From Pirate to Revolutionary Mentor

Chapter 86 A Man's Cry for Help

After the Revolutionary Army's high-level meeting concluded, Kevin left Baltigo directly and returned to Marine Headquarters.

The relocation of those five islands in the Kingdom of Olga doesn't require too many people; Uncle Bear, Dragon, and Ginny are enough.

With the Flying Cloud in Ginny's hands, it can serve as a high vantage point for observation. Once Uncle Bear and Dragon have eliminated the CPs they need to monitor, the relocation operation can begin.

The boat will be transported to that area tonight by buoyancy and Uncle Xiong. In addition, we need to do some ideological work with all the members.

This includes family members who are unaware of the full story.

Three days...

Since Mary Geoise has still laid a trap in the Sabaody Archipelago, even going so far as to use a real Celestial Dragon as bait, it seems that she wants to capture me first in Sabaody.

Three days should be manageable.

Under the cover of night, Kevin sat cross-legged in the room, still keeping his Zanpakuto on his person.

But I just can't seem to settle down today.

My mind was filled with images of the fat worms of Mary Geoise and the Knights of God I saw in God Valley, that guy with the hook-like hair.

Five monsters among the powers, and Im among the flowers, the blow that destroyed the Kingdom of Lulucia.

It was late at night when Kevin sighed, put the light bag down, and went straight to sleep.

It seems like this is something we can only leave to fate.

……

The next morning, the youth training camp had a knife skills class.

As soon as he entered, Smoker, who had blocked his way, followed him and sat down next to him.

"I noticed your attack yesterday, and I'm doing it again today!"

Kevin glanced at him: "Don't leave after class."

Smoker's bruised left eye hadn't healed yet, but he still nodded firmly: "Okay, I'll definitely avoid it this time."

The brief conversation between the two prompted Hinata Tina, who was standing behind them, to complain, "Smoker, this has happened more than ten times already, and you always say the same thing."

She glanced at Kevin, then leaned closer to Smoker and whispered, "Tina heard that in the entire youth academy, only four monsters have emerged since Coach Zephyr took over. The first three are currently candidates for Admiral, and there are even rumors that they will soon be promoted to Admiral."

At this point, Tina couldn't help but look at Smoker, whose left eye was swollen shut: "If he hit your right eye today, Tina thinks you don't need to come to training tomorrow."

Smoker said nonchalantly, "Anyway, I wasn't planning on using a knife. I heard that headquarters has the technology for inlaying seastone, so I'm preparing to..."

"Are you planning to use Seastone as a means of dealing with ability users?"

Kevin interrupted him, directly mocking, "It seems your goal has changed from defeating me to dodging my attacks. So what do you think you'll achieve after dodging? You can't even break my defense."

"So trash should stay in the trash can, what a waste of a Logia-type Devil Fruit. So that's all the magnanimity you have."

One sentence is enough to deliver a full dose of sarcasm.

The white-haired boy, who was still a young man in his teens, almost exploded. His face turned red, and his one-eyed appearance was quite frightening.

"What? You're planning to explode on the spot because you can't win? Even if you explode, you won't hurt me. You've only just mastered Armament Haki and you're already planning to give up. Calling you trash is an understatement."

Kevin glanced at the white-haired guy: "Trash can only get angry. I think you should just go back to the East Blue and play house with the pirates there. That way, your Seastone weapon would probably be legendary, and you could dominate the battlefield. What do you think?"

This was the first time Kevin had ever spoken so much to Smoker, but this first conversation almost gave him a heart attack.

Tina, who was standing nearby, thought for a moment and then added, "Zeff said that Haki is the foundation of a strong person, and you can't rely too much on Devil Fruit abilities."

Kevin: "Even a little girl is better than you, you idiot."

At that moment, Momousagi, who was explaining swordsmanship on stage, glanced over. Kevin smiled at her, while the other two newcomers immediately fell silent.

After a brief explanation, the training continued with chopping and slashing, and Smoker approached them.

Kevin punched him in the right eye until it swelled up, then went straight to practice his knife skills.

In the end, Tina helped him up and took him to the infirmary, where he was truly unable to open his eyes.

"Major General Kevin."

Kevin glanced back, then continued his all-out attack, casually adding, "Vice Admiral Momousagi, is something wrong? If you're on a date, you can wait for me."

