Chapter 24
One Piece – Admiral Silver Fox Chapter 24
Marine Academy, located at the rear of the headquarters building, has an equally large footprint.
As the name suggests, Marine Academy is a place to cultivate the mainstay of Marine. Those who can enter here are all children with high innate talent or special ability, and of course there are backdoors.
The future Marine Headquarter Sakazuki, Borsalino, Kuzan have all studied here, as well as many Marine Vice Admiral, you can imagine the importance of Marine Academy.
Anyone who goes out from here, as long as they have strength and emotional intelligence, the worst is a second lieutenant or above, which is no different from ascending to the skies with a single leap.
This is why Foxy wants to join Marine so much, because he has a great probability to join it at his age.
Here, not only can you learn what you want, but there is no mortal danger. After graduation, you will be a general, which is equivalent to taking a shortcut.
If you don't join Marine, you will not only have to live in fear, but also don't know how to effectively cultivate, and any accident may exist. It's easy to waste your time.
The gap between the two, as long as you are not mentally retarded, you will know how to choose.
Following behind the crane and looking at the surrounding scenery, Foxy was very excited. He had not suffered in vain during this period of time, and he had to seize this opportunity.
The day you take off, starts from this Academy.
Wandering around, through a large playground, Foxy saw a lot of children who were not much different from him were cultivating, sweating and doing all kinds of extreme moves, and the fuck made Foxy teeth just by looking at it. pain.
There is also a little girl in it. She is a beautiful woman in the making at a young age.
But looking at the culture, it seems that I am not an opponent.
When Foxy looked at these children, there were also a few pairs of eyes looking towards him, but they were just casual glances, much calmer than Foxy.
Retracting his gaze, Foxy followed the crane into a building. This was an office with the windows facing the playground. No wonder the kids weren't slacking off and were being stared at.
It was the man.
Looking at the man behind the desk, Foxy got excited again.
Black Arm Zephyr, the current Marine Headquarter, a man who has devoted his life to justice and Marine.
In the future, most of the generals in Marine have been taught by him, and there are even forums that if Zephyr wants to become Marine Fleet Admiral, then Sengoku has no chance.
But Zephyr is Sengoku's friend and doesn't seem to be keen on power.
At this time, Zephyr was in his prime, and his hands were intact. This man's life was full of ups and downs.
I entered Marine Academy at the same time as Garp, Sengoku and Crane. I participated in actual combat for the first time at the age of 18. At the age of 28, I was a Rokushiki expert. At the age of 34, I became a Busoshoku Haki powerhouse. The title Black Arm.
Became Marine Headquarter at age 38, married the same year, and gave birth to a son at age 39.
But the nightmare has just begun. The 42-year-old family was killed by Pirate, and he began to hate Pirate and offered to resign, but was retained by Sora, Sengoku and the others. Even so, he was not disappointed with Marine, and he still retained the rank of Admiral. , and later transferred to Instructor to cultivate offspring for Marine.
Although he retired, he would do his part if Marine had any major event that required him to act.
At the age of 65, he was attacked by Pirate when he was leading the training ship. Many beloved students were killed except for one or two, and the right hand was also lost.
The seventy-year-old's right arm was transformed into a shredder equipped with a mechanical arm, and then he formed a Pirate guerrilla team and began to hunt Pirate wildly.
At the age of 73, he learned that Pirate, who cut off his arm, joined Marine to become Oka Shichibukai, and began to have a strong sense of doubt and distrust within Marine, and resolutely quit Marine with the aim of annihilating the entire world of Pirate. "NEOMarine" was established.
And then there's Luffy, the son of destiny, buried by Borsalino after a fight.
Foxy is not very clear about these specific events, he only knows that this man is the real Marine, purer than anyone else.
His selfless devotion has allowed Marine to alternate between old and new, in a role that matches what Sengoku did when he became Fleet Admiral.
Pirate King's event line Foxy only remembers those experiences of Luffy 20 years later, and the timeline is even more incomprehensible, even more how 20 years ahead.
So Foxy could only guess, relying on those forums or casually seen discussions in his mind, and finally he came to a conclusion that this man may have lost his family now.
To be honest, Foxy had some sympathy for this man, but he had spent most of his life in return for such a miserable end.
From Zephyr's point of view, his friends Sengoku, Garp, and Crane are all incompetent, and even worthless friends.
Let a Pirate who cut off his friend's arm become Shichibukai? Just don't kill the Pirate and rub salt on Zephyr's wound.
Zephyr's withdrawal from Marine is of course a loss of hope for Marine, but why isn't it a loss of hope for Sengoku and the others?
It would be chilling to be anyone else.
This is seen from Zephyr's point of view, but from Sengoku's point of view, it may be because of Marine, which needs to balance those forces on the sea.
Or maybe it was Holy Land's order, maybe it's not just Zephyr who suffers, Sengoku and the others may be more self-blame and painful.
In their position to seek their government and to fulfill their duties.
"Little Tsuru, you're here."
Heard Zephyr lift his head from the document, looked at Crane with a smile, then glanced at Foxy, got up and left the desk to walk away He went to the sofa next to him and motioned for the crane to sit down.
"I see the little fellows on the playground are working hard."
Sitting down, Crane looked out the window at the little fellows who were cultivating on the playground. On the side, seeing Zephyr looking over, he quickly retracted his gaze and cultivated.
"Innate talents are very good, as long as they are well cultivated, they can become the mainstay of Marine in the future."
Zephyr smiled, looked away from the playground, and poured a glass of cold water for the crane. coffee.
"It's cold again."
He took a sip from the coffee crane, and then looked at Zephyr with disgust.
"haha...I only have cold here."
Behind him, Foxy was standing well and quietly.
Zephyr and Crane seem to have forgotten him, talking and laughing.
To be honest, Foxy felt a little uncomfortable, but he didn't show it, just waited patiently.
About ten minutes before the conversation finally turned to him.
"Zephyr, this is the Foxy I told you last time."
The crane pointed to the Foxy next to him and introduced it to Zephyr.
"I have seen Zephyr-sensei."
Foxy did not dare to desert, and when the crane introduced him, he stood up straight and gave a military salute to Zephyr, his voice loud and serious.
"Like Tsuru-chan said, very polite."
Zephyr is just nodded.
"Your name is Foxy?"
"Yes."
Standing upright, Foxy answered obediently and honestly despite knowing Zephyr was asking .
"How old is this year."
"Fourteen."
"Devil Fruit Ability User?"
"Yes ."
"Why did you become Marine?"
"I want to become stronger, I want revenge, I want to destroy Pirate, I want to live well, this is me and Ah Beth's promise."
As it is, Foxy copied what he had said to Crane at the beginning, and said it loudly and decisively.
"Not bad."
Zephyr stopped asking, glanced at Foxy's closed left eye, and turned to Crane.
Worthy of being a good friend for many years, Zephyr understood it just by looking at Divine Crane.
"I asked Dr. Potter about Foxy's left eye, and he can only use Devil Fruit's ability."
"That's right, I'll accept this student."
