I am a Celestial Dragon!

"Ha ha!"

Listening to Zefa's helpless voice, Gawain smiled and waved his hand.

"It's just a joke, Teacher Zefa, don't mind. It's okay to chat with you all the time, but let me really shout those words..."

To be honest, most people really can't stand that face. "

As he spoke, Gawain gently shook the injured hand. He turned a deaf ear to the pain in his hand, but this scene of constant bleeding was really not suitable to continue.

So he raised his injured hand to Zefa.

"Teacher Zefa, how about we talk somewhere else?

Where is the hospital at the Navy Headquarters? You always take me for a few steps, and I'll take care of it briefly.

By the way, are the two people behind you your old students, Ain and Binz? "

As he spoke, Gawain nodded slightly to the two people who looked astonished.

"When we first met, my appearance scared you. I hope you don't take it to heart."

"How dare we!!!"

After listening to Gawain's words, Binz, who looked like a ninja who had a good life, quickly shook his head.

Then he plopped and knelt heavily on the ground.

"This is Binz, a user with the ability to grow fruit. For the time being... he is only a second lieutenant in the navy. I have met Saint Gao Wen!"

At the same time, Ayin beside Binz also bent her long legs. She knelt on one knee in front of Gawain, lowered her head gently and said.

"I am Xia Ai Yin, a person with retrograde fruit ability and an ineffective disciple of Zefa Sensai. I have met Saint Gao Wen."

After the words fell, Ai Yin swallowed and looked up at Gawain.

After just one glance, she quickly averted her gaze. Why didn't even a Celestial Dragon like Gao Wensheng dislike wearing tops?

But yes, the weather is so hot after all, I'm already sweating a little...

On the side, looking at the two people kneeling down, Gawain smiled and narrowed his eyes.

"You're welcome, get up quickly, please give me directions and take Mr. Zefa and me to the naval hospital.

By the way, Teacher Zefa, your right hand...? "

While speaking, Gawain reached out towards Zefa's mechanical right hand.

Looking at Gawain's stretched out hand, Zefa angrily handed his right hand forward.

"It's just a substitute, but are you sure you want to touch it?

This thing is not something that capable people can touch! "

"Oh, is it made of sea floor stone?"

Gawain responded to Zefa's words while gently patting Zefa's seastone manipulator.

"Well, it's the same as the feeling of contact with sea water. It's not that I have completely lost my ability, but that I have no strength to exert my ability!"

Gawain commented briefly.

Indeed, as he said, whether it is the sea tower stone or the sea tower factor contained in the sea water, their function is not to make the ability user lose his or her ability.

Once a person with abilities eats the fruit, nothing can make his abilities disappear except death.

Even the Sea Tower Stone's function is only to be able to contact the body of the natural fruit and to deprive the esper of power!

Just like in the original animation, when Luffy was holding Zefa drifting on the sea, because he accidentally held Zefa's seastone in his right hand, Luffy fell down instantly.

But even so, his right hand still maintained an elongated rubber state.

In addition, when Aokiji was talking to them in the hot spring, Luffy also stretched his hands in the tub, and Aokiji used his ability to condense his own ice legs as soon as he got out of the water.

It can be seen from this that the Hailou Factor can only completely disable the ability user.

It will not cause the person with abilities to lose their abilities.

The same is true for Gawain who is holding the sea floor stone. He can feel that after touching the sea floor stone, except for the palm that is in close contact with the sea floor stone, other parts of him can still turn into lightning.

However, when he came into contact with Hailou Stone, it became difficult for him to even raise his hand.

After feeling exhausted, Gawain let go of Zefa's mechanical hand.

"Old man, let's talk as we walk. The reason why I came all the way is because you must know what I mean, so I won't cover it up.

I would like to ask you to be the chief instructor of our Black Bird Group! "

On the side, after hearing this, Zefa immediately wanted to raise his hand and say something.

However, Gawain endured the feeling of exhaustion and held Zefa's hand.

"You will never agree outright, so if you answer so simply, what you are going to say is probably rejection!

Don't talk so early, haha.

Teacher Zefa, you might as well listen to what I mean. What if some of the conditions I put forward happen to impress you?

So just listen to me first, okay? "

Having said this, Gawain waved his hand to Ain and Binz to lead the way.

Seeing this, the two of them had no choice but to nod, and then walked towards the hospital with Gawain.

As they walked, Gawain continued to speak to the sullen Zefa.

"I know, old man, the reason why you don't want to board my ship is probably because of the navy in front of you that you can't let go of.

However, I noticed that the way you looked at the naval headquarters around you did not seem particularly satisfied.

So, on the one hand, you love the Navy Headquarters deeply, but on the other hand, you are quite dissatisfied with it.

Although it is cruel to say this, you must admit that this place is no longer suitable for you! "

Speaking of this, Gawain pointed at the young sailors who were passing by, but even Zefa didn't recognize them at all.

It stands to reason that with the popularity of Zefa as a former general, no one in the navy who patrols in the past should know him.

But at this time, as they walked along, no one even saluted Zefa.

Of course, Gawain looks rather embarrassed now, so few ordinary sailors can recognize Gawain.

Therefore, they actually dragged the old, young and disabled lineup and walked safely into the naval headquarters without being noticed by any passing sailors.

At the same time, Gawain pointed at the passing sailors and continued to speak to Zefa softly.

"Hey, Teacher Zefa, there are currently three generals in the navy, as well as all lieutenant generals, and most of the captain-level officers.

Those people are all your disciples.

Elder, Porusalino is your first disciple.

Whether it was young people, whether it was Ain and Binzi in front of them, or the user who had just emerged recently and had the ability of the Smoke Fruit.

At least in the navy, you can really achieve success all over the world.

but……. "

Speaking of this, Gawain couldn't help but think of Zefa's original life.

If Gawain had not come to this world, Zefa would have established the so-called neo navy three years after establishing the naval guerrillas.

Finally decided to blow up the new world to practice and prove his justice.

His ending was that he left this world in the way that his second disciple personally ordered it, his first disciple personally took action, and his third disciple personally buried him.

For a teacher, such an ending is not a bleak one. Being able to teach his disciples something before his death meant that Zefa had no regrets in his career as a teacher.

But speaking as a Marine, or as an Admiral….

Zefa's life is indeed a bit sad...

The most tragic thing is not Zefa's death. After all, death is inevitable for everyone, and it may be heavier than Mount Tai or lighter than a feather.

People like Zefa are supposed to be vigorous, but in the original plot, if Zefa had not caused a disturbance that destroyed the world.

Then he may never be mentioned by the young people on the sea again until his death!

Just imagine, Kerby who was following Garp at that time can illustrate this problem very well.

Kerby, who was personally trained by Garp and became a rear admiral just two years after joining the navy, can already be said to be an elite among the new generation of the navy.

But when Zefa snatched the explosive rock and planned to destroy the new world.

Even outstanding generals of the new generation like Kebi don't know who Zefa is!

If it weren't for Garp's explanation, sailors like Kebi wouldn't even know that Zefa once held the position of general.

In other words, at least now there is no Zefa who wants to destroy the new world...

After half his glorious life and half his wasted life, he finally reached an ending that no one knew about.

Thinking of this, Gawain looked at Zefa with a little bit of sadness and regret that was hard to see.

At the same time, facing Gawain's words, Zefa shook his head disdainfully.

"But what, hum, I have seen too many self-righteous brats like you, Gao Wensheng!

The but in your mouth is just to say that my life has become miserable, isn't it?

And if you stopped me before, did you also think that I would just say rejection? "

Having said this, Zefa grinned and showed a disdainful expression.

"Hmph, a young man like you is at your most confident stage, and it is precisely at the time when you are most confident that you have achieved great success!

So, just chatting with me for a few words, you will always say the words you think.

But I must tell you that the only thing you think you are sure of is yourself. Anyone else or anything may become an accident beyond what you think!

Just like you interrupted me before, do you really know what I want to say to you?

No, you don't know! "

After the words fell, Zefa curled his lips at Gawain.

“Before today, when Sakaski told me about your invitation.

I really have no intention of agreeing!

But today, after I installed this hand, I finally called Sakaski and told him that I would like to meet you!

Just like I didn't expect you to come so soon!

You didn’t guess my plan either.

I want to make a deal with you! "

Zefa raised his mechanical right hand towards Gawain.

"With this newbie, I am finally no longer the disabled person I was in the past four years, haha!

Therefore, I want to get out of the current predicament and really do something!

I want to hunt down the pirates with abilities in this sea. I also want to save money and manpower to form a new navy that relies on my will!

On my own, even in two or three years, I may not be able to save dozens or hundreds of boats!

But if I can get your support, then you, the God of Wealth on the great voyage, can easily realize my wish!

Therefore, what I wanted to say to you before was not a word of rejection!

I want to talk to you, Gawain!

If you are willing to support me with a sum of money, then I will give you all I have learned in my life during my spare time!

