"You're getting more and more disrespectful!"
Zefa slapped away the hand that was touching his forehead and laughed, scolding, "Is this how I taught you when you were a kid?!"
Bazel took a few steps back and leaned against a nearby tree trunk, blinking at Zefa a few times.
"Teach? You mean elephant dancing?"
Zefa was taken aback at first, then grabbed a stone and threw it at Bazel.
"You really do never mention the good things, only the bad!"
"You clearly taught yourself that dance without a teacher, don't try to pin it on me!"
After their playful banter, their expressions instantly returned to seriousness.
"You think you can end the era of pirates?"
After a moment's thought, Bazell nodded.
"Yes, based on our current hand, it's at most 98%."
Zephyr glared at Bazel: "Speak properly, or you'll force me to beat you up at this moment."
"Okay, okay, you really can't even take a joke."
After shrugging and smiling, Bazel said helplessly, "I'm 50% sure. Anyway, it's either success or failure, so being sure or not doesn't matter."
"I intend to become the King of Pirates, then destroy the order of that world, slay the Serpent of Karma, and restore freedom to the world."
"The four seas and the Grand Line will merge into one, becoming the best ALLBLUE!"
And I will act as a hero, telling the world that the most precious treasure in the world is freedom!
By then, the profession of pirate will cease to exist, because everyone will no longer set sail for treasure, but for adventure and scenery.
"Uncle Zephyr, this is a huge gamble!"
Bazel put his hands in his pockets, a smile of excitement playing on his lips.
"This is the biggest Davy Back Fight ever!"
"Once I become the Pirate King, it will be time to make a bet with the World Government!"
"That was the last game, a game for freedom, life, and dignity!"
"If I lose, everything I own will belong to the World Government, including my life."
"If I win—"
Bazel let out a long breath and looked up at the sky. Sunlight filtered through the branches and leaves, gently falling on the man's face.
"Uncle Zephyr,"
"If I win~~"
She looked down at the man who was looking at her, and saw the innocent smile on his face.
Zefa didn't know what to say or what expression to make at that moment.
He had forgotten how long it had been since he'd seen the kid with such a carefree smile.
We and others —
Did they simply pass on all the burdens they themselves couldn't bear to this young man?
Those were things that neither he nor Garp could accomplish. Weren't they being too cruel?
To entrust such a heavy responsibility to a mere brat—
"If I win this DavyBackFight, Uncle Zephyr, you can come back to our old home in the South China Sea with me after you leave the Navy."
"I hope you can be my future child's teacher."
"Teach him how to treat the world with gentleness, and teach him how to become a strong adult."
Zefa lowered his head, not daring to meet Bazel's gaze again.
He stared at his calloused hands for a long time without saying a word.
"The game of the legendary pirate Davy Jones—"
"Then let's take a gamble together, Bazel."
Suddenly looking up, the middle-aged man's hesitation transformed into determination.
"If you survive, I'll resign and go to the South China Sea with you!"
"You're dead, so all agreements are null and void!"
Looking at the now-spirited Zephyr, Bazel smiled and nodded: "No problem, let's make a bet. Let's decide your future with the DavyBackFight!"
"Just you wait, old man."
"I'll definitely open a kindergarten in the South China Sea, and then make you the principal. Prepare to spend the rest of your life surrounded by the crying of little devils!"
Zephyr leaned against the tree trunk to get up, and Armament Haki slowly turned his upper body skin black.
"Kid, don't spout nonsense!"
"I am Black Arm Zephyr!"
boom--!
A shallow pit was created in the ground by the trampling.
Bazel looked at Zefa, who was throwing a punch at him, and his pupils reflected the middle-aged man's satisfied smile.
Clench your right fist, mimicking Zephyr's movements by wrapping it with Haki, and then swing your fist!
The world seemed to slow down at that moment.
The two men charged at each other.
The fist slowly approached the other person's smiling face.
"I should be the one saying that, uncle!"
The fist struck the opponent's face simultaneously, causing the body to lean back, only to spring back into place in the next instant.
boom! !
Foreheads collided, and the two glared at each other.
"Don't die, kid!"
"You are my last remaining family member!!!"
Zefa roared and threw a punch, knocking Bazel off balance while also taking a punch himself.
"What if you die in some obscure, unknown corner?!"
"Even if I die, I will not rest in peace!"
"If you don't want to be an unfilial descendant, then you'd better live a good life!"
Bazel's heavy punch landed on Zefa's side.
Whether it was sweat or tears, large, shimmering droplets of water flew toward the grass to the side.
"Hey, sir,"
"How come your fists are still so strong even though you're middle-aged? You're the kind of useless old man who should be living a good life."
"If you, old man, aren't around after I've done everything, I'll be incredibly lonely!"
"Who are you calling 'I'?!"
Zefa spat out a mouthful of bloody phlegm and grinned maliciously at Bazel.
"You brat, it seems I haven't taught you manners in a long time. You're becoming more and more like Garp!"
"Didn't I tell you not to learn from Garp?!"
A powerful right punch struck Bazeir in the abdomen.
Bazel bent over and vomited bile, and before he could retaliate, an uppercut came flying at him.
The nasal bone made a cracking sound.
As the pain struck, Bazel gritted his teeth and threw an uppercut with his left fist, using the upward motion of his body.
Zefa felt as if he had been struck hard in the chin, and he fell backward.
His left leg instinctively moved backward, stepping into the grass, gradually pulling his body back to its upright position as he was about to fall.
My vision had just cleared from blurry when suddenly...!
The fist, imbued with domineering power, struck again.
Bang--!!
This time, Zefa did not back down, but instead withstood the punch that was about to hit his face.
Raise your left hand and grasp Bazel's right wrist.
Then clench your right hand into a fist.
"Kid, you can't hold back in a fight between adults."
"Didn't I teach you? There's no going back in the adult world!"
One heavy punch after another landed on his face, and Bazel dared not let out the breath he was holding in his throat.
If you relax at this moment, you will definitely be defeated by this useless old man, Zephyr.
Then he made a good laugh at me.
He should be the one doing the mocking!
Armament Haki wrapped around his forehead.
Bazel moved his head and rammed his forehead into the enemy's fist.
The powerful impact shook his brain, and blood flowed from his nose, ears, and other organs.
He moved his left hand up and grasped Zefa's right wrist.
"It's my turn now, and this time neither of our hands can move."
"I'll treat you well, earth dragon!"
Zefa saw the earth surge behind Bazel, and a three-meter-tall earth giant appeared.
Its facial features are indistinct, but it has six arms.
"Hey, wait a minute, you little brat, you dare cheat—Pfft!!"
Bazel chuckled strangely.
"It'll be hard to explain going back uninjured, right? Let me give you a hand, uncle!"
"Earth Dragon, Ora Punch!"
Earth Dragon: (o) = 33 - 33 = 33 - 3 Euler Euler Euler!
Half a minute later, Zephyr, who had turned into a steamed bun monster, collapsed to the ground.
"I...I won't let you get away with this!"
"You unfilial disciple who betrays his master and ancestors—"
Using his molting ability to fully recover, Bazel took out a chocolate bar from the specially made inner pocket of his cloak to replenish his strength.
"So you're still too naive. I'm a pirate now."
"How can you believe that pirates would fight you fairly?"
Bazel: (●●) Chewing~
"How incredibly naive you are, Zephyr~sensie."
After mocking Zephyr from his superior position, Bazel used the remaining Serpent Spirits to summon several other elemental monsters.
They were ordered to destroy the surrounding environment, creating the illusion of a major war.
Zephyr didn't say anything, just lay quietly on the ground, with only the roar of elemental explosions in his ears.
"The waves of the Grand Line are truly terrifying; they've swept away this old wave so quickly~"
"Bazaar, tell this old man."
"If we were truly to have a winner, how confident are you that you could kill me?"
After finishing one chocolate bar, Bazel took out a second one and started chewing.
"Is this important to you?"
Having received no reply, Bazel wore a rather distressed expression.
"If I wanted to kill you, with my current strength—"
"I'm absolutely certain, your skills have declined too much, old man."
"You don't even have a chance to escape. After all, you're different from Garp. That brute's head is full of muscles and arrogance."
""
A brute?
Zefa suddenly burst into laughter.
"That's right, I'm neither a muscle-headed Garp nor a fox-headed Sengoku."
"Go for it, Bazel!"
"I will secretly help Borsalino; to the current Marine Headquarters, I am just a nobody."
.
"She's a semi-invisible character who can skip work without anyone caring."
"However, I still have to give you a piece of advice."
The frequency of the bombardment by the surrounding elemental monsters suddenly decreased.
"Warring States is just a distant relative of yours, right? If you've really made up your mind, you need to take good care of your hometown."
"Garp said Sengoku would be the next Fleet Admiral."
He worried that the Warring States would become like Kong, a stranger who only knew how to weigh everything in terms of interests.
"Judging from the current trend, his becoming a marshal may not be a good thing for you."
"He will definitely tighten his control over you, and may even require you to report the latest progress to headquarters every once in a while."
'
'
After listening quietly to Zefa's instructions, Bazel then controlled the elemental monsters to resume their previous destructive frequency.
"I've taken care of it. The Kingdom of Solvi has vanished, and my dear uncle can't find it."
"Even if we found it, it wouldn't matter. If I wanted, I could even move it into the doldrums."
Zephyr nodded: "You know what you're doing, and don't blame Sengoku for many things."
"He was not in control of his own destiny to reach that position."
"So many people in the Navy are still waiting for him to feed them. As a bridge between the World Government and the Navy, many of Sengoku's decisions are no longer what he originally intended."
"—I know, I won't blame him."
He tossed the chocolate bar wrapper into the nearby fire and turned toward the diverging path of flames.
