One Piece: Arrival on Sky Island at the beginning

Malinfando, Navy Headquarters.

In the huge square, there were countless whispers among the navy.

"Hey, have you heard?"

"What did you hear?"

"Teacher Zefa, he betrayed the Navy and joined the Rainbow Kingdom!"

"Hey, are you kidding? How is that possible, Mr. Zefa!"

"I know it too, but someone has seen it with their own eyes. Teacher Zefa and Fire Dragon Ye Mu are together. There is also news from the branch. Teacher Zefa has indeed left the navy and entrusted Distribution to uniform his former navy admiral. and military ranks were sent over."

"No way, Teacher Lian Zefa, does the Navy really want to..."

The soldier was scolded before he finished his last words, but a pessimistic atmosphere pervaded the entire naval headquarters.

And inside the Navy Building.

The atmosphere in Marshal Warring States' office was extremely gloomy at this moment.

All the top brass within the Navy gathered together.

"Have you not contacted Zefa yet?"

Even though he had received the news from the branch, Warring States still couldn't believe that his old friend actually betrayed the navy.

He would rather believe that Zefa was threatened by the fire dragon Ye Mu, so he tried every means to contact Zefa.

Not only to confirm the truth, but also to get an answer.

Because this matter was of great importance, He, as a lieutenant general, took personal responsibility for this matter.

At this moment, He, who was 74 years old, with a stooped body and white hair and beard, looked like an old lady, also said with a low expression.

"It's a pity! Zefa has completely severed contact with the navy, and according to witnesses on the sea, Zefa did not seem to be under coercion. Instead, he had a very happy conversation with the fire dragon Ye Mu."

"impossible......"

In an instant, the Warring States Hammer swung and the desk in front of him shattered.

"How could Zefa..."

"Calm down, Warring States. Even if you don't want to accept it, you have no choice but to accept it now. If you are really being coerced, Zefa will not take his two disciples with him."

Everyone knows that Ain and Binz are the two favorites among Zefa's current disciples.

If there is really danger, Zefa will definitely try his best to let the two of them leave.

"why why......"

Warring States murmured over and over again, wanting an answer that was simply unacceptable.

Looking at this scene, Akainu, Aoki, and Kizaru, the three most outstanding disciples of Zefa and the current three admirals of the navy, also looked serious and remained silent.

And just then, a voice sounded.

"Maybe it's because Zefa is too disappointed with the navy!"

Only Garp dared to say such face-breaking words at this time.

After hearing this, Warring States stood up instantly, tensed his body, looked at Garp who was bowing his head in thought, and wanted to get angry, but in the end he endured it and sat down on the chair slumped.

If the biggest blow to the Warring States Period in this life was the naval defeat 20 years ago, then the second time is this moment.

Once was a 'failure' of justice, and once was a 'betrayal' of a close friend!

In the end, he said without giving up.

"No matter what, I have to contact Zefa. I want him to tell me the answer personally!"

"I know! However, the most important thing now is to reduce the impact of Zefa's departure. There are already many different voices within the Navy..."

With Zefa's departure, many navy members began to think of leaving the navy and defecting to the Rainbow Kingdom while holding great pessimism.

Especially those in the middle and lower ranks of the navy!

Not everyone believes in the justice of the Navy.

In the past, they just had no choice. In addition to pirates, there was the navy in the entire sea. But now there is an option of the Rainbow Kingdom. Moreover, with the precedent of Zefa, it is not impossible for them to switch camps.

"Leave this to me, I will take care of it!"

It was Sakaski who spoke. From his cold words, you can guess the method he wants to use.

But at this moment, the Navy had no choice.

And as time slowly passed, the news of Zefa's departure from the navy began to spread throughout the sea...

The Grand Line, Gaya Island, Devil's Town.

In a certain tavern, a man named Marshall Teach is hiding here.

After more than ten days of escaping, he finally arrived at the first half of the Grand Line from the New World.

Once here, he can be said to be more than half safe, because this is the chassis of one of the Shichibukai: Doflamingo.

Even Whitebeard's forces did not dare to come here with great fanfare to arrest him.

In addition to avoiding Whitebeard's pursuit, there is another reason why he is here, which is to become familiar with the power of the newly acquired Darkness Fruit and then wait for the opportunity.

But now, he looked at the news in the newspaper that former Navy Admiral Zefa left the navy and joined the flag of the rainbow, and he knew that the time had come.

Most of the people who can become his crew are unruly and unruly people, and not many can stay by his side with peace of mind.

Just like now, only the man named Lafitte is staying here quietly. He is also the only man among Blackbeard's partners who is excellent in all aspects of strategy and can give advice to Teach.

"Jie hahahaha, our opportunity has come, let everyone come over, we are ready to go!"

Lafitte looked at the newspaper and said with enlightenment.

"Has the time come?"

"Ah, the betrayal of the former admiral is definitely a huge blow to the navy's reputation. At this time, in order to maintain the stability of order, the navy will never allow the sea to undergo huge changes."

"So, has the target been chosen?"

"Of course, for the follow-up plan, it is necessary to become a Shichibukai, so there must be one available for us to replace. As for the goal?"

Teach took out a bounty card, which read: Shah Crocodile, bounty of 1 million Beli.

Lafitte said a little strangely.

"I thought you would choose that woman?"

"Is Katrin Diemei? Don't look down on her just because she is a woman. The Devil Fruit she possesses is very difficult to deal with. Moreover, with the ability of my secret fruit, it is best to fight against the natural type. Under unexpected circumstances, the battle might be easily resolved..."

Lafitte was convinced.

"How cunning, Captain, then, when will we set off..."

"Just tomorrow, let's find a suitable ship first. If everything goes well, we can reach Alabasta in three days..."

"Alabasta, that seems to be one of the first twenty countries. Does it really matter if we enter like this?"

"It doesn't matter, have you forgotten what I said? Now the tide of the times is about to completely rise. We must get more chips before we are drowned..."
