The Youngest Vice Admiral in Marine History!

Marine Headquarters, Fleet Admiral's Office.

When Victoria told Sengoku the news that Feng Lei had defeated Doflamingo with a single punch, the latter couldn't help but facepalm.

The Five Elders were rejected.

He is now publicly beating up Shichibukai.

Those were the Whitebeard Pirates.

With each additional powerful combatant, the navy can reduce casualties.

"Truly worthy of being master and disciple!"

Sengoku glanced to the side and saw Garp sitting on the sofa, legs crossed, eating senbei.

"Ha ha!"

"Truly worthy of being my disciple!"

Garp didn't care at all.

"Those so-called Shichibukai are all so arrogant. Feng Lei should give them a beating to put them in a better position!"

"Sengoku, you can't go back on your promise. That kid even summoned that difficult woman."

Sengoku nodded and said, "He does indeed have some skill!"

With Feng Lei's abilities, he is indeed more than qualified to serve as Vice Admiral.

Moreover, even the most difficult of the Shichibukai, the Empress, has been summoned.

Combined with their previous success in capturing the Straw Hat brat, that's enough to shut many people up.

The thought of Straw Hat brat gave Sengoku another headache.

Despite being guarded by Garp and Aokiji, they still fell for a diversionary tactic, allowing the Straw Hat brat to escape triumphantly.

Obviously.

This is Garp and Aokiji letting loose at sea!

"Victoria, issue the document appointing Feng Lei as Marine Headquarters Vice Admiral!"

Sengoku shook his head, trying to ignore this troublesome matter.

After all, he's Garp's grandson; they can't really arrest him and lock him up in Impel Down.

"Yes!"

Victoria took the documents and turned to leave.

Soon.

News of Feng Lei's formal appointment as Marine Headquarters Vice Admiral spread Marineford.

In an instant.

Countless people were shocked.

"Vice Admiral? So fast? He's only been a [Special Recruit] for less than two months!"

"That's Vice Admiral with real power! Although he's capable enough, it's... way too fast!"

"Although it happened in a short period of time, their achievements were undeniable: killing Charlotte Cracker, capturing the Straw Hat brat who were causing trouble at the World Government, and recently summoning Boa Hancock, one of the Shichibukai— each of these accomplishments is beyond the capabilities of ordinary people!"

"As expected of Vice Admiral Garp's disciple, his strength and ability are truly awe-inspiring!"

"I remember he was only a teenager, right?"

"Hiss~"

"Marine Headquarters Vice Admiral in his teens—that's unprecedented in the entire history of the navy!"

Similar discussions continue within the Navy.

Especially now, in order to deal with the Whitebeard Pirates, naval elites from all over the world have gathered in Marineford.

Hearing about a Marine Headquarters Vice Admiral teens is truly astonishing and deeply shocking!

But.

After learning about Feng Lei's strength and various achievements, those who were initially somewhat unconvinced were instantly convinced.

At the same time, because Feng Lei stood up for the Navy and knocked out the Shichibukai Doflamingo with one punch, he also developed great respect for Feng Lei.

Many naval elites gathered from all corners of the world wanted to catch a glimpse of the youngest Vice Admiral in naval history.

New recruit camp.

After two months of arduous training, Koby and Helmeppo have undergone tremendous physical transformation.

Neither of them was short and timid anymore.

Especially Koby.

The changes are quite obvious.

He grew taller and taller, and his former timidity disappeared; he had actually grown into a handsome young man.

But.

When they heard that Feng Lei had become Marine Vice Admiral, their jaws dropped in astonishment.

"Vice Admiral? Feng Lei became Vice Admiral all of a sudden?"

"This is unbelievable!"

Koby's mouth dropped open.

He was secretly pleased with his change, but Feng Lei, who joined the navy on the same day, became Marine Headquarters Vice Admiral.

In an instant.

Koby's face was bitter.

His efforts seemed to have no effect whatsoever.

The gap between Feng Lei and him is widening!

"If you had his achievements and abilities, you could also be Vice Admiral!"

Helmeppo clicked his tongue in amazement.

After all, every single thing Feng Lei has accomplished is something that others could not achieve even with a lifetime of effort.

"Koby, give up. Feng Lei... he's not someone you can surpass no matter how hard you try!"

Helmeppo glanced at Koby, whose face showed a bitter expression, and offered some words of advice.

He knew.

His companion's goal had always been to catch up with Feng Lei.

Looking back now, it seems that their starting point was something they could never reach in their entire lives.

Koby clenched his fists.

"No, I won't give up."

"If doubling your efforts isn't enough, then do it tenfold, a hundredfold, or even two hundredfold!"

Marine Headquarters, Hospital.

In a hospital room, Doflamingo, with bandages wrapped around his chest, was reading a newspaper about internal naval personnel changes.

Doflamingo is a smart man.

Knowing he was no match for Feng Lei, he simply admitted defeat.

Therefore.

These past few days.

He stayed in the hospital and didn't go out.

"Um?"

Sudden.

He saw a prominent title on the homepage.

[Feng Lei, Special Recruit at the Marine Academy, has been officially appointed as Marine Headquarters Vice Admiral!]

"Are you kidding me!"

Doflamingo looked furious.

A guy who could kill him with a single punch was just a Vice Admiral?

Where will he put his pride?

Recalling Feng Lei's punch back then.

That kind of strength.

He's probably not far from becoming Marine Admiral!

Anyway.

Doflamingo has decided that he will stay away from Feng Lei from now on.

Never mess with that ruthless person!

At the same time.

On the other side.

As the reception area for the Shichibukai.

Outside a quaint, antique-style room, the navy was gathered in large numbers.

These sailors, one by one, looked like lecherous men, craning their necks to peer into the room.

This is the room where Empress Boa Hancock resides.

"Haa~"

"Feng Lei has become Marine Vice Admiral!"

Hancock cupped her face in her hands, her eyes filled with love as she stared at the report on the table about Feng Lei becoming Marine Headquarters Vice Admiral.

"What should I do? Congratulate him? Personally tell him my congratulations?"

"I'll still treat him to a meal! And if I cook it myself, what a wonderful feeling that would be..."

At this very moment.

Hancock completely retreated into her own world.

The thought of the two of them being alone together was unbearable.

Hancock's face turned bright red, and finally, unable to process what she was seeing, her eyes rolled back, and she collapsed to the ground.

Shortly after the news of Feng Lei's promotion to Marine Headquarters Vice Admiral was released.

An even more startling piece of news suddenly spread from the Marine Headquarters to the entire ocean.

[Fleet Admiral Sengoku has ordered the public execution of Whitebeard's Second Division Commander, Marineford Fire Fist Ace, at Marine Headquarters!]

With the news spreading throughout the world, countless seagulls carried this awe-inspiring message across the ocean.

One stone stirs up a thousand waves!

"The Navy is..."

"Are we going to war with Whitebeard of the Four Emperors?"
