Chapter 6
Lynn quietly looked at the Marine general who suddenly appeared before him.
purple hair, cloak of justice, Admiral rank.
And that burly body.
No doubt all showed the identity of that man.
The former Marine Headquarter, although now relegated to the second line to become an Instructor, still retains the Admiral rank of man——[Black Arm] Zephyr!
Lynn has a deep impression of the man in front of him.
When he was a teenager, Zephyr became Marine at the same time as Sengoku, Garp and Crane;
At the age of thirty-four, he became a Busoshoku Haki expert and achieved the name of 【Black Arm】;
p>
38 years old, became Marine Headquarter and got married in the same year.
At the age of forty-two, his family was killed by Pirate. The Marine Headquarter, who is known as "do not kill", has since hated Pirate. In order to suppress his inner resentment, he took the initiative to retreat to the second line and became the Instructor of Marine new recruits while retaining the rank of Admiral.
Since then, countless outstanding Marines have emerged among his students.
The future Three Great Admirals, Akainu, precognition, Kizaru, are all his students.
Onigumo, Yamakaji, Mole... those famous Vice Admiral will also call him Sensei.
The time is now.
At this time, Zephyr's arms are intact, obviously he has not experienced the tragedy soon after.
At some time in the future, the training ship led by Zephyr will be attacked by a certain Pirate. The students on the ship are almost wiped out. Only two people survived. Zephyr also lost an arm forever.
Marine scientists installed a Kairoseki robotic arm for Zephyr specifically to deal with Ability User, and then Zephyr formed a special force to deal with Ability User Pirate.
But not long after, Zephyr learned that Pirate, who had killed one of his own boat students, was recruited by the World Government and became one of the Shichibukai.
Zephyr, who was so disappointed with Marine, left Marine and called himself "Z", formed "NEOMarine" with the purpose of destroying the entire world Pirate, and then snatched "Explosive Rock", planning to put three places [ENDPOINT] Blow up, thereby triggering a seabed volcanic eruption, destroying the New World in one fell swoop, and ending the Great Age of Pirates.
In the end, Straw Hat's team desperately prevented the Zephyr plan, and he himself died in the battle with Marine in order to cover the Straw Hat team's going to sea, and was buried by the precognition.
But that was a long time later.
At this time, there are still about thirteen years before the Top War.
Now Zephyr is about 60 years old. Although there are wrinkles on his face, his face is not old, his arms are still intact, and his body is not like when he was fighting against Luffy and Kizaru. Being tortured by illness like that, there is no need to rely on medication to maintain physical fitness.
A very strong Old Master, smiled heartily-this is Lynn's first impression of Zephyr.
Looking at the cracked ground under Zephyr's feet, Lynn quickly produced a second impression on him--
Probably he was very good at hitting.
The Tiger on the other side does not know the identity of Zephyr, but the keen perception that belongs to Fishman is warning Tiger.
The man with purple hair in front of me is very strong!
"Be careful, he is Marine Headquarter, [Black Arm] Zephyr." Lynn warned.
Tiger's inner vigilance instantly rose to the extreme.
The reputation of Marine Headquarter, he did not know how many times he had heard of it as early as the explorer period!
Zephyr seemed a little surprised when he heard Lynn's words.
“It’s been many years since the old man retreated to the front line. Few people in Pirate in the new era knew me. I didn’t expect to be recognized by a little demon.”
At Zephyr's age, it is not uncommon to call Lynn a little demon.
"Then, let's continue with our previous topic."
Zephyr looked at Lynn and Tiger.
"Are you Pirate who attacked Celestial Dragon?"
Lynn felt an incomparable oppression from Zephyr's gaze. Although he knew that attacking Celestial Dragon would attract Marine Headquarters, Lynn really didn't expect this great character with a legendary color.
You can only take one step and see one step.
Thinking about it, Lynn shook his head suddenly, "This is only half right."
Zephyr was even more surprised, grinning said with a smile: "Where is it wrong?"
"We did attack Celestial Dragon, but we are not Pirate." Lynn replied.
"Then who are you guys?" Zephyr asked.
"His name is Fisher Tiger, and he is a Fishman explorer." Lynn pointed to Tiger on the side, and then pointed to himself, "And I am Lynn Barek, the hero who ate Hero Fruit. "
"Hero?" Zephyr suddenly felt that the little demon in front of him was particularly interesting, and couldn't help laughing heartily, "If that's the case, why not come to be Marine!"
"Because of this."
Lynn pulled open the sleeve of his right arm, and there was a crimson brand on his shoulder.
A circle and four triangles are like dragon's paw prints.
That is the mark of being a slave, Hoof of the Celestial Dragon!
Zephyr looked at the brand, his eyes suddenly stopped, and then lightly sighed.
"The old man understands."
Just looking at this branding, Zephyr has guessed what happened to Sabaody Archipelago.
slave, gladiator, Celestial Dragon, nobles...
in this world the old-fashioned plot that happens every moment.
Lynn looked at Zephyr, calmly said: "Please let me make a way, Zephyr-sensei."
"You call me Sensei?" Zephyr was taken aback.
"In terms of becoming a hero, you are my Sensei." Lynn said seriously.
As a person who ate Hero Fruit, Lynn respected the man in front of him from the heart.
Zephyr had a heroic dream named "Z" when he was a child. This dream made him named himself "Z" after he defected to Marine, and he persisted in it until his death. With this dream.
Such a man can afford the word "hero" and can make Lynn willingly call Sensei.
"Um..."
Zephyr was lost in thought, but in the end he shook the head.
"Sorry, this is the responsibility of Marine Headquarters. The old man wants you to be arrested."
"Then you can only speak with your fist."
Lynn rubbed his neck and secretly calculated the energy value in his body.
【Energy value】: 4001500.
It's still a battle!
Lynn stands on his side, tilts his center of gravity slightly forward, his left hand is forward and downward, his right hand is close to the ribs behind, his fists are clenched tightly, and his legs relax and bounce back and forth.
Zephyr looked at Lynn’s posture, grinning said with a smile: "Boxing, I haven’t seen anyone practicing this fighting technique for a long time."
"This is Actual combat skills."
Lynn's pupils flashed dark golden rays of light, before stepping on his front foot, he made two jabs!
peng peng!
Zephyr lifting blocked these two punches with his right arm and waved his backhand, but Lynn jumped back and avoided it.
"The speed and technique are very good!"
The years of Instructor career gave Zephyr the ability to recognize people, so he also appreciates the youngster in front of him more and more.
It's a pity...
Zephyr's gaze fell on the Hoof of the Celestial Dragon on Lynn's arm, and couldn't help feeling regretful.
But before the pity lasted for half a second, Lynn slammed two heavy punches at him again!
Hero skills: the power of a man.
peng peng!
The fist hit Zephyr's arm, but he only took a half step back.
Zephyr let out a sigh of relief, "It's a pity, the power is not enough."
The Tiger on the side couldn't help but his eyes widened when he saw this. Lynn's fist was personally experienced. , That far surpassed ordinary people's level of punches, even if he was impossible to take them without injury.
In fact, the bruises left by the fight with Lynn in the arena are still aching.
However, the man in front of him, the former Marine Headquarter [Black Arm] Zephyr, was able to easily take Lynn's punches, and even gave an evaluation of lack of strength!
The strength of Former Marine Admiral is almost desperate!
