Chapter 317 The strongest trump card is actually myself

This is the complexity of Black Arm Zephyr.

There is both a firm defense of justice and a weakness for compromise.

Especially when the opponent is Leon Lex, who has done him a favor of revenge.

Zephyr remembers vividly that when his wife and children were brutally murdered by pirates, instead of the World Government turning a blind eye, it was Rex who brought the enemy to him and cut the murderer into pieces in front of him.

At that time, Zefa knew that Lex's purpose in doing this was not pure.

But in the years that followed, Lex never asked him to do anything, which made Zefa feel resentful about it.

It was not until he realized the relationship between Gion and Lex that Zephyr put all the huge favor he owed Lex into Gion.

This is understandable.

Compared to the mysterious and powerful Leon Lex, who has unclear motives and an evil aura, Zephyr obviously favors the simple, kind and justice-loving Gion more.

So that year, the Navy Headquarters established the Navy Elite Training Camp. Zefa, against all odds, promoted Gion to be his deputy, serving as the adjutant of the Navy Elite Training Camp.

Over the years, among the new generation of the navy, Momosagi Gion's prestige is incredibly high, second only to the navy's master, Black Arm Zephyr.

If we rank them by seniority, whether it is Sakaski, Borsalino, Kuzan, or Kake, Huoshaoshan, Mole, Doberman, and Oniguru, they are all students of Gion.

Even some new generation navy officers who specialized in kendo simply learned from Gion and were guided by Gion step by step.

This is terrifying. Among the new generation of the navy, all the prominent figures were brought up by Momosato Gion from the elite training camp. It is conceivable that the value of Momosato Gion's admiral seat is more dazzling and more substantial than any previous admiral.

As for the fact that Momosato Gion was too young, only twenty-six years old, no one cared at all. What mattered on the sea was strength, and everyone could see Gion's strength. It was more than enough for her to be a general, and it might even be an injustice to her.

This is Zephyr's great support for Gion, and it is also a way for Zephyr to repay Lex's kindness.

Of course, in addition to this, Zephyr also supports Gion everywhere, plus the support of Vice Admiral Tsuru, and Monkey D. Dragon's defection to the navy, which has led to Gion's gradually rising prestige in the navy.

……

This is one of Lex's preparations for the coming war.

At least with the support of Gion and Zephyr, and the tacit approval of other high-ranking naval officials, the battlefield of Marinford will most likely become an Oscar war, where the competition will not be about military strength but acting skills. Both sides are actors. As for the injured, the only ones are Linlin and Kaido, and the pirates under their command.

Inside the main hall of Ante Island——

After listening to Lex's explanation, Golden Lion, Rhine and Gut also understood the layout that Lex had made.

Lex continued:

"In addition to Linlin and Kaido, I plan to let my second brother Roy land on Marinford together. With the help of my second brother's Illusion Fruit, I believe Linlin and Kaido will die more peacefully."

"Okay, okay, that's a good plan."

Rhine clapped his hands.

"As for the main force of the New World, that is, Uncle, Master, Old Man Whitebeard, Senior Wang Zhi, Old Man Silver Axe, Brother Xia Nuo, Uncle Rhine, Uncle Gut, Hirakawa Torashi, Barrett and others, all went to the Red Earth Continent to fight against the Army, CP, the Knights of God, the Five Elders, and the rest of the government's hidden combat power."

At first glance, Lex's side doesn't seem to have that many people.

The world government's numerical advantage seems to be even greater.

There are five of the Five Elders alone, plus the army commander-in-chief Fate, CP general Jing, the Knights of God also have two emperor-level generals, the army has two emperor-level generals, and the special stabilization force also has one emperor-level general, and this does not take into account the other strengths of Marijoa.

But one thing is more important, that is -

The combat power on Lex's side is of higher quality. Don't forget that above the emperor level, there is a transcendent existence called "king-level combat power".

On Lex's side alone, there are four king-level players: the Red Earl, the Golden Lion, the White Beard, and the newly promoted King Shano.

This is a more obvious advantage.

When faced with the mediocre general-level combat power of the World Government, such as the Red Earl, who is quick to fight and has extremely strong explosive power, and is comparable to the peak Rocks, it is questionable whether they can even take action.

After Lex's explanation, Golden Lion and others had a clearer understanding of the upcoming huge war.

Of course, there is one point that Lex didn't say, and it is also the point he hides the deepest.

That is, if the war breaks out—

Compared to Im, who was restricted in movement and bound to flowers for a long time (Roger told Rex about this after returning from Raftel), Rex, a god-level fighter, is freer and more mobile! ! ~

This is also the fundamental reason why Lex has been extremely confident from beginning to end and has been able to handle every situation with ease!

Because he himself is the strongest trump card! ~
