Chapter 703: Let Him Be the Kindergarten Principal!
Crisis!
Big crisis!
Admiral (Air Force Headquarters) 'Kizaru' was actually attracted by the Peerage of Third-Class Viscount, preparing to retire, oh no, it should be to Retire and become a comfortable Noble Lord!
"Are you serious, Borsalino?"
In the Fleet Admiral's Office of Air Force Headquarters: Elbaf, Zephyr looked at the 'Retirement Application' on the table with a Black Line, the Veins on his forehead visibly bulging out.
When he raised his Head to look at Borsalino standing in front of him, his cold Gaze flickered with Flames ignited by Anger.
However.
Borsalino crooked his Corner of Mouth, as if not feeling the Killing Intent on Teacher Zephyr, first chuckled lowly: "Teacher Zephyr, you look so scary right now~"
Then, with Hands in his pockets, he lazily looked up at the ceiling.
"Look, the Treatment for Nobility is so good. Not only are there large Territories, but they also give enough Money every year. So why should I stay here fighting for my Life?"
When he first joined the Marines, he hoped to find a stable Environment and live a relatively superior Life.
As for Danger, with his Talent and Glint-Glint Fruit Ability, even if he encountered an Opponent he couldn't beat, he could definitely run away if he wanted to.
But now, as the Star Gates continue to open, Borsalino realized that the Future Wars would definitely become more and more dangerous, the Opponents would also become more and more terrifying, and he himself would definitely become busier and busier.
Coincidentally, this time's 'Twenty-Level Military Merit Peerage System' made him feel like he had an extra Choice.
With his current Strength, wouldn't it be nice to just stay honestly on the Sea Star Mainland and be a not-too-big, not-too-small Noble Lord?
"..."
Zephyr was completely speechless. Although his Hands were clenched tightly into Fists, he opened his Mouth and found he couldn't say anything.
What Reason did he have to Require the other party to stay?
There was no Method.
He chose to ignore Borsalino for now, picked up the Den Den Mushi directly and called Marine Headquarters. Then, in front of the latter, he Roared into the Handset.
"Sengoku!"
"That Bastard Borsalino is preparing to exchange all his Military Merit for a Third-Class Viscount Peerage, and then Retire to become a Noble Lord!!"
Borsalino was also stunned when he saw Zephyr's actions.
He applied for Retirement, so why are you calling Fleet Admiral Sengoku?
"What!!!"
As expected, that Den Den Mushi immediately turned into Sengoku's Rampage appearance: "Borsalino, what the hell are you thinking in your Head?"
"One of the World Government's Highest Combat Power, actually captivated by a mere Third-Class Viscount?"
"Immediately dismiss that Idea now!"
"Otherwise, This Old Man will go with Garp to have a chat with you!"
Borsalino's Expression froze there. It was his turn to look at the Den Den Mushi constantly Roaring with a Black Line. He had thought before that doing this would cause a certain Ripple.
He just really didn't expect Fleet Admiral Sengoku to actually plan to come find him with Admiral Garp...
What did they want to do?
To prevent him from Retiring, would they beat him to Death on the spot?
[Click!]
At this moment, the Den Den Mushi hung up by itself. It was clearly Sengoku who hung up actively. So why did he hang up? What was he preparing to do next?
Borsalino felt that the Matter was developing in a Direction he didn't quite Hope for.
But unexpectedly, Zephyr turned the dial on the Den Den Mushi a few more times, which immediately made cold sweat break out on his forehead. He quickly spoke, wanting to stop him.
"Uh, Teacher Zephyr..."
But Zephyr ignored him. After the call connected, he Roared loudly again: "Hey! Sakazuki?! That Bastard Borsalino is preparing to Retire and become a Viscount Lord!"
The other side paused for a few breaths, seemingly digesting the News.
"I'll be right there. Please tell Borsalino to wait for me."
After speaking, Sakazuki hung up the Den Den Mushi directly. Borsalino's Corner of Mouth twitched. After thinking for a moment, he turned around and was about to leave this terrifying Office.
"Where are you going?"
Zephyr raised an eyebrow and said: "You should know that This Old Man does not have the Qualification to approve an Admiral's Retirement Application. This needs to be reported to the Five Elders."
"Of course, This Old Man will not let this Application be sent out!"
"Cough cough, it's a bit stifling in here. I'm going out for some fresh air..."
"Absolutely not!"
Zephyr coldly snorted: "You know the Rules that Headquarters must have an Admiral on duty. Stay put honestly and have a good chat with them later!"
Borsalino regretted it. His face, which looked somewhat shifty, was filled with Fear. He realized that his momentary Idea seemed to have stirred up a big mess...
Evening.
Inside Noah's Ark, Im finished reading the Report on the 'Borsalino Retirement Application Incident' with a Black Line.
Fortunately.
Borsalino finally, after being patiently persuaded for over five hours by Sengoku, Garp, Sakazuki, and Enel (who was somehow involved), was convinced and gave up his immature Idea of Retiring.
It's just unknown why.
A certain Nameless Small Sky Island near Air Force Headquarters suddenly disappeared, leaving the Cipher Pol who went to Investigate completely baffled...
"This Kizaru is quite amusing. But if he really needs to Retire someday, I'll let him be the Kindergarten Principal at Academy City~"
Im chuckled lightly.
Immediately, he started picking up other Report Documents to read. As for Stussy, she had already gone to the Imperial Arms World to help Kaido's Air Fleet bring back those Aerospace Carriers and various Flying Warships.
There was no Method.
Although Capone Bege's Castle-Castle Fruit is extremely Efficient in transporting Army Units, it cannot load things like Warships inside the body.
"Has Shiki's Head finally been cured at the Medical Academy?"
Im looked at the Content on this Document, and his mood improved slightly, because this meant he had another Admiral Level Combat Power among his subordinates.
Actually, he had considered before having someone bring Shiki here, and then using his Op-Op Fruit Ability to quickly pull out the Ship Rudder in his Head.
But in the end, he didn't do that.
He Hoped that through a relatively long treatment process, Shiki would deeply remember the Things the World Government had done for him.
Some Things, if too easy, make people not care much.
Of course.
A Pirate like Shiki, down to his bones, is unlikely to be someone who repays kindness. However, if it can make him slightly more well-behaved, it's worth it.
Looking again at Shiki's Choice of Opponent for the 'Summit War' he was preparing to Challenge in February.
Garp!
This Choice isn't necessarily wrong. After all, the Feeling 'Whitebeard' Edward Newgate gives off is indeed a bit Stronger than Garp.
"But the current Garp has also become Stronger..."
After finishing, Im put the Document aside. For him, it made no difference whether Shiki could beat Garp or not.
At most, if Shiki's Challenge fails, it will keep him in the Admiral Position for a while. With the Strength of this 'Golden Lion', he will eventually become an Admiral at Air Force Headquarters.
"Hmm?!"
"Kuzan can use Esdeath's 'Maha Padoma' even before drinking the 'Crimson Lotus Blood'?"
Im raised an eyebrow.
This is equivalent to directly raising the Upper Limit of Devil Fruits.
Then can his own Ability also imitate Abilities of the same Attribute from Other Worlds?
"It's just unknown if he must have been in contact with it first, or if it can be achieved through Imagination and practice. And if so, Other Devil Fruit Abilities of the same Attribute should also be able to be Developed."
Im gazed at the rotating Air Current that had appeared on his palm at some point and softly murmured a word.
"Domain..."
