Chapter 243 How can we build a good navy with a bunch of insects like you?
Navy G-5 Base.
At the port.
”I don’t know how the government knew about this. I have clearly ordered everyone not to reveal the purpose of Weeble’s mother and son coming here to the government.”
The base commander, Lieutenant General, stood on the coast and gritted his teeth, “It must be some bastard in the base who leaked the secret to please the people above!”
”Now there are only two people left in the Seven Warlords of the Sea, and this organization that the government has spent a lot of effort to build is almost destroyed.”
”Even now it is not easy to find the right person on the sea, so after knowing this, the government will certainly not miss this guy Weeble!”
Edward Weeble.
This guy who claimed to be the son of Whitebeard, although not very famous, his strength is really not in vain.
”Stop making noise!”
The navy hero said in a low voice.
He turned his head and looked at his old friend who was sitting on the shore and looking at the sea.
Garp took a deep breath, took out a Den Den Mushi and dialed it. After a while, the other side answered.
“Garp? You bastard called just in time!”
Someone’s cold voice came from the other end of the phone, “Please tell Zephyr to stop messing around.”
”The Seven Warlords of the Sea are related to an important government plan. They must not disappear like this. Weevil can be a good example.”
”What nonsense are you talking about!!”
The Navy hero, who already had a hot temper, was instantly furious, “What about the young people who were killed by that bastard mother and son? Did they die in vain?”
”They are the future of the Navy!”
”They attacked first, Garp.”
The Five Elders said indifferently, “According to the intelligence we have, Weevil and his mother came here specifically to accept the invitation to become Seven Warlords of the Sea. If they were not attacked, why would they do it?”
”The Navy fighting pirates, isn’t this a matter of course?”
Garp almost gnashed his teeth. Since when did the Navy attacking pirates become something that needs to be reprimanded? “Anyway, this matter has been decided. If Zephyr still wants to take students, just select another batch for him, as many as he wants.”
The Five Elders said indifferently, “We will not hold you responsible for the failure of this mission for the time being.”
”But the base commander of the G-5 base actually dared to conceal it from us. Let him prepare for the military court.”
The vice admiral base commander on the side turned pale and clenched his fists.
The call ended.
”Damn it!!”
Hero Garp punched the pillar next to him heavily, and the solid concrete pillar was smashed to pieces by a punch.
Aokiji lowered his eyes and said nothing.
In O’Hara, the innocent people were abandoned, but now, are the insignificant navy people abandoned?
”Zeffer…”
Garp turned his head and looked at his old friend who had been expressionless and silent since just now.
He could clearly feel the dead silence in his old friend’s heart, but at this moment he didn’t know how to comfort him.
How could he let go of this matter? Zeffa, he has always been a man bound by emotions.
Just like when his family was killed by pirates, he gave up fighting on the front line and instead focused on training newcomers.
The blow he suffered this time was probably much greater than that time.
”Hahahaha!”
Zeffa suddenly laughed.
He took off the pair of gold-rimmed glasses that had been on his nose and stood up shakily.
”Teacher Zefa!”
The lieutenant general base commander wanted to support him, but Zefa waved his hand and pushed him away.
The man staggered away.
”Teacher Zefa…”
The base commander stared at his back in a daze.
Why is the back of the man he worshipped, admired, and Mr. Zephyr, whom he took as his goal, so desolate?
”…Mr. Garp?”
Aokiji’s voice was very low. He did not look up, but just looked at the ants on the ground quietly, “Do something, go do something quickly.What?”
If we don’t do something, everything will be irreversible.
”…”
The navy hero didn’t say anything, he just looked at the sea quietly.
”What else can we do now?”
Zeffa walked into the base building in a daze with erratic steps.
Walking towards them were Weevil and his son.
Weevil was still a little afraid of him, and subconsciously dodged to the side.
But Miss. Bakin, who was sitting on his shoulder, was very arrogant. The old woman looked at the distraught Zefa and couldn’t help laughing,
”A former admiral of the navy can’t go against the will of the world government after all!”
