One Piece: Blue Scale Admiral

He stroked his chin, looking somewhat agitated.

"Could it be that we're going to go find Barrett, the Red Earl, right now?"

"No, no. I've only been here for a day, and there are still hundreds of people in this Infinite Hell. If I go to fight the strongest BOSS now, what will I do for the next 300 days? I can't fight Barrett every day, can I? Not to mention whether Uncle Magellan would agree, just sparring with one person won't help me hone my skills and abilities."

Rorschach shook his head in distress.

Seeing Luo Xia standing there lost in thought, completely ignoring Pizarro who was right next to him, Pizarro's eyes were filled with rage.

"Damn it! How dare you underestimate me? If I weren't bound by these damn Seastone chains, with my Island-Island Fruit ability, I could manipulate an entire island into a colossal island thousands of meters tall. I could sink a small island with a single punch. A Marine brat like you could be smashed into mincemeat with one punch!"

After thinking for a long time, Luo Xia finally had a flash of inspiration and came up with a good idea.

He turned around and looked at Pizarro, whose face was gloomy.

"Pizarro, if you don't want to keep getting beaten up, tell me about the techniques you used to develop your Devil Fruit abilities. Also, tell me about your strengths in physical combat and the techniques you use to generate power."

"Want my martial arts skills? Go eat shit..."

"Oh!"

Before Pizarro could finish speaking, he was suddenly launched into the air, flying sideways and crashing into the stone railing of the sea tower with a loud bang. His bones cracked and popped, and blood gushed from all over his body.

Rorschach slowly retracted his right leg, which had been kicking out, and looked very seriously at Pizarro, who had slid down from the fence.

"I advise you to think it over carefully. After all, this time is different from the last time. We have a whole year to spend together."

Chapter 573 Sending off Teacher Zefa

Time flies, and three months have passed in the blink of an eye.

Before we knew it, the New Year of the 1519th year of the Haiyuan Calendar was approaching.

In Marshal's office in Marineford, Sengoku looked at the large stack of documents on the table and unconsciously raised his hand to press his brow, trying to relieve the frustration in his heart.

Since Charlotte Linlin and Doflamingo, two of the Four Emperors of the New World, died one after another, the situation in the New World has become chaotic.

The fertile waters of Totto Land became a coveted prize for the remaining three Yonko crews.

Needless to say, Kaido's Beasts Pirates are the main force in the struggle for the territory of Whole Cake Island.

Driven by enormous profits, even the usually composed Whitebeard Pirates and Red-Haired Pirates couldn't resist getting involved.

In addition, there's G5, enraged by Rorschach's imprisonment, G1, which occasionally deploys large forces, and some pirates in the New World who want to claim the vacant Yonko (Four Emperors) positions.

The entire new world has been completely turned into a mess by these forces.

The Totto Land Sea is now a place of constant warfare, with countless pirates, marines, and innocent people dying every day, making it arguably the most chaotic place in the world.

Sengoku wanted to prevent the New World's navy from getting involved, but he was powerless to stop it.

The Navy's current strategic plan is to take advantage of the great victories in the G1 and Tottoland naval battles to rebuild all the original naval branches and build new naval bases on a large scale, thereby expanding the Navy's influence in the New World.

Therefore, the three Marine Admirals, Akainu, Aokiji, and Kizaru, have all gone to the New World to take charge.

Now, only he, a few old guys including Kapu, and the new recruits who have been recruited from all over the world and are undergoing training remain in Marineford.

As Zhan Guo was sorting through the chaotic thoughts in his mind, the office door in front of him was suddenly kicked open with a loud bang.

The sudden loud noise startled the Sengoku period, who was deep in thought.

He looked up angrily and saw Garp storming in. Before he could yell at him, Garp shouted first.

"Sengoku! What on earth are you doing, Fleet Admiral? Zephyr is going to be kicked out of Marineford!"

Sengoku was about to angrily rebuke Garp for kicking down the office door, but when he heard Garp's words, he was so shocked that he stood up from his chair, his eyes wide, and exclaimed, "What did you say? Who dares to kick him out?"

"Who else could it be? Besides those heartless bastards in the World Government, who would do such a thing?" Garp said angrily. "Zeff's position as the chief instructor of recruits has already been revoked, and that's not all. Now the World Government is even going so far as to strip him of his right to retire in Marineford. It's outrageous! You have to understand, Zeff sacrificed everything for the Navy! His family, his students, his entire life, he dedicated himself to them without reservation. And in the end, he's been kicked out of Marineford."

As he finished speaking, Garp's eyes involuntarily reddened.

"Have the World Government officials arrived? I'll go check."

Ignoring his anger, Zhan Guo hurriedly stepped out from behind the table and ran out of the fortress.

Behind the fortress, in the residential area for senior naval officers, Zephyr was at his doorstep in Marineford.

Several World Government officials dressed in black suits and several CP0 members wearing masks watched Zephyr slowly walk out of the courtyard, their faces stern and businesslike.

“Zeff, we are here on orders from the World Government. We demand that you leave Marineford immediately, and after you leave, you are prohibited from going to any other Marine branch…”

Zefa's gaze swept across the faces of the officials in front of him. Just as he was about to speak, a plume of white smoke shot from a distance and landed in front of him, blocking the officials and CP0.

