Chapter 460: The New Four Emperors, Red-Haired Shanks (4200 Words)
The internship began on the third day after that.
In fact, Zefa's original plan was to sail early the next morning, but because of the Akainu incident, the Sengoku kept them for two more days, and once the Akainu failed to recover or something happened again, this matter could not be good in any case.
Fortunately, it didn't take long for Sengoku to receive the 'good news', and on the way to escort the pirates to the Deep Sea Prison (ImpelDown), Akainu used a meteor volcano to beat a pirate group to the point that there was no scum left.
In addition, a complaint was received from Magellan, the director of the Deep Sea Prison, that the general Akainu killed all the pirates who were supposed to be handed over on the grounds that they had escaped from prison.
If it is understandable that the pirate was killed by mistake during the battle, but since he had been caught and the prison was ready to receive it, he found an excuse to execute him on the way, Magellan believed that Akainu's actions were unruly and should be punished.
Signed by the prison warden, Hiryu, along with Magellan, strongly condemned Akainu's unauthorized killing of prisoners, questioning whether he was provoking the majesty of Justice Island and the Deep Sea Prison on behalf of the Navy.
Magellan felt that something was wrong with Hirius, but now that everyone was on the same side, he didn't think about it.
Sengoku is both relieved that Akainu has returned to his normal style, but he is also a little subtly disappointed, maybe he still hopes that Akainu can change a little bit. In addition, the complaints from the Grand Prison under the sea gave him some headaches.
It's not once or twice that Akainu has killed the pirates who gave up resistance, he knows that Akainu is extremely ruthless to pirates due to his tragic childhood experience, and killing some pirates is nothing, so Sengoku feels that it can be tolerated.
But this time it was different, this time it was to contact the big prison, and after agreeing on the delivery date, he started to kill the prisoners, strictly speaking, it was a bit out of bounds.
In today's situation, Sengoku has no choice at all, and Akainu is his own person after all, so he can only protect him. Sengoku was a little glad that Akainu wasn't the kind of person who did things recklessly, at least he found a plausible reason before he did it.
How to reprimand him when Akainu comes back, that is an internal matter of the navy, and the external can only bite to death is the pirate who escaped from prison first, and the image of the navy must be well maintained.
Speaking of which, it seems that this incident started again because of the amber tour group, right? If it weren't for them, Akainu's temper wouldn't have been good or bad lately, although ...... Zhang Da was originally kind.
Sengoku was a little skeptical that it was a bad decision to let them come to the Navy Headquarters.
β¦β¦
The training camp went out to practice piloting the large warship, and the Amber tour group was naturally on the Amber because Wendy, a seasick person, was there.
Zefa looked at Wendy, who was afraid of the warship, and had a faint sadness, the most effective seasickness medicine in the headquarters had been tried by Wendy, and it was completely useless.
He also took Wendy for some tests, and finally came to the conclusion that her semicircular canal might be defective, and there was no clue how to cure it. A group of medical experts could only say that they could not do anything in the face of Zefa's request.
Of course, Zhang Da also accompanied Wendy during the examination, and he had to keep an eye on whether those people could draw Wendy's blood. Zhang Da also didn't want to suddenly see a Seraphic Angel based on Wendy a few years later.
The journey was not uneventful, the two ships encountered several bad weather events, and each time a storm hit, the first thing Zefa did was lift a few cadets and throw them onto the Amber so that they could learn to steer with Artoria.
The students cherished the opportunity, and except for the occasional help to pull the rope and retract the sails, they carefully observed Artoria's movements throughout the whole process. Artoria also took the time to explain, but in the end, the result was not satisfactory.
The students have said that their hands have betrayed them -
Brain: I will.
Hand: No, you won't.
Sure enough, if you want to be a good helmsman, you also need talent, Zefa accepted the reality, although the 'international student' can still throw, but he doesn't have much hope in his heart.
"Big news, big news!" The international student who was thrown over today was Kane, who had a very good attitude and even bought a newspaper for the Amber tour group.
"Is something wrong?" Zhang Da also asked.
Wang Zhi ...... Wang Zhi ......" Kane glared, his voice trembling a little, "One of the Four Emperors, the Five Peaks Ship Master Wang Zhi has been defeated!" That is, the position of the Four Emperors...... Substitutions! β
"Who did it?" Zhang Da also already had a guess that this One Piece King Zhi had not been going well since he became the Fourth Emperor half a year ago.
First provoked the red-haired pirates, unexpectedly frustrated, and then kept being harassed by some small pirates who wanted to pick up the cheap, although it didn't cause much damage, but it also allowed other royal groups to find an opportunity to encroach on Wang Zhi's territory.
