Chapter 244: Zephyr's Last Lesson!
"Let me go!"
"I want to go back! My teacher is there! I want to die with my teacher!"
"Shut up!"
Ace didn't look back, his feet barely touching the ground as he dragged her along at breakneck speed.
"Don't let him die in vain!"
Luffy is running in the lead!
Binz followed behind, turning back every few steps. His face was streaked with snot and tears. He gazed into the distance, watching the figure disappear into the distance, swallowed by the navy.
further and further.
"Let's go!"
Zoro brought up the rear of the group, his three swords already sheathed, but one hand remained on the hilt. His eyes were alert, scanning for any potential pursuers.
The group sprinted towards the port at full speed.
Hundreds of meters.
One kilometer.
The distance is widening.
In the distance, the cannons of several warships began to turn. The dark barrels were aimed at the group of desperados.
On the mountaintop.
Chen Ye stood on the edge of the cliff, his hands in his pockets.
"That's about it."
Chen Ye suddenly spoke.
"Aokiji".
Chen Ye turned his head to the side and twitched the corner of his mouth.
"Give them a hand."
Kuzan looked down at Luffy and his crew rushing below, then at the old man facing a massive army alone.
"what……"
Kuzan let out a long sigh.
White, cold air emanated from his mouth, instantly turning to frost.
"What an unreasonable order."
He raised his right hand.
The movements were very gentle.
very slow.
Facing the direction Luffy and his crew fled.
Facing the ice that was about to be covered by artillery fire.
He waved his hand gently.
"The Ice Age".
On the battlefield.
Luffy and his crew had only run a few hundred meters.
"Boom!"
The earth suddenly trembled.
"What's going on? Is it an earthquake?"
Usopp screamed in fright and almost fell over.
"No."
Zoro stopped abruptly, his pupils shrinking sharply.
"Look behind you!"
Everyone turned around.
Behind them, between them and the naval fleet.
An ice wall.
It rose up from the ground.
An insurmountable barrier.
It instantly stood between the crowd.
They blocked the artillery fire.
It completely cut off the battlefield.
"This is……"
Only one possesses such powerful freezing abilities!
"Aokiji..."
Robin looked at the ice wall and whispered the name.
On the other side of the ice wall.
Zefa stood there all alone.
The loud noise behind him made him turn around.
The towering ice wall reflected in his cloudy eyes.
He looked at the familiar ice block, at the extreme cold.
"Kuzan..."
Zefa muttered to himself.
"That damned Kuzan!"
Zefa roared.
He cursed.
Roaring.
But as he continued cursing, a smile crept across his face.
That smile held both satisfaction and gratitude.
This wall.
They cut off his escape route.
This also cut off Luffy and his pursuers.
"Hmph, that wretched Kuzan."
Zefa turned around.
No longer looking behind them.
Before him stretched a vast expanse of naval forces.
That was the navy to which he dedicated his life.
And those generals at the very front.
Ghost Spider, Doberman, Storobelli, Fire Mountain, Flying Squirrel.
Familiar faces.
One by one, elite naval personnel who once trembled under his fists and grew up under his tutelage.
They were all his students.
"Is this the final moment?"
But he was better than ever before.
"Z," who wanted to destroy the world, is dead.
The person standing here now.
He is the former Navy Admiral, "Black Arm" Zephyr.
"Hahahaha!"
Zefa suddenly threw his head back and burst into laughter.
The laughter was hearty and resounded through the wind and snow, echoing across the battlefield.
He raised his arms, and jet-black Armament Haki instantly covered his entire arms, gleaming with a metallic light.
Then Zefa shouted loudly.
"What are you all standing there for? Draw your swords!"
The naval camp was deathly silent.
The lieutenant generals gripped their sword hilts, their fingers turning white, but none of them dared to move.
That's their teacher.
"What? You don't even have the courage to draw your sword against the enemy?"
Zefa's eyes widened in anger, his aura rising steadily, like an old lion in its twilight years.
"Since you dare not move..."
"Then let the teacher give you one last lesson!"
boom!
The ice beneath their feet shattered instantly.
He was like a black cannonball, plunging headlong into the navy's ranks.
one person.
Charge into battle with ten thousand troops.
boom! boom! boom!
Zefa charged into the crowd, his left fist flashing, creating a gust of wind.
With each punch, several naval soldiers were sent flying.
Screams filled the air.
Only knock down.
It does not cause harm.
"Too slow!"
Zefa punched a colonel who had launched a sneak attack, sending him flying, and shouted a reprimand.
"Unsteady footwork! Unstable stance! Have you been slacking off in training?!"
boom!
He kicked another major who was holding a gun, sending him flying.
"What are you hesitating for! Hesitation on the battlefield means death! Be decisive when you fire!"
He looked like he was in battle.
It's more like giving instructions.