”Hahahaha! We are a team from now on, please take care of me! ”
Zeffar’s body stiffened, but he immediately continued to stagger forward as if he hadn’t heard anything.
For some reason, Miss. Bakin suddenly felt panic in her heart, and hurriedly patted her silly son’s head and urged, “Weeble! Let’s go quickly!”
Since he has received the government’s promise to become the new Shichibukai, there is no need to stay here any longer.
I always feel that this guy is going crazy.
Looking at Zephyr’s back, Miss. Bakin thought so.
Zeffar came to the ward in Gion.
Since he has returned to this base, Vice Admiral Momosato has of course been transferred from the ward on the ship to the luxurious ward in the base.
”Gion…”
After closing the door, Zephyr slid to the ground a little dejectedly, sat down with his back against the wall, and his head leaned against the wall. He looked at the window opposite with his eyes blank, and said, “You once asked me if the justice of the navy is real justice? ”
”Actually, I didn’t know how to answer at that time.”
Gion was really confused at that time.
She was caught by that bastard Ian and used as a hostage to trade with the government, and learned a lot of the government’s dark secrets.
She actually asked many seniors secretly.
But there was no result.
”But, Gion, this time I seem to have an answer.”
The Navy’s chief instructor gradually clenched his fists.
The right arm of Seastone, which was bent by Ian, creaked, and clenched.
”Justice is not in the Navy, let alone the World Government!”
”It is obviously an army that protects the people and a government that represents the will of the world, but it has to constantly compromise with pirates!”
He gritted his teeth, “How can we end this era of pirates with such insects? How can we defeat monsters like Ian? ”
”The world of pirates has ushered in a huge change, but the World Government and the Navy are still the same as they were eight hundred years ago!”
”The army of justice has completely decayed and has completely become a tool for the World Government to rule the world!”
Zeffer has never realized this as clearly as he does now.
Whether it is the Navy or the pirates, it actually makes no difference to the World Government.
As long as you can serve them and help them rule the world, then everyone is the same.
It doesn’t matter whether it is justice or evil, all the World Government wants is to maintain its rule over the world.
How can such a World Government defeat a guy like Ian?
”In that case!”
Zeffer took a deep breath, “Then let me change all this! “Even if he can’t completely change everything, at least he can still be a spark and bring some different flames to the world.
Maybe one day, these little sparks can also become a prairie fire.
Zeffa’s eyes were firm, and the decadence on his body had completely disappeared.
This painful experience prompted him to make up his mind.
It made his mentality, which was shaken by the defeat at the hands of Ian, become firm.
He finally found what he wanted to do again, and finally mustered up the courage and firmed up his faith.
”Zeffa… Teacher…”
A faint voice came from the bed.
Zeffa’s firm eyes were suddenly replaced by surprise, and he hurried over, “Gion? Are you awake?”
Lieutenant General Taotu, who was beaten to death by Ian and had a close call with death, slowly opened his eyes at this time, and his pale face had a little more blood color. His voice was very weak, “Am I still alive? “Of course he’s still alive!”
Zefar felt his nose sour, “Fortunately, you’re still alive!”
This disciple finally didn’t die! SheFinally survived.
Great, this is really great!
”Teacher Zefa…”
Gion turned his head with great effort and looked at Zefa, his voice was so soft that it was almost inaudible, “I, I heard what you just said.”
”I thought I was dreaming.”
Zefar paused slightly, then raised his hand to wipe his eyes, “It’s so embarrassing, did you hear my complaints? Just pretend you didn’t hear it, Gion, just pretend you were dreaming.”
”No,”
Gion shook his head gently with great effort, “Teacher Zefa, I, with you…”
Zefar widened his eyes, “Gion, what did you say?”
Vice Admiral Momosato just smiled softly, “Senior Kuzan asked me to watch more at that time, but now, I have watched for so long, I just think maybe it’s time to go outside the navy to take a look.”
In fact, she has always been paying attention to the World Government and the affairs of the Celestial Dragons.
How should I put it? Every time she noticed what the Celestial Dragons did, it was a huge blow to her sense of justice.
