Weapon fruit is rubbish? Have you ever heard of Ryujin Jakka?

"Let me ask you."

"Teacher Sengoku."

"You are also a man with domineering Haki. If it were you, would you allow someone to dominate you?"

Faced with Zhan Guo's question of choosing between two options, Rosen did not answer, but asked Zhan Guo instead.

"meeting."

"The premise is that the person who is above me must be better than me in both civil and military affairs."

"The king is also a human being. As a human being, he will bow his head sometimes, but he will only bow his head to a king who is stronger than himself."

The meaning of the Warring States period is self-evident.

He has now become the admiral of the navy. In other words, in his era, there was no one in the navy who was superior to him in terms of civil and military affairs.

"Senior Borsalino."

"Mr. Kuzan."

"And Mr. Sakaski, whom I have never met."

"May I ask Sengoku-sensei, who in the navy can be better than me?"

Rosen met the gaze of Zhan Guo, and his spirit seemed to sense the changes in his emotions and thoughts. A strong pressure that seemed to compress the air into liquid filled the surroundings.

"not a single one."

Sengoku felt the domineering aura coming towards him, and a smile of relief and excitement appeared on his face.

That's right.

It is a superior domineering color.

He had reached a level that even he had never reached before so quickly.

"They are all men with the qualities of a great general. I will not compete with them for the position of the three great generals."

Rosen changed the subject.

One moment he was extremely domineering, the next moment he was humble and self-disciplined.

But Zhan Guo heard a sense of arrogance from his seemingly humble words.

He did not compete with Sakaski and others for the positions of the three generals, not because he could not, but because once they were on the field, Sakaski and others would not be able to compete with him at all.

He did not compete with Borsalino and others for the positions of the three generals, not because he could not, but because in Rosen's eyes, Sakaski and others were not even opponents.

He did not compete with Kuzan and others for the positions of the three admirals, not because he could not, but because being a mere admiral was not what Rosen wanted at all.

If he wants to compete for the position of general, no one can defeat him.

"Then you have to be prepared. Garp and I only have five years left in our prime. After five years, even if we don't retire, our strength will decline day by day, and we won't be able to speak as confidently as we do now."

"You must have the civil and military skills to take over as Admiral before we lose our heyday."

"In this case, perhaps we two old guys can still help you when you take up the post of marshal."

Zhan Guo said meaningfully.

The Marine Headquarters, as one of the direct agencies of the World Government, the Five Elders want the Marine Headquarters to be strong, but they do not want to see it too strong.

There is a possibility that the guest may become the host.

He has gained a deep understanding of this in the years since he became the Admiral of the Navy.

Therefore.

Zhan Guo hoped very much that Rosen could take over the position of Admiral of the Navy before he was no longer at his peak.

In this way, he, the marshal who is about to become outdated, can still have a say and help the other party eliminate some unnecessary troubles and disputes.

"Five years?"

Rosen understood the hidden meaning of Zhan Guo's words.

Within five years, their strength was still at its peak, and in the Marine Headquarters, the golden duo of Buddha's Sengoku and the Marine Heroes still had the final say.

Even the Five Elders did not dare to interfere too much in the affairs of the navy.

But five years later, the king will be old and the hero will be in his twilight years, and it will no longer be possible for him to make decisions on his own.

From the Five Elders to CP0 Chief Rob Lucci, everyone bossed Sakaski around and didn't take the new Navy Admiral into consideration at all.

It’s not that Sakaski is not strong enough, but that he can’t do it alone.

Two years after the original work, the overall deterrent power of the navy is far less than that during the period when Sengoku, Garp, and Ziran were all at their peak.

A reminder of the Warring States Period.

Rosen just smiled but didn't say much.

From the time he entered school to now, it took him less than four months to acquire the combat power of a top general.

If he takes one more step and possesses the civil and military skills to take over the position of marshal, it won't take too long.

Five years or something.

too long.

He was too lazy to wait, and if he had to fight, he would fight for the day.

As for the help mentioned in the Warring States Period.

If even becoming a Marine Admiral requires support from both Sengoku and Garp like Kuzan did, and he still can't do it in the end, then he might as well not be the Marine Admiral.

If you're not cut out for it, forcing yourself to do it will only bring embarrassment.

Whether it is the future Kuzan or the future Sakaski, both of them have proved this.

As for the position of Admiral of the Navy, as long as you stretch out your hand to take it, no one will dare to snatch it away, no one can snatch it away, and no one will dare to refuse it. This is called ruling the world.

Otherwise, even stray cats and dogs passing by on the roadside would dare to bare their teeth at the Admiral.

"Since you have made your decision, then good."

"Rosen."

"After you graduate, I plan to let you take a trip to the North Sea."

Zhan Guo glanced at Rosen and took in the smile on his face.

Without the need for Observation Haki to sense it, he could feel the confidence that looked down on the world from this smile. In a trance, it seemed as if he saw his younger self.

At that time, was the rank of Admiral of the Navy awarded by the Five Elder Stars?

No.

He fought for it.

Does former Navy Grand Marshal Cyborg Kong dare to recommend anyone else?

dare not.

Do other generals of the same period dare to compete with him?

dare not.

even.

Zhan Guo discovered that the Rosen in front of him was more confident and stronger than his younger self.

Only such a person could, after becoming a marshal, subdue the three admirals and command a million-strong navy.

Bringing the Navy to a heyday far beyond its own period.

A heyday where he reigns over the Four Emperors and there are no Seven Warlords of the Sea.

“Why the North Sea?”

Rosen asked Sengoku.

He thought that Sengoku would go to the New World on his own.

Although there are naval branches all over the world, the branches in the New World face the greatest pressure.

Therefore.

That is why the Navy Headquarters would always let Sakaski, the strongest and most tough of the three admiral candidates, guard the New World.

"What do you think of the system of the Seven Warlords of the Sea?"

Zhan Guo did not answer but asked instead.

"How else can one view it except as a disgrace?"

Rosen sneered.

Since the time he traveled through, under the guidance and instruction of the teacher and student pair, Zefa and Borsalino, he gradually developed a sense of belonging and identification with the navy.

Since they are the navy, of course, there is nothing but shame for the system of Seven Warlords of the Sea.

"This is a mandatory requirement from the Five Elders."

"It is undeniable that this system is a disgrace to the navy, but it does play a balancing role in the overall situation at sea."

"But this kind of balance that is achieved by trampling on the face and justice of the Navy, I and the Navy do not want it."

Zhan Guo's tone sank, and a cold and domineering aura burst out of his body.

"That's it."

"Destroy it."

Rosen's voice was not loud and his tone was calm, but it revealed a sharp edge that made people's heart palpitate.

"I can't do it, but you can."

"But not now."

"It must be when you overpower the three generals and four emperors, hold great power, and rule the world."

Zhan Guo admitted that Rosen had the ability, but he did not support Rosen doing so now:

"Rosen, you have to remember one thing. The reason and purpose of the navy's existence is not to go to war with the World Government at every turn, but to uphold justice and ensure long-term peace and stability in this sea, free from the plunder and invasion of pirates."

"So, pirates are the first priority for the navy."

"As for other things, using fists to solve them is certainly the most convenient, but it is a last resort."

"You must learn to use your dignity and courage to wipe out everything that stands in your way without taking action."

Obviously.

Zhan Guo sincerely, or rather, was determined to train Rosen as the next marshal.

There were things that he had never told anyone in the past and had only revealed to Garp, such as words that seemed to question the World Government. He spoke them directly to Rosen without reservation.
