Chapter 152: Losing one's dignity in old age

At this time.

In the sea not far from the [END POINT] island, several naval warships are sailing on the sea.

A solemn atmosphere shrouds the naval warships.

On the deck...

Except for a certain vice admiral who has been happily eating snacks since the start, the rest of the marines and naval generals...all stared at the direction of the warship with a solemn look!

After all, for them...

If they succeed, it would be fine; if they fail, then this time they may have to personally send Mr. Zefa off.

As the respected chief instructor of the naval school in the headquarters of the navy, Mr. Zefa, how can they not be solemn and sad in their hearts?

You must know that most of the navy here are taught by Mr. Zefa!

In particular, there are many navy...From the moment they entered the navy, it was Mr. Zefa who taught them step by step, teaching them skills, teaching them to catch pirates, and teaching them justice.

Even if their justice is different from that of Mr. Zefa and the justice of the Navy Headquarters, Mr. Zefa did not deny their justice, but recognized their own justice.

He believed that as long as they did not violate their own hearts and their bottom line, their justice was also justice!

He also said that there was no need to abide by his own justice of not killing, and he would also ridicule his justice with a self-deprecating look. Is that right?

If it was right, why would he become like this now?

It can be said that from the moment they entered the Navy, it was Mr. Zefa who led and guided them step by step.

However.

Today they are going to capture Mr. Zefa, and they may even... kill Mr. Zefa!

Even Borsalino, who was lazy and slacked off in the past, was silent at the moment looking at the sea in front of him, without the leisure of picking his nails as usual.

But.

Looking at Vice Admiral Garp who was still so leisurely, Borsalino couldn't help but twitch his lips, opened his mouth helplessly, and said, "Oh, as expected of Vice Admiral Garp, he is so steady!"

"Ahahaha, it's okay! Want some?"

"Sorry, I'm really not in the mood now." Looking at Vice Admiral Garp who didn't change at all because of his words, Borsalino sighed, sat aside, and said leisurely, "I've been so busy recently. Vegapunk suddenly disappeared, and I was really criticized by the World Government. It's rare to relax, and I was sent out to do this kind of thing again."

Rubbing his forehead.

"Please spare me! Where is Kuzan? Why don't you send Kuzan over!"

"That guy ran away a long time ago! He ran away without even asking for leave!"

"How cunning!" Borsalino shrugged helplessly again, and then looked at Garp who took out another bag of snacks, and raised his eyebrows, "Vice Admiral Garp is so leisurely, has he thought of a way to bring back Teacher Zefa?"

"No!"

"Is that so? Isn't Vice Admiral Garp worried that he needs you to send Teacher Zefa off?"

"There's nothing we can do about it~"

"Vice Admiral Garp is really calm!"

"Ahahaha, you will be like this when you are my age." Garp laughed again, "You'll get used to it, and maybe we can really persuade Zefa to come back?"

"That's really exciting!"

However.

Just as Borsalino faced Garp's answer, he shrugged helplessly, and was about to lie down leisurely like this senior and take a rest.

A marine ran over in a hurry, "Admiral Borsalino, Vice Admiral Garp, we found Admiral Kuzan running on the sea ahead!"

"???"

Kuzan?

Didn't they say this guy ran away?

Why did he appear here?

Borsalino and Garp were stunned, and were about to turn around and ask what was going on.

"Ah~, everyone is here?"

Sure enough, a familiar voice came from the side.

Kuzan had climbed onto the warship without knowing when, and after asking the marines to find a recliner and move it over, he also lay down directly.

Then, he stretched comfortably, "I'm so tired of running around, it seems I need to buy a new bicycle!"

"Ahahaha." Garp saw Kuzan and couldn't help laughing, "Why are you here?"

"Hey, I heard that you went to the East China Sea to be lazy!" Borsalino said sarcastically, "Why did you appear here all of a sudden? Did you also eat the Shining Fruit and run back at the speed of light?"

"I haven't reached the East China Sea yet, I'm nearby, and I rushed here after receiving the order!"

"You are worthy of being General Kuzan! You are serious and responsible, and you come here as soon as you receive the order!" Borsalino did not expose Kuzan's lies, but nodded, gave a sarcastic compliment, and then said slowly, "Since you are here, maybe the three of us can really persuade Teacher Zefa to come back?"

