After retiring from the Navy, I became a doting husband.

"marshal!"

Kuzan and Borsalino spoke at the same time, but then stopped, because they couldn't find a good reason to refuse.

"What... do you two have any objections?" Sengoku knew what they were thinking, but still asked.

Since the golden generation of Sakazuki, Kuzan, and Borsalino, the Navy seems to have declined after its peak, with a shortage of talent and no successors, which makes him always feel that there is no one to use.

The cradle of naval admirals, the naval academy, has become increasingly desolate. Since the emergence of three admirals, no more monstrous figures have appeared. What is going on?

Sengoku didn't know that since the first military academy recruitment, the academy had never received any promising students. Later, one of the three admirals, Kuzan, was directly recruited by Garp, not through recruitment. The Navy, envious of the recruits, had to go through the World Government, and the World Government intercepted all the promising students.

Ultimately, this resulted in the Navy being unable to produce high-level combat monsters, while the World Government, despite having high-potential personnel, also failed to cultivate high-combat power. Truly powerful individuals are never trained, but forged in battle; only fire and blood can forge true monsters. The Navy engages in the most combat, while the World Government only has agents who are good at petty theft and thievery.

"Without a marshal, I just can't understand why Teacher Zephyr can't train anyone anymore. We were mostly taught by Teacher Zephyr before. Logically, the longer he teaches, the more experienced he should be. How come the people he teaches are getting worse and worse?" Kuzan said, scratching his head.

Borsalino, on the other hand, hadn't even considered that aspect. He was busy thinking about how to clock in and out, how to avoid missions, and how to slack off.

As the saying goes, a single word can awaken a dreamer. Sengoku suddenly stopped and stood still. Kuzan's words greatly reminded him that he seemed to have overlooked something all these years. He used to think that all people were the same, and the only difference was in their upbringing. Now it seemed that he was wrong. Monsters are not cultivated; monsters are born.

"Kuzan, Borsalino, are you trying to slack off?"

Kuzan and Borsalino were completely bewildered. What did the Sengoku Marshal mean by this?

Unable to understand, Kuzan and Borsalino didn't give it much thought and said in unison, "We do!"

"Haha! I knew you guys wanted to slack off. To be honest, I wanted to slack off too. Facing so many documents every day makes me realize how wise that bastard Garp's decision was. But things still need to be done, justice needs to be implemented, and we also need good successors to inherit our justice in the future."

"Marshal! What does this have to do with whether we're slacking off or not?" Kuzan was a little confused by Sengoku's question.

"Of course it's related. I'm giving you a mission: whenever you go out on a mission or on leave and encounter someone with good qualifications and high potential, bring them back to Naval Headquarters. As long as the person you bring back has potential, I'll grant you leave."

"Really, Marshal, you keep your word!"

Kuzan and Borsalino once again said in unison that for a lazy person, there is no better treatment than paid vacation.

"Of course I'm a Fleet Admiral!"

When the Warring States period made adjustments to the acquisition of talent, the Harem Ship had already flown to the vicinity of the Sky Island.

……

Gan Fall heard the strange noise from the sky and leaped into the air on his horse. Although he knew Martin was coming, he didn't know how Martin would arrive, so after receiving the call, he sent Eagle Super to Gaya Island to wait for him.

"Huff! Huff!..."

Gan Fall rode his horse and flew off like the wind. Soon he saw a huge creature flying towards the sky island, which startled him greatly. This huge creature was almost as big as the Holy Land.

"call!"

Although Gan Fall was startled, he was not afraid. He controlled Pierre to fly over the Harem and then swooped down to protect the Sky Island, which was his greatest duty in life.

Martin, aboard the Harem, also saw Gan Fall flying over and quickly stepped out of his cabin. Braving the strong wind, he stood on the deck and shouted, "Gan Fall, are you here to welcome us home?"

Upon hearing Martin's call, Gan Fall stopped his dive, pulled up his mask, and exclaimed happily, "God, it's you guys back! You were quite a sight to behold, flying around like that!"

Gan Fall jumped off Pierre and landed on the deck of the Harem.

Martin saw Gan Fall jump onto the Harem Ship, walked over and hugged him tightly. "How are you? Is the Skypiea alright?"

“God, everything is fine. The people on the island are living better and better lives, and they are happier and happier. It’s all thanks to God!” Gan Fall replied excitedly when Martin asked about life on the island.

"That's great! Let's go back to Sky Island and take a look." Martin was also excited when he heard Gan Fall's words. Sky Island was his base.

Following his instructions, everyone on Lili Island has now moved to the Sky Island.

Now he is the god of the Sky Island.

The Harem Ship stopped on the white sea near the Holy Land of the Kingdom of Gods. Martin led a group of people off the Harem Ship. Many of them had never heard of Sky Island, let alone now that they were standing on it, and were extremely curious.

Martin walked down the street in God's Kingdom. When passersby saw Martin's arrival, they stopped what they were doing, bowed to their God, and said that their wonderful lives were all thanks to God.

Martin quickly walked down the street and arrived at his headquarters in the Kingdom of God.

"Everyone, please sit down!"

Enel and the others found seats and sat down after hearing Martin's words.

Martin met up with Robin and his wives, and they happily hugged each other and started chatting. He even told Robin about all the things he had experienced during their separation, which made the women extremely envious. They loudly declared that they wanted to go together next time.

