"So after meeting you Takenaka Admiral, I'm sure you are a good person!"
New World, Marine G-1 Base.
As Yixiao's words fell, Takenaka Kaguya couldn't help laughing!
He is not a good person. Although he has rescued many civilians over the years, he is not a good person in a world that is fundamentally rotten.
"Okay, no matter what, it is a lucky thing for the Navy that you can take the initiative to join the Navy.
Welcome again to join the navy!" Takenaka Kaguya waved his hand and said while extending his hand towards Yixiao.
Yixiao quickly reached out and held Takenaka Kaguya's right hand, with a smile on his face.
After that, Bullet went down to settle down with a smile. Takenaka Kaguya was just about to go for daily exercise when he saw adjutant Kaiser knocking on the door again and coming in.
"What's the matter again?" Takenaka Kaguya asked.
"Takenaka Admiral, Warship of Zephyr Admiral have arrived at the port!" Kaiser saluted respectfully.
"Zephyr Admiral? Why is he here?"
Takenaka Kaguya was stunned for a moment, then stood up and walked out with Kaiser.
Not long after, G1 Base port.
As soon as Zephyr saw Takenaka Kaguya, he immediately greeted him enthusiastically and said, "Hahaha, Takenaka Admiral, long time no see, I feel like your strength has improved again!"
"Hahaha, Zephyr Admiral is just kidding, this time..."
Takenaka Kaguya was also laughing. Before he finished speaking, he saw three guys over three meters tall laughing behind Zephyr.
"They are the three monsters Zephyr Admiral mentioned in Den Den Mushi before, right?" Takenaka Kaguya said again.
"Not bad."
Zephyr smiled and nodded, and then the three of them waved to them to come over.
After a while, Zephyr introduced Takenaka Kaguya with a smile, "This is Sakazuki, Logia Magma Devil Fruit User.
This is Borsalino, Logia and Devil Fruit User.
Finally, these are Kuzan, Logia and Devil Fruit User. The three of them are the best students in the first and second classes of Marine Elite Training Camp."
As soon as he finished speaking, before Takenaka Kaguya could say anything, Sakazuki and three other people saluted and said, "Marine Headquarters Rear Admiral, Sakazuki/Borsalino/Kuzan, I've seen Xuan Long Admiral!"
Akainu, Kizaru, Aokiji, although Takenaka Kaguya saw them for the first time in this world, he was very familiar with them before traveling through time.
After looking the three of them up and down, Takenaka Kaguya nodded and said, "He is indeed the best junior in the navy, and his aura is no weaker than the average Headquarters Vice Admiral.
However, you are still young and there is still a lot to learn. I hope you will not forget your original intention and always keep the justice in your heart!"
"Yes, always remember the teachings of Xuan Long Admiral!" the three of them said respectfully in unison.
Even though Sakazuki felt a little uncomfortable about Takenaka Kaguya's previous confrontation with Sengoku, but standing in front of the strongest Admiral in the navy, he found that he did not dare to be disrespectful at all.
On the side, Kizaru Borsalino, who was used to being undisciplined, also put away his usual style at this moment.
As for Kuzan, her eyes are already full of little stars after meeting her idol.
After taking in the expressions of the three people, Takenaka Kaguya turned to look at Zephyr and asked, "Zephyr Admiral, we have come all the way, let's go and rest first.
After you have rested, let's have a good drink and chat!"
"Hahaha, okay, since G1 Base is here, then I will listen to you!" Zephyr laughed and immediately nodded in agreement.
Later, Takenaka Kaguya personally took Zephyr and his party back to the base. Kaiser also quickly arranged a room for several people to rest and a banquet.
Although G1 Base has only been established for a few years and has never received much financial support from Marine Headquarters in the past few years, the money in G1 Base's warehouse is probably more than that of Marine Headquarters Marineford.
After all, every time Takenaka Kaguya led a team out to capture Haiwei, they basically came back with loads of gold and silver treasures.
It can be said that Marine Headquarters has it, G1 Marine Base has it, Marine Headquarters does not have it, and G1 Marine Base also has it.
In addition, New World is the sea area with the richest natural resources in Grand Line. Therefore, G1 Base has become extremely rich these years.
In the evening, looking at the extremely sumptuous dinner, Zephyr and Future Navy Three Admirals are both guys who have seen the world, and they were also surprised by Marine G-1 Base's dinner.
Just kidding, when will the Navy, which can spend every penny, be able to arrange a sumptuous dinner?
"Come, let's raise a toast together and welcome everyone."
At the main seat, Takenaka Kaguya raised his glass and said with a smile.
"Regards Xuan Long Admiral!" Zephyr was the first to respond.