However.

"Oh, Mr. Zefa?" After hearing what Borsalino said, Kuzan rested his head on his feet and said leisurely, "No need to go over, the mission has been completed!"

As soon as he finished speaking.

"???"

The mission was completed?

How was it completed?

Suddenly.

Everyone was stunned, looking at Kuzan in confusion, even Garp stopped eating snacks.

"Finished? You finished? What about Zefa? Why didn't he come with you?" Borsalino frowned, looked around, and finally, his eyes focused on Kuzan, and said in a serious tone, "Did you... already send Zefa off? This speed is too fast!"

"No! Zefa quit, he said he was old and ready to retire!" Kuzan didn't care about Borsalino's meaningful words, ignored the silent marines and naval generals around him, took out the elusive guy from his arms and secretly took a picture of him. One of his letters said, "This is the resignation letter that Zefa asked me to give to Marshal Sengoku. Oh, and... he is going to retire in the East China Sea!"

"Ahahaha, that kid... ah, has that old guy really figured it out?" At this time, Garp also came back to his senses and ate snacks happily again, "This is not bad! It's good to retire. To be honest, I want to retire too!"

"Oh! I also want him to work for a few more years." Kuzan nodded seriously, "But Zefa just wants to retire, and I can't stop him!"

"..."

Are these two people serious?

Vice Admiral Garp believed it?

Borsalino twitched his mouth, looked at the two people who were talking and answering, and took the letter from Kuzan's hand.

[Resignation letter]!

It is indeed a resignation letter, but the words... It's obvious that it was not written by Zefa!

The corner of his mouth twitched, but when he saw the look of these two guys, he still said in a leisurely tone, "Ah? Is that true? Where is Mr. Zefa now?"

"Don't worry, he should be doing well!" Kuzan stretched again, "His students will take good care of him!"

However.

As soon as the voice fell.

"Admiral Borsalino, Admiral Kuzan, Vice Admiral Garp." The marine ran over again in a hurry, and said with a strange look on his face, "Two navy warships were found in front, and there was another warship that seemed to be from the Four Seas Branch! And, and on it..."

"And what? The warships of the Four Seas Branch? How could the warships of the Four Seas Branch be here?" Borsalino was stunned, but looking at the faces of Vice Admirals Garp and Kuzan, he guessed that these two guys were hiding something from him, "That is, you said you would take good care of Mr. Zefa's students? It's really curious! I have to take a good look."

He stood up directly, with a leisurely tone, and walked towards the side of the ship.

But.

When he finished speaking, he looked up.

He suddenly fell silent, and even blinked. After looking at it, he turned his head and looked at Kuzan, and asked in confusion, "Is this what you said you would take good care of?"

"Don't worry! Although that kid is a little corrupt, I believe he will take good care of Teacher Zefa. Borsalino, I know you have some doubts in your heart, but please don't question my words!"

"I'm not questioning you, it's just me..." Borsalino was silent for a while, "I suspect my eyesight may be a little bad, why don't you come and see for yourself?"

"I've been watching there." Kuzan yawned, but still stood up, walked to the side, looked ahead, "What else..."

However.

Before he finished speaking.

Kuzan:...

He also fell silent!

After blinking, he rubbed his eyes and looked towards the warship of the Four Seas Branch.

Especially when he saw Teacher Zefa hanging on it.

What's going on?

...

"Brat, put me down quickly! Either give me a ride or get out!"

"Teacher Zefa, bear with me for a while, I'll let you down when we get to the East China Sea!"

"Go to the East China Sea? Are you going to let the whole ocean laugh at me?" Zefa looked at Xia Che with a dark face, "You stinky boy, you are not deliberately embarrassing me because of what happened just now!"

"No way? How could I be such a petty person?" Hearing what Teacher Zefa said, Xia Che shook his head without hesitation, and said with a righteous face, "I'm doing this for your own good. If you don't lose face in front of the navy, how can the World Government and the Navy Headquarters let you resign easily!"

"I don't want to resign. Either kill me or don't stop me!"

"Calm down for a while, it's not time to go to extremes." Xia Che waved his hand and went straight to He walked behind, "I still have some things to do, so I won't bother you anymore!"

