Pirate: This Marine has two Rinnegan.

Although Chiga used her Devil Fruit ability just now, it was based on her keen combat instincts.

However, Kizaru's physical skills are actually not bad, it's just that his Glint-Glint Fruit is too useful.

Kizaru, Aokiji, and Akainu are all top-tier Logia-type Devil Fruit users, but the Glint-Glint Fruit is clearly the most useful one, and it's also very cool!

Back in the battle, Chika, having created some distance, looked helplessly at Zephyr, who was in the middle of a heated exchange, and thought to herself,

Teacher Zefa, this is unethical of you to attack your student like this!

However, it would be nice to let Zephyr enjoy the fun of battle, so Chiga thought she would spend some quality time with her teacher today.

Having made his decision, Chiga's expression turned serious. His hands formed the ascended weaponry, and an extremely imposing aura erupted from him, clearly indicating he was prepared for a serious battle.

Sensing this momentum, Zephyr smiled slightly. He knew that Chiga was getting serious, so he had to show his true abilities as well.

The jet-black Armament Haki spread from Zeff's hands all the way to his elbows. At this moment, the Black Arm Zeff of yesteryear has returned once again.

Zephyr's eyes were fixed on Chiga, and he stomped his feet on the ground dozens of times, using the sixth technique, Shave.

The effect of this move when used on Zephyr's feet must be extremely strong; from completing the movement to teleporting in front of Chiga, it only takes a moment.

Zephyr's right arm muscles bulged high as he threw a punch at Chiga, who reciprocated with a punch of his own.

boom!

The ground beneath their feet cracked inch by inch, and powerful shockwaves swept outwards wave after wave, stirring up clouds of dust.

Without holding out for long, Zephyr swung his left arm again, repeating the cycle as he unleashed a barrage of punches at Chiga.

Chiga was also completely aroused by this attack. He didn't use any other abilities, but just threw punch after punch, exchanging blows with Zephyr.

The whole scene is dominated by a sense of "Ora Ora".

After exchanging blows for a while, Zephyr finally couldn't hold on any longer. He pushed off with his feet, ending the attack.

Chiga looked at his fists with a hint of lingering excitement. His fists were still steaming, a testament to how intense the fist clash had been.

Zefa retreated to a safe area and calmed his breathing.

A hint of pleasure crossed his face. Although that kind of attack method was quite physically demanding, it was undeniably exhilarating.

At the same time, he also gained a more intuitive understanding of Chiga's strength. He knew that Chiga had not used his full strength, and at least none of Chiga's powerful abilities were used.

Even so, in the physical combat just now, he was still clearly at a disadvantage, and he couldn't help but sigh that his student was truly a monster.

It's no wonder that Kaido and Shanks lost to him!

Chapter 147 Black Bull Zephyr

A gentle breeze blew by, causing the navy coats worn by Chiga and Zephyr to flutter loudly.

Zephyr's tense body suddenly relaxed. He looked at Chika opposite him and said with a smile.

"Chiga, your strength has far exceeded your teacher's expectations. To be honest, the position of Admiral is a bit of a waste for you."

Chiga hung his arms at his waist and responded with a smile.

"On the contrary, I think that Professor Zephyr is in a state where he can serve as a Marine Admiral again."

After saying that, the two of them laughed at the same time, as if they weren't the ones who had just been exchanging punches so wildly.

After laughing for a while, Zephyr shook his neck, grabbed his navy coat and threw it away, then began to slowly unbutton his shirt underneath.

Zefa said as he unbuttoned his shirt.

“I’ve had enough of that seat. I’ll leave it to you young people. Now I just want you to show your true strength, Chika.”

After unbuttoning the last button, Zephyr took off his shirt, revealing a well-defined physique that exuded power.

Seeing Zephyr's actions, Chiga also threw off his navy coat and unbuttoned his shirt just like Zephyr. He knew that Zephyr was about to use his full strength.

Once ready, Zefa let out a loud shout, and his muscles began to swell at a visible speed, with even the bulging blood vessels becoming visible.

Gradually, dense black fur grew on Zephyr's body, covering it completely, and a pair of gray horns grew on his head, with black patterns on the horns similar to those of a Devil Fruit.

A thick layer of bone armor had appeared on his shoulders, shimmering with a milky white luster in the sunlight.

This is the power of the Ox-King Fruit; Zephyr has now entered a half-beast state.

Two streams of white gas shot out from Zephaniah's nose, which had become almost like a bull's. He grinned at Chiga with a black face, revealing two rows of white teeth.

Zefa spoke in an extremely deep voice.

"Sorry to keep you waiting, Chiga. So this is the effect of your Ox-Demon King Fruit. How does it look?"

Chiga raised an eyebrow. To be honest, Zephyr's current posture definitely looked incredibly domineering, but his face was just a bit hard to describe.

Imagine what it would be like if a normal person's face suddenly turned black and grew a cow's nose; it would definitely not be good-looking.

However, out of consideration for her status as a student, Chika reluctantly gave Zephyr a thumbs-up and praised him.

"He looks really handsome!"

"Bullshit!"

"?"

A big question mark appeared above Chiga's head, wondering if there was something wrong with her evaluation.

Zephyr pursed his lips and said irritably,

"I've looked in the mirror before. What does this cow-face have to do with being handsome? You better be honest with your teacher!"

"..."

