Nefertari Sharle (Continued)
It's all academic jargon. I recognize each word individually, but when they're put together, I understand nothing at all.
"Leave professional matters to professionals."
Xia Le could only console herself.
He went to great lengths to protect the scholars of Ohara and to recruit Vegapunk, all so that they could shine.
It's important to understand that in this world, powerful science and technology are also a form of combat power.
In particular, the Lineage Factor researched by Vegapunk will shine brightly in the future.
Time passed, and the base remained peaceful.
Crocodile and Bullet continue to lead their soldiers in daily training.
Xia Le silently observed and made a simple assessment of the power he currently possessed.
"Top-tier combat power, Crocodile, Bullet."
"Medium combat strength, Saron, T Bone, Evens, and others."
"In addition, there is a weakened version of the Six Powers Squad, consisting of nine members."
"Secondly, there are thirteen thousand junior naval personnel who can be considered the strongest in the West Blue."
"Special talents include Ohara scholars and the great Scientist Vegapunk."
After a rough calculation, Xia Le frowned.
"Still too weak!"
"We need to recruit stronger, more elite combat forces."
"In addition, the new home for these scholars, Vegapunk's new Laboratory, also needs to be settled as soon as possible."
There are still many things waiting for him, but fortunately there is plenty of time.
The most important thing to pay attention to right now is the news from the Marine Headquarters and the World Government.
In the blink of an eye, another ten days have passed.
On this day, a Warship slowly approached the gate of the G-18 Fortress base.
At the bow of the boat, a burly man wearing a dog-head hat was snoring, having fallen asleep standing up.
The soldiers guarding the gate were all shocked when they saw the Warship in front of them and the figure on its bow.
"Vice Admiral Garp!!"
"Hero of the Navy Garp!"
The news quickly reached the base, and Ivy, the Aide, came to Xia Le with a look of anxiety on her face.
"Something's wrong, Superior Officer!"
"Vice Admiral Garp!"
Xia Le, however, smiled and didn't seem to care at all, "I saw it."
In fact, he had already spotted the Warship when it approached within 50,000 meters of the base.
Even in an instant, one can roughly guess some of the Navy's and the World Government's thoughts.
Aren't you nervous?
Ivy said in a trembling voice.
What's there to be nervous about?
"He's my teacher!"
Xia Le laughed.
After saying that, he stood up and walked outside.
A moment later, the Warship sailed into the Inner Bay and came to a steady stop in the Harbor. The naval personnel at G-18 Fortress watched the scene with bated breath.
They were terrified of their commander and Clash with this legendary hero.
A person's name is like a tree's shadow!
Vice Admiral Garp's reputation is in no way inferior to that of his own commander.
Once the two sides start fighting, it's really hard to say who will win or lose.
After a while, they saw the figure at the bow of the boat stretch and yawn.
"You brat, do you expect me to come and visit you on my own initiative?"
Suddenly, the man on the bow of the ship roared.
His knees bent slightly, and then everyone was horrified to see that the front half of the Dog-Head Warship was pressed down heavily, while the rear half was raised high.
The next second, the middle-aged man with Square-Faced Man was launched out, leaping hundreds of meters into the air.
"Having committed such a serious crime, I'm going to teach you a lesson, you rebellious disciple!"
While suspended in mid-air, the middle-aged man achieved a perfect hang time and roared.
At the same time, he clenched his right fist and pulled it back, completing the charging posture.
"Sizzle!"
Inazuma flashed in the air.
Xia Le stood in the corridor outside the office, watching Garp about to throw a punch, and couldn't help but smile.
"We're doomed!"
"Vice Admiral Garp really did come to arrest you, Superior Officer!"
Ivy exclaimed in horror.
Crocodile and Bullet, not far away, stared intently at the figure suspended in mid-air.
The next second, Garp threw a punch.
The air pressure above the base changed abruptly at that moment, and everyone felt a gentle breeze on their faces.
Immediately afterwards, Xia Le, who was in the corridor, vanished in a flash of Lightning.
At the same time, his figure appeared opposite Garp.
His right hand was also clenched tightly, with Black-Red Lightning crackling around it.
"How could I dare, Teacher Garp?"
"I was already on my way to greet you."
As soon as he finished speaking, his fist lashed out.
In mid-air, the two fists collided violently.
"Boom!" "Sizzle!"
A thunderous collision resounded, Electric Flash flashed out in long streaks, and a gust of wind howled out, sweeping over everyone's heads.
"You brat, you've gotten even stronger!"
"No wonder Sengoku and Zephyr are still unconscious."
Garp narrowed his eyes and grinned.
Then, it landed steadily on the Dog-Head Warship.
Xia Le also flashed and landed at the Harbor, standing right in front of Garp.
"Welcome, teacher, to Fortress G-18."
Xia Le laughed and said loudly.
The man before him was the one who had saved him when he was in dire straits and had personally guided him to where he is today.
Naturally, she was also the person he was most grateful to and respected.
"You brat!"
"You've really made something of yourself!"
Garp jumped off the ship, stood in front of Xia Le, glared at him, and slammed his fist down hard.
"Pain!"
Xia Le immediately clutched his head and cried out in pain.
"Alright, stop pretending."
"Let's find a quiet place; I need to talk to you about something."
Garp said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
Given the opponent's current strength, my punch just now wouldn't have made him cry out in pain at all.
"Yes!"
Xia Le immediately stood up and grinned.
After a while, inside the luxurious manor deep within the base.
The master and apprentice sat on the ground with a pot of tea and two teacups between them.
Ivy stood to one side, her whole body tense, dressed in loose-fitting clothes, acting as the one brewing tea.
The smile on Garp's face had vanished, replaced by seriousness and solemnity.
After a long silence, he finally spoke in a deep voice.
"Well done!"
Xia Le was taken aback, then looked up blankly. "?"
"Rescue Ohara, beat those three kids to a pulp, plus Sengoku Zephyr."
"The five old men were so angry they were practically fuming, but they had no choice but to grit their teeth and swallow their anger."
"I also need to do my best to cover all of this up for you."
Hahahaha!
He grabbed the teacup on the table, drank it all in one Garp, and burst into laughter.
"Well done, kid!!"
Xia Le then understood what her teacher was talking about.
"Hey-hey."
"So, teacher, you also support my action this time?"
Upon Wen Yan, Garp immediately glared at him. "I never said that, don't talk nonsense."
But from the smile in his eyes, one could still see his joy and ease.
Xia Le smiled slightly, "Then, teacher, who do you represent here?"
Ivy, who was standing nearby, very perceptively stepped forward and refilled the cup in front of Garp with tea until it was about seven-tenths full.
"World Government!"
"That is, those five old guys who stand at the top of the world!"
Garp spoke in a carefree manner.
"If it weren't for Kong searching for me repeatedly for almost half a month, I wouldn't have bothered coming to your place, kid."
Xia Le smiled and asked, "What did they say?"
Upon Wen Yan, Garp suddenly fell silent, and after several breaths, he finally raised his head to look at Xia Le.
"They made me tell you about my background."
Xia Le was taken aback. "Background?"
"Yes!"
"Previously, your file at Marine Headquarters indicated that you came from the West Blue and your Hometown was Ohara."
"But not long ago, a letter from Nefertari Cobra of the Alabasta Kingdom to the World Government changed that."
