Chapter 55: Secret Talks and Evaluations (Part 1)

"Give me a reason!" With Sengoku Tie Blushing and throwing out these words, the atmosphere in Zefa's office instantly became very heavy.

The usual Warring States is actually not a very serious person, or rather, when he is serious, something terrible must have happened, but the current Warring States has an expression that is not just serious.

However, the other two people in the office were all friends at the same time as him, whether it was Karp or Zefa, they had beaten each other many times at the beginning, so they were not at all interested in Sengoku's current expression.

It's just that Karp himself is curious about what makes Zefa make some incredible choices.

You know, this is completely contrary to Zefa's original idea!

Therefore, Karp is also waiting for Zefa's answer.

Zefa, as a party to the case, didn't seem to feel the pressure on the scene at all.

First, he slowly took out a bottle of wine from under the cabinet, unscrewed the cap easily without hurry, and took a big sip in front of Sengoku and Karp before taking out an object from the drawer.

is a picture frame.

Almost at the moment when Zefa took out this picture frame, the original heavy atmosphere of the entire office suddenly disappeared, and was replaced by a deep sadness and longing.

Looking at the photo in the frame for a long time, Zefa didn't speak, but there were some tears faintly on his resolute face.

And the sorrow and longing in Zefa's eyes that were so heavy that they were like substance were not concealed at all, so that everyone who saw him now knew how painful he was in his heart.

The originally menacing Warring States was silent, and Karp, who was originally curious and a little dissatisfied, was also silent, because they finally remembered that the friend in front of them at the same time, in fact, had been silently bearing the unbearable weight of life!

For a long time, Sengoku, whose facial expression had become soft and slightly embarrassed, slowly walked to Zefa's side, and was just about to say something, but he didn't expect Zefa to speak first:

"If, without Tesla...... Then, I have to bear this kind of pain again. ”

Zefa's tone was very calm, but the sadness revealed in his words was overflowing.

"Zefa ......" Sengoku knew the meaning of Zefa's words very clearly, and he also knew very well that this was by no means the reason why Zefa would make this decision.

"Sengoku, let me finish my words." Looking at the photo of his wife and the child who had just been born in his wife's arms, Zefa's eyes finally couldn't be controlled, and big drops fell.

"As a Navyman, in the first half of my life, I always thought that this was the luckiest thing that ever happened. Even though I lost my family and my children because of it, I knew that I still had the most important thing that I didn't lose, and that was my dream. In order to realize my dream, I am willing to dedicate my life to the Navy and cultivate more inheritors and inheritors for the cause of justice, however, ......"

“…… The truth is, if it weren't for Tesla, my dream would have been lost...... Sengoku, do you admit it? ”

Sengoku wanted to deny Zefa's statement, but when the words came to his lips, they finally turned into a helpless sigh: "Alas! ”

On the contrary, it was Karp beside him, his brows furrowed, and he was about to say something, but Zefa didn't give him a chance to speak:

"After that day, Tesla and I talked for a long, long time, from the matter of the Heavenly Golden Escort Fleet to that matter, although I don't agree with some of his views, but some other views make me empathize."

"What?!" Sengoku and Karp asked in unison.

At the same time, Sengoku, who was originally very disliked because of Tesla's brutality and thirst for killing, had a more and more bad impression of Zefa after hearing his words.

"The philosophy of the Navy is just, but the consequences of the mission of the people who make up the Navy are not necessarily just. Not to mention, what certain beings above the Navy do, do they have even the slightest relationship with the justice that the Navy believes in? ”

There is no need for Zefa to say anything, how can Sengoku and Karp, who are naval marshals and naval heroes, not know who their old friends refer to when they say they exist?

"But, Zefa, it is precisely because of this that the Navy needs an existence like you even more to cultivate more new elites! If you really leave, then the justice of the navy you believe in will lose all meaning?! Sengoku finally frowned and uttered the second complete sentence after entering this room.

Zefa shook his head: "It's different, Sengoku, it's really different." ”

After saying this, Zefa couldn't help but fall into the memories of the heated discussion with Tesla that day.

He didn't expect that it was just a discussion, but he believed that the letter for many years would be destroyed so cleanly by Tesla in one day.

Thinking of the irrefutable cruel facts that Tesla used to fight back against him, Zefa felt a pang of sadness in his heart.

It is precisely because his love for the Navy is so deep and heavy that when he saw the bloody facts cited by Tesla, his grief was even greater!

"The justice of the navy should not be the justice of bullying, the justice of maintaining privileges, and the justice of compromise and turning a blind eye! As the manager of the sea, if the navy can't even adhere to its own principles, Sengoku, you tell me, what is, really, justice! In the end, Zefa almost yelled at Sengoku.

Sengoku, who saw his old friend so out of shape for the first time, was silent in the face of his heartfelt questioning.

Not only him, but Karp also fell silent.

Because, what Zefa said was deliberately ignored by them.

As the strongest armed force under the world's government, the justice of the navy is, in fact, to maintain the rule of the world's government!

The rest of justice is nothing more than a tool concocted by the orthodox rulers to facilitate their rule.