The most uncomfortable thing is that the world government that personally put him in the position of the Four Emperors is also making trouble for him openly and secretly, sometimes sending CP over to make trouble, sometimes ordering the navy to attack the pirates under his banner, and a few days ago, Azure Pheasant also pulled two ships of ice sculpture pirates back.
For a while, Wang Zhi had a feeling that he was the enemy of the world, as if the whole world was targeting him, making him overwhelmed.
And what really brought him and his pirates to the bottom was the battle that lasted from four days ago until last night.
According to a report sent back by a war correspondent who is not afraid of death, the red-haired pirates took the initiative to enter the territory of the Five Peaks Pirates four days ago, and clashed with the core members of the Five Peaks Pirates.
This is not the first time that the two sides have clashed, and in the past few months, Wang Zhi has been looking for trouble with them because he lost face in the last war with the red-haired pirates and wants to get it back.
And redheads are not easy to mess with, I will fight back as many people as you come.
And during a certain conflict, Hongo, the ship doctor of the red-haired pirates, was attacked and seriously injured, which completely angered the red-haired pirates.
So after Hongo recovered from his injuries, all the members of the red-haired pirates broke into Wang Zhi's territory and started an all-out fierce battle with the Wufeng Pirates.
As a result, all members of the red-haired pirates were wounded, and the Five Peaks Pirates were completely defeated.
At the last moment, if it weren't for a mysterious man who suddenly appeared to rescue, even Wang Zhi himself might have died on the spot.
It is worth noting that in this war, as the Eagle Eye of the Seven Martial Seas of His Majesty, Jorakol Mihawk, actually stood with the people of the red-haired pirates, and defeated a swordsman, and even had a few moves with Wang Zhi.
This kind of news makes people very concerned, does Hawkeye's behavior mean that he is going to leave the Seven Martial Seas of His Majesty and join the red-haired pirates? Or is it that the red-haired pirates' actions this time were instructed by the world government?
As for the truth of the incident, there were different opinions for a while. But what is certain is that after this battle, the red-haired Shanks will become famous all over the world as the youngest emperor of the sea.
"This man is unlucky." Zhang Da also finished reading the report, and felt that Wang Zhi was really miserable, only half a year after becoming the fourth emperor, he was beaten from the peak to the trough, and now his whereabouts are unknown, life and death are unknown, and he doesn't know what will happen in the future.
Unlike Zhang Daye's mentality of watching the excitement, Kane, who is in the navy, is worried: "Is Hawkeye really going to withdraw from the Seven Martial Seas?" He's the world's number one swordsman......"
Kane glanced at Artoria, who was quietly drinking tea, and changed his words: "Maybe it's the former world No. 1, if you join the red-haired pirates, it will be too scary." β
Although Artoria has clarified that she did not defeat Hawkeye at the time, the marines are mindful of the second half of the phrase, "Didn't lose to him either."
So they are subconsciously willing to believe in the results they want, maybe this beautiful girl who trains with them every day is the first in the world, and Hawkeye is already the second in the world.
"Probably not." Zhang Da also felt that with Hawkeye's character, most of the time he just went to the swordsman of the Five Peaks Pirates to sharpen his sword, and he acted with the red-haired pirates just because it was more convenient to fight in with them to find someone.
Of course, with his friendship with the redhead, it makes sense to help a little. And the ship doctor who was attacked may have healed Hawkeye beforeβit's not uncommon for Hawkeye and the redhead to be painted after a duel.
Vivi asked curiously, "Is the red-haired Shanks a scary person?" β
Zhang Da also thought about it and said, "It's not counting, it's not bad compared to a lot of scum pirates." But this man is very complex, and I'm not sure what he's trying to do. β
Tom nodded, the red-haired one wasn't scary at all, if it hadn't been for the master's stop, Meow would have scratched his paws.
Vivi's focus was not on Tom, she put her hands behind her back and repeated, "Ingredients...... Complex? β
"Well, don't ask, it's a hassle anyway."
When Zhang Da also crossed, there were rumors that Shanks was actually a Tianlong person, so he was so face-saving, but there was no real hammer, and he was not sure whether the rumors were true or not.
It's also unclear whether Shanks' purpose is to push Luffy at the last moment when he becomes king, or if he wants to be the last test that Luffy needs to cross before becoming king, or will he suffer a big loss from Blackbeard to add a layer of anger to Luffy?
