Ignite the fire from the pirates

Turning over and getting up, Zoro rushed over again with swollen eyes.

Kevin easily avoided it and hooked his foot again.

After a few times, little Zoro had a bamboo sword in each hand, and the one in his mouth was gone.

Dual sword style?

Fifteen minutes later, Zoro, who had fallen nine times, could no longer get up and fainted.

But Kevin looked at the green-haired guy with some envy. It turned out that his talent in swordsmanship was really poor.

I didn't fight back at all, but this kid was able to unconsciously master the basics of dual-sword style after falling down nine times.

You have to know that this is his first day at Koshiro's place. Before this, the so-called invincibility in the neighboring village was basically just a brave and aggressive person who swung a bamboo sword and chopped around.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have fought against Kuina, holding a dozen bamboo swords, but was hit on the forehead.

"Koshiro."

"gentlemen."

"Do you think I'm really not suitable for sword training?"

"Indeed, sir."

Kevin glanced at him and said, "Can't you say something nice?"

Koshiro bowed slightly: "Sir, your talent lies in your reaction speed far beyond that of ordinary people and your terrifying strength. With these two points, you are already a genius who can be called a monster."

The reaction speed comes from the Flying Thunder God's equipment, and the strength comes from the innate steel bones.

Come to think of it, the only thing that he has awakened by himself and can prove his talent seems to be the Conqueror's Haki.

As the mentor of the Revolutionary Army whose goal is to overthrow the World Government, the Domineering Haki that awakens under such a will is indeed a talent.

Scratching his head, Kevin waved his hand and said, "I'll go catch a Sea King and give them some supplements."

Without using Flying Thunder God, Kevin walked out of the dojo.

Koshiro held Zoro and found a place for him to sleep. After Kuina arranged the practice for the little kids, she found her father.

The two of them knelt.

"Can strength like that of sir be trained?"

Kuina looked at her father hopefully.

Koshiro shook his head slightly: "That is an innate talent. Although I don't know why it has only been revealed in the last one or two years, but as far as I know, such basic strength is a talent."

Kuina was a little disappointed and murmured in a low voice: "So it would be great if I were a boy, then..."

Koshiro has no comfort, which is inherited from his father Kozaburo's old-fashioned nature.

The idea that girls are inferior to boys and cannot inherit the dojo, besides being stimulating and motivating, may also contain some real ideas.

In fact, this kind of thinking has already shown signs of being overturned in the country of Wano today.

Chapter 146: The Shichibukai System, Zoro's Determination

Malinfando, Navy Headquarters.

Early in the morning, the trainees of the youth training camp noticed that the chief instructor had a very unhappy expression on his face. Fortunately, as long as everyone completed the training seriously, Teacher Zefa did not scold anyone specifically.

Soon, the morning briefing at the youth training camp ended, and General Zefa, who always watched over the students at the youth training camp, also left early today.

In the corridor leading to the Marshal's office, two figures, one big and one small, walked side by side. Although one of them was a general and the other a lieutenant general, they were old comrades.

"You came back also because of the notice from Mary Joa?"

Zephyr frowned, "Legalize pirates! And the navy is not allowed to attack them. Legal plunder! Do you think this is reasonable?"

[Note: The original novel does not specify the time of the Shichibukai system, but Crocodile said that he became a Shichibukai when he was in his early twenties. In addition, Dover is just starting to gain power, and the time when he attempted to seize Tenjo Gold and become a Shichibukai should be close.]

Lieutenant General He on the side lowered his head and narrowed his eyes slightly: "I came back to persuade you."

As soon as these words came out, Zefa stopped walking and turned to look at his old friend: "Do you know what you are talking about, He?"

Vice Admiral Tsuru opened his eyes and said calmly, "Then you should also know that neither we nor Sengoku can stop the World Government's decision."

After he finished speaking, Zefa clenched and then loosened his hands.

Yes, he knew it very well.

The Navy Headquarters had no way to refute the orders issued by Marijoa and could only execute them.

Zefa closed his eyes and a scene from many years ago flashed through his mind.

Originally known as the Admiral Who Never Kills, his will was shaken after his wife and son were killed by pirates. His fighting power declined and he became the chief instructor of the youth training camp.

Over the years, he has never forgotten the sorrow of that day.

Turning around, Zefa continued walking towards the marshal's office.

Crane sighed and followed.

Sometimes, people like Zefa, even if they know the reason why they have to obey orders, still need to vent their inner resistance.

She just hoped that Zefa would not be too extreme. Whether it was the Navy's youth training camp or himself, staying at the headquarters and continuing to serve as the chief instructor was the best outcome.

"Click."

The office door was pushed open.

Sengoku looked at Zephyr who walked in and breathed a sigh of relief. At least he didn't want to kick the door like that bastard Garp, which meant that the problem shouldn't be serious.

However, when he saw He following in from behind, he immediately understood why Zefa did not explode.

"call……"

After a long sigh of relief, Sengoku directly found the notification order issued by Marijoa and handed it to Zephyr.

Zefa didn't say anything either. He just read the notification document, put it down, turned around and left the office.

This situation surprised Zhan Guo a little. He looked at He and said, "I thought he would make a big scene, but he just left quietly like this."

Crane sighed, "There was a kid named Romi in Kuzan's youth training camp. The Sabaody Archipelago incident was just an offense, but the voices of 80% of the senior officers of the entire Marine Headquarters were just to save his life."

"Slaves are still slaves, and their death is in vain. To them, the navy is nothing more than a good dog."

Zhan Guo frowned: "Why do I feel like you are learning this from Kevin, that bastard?"

Crane shook his head slightly: "I didn't learn from him. I heard from Tina that the boy reformed the G5 branch quite well. Although the Wano Country incident cost some money, I can guess some things."

