He’s not my kind. Barzab Seven decided to respect others’ fates and let go of his savior complex.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the Grand Line, great pirates are as numerous as fish crossing a river; finding like-minded crewmates won’t be hard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for immortality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At fifteen, Barzab Seven shouldn’t be considering immortality; it may seem like a blessing, but in his view, it’s an eternal prison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The weight of life lies in the unknown.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Barzab Seven cherishes every thrilling, exhilarating moment of life: setting sail, discovering treasure, outwitting enemies, drinking with comrades.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If life were infinite,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>then every thrill of adventure, every joy of victory, even the relief of narrowly escaping death, would be diluted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eternity would dilute the value of every moment, rendering everything dull and mundane.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alright, Barzab Seven couldn’t keep pretending.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mainly because he’s only fifteen—he should wait until his body matures before even thinking about immortality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, wouldn’t he be a bit... short?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, who can be sure Barzab Seven won’t gain immortality later?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’s a precious plot device.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lord Lei Shen, we can fight too.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>G. Full volunteered eagerly; Barzab Seven was deeply satisfied: “There’ll be plenty of chances for you to fight later.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sending warriors who can’t even use Haki to face a Marine Admiral isn’t bravery.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s suicide.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Better to let them witness firsthand what true high-end power on the Grand Line looks like.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Old Full, take your people farther away.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this time, Kizaru hasn’t yet become a Marine Admiral, and Mihawk hasn’t been crowned the world’s greatest swordsman—but at this level, even the shockwaves of their battle could kill sky islanders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Former Marine Admiral Zephyr once commented on Kizaru: He relies too much on his Devil Fruit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kizaru’s weakness is indeed over-reliance on his fruit, but his strength is that the Gura Gura no Mi has almost no flaws.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fundamentally, the techniques Kizaru uses with his fruit could be developed and mimicked by Barzab Seven—lightning and light share too many similarities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the battlefield, Mihawk grew fiercer with every strike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Kizaru’s rising battle spirit suddenly struck Barzab Seven as profoundly strange—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is the slacker actually getting fired up?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If his partner weren’t Mihawk, Barzab Seven would’ve launched a surprise attack immediately—whether it hit or not didn’t matter; the point was overwhelming odds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Mihawk was different.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mihawk was too proud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Knowing Mihawk’s nature, Barzab Seven respected his choice: one-on-one duel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among the future three Marine Admirals,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aokiji fought Garp on the Hive Island, Akainu battled to the death in the Marineford War, and both fought ten days and nights over the Admiral title.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Kizaru...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During the Marineford War, Akainu was gravely wounded, Aokiji lightly injured, and Kizaru’s robe merely slightly soiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At Sabaody Archipelago, he kept saying “So scary!” and knocked out a Supernova with one kick.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed Kizaru had never truly fought for his life, hence the joke: “Paycheck’s good, Four Emperors get crushed.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, Mihawk was the same.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But at nineteen, Mihawk was likely no match for Kizaru.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Mihawk was thrown back for the third time,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Barzab Seven raised Yume Isshin, wrapped in Conqueror’s Haki, and clashed it against Totsuka no Tsurugi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This strike was all-out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thanks to the idiot from Teyvat, Barzab Seven had the chance to face divine radiance directly, allowing his Conqueror’s Haki to evolve at an absurd speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the Pirate World, Conqueror’s Haki wrapping is the key to becoming a top-tier power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Future master Kaido once said—only Haki can surpass all else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The immense force transmitted through Totsuka no Tsurugi, and the purple blade wrapped in Conqueror’s Haki, shattered Kizaru’s understanding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Conqueror’s Haki wrapping?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kizaru forgot his catchphrase, wishing he could murder the Marine and World Government intelligence system.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What the hell is the Meeting King doing?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A man with monstrous strength, Conqueror’s Haki wrapping, and a top-tier Logia ability—his bounty is barely under 100 million?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kizaru: *******\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Barzab Seven grinned widely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Big Brother, sit down and chat?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aside from Yume Isshin, Conqueror’s Haki wrapping, and innate strength, Barzab Seven truly had nothing else to show against a Marine Admiral.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Better to cut his losses while ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he aroused suspicion, another huge battle would be unavoidable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Barzab Seven and Mihawk together could keep fighting Kizaru for a while, but they shouldn’t fight on the sky island’s territory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sky island land is already extremely scarce—if the battle’s shockwaves severed the island, the loss would be catastrophic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seven currently only wanted to develop in peace: there was no need to fight the Marines to the death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Kizaru was determined to keep fighting, then so be it—he had fought for his life before, over the past fifteen years, through stops and starts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you die, your cock points to heaven;