And you, are you willing to give me the answer I want? "

"Ha ha!!!"

After listening to Zefa's words, Gawain burst out laughing. While laughing, he reached out and patted Zefa's normal arm.

"Teacher Zefa, are you kidding? You are... building a new navy...

Before saying this, why don't you think carefully about what I have done in the past?

Look at the people I have recruited and the things I have done, don’t you think I am establishing a new world government?

So, hahahaha, the reason why I want to invite you to join my team is to invite you to build my future army! "

After the words fell, Gawain looked at Ai Yin and Binz who suddenly stopped in front of them, their legs trembling.

How could these two people have imagined that they could actually hear such... treasonous words from Gawain in the Navy Headquarters! ! !

Seeing the extremely shocked looks in their eyes, Gawain smiled and waved his hand.

"Why are you so shocked? Just think I'm bragging.

Have you two grown up without ever hearing other people bragging about you?

Keep leading the way, haha.

By the way, I am about to become Teacher Zefa’s disciple, so should I call you senior brother and senior sister, Ai Yin, and Binz? "

"No, no, no... I don't dare!!!"

"How can it be!!!"

For a moment, Ai Yin and Binz, who were originally nervous, became even more nervous. They quickly waved to Gawain.

"How dare we be your senior brothers!"

"Wait a minute, Gao Wensheng, that's not what he meant. He meant that we are not worthy of being your senior sisters!"

Well, facing Gawain's teasing, both of them were so nervous that they could hardly speak.

But in this way, the two of them also successfully forgot Gawain's rebellious speech just now.

So immediately, Yi Yi followed them both and continued walking towards the hospital.

Zefa took a deep breath.

"No wonder I couldn't help but admire you when I saw you for the first time!

Not only because of the scars and training marks on your body, I have seen that even among the Tianlong people, there are people like you who are self-disciplined and strict!

It’s not just because you rushed to me as soon as you received the news from me, you made me deeply appreciate your respect for me!

The reason why I feel that I appreciate you is because you have the same deviant thoughts in your heart!

I just remembered that you said there was dissatisfaction in my eyes when I looked at the Navy Headquarters.

But when I look into your eyes, I also feel that there is dissatisfaction hidden in your eyes when you look at the world, haha! ! ! "

After the words fell, Zefa stretched out his left hand and patted Gawain's shoulder heavily.

"I can't agree to you directly yet, although to a certain extent, I don't mind letting the new navy I want to create be affiliated with your new regime!

But no matter what, I must at least get familiar with your character and the core of your entire force!

After all, there are too many people on your ship that I hate!

The esper Shichibukai, and even Rayleigh from One Piece Legend!

I don’t like them! ! !

Even if they are now your people, to the point where they were almost stripped of their pirate identities by the Navy and the World Government.

But I won’t believe that they really got rid of their identity as pirates and became a force against pirates just by hearing about them!

In short, I originally wanted to steal a warship and drive it to the upside down mountain to meet you, because your route is to the upside down mountain.

However, since you are willing to come to see me, you still treat me with such extra respect.

In this case, I have the right to teach you for a few months before deciding everything else!

As for now…. "

Zefa said while looking at Gawain's right hand.

"The way you are now may have an impact on your future. Even if you have subordinates like Bartholomew Bear, you can't let injuries that damage your veins and tendons go unchecked!

Four and a half years ago, I was attacked by that flamingo. He took advantage of my first asthma attack and cut off my right hand!

Even if it was reattached afterwards, the nerves in my right hand were irreversibly damaged!

With my example before you, how dare you not cherish your body, Gao Wensheng! ! ! "

"etc!!!"

On the side, Gawain was stunned when he heard Zefa's words. He asked Zefa in a daze.

"Teacher Zefa, what did you just say?

You said the person who cut off your right hand was Doflamingo?

What about Whitebeard II? Shouldn't it be Whitebeard II who did it? "

"What Whitebeard II?"

Zefa was also stunned, and he frowned and asked Gawain.

"What are you talking about, who is Whitebeard II, Marco the Phoenix?"

Today is still too busy. My grandpa is not in good health recently, and my uncle, who drives a car, went on a long trip last Friday and was unable to accompany him.

So my mother and I took turns accompanying each other.

The hospital environment is not very good, and the weather in summer is very busy. I wrote very slowly, and it took me until night to finish four to five thousand words...

I'll have a good sleep tonight, return to normal tomorrow, and start making up the three chapters I owe over the weekend.

Love you guys.