Momousagi frowned: "I just think that kind of criticism of a child is not a good thing."

Kevin continued his training without stopping: "I think if a Logia-type Devil Fruit user gives up training in Armament Haki, then he can really go back to the East Blue."

These words caused Gion Momousagi to fall silent for a moment.

This training camp has returned to normal. There are no more genius young people who can earn the title of "monster," but there are still quite a few next-level talents.

Smoker, a Logia-type Devil Fruit user, received a great deal of attention from the very beginning.

This is why she said something; after all, the reputation of the major general in front of her was well-known throughout the headquarters.

But although what I just said was still stiff, it wasn't wrong.

Without Armament Haki, even Logia-type Devil Fruit users can only play house on the open seas; on the Grand Line, Logia-type users will only be doomed.

Thinking of this, Momousagi didn't say anything and turned to leave, but Kevin glanced at him.

The name of the sword has another meaning; it refers to Lieutenant General Tsuru as his elder brother.

After finishing with Kuzan, we need to shift our focus, and this person's performance in the memories tends to be positive. In addition, given the relationship with Tsuru, he could be a new source of information if possible.

The Revolutionary Army has now attracted the attention of the World Government. If it weren't for a whim trip to Enies Lobby, the five strongholds of the Olga Kingdom would likely have suffered heavy losses.

Among the older generation of the Navy, Garp has always been unreliable, and Sengoku only had Tsuru as someone he could truly discuss important matters with.

Kevin sighed as he looked at the sword in his hand. Even in his current state, he could still use it as a Marine.

If this sword could directly achieve Bankai, why would we need to consider these things?

……

Naval Headquarters, Marshal's Office.

"The World Government has ordered the Navy to cooperate in the operation, specifically naming Kuzan, but the timing is still uncertain. Also, Borsalino is on standby at the Sabaody Archipelago."

Sengoku handed the notice in his hand to Tsuru, and then spoke again: "In addition, intelligence indicates that people from the World Government have gone to the North Blue and seem to be in contact with the Germa Kingdom."

Germa?

Crane looked up and said, "Borusalino is guarding against the cloaked people. The notification to coordinate the operation with the navy is most likely for the purpose of encirclement, but we don't know the target."

"As for the Germa Kingdom in the North Blue, I remember they are also one of the member states. Although the World Conference has been activated, it's not yet time to welcome the kings of various countries."

At this point, Lieutenant General Crane fell silent for a moment.

After a moment's thought: "Vegapunk's disappearance brought research on lineage factors and other things to a standstill. Back then, there were two leading scientists in MADS: one was King Judge of Germa, and the other was Caesar."

Having clarified his thoughts, Zhan Guo also breathed a sigh of relief.

The last Buster Call destroyed Ohara, and this time, with the Navy's cooperation, he originally thought it would be another island that would be destroyed.

Eighteen years ago, the Celestial Dragons would destroy a country every three years to use it as a hunting ground for their school trips.

Compared to that time, things are much better now.

After Sengoku used a Den Den Mushi to notify Borsalino to stand by, silence fell over the office.

After a long while, the crane stood up and walked outside.

"During the Warring States period, this sea doesn't seem to have changed much over the years."

Before the words were even finished, the crane had already left.

Meanwhile, Sengoku sat in his seat, his brows furrowed tightly.

He, Garp, Zephyr, and Tsuru can be considered the pillars of the previous generation of the Navy.

They joined the navy in their youth with the ambition to eliminate all criminals and change the world.

But decades later, the Great Pirate Era was ushered in by Roger, and the seas seemed to become even more chaotic.

"Bang!"

The office door was kicked open, and Sengoku, lost in his memories, knew without a doubt which old bastard it was.

Upon seeing the senbei in his hand, he was completely shocked.

"You old bastard! How dare you steal my rice crackers!"

Garp threw the last piece into his mouth, crunched it up, and then turned the packaging bag upside down to indicate that there wasn't a single piece left.

"If I don't have anything to do recently, I'll go back to Donghai for a vacation. It's been almost a year since I've been back."

Sengoku nearly crushed the armrest in his hand: "Don't even think about it! The number of pirates has increased many times over in the past year, and you're still thinking about taking a vacation?!"

"The world government just notified us that you can't take a vacation!"

Garp shrugged: "I'm just a lieutenant general. They're in charge of the field marshals and generals. I have absolutely nothing to do with them."

