Chapter 118

New World G-5 Branch.

Vergo received a reply from the Marine Headquarters.

At the same time, there was intelligence about Zephyr's whereabouts gathered by Marine scouts all over the world.

Vergo was overjoyed when he saw it and immediately summoned his Marine subordinates, mobilized all the G-5 warships, and prepared to capture former Admiral "Black Arm" Zephyr.

Smoker was also among those summoned.

Hearing that it was to capture Teacher Zephyr, Smoker was shocked.

He wanted to say something, but in the end, he held back.

On one hand,

even if he raised any objections, Vergo, this strong and overbearing base commander, wouldn't pay attention to him.

On the other hand,

Teacher Zephyr had already defected from the Marines and wanted to destroy the whole world; Smoker didn't even know what reason to use to plead for Teacher Zephyr.

The team was reorganized, three warships set sail,

and the entire G-5 branch, led by Vergo, set off in a mighty force.

Tashigi saw that Smoker was in a depressed mood and asked with concern:

"Is Brigadier General Smoker still angry because of Base Commander Vergo?"

Yesterday,

in front of so many G-5 Marines, Smoker was instantly defeated by Vergo, losing all his face.

If it were anyone else, they wouldn't feel good, let alone someone as arrogant as Smoker.

Smoker shook his head:

"The weak submit to the strong; if you lose, you lose; there's nothing to be angry about. I came to the New World to temper my own strength."

Tashigi asked in confusion: "Then why is Smoker..."

Before she could finish, she was interrupted by Smoker:

"Tashigi, which teacher taught you your swordsmanship?"

Tashigi held the famous sword Shigure at her waist like a treasure.

Her dream was to collect all the famous swords in the world that were held by pirates.

Tashigi said: "It was taught by an old senior in the Marines."

"Yes, most of our skills were taught by seniors in the Marines."

Smoker looked at the distant sea, and his fist suddenly clenched.

"But one day, our superiors disregarded the feelings of the old senior and insisted on letting the old senior's enemy join the Marine camp. Tashigi, do you think it's ridiculous or not?"

Tashigi's eyes widened in disbelief:

"Why would our superiors do this?"

"Because they are all a bunch of bastards!" Smoker clenched his fists tightly, hammered the railing fiercely, and let out a low roar, "This is the World Government we serve!"

Tashigi's mind was shaken.

Simple-minded, she had always believed that the Marines and the World Government were justice, and pirates were evil.

She never expected that the World Government could be so hateful?

Even more of a bastard than pirates!

Before Vergo took action, he naturally made a secret call to Luo Xing.

After Luo Xing received the news, he immediately set off from Wano Country.

This time Luo Xing didn't hide his appearance and whereabouts, and of course, he wasn't too flashy.

One reason was that very few people in the outside world knew his true face.

The second was that after cultivating in the Intermediate Time Gravity Room, Luo Xing's Haki and strength had reached a higher level.

As long as he wasn't besieged by more than two Four Emperor/Admiral-level powerhouses, Luo Xing could calmly escape.

Moreover,

standing behind him was a burly bodyguard over ten meters tall, none other than "Drought" Jack.

Luo Xing hadn't brought Jack with him when he went to the Sky Island, Dressrosa, Thriller Bark, and other places before.

Now that he was the Young Master of the Beasts Pirates, he couldn't be unfair.

This time, he brought "Drought" Jack along.

Jack was overjoyed; he could finally take the lead and be the vanguard again, feeling full of energy all over.

Luo Xing looked at the excited Jack and smiled:

"The opponent this time is a former Marine Admiral; even if you ate the Dragon-level monster cell and your fruit ability evolved from Ancient Zoan to Mythical Zoan, you might not necessarily be able to win."

Jack didn't care at all and said in a muffled voice:

"Let's get the ship close first; I'll engage him in close-quarters combat!"

To be honest.

In terms of close-quarters combat, in the current Beasts Pirates, besides his father-in-law Kaido, even King and Queen were not Jack's opponents.

Because the Dragon-level monster cell had improved Jack's defense too much; he could even take a bath in Akainu's magma.

You know,

magma is already the most powerful attack method in the One Piece world.

Jack could actually rely on his body to withstand it for a period of time; it was terrifying!

Furthermore,

even if Jack's defense was broken and he was injured, the powerful recovery ability granted by the Mythical Zoan fruit could allow him to recover in a short time.

In other words,

Jack was now a high-defense and high-health meat warrior; even if he couldn't beat the enemy, he could drag the enemy to death.

Former Admiral "Black Arm" Zephyr was powerful, but he was old after all; if he fought a war of attrition with Jack, defeat was only a matter of time.

Not to mention that Vergo's Marines were also present.

Therefore, Luo Xing wasn't worried about failure in this operation, and he didn't even intend to make a move himself.

He was just a scientist with no strength; let the people below handle the killing.

One day later.

Luo Xing and "Drought" Jack arrived at a strange island made entirely of red rocks.

111. "Black Arm" Zephyr's ruthless justice, Vergo's scheme, Luo Xing appears

The reason why the rocks on this island were all red was that they were all volcanic rocks.

Below the island, there was even an active volcanic channel.

Zephyr's goal was to open the volcanic channel, connect the veins of the three Endpoints, and ultimately cause the submarine volcano to erupt completely, destroying the entire New World.

Luo Xing activated his Observation Haki and soon sensed the location of "Black Arm" Zephyr.

He didn't show himself, but took Jack, jumped onto a small hill, and looked down at the coast from a distance.

On the coast.

The Neo Marines led by "Black Arm" Zephyr had arrived at this island before Luo Xing.

But before they could take action, they were caught up by the G-5 branch led by Vergo.

Zephyr looked gloomily at the three warships slowly sailing toward him on the sea.

Once upon a time, he was also one of the people on those ships.

But the extremely hypocritical actions of the World Government had completely broken his heart.

What kind of bullshit justice was that, accepting heinous pirates as Warlords of the Sea!

What was the use of such justice!

Ridiculous! Hypocritical! Shameless!

Zephyr completely abandoned the beliefs he had held for decades and reconstructed the meaning of the word justice.

He wanted to practice true justice in his own way!

The G-5 warships slowly approached.

Zephyr saw Vergo standing at the very front of the warship, raised his right mechanical arm, and sneered:
