With one intact arm, Zefa lifted the sunglasses on his face and smiled softly:

“It seems that as time goes by, I am becoming less and less valued by others on this sea…”

His voice gradually became deeper and deeper.

Over the years, apart from Zoro, there is only one pirate who dares to challenge Zefa.

The pirate who cut off his own arm and a ship full of pirate elites.

At this moment, the pirate who came to him was also powerful in the sea, was also a good swordsman, was also called a monster, and also had that extremely powerful domineering spirit…

Except for the fact that he does not have Devil Fruit abilities, Zefa recalled the moments of that day in Zoro’s body.

Involuntarily, half of his face was covered in shadow, and his body stood up straighter.

“Um?!”

Feeling the aura emanating from Zefa, Sauron couldn’t help but pause slightly.

He was not intimidated by Zefa’s powerful momentum.

On the contrary, Zefa’s rising aura made him feel…

“Why isn’t it as strong as I thought…”

Zoro also gradually frowned.

This was completely different from what he expected, with the powerful combat power and momentum of a general.

Zefa’s aura was strong, but it was far less powerful than the auras of generals such as Aokiji, Akainu, and Kizaru that he had felt during the battle on the summit.

and……

I don’t know if it’s Sauron’s illusion, but he always feels that Zefa has a waning age, as if he has the feeling of being a foreigner~~~

“Is it because the other party is an old man?!”

Zoro never underestimates the strength of his opponent just because of his age or age.

However, one can rely on a person’s age to judge the other person’s current state.

Some people can completely ignore the impact of aging on the body, such as Garp, Sengoku, Kaido, etc.

However, some people suffer from various physical problems as a result, such as being bloated and out of shape, suffering from diseases, and other extremely serious declines in strength.

For example, Charlotte Lingling, Whitebeard, and…this Zefa in front of me.

“This former Navy Headquarters admiral gave me a worse feeling than the dessert general I met in Totland of All Nations…”

Sauron even had such a feeling for Zefa in his heart.

He really felt that Zefa’s current strength was definitely inferior to Katakuri.

In fact, it’s pretty much the same.

In the original version, Zefa had a back-and-forth fight with Luffy who was on second gear, and was ultimately defeated due to various factors such as age and illness.

The high-level armed-color Haki and knowledge-color Haki he possessed before, like the Golden Lion, have all degraded to a relatively weak point.

When Luffy faced Katakuri, even in his fourth gear form, he barely managed to win after being released into the sea.

In addition, Zefa’s arm was cut off before, and his mind was severely hit, and his energy and blood were once again declining.

He has failed and been knocked down before. Some people can rise again after failure, but some people fail and never get up again.

Obviously, Zefa belongs to the latter.

Coupled with the fact that his asthma is getting more and more serious now, it goes without saying that his condition is…

Buzz! !

The huge smash maneuvered into action.

Sauron also immediately calmed down and rushed forward at the same pace, facing Zefa who was rushing towards him.

Dang! !

The sound of gold and iron clashing instantly rose in the field.

~~~~~~~~~

~~~~~~~~~

boom! !

The smell of burnt meat gradually filled the sea.

Wow! !

A figure fell from the sky, hit the sea below, and gradually sank.

despair.

Sanji landed on the deck, stood on tiptoes to dissipate the high heat, took out a cigarette and lit it for himself.

“Huh~”

The smoke was slowly exhaled, and this relaxed and carefree gesture made it obvious at a glance who the final winner was.

He glanced at the opponent’s NEO navy who was hurriedly salvaging Binz, and stopped paying attention to it.

Instead, he slowly turned his head and his face immediately changed.

“Beautiful Miss Lady…Miss?!!”

Sanji, who originally had a scorching gaze, overflowing with peach blossoms, and a pig-brother-like smile on his face, suddenly had a stiff expression on his face.

“What are you doing?!!”

Sanji looked at Ain who was obviously frozen by the ice and looked dazed and unconscious, and shouted in shock.

At this moment, Ain’s whole body was frozen in a huge ice block, standing there like an ice sculpture.

