Zephyr knew all this and had no intention of competing with Garp and Sengoku. Despite Garn's repeated persuasion, he still wanted to prioritize the bigger picture and did not want to see any conflict or even division within the Navy.

But the Navy has already suffered this fate because of Garp's actions.

"Can our navy really win? Should this war really continue? Why should we sacrifice ourselves for a pirate's child? This is not the justice we seek!"

Then, a loud roar echoed across the battlefield.

Countless sailors were shocked. How dare a sailor utter such treasonous words?!

But when faced with war, they reconsidered and realized there was no problem. Why should their navy risk their lives for a pirate's child?!

Especially when that pirate's child said those things.

Why should the navy protect a child who says such things in front of the whole world?

"That kid is a pirate's offspring! He's born that way, there's no changing it! We gave him a chance, but he didn't want it, so who will give us, the Navy, a chance?!"

"Why should we, the Navy, as a righteous organization, protect a bastard child born from a father who was a heinous pirate who harmed innocent girls before his death?! What will the civilians think of us Navy?"

"..."

Loud roars echoed across the battlefield.

Many frustrated sailors found an outlet for their frustrations. They didn't know what to say, but what they said made them understand completely.

"That's right! Why should I?!"

Why are we fighting this war?!

More and more naval forces echoed this sentiment.

"We are all born commoners! We can't compare to the pirate sons who are taken care of by 'Marine Hero' Garp and can rise through the ranks!"

A sarcastic, mocking voice rang out.

"Admiral Candidate Green Bull is a beast!"

"That's right!"

"..."

Naval voices echoed from the battlefield.

Many naval personnel began to echo the call. With so many naval personnel speaking out, many who lacked the courage to resist the admiral candidates joined in.

Many naval personnel looked in the direction of Green Bull.

They didn't know if Admiral candidate Green Bull was dead, but Kaido's strength far exceeded the imagination of many marines.

Even if Green Bull hadn't died.

They definitely can't beat Kaido.

The majority of the navy are at the bottom, or rather, the bottom always make up the majority, and this large group of navy personnel are very unhappy with what Green Bull said.

"I'm done! Pirates are no match for us anymore! I'm going to join Lord Kahn and his crew! The Navy's high command are just a bunch of bastards who bully us lower-ranking Marines! They're not on our side at all!"

"..."

Several naval officers pointed their weapons at their former colleagues, not launching an immediate attack, giving their colleagues time to react.

Many naval personnel witnessed this scene.

Some sailors wavered and joined the rebellion.

"The navy is finished."

Sengoku said with a pained expression, "I shouldn't have let that child go. Why did I agree to that bastard Garp's whims? That bastard has been whimsical so many times, and this time he has finally dragged the entire Navy down with him."

"I am a sinner of the Navy!"

"..."

Whitebeard, who was fighting Sengoku, dared not relax in the slightest and went all out to deal with Sengoku. It was very difficult to determine a winner among strongmen of their level, and it was even more difficult to kill a strongman of the same level.

The Warring States period wasn't the kind of powerhouse who had just stepped into the top level; those inexperienced young people weren't easy opponents to deal with.

Previously, Kahn fought against Sengoku.

Sengoku used a frenzied act to try and lower Kahn's guard so he could launch a sneak attack. In fact, Whitebeard was actually fooled at the time. If Whitebeard were in that situation, he would never have taken advantage of someone in distress.

It is highly likely that they were successfully ambushed by the Warring States period, causing considerable damage.

“Kahn is much younger than me, but his combat experience and caution are much greater than mine.”

Whitebeard was going to give it his all and try to inflict a major blow on Sengoku. Even if he himself was seriously injured, he didn't need to worry, because he believed that others would come to his aid.

Whitebeard believed that his goal was to defeat Sengoku.

Securing our first victory!

He went and showed off to Shiki!

"Green Bull is not fit to be a general! He's not fit to talk about justice!"

"We join the navy so that our families can have a better life, but how many of us in the navy come from member states? Non-member states have no human rights and are not worthy of being called human beings! These are the words of a naval admiral!"

"..."

On the battlefield.

A large number of naval personnel felt disheartened; once morale was lost, it could not be regained.