Later, Bullet, Crocodile and Yixiao who just joined today also laughed and echoed, "Respect the boss/Xuan Long Admiral!"
Seeing the atmosphere like this, Future Navy Three Admirals immediately stopped worrying, stood up, raised his glass and said, "Here's to Xuan Long Admiral!"
After finishing a glass of wine, Takenaka Kaguya introduced Zephyr to Crocodile and Yixiao: "Crocodile, Yixiao, this is Admiral Zephyr known as Black Arm in our navy!"
"Zephyr Admiral, this is Crocodile, and this is Yixiao." Takenaka Kaguya introduced to Zephyr.
"Yixiao/Crocodile, I have met Zephyr Admiral!" Crocodile and Yixiao immediately stood up and greeted Zephyr.
This is, Zephyr nodded at Yixiao, and then frowned slightly when looking at Crocodile.
The name Crocodile is registered with Marine Headquarters. Logia Devil Fruit User is a pirate with unlimited potential. Although Zephyr has been relegated to the second line, I have heard of this name.
I just didn't expect that Takenaka Kaguya actually took him under his command without saying hello to Marine Headquarters.
Thinking of this, Zephyr glanced at Takenaka Kaguya, and the angry scene of Sengoku a few days ago appeared in his mind, and he was not ready to mention this matter.
"Hahaha, Takenaka Admiral really has a lot of talents under his command. In addition to Douglas Bullet who is comparable in strength to Marine Admiral, now we have added these two very capable subordinates.
Maybe in a few years, G1 Base's overall strength will surpass Marine Headquarters!" Zephyr turned to look at Takenaka Kaguya and laughed.
What he said was actually meant to be a test. The relationship between Takenaka Kaguya and Sengoku has become worse and worse in recent years. Unless necessary, Takenaka Kaguya will not return to Marine Headquarters.
Even if you go back once, it will basically be a simple rest and you will set sail immediately.
Therefore, Zephyr wants to know if Takenaka Kaguya has any plans to set up another business.
Takenaka Kaguya pretended not to understand the meaning of Zephyr's words, but smiled and waved his hands and said, "Zephyr Admiral is joking. Although G1 Base's overall strength is good, it is still much worse than the main team.
If Zephyr Admiral you are willing to come to G1 Base to help train a group of outstanding naval officers, maybe one day you can surpass this headquarters."
"Hahaha, forget it. If you stay at Marineford, you can still drink with some old comrades from time to time. If you really come here, except during training, I will be bored to death." Zephyr made a haha and refused directly.
Takenaka Kaguya didn't care about this, he just raised his wine glass and had a drink with Zephyr.
Just when Takenaka Kaguya and Zephyr drank the wine, they saw Sakazuki stand up, looked at Takenaka Kaguya solemnly and said, "Xuan Long Admiral, I just heard from Zephyr Admiral that your subordinate Bullet Vice Admiral already has strength comparable to Marine Admiral.
Since my subordinate ate Magu Magu no Mi, he has almost no opponents among Marine Headquarters Vice Admiral except Vice Admiral Garp.
I don't know, does Xuan Long Admiral allow me to have a fight with Bullet Vice Admiral?"
"Hahaha, Sakazuki Rear Admiral, since you have this interest, it's natural." Hearing this, Takenaka Kaguya laughed instantly.
Then, he pointed at Bullet and Yixiao, looked at Sakazuki and continued, "Sakazuki Rear Admiral, Bullet Vice Admiral, or Yixiao Commodore. There is not much difference in strength between the two of them. You can choose any one of them as your opponent.
Just in time, Zephyr Admiral told me this afternoon that Sengoku sent you three outstanding Rear Admiral to come G1 Base to follow my arrangements, and I also want to know how strong you are!"
"It's what I asked for!" Sakazuki nodded calmly in response.
Then, just as his eyes swept between Bullet and Yixiao, Kuzan stood up and said, "Xuan Long Admiral Since you want to know our strength, how about adding me?"
"Okay!"
"I choose to smile Commodore!" Kuzan said quickly.
"Then my opponent is Bullet Vice Admiral!" Sakazuki also said immediately.
"Okay!"
Takenaka Kaguya said hello with a smile, then waved Kaiser to come closer and whispered a few instructions in Kaiser's ear. Kaiser agreed respectfully and walked out quickly.
Ten minutes later, Kaiser came back and said respectfully to Takenaka Kaguya: "Takenaka Admiral, the venue has been arranged!"
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Kaiser."
Takenaka Kaguya nodded towards the adjutant Kaiser, then looked at everyone and said, "Everyone, come with me!"