Garp, who had only come to give a briefing, immediately left, leaving Sengoku venting his anger in the office.

"Bulu Bulu, Bulu Bulu..."

After answering the Den Den Mushi, Sengoku's grim expression softened considerably.

"Is something wrong, Xiaomi?"

"Are you really going?"

"Your file was extracted from the Navy a long time ago, and currently only Vice Admiral Tsuru, who is in charge of Doflamingo, knows about it."

"If you insist."

"Your Devil Fruit ability is indeed impressive, but you must be careful. I will allow you to retreat if there is any danger."

After hanging up the phone, Zhan Guo was filled with worry.

Four years after the execution in Loguetown, the sea had become chaotic, and ambitious people were starting to stir.

After exhaling, Sengoku resumed dealing with the matters before him.

……

Two days later, Ginny informed Kevin that the preliminary work for the relocation of the five islands had been completed and the relocation could proceed at any time.

It was a day ahead of schedule, which relieved Kevin.

As long as the trap in the Sabaody Archipelago attracts attention, the monitoring personnel on the five islands of the Kingdom of Olga will be killed, and the relocation plan will not be blocked for a short time.

But this means we can't just kill and run this time.

We need to delay this a bit more.

After the morning swordsmanship class, the shadow clone stayed behind, while the main body, wearing a mask and cloak, appeared directly in the Sabaody Archipelago.

After wandering around the lawless zone and getting discovered by the World Government, Kevin leisurely made his way to the auction house.

Nearly two years ago, Kevin's cleanup of the Sabaody Archipelago had put an end to human trafficking organizations for a long time. However, since the auction house in Area One reopened without incident, human trafficking shops here have started to flourish again.

However, compared to the beginning, it has become much more low-key.

Since one of the crab tasters was unharmed, everyone naturally assumed that the cloaked figure had either disappeared or been captured.

In Area 1 of the Sabaody Archipelago, wherever the Celestial Dragons went, everyone knelt down, and no one dared to raise their head, especially the beautiful women.

This is a lawless zone, but even pirates would choose to stay far away from it.

"Finally, it's my turn to come down and play. My brother has already come down twice, and I've only come once. This time, I'm going to find some fun ones. Those two women from last time were too fragile; they died too quickly."

The Celestial Dragon wearing a hood became very angry at this and immediately pulled out his gun, pointing it at both sides of the street.

Soon, he spotted a striking blond.

"Bang."

The lead bullet was fired, but due to poor aim, it hit the scapula.

The woman knelt on the ground by the street, enduring excruciating pain but daring not to move.

Life in the lawless zone is already tough enough, so why do the Celestial Dragons still come here every day?!

Will I die?

The child's father has almost saved enough money to move out of this area soon, so why...?

"Mother!"

"Mommy, you're hurt, waaaaah..."

"Mom, you're bleeding!"

"Waaah..."

The woman pushed her daughter down and covered her mouth, ignoring the excruciating pain in her shoulder.

But it was clearly too late.

The Celestial Dragon, who was very confident in his marksmanship, was in an even worse mood because he had just missed. Yet, someone still dared to stand up!

"Bang!"

The lead bullet was fired again, but the girl's mother stopped it, holding the little girl tightly.

"You despicable wretch, how dare you block my shot!"

Enraged, the Celestial Dragon continued to pull the trigger, hitting the woman in the back with every shot, leaving blood flowing everywhere.

Gradually, the woman lost the strength to hold the child.

"Waaaaah..."

The little girl, her face streaked with tears, was released, and when you reached out, you saw that her hand was covered in blood.

"Kneel...kneel, no...don't...speak."

The woman's pupils gradually dilated, and she collapsed to the ground.

The little girl, who was crying incessantly, rushed over and tried to block the bullet holes, but she had been hit in too many places.

She knelt down and looked around. Everyone was kneeling, not daring to raise their heads.

"Please, please save my mother. Is there a doctor? I have money, I have money..."

As she spoke, the girl pulled out a few Baileys from her dress. They were her saved allowance, which she had only intended to use to buy a bouquet of flowers for her mother.

"Please, uncles, uncles, aunts... save my mother..."

The little girl tried to help the man next to her, but he avoided her and pushed her away, remaining kneeling motionless.

Not only him, but everyone on both sides of the street knelt down, too afraid to move.