Sengoku and Karp can see this far more clearly than Zefa in the past.

Therefore, when Zefa, who was awakened by Tesla, used this to attack them, they didn't even have the strength to fight back.

Because, what Zefa said is the truth, reality!

"Zefa, you're right, but have you thought about one thing? If there is no navy and no world government, what do you think the world will become? Could it be better than it is now? After being silent for a long time, Sengoku still spoke.

And it is worthy of the reputation of the wise general of the Warring States of the Buddha, a simple sentence, but it goes straight to the core of the problem.

Even Karp, whose position beside him was almost shaken, turned his eyes to Zefa after hearing Sengoku's words, wanting to hear the other party's explanation.

Unexpectedly, Zefa showed a helpless smile on his face: "I also asked Tesla about this sentence, do you know how he answered me?" ”

"It's him again!" Hearing Tesla's name from Zefa's mouth again, at this moment, Sengoku's dissatisfaction with him has reached its peak!

"How do you answer?" Karp asked first.

Zefa remembered the attitude and expression of his most proud disciple when he spoke at that time, and a trace of indignation suddenly appeared on his face:

"There is no such thing as the current world government, but there will be a new world government to replace him. The general trend of the world, a long time will be together, a long time will be divided! I really don't know how he could have such a profound understanding of politics and politics at such a young age! ”

"The general trend of the world, a long time must be together, a long time must be divided, a long time must be divided?!!" is a simple and straightforward sentence, but the Warring States, known as the wise general, were stumped.

Before he could finish his words, Zefa said to Karp, "Karp, do you know what that kid from Tesla said about the Revolution Army created by your son?" ”

Karp, who had been playing soy sauce for a while, didn't expect Zefa to actually lead the war to him, but since the other party mentioned his pride, he was naturally very curious about Tesla's evaluation of his son.

"What did he say?"

"Even if there is no Monchi D. Dragon, there will be an existence similar to him, create an organization similar to the Revolutionary Army, and then overthrow the rule of the current world government and become the new ruler."

“???!!!” Karp never expected to hear such an incredible evaluation from Zefa's mouth.

"Impossible! As long as the navy exists, the revolutionary army will never succeed! On the contrary, the Warring States on the side instantly refuted Zefa and said loudly.

Zefa's refutation of Sengoku is undeniable.

It's just that he took the photo frame back to the drawer, and then drank all the contents of the wine bottle in one gulp, and then said slowly: "Warring States, Karp, in fact, the focus of your attention is wrong. ”

"Uh-huh???" Sengoku and Karp stared at Zefa instantly, waiting for his explanation.

"You should be glad that the Tesla Man killed the pirate Edward Wibull that day! Didn't you think about what would happen if he wasn't there that day and I didn't protect the training ship? Zefa said lightly an idea that made Sengoku and Karp suddenly feel a little frightened.

"Perhaps, you don't know the status of your family in Tesla's heart. But I can tell you for sure that on that day, if something really happened to the Thunder Butterfly and Thunder Bud on the ship, then whether it is the navy, the pirates, or even the world government, in the next twenty years, they will live in infinite terror and remorse! As if he felt that the previous sentence was not enough of a deterrent, Zefa threw out an even more terrifying hypothesis.

Warring States' brows suddenly furrowed into a big Sichuan character, but before he could speak, Karp, who was more anxious, spoke first: "Impossible!" He is alone, thinking about the other side's navy, pirates and world government? Don't be kidding, Zefa, even if he is your most proud disciple, it is impossible to do it! If nothing else, don't you know the strength of your other three students? Not to mention, the existence of three pirate giants, Edward the Bearded, Kaido the Beast, and Charlotte Lingling! ”

"So what?" Zefa's rhetorical question made Karp fall silent for a moment.

"Sakaski, Kuzan and Polusalino are indeed the strongest of all my students! However, because I am their teacher, I know better how terrible their junior brother, Nikola Tesla! Sengoku, Karp, do you need me to remind you, has he just passed his 11th birthday!! ”

Lore!

With Zefa's last sentence, whether it was Sengoku or Karp, he stopped talking.

It wasn't until they were awakened by Zefa that they finally remembered that the little ghost who now had the combat power of a general, compared to other existences that were at least 30 years old or older, he had just passed his 11th birthday!

He was only 11 years old!!

What terrible news is that?

"Time is always on Tesla's side. And we're all from that age. I think you should know very well that the fastest stage of a person's actual combat power improvement is in the range of 15-35 years old. In other words, there is no end in sight to the strength of Tesla in the future! Even, I dare to assert that in less than 10 years, according to the current trend of his strength, even Whitebeard, who is known as the strongest man in the world, will have to honestly hand over this title to him! Now, do you still think what I'm saying is alarmist? Or do you still insist that Tesla isn't as scary as you think it is? Zefa's voice was calm and steady, but his words were sensational.

It's just that this time, Sengoku and Karp can't find any reason to refute him.

"So...... If, that day, something really happened to Lei Die and Lei Ya, believe me, Sengoku, you definitely don't want to see Tesla in that state. ”

Zefa said this sentence very, very seriously.
