Pirates: I become stronger by checking in on the plot island

After saying that, Xia Chen just looked at him indifferently.

He recognized Zefa's identity from the first moment he saw him. After all, the mechanical arm on his right hand was indeed quite conspicuous.

As for why Xia Chen asked this, it was because he wanted to see what identity Zefa regarded himself as now.

In the original work, when Ze Fa was 73 years old, he learned that Edward Weeble had joined the Seven Warlords of the Sea. He began to have strong doubts and distrust towards the navy, and resolutely withdrew from the navy and established the "NEO Navy" with the goal of annihilating pirates all over the world.

Then he met Luffy when he was 74 years old, two years after the Battle of Marineford.

So if we infer according to the normal timeline, Zefa should not have retired from the navy yet.

But Xia Chen still asked this question because in the past six months, Edward Weeble had been invited by the Navy to join the Seven Warlords of the Sea.

There is no other way. After all, Blackbeard was killed by him, and Jinbei was also stripped of the title of Shichibukai for various reasons. The Navy must find someone to fill their vacancies.

However, what is slightly different from the original work is that Moria was not kicked out of the ranks of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, and he still sits firmly in the position of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.

The current Shichibukai are:

Joracol Mihawk!

Bartholomew Bear!

Boya Hancock!

Bucky!

Edward Weible!

Moonlight Moria!

Donquixote Doflamingo!

"..."

Zefa was silent for a moment, then looked at Xia Chen and asked, "Who are you? Why do you know my identity?"

"Is it strange to know your identity? Don't you know that you are a celebrity? So... are you Z or Zefa now?" Xia Chen asked again.

"..."

Zefa was silent for a while, and then uttered a sentence slowly and firmly.

"Z! I am Z now!"

"Is that so? I understand!" Xia Chen nodded, then looked at him and said:

"In that case, now that you've woken up, you can get off our ship!"

"Xia Chen?? What are you doing? This old man is still seriously injured!"

When Chopper heard Xia Chen's words, he jumped out immediately and looked at Xia Chen in confusion and asked.

"Hey! Chopper! I think what Xia Chen said is right. This man is the former admiral of the navy. He is incompatible with us pirates. Let's let him go!" Usopp walked over, grabbed Chopper and said softly.

Although his voice was not loud, Zephyr used to be an admiral. Even though his strength has declined now, he still heard everything Usopp said clearly and took in every word.

Instantly, Zefa's expression changed, and he stood up immediately.

The kindness in his eyes had completely disappeared, replaced by hostility. He looked at everyone and said in a low voice:

"I see, you are pirates! In that case..."

Without saying a word, Zefa raised his fist and attacked Xia Chen who was closest to him.

Seeing this scene, Xia Chen couldn't help but sigh.

"Well, it's still like this!"

Just as Zefa's fist was about to hit Xia Chen, Xia Chen slowly uttered a word.

"Certainly!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zefa stopped moving, including his fist, which stopped ten centimeters away from Xia Chen's face.

Seeing this scene, everyone's faces immediately showed dissatisfaction.

"I say, old man, your behavior is a little unreasonable, isn't it? We saved you, and now you are repaying our kindness with hatred?"

"Even if you are a navy and we are pirates, there is no reason for us to turn against each other so quickly, right?"

Sanji looked at Zephyr and said rudely, but Zephyr didn't even look at him, but stared at Xia Chen.

"You...what are you doing? Who are you?"

Although his strength had decreased, he could still be restrained without any action. In addition, he had heard of situations similar to his current one...

A name popped up in Zefa's mind, and he looked at Xia Chen and asked, "Are you...Emperor Xia Chen?"

"it's me!"

Xia Chen nodded. He only blocked Zefa's movements and did not restrict his speech.

He had already anticipated the current situation. Ever since Zefa answered that he was Z, Xia Chen knew what attitude Zefa had towards facing the world now.

When Zefa was still an admiral, he was known as the admiral who never killed any pirates, no matter how sinful and evil the pirates were!

And just because of his kindness, he paid an extremely painful price!

All his family members were killed by pirates who hated him. Since then, Zephyr began to hate pirates and offered to resign, but was retained by his superior. He still had hope for the navy and finally stayed. As the chief instructor of the navy, he trained a large number of powerful navy.

However, bad luck did not intend to let him go. When he was 65 years old, the training ship led by Zefa was attacked by Edward Wieble. All of his beloved students except Ain and Binz were killed, and his right arm was also seriously injured.

Even so, Zephyr did not quit the navy. It was not until he was completely disappointed with the navy that he decided to form a new navy and planned to save this extremely corrupt world in his own way!

To be honest, in Xia Chen's opinion, Zefa was indeed a good navy officer and a good admiral! But he was not a qualified admiral!

Which naval commander has never had blood on his hands?

Being kind to your enemies is the greatest cruelty to yourself. Zefa didn’t even understand this truth!

Of course, this is just the Zephyr of the past! In his Z period, he has completely abandoned all kindness, and even behaves very similarly to Akainu!

In order to blow up the three end points of the new world, they will do whatever it takes! They don't even care about the lives of civilians.

Of course, Xia Chen has a relatively high overall evaluation of Zefa, who was also a character he admired in his previous life.

That's why Xia Chen didn't attack directly after Zefa attacked him. Otherwise, if it was someone else he didn't like or even hated, he would have invited the other person to have tea downstairs long ago!

After thinking for a while, Xia Chen looked at him and said, "Zef! Oh, no, Z!"

"I don't want to kill you, so go back to where you came from!"

"But... don't think I'm patient. If you still plan to attack us, I will have no choice but to kill you!"

Xia Chen's tone was calm, but it made Zefa break out in a cold sweat. After thinking for a while, he said, "I know! If nothing unexpected happens, my subordinates have already found me based on my life card!"

"I will go back when they arrive! In the meantime, please allow me to stay on this ship for a while. I will not attack you!"

Zefa said in a compromising tone.

There is no way! It's not that he wants to compromise, but reality forces him to compromise!

Before he left the navy, Garp once told him about the battle with Xia Chen. To sum it up, he was crushed the entire time!

If Garp, who is stronger than him, is like this, let alone him!

If he had no worries now, he might rather die than surrender and fight Xia Chen to the end!

But he still has something unfinished! He must not die before finishing that thing!