After saying that, he took the lead and walked in front. Zephyr, Yixiao, Bullet, Crocodile and others quickly followed.
A few minutes later, Marine G-1 Base's largest training ground.
It is as big as four or five football fields, and there are stands around it, which is very similar to the architectural style of a duel field.
"Which of you comes first?"
Takenaka Kaguya looked at Sakazuki and Kuzan and asked.
"I'll do it!"
Before Sakazuki could speak, Kuzan said quickly, then jumped directly to the center of the training ground!
"Haha, young people are a little impatient!"
Seeing how eager Kuzan was, Zephyr couldn't help but smile and said.
"Hehehe, isn't this good?
Back then, because Magu Magu no Mi and Hie Hie no Mi, these two Devil Fruit and Sengoku were so shameless that they took them from me even if they regretted it.
Talking about the future of the navy, now that Sakazuki Rear Admiral and Kuzan Rear Admiral are here, I also want to see how amazing the capabilities of these two Logia Devil Fruit are!" Takenaka Kaguya laughed.
With that said, he looked at Yixiao and said warmly, "Yixiao, go play with Kuzan Rear Admiral, be careful not to be too harsh!"
"Xuan Long Admiral Don't worry, Kuzan Rear Admiral won't be hurt." He smiled and saluted respectfully, then activated his fruit power, and then the whole person floated up and headed towards the training ground below.
Here, Kuzan heard what Takenaka Kaguya just said. Although he didn't know how strong Yixiao was, he knew from the aura displayed by Yixiao that he was not necessarily his opponent.
"Yixiao Commodore, be careful!"
Kuzan said something and then launched the attack first.
Ice Spear!
I saw that Kuzan used Hie Hie no Mi's ability from the beginning, quickly condensed ice spears around him, and then shot away with a smile.
The speed of Ice Spear is very fast, but for a smile that cannot see anything, but has cultivated Observation Haki to a very powerful smile, this speed is not fatal.
Here, facing the attack from Kuzan, Yixiao just tilted his head left and right to avoid the attack.
However, Kuzan's combat literacy is not low, and he can also Observation Haki. When he noticed that Yixiao had dodged his attack, he activated Hie Hie no Mi's ability again, condensing an ice blade in his hand.
Immediately afterwards, the moment Yixiao dodged Ice Spear, he performed Six Powers at his feet - Shao instantly moved in front of Yixiao, and the ice knife in his hand also slashed towards Yixiao's neck without mercy.
However, just when Kuzan was still surprised that he couldn't avoid smiling, suddenly, a force of gravity directly pressed him to the ground on one knee.
It was as if half of his body was being pressed down by a hill, making Kuzan's movements much slower.
"It turns out it's not that you can't hide, but that you don't need to hide." Kuzan thought quickly in his mind.
"Whoosh!"
At this time, a cold light flashed from Kuzan's neck, and then everyone saw Kuzan's head fly out.
"Crack!"
The moment his head hit the ground, it turned into Hanbing and smashed into pieces on the ground.
"Haha, the response is very fast, Kuzan Rear Admiral!"
He chuckled, looking ahead, Kuzan, who had already avoided the knife through Logia Devil Fruit elementalization, laughed.
"Yixiao Commodore is really cruel. If I hadn't reacted quickly just now, my head would have moved!" Kuzan curled his lips and said helplessly.
Although it was just a simple exchange, he had already tested the depth of his smile.
With the powerful Observation Haki, the well-developed Devil Fruit, and the swordsmanship comparable to Great Swordsman, it would probably be difficult for him to win.
After knowing it in his mind, Kuzan stopped holding back. The terrifying cold air quickly covered half of his body, and then centered on himself, Hanbing continued to spread towards the surrounding areas.
In the stands, Takenaka Kaguya nodded, Kuzan was preparing to enlarge his move.
It's a pity that in front of Yixiao, Kuzan, whose strength has not yet reached its peak, is a bit unsatisfied.
No, before Kuzan could react, Yixiao had already charged up and whispered, "Gravity Blade·Tiger!"
Yixiao accumulated gravity on the knife and slashed it away. At the same time, he released a huge lateral gravity towards the path of the knife, crushing and destroying everything in front of him.
This move is very unpredictable. Even if the object is not damaged, it will be knocked away by the huge wind pressure generated by its gravity.
This knife was so swift and violent that Kuzan was struck before he could even react, and his body was cut into several sections.
Fortunately, Yixiao remembered Takenaka Kaguya's instructions and did not use Armament Haki. Otherwise, even if this knife could not kill Kuzan, it would still seriously injure him.
"Accepted, Kuzan Rear Admiral!"
