While the three members of the new student group and CP0 were still unable to recover from their shock...
Ages, holding Lucci, remained calm and indifferent, and said...
"So boring"
Hearing Ages ' words, the freshmen present swallowed hard, while the three members of CP0 rubbed their eyes vigorously, unable to believe what they were seeing.
Bang!
After saying this, Ages waved his hand, sending Lucci flying towards the three CP0 members.
Lucci's body traced a perfect parabola in the air before gliding across the ground, stopping precisely at CP0's feet.
The three members of CP0 were still rubbing their eyes, unable to believe what they were seeing.
CP0, wearing a pure white mask, stared in disbelief and muttered to himself.
"This... how is this possible?"
Another CP0 member nearby swallowed hard, staring at Lucci, who was covered in blood and in shock, at his feet, unable to believe his eyes.
"This... this... the fight has only just begun...4 seconds? No, he only took 2 seconds to defeat Lucci? How is that possible!"
Just as the three members of CP0 were muttering to themselves, unable to accept the cruelty of reality, a reproachful voice, devoid of any hint of blame, rang out.
" Ages, you've gone too far! Didn't I tell you to go easy on him? Look what you've done to that 'ultimate killing weapon'! No way, I'm going to punish you!"
"Hmm? Your punishment is that you're not allowed to eat the training camp food today."
The three members of CP0, hearing the ticklish punishment and mocking reproaches, turned red with anger, as if about to erupt like a volcano, pointing at Garp, speechless with rage.
"You... you... you..."
Yes, the person who spoke such blaming words to Ages was none other than Vice Admiral Garp.
Upon hearing this, Ages dusted off his hands, put on an innocent expression, and shrugged.
" Vice Admiral Garp, I was wrong, I had no choice, I went easy on him, who knew... who knew... this student is so... easy to hit!"
When Ages spoke, he deliberately elongated the pronunciation of the important words, then shook his head helplessly, rubbed his forehead, and pretended to be secretly resentful that he had overestimated Lucci's strength.
The banter between Ages and Vice Admiral Garp made everyone present, except for CP0 members, including Sengoku and Zephyr, unable to suppress their laughter.
After a while...
The laughter continued.
"Ha ha ha ha..."
"Hey, did you hear that? Did someone just say they wanted to finish this boring fight quickly?"
"Yes, yes, but what they said wasn't wrong; it was indeed a quick victory."
The new students' conversation once again caused everyone present to burst into laughter.
Upon hearing this, even Garp usually oblivious Garp laughed until tears streamed down his face...
"Ha ha ha ha..."
Ages would occasionally chime in with a bewildered expression, adding fuel to the fire.
"Hey... it's not good for you guys to laugh like that. After all, they beat us even when they were holding back. Don't laugh, don't laugh, hehehehe."
"Ha ha ha ha..."
Ages's embellishments made the atmosphere even more lively, Garp even gave Ages a thumbs up and burst into laughter...
Finally, after everyone laughed for a while, the pure white-masked man among the three CP0 members felt utterly humiliated. He, who was usually calm and never got angry, roared for the first time.
"That's enough!!!"
"What's so funny!"
"So what if he defeated one of my 13-year-old subordinates from CIPHER-POL? Look at Ages, he should be a few years older than him. What's so funny about an older person defeating a younger one?"
" Lucci is 15 years old, he's definitely stronger than that Ages of yours!"
"Hmph! Huff... Huff..."
After spewing out several sentences in one breath, the CP0 member wearing the pure white mask snorted coldly, then glared angrily at everyone, looking as if they owed him money and hadn't paid it back.
"Yeah, what's so funny?" the other two CP0 members echoed in unison.
"Forehead..."
The words spoken by CP0, who wore a pure white mask, caused everyone present to stop laughing and look at the three members of CP0 with strange expressions.
The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became strange.
After CP0 finished criticizing the pure white mask that had calmed everyone down, he looked up, noticed the strange looks they were giving him, frowned, and said with a disdainful expression.
"What? Why are you looking at me like that? Your Ages only won because he had a few more years of training. Humph, am I wrong?"
CP0's words did not quiet the crowd; instead, they looked at the three CP0 members with increasingly strange expressions.
The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became increasingly eerie...
"Forehead..."
Seeing the even stranger looks from everyone, the three members of CP0 felt an indescribable sense of unease.
Just then...
Zephyr walked out with a wide smile and said softly.
"You're saying that our Ages only won because we're older than Lucci and have trained for a few more years?"
"Hmph! That's right, if Lucci were the same age as Ages, Lucci would absolutely crush your Ages."
The CP0 member with the pure white mask was momentarily confused by Zephyr's Zephyr words, but not wanting to lose face, he snorted coldly.
Upon hearing the words of CP0 in the pure white mask, Zephyr showed no anger, but instead smiled even more broadly and spoke.
"Heh, if you think that we, Ages, only won because we trained a few more years than Lucci?"
"Hehe, I can't really say either, but!"
At this point, Zephyr smiled and said.
"If your Lucci can wipe out over 100 Human Mimics resembling cannibals at age 10, reach 500 Doriki at age 11, Awakening Observation Haki, learn the Six Powers at age 12, and Armament Haki at age 13, then I'll admit that your Lucci is indeed as talented as Ages, hehe."
silence...
After Zephyr said those words, the three members of CP0 fell silent. To be precise, they were Zephyr, unable to utter a single word in rebuttal.
At this moment, the three members of CP0 felt as if a volcano was erupting and a tsunami was crashing down on them, unable to remain calm.
The three members of CP0 simultaneously glanced at Ages, who was standing with his hands in his pockets, looking relaxed and smiling at them. They immediately felt a chill run down their spines.
Without another word, he picked up the still unconscious Lucci and tucked his tail between his legs and walked away.
As everyone watched the three members of CP0 walk away, they burst into laughter once again!
"Ha ha ha ha..."
Hearing the mocking laughter from afar, the three members of CP0 lowered their heads even further and quickened their pace away...
"I've really lost face today!"