Sengoku said inwardly with anguish, "That was a candidate for admiral, not a naval admiral. That naval admiral was sent by the World Government... it wasn't our navy's intention..."

But Sengoku didn't realize that what their naval high command was doing was no different from what Green Bull was saying.

It's just that Green Bull has torn off its fig leaf.

Their naval leadership, under the guise of justice, treats civilians from non-member states as if they were human beings.

More and more naval personnel are unwilling to continue fighting.

The pirate's child is already dead, so why do they keep fighting? To eliminate the pirate?

The era of pirates has gradually come to an end.

All of this has a great deal to do with Kahn... and the others. The navy wouldn't take all the credit for themselves. If it were really their navy's doing, they would have been able to deal with the pirates long ago.

Instead of dragging it out for hundreds of years.

"So that's how it is."

Zefa said with a complicated expression, "Alright, then let me take on this responsibility."

"Our navy is the justice of the people, and we have always upheld the justice of the people! Even in this era where pirates are gradually dying out and our role in the navy is fading, we have never forgotten that we protect the people, the justice behind them, and their families! We protect the lights of countless homes on the high seas!"

"If you don't want to continue fighting, come to me!"

"I, Zephyr, will become the last Fleet Admiral of this new era, leading you to uphold naval justice!"

"..."

At a critical moment of life and death, someone needs to step forward and become a true hero. Zephyr inexplicably thought of Kahn's words, and the honest man fell into thought.

But war and his adversaries didn't allow him to think for long.

He guessed that Kahn's actions were not simply aimed at the Navy. Having spent many years with Kahn, he knew that Kahn had only one opponent from beginning to end, and that was the World Government.

The era of pirates is gradually being phased out.

The navy should be phased out.

As a righteous organization that has protected the entire ocean for over 800 years, in its final moments of decline, someone needs to step forward, lead the navy, and make a final move to uphold justice, so that these bewildered sailors will understand that their justice has never been wrong, but rather the decisions of those in power are.

The problem lies in the root cause.

The World Government is in the wrong!

A large number of naval personnel gathered around Zephyr.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Barrett was unwilling to leave the battlefield and continued to fight Zeffa.

But Kahn stopped him with his Observation Haki.

Barrett was helpless.

Exit the battle.

The nature of this war has become one-sided.

We can't lose!

Zephyr's prestige in the Navy is no less than Garp's. Faced with this situation, Garp's prestige has plummeted, and many Navy personnel have defected to him. They originally did not want to choose to join Garn and others, but with Zephyr as an option, they are very willing to follow Zephyr and build a new Navy.

As the last naval officer, go forth and uphold your justice!

Borsalino, seeing which way the wind was blowing, defeated Enel who was at a disadvantage, transformed into his elemental form, and came to Zephyr's side, hoping to continue his life in the Navy for a while longer.

Chapter 368 Hero Zephyr! Garp, the Abandoned Pawn!

Naval Headquarters.

Marineford.

The fact that such an important and promising high-ranking naval officer as Borsalino chose his side, even though Borsalino is known for being opportunistic and shifting sides depending on the situation, provided a way out for many naval personnel, allowing them to make their choices with a clear conscience.

Standing beside Zephyr, becoming part of the new era's navy, and finding a way out.

Even those Marines who idolize Garp feel resentful after witnessing the decisiveness of Garp and Fleet Admiral Sengoku, and seeing the battlefield like this.

I am unwilling to die for a pirate, unwilling to fight to the end for a so-called innocent child, and to fight an unnecessary war.

Regardless of the reason, more and more navy personnel are standing by Zephyr's side.

The cries of the pirates on the battlefield grew fewer and fewer. Almost all of the pirates brought by Shiki were dead, and the remaining pirate remnants were no match for the Navy.

Even with a large number of naval personnel choosing to stand with law enforcement, the remaining naval force still completely suppressed the pirates.

In a battlefield where victory or defeat seems certain, the decision-making power does not lie with the lower-ranking pirates.

In the battle for top-level combat power, the winner and loser are obvious.

The Navy has no chance of winning.

Kahn, Lena, and the other members have already arranged everything.