He brought the topic back to the topic: "The establishment of the Shichibukai system is already an order, so maybe we can do something about it."

"Ah."

Sengoku picked up the document. It was obvious that the two wise generals of the Navy Headquarters had their own understanding of this order from the World Government.

Although the power to appoint the Seven Warlords of the Sea lies with the World Government, the Navy also has the right to recommend.

Considering the status of a good dog in the Navy Headquarters, it would be no problem to recommend two or three positions.

Moreover, the appointment of this order cannot be executed immediately. After all, if the World Government appoints seven pirates to become the Seven Warlords of the Sea today, and these seven guys are killed by pirates who dislike them tomorrow, then the original meaning of this position will be lost.

The system of Seven Warlords of the Sea was introduced as a balancing measure to counterbalance the increasing number of pirates on the sea and the fact that the navy was outnumbered in terms of military strength.

The greatest significance of this is deterrence, and if the position of a Shichibukai is replaced every few days, then the title will be worthless.

"Then the candidate we recommend is..."

Zhan Guo was a little hesitant. For so many years, he had been thinking about how to catch those bastard pirates instead of making them his own people.

Vice Admiral Tsuru was also thinking about candidates. After thinking for a moment, he said, "The World Government's documents mentioned that priority should be given to those who have been defeated by pirates in the New World. Those who meet this condition..."

"Crocodile Crocodile, who failed in his challenge to Whitebeard, once fought a battle with Barrett of Roger's pirate group to a draw."

"After being defeated in the battle with the Undead Kaido in Wano Country several years ago, Gekko Moriah is currently relatively safe in the Devil's Delta."

Zhan Guo frowned, "Among these two, only Gekko Moriah is relatively stable at the moment. Crocodile, although I don't know what he is doing after leaving the New World, he is not a peaceful person."

Crane sighed, "Pirates are always pirates. No matter how we choose, we can't choose someone we can be completely satisfied with."

This made Zhan Guo's eyes light up: "Maybe..."

Before he could finish his words, Crane interrupted him directly: "The CP agents of the World Government are not idiots. They betrayed the navy and became pirates, and then created a battle to escape from the hands of the pirates, and then naturally became the Seven Warlords of the Sea. Do you think they are stupid?"

Sengoku was choked.

In this ocean, the World Government not only has the good dog, the Navy, but also the CP agents on Judicial Island and the Impel Down Castle where pirates are imprisoned.

To some extent, the intelligence capabilities of the CP agency are much stronger than those of the navy.

However, although the last point of the arrangement that He just mentioned could not be implemented, he had already started preparing for the previous ones.

"There is one thing I am very curious about. What prompted Marijoa to make such a decision? Although compared to the Great Pirate Era, the navy's suppression of pirates is indeed becoming increasingly weak, it shouldn't be to this extent."

Crane looked through the file again.

And Sengoku replied, "It's not just pirates. A year ago in Felevans, North Sea, the Revolutionary Army suddenly appeared and took away all the survivors."

"The matter of Freifans is not yet known to the world, but the Navy is aware of the entire incident."

"The Revolutionary Army has been missing for so many years. Even the cloaked man has not appeared in the Sabaody Archipelago. The bounty is not the highest anymore."

"But Marijoa will not relax her vigilance against them. You have to know that the number of revolutionary troops from the five countries of the Olga Kingdom who evacuated was not small."

"As for the current situation of disappearance, the World Government also knows that it is just dormant. They only caught small fish and shrimps, and some of them were rescued and some were determined."

"It is this firm will that made the decision."

He was silent for a while after hearing this.

"They are afraid. Remember the last time this happened, it was O'Hara, right? Notify the navy as quickly as possible to cooperate with the demon-killing order. Even ordinary people are unwilling to let it go."

"We haven't seen many such fears despite the huge disparity in combat power in recent years. So the Revolutionary Army is thinking about awakening..."

"crane!"

He was interrupted by Zhan Guo before he could finish his words. The two looked at each other and dropped the topic directly.

Afterwards, the two put their requests aside and started discussing the recommended candidates for the Seven Warlords of the Sea again.

At the same time, the Navy Headquarters and all over the world, the news bird also delivered newspapers to all parts of the world.

The world learned about the Seven Warlords of the Sea system promulgated by the World Government within one day.

In the Navy Headquarters, more than 80% of the officers were filled with indignation.

As a navy, they must hate this system. But like the navy's top brass, they have no way to stop it.

The students in the youth training camp also received this news after the training, and immediately understood why Teacher Zefa was in such a mood early in the morning.

In the waters near Fishman Island in the New World, Kuzan was lying on the deck and sleeping with an eye mask on.

Having turned justice into something ambiguous, he has been in this state for more than a year, and how he does things depends entirely on his mood.

For example, 99% of the pirates you encounter are basically committing murder, looting and other evil deeds, so just freeze them all into ice and smash them to pieces.

After the treasures were emptied, I would give money to poorer places along the way, and occasionally when I came across my family’s stronghold, I would just give all the money away.

As for the pirates other than the 99% majority, there are one or two pirate groups that are out for adventure, and this candidate admiral who sleeps very well basically cannot wake them up at that time.

"Coo, coo, coo! Coo!"

The news bird explained that today was big news and there was no bargaining, and its constant cooing made Kuzan sit up helplessly.

He looked at his adjutant and said, "It's only a hundred Baileys. There's no need to be so frugal, right?"

The adjutant scratched his head, took out a coin and gave it to the news bird, only to be looked at with contempt.

"Would you like to see it, Mr. Kuzan?"

Kuzan picked up the newspaper and was shocked by the large banner on the first page the moment he opened it.

Pirates with the legal right to plunder?

What is this?

Obey orders?

Will scum like pirates really obey orders?

It's almost the same as working without putting in any effort.
