"Let me go if you dare."

Her face flushed red, and her eyes were filled with anger. She had underestimated the old man's strength; she had been defeated in less than ten moves.

This was a humiliation, followed by an unwillingness to admit defeat; she felt she hadn't yet unleashed her true power.

"It seems you don't understand the cruelty of the sea. Answer my question."

With a forceful pull, Yingqiao's face was filled with pain.

"Stop! We kindly saved you, and you repay kindness with enmity!"

Conis's face turned pale, and she glared angrily at Zephyr.

"I will not submit to you, you ungrateful old man! If you have the guts, kill me!"

She was very defiant, her eyes red with anger; there was no way she would submit to her. She wasn't afraid at all.

"If you dare harm the princess, even if you flee to the ends of the earth, the king will not let you go, and everyone connected to you will be destroyed."

Seeing that Sakura refused to yield, Conis's heart leaped into her throat, fearing that Zephyr might strangle Sakura in a fit of anger, thus revealing Sakura's identity in her haste.

"Princess?"

Both Zephyr and Ain's expressions changed.

"Are you the princess of the kingdom?"

Squinting, Zephyr loosened his grip slightly.

"I will never change my name or surname. My name is Ye Sakura. If you have the guts, kill me. Anyway, you won't be going to hell to keep me company for long."

A dead pig isn't afraid of boiling water; gallbladders and such are simply not in Sakura's dictionary.

"Ye Sakura, is she really that guy's daughter? She looks familiar, she looks a lot like your mother."

Zephyr's eyes held a hint of nostalgia, then he looked at Conis and said in a deep voice, "Since you saved me, hand over all these weapons, and I'll spare your lives."

"Don't even think about it. A scholar can be killed but not humiliated. I'm always the one robbing others; you can't rob me."

Before Conis could even speak, Sakura exploded.

Zephyr's face stiffened. He stared at the puffed-up cherry blossom in his hand and said fiercely, "Don't think that just because you're Ye Chen's daughter I won't dare to kill you. Even if your father came, he would have to call me teacher."

"Bullshit! Not only are you ungrateful, but you also brag. You're so old, aren't you ashamed?"

She started cursing and swearing, as if she had changed the moment she left the country; she was no longer the sensible and gentle princess she once was.

"You," Zephyr felt a surge of anger rising in his chest, though he didn't understand why he was so angry.

"Damn it, is this how that bastard raised you?"

"Is it any of your business?"

"Your father is my student. I can educate him. It's none of your business."

"Keep bragging. You're so shameless at your age. My dad could beat you with one hand."

"Try calling him out, and see if I'm just bragging."

"I don't believe you. Go ahead and kill me if you dare."

Do you think I wouldn't dare?

"Then kill him!"

Do you think I wouldn't dare?

"Then kill him!"

An old man and a young man, somehow ended up fighting. Both were red-faced and glaring at each other, sparks flying between them.

Conis, Ain, and the others around them were all stunned.

"Damn it! If it weren't for your mother's sake, I would have taught you a lesson today."

After a full ten minutes of stalemate, Zephyr, exasperated, threw Sakura to the ground and strode towards the warship.

"Let's go."

"Teacher Zephyr"

After a slight pause, Ain and Binz gave Sakura a deep look before following behind Zephyr.

"If you're so capable, then don't leave. What do you mean by 'for my mother's sake'? Do you even know her?"

Sakura shouted loudly after being helped up by Conis.

Go back and ask your dad. I don't want to see you right now.

Fuming with rage, Zephyr made a vicious face.

"You chickened out! You got scared just from hearing my dad's name."

With her hands on her hips, Sakura displayed an expression of utter contempt, letting out a cold snort.

"Go, hurry up and go."

Zephyr clutched his heart and urged the warship on.

"Old man, didn't you want these weapons? Don't go!"

He snatched the machine gun from the general's hand and fired back and forth, but Zephyr had already disappeared by the ship's railing, out of sight, out of mind.

"Professor Zephyr, is that girl really God's daughter?"

On the giant ship, Ain hesitated for a moment before looking at Zephyr.

"It's almost certain, the child looks a lot like her mother."

With his anger gone, Zephyr sighed.

"It's unbelievable, how could God be so at ease letting his daughter go to sea alone? The country has quite a few enemies."

Binz stroked his chin thoughtfully, then looked at Zephyr and asked earnestly, "Come to think of it, God is still our senior brother!"

"Ye Chen is on the ship, although I don't know where he's hiding."

"What?"

Ain and Binz stared wide-eyed, stunned by Zephyr's words.

"God is on the ship? How is that possible?"

"Nothing is impossible. He was the most hardworking and obsessed student I ever taught, but his aura is somewhat different; times have truly changed. The one from back then has become one of the Four Emperors and has even established the most powerful nation."

Zephyr sighed, vaguely recalling his days in the Navy.

How long until we reach Apollo Island?

"One."

"Full speed ahead! Only one endpin left. Once this place is destroyed, the New World will cease to exist. I'll send all pirates to hell!"

His gaze was fierce, Zephyr clenched his fists tightly.

"Yes."

Meanwhile, aboard the Friendship, Conis breathed a sigh of relief when all the giant ships disappeared.

"Princess, you were too impulsive just now. What if that person had attacked you?"

Hearing Conis's words, Mansherry, Bepo, and the others nodded in agreement.

"Don't worry, that old man never intended to kill me from the beginning."

Sakura remained calm and unconcerned.

"But we can't be so impulsive. People can be wicked. We saved him, and instead of being grateful, he repays kindness with enmity."

"Okay, okay."

She wasn't listening at all, because Sakura was thinking about something else.

This old man's father was his student, and he even knew the mother. It seems he really was the teacher of the father in the legend.

"Captain, Captain"

"Huh? What?" Coming to her senses, Sakura looked puzzled when she saw everyone staring at her.

"Captain, Lily and I have both been changed."

With a sweet, childlike voice, Bepo stared with wide, innocent eyes, exuding charm and cuteness.

"Wow, Bepo was so cute back then." Sakura's eyes sparkled, as did Conis and Mansherry, because Bepo's destructive power was just too strong now.

"Captain."

Bepo was picked up without any resistance, his face dark with anger.

"And Lily, so cute."

"Captain, stop joking. The other person is probably Devil Fruit User; they seem to Backslide our ages."

"Isn't this the Devil Fruit we've been searching for? The one related to age, time, and the soul?"

"Hurry and chase after them." With a wave of her hand, Sakura made the decision.

"Captain, isn't that too reckless?" Conis was interrupted by Sakura before she could finish speaking. "Conis, don't worry. I was careless just now. This time, I definitely won't let his Seastone arm grab me."

"But"

What else does Conis want?

"It's alright, don't worry, I'm very strong!"
