Without hesitation, Bogard leaped high from the deck and caught Vice Admiral Garp as he flew backward.
" Vice Admiral Garp!!"
"It's over. Even the naval heroes have been defeated. We're all going to be killed by the Blond Hair Pirates."
"What are you afraid of? Even if I die in battle, I will tear off a piece of their flesh."
"That's right, prepare for a fight to the death!!"
The naval soldiers on the warships, most of the new recruits were dominated by fear, but the veterans had emerged from mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
Even now, we still have the courage to fight to the death.
"Don't act impulsively."
"All of you step back."
Bogard and Garp returned to the deck of the warship. Garp stood up and looked at Kazu, knowing that he had no intention of continuing the fight, and quickly stopped the soldiers.
Even if all his men attacked together, it would be futile; it would only add to the casualties.
Although the soldiers were very worried about Garp, they had to obey the Vice Admiral's orders and all retreated a considerable distance.
"Hey, old man Garp, you're still alive and kicking! You're really something else."
Kazu used a Space Swap to appear in front of the Dog-Head Warship, and started talking to Garp face to face.
"Haha, if we're talking about being extraordinary, you truly live up to the name. You hid it so well; we were all fooled by you."
Garp plopped down on the deck; he had quite a few injuries, and they were indeed in some pain.
Although the Marines behind Garp had shared a meal with the Blond Hair Pirates before, who knew if they might suddenly attack and hurt them, after all, they were pirates.
Everyone nervously swallowed, watching the conversation between the other party and Vice Admiral Garp.
"I had no choice. The World Government is simply too powerful. I dare not be too aggressive unless I am invincible."
Upon hearing that Kazu had been wary of the World Government, he nodded in understanding.
Those Celestial Dragons were indeed all bad, but it must be admitted that the World Government's own military strength was indeed formidable.
As a high-ranking officer in the navy, he naturally knew many secrets that ordinary people couldn't access.
What you said is absolutely right.
Garp's words were surprising, but Bogard, who was standing nearby, was already used to it and didn't say anything more.
"Oh, right, old man Garp."
"We were just about to go see your son. Would you like to come with us?"
"I'm sure that guy Long will be quite surprised when he sees you, hahaha."
Upon hearing Kazu's words, Garp, unusually, did not reply immediately, but instead lowered his head, seemingly lost in thought.
"It's better for me not to go. Meeting him now would only do him harm, not benefit him."
"But I really didn't expect that you would have connections with that kid Long."
"It seems you're after something quite substantial."
Kazu understood Garp's meaning. Dragon hadn't yet reached the point where the World Government was relentlessly pursuing him. If Garp were to intervene, it would likely provoke an even stronger reaction from the World Government.
The Revolutionary Army is still too inexperienced; it has no chance of winning against the behemoth that is the World Government.
Besides, that bastard son of his drove him crazy back then. Even if he retires and goes home to live a peaceful life, he won't help him.
"Your ambitions are quite ambitious... are they?"
"It's nothing, I just want to live freely."
" The World Government is too much of an eyesore; it's blocking my way, it's that simple."
If anyone else overheard what Kazu said, they would probably be terrified on the spot.
However, as Devil Fruit User, Garp is, without a doubt, incredibly resilient and able to withstand pressure.
"Hahaha, if it were you, I believe there really would be such a chance."
"However, you should be careful of one person; even Rocks fell into his hands back then."
Kazu knew perfectly well who Garp was talking about, but he wasn't that concerned about the other person anymore.
His raw strength is probably no weaker than his opponent's, and coupled with his spacetime abilities, he can both attack and defend.
He even has the urge to take a stroll among the Flower Room now.
"Don't worry, I'm aware of that person's existence."
"However, the time is not yet ripe. The best time will be after the Revolutionary Army has truly transformed."
Seeing the resolute look in Kazu's eyes, Garp grinned and laughed.
"It's good that you know what's going on."
"By the way, I didn't say anything just now."
Though late, Garp still activated his Devil Fruit ability.
"By the way, Kazu, I just splashed seawater on you, why weren't you affected?"
"How could they swindle an old man like me so badly? They really have no respect for the elderly!"
Garp grew angrier and angrier as he spoke. He had finally managed to use his brain, only to be defeated so utterly by Garp.
