Chapter 63: Become a disciple of Zephyr! The demon A Jin personally saves me! (Ch 63)

Uncharted Waters, Frostmoon Island.

A dim and tidy little house stood quietly.

Inside the house, a one-armed old man sat beside a worn wooden table, and under the flickering candlelight, he was carefully mending an old coat with his head down. His face was kind, but his eyes revealed a kind of perseverance that came from having experienced many vicissitudes of life.

“You’re awake, young man.”

The old man looked up at the door, where stood a man who had just woken up. He was in tattered clothes, with a look of confusion and vigilance in his eyes.

It was Ajin who was washed ashore on Shimotsuki Island by the waves the night before. At this moment, he was holding on to the door frame, with confusion and curiosity in his eyes, and he was obviously still adapting to this sudden change.

“Where is this place?”

Ah Jin’s voice was hoarse, and he obviously had not fully recovered from his coma. Just as he was about to ask further, he accidentally caught a glimpse of a corner of the navy cloak on the table, and his eyes instantly became alert:

“You…you’re a marine!”

As he spoke, he suddenly pulled out a rusty dagger from his waist. Although his movements seemed a little unsteady due to his long coma, the vigilance and hostility in his eyes were clearly visible.

However, faced with this sudden hostility, the old man simply smiled and gently pressed down Ajin’s knife arm with his intact hand.

“Relax, young man.”

“Ahem… Ahem… Strictly speaking, I’m probably no longer a marine.”

There was a hint of self-mockery in the old man’s words. He looked away from the dagger in Ajin’s hand and looked out the window at the sea surface caressed by the moonlight:

“You know… you look a lot like one of my former students. If it weren’t for that sudden attack, he might have been an outstanding naval officer now.”

A trace of sadness flashed in the former’s eyes, but he quickly regained his calm.

“But that’s all in the past… Once your injury is healed, get out of here as soon as possible, so I don’t have to change my mind.”

Just as he finished speaking, there was a burst of hurried footsteps outside the door, and then a figure who looked like a ninja broke into the hut, passed by everyone like a gust of wind, and stood directly in front of the old man.

“Teacher Ze…Zefa, the newspaper I just received…”

“It’s nothing more than the movement of the Navy or the World Government after the Battle of Marineford, Binz, why are you so panicked!?”

Zefa waved his hand gently: “Put it aside for now, I will look at it later.”

“No, teacher. There’s news in the newspaper about…that guy!”

The ninja called Binz looked pale, and the newspaper in his hand trembled slightly:

“You should take a look for yourself, teacher.”

He handed the newspaper to the former and pointed at a piece of news in the newspaper. The headline read:

“The new Shichibukai members have been confirmed, Whitebeard II Edward Weeble has officially joined, and the sea situation has changed again!”

“How…how could this happen!?”

Zefa, who had never shown his emotions, shook almost instinctively after seeing the news in the newspaper. His eyes went dark and he almost fainted.

“This bastard… has even joined the ranks of the Seven Warlords of the Sea!”

He laughed loudly, but tears fell unconsciously:

What does the blood of the navy and innocent civilians who have sacrificed their lives over the years count for? In the end, they are just pawns in the game of power of the world government! “

Zefa’s voice became hoarse with anger and despair, and his fists were clenched tightly, as if he was enduring endless pain in his heart:

“Since justice has been tainted, let’s destroy it together!”

As he spoke, a strong murderous intent emanated from his body, but before it lasted for a moment, a violent explosion suddenly sounded, and the entire hut was instantly blown to pieces, with smoke and wood chips flying everywhere like a violent storm.

“Did it work!?”

In the smoke and dust, a tall figure in a black suit, with his face hidden in the shadows, slowly walked out:

“No. LP0004, Chief Instructor Zephyr of the Navy. Since you left the Navy Headquarters privately and made inappropriate remarks, on behalf of the World Government, I hereby declare you sentenced to death!”

“Don’t take it lightly before you see his body…Maha.”

Another man in a gray windbreaker and a white mask walked out from the darkness:

“The new officer who was promoted from CP9 is said to be difficult to talk to. We must not mess it up.”

“That’s explosives made of explosive rock mixed with power-dispersing flowers. Even a strong admiral-level warrior can’t easily resist it.” The former responded coldly.

