One Piece: I Am the Revolutionary Army

[Does the Revolutionary Army need retired veterans?] Zephyr's sudden words shocked everyone present, including Long who had sensed his kindness and Roya who had made some guesses.

Not to mention Fujitora, Nagli, Ivankov and the others. The shock was particularly obvious on Ivankov's face, his mouth was wide open, his eyes were as big as bells, and his nose was almost running.

The admiral whom I met for the first time actually proposed to join the Revolutionary Army? No one would be able to remain calm after hearing this.

Who is the Admiral? He is the highest force of the World Government, the absolute top of the Navy, with the power to destroy a small country, second only to the Celestial Dragons and the Navy Admiral. The status of the Admiral is even higher than that of the kings of most member countries.

Such a person actually wants to join the Revolutionary Army? To be honest, leaving aside the potential, the Revolutionary Army is at most a large pirate group in the world today. Compared with the top pirate groups such as Whitebeard, Roger, and Big Mom, it is still a long way behind.

Zephyr wants to join the Revolutionary Army, which is equivalent to the admiral resigning and becoming a pirate.

"This is not a joke." Even the calm Ryu and Fujitora couldn't help but question it at this moment.

Roya was the first to calm down. He could hear the voices of all things and could tell that Zephyr was serious. This admiral, a veteran of the navy, actually wanted to join the Revolutionary Army sincerely.

"The revolutionary army has a great ideal and never refuses any comrade to join." Luo Ya smiled and extended his hand to Zefa, "Welcome, Comrade Zefa."

"Comrade, this name always sounds very friendly, it's really nice." Zefa smiled gently and shook Luoya's hand forcefully.

Ivankov and the others just stared at the two men shaking hands, as if it was heralding the world to usher in a new era of revolutionary armies.

"Chin, chin, my jaw is dislocated, haha." Ivankov lifted his chin hard, making a click, and then made a funny gesture to hide his inner shock and strangeness.

A few months ago, they were troubled by the admiral in Frevans, but now they have their own admiral, one of the only admirals in the navy, joining them.

"Nagli, do you think this is easy?" Luo Ya looked at Zefa and thought to himself.

"Hahaha, actually I had already joined the Revolutionary Army before coming to Shampoo." Zefa laughed heartily.

"What?" Even Roya was stunned. Zephyr joined the Revolutionary Army before Shampoodi? How is that possible?

"Surprised?" Zefa looked at everyone and said with a smile, "My understanding of the Revolutionary Army is far beyond your imagination."

After that, he did not linger any longer and began to explain: "I was born in Beihai, but my wife is from Donghai. When I talk about her, I always feel something emotional."

Luo Ya's eyes moved. He had not found this information before, but after hearing about Dong Hai, he had guessed something.

"Since my wife passed away, I rarely went to the East Sea. It was not until the uprising in the Kingdom of Lubuni that I first paid attention to your revolutionary army." Zefa looked at Roya, "You give me a different feeling. You are not pirates. I know this very well. Since the Lubuni incident, I have been paying attention to you until the Frevans incident."

"I have always been against the use of demon-killing orders against non-pirates. You were able to resist the World Government's large-scale demon-killing order. To be honest, I have a good impression of you. For this reason, I specially brought the recruit training ship to Frevans."

"Is it because of Frevans?" Ivankov nodded. Frevans was extremely supportive of the Revolutionary Army. When Zefa went there, he would only hear the locals' support for the Revolutionary Army, so it was natural for him to want to join.

They have lofty ideals and hope to do something for the grassroots people. Ivankov and his colleagues are well aware of the appeal of the revolutionary army to such people. Just as noble people will naturally gather under the banner of justice and righteousness, they will naturally integrate into the big family of the revolutionary army.

"Yes, I saw a lot in Lubni and Frefans, which the high and mighty rulers could not see because they were unwilling to bend down." Zefa nodded, "I had some ideas at that time, but what really made me firm in my mind was in the East China Sea."

"Six years ago, after my wife and children were killed, I set foot in her hometown again, alone. It was a small island far away from the main shipping routes and was occasionally attacked by pirates." Zefa clenched his fists, then unclenched them and sighed softly. Every time he mentioned his wife and children, he found it difficult to control his emotions.

"This time when I went to the island, I found that there were big changes. The villagers were undergoing combat training under the leadership of a man in his thirties."

"The men in the village spontaneously formed a defense team. After training and with the weapons they mastered, they were able to resist the pirates." Zefa looked at Roya and smiled. "That man's name is Goto. He doesn't know my identity. I observed him for many days, talked with him, and became friends with him. I also learned a lot about the Revolutionary Army from him."

"To be honest, I was very touched, not because of the big moves made by your revolutionary army, or how you rescued Frefans or triggered the uprising in Lubni."

"It's because I saw the efforts you made for those neglected civilians. I saw the revolutionary comrades with lofty ideals who spontaneously came to these small islands and used their power to save as many civilians as possible from pirates. I don't see hope in you cadres, but in Goto and more people like Goto."

Zefa was somewhat moved: "I have been upholding justice since I was a child. When I grew up, I joined the navy and have been upholding justice for decades, but I became more and more confused. Until I met Goto, I saw the true justice."

"That day, in front of the graves of my wife and children, I made up my mind to join the revolutionary army. I had nothing to worry about but justice."

Zefa finished speaking. He knew how strange it was for the general to suddenly join the Revolutionary Army, but this was more like the voice of a veteran who stood up for justice.

No one can remain unmoved by his words. Zefa is a navy who truly upholds justice, and his pursuit of justice is pure.

"Teacher Zefa." Aokiji couldn't help but whisper. He found that he had never really understood this teacher during the boot camp. The teacher had too many stories hidden.

But he was also happy for his teacher. The current Zefa teacher was completely different from the state he was in when he was training as a naval recruit. At that time, the teacher was old-fashioned, but now, he seemed to be alive again, and justice and ideals injected new strength into him.

"The spark of the East China Sea has grown to this extent." Luo Ya was also somewhat relieved. He did not expect that after more than a year since leaving the East China Sea, the revolution had already spread completely there. As he expected, the ideas of the revolutionary army were spreading from village to village, like an undercurrent that could stir up the entire East China Sea at any time.

This is the power of the revolutionary army. Although it is not that strong, it is subtle and silent, quietly changing the world.

"A single spark can start a prairie fire." Fujitora couldn't help but say. He had left the East China Sea with Roja, and now, those sparks spread from the Kingdom of Goa have become a prairie fire, and even Admiral Zephyr has chosen to join the Revolutionary Army.

"So, what should we do next? To liberate the slaves in Shampoodi, we will face a very strong force." Zephyr said, "Even if I join, I may not be able to withstand the next attack."

As a high-ranking officer of the navy, even if Zephyr has retired to the second line, he still knows a lot of secrets, much more than vice admirals like Aokiji. Close to Sabaody, there is not only the power of the navy headquarters, but also the CPO, which is equally powerful.

"It's okay. To be honest, your joining has made our plan halfway successful..." Luo Ya smiled. Their biggest problem - dealing with the combat power of the general level. Now that the general is their own, it is equivalent to facing two less generals.

"Our goal is just to last for two days." Luo Ya said with a smile.
