What a Little Monster!
"Kid, are you implying that I'm too old and useless?!" Zephyr said in a deep voice.
Haku said nonchalantly, "How could that be! Teacher, you're such a joker!"
Zephyr continued, "Kid, if you want me to go to your so-called base, that's not impossible!"
"The condition is that you can catch that person; only then will I willingly go with you!"
Haku thought for a moment and realized that the other person was probably referring to Whitebeard Jr.., who was created using Whitebeard's Lineage Factor!
The training ship led by Zephyr was attacked by the enemy, resulting in the deaths of all his beloved students except for Ain and Binz, and severe injuries to his right arm!
Haku said, "Actually, I've been searching for him. It's just that his accomplice, Baginagom Stussy, is incredibly good at hiding, making it much more difficult for my men to find him!"
"But don't worry, teacher, I'll catch them and let you handle it. So, you should come with me to the G5 Base!"
Zephyr's gaze softened considerably as he looked at Haku. He said, "Thank you for your kindness, Haku! But I still don't want to go to G5 with you. I've spent most of my life here, and if I could, I wouldn't want to leave."
Haku sighed, "Teacher, I'm afraid you might do something foolish when you're disappointed in the World Government or even the Navy. You're not the same person you used to be; your strength is much weaker, and you don't have anyone you can rely on."
Upon hearing this, Zephyr's eyes flickered slightly, and then he said in a deep voice, "Hmph, do you think I'm the kind of person who would give up easily? Although I'm old, I'm not at the point where you need to worry about me."
Haku quickly explained, "Teacher, that's not what I meant."
Zephyr said, "You little brat, if you want me to follow you, then show me your strength. Let me see!"
Looking at the somewhat stubborn Zephyr, Haku shook her head and said, "What a nuisance!"
After speaking, Haku appeared beside Zephyr and pressed down with one hand, trying to remove the shredder containing the Seastone!
"Good lad! Just like Garp, you resort to violence without hesitation! You don't really think I'm too old to use my full strength, do you?" Zephyr said to Haku, who suddenly attacked.
The shredder in his hand started spinning at high speed to block Haku's downward palm!
An invisible shockwave spread in all directions, and Haku easily crushed the crusher loaded with Seastone!
Bang!
With a loud crash, Haku's body flew dozens of meters backward, smashing into many things before finally coming to a stop!
Zephyr, having retracted his left fist, glanced at his damaged mechanical arm.
He said to Haku, "You brat, don't you know this thing is expensive! Are you planning to make up for it?"
Haku stood up from the collapsed wall and said, "This thing was useless anyway, so what if it's broken?"
After saying that, he acted as if nothing had happened, dusted himself off, and returned to his original position.
"What a little monster!" Zephyr said, as if making a sarcastic remark.
He knew best how much force he had used to hit Haku.
Anyone else would have been lying on the ground, unable to get up, but Haku not only seemed completely unharmed after taking that punch, she even appeared to be able to move!
This forced him to re-evaluate Haku!
"Teacher!"
Ain and Shuzo stood protectively in front of Zephyr; if the fight continued, they would both attack Haku simultaneously!
Zephyr patted his two students, signaling them to move aside and not to worry!
Zephyr said to Haku, "Kid, I've granted your request. I can go to G5 Base with you, but you can't interfere with what I do there!"
"Also, you'll be in charge of resolving the issues between Sengoku and the World Government!"
Haku grinned and said, "No problem!"
Not long after, Haku left the Marine training base!
"Teacher! Are we really going to go to the G5 Base with him?" Ain couldn't help but ask after Haku left.
Both Shuzo and Zephyr looked at each other, wanting to hear why he had agreed.
Zephyr glanced at his right mechanical arm and said, "Didn't you guys realize? This brat's determined to get me to his base!"
"What does it matter? As long as you refuse, teacher, do you think they would really dare to take you away from Marineford?" Shuzo said.
Zephyr said, "Ever since that kid unleashed his Bankai back then, he's become a bit lawless. Do you really think he doesn't have the ability to take me away?"
After saying that, he pinched his mechanical arm with his left hand, much to the astonishment of Ain and Shuzo.
Zephyr's mechanical arm instantly disintegrated, and the Seastone inside developed significant cracks!
"This?" Ain asked, looking at Zephyr.
Zephyr nodded and said, "I don't know how this kid cultivated; his strength has become much more monstrous than before!"
Both Ain and Shuzo considered Haku to be a monster, and the indestructible Seastone served as good proof of this!
Looking at his damaged robotic arm, Zephyr couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness.
Meanwhile, Haku, having dealt with Zephyr, began her journey towards Sengoku's office!
Having quietly stolen Zephyr away, Haku would eventually have to inform Sengoku.
Soon, Haku didn't even bother to knock on the door. He simply pushed open Sengoku's office door and walked straight in.
By this time, there were already quite a few people in the Sengoku period.
Aokiji still looked like he hadn't woken up yet, while Akainu, sitting next to him, saw that it was Haku who came in.
That already cold face became even colder!
Vice Admiral Tsuru sat alone on a separate sofa, silently sipping her tea.
"Hey! Everyone else is here except for Borsalino," Haku greeted.
Meanwhile, Haku took a look around. He didn't see Garp there, and he knew that Garp had already dealt with Sengoku and was probably already at the Sea!
Sengoku glared at Haku, attributing her rude behavior directly to Garp Haku, Garp also liked to enter without knocking.
Vice Admiral Tsuru put down her teacup and smiled at Haku, saying, "Oh, it's Haku. How are you doing at G5?"
Haku boasted, "Auntie He, you have no idea how rotten G5 is over there! If I hadn't intervened, the Navy's reputation would have been utterly ruined by those scumbags!"