"Alright, our adventure has come to an end. Although it's a pity we didn't find the final island, don't be discouraged. We'll definitely find Laugh Tale next time. I have a general idea of ​​when, and now we just have to wait for it to happen. I have some ideas I want to do. Finding Laugh Tale will definitely reveal the truth about the Void Century, which will inevitably lead to conflict with the World Government, so I plan to prepare early. Actually, I had this plan from the beginning, but I was too busy adventuring on the high seas to build up my power. Now it's different; I have the time and you all."

"Captain, we'll listen to you about whatever force you want to build," Enel declared first.

"Captain, just give the orders!"

"God, your commands are our strength."

……

"Thank you for your support. As you all see, this flag reflects the many injustices in this world. Although the Navy represents justice, everyone knows they only represent the justice defined by the World Government and the Celestial Dragons, not true justice. The organization I want to establish, just like the one depicted on this flag, will reward good and punish evil, addressing all injustices in the world. No matter who the perpetrator is—Celestial Dragons, World Government officials, or the Navy—anyone who commits evil will be punished."

"Captain, your idea is good, but if we really do that, we'll be at odds with the whole world," Enel said worriedly, feeling immense pressure as the world was rife with injustice.

“Enel, in this world, we should not be enemies with everyone. The more enemies we have, the more people need our help. Don’t worry, I think there are many people who think like us. As long as we establish our power, they will join us and work with us to create an ideal country and an ideal world.”

"Since the captain has made up his mind, let's do it!"

"Whatever the captain does, we'll do!"

"God's enemies are our enemies."

……

"Captain, what is the name of our force?"

"I've decided on a name: the Temple of Good and Evil. We will all become gods in the eyes of the common people, we will all be incarnations of gods, rewarding those who do good and punishing all evil."

"The Temple of Good and Evil!"

"The Temple of Good and Evil!"

Those present kept calling out the name, feeling that the matter wasn't as bad as they had imagined, and might even be an interesting thing.

"Alright, everyone can give themselves a code name, a code name that suits your characteristics. For example, Enel is a Logia-type Rumble-Rumble Fruit user, so he can be called the God of Thunder."

"Thor? Actually, I'd like to change my title."

Enel immediately felt something was off about the title and started clamoring to change it.

Chapter 235 God King Martin

After speaking, Enel began racking his brains, trying to come up with a powerful, awesome, and prestigious title for himself. Unfortunately, he couldn't think of a good name after trying for a long time. It seemed that only the name Thor was suitable for him.

Joel gave himself the title of "God of Slaughter," as he seemed to have no other special characteristics besides his skill in assassination.

Based on her Logia-type Snow-Snow Fruit ability, Monet gave herself the title of Snow Goddess or Snow Woman.

Smoothie also wanted to give herself a name, but after thinking for a long time, she couldn't come up with a good one, so she gave up on the idea.

Jason and Django had also come up with their own titles, but Martin changed them to Black and White Impermanence.

Robin gave herself the title "Flower Goddess".

Martin also established a series of rules and regulations, as well as arrangements for the future society. In fact, these have already been implemented on Skypiea, including various new systems, laws, education, medical care, and so on, to bring about a rule of law and human order in this chaotic world. The Skypiea inhabitants have become accustomed to these, so they will be the best teachers in the future.

Of course, the most important thing next is to create Hades.

Everything about Hades has been deciphered; all that remains is the manufacturing process.

For this reason, Martin went to Water 7 and invited Tom, the world's best shipbuilder, and Franky, a young cyborg shipbuilder.

Upon hearing this, the mayor of Water City, who is also the president of Carrera Corporation, Iceberg, offered various forms of assistance.

Actually, hiring someone didn't cost much money.

Upon hearing that it was about creating Pluto and that there were complete blueprints, Tom and the others recklessly followed him to the Sky Island, bringing with them a lot of materials.

Spring, summer, autumn, and winter have passed in the blink of an eye, and five years have gone by in a flash.

The island became unusually lively, with various small villas scattered across it and distinct streets.

Many floating vessels, including pirate ships and merchant ships, were moored in the harbor.

There is also a training ground on the island, where many men in uniform are training.

At a market on a sky island.

The owner of this butcher shop is extremely vicious.

The butcher shop has several large, cursive characters carved on its front door: "Elegant Butcher Shop".

Don't misunderstand anything.

The butcher was a middle-aged man with a full beard named "Boss Ma," hence his nickname: Elegant.

As for whether the boss is truly elegant, many people feel that this is debatable.

There are always a few women posing seductively around the elegant butcher shop.

Mr. Ma, wearing a black apron, was leaning against the beam of the meat stall, holding a crystal goblet with a straw and a lemon hanging from it, with three fingers. He was looking up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, his eyes revealing a deep sense of confusion.

"Wow! Mr. Ma, you're so handsome, you really are a good-looking man."

"That captivating drinking posture, and the martini in his hand, both deeply fascinate me."

"Oh, he's so handsome. Every move he makes is mesmerizing. He's the most handsome meat seller in history."

Several middle-aged women applying lipstick gathered around the butcher shop, like flies swarming around the meat, drooling and buzzing.

"Uh... I really can't agree with this kind of aesthetic."

In many people's eyes, the butcher was all muscle, wearing only shorts and slippers, and a black apron, with chest hair and a full beard.

Looking at the dusty signboard above, a bald man walked into the butcher shop and shouted, "My strength can uproot mountains and my spirit can cover the world!"

The brooding, brooding man who had just entered suddenly turned around, his eyes wide, and the martini glass he was holding instantly fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.

He looked up to the sky and sighed, "The times are against me, and my steed will not go!"

He then asked, "What do you need?"

The bald man entered and whispered, "I heard the Queen is coming. You'd better get ready."

"They have already landed on the island."

Mr. Ma nodded: "I understand, I'll go right away."