“Hohohohoho, this lady is so beautiful, I really can’t bear to use the sword…”

Next to the ice cube, Brooke was very satisfied with his artistic masterpiece.

“So I can only do this, yo ho ho ho ho!!!”.

Dynamite Rock! ! Ice World! ! Someone will help me stop him! !

Currently, in addition to learning more powerful sword moves, Brooke has also begun to ponder the true power of the underworld fruit.

Now, the only power he can exert is the cold air from the underworld attached to the blade.

It is also possible to use the cold air of the icy death kingdom to cause special damage.

For example, the current freeze on Ain.

That was the body and soul that were frozen together. It was so terrifyingly cold! !

“To make such a beautiful lady into an ice sculpture…”

Sanji originally thought that it would be too harsh to treat a young lady like this.

But when he saw Ain, who was inside the ice, had a cold face, and could observe at close range~~

“Even the young lady who is frozen is still so beautiful!!!”

Looking at the beauty of the other party carefully, his fiery heart began to beat unsatisfactorily.

The heat in his gaze seemed to melt even the harsh ice.

In this way, the three main generals of the NEO Navy were all easily defeated by the Straw Hat Pirates.

Only the last leader is left, former Navy Headquarters General Zefa.

It’s just~~~

His current state is also very bad.

“It is true that the strength has declined very seriously…”

Sauron’s eyes gradually calmed down, and he waved the two knives in his hands.

The third sword and Dao Yiwen he held in his mouth were basically not swung.

Well, with Zefa’s current strength and domineering power, he doesn’t even have the space to let Zoro use his third sword.

Just the high-level [external release] and [internal destruction] armed haki on the double swords were enough to deal with Zefa in front of him.

The best evidence is the blood that is constantly spilling out from Zefa’s mouth.

laugh! !

A slight blade of sword flashed across in an instant, creating a deep blood line in front of Zefa’s chest.

puff! !

Blood splashed and floated in the air, showing a sad and beautiful blood flower.

The dark red blood was a little dim, and seemed to indicate Zefa’s aging and dying body at this moment.

“Cough cough cough!!”

Zefa coughed and staggered back.

Pieces of debris also fell from the crusher on his right arm.

On top of that, cracks appeared.

“You are really old, cough cough cough cough!!!”

Zefa spoke intermittently, and his coughing became more violent.

It seemed like he was coughing out his entire lungs and throat.

He has extremely severe asthma, which has gotten worse as he gets older and suffers blows over the years.

Not only did it eat away at his body to the point where his strength was greatly reduced, he was unable to display his domineering energy properly, and even his own condition was very wrong.

“Sure enough, there will still be such a day after all!!”

Zefa sighed slowly there.

After leaving the navy, he knew that such a day would come.

After all, he was once a general, but he clearly knew what kind of monsters there were in this sea.

When he was at his peak, he failed to lead the outstanding disciples under his command to eradicate the evil in the sea.

Not to mention that he is now separated from the navy, and is still seriously ill and in a waning state.

As early as when he founded the NEO Navy, Zefa had already prepared that he would fall on this sea.

But I didn’t expect that this time I would not be defeated by the pirates of the Yonko, but by the pirates of my old friend Sunson.

Such a gap…

It also made Zefa feel inexplicable. Sure enough, he was already a remnant of the previous era, and this sea no longer belonged to him.

“But at least you came out of Totland of All Nations and suppressed the Charlotte family. It’s not a loss if you lose at your hands…”

A deep smile appeared on Zefa’s lips, “But if you want to make me surrender just like that, there’s still a long way to go!!!”

His good left arm suddenly reached into his arms.

A large test tube potion appeared in Zefa’s hand.

Inside the test tube, there was a dark, deep dark purple luster, like a substance like mineral crystals.

“Um?!!”

Just as he was about to move forward, Zoro, who gave Zefa the final blow, suddenly stopped.

“that is……”

He raised his eyebrows and looked at the test tube substance in Zefa’s hand with some concern.

For some reason, he sensed an extremely dangerous feeling from such a small test tube.

“I had already made up my mind when I went to sea to conquer pirates…”