"I'm leaving. Remember to take good care of yourself, you useless old man."
"You wretched brat!"
Only after the man's presence disappeared did Zefa slowly get up.
He grimaced as he massaged his body.
"You really don't hold back, but this should ease some of your resentment, right?"
"Bazaar, I regret every single day that I didn't listen to you back then—"
"Otherwise, my son would definitely become an outstanding marine."
"He might even see you as an older brother he admires—"
Ugh!
Without picking up the cloak that had fallen to the side, Zephyr staggered toward the direction of Devil Town.
His broad back was slightly hunched, and his already dejected figure looked even older at this moment.
Outside Devil Town—
Loki, covered in frostbite, bent over, panting.
Not far away lay a young man with an afro, his fate unknown.
"This guy's really tough. Are all Logia-type Devil Fruits this terrifying?"
Loki rubbed off the frostbitten flesh on his body, wincing in pain and muttering the swear words of Elbaf.
"Loki, is that navy officer dead?"
Loki looked at the burly man who walked out of the town.
"He's not dead, but he's almost dead. His Logia-type Ice-Ice Fruit is too terrifying. I dare not show any mercy."
Bear's eyes gleamed; he and Loki both knew Bazel's true identity and what he wanted to do.
The only difference is that he wants to witness the future.
Loki, on the other hand, didn't care; he only cared about being able to continue playing with Bazel.
As for whether Bazel is a Navy spy or a pirate—
For Loki, maintaining his hammer was far more important than such a thing.
Regardless of the man's identity, Loki only cared about Bazel, just as he cared about Rocks when he wanted to join the Rocks Pirates.
He walked over to Loki, took off his glove, and gently placed it on Loki's thigh.
"Heal~"
A giant pink bear paw bubble slowly floated out of Loki's body.
"Oh~~!! I feel so much more relaxed!"
Loki stopped the bear from reaching out to receive his wounds, and just as he was about to say something, a bolt of lightning suddenly struck from the sky.
"Hahaha, this old man—Zzzzzzz!!"
bang~
Garp, who had fallen to the ground, looked completely bewildered.
"Didn't I eat the Rumble-Rumble Fruit? Why am I injured from the fall?"
Loki pulled the bear backward, his mouth twitching.
"Some idiot is coming. Let's back off quickly. I don't want my body to be invaded by stupid cells."
The spot where Garp landed was exactly where the bear popped out its injury bubble.
After landing, Garp transformed from his elemental form into his physical body and happened to be standing inside the bubble.
"He is—"
Only then did Xiong get a clear look at the bewildered-looking navy man's features.
"It's the Navy hero Garp!!"
"Loki!"
"Ah, ah! I know, another fight is going to happen, right?"
Garp glanced at the giant, putting his unexpected injury out of his mind.
"I rushed over as fast as I could after receiving the distress call, but I was still a step too late."
"Where's Zephyr?"
Loki pointed at himself, looking utterly bewildered: "You're asking me?! I'm a pirate, you idiot!"
Garp suddenly realized, clenching his left fist and tapping it against his right palm: "That's right, you're a pirate!"
Suddenly, a light, the kind of light only found in lightning, surged from Garp's body.
"As a member of the Navy, it is my duty to capture pirates—"
yah~
A deep, dark light suddenly appeared beside Loki's face, the lightning solidifying to reveal most of Garp's body.
"Kid, this is the iron fist of love!"
Just as Loki was about to unleash a punch imbued with domineering power, his massive figure suddenly vanished.
Garp was slightly taken aback, then vanished into his elemental form once more.
The moment the lightning dissipated, Loki, who reappeared behind Garp, stepped out of the high-pressure bubble.
The sledgehammer he swung missed its target.
In the sky, Garp looked at the bear who had taken off his gloves.
"It's your ability, right? The special ability that sent him away just now."
"I am a Paw-Paw Man who ate the Paramecia-type Paw-Paw Fruit."
The bear raised its paw, showing Karp the thick pads of its palm.
"Loki, this time we have to fight together. Garp is not a man we can take on alone!"
"No, Big Brother is here too. This time it's three of us against one!"
Loki suddenly looked towards the distant forest, where a figure exuding an aura of dominance slowly emerged from the trees.
"Naval hero Garp~~Kawaii~"
As he walked, Bazel quickly activated the third level of the Sunset Martial Body.
Squinting at the familiar faces he once knew, Garp suppressed the urge to greet them.
If outsiders were to see him laughing and joking with the second-in-command of the Beasts, arm in arm, the outcome would either be that Bazel's undercover identity would be exposed.
Or perhaps the Five Elders doubt his stance.
Then find a reason to continue cutting back on the navy's military spending.
Neither of these outcomes was what he wanted to see.
Bazel glanced at Loki and the bear, and after confirming that his two companions were in relatively good condition, he suddenly revealed a wicked smile.
"Now you have two choices, Karp."
"The first is a group fight, the second is a one-on-one fight."