Back then, he was the same way, beating up these greenhorns while cursing and teaching them how to survive.
But back then...
He is the head instructor.
They were new recruits.
And now.
He is an enemy of the world.
"Everyone, perk up!"
Zefa roared as he rampaged through the crowd.
Ordinary soldiers were no match for him.
In the blink of an eye, a large number of people around him collapsed.
Just then.
hum!
A blinding golden light appeared before him without warning.
The light gathered.
A light-speed kick swept across.
It carried a powerful aura.
"Speed is weight..."
"Have you ever been kicked by light, Mr. Zephyr?"
Zefa's pupils contracted.
Borsalino.
"drink!"
Zefa didn't have time to dodge.
He could only raise his left arm and unleash his Armament Haki to its fullest extent to take the blow head-on.
boom--!
A terrifying shockwave exploded.
The surrounding naval soldiers were blown away like falling leaves.
Zefa's feet carved two deep furrows in the ice, and he slid for dozens of meters before coming to a stop.
"Cough cough..."
Zefa coughed up a mouthful of blood.
His left arm trembled slightly, and his domineering aura began to crumble.
But he still stood ramrod straight.
"The same as always, Borsalino."
Zefa wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and grinned.
"They only rely on the Glint-Glint Fruit and haven't improved their physical skills at all."
Kizaru stood not far away.
Hands in pockets, wearing a coat of justice.
His eyes were obscured behind the gold sunglasses.
"Oh dear, how scary!"
Kizaru pouted, his tone still flippant.
"At a time like this, do you still need to lecture me, Professor Zephyr?"
"but……"
Kizaru changed the subject, gently lifting his finger.
"How many moves can you withstand now?"
call out!call out!call out!
Several laser beams shot out from his fingertips, heading straight for Zefa.
Zephyr dodged to the side, but his movement was a beat too slow.
laugh!
A laser beam grazed his shoulder, sending up a cloud of blood mist.
"teacher!"
A gasp of surprise rang out.
It's a ghost spider.
He subconsciously took a step forward, the knife in his hand seemingly wanting to be drawn, but then froze in mid-air.
在他身边。
Doberman, Stolberg, Fire Mountain.
These are naval vice admirals who are usually decisive and ruthless, and never show mercy to vicious pirates.
At this moment, they resemble a group of children who have done something wrong.
They assumed a fighting stance.
but.
Looking at the old man covered in blood, yet still lecturing them.
Looking at their mentor who once taught them how to hold a knife, instilled in them a domineering spirit, and bandaged their wounds when they were injured.
My body just can't move forward!
The hand holding the knife was trembling violently.
"Get started!"
Zefa looked at them and roared loudly.
"Should we hold back when dealing with the enemy?!"
"Is this the justice I taught you?!"
"Don't make me look down on you!"
Faced with Zefa's angry outburst.
Lieutenant Generals.
They both closed their eyes, and two lines of clear tears slid down their cheeks.
"I'm sorry... teacher..."
"We...can't do it."
No one made a move.
"Since they're not making a move..."
Kizaru's voice rang out again.
This shattered that warmth.
"Then I'll have to be the bad guy."
Swish!
Kizaru's figure disappeared from the spot.
next second.
He appeared behind Zephyr.
"The Kusanagi Sword".
A lightsaber condensed from photons appeared in Kizaru's hand.
It came crashing down on his head.
Zephyr suddenly turned around, and the black wristband was on display.
clang!
The lightsaber clashed with the black wrist, sparks flying.
The battlefield remains a one-on-one duel between Zephyr and Kizaru.
boom!
Kizaru kicked Zephyr in the stomach.
Zefa grunted and flew backward.
laugh!
Before he even landed, a laser pierced through his thigh.
Blood stained the ice surface.
Zefa staggered to his feet.
Huff... Huff...
Every breath was accompanied by excruciating pain.
His body was covered in laser-pierced wounds, charred black.
The movements are getting slower and slower.
My vision started to blur.
"it's over."
Kizaru stood in front of him, looking down at him.
The mockery on his face disappeared.
All that remained was a cold, lifeless expanse.
"Teacher Zephyr."
"You're tired."
"Take a break."
Kizaru slowly raised his right hand.
At the tip of the index finger, blinding golden light was gathering wildly.
This strike.
It was aimed at Zefa's heart.
Zefa looked at the light.
He didn't hide.
There's no escaping it now.
He straightened his back and tried to open his eyes wide.
Even in death.
He wanted to die standing up too.
"Come on, Borsalino!"
"To see me off on my final journey!"
Kizaru's fingers trembled slightly.
Farewell.
"teacher."
hum!
A deadly laser beam erupted.
On the mountaintop.
Chen Ye watched this scene unfold.
The deadly golden light was reflected in his eyes.
"The time has come."
Chen Ye said softly.
"Make your move."
The blue pheasant beside me.
It has long since disappeared.
