Zephyr didn't react to the Momonga's reminder.
After two hours and dozens of phone calls, he had become somewhat less vigilant.
Unaware that he had been exposed, Zephyr continued, "I am now the Admiral and Chief Instructor of the Neo Marines. Momonga, would you like to come and help me build the Neo Marines?"
"There are no Celestial Dragons here, and none of that nonsense. With your abilities, you'll definitely be given an important position!"
Zephyr's voice echoed repeatedly in the conference room; the truth had become clear.
The Momonga was actually very tempted by Zephyr's invitation.
Master Zephyr is there, and many of his fellow disciples are also going there; there are no Celestial Dragons or anything like that yet.
He wants to go!
But seeing Sengoku's face, which was even darker than the bottom of a pot, the Momonga wisely said, "Teacher Zephyr, Fleet Admiral Sengoku has been incredibly kind to me, I cannot go!"
He emphasized the words "Fleet Admiral Sengoku Period," wanting to remind Zephyr once again.
But in his heart, he was thinking of playing along for now, and then seizing the opportunity to go to Dressrosa.
Upon hearing this, the Sengoku's expression softened somewhat.
He didn't interrupt the Transponder Snail's communication; he wanted to hear what Zephyr would say.
"Sengoku owes you a great debt? What nonsense!" Zephyr said disdainfully, "Just because he couldn't withstand the pressure and allowed Whitebeard Jr.. to become Shichibukai, he has let down the entire Navy!"
"Momonga, you are my prized disciple. Come and show your skills in the Neo Marines!"
Zephyr, having received no signal from the Momonga, danced on the minefield once more.
This time, several minutes passed, and Zephyr still hadn't heard a reply from the Momonga.
He couldn't help but wonder, "Should I agree or not? Give me a straight answer!"
Meanwhile, Luo Wen and Gion, who were standing beside him, noticed something was wrong; they seemed to have been exposed.
But it doesn't matter now that it's been exposed; the Momonga is the last disciple Zephyr can contact. The message has been delivered, and it doesn't matter if he's forbidden from contacting her afterward.
Sure enough, Transponder Snail Sengoku had completely broken down and could no longer hold back. "Zephyr, you old bastard, I'll beat the shit out of you, or you'll consider yourself clean!"
He trusted Zephyr so much, thinking it was someone else's doing.
Unexpectedly, not only did Zephyr do it, but he also kept talking bad about him.
He couldn't even imagine how many times Zephyr had cursed at him!
Have I been exposed?
Zephyr shuddered.
It's natural to feel guilty when you're caught talking badly about someone behind their back.
However, he immediately straightened up.
My ass, he's telling the truth!
Moreover, he couldn't tolerate the idea that the Sengoku period would make him shit his pants.
"Sengoku, if you've got the guts, come to Dressrosa and let's see who beats the crap out of whom!" Zephyr said confidently, then added, "And since Momonga isn't coming, you'd better treat him well, or I'll take him away next time!"
With his peak strength restored, why would he fear an old man Sengoku?
The Momonga didn't know if he was really not coming or not. If he really wasn't coming, they couldn't let him suffer any injustice in the Navy.
"Aaaaaah!"
The Sengoku was so angry it was almost insane.
This guy lured away so many high-ranking officers in his navy, even the people attending meetings.
Threatening him to his face is simply intolerable.
"Old man Zephyr, you just wait!"
Sengoku uttered a harsh remark and crushed the Transponder Snail.
On the other side, the Momonga felt both embarrassed and touched.
He hadn't expected that Professor Zephyr would be so considerate of him.
With Teacher Zephyr's words, whether he stays or leaves, he will have a good outcome.
Is it the Neo Marines of Dressrosa?
He's definitely going!
The Momonga secretly vowed to stand on the same side as Professor Zephyr.
Sengoku, still seething with anger, had no idea what the Momonga was thinking. If he had known, the Buddha Sengoku would probably have turned into the Demon-like Sengoku.
