Pirates: The biggest scum in naval history

Matters regarding the selection of the King's Shichibukai...

While walking on the way to the Marshal's Mansion, Darren was lost in thought.

Although he had made corresponding arrangements in advance, he was not completely sure whether the candidate he selected would be included in the government's final list.

After all, the final decision on the King's Shichibukai still lies in the hands of the World Government.

'I just don't know what's going on with Fisher Tiger...'

Darren frowned and lit a cigar.

How is Magellan doing now?

At this time, Zefa, who was walking in front, suddenly asked.

Darren was stunned, came back to his senses, and said with a smile:

Very good, that guy just has a weird personality, but considering the specialness and weirdness of the poisonous fruit, this is understandable.

But in terms of talent and potential, Magellan is definitely no less than Kuzan and me.

Zefa nodded with satisfaction.

That kid Kuzan is growing up very fast... He has become the mainstay of our navy in the blink of an eye. It feels like it was just yesterday that he joined the training camp.

When he said the last sentence, Zefa's eyes clearly flashed with emotion, and his soft and mellow smile slowly flowed.

He gave up his ideal of conquering pirates a long time ago and made it his mission to train outstanding students.

For Zefa, the chief instructor of the military academy, there is nothing more proud and proud than watching the disciples he has trained grow into an excellent navy.

But, Darren boy, are you sure that...well, inhaling a large dose of Magellan's poisonous gas will not cause problems to your body?

Zefa seemed to have remembered something, turned to look at Darren, and asked with some confusion:

If it doesn't work, you'd better go to the military hospital or the Science and Technology Corps for a checkup.

Polusalino has achieved certain results in deconstructing Magellan's toxin, and a special antidote has been successfully developed. Even if there are any problems, they can be solved in time.

He pursed his lips.

Don't try too hard, there will be no consequences in the end.

Hearing the concern in Zefa's words, a warm current surged through Darren's heart, and he smiled and said:

Teacher Zefa, don't worry, there will be no problem.

He didn't want to lie on the experimental bed while that wretched guy from Porusalino touched his chin while examining him, and then pretended to be surprised and said, It's so scary.

When he thought of that scene, he couldn't help but shudder, feeling a little chilly.

I will continue to watch over Magellan, but I always feel that that kid is retaining something.

Oh? Zefa raised his eyebrows, What do you mean?

Darren pondered for a moment, frowned and said:

How should I put it? I always feel that with his talents and talents, his development of Devil Fruit abilities will not progress so slowly.

Zefa:......

He was speechless for a while, and the corners of his mouth twitched unconsciously.

Is this still slow?

Magellan's toxin was so powerful that after two months of special training, it had reached a level that even a former navy admiral would not dare to contract it casually.

It can even be seen from the corrosion level of the buildings in the isolation area that Magellan's poison has gradually begun to condense and compress from a gaseous state into a mist state, and it is estimated that it will not be long before it can be further concentrated into a liquid state.

Seeing Darren's serious expression, he didn't feel comfortable complaining, so he could only sigh silently in his heart:

Sure enough, the monster looks at things differently from others.

People and their constitutions cannot be generalized.

Zefa became a little discouraged when he thought that the brat Darren in front of him already possessed the terrifying combat power of a navy admiral at the age of 22, while he was only promoted to a navy admiral at the age of 38.

So Darren boy, what do you mean...

Darren exhaled a stream of smoke and muttered:

I feel like Magellan was suppressing his potential.

Hearing this, Zefa fell into silence.

After a long while, he shook his head with a wry smile and sighed:

...What a kind boy.

No one wants to become stronger.

This is human ego instinct.

Especially for natural monsters like Magellan, Kuzan, and Sakaski, this instinct engraved in their genes will be extremely strong.

But Magellan was trying hard to suppress his potential and his instinct to become stronger. There was only one reason.

——He is afraid that his ability will become stronger and stronger, until he can no longer control it, and will eventually hurt or even kill those around him.

I'll talk to him later.

Darren said something and stopped.

The central military fortress stood majestically and solemnly in front of them. On the towering gray-black city wall, the two big black characters Justice were flying and phoenixes were flying, creating a chilling momentum.

The Marshal's Mansion has arrived.

Under the leadership of the guards, Darren and Zefa climbed the stairs and soon arrived at the highest military conference room.

Report to Marshal Kong that Mr. Zefa and Lieutenant General Darren have arrived.

The guard knocked on the door gently, and after receiving a response, he pushed the door open and entered.

coming.

On the main seat of the long oval conference table, Navy Marshal Steel Bone was sitting there as if he was standing straight. His upper body was naked, revealing his explosive bronze muscles. He was wearing a marshal's cape, and his temperament was cold and hard, as motionless as a mountain.

Seeing Daren and Zefa walking into the conference room, a smile appeared on his face and motioned for the two to sit down.

Darren gave a military salute and noticed that all other senior headquarters officials were present.

Of course, there is no need to say more about the three naval veterans, the Warring States General, the Crane Staff, and the nostril-picking Garp.

Sakaski, arms crossed and expressionless;

Porusalino picks his nails as if no one else is around;

And Kuzan, who kept waving at him with excitement on his face...

In addition, a group of headquarters lieutenant generals were also present, and Darren also saw the figures of the Golden Generation such as Gion, Kaki, Huoshaoshan, Dauberman and Ghost Spider in the auditorium, and their expressions were with distinction.

This should be their first time to participate in such a high-level military meeting, so everyone did not dare to be distracted, kept their eyes and noses in mind, and sat upright.

As for the main agenda of this meeting, I believe that all colleagues here are already roughly aware of it.

Seeing Darren and Zefa sitting down, Cyborg cleared his throat and said in a rich voice:

The concept of the King's Shichibukai system... has caused a lot of discussion within our navy and even around the world since its launch.

Some people believe that the establishment of the Shichibukai system can relieve some of the pressure on our navy to fight against pirates, and recruit powerful pirates as help to achieve the effect of deterring or even weakening other big pirates;

There are also people who believe that the Shichibukai under the King is purely a regression of the power of justice, a surrender and concession. The existence of the Shichibukai has seriously damaged the reputation and majesty of our navy;

Following Cyborg Kong's two words, Darren noticed that the generals present had different personalities.

but!

Cyborg's empty talk suddenly became serious.

From today on, I don't want to hear arguments like these again!

As he spoke, he gestured to Warring States with his eyes.

Warring States nodded, took out a stack of documents, and asked the messenger to distribute them to the many generals present.

The establishment of the King's Shichibukai system is imperative. As a law enforcement agency under the World Government, our navy must support the government's decision as much as possible instead of raising questions and arguments.

Cyborg Kong then said in a deep voice:

Although the process was full of twists and turns, and there was even a nasty incident in which a Shichibukai candidate was hunted down, well, I would like to express my praise for Lieutenant General Darren's investigative work...

He nodded to Darren, who smiled back.

But after a series of investigations and screenings, most of the official candidates for the King's Shichibukai have been initially determined.

As the sealed documents were distributed to the generals one after another, Gang Gukong intertwined his fingers and said with a solemn look:

What you are holding in your hands is the final list of the King's Shichibukai.
