Self-discipline! Have You Ever Seen Marin Vando at Four in the Morning?

　　It's gray outside the window,

　　The drizzle, mixed with the breeze, fell erratically, drenching the whole world into a dull hue.

　　This is the military hospital,

　　Disinfectant water and the smell of blood are immersed in this independent ward, and several hanging bottles of various colors hanging by the bed are dripping from the rubber tube.

　　"Wake up ¨'?"

　　A low and tired voice sounded slowly from the window of the room.

　　Roy didn't need to turn his head at all, he knew it was Zefa just by hearing the familiar voice.

　　"Old man."

　　The corners of his mouth squeezed out a stiff smile with incomparable difficulty.

　　"—Your uncle's Roy, you still know how to laugh!!" Zefa by the window suddenly roared out of breath, turned around and spit on Roy's face.

　　"I told you all!!"

　　"This war is not a stage for your group of military cadets to shine and dance!"

　　"You have never been on a battlefield!"

　　"Many of you have never even met a real pirate!"

　　"Why are you trying to run to the main battlefield to fight that bastard from the Golden Lion!?"

　　"what!?"

　　Roy was stunned, and suddenly he couldn't say a word.

　　It's not that he doesn't want to explain,

　　But because of the Zefa in front of me,

　　Muddy tears flowed out of those bloodshot tired eyes.

　　Looking at the old, wrinkled, vicissitudes and exhausted face in front of him, Roy didn't even have to think about it. It is estimated that the old man Zefa was standing here watching himself during the few days he was in a coma. 

　　Thinking of this, a warm current flowed in his heart that he had never felt before.

　　He could clearly feel,

　　This tough, stubborn, grumpy half-hundred-year-old man really cares about himself.

　　"Thank you, Teacher Zefa."

　　Roy slowly opened his mouth and smiled.

　　Zefa was stunned,

　　The tears on his cheeks were so clear in the dim light.

　　He suddenly shook his head, raised his hand to wipe the moisture from the corner of his eyes, and scolded with a smile:

　　"You bastard kid!!"

　　"I know I'm worried about the old man!!"

　　He slowed down and said softly to Roy, who was wearing a hanging bottle and was almost covered in bandages and wrapped into a dumpling:

　　"Aren't you afraid..."

　　"That's the golden lion."

　　Roy smiled,

　　Lying on his back, he stared blankly and calmly at the empty ceiling, and the focus in his eyes gradually became loose.

　　"I'm afraid... I'm really afraid."

　　"But I can't stop doing it just because I'm afraid, can I?"

　　"Teacher Zefa, I don't want to give up casually because of various so-called reasons and reasons."

　　In his mind, he recalled the scenes of the "wool" on earth in the past,

　　The smile on the corner of his mouth became more intense and wanton.

　　"I always thought that everything happens for a reason, and there must be a reason for what God has made you experience, lose, and gain."

　　"¨ˇ I always feel that everything is destined, and God just lets you experience what it means to survive if something bad happens to you."

　　"It would be boring if it was smooth sailing for the rest of your life."

　　"I'm afraid, it doesn't mean I have to back down."

　　"Since I'm here, I have to come for nothing."

　　"When no one is really ready, they have to wait? I won't accompany you!"

　　Roy said stinkingly.

　　Zefa stared blankly at Roy who was lying like a corpse, and suddenly laughed, but he let out a long sigh in his heart.

　　He turned slowly,

　　"Stinky boy, you have a good rest and take care of your body."

　　"This sea is waiting for you."

　　After speaking, he left the ward and closed the door.

　　He decided to go to the Marshal's Mansion again.

　　There seems to be a lot of good things on the old man's side.

　(Ok) Roy is also his own student.

　　He has everything that the three rascals of Sakarski should have!

　　If he doesn't give it, the old man will tear down his Marshal's Mansion with his own hands! !

　　Zefa gritted his teeth secretly, his fists clenched.

　　Thinking like this,

　　His footsteps became more and more certain, more and more brisk.

　　Facing the golden lion, Roy was afraid, and Zefa felt it.

　　But he still did it.

　　But that's not fair.

　　True bravery is not the mistaken belief that a man with a gun in his hand is brave.

　　But when you haven't started, you know that you will lose, but you still do it without hesitation, and stick to it no matter what happens.

　　Roy has proven his bravery.

　　And now,

　　Zefa is going to get a gun for him.

Chapter 122

　　Marine Headquarters Marine Vando,

　　Marshal's House.

　　The drizzle outside the window was hazy, and everything was mournful and silent, as if to pay homage to the countless soldiers who died in this war.

　　The current Admiral's steel-boned empty end sat upright on the pile of documents, and the ashtray on the desk in front of him was already full of cigarette butts.

　　His brows were deeply furrowed, and there seemed to be an inescapable pressure on his shoulders.

　　in front of him,

　　The Warring States General, Staff Officer Crane, and Lieutenant General Garp were also frowning tightly as they continued to deal with the military documents in their hands.

　　"It's really troublesome..."

　　"The golden lion made such a fuss, it made the old man feel bad."

　　Garp put the senbei in his mouth with one hand, and complained impatiently.

　　The Warring States next to him rolled his eyes angrily, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

　　You bastards aren't working on files at all, okay, you just patronize and eat snacks there, do you think I can't see you drawing circles on that file?

　　However, the Warring States period was already familiar with the character of this second bastard, and he didn't bother to say anything to him. He wouldn't change it anyway.

　　Two days have passed since the first battle of Marin Vando. Although the war has ended, the navy has also won the final victory.

　　The culprit, the golden lion, was killed on the spot, and the accomplice, Douglas Barrett, was captured by Zefa and sent to the advance city prison. Take it easy.

　　However, the post-war work dealt with all the senior navy officials.

　　Akainu, Aokiji and Kizaru have been sent out to help and supervise the reconstruction of the military area of ​​Marin Vando.

　　Taotu and Tea Dolphin are resident in civilian areas and are mainly responsible for the reconstruction of the military school and the pacification of civilian areas.

　　And the few of them here need to deal with the pile of government and military documents in front of them.

　　statistics of war damage,

　　War (cgca) pensions for the dead and wounded,

　　planning and scheduling of reconstruction work,

　　Matters requesting appropriations from the world government,

　　There are also external announcements and declarations...

　　A series of ensuing problems did not end with the war.
