The next day in the afternoon.

At Marineford port, all officers of Marine Headquarters headed by Akira were present.

Zephyr, Sengoku and Garp, who was still wearing a bandage, stood side by side on the right side of Akira, while Sakazuki, Kuzan and Admiral stood on the left side of Akira.

The Vice Admirals headed by Gion did not stand behind Akira, but stood neatly opposite Akira, all looking up to the warships slowly sailing into the port.

The familiar position exudes a suffocating sense of oppression.

On the high wall on the side of the port, Mihawk, who was carrying Supreme Grade Sword, stood condescendingly, squinting his eyes as he stared at the powerful naval lineup below, led by Akira, which had undergone earth-shaking changes in all aspects.

Not far from him, Hancock wearing a cape with a floral pattern and Gunko wearing a cape of Knights of God and a newsboy hat stood on either side.

Under everyone's gaze, the warship slowly sailed into the port and docked.

On the deck of the warship, a fat and ugly man with a height of nearly seven meters, a pair of white beards that curved upward in the shape of a crescent moon, and a fat body was tied up.

Edward Weevil!

The pirate who attacked the training ship three years ago was indoctrinated by his mother since he was a child that he was the son of Edward Newgate who ruled New World and had the title World's Strongest Man, so he has always called himself Whitebeard Jr..

Although Edward Newgate has neither admitted nor denied it so far, Edward Weevil has the strange power of Edward Newgate when he was young. Even if his intelligence is worrying, there is no doubt about his strong strength.

It was precisely because of its powerful strength that it single-handedly attacked the naval training ship Zephyr, the former Marine Headquarters Admiral, three years ago and won a great victory.

However, his glory ended here.

He was tied up on his knees, his head hanging weakly, and his right arm was cut off neatly. Even though a day had passed, blood was still flowing from the wound.

Next to Weevil, an ugly old woman with wrinkled face, short stature and wearing a leopard-print coat was also tied up. The sunglasses she originally wore were now hanging around her neck, and her body was stained with coagulated blood.

miss·Bakin.

Real name Bajin Gom·Stussy, former member of Rocks Pirates, claims to be the lover of Edward Newgate.

Zephyr, who was standing on the right side of Akira and stood side by side with Sengoku Garp, saw the figure of Weevil. The emotions that had been suppressed in his heart for three years could no longer be suppressed. While his fists were clenched silently, his body was shaking slightly uncontrollably.

The fact that the internship ship was attacked and only two students, Ain and Binz, were left on the entire ship was like a big mountain weighing on his heart, causing him to suffer from the guilt and hatred towards the students that constantly hit his brain for three years.

If it weren't for the student Akira who always stayed by his side to keep him hopeful about the navy, he would have left the headquarters long ago to personally find and avenge the murderer who attacked the training ship!

Of course, Akira also deserves his high hopes and trust over the years. The first thing the new officer did when he took office was to capture the pirates who attacked the trainee ship back then, and now they were brought to him!

When he saw Ain and Binz appearing on the deck, standing behind Borsalino, he couldn't hold it back any longer, as if a heavy burden had been lifted, and he burst into tears of relief.

Seeing Zephyr's reaction, Sengoku sighed secretly in his heart. After a while, he stopped talking and silently raised his hand and patted Zephyr on the shoulder.

Just then.

Ain and Binz jumped off the warship first, Borsalino, and quickly came to Akira and raised their hands to salute. "Lord Marshal!"

Akira nodded and said softly, "Thank you for your hard work."

With these three simple words, Ain and Binz could no longer control their emotions, and their eyes turned red instantly.

As the only two surviving interns on the intern ship, they have also suffered in the past three years. They wake up from their sleep almost every once in a while, because the images of the intern ship being attacked not only did not become blurred with the passage of time, but became clearer each time.

During this period, they once went to Sengoku with teacher Zephyr behind their backs, hoping that former Marshal Sengoku would allow them to lead a warship to go to sea to find the murderer, but every time Sengoku was worried that they would also encounter something unexpected and refused, and promised them that the murderer would be captured and brought to justice.

But three years have passed, and no news about the murderer has been revealed. Marine Headquarters officers at all levels are also running around because of the increasing number of pirates, and they have no time to continue to pursue the murderer's traces.

If it hadn't been for Akira launching a mutiny and ascending to Marshal's position, they were almost certain that Marine Headquarters would soon forget about this incident, and it might even happen that just like Akira saw in the future, the pirate who attacked the trainee ship would become one of Shichibukai in the future.

Fortunately, there is Akira!

Looking at the gentle young Marshal in front of him at this moment, Ain, with red eyes and choked with sobs, shook his head fiercely, "It's not hard."

Akira took a step forward, his gentle voice as before, "Go back and rest and recuperate. You and Binz will be responsible for their public execution tomorrow."

Hearing this, Ain quickly straightened his body, raised his hands to salute again together with Binz, and shouted in unison, "Loyalty!"

After Ain and Binz retreated, the tenderness on Akira's face disappeared in an instant. What was replaced was the decisiveness of Marshal's rebellion, which forced Holy Land to compromise.

As soon as his figure flashed, Akira with a murderous aura stood in front of Weevil and Bakin.

Feeling the murderous aura coming towards his face, Bakin, who was tied up with his head hanging down, suddenly raised his head and said with a look of fear on his face, "Who are you?"

Akira looked down at Bakin and said solemnly, "Marine Headquarters Marshal, Akira!"

"Huh?"

Bakin was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at the navy Headquarters Officer standing at the port.

When she saw Sengoku, Garp and Zephyr, she suddenly grinned sinisterly, ignored Akira's existence and struggled to stand up, "Sengoku, are there no people in your navy? You actually let a young boy be your successor!"

"I advise you to be wise and release our mother and son immediately."

"Otherwise, Edward Newgate will definitely lead his pirate group to come to Marineford."

"Did you see this guy next to me? He looks familiar!"

"Yes, he is Edward Newgate's biological son! If Newgate knows that you have captured his precious son, you should know what will happen!"

"It's not your style to start a war over a ship of trainee officers and lead to more deaths. Sengoku..."

Bang--

Before Bakin could finish speaking, a dull sound suddenly sounded.

Immediately afterwards, Bakin flew out completely, hit the guardrail of the warship heavily, and then bounced to the ground.

At the same time, Akira followed Bakin like a shadow, and stepped on him with a quick step.

"Bakin old woman, you really think I don't exist!"

Akira, who stepped on Bakin's head, leaned down slightly, his murderous intent undisguised.

"No matter who he is, attacking the training ship and killing the navy is a capital crime!"

"Even if he is the son of God, I will still kill him!"