Chiga was inwardly furious. She should have just told the truth; she had really shot herself in the foot.

Feeling somewhat aggrieved, Chiga didn't waste any words and directly used the power of the Shura Fruit, expanding his size to be similar to that of Zephyr.

Zephyr nodded after seeing this and said,

"So this is the power of that Asura Fruit, isn't it? Looks pretty good. Come on! Let me see what kind of boost this fruit can give you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zefa stomped his large foot heavily on the ground, and a terrifying crack instantly spread towards Qianhe's location.

Of course, this kind of attack had no effect on Chiga, who could fly. He used the power of the Heavenly Path to fly directly into the air, and his four arms behind him turned into four cannons, firing round after round of lasers at Zephyr on the ground.

Faced with this dense laser attack, Zephyr frowned, because this move reminded him of a certain ape.

What he didn't know was that Kaido was thinking exactly the same thing as him when facing Chiga's laser.

Zefa pressed his arms to the ground, and a thick earthen wall suddenly appeared in front of him, covered with a spiral black pattern, just like the pattern on his bull horns.

boom!

The laser struck the earthen wall, raising a cloud of yellow dust. Zefa, standing behind the wall, looked serious; he sensed that the wall was about to collapse.

He was once again impressed by Chiga's skill, knowing that this was no ordinary earthen wall.

Controlling earth element is an effect that comes with the Mythical Zoan type Bull Demon King Fruit, and the earth element he controls is enhanced, with a hardness far exceeding that of steel.

Even with such defense, Chiga's attack still couldn't be stopped, which shows just how powerful Chiga had become.

The laser beams from the sky continued to bombard the earthen wall summoned by Zephyr. Finally, the wall could no longer hold on and crumbled into a pile of yellow earth that scattered everywhere.

At the moment the earthen wall collapsed, a fluid composed of loess spread from the ground along Zefa's arms and throughout his body, then hardened to form a layer of loess armor.

Zephyr pulled his arms off the ground and crossed them to protect his head, using his body to receive the subsequent laser attack. Dense lasers bombarded Zephyr and the ground beside him, raising a thick cloud of smoke.

After a long while, the smoke dissipated, revealing Zephyr inside, still maintaining a defensive posture.

You can see that Zefa's yellow earth armor has turned into pieces and slid off, and there are still dazzling spots of light left on his body.

Chiga landed on the ground from the air and looked at the light spots on Zephyr's body. His lips twitched involuntarily. Why did the scene in front of him seem so familiar?

Did I end up doing the job Kizaru was supposed to do? Honestly, I had no intention of killing Zephyr!

Chiga couldn't help but start to worry about Zefa's current physical condition, wondering if she should hurry up and give her teacher a treatment.

Fortunately, Zephyr didn't keep Chiga worried for long. He slowly lowered his arms and then suddenly bent over and lay on all fours.

His body began to swell again, and within moments he transformed into a gigantic black bull with a thick layer of bone armor attached to his back.

Clearly, Zephyr has fully entered the beast form of the Ox-King Fruit. He is aware of the gap in strength between himself and Chiga, so he doesn't want to continue like this. He is preparing to use his strongest attack to end the battle.

The patterned bull horns on Zephyr's head had now turned pure black, a result of him injecting all his Armament Haki into them.

At this moment, Black Arm Zephyr has completed its transformation into Black Bull Zephyr.

Several plumes of steaming hot air shot out from his nostrils again. Zefa locked onto Chiga with his huge bull eyes, stomped one hoof on the ground a few times, and then his whole body transformed into a black lightning bolt and rushed towards Chiga.

Chiga understood Zephyr's meaning. A destructive weapon shimmering with a purplish-black light appeared on his right hand, and he unleashed a powerful attack on Zephyr, who was coming towards him.

A deafening roar resounded throughout the entire Naval Headquarters.

The sudden loud noise startled Sengoku, who was enjoying a cup of hot tea in his office. His hand trembled, and the scalding tea spilled all over him.

Sengoku looked down at the large water stain on his pants, and after a while he came to his senses. He rushed out of the headquarters building and looked in the direction from which the sound came.

What came into the view of the Warring States period was only a huge mushroom cloud.

Chapter 148 Respect for Teachers and the Way Uchiha

Marineford, at the Navy Headquarters hospital

Zefa lay on the soft hospital bed with a rosy complexion, several thick white bandages wrapped around his forehead.

Standing by his bedside was Chika, who looked embarrassed, along with the others who had come to visit Zephyr. Kalifa and Ein stood on either side of Chika, while Sengoku and the others stood opposite him.

Even Akainu, Aokiji, and Kizaru came to this ward.

Normally, Kizaru would never get involved in visiting a sick person, but this time the person he was visiting was different—it was his most, most, most beloved teacher, Zephyr!

How could he be absent at a time like this?

Anyway, Zefa doesn't seem to be in any serious condition, so let's take this opportunity to give him a proper "consolation"!

Kizaru reached out and patted the blanket covering Zephyr, offering a look he believed to be one of deep sorrow as he offered his condolences.

"Oh dear, Professor Zephyr, are you alright? You really are something, fighting with Chiga at your age. That's too dangerous! You're a treasure of the Navy!"

These words, combined with Kizaru's rhythmic and expressive tone, were particularly striking.

Everyone present twitched at the corners of their mouths. Anyone who didn't know better would have thought that Kizaru was very concerned about Zephyr's health because of his behavior.
