The scene fell into a deathly silence.
Faced with Ain's exclamation, under normal circumstances, many people would definitely not be able to help but refute it.
However, after witnessing Bai Yu's battle with Kaido firsthand...
The arrogance of these seniors vanished instantly.
They are currently undergoing freshman assessments.
However, the opponent has already become a Admiral capable of fighting against the Four Emperors.
The final outcome, though seemingly dishonorable, was...
However, this is a real battle.
It leaves one with a feeling that there's no way to refute it.
"Hmph, no matter how powerful they are, in the end they still disappear without a trace, don't they?"
"For a Devil Fruit User to dare to jump into the sea and escape is utterly foolish."
Binz couldn't hold back any longer and spoke first.
"Four days have passed since the battle with Kaido, and there's still no sign of him. I'm afraid he's truly doomed."
Upon hearing this, the expressions of the freshmen present changed.
They weren't surprised that Binz would say such a thing.
After all, before Bai Yu suddenly appeared, Binz and Ain were the most dazzling newcomers in the Marine Headquarters.
Unfortunately, Bai Yu's appearance completely overshadowed the two of them.
That's not the main point.
The most important reason is that it also allowed a large group of people to break through and master the Haki.
This caused the spotlight that originally belonged to the two of them to dim instantly, almost turning them into just another passerby.
If they weren't Devil Fruit User, they probably wouldn't have any presence at all within the Marine Headquarters.
" Binz, what you're saying is a bit much. The situation hasn't been investigated clearly yet, so it's probably inappropriate to draw conclusions so hastily."
Ain frowned and couldn't help but say something.
In the original work, her personality might be described as somewhat cold and unapproachable.
However, this change in personality only occurred after encountering a crisis.
You could say that she's still just an ordinary person.
Upon his appearance, he immediately stole Bai Yu's spotlight as the top freshman.
From the very beginning, I had a bit of a competitive spirit about it.
However, as time went on, Bai Yu continued to achieve one incredible feat after another.
Each time, it aroused a sense of curiosity in Ain.
However, this initial curiosity, over time, transformed into a different kind of interest.
It could be said that even Ain was unaware of the subtle changes that were taking place within herself.
Only Binz, who was constantly watching her, noticed this.
That is precisely why Binz said such a thing.
Seeing Ain speak up for him again, Binz's expression darkened, and he hurriedly spoke up once more.
" Ain, that's one of the Four Emperors, the pinnacle of existence on this sea."
"Who told him to be so arrogant, daring to plot against the Four Emperors?"
"Given his usual behavior, if nothing had happened, he would have already been out and about. Now that he's been missing for so long and hasn't reappeared, what else could it be but a sign that something terrible has happened to him?"
"As someone who can't swim, he jumped into the sea and came out alive. I'll try it too!"
you!
Ain was speechless with anger.
"Alright, this isn't something you need to argue about right now. Whether that kid's fate is grim or not, it's not something you can discuss."
Zephyr sighed and looked towards the dock.
Originally, Zephyr had always held hope and pride in his group of students whom he had painstakingly nurtured.
At least in his eyes, he was the only one in the entire Marine Headquarters who could train such an outstanding student.
It was precisely for this reason that when Garp mentioned Bai Yu's existence, he was full of criticism and contempt.
However, after so many things...
Zephyr couldn't help but glance at the group of students behind him.
It's really impossible to compare people like this.
"Professor Zephyr, the dock up ahead seems a little too quiet..."
Ain's voice suddenly rang out.
Zephyr snapped out of his reverie and couldn't help but look towards the dock.
The first thing you see is indeed an empty, deserted dock.
Along the way, we discovered many empty ships and deserted cities.
Zephyr's brows furrowed to the extreme, Observation Haki surged forth like a tide, instantly engulfing the town behind the dock.
As soon as he got close, Zephyr's expression changed.
In my perception, the breath of each life is rapidly fading away.
This bizarre scene immediately moved Zephyr.
" Ain, Binz, come with me to the town center; something seems strange there!"
Zephyr rushed out immediately.
With a burst of speed from his Geppo, he rushed rapidly towards the shore.
Ain and Binz also suddenly came to their senses, completely baffled by Zephyr's sudden request.
However, seeing that Zephyr was about to force his way ashore, he didn't care about anything else and planned to quickly follow.
However, just as they moved, Zephyr's expression suddenly changed drastically, and he the Roar urgently.
" Ain, Binz, get out of the way!"
Bang!
A crimson, Flying Slash cleaved through the rocky forest.
They moved so fast that they arrived on the warship in the blink of an eye.
Seeing the students who seemed stunned, Zephyr the Roar and stomped down with a powerful burst of air.
It frantically turned around and charged towards the slashing attack.
Boom!
The massive blast wave swept backward.
The new students, including Ain, were directly thrown out.
Before they could even react, they saw Zephyr, his clothes torn, staggering backward through the sandstorm, his sleeves ripped into tiny pieces.
His arms were covered in jet-black Armament Haki.
It was obvious that in that brief exchange, Zephyr, in a moment of desperation, directly used Armament Haki to clash head-on with the Flying Slash.
If Zephyr hadn't intervened in time, that strike would likely have not only cleaved the warship in two, but also caused significant casualties among the new recruits present.
Zephyr's face was grim as he dissipated the Armament Haki from his hands, revealing a gruesome gash on his arm.
Seeing this, all the new students involuntarily contracted their pupils.
This is a former Marine Admiral, known as Black Arm Zephyr.
He was indeed anxious to save people, so he directly used Armament Haki to withstand the attack.
However, someone who could injure Zephyr in a single encounter.
That's probably very rare, isn't it?
Could it be Dracule Mihawk from the Shichibukai?
No!
As one of the Shichibukai, Hawk-Eye certainly has an unpredictable way of doing things.
However, due to the restrictions of the Shichibukai, he would absolutely not take action against the Navy.
Moreover, compared to other Shichibukai in all Shichibukai missions.
Dracule Mihawk is actually easier to communicate with.
This attack definitely didn't come from Hawk-Eye.
At least, in Zephyr's eyes, it was completely impossible.
When Zephyr looked in the direction of the slash, his expression darkened.
As expected, the thing I was worried about happened.
This is the worst-case scenario!