However, when the smoke and dust gradually dissipated, Zefa’s figure did not fall down as they thought. He staggered to his feet from the ruins, his clothes torn and his skin scratched by the aftermath of the explosion, but his eyes were still as bright as torches.

“Did you just say… Exploding Rock?!”

Zefa grinned, “So you must know where this thing is hidden?”

“I was worried that I couldn’t find any clues, but I didn’t expect it to be delivered to my door.”

“I didn’t expect you to be right, Guernica. This guy is still alive…”

Maha shook his arm, and the steel knife popped out instantly. He sneered with disdain: “But he still doesn’t seem to understand the situation. Does he really think we only have one plan?”

“shave!”

As he hummed, the air trembled suddenly, and Maha’s figure flashed away. When he appeared again, the blade had pierced deeply into Zefa’s side, and blood gushed out like a fountain.

“Teacher Zefa!”

Binz, who had just woken up, cried out in surprise. He was about to rush forward to help, but his feet suddenly weakened and he fell to the ground helplessly.

“My body…I have no strength at all!”

“You still don’t understand the situation? That’s not ordinary explosives.”

Guernica stepped out from the shadows, his tone teasing:

“The powder of San Gong Hua can temporarily block a person’s strength and muscle reaction. This is specially prepared to deal with you. It tastes good, right?”

“Okay, stop talking nonsense. This island is full of their people. We can’t delay any longer.”

Maha pulled out the bloody steel knife and stabbed at Zefa again.

However, just before the blade was about to touch Zefa, a big hand grasped the blade tightly like a pair of pliers, and blood flowed along the back of the blade.

“It’s such a coincidence that I owe someone a favor again.”

At some point, Ajin had stood beside Zefa. He held Maha’s blade tightly, and his eyes revealed an unprecedented firmness:

“Whether it’s Chief Creek, the cook, Captain Buggy, or this old man, as long as they have helped me, I will definitely repay them!

“Ghosts fight!”

With a roar, Ajin’s body suddenly accelerated, and a series of fist shadows tore the surrounding air with a hissing sound, and went straight towards Maha and Guernica.

“Iron!”

However, facing the former’s sudden and fierce attack, Maha did not show any panic.

He did not move, but just shouted loudly, and a layer of black hard film instantly covered the surface of his body, like an indestructible iron wall, which bounced off Ajin’s fists one by one.

“Although I don’t know why you weren’t poisoned, your strength alone is far from enough!”

Maha sneered, then jumped up suddenly, and with the sword shadows crossing, he cut Ajin’s chest into pieces. Then, his body was thrown away like a rag, hit the wall heavily, and slid to the ground, motionless.

“That’s it.”

Maha put away his knife and stood up, just as he was about to go forward to kill Zefa, his feet were tightly entangled by Ajin’s bloody hands…

“Since you want to die so badly, I’ll grant your wish!”

He shouted angrily and tried to draw his knife again, but suddenly his vision went dark, his body suddenly shrank, and he staggered back a few steps involuntarily, and the steel knife fell to the ground.

“Teacher Zephyr…are you okay?”

A childish voice sounded behind Maha, and then a blue-haired woman threw a huge mechanical arm and a bottle of blue potion forward.

“Ain, you’re just in time.”

Zefa slowly stood up, installed the received mechanical arm on his right arm, and then drank the blue potion without hesitation.

“It’s perfect for you to try out this upgraded crushing arm!”

He looked at the two slightly panicked figures in front of him, his eyes flashing with coldness:

“Smash the bunt!”

With a roar from Zefa, his mechanical right arm swung out suddenly, bringing with it a powerful energy wave, instantly enveloping Maha and Guernica who were trying to dodge.

Then, accompanied by a deafening explosion, the two were completely engulfed by the powerful energy wave released by Zefa’s mechanical right arm. Dust and debris flew everywhere, and the whole scene seemed to be shaken by a small earthquake.

“Ain, Binz, take these two away, remember don’t let them die…”

When the smoke cleared, Zefa stood on the ruins, looking at the bloody Ajin, and lit a cigar for himself:

“As for this brat who doesn’t even know how to use Haki, let me teach him a lesson for now!”

He grinned and slowly exhaled a wisp of smoke:

“It’s very handsome for a man to stick to his beliefs throughout his life!”

As he spoke, Zefa picked up Ajin and turned to walk towards the dense forest behind the hut:

“Oh, remember one thing!”

“Zeff is dead, from now on I will be called Z!”
