel noisy!
By chance, Zefa saw his two disciples still following him and walked with him to the dock.
So Zefa finally couldn't help it and said to his disciples again.
"I really don't know what those idiots were thinking. Sakaski worked hard to hunt down the red-haired Shanks for two whole months, and even blocked him in the Chambord Islands!
Shanks himself is the new Pirate Emperor, and his relationship with the veteran Yonko is already quite tense!
In the Four Emperors of the New World, Kaido and Big Mom didn't react at all, only the old white beard walked around at the door of the new world!
Obviously we just need to create a general, or simply let that old guy Garp stop Whitebeard.
With the navy's lineup in Chambord and the navy headquarters, killing Shanks is a piece of cake!!!
The result, hum!
Not only did the World Government not support my proposal, it actually asked Sakaski to stop hunting the red-haired man and let him return to the new world!
In the past, when I still held the stupid justice of not killing, there were always people who advised me not to let the tiger go back to the mountain.
But now, I regret it, and in the end, they did something that they will surely regret!
Even so, those generals still had the nerve to talk about it with a smile. They actually thought it was some kind of damn honor!
Shouldn’t they understand better than me that only dead pirates are good pirates!!!”
After cursing at this point, Zefa waved his hand fiercely.
"And you two idiots, why are you still following me? Do you think I am still your pride?
I have long since lost the ability and qualifications to allow you to develop in the navy!
A general is not allowed to fail. Among all the generals in the sea, I am the only one who bears the shame of failure!
In addition to me, even Teacher Kong, who was the marshal, immediately resigned from the position of marshal after losing to the Red Earl!!!
And even though this was my first asthma attack, I didn’t know that I had asthma, so I didn’t bring any medicine, and I lost to that damn flamingo!
Even if I have so many reasons, people will not remember those reasons, they only know that I lost!
Failed general, huh, in the past four years, the recruits don’t even know my name!
Regardless of the World Government or the Navy Headquarters, they just want me to go to a quiet corner, to a place where I will not be mentioned!
Ain, Binz, even so, do you still want to follow me!!!
You must know that I am no longer qualified to educate the new generation of sailors, nor am I qualified to let you two fill the vacancies of rear admiral and vice admiral as I originally thought!
I have become a thorn in the eyes of the senior management and an unspeakable, shameful legend!
So, you two, hurry up and find Sakaski and ask him, my second disciple, to grant you the position of general on my behalf!!!"
After finishing his words, Zefa waved his hand with a sneer, and then walked all the way towards the dock.
He had stolen a navy supply ship a few days ago and parked it in a hidden location on the dock.
But when he started again, Ain and Binz behind him looked at each other and immediately followed him without hesitation!
Feeling the movements of his disciples, Zefa stopped in silence.
Turning around slowly, Zefa closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
"Have you thought about it yet?"
"Of course, Teacher Zefa!"
Ain's eyes were extremely firm, and she said to Zefa with great conviction.
"Five years ago, or to be precise, four years and nine months ago!
When you held on to your asthma-suffocating body and used your right hand to catch Doflamingo's line that should have killed both of us, your right hand was directly chopped off by Doflamingo.
Started by cutting off the nerves.
Binz and I have decided to use our lives to replace your lost right hand and stay with you forever!
So, Teacher Zefa, never say anything to us about leaving again!
It's like you have hatred in your heart!
Binz and I's hearts have already been filled with hatred. How could we do anything like this and obey the navy's orders?
If we receive an order to release the pirates, we are destined to go to prison for disobeying the order, so why not follow you right now..."
"Ahem!!!"
Hearing this, Zefa coughed heavily and looked at his disciple in surprise.
"Hey, you two, I feel your heart, and I'm quite touched too!
But what’s up with your attitude that this old man will definitely turn to crime!
From the day I became a sailor, I have been determined to carry out justice to the end!
Even if I leave the Navy, I will only seek my own justice!!!"
After the words fell, Zefa took a deep breath, and then nodded.
"Since you want to come, let's come together. Let's..."
prick!!!
Suddenly, an extremely dazzling, horizontal thunderbolt suddenly appeared in the clear, cloudless sky of Marineford!
The next moment, extremely violent thunder followed, bombarding the ears of every sailor.
Accompanied by manic thunder, the lightning struck hard near the dock after a short stay!
At the same time, in the navy headquarters, whether it was Akainu who rarely stayed in the office, or Kizaru who was also lazy in the office.
Or maybe it's the Warring States Period feeding sheep in the marshal's office.
Anyone who is strong enough will spread their knowledge quickly!
And just when the strong ones were on guard, the weak ones turned into happy people, chatting with each other about the weird bolt from the blue just now.
Near the Marineford Pier, Zefa stared at his eyes in disbelief and looked at Gawain who suddenly appeared!
At this moment, Gawain was only wearing a pair of trousers with a lot of damage and blood stains. At the same time, his upper body was naked and covered with bruises and bruises. He stood in front of Zefa excitedly and expectantly!
What surprised Zefa the most was that Gawain's hand lazily resting on the hilt of the sword was dripping with blood!
His thumb was almost cut off by an extremely sharp knife!
At this moment, Zefa couldn't believe his eyes.
Why did Gao Wen Shenghui appear in front of him in such a embarrassed state?
I just called Sakaski and offered to meet Gao Wensheng.
As a result, when I turned around, I didn't even reach the pier.
Gao Wensheng actually came to him with injuries all over his body?!
At this moment, Gawain, who was covered in injuries, seemed to have noticed his injured hand, so he pursed his lips, bent down and tore off a circle of fabric from his trousers, and bandaged his right hand hastily.
While bandaging, Gawain shook his head helplessly.
"I'm sorry, after I heard that you were always willing to see me, I was so excited that I immediately put down the training I was doing and hurried over in the direction of Marineford.
As for these injuries, haha, when they trained me, they didn't allow me to use my fruit abilities to dodge their attacks.
If I had no choice but to resist, wouldn't I end up like this..."
After the words fell, Gawain changed the bandaged injured hand into the form of lightning, and then changed back again.
However, his injuries did not disappear along with his elementalization process...
Seeing Gawain's wounds that were not immune to elemental transformation, Zefa swallowed hard.
Somehow, his eyes lighted up a little, and that was the look he would show only when he found a qualified student!
Zephyr was seen grabbing the wrist of Gawain's injured hand.
"No need to try, the knife wound that cannot be healed by elementalization must be the result of the person who trained you using the weapon-colored entanglement technique.
Only by penetrating the weapon color from the inside out and affecting the body of the natural fruit ability user can it cause such long-lasting injuries that cannot be recovered even if it is elementalized!
Judging from the marks on your knife edges, they are very different from the style of Rayleigh and that Yixiao!
It must have been Gion's doing, her strength has not increased much in the past six months!"
"indeed!"
Listening to Zefa's explanation, Gawain nodded happily. This teacher's eyesight was very good. He could tell it was Gion's hand just by looking at the wound!
So he raised his uninjured hand and gave Zefa a thumbs up.
"It's amazing, Teacher Zefa, you can tell who did it at a glance!
The swords in Gion have become heavier and heavier recently, maybe because the training environment on our ship is better. We have gravity fruit and meat ball fruit as supplements. These two fruits are very effective in improving strength."
"Don't!!!"
Hearing Gawain's words, Zefa directly raised his huge mechanical right hand.
"Don't call me teacher. I'm not a noble disciple like the Celestial Dragons. Even if you come to see me with an injury, I haven't decided to accept your invitation yet!"
"Ha ha!"
Seeing Zefa's fierce expression, there were actually two looks of admiration in his eyes.
Gawain smiled and shrugged at Zefa.
"Stop making trouble, Teacher Zefa, you should know that when I rushed here like this, you already had no room to refuse me."
"hehe!"
Hearing this, Zefa shook his head heavily.
"Not everyone is willing to endure hardships. Even if you maintain this kind of rigorous training every day that can make you bruised and bruised, I will only look at you with a high regard.
There is no room for rejecting you, haha, if I want to refuse, I will do so no matter what..."
"Uh, Teacher Zefa, do you want to hear me yell about the navy beating up the Celestial Dragons...?"
Gawain laughed and teased Zefa, and his words almost made Zefa's eyes pop out!
Seeing the generous Gawain in front of him, Zefa closed his mouth and swallowed hard.
Then, he spoke to Gawain seriously.
“Have a thick face and a dark heart, but be able to show off your attitude and let go of your dignity!
Gawain, you are worthy of being said to be a rare Celestial Dragon in a millennium during the Warring States Period!