"Hey! What did you just say? Say it again, I didn't hear you." Smoker had two cigars between his teeth, his right hand gripping his seastone weapon tightly, leaning forward as he looked at the indifferent World Government officials in front of him.

The official who had spoken glanced up at him and continued, "We are here on orders from the World Government to demand that Zephyr leave Marineford immediately..."

"What the hell did you say?!"

Smoker instantly flew into a rage, his eyes practically spitting fire, and he was about to raise the 10-hand grip in his hand.

A cold glint flashed in the eyes of the CP0 officer standing behind the official in the black suit. His figure vanished in an instant, reappearing in front of Smoker, and he pointed a finger at him.

The finger was shrouded in an aura of dominance, possessing astonishing penetrating power, and emitted a sharp, piercing sound.

Smoker unleashed his jitte strike, only to be struck by a CP0 finger gun, causing the seastone weapon to break in two.

CP0's finger gun continued its relentless attack, aimed at Smoker's chest.

Smoker neither dodged nor evaded. He tossed aside his shattered weapon with his right hand, which transformed into a white smoke fist covered in black armor. It shot out like a cannonball, aiming for the temple of the CP0 agent in front of him.

Judging from his actions, he was determined to fight to the death.

Unexpectedly, the CP0 officer standing in front of him ignored his white smoke fist and pointed his armed finger pistol with lightning speed.

Smoker's white smoke fist was cut off by another CP0 member's quick movement and a powerful kick.

"Whoosh whoosh!"

On the distant street, several figures approached rapidly using the Shave and Moonwalk techniques; they were all naval commanders residing in nearby houses.

At this moment, their faces, like Smoker's, were filled with anger.

They all rushed towards the CP0 members who were fighting Smoker.

"It seems you're going to defy the World Government's orders, Zephyr."

The official looked at Zefa coldly.

The four CP0 officers beside him leaped up almost simultaneously to meet the charging naval commanders.

In an instant, the dull thud of fists and feet colliding exploded like firecrackers outside Zefa's courtyard gate.

Zephyr glanced at Smoker, then at the naval officers fighting CP0, his weary eyes softening as he sighed inwardly, "Stop, Smoker."

Smoker didn't answer. Ignoring the injury he was inflicted by CP0, he gritted his teeth and launched a furious counterattack, forcing CP0 into a sorry state, their faces under their masks growing increasingly grim.

The clashes between the two sides were quite significant, and soon attracted more naval commanders.

Meanwhile, large numbers of armed marines were rapidly approaching from afar.

Suddenly, a dignified and deep voice rang out in the room.

"What are you doing?! Stop right now!"

Along with the angry voice, a rapidly expanding ball of black and red light swept over.

Thick bolts of black and red lightning instantly spread across the head of the gloomy-faced Sengoku, unleashing a terrifying aura of dominance.

Smoker's face paled, he groaned, and took two steps back.

The other naval officers also retreated.

The four CP0 members and several officials were stunned by the terrifying impact of Conqueror's Haki, their minds reeling and barely able to stand, filled with horror.

The marines who had been approaching from afar stopped in their tracks, looking with awe at the Sengoku figure who exuded a terrifying aura.

Sengoku walked into the arena and looked at the World Government official whose face was somewhat pale.

"What exactly is going on? What are you doing here? I don't think I've received any instructions from the Five Elders."

The man in the black suit, being stared down at by him, nervously swallowed, his voice hoarse as he said, "We are following orders from Saint Green..."

“Grind has no right to order a former admiral to leave the Navy Headquarters.”

Sengoku interrupted him, speaking in a cold voice.

A CP0 member stepped forward and looked at Sengoku. "Fleet Admiral Sengoku, the order from Saint Gringu has been approved by Saint Vochuli. Zephyr committed a serious offense in Dressrosa and must pay the price. The World Government's decision not to arrest and imprison him is already a sign of respect given to him in light of his past merits."

Warring States period's fists clenched involuntarily.

He glanced at Zefa, who had no expression on his face, and felt a pang of unease.

“Words are not enough; I need to ask the Five Elders.”

He pulled out a Den Den Mushi from his pocket and started dialing.

Garp ran over from a distance, his expression extremely grim.

"Zeffa! Ignore these bastards! Let's see who dares to let you leave Marineford..."

Zefa waved his hand, turned around and glanced at the somewhat dilapidated courtyard behind him, a fleeting look of nostalgia in his eyes.

Then he reached out his left hand, patted Smoker on the shoulder, nodded to the growing number of naval officers around him, said nothing, dragged his heavy mechanical arm, walked out of the courtyard, through the crowd, and headed towards the port.

"Zeff!" Garp cried out in alarm and quickly chased after Zephyr, trying to stop him.

"Teacher Zephyr!"

Watching Zephyr's tall figure leave, dragging his heavy mechanical arm, Smoker's eyes reddened, and he clenched his fists in anguish.

Smoker couldn't understand it.

Why is this happening?

Why was Rorschach arrested and imprisoned in Impel Down for killing a pirate?

Why should someone as respected as Professor Lian Zefa suffer such humiliation and be expelled from the Navy, which he dedicated his life to?

Is this really the justice I've been searching for?

Is such a world government really worth sacrificing their lives to maintain?

Smoker was confused.

"Zefa! Wait! Let me ask the Five Elders myself!" Sengoku shouted.