"You kid! Go if you dare? Hey, hey, you really dare to go? Don't go! You're leaving now, let me tell you, I will never agree with what happened between you and Ain." Zefa looked at Xia Che who really left with a dark face, and said to Ain behind him, "Ain! Ain, put me down!"

"I, I'm sorry! Teacher Zefa." Ain was silent for a while, and said to Teacher Zefa apologetically, "Xia Che promised me that he would put you down when we arrived in the East China Sea, and said that you were just impulsive for a moment, and you will regret it after you calm down. If you still insist on going to the East China Sea, Teacher Zefa, I will definitely respect the teacher and follow the teacher all the time!"

As he said, he bent down again and said solemnly, "Sorry, Teacher Zefa! I, I, I... I will keep an eye on Xia Che first, and I will never let him hurt Teacher Zefa."

"You...you girl, why did you run away?" Zefa looked at Ain who also ran away speechlessly, and yelled, "You didn't even listen to the teacher, listen to that brat, you girl Sooner or later, I will be bullied to death by that kid. Do you regret it? I regret not being beaten to death by that kid just now. Why don’t you let me go!”

However.

No matter how much Teacher Zefa yelled, Ain had already run away, and he was helpless to see that no one paid any attention to him.

The dark-faced Zefa could only sigh leisurely, then raised his head and looked ahead.

But when he saw several naval warships not far ahead, he couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.

Especially when he saw three familiar figures standing on the deck of the large naval warship, and another figure who was eating snacks and waving to him.

Suddenly.

Zefa's eyes couldn't help but turn red, and he raised his head slightly, as if tears were streaming down from the corners of his eyes, "You brat! I absolutely disagree with the matter between you and Ain!"

"You're quite energetic, don't worry, Teacher Zefa is fine!" Looking at Ain who was worried and hesitant to speak, Xia Che said a little, then looked at Violet and said , "How's it going over there with Mork?"

The words fell.

Hearing Xia Che's words, Violet looked at him with a strange expression and nodded, "Senior Robin just called and said that as per your request, Captain Mock has gone to sea!"

…

at the same time.

At the entrance to the Great Waterway, this side of the sea area of ​​the Whiskey Commercial Town.

A giant pirate ship.

The overlord of the East China Sea, Mok, was standing on the bow of the ship, with his hands clasped in his arms, a stern expression on his face, and his cold eyes looking forward.

This moment.

The momentum of the overlord of the East China Sea is clearly visible.

I saw.

He took a deep breath and shouted loudly, "I'm coming to the Grand Channel! I, Hegon Laangman D. Mock, am the man who wants to become the Pirate King!"

With this roar, it was as if the entire sea trembled. The rest of the surrounding pirate groups who had just entered the Great Channel couldn't help but tremble, and couldn't help but tremble, looking at the figure in disbelief.

The Legend of the East China Sea, the overlord of the East China Sea with a bounty of 1.3 billion Baileys...is he going to officially start conquering the great waterway?

And he also said he wanted to become the Pirate King?

And it’s not over yet…

The overlord of the East China Sea, who roared angrily and announced his ambition to the entire sea, patted his head again, seemed to remember something, and shouted loudly, "Oh, by the way, we still need to find Rafdru and explore the will of D. Study history! Yes, I want to do all of this!”

really.

The pirates near the waters of the Whiskey Commercial Town began to tremble again.

This guy...

How terrible!

Doing whatever the world government prohibits?

No wonder there are 1.3 billion Baileys!

Even the two figures on Mok's boat were so frightened by Mok's words that they trembled and hugged each other, looking at the figure wearing a mane and a golden cloak on the bow of the boat.

"Mochi, what should we do now? Aren't we here to find Captain Bucky?"

"You ask me, who am I asking?"

The two looked at each other and then raised their heads sadly.

This guy has a big secret!

[Captain Bucky, help! 】

only.

Just as the two of them were whispering.

Mock, who had completed his task, turned his head again and looked at his two new partners with a grin, "Aren't you going to say something?"

"We, we..." Mochi and Kabaji, who were stared at by Mok, immediately raised their hands pretending to be very happy and shouted loudly, "He is indeed our captain, the overlord of the East China Sea - Hegon Laang Man D. Mock!”

That happy expression seems to be like crying in mourning!