"Mr. Tatsuya, I want to go back to the warship and tell Mr. Zefa the news." Kane wasn't sure if Zefa had seen the news and if he would have something to say.
And such a big thing may affect their internship.
Zhang Da also nodded: "Okay, I'll ask Xia Lulu to send you back." β
"Is that okay? That's going to bother her! Kane was a little surprised, the trainees in the training camp all knew that Xia Lulu could switch back and forth between cat form and beautiful girl form, and she could fly, but except for Ain, no one had been taken by Xia Lulu to fly together.
Now that he suddenly heard Zhang Da say the same, Kane was a little surprised, and even the uneasiness just now was diluted a lot.
"It's not troublesome, you don't mind. Xia Lulu, get ready and send Kane back to the warship. Zhang Da also called Xia Lulu out and made a gesture to her.
Xia Lulu tilted her head: "Isn't this okay?" β
Zhang Da also said: "It's okay, Kane said he didn't care." β
Kane smiled and nodded, "yes, I don't care at all. β
"Okay then." Xia Lulu agreed and moved her hands and feet.
Kane was a little puzzled, it didn't seem to take this step when I took Ain Fei last time, because I was heavier than Ain, so I had to warm up?
"Alright, turn around and use the iron." Zhang Da also said to Kane.
"Oh, good, Iron!" Kane subconsciously obeyed the order, "Huh? Why......"
Xia Lulu began to sprint forward, according to the yellow ape's saying 'speed is power', her speed is very fast now, and when she reached behind Kane, Xia Lulu rose into the air and kicked Kane in the back: "Rapid flying kick!" β
"Wow!" Kane slammed his feet, flew out diagonally upwards, and landed on the deck of the warship with a bang, lying flat and doubting life, this way of giving people away seems to be different from what I thought?
"The intensity is good, there is progress." Zhang Da also put his hand on the pergola and looked up at the trajectory of Kane's flying out, and commented, "If you use a little more magic, you should be able to kick him and vomit blood." β
"I was afraid that I would hurt him, so I didn't use much magic." Xia Lulu said, "I don't think he seems to have misunderstood something. β
"It's not a big problem, you can continue to exercise." Zhang Da also continued to look through the newspaper left by Kane.
"There was an armed uprising in Vera, and the king was captured and imprisoned by the rioting citizens!"
Vera was a small country on the Great Voyage and was said to have had frequent riots, sometimes causing great trouble for the royal family, and sometimes being quickly suppressed.
And only this time can the king be captured to this extent. At present, Vera is in the process of establishing a new regime, and there is speculation that there are traces of revolutionary army activity behind this uprising.
Zhang Da also felt that this incident might be an attempt by Dorag, and wanted to slowly explore the plan of action of the revolutionary army. Moreover, some time ago, the revolutionary army absorbed a group of laborers, and after such a long time, it may be necessary to engage in a real battle. Targeting the action in a country where riots are common can make them look less conspicuous.
"Amber Tours' Update!"
Zhang Da also saw reports about them in a less conspicuous place, he didn't expect that he had been honestly staying in the training camp, and he hadn't done anything for almost two months, and he was still hot.
Zhang Da also shook his head: "I feel that if I don't do something this internship, I'm sorry for Morgans' attention." β
β¦β¦
Regarding the matter of the new Four Emperors, Zefa didn't say much, but encouraged the cadets to work harder, the situation on the sea will become more and more complicated in the future, and the navy needs their strength.
In fact, his heart is more or less embarrassed, the red hair is only twenty-eight or nineteen years old this year, this age can defeat the older generation of pirates, how strong it will be in the future is immeasurable.
And how many of the navies of his age can compare with it?
A new era is coming, and he, an old sailor of the old era, may not know when he will retire from the stage of history. But is the new generation of the Navy ready for the next era?
Zefa set his sights on the Amber, which was not far from the warship:
The cat's flag on the top of the mast fluttered in the wind, Rui Mengmeng held dumbbells up and down in the observation room, Shark Pepper took care of the rudder with the chart and confirmed the course, Zhang Daye and Artoria drank tea and ate snacks face to face, Tom picked up the fishing rod to fish, and from time to time took a biscuit from Zhang Daye's dinner plate, where he couldn't see, Jackie Chan should be taking the little girls to practice kung fu, Ye Yan didn't know what strange clothes he had put on.
How nice it would be if they could officially join the Navy......
The warship moved forward without stopping, and the sound of a phone bug rang, interrupting Zefa's thoughts.
"Moxi Moxi, this is the G-2 branch fortress, please cooperate in verifying your identity."