”… Is that so?”
Zeff nodded gently, “You should have a good rest first, I won’t disturb you.”
As he said that, he opened the door of the ward and walked out.
Outside the door, Aokiji stood against the wall.
Zeff pulled the door over and closed it, and the master and apprentice met each other’s eyes.
”…”
Aokiji said nothing.
Zeff was silent too.
After a long time.
“Let’s wait a little longer, at least until Gion recovers from his injury.”
Aokiji finally spoke, “You can also go to the science corps to replace your arm, and take me with you.”
He shook his bare left upper arm, “I’m also going to ask the doctor to install a prosthesis for me.”
”Kuzan…”
Zeffa pursed his lips, and then said seriously, “Otherwise, you and I…”
Aokiji shook his head, and he said calmly, “Teacher Zefa, I want to find someone.”
I want to ask him what he was thinking at the time.
Zeffa nodded gently.
He could feel that this proud disciple in front of him no longer had much confidence in the navy.
Or, since O’Hara that year, Kuzan had been disappointed with the navy. The passionate Kuzan of that year no longer existed, and was replaced by this lazy Aokiji.
But now, he is ready to change.
There is a silent undercurrent in the navy.
And Ian has quickly returned to Beehive Island.
Before they arrived at Beehive Island, the news that a man named Edward Weeble became the new Shichibukai had spread across the sea.
”Hahaha, this is interesting!”
Ian laughed while holding the newspaper, “It really makes people look forward to the subsequent development.”
Zeffer’s original life trajectory was to choose to betray the navy after Weeble became a Shichibukai.
Now, his arm was cut off, his apprentice was killed, and Weeble became the new Shichibukai.
All three conditions have been met, what choice will Mr. Zephyr make next? Ian is really curious.
It is worth mentioning that Vergo benefited from this incident.
His actions are completely different from those naval officers at the G-5 base who chose to keep secrets, and the World Government truly recognizes his loyalty.
Thus, Lieutenant Colonel Vergo suddenly became Brigadier General Vergo, saving at least three or four years of work.
Although this made his situation in G-5 a little tricky, everyone was reprimanded by their superiors, but you were promoted. The reason for this is clear to everyone except a fool.
But what’s the harm?
Loyalty is the basic requirement of the World Government for the Navy.
As long as the government still believes in his loyalty, Vergo will be valued.
Of course, the fact that Weeble became the new Shichibukai still caused some waves on the sea.
“This bastard actually became a Shichibukai!”
Whitebeard Pirates, Vista gnashed his teeth, “Shamelessly calling himself my father’s son! Sooner or later, he will be in trouble!”
”It doesn’t matter,”
Whitebeard didn’t care about it, “Kulalalala! You are my real family!”
He has never had anything with any woman, how could he have a biological son? Ghost Island.
”Mhahahaha!”
Uncle Quinn, who took some time out of his busy schedule to read the newspaper, laughed, “This kid actually became the new Shichibukai!? ”
”I really feel a sense of accomplishment!”
This kid is their creation! After returning to Beehive Island, Ian called Tezulo.
Showed him the vampire fruit.
Who knew that Tezulo waved his hands again and again, “Forget it, Lord Ian, this fruit is too precious, it would be a waste to give it to me.”
”Don’t be too self-deprecating, Tezulo,”
Ian said with a smile, “You have great potential.”
”It’s not that I’m self-deprecating, Lord Ian, it’s really that I’m too busy with affairs every day, and I can’t spare time to exercise, and I can’t fully exert the power of this devil fruit.”
Tezulo apologized, “Thank you for your kindness, but I’m really not suitable.”
”Is that so? ”
Ian did not force it.
Tezoro was so loyal, what else could he say?
Then let’s keep this fruit for now and see if Tezoro will change his mind later, or if there will be someone more suitable.
After returning to Beehive Island, I rested for more than a month.
One day after that.
An explosive news spread all over the world.
The chief instructor of the Navy Headquarters, former admiral, Black Arm Zephyr defected from the Navy! (End of this chapter)
