"Hahaha! Are you done for, Zephyr?"
As their fists collided, Charlot curled his lips into a smile and said.
"Hehe! You're no better off, Charlot!"
Zephyr also let out a chuckle from the corner of his mouth.
After his words fell, Zephyr and Charlot fell straight down, both of them remaining in the posture of their last punch!
"Vice Admiral Zephyr!"
Many marines on the naval warship exclaimed when they saw this.
"Quick! Save Vice Admiral Zephyr quickly!"
Many naval soldiers on the leading naval warship jumped off the ship one after another.
On the Rocks Pirates' side, they also jumped off their pirate ship and rushed towards Charlot.
The high - end combat forces of both sides stared at each other and sent their subordinates to carry out the rescue instead of stepping forward themselves.
Countless naval soldiers and pirate minions stepped on the sea and set foot on the beach.
"Vice Admiral Zephyr!"
"Captain Charlot!"
The subordinates of both sides came to the two who had fainted on the ground and carried their respective leaders back to the warship or the pirate ship.
A group of ship doctors from both sides stepped forward to check on them.
"How is it?"
Admiral Kong (Admirals Garp) asked the doctor who had come to the deck.
"Exhausted! Extremely exhausted! He needs rest and nutrition supplements! As for the injuries, they're not serious! It's just exhaustion!"
The ship doctor reported after the examination.
"Phew!"
Admiral Kong let out a sigh of relief when he heard this.
"It's just exhaustion! Carry Vice Admiral Zephyr to the rest room!"
Admiral Kong ordered.
Then several rear admirals immediately carried Zephyr to the cabin.
Admiral Kong looked in the direction of Captain Rocks.
They were also checking on Charlot there.
"Captain Rocks! Captain Charlot is fine! It's just exhaustion!"
If Charlot were still awake, he would recognize this ship doctor.
It was Miss Bakkin, the mother of Edward Weevil, who would become one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea in the future.
Now she was the ship doctor and scientist of the Rocks Pirates.
"Send him to the cabin to rest!"
Captain Rocks waved his hand and said, then looked at the marine side as if sensing something.
Both sides immediately became tense.
"Wowahaha! Admiral Kong, how about having a drink?"
Captain Rocks looked at Admiral Kong and said with a smile.
"Humph! Head back to base!"
Admiral Kong glanced at him, then flicked his cape behind him and gave the order.
When the Rocks Pirates saw the marines' actions, Captain Rocks burst into laughter.
"Wowahaha! Guys, back to Hive Island!"
As Captain Rocks' words fell, the fleets of both sides returned to their respective bases without staying.
...
The next day, news shocked the sea that Vice Admiral Zephyr of the Marine Headquarters fought Charlot, the eighth cadre of the Rocks Pirates, and the battle ended in a draw with both sides injured. Admiral Kong of the Marine Headquarters led all the combat forces of the Marine Headquarters to confront Captain Rocks D. Gibek of the Rocks Pirates in the Aide Wo'er Sea Area, and neither side started a fight. Is this the weakness of the Marines, or is the Rocks Pirates too strong, causing the Marine Headquarters not to dare to launch an attack?
As Morgans' news spread across the Four Seas and the Grand Line, everyone saw this piece of news.
The situation in the New World had changed dramatically, and the weakness of the Navy made all the people in the Four Seas feel a bit uneasy.
If the Four Seas were just uneasy,
then the New World was in panic. Countless people from various countries and major forces were plunged into panic.
Whether they were people in the underworld or kings of the World Government's allied countries, they all felt panicked.
Because the Rocks Pirates were not easy to deal with.
Wherever the Rocks Pirates went, there was only plunder and killing.
This could be seen from the fact that in recent years, the kings of numerous islands in the New World had been killed, their countries destroyed, and the people enslaved.
"Roger, we're a step too late!"
Rayleigh walked over with a newspaper in his hand.
They had just passed through Fish - Man Island when they saw this piece of news!
Roger frowned as he watched the Rocks Pirates causing chaos in the New World. His face looked extremely grim.
"Rocks D. Gibek!"
Roger murmured.
Navy Headquarters!
Bang!
After seeing today's newspaper, Kong, one of the Admirals, punched the newly - bought table out of anger.
The table shattered immediately.
"Damn Morgans! Is he trying to throw the world into panic?"
Kong said angrily.
"Admiral Kong, the world is already in panic. According to the reports from the branches, people in the Four Seas and the Grand Line are becoming pirates one after another and rushing towards the Grand Line crazily. All the branches are requesting support."
Sengoku handed the newly - received information to Admiral Kong.
After reading it, Kong was so angry that he tore the information to pieces.
Brubrubrubru!
"Hello!"
Kong answered the phone.
The voices of the Five Elders came through the Den Den Mushi.
"The World Government will approve the Navy's expansion plan and allow the Navy to expand its forces!"
The voices of the Five Elders were very calm.
But to Kong, it was great news.
"Yes! Your Excellencies, the Five Elders. I will definitely make the Navy powerful again."
After Kong finished speaking, the other side hung up the phone!
Looking at Kong, who had been angry just now but became extremely happy the next second, Sengoku was a bit confused.
"Admiral Kong! What's going on?"
Sengoku asked.
Kong punched the table again.
"The World Government has approved our Navy's expansion plan!"
Kong said excitedly.
Hearing this, Sengoku was also overjoyed instantly.
"Great! The situation on the sea is extremely critical now. Countless pirates set sail every day, leaving our branches under - staffed. Now this problem can finally be solved."
Sengoku clapped his hands happily.
"Hahaha! That's right! As long as we have enough people in the Navy, we'll wipe out all the pirates sooner or later."
Kong said confidently.
"Sengoku, you go and write a recruitment report right away and send it all over the world. Let everyone know that the Navy is about to expand its forces. Take this opportunity to warn those with ulterior motives!"
Kong immediately gave orders to Sengoku!
"Yes!"
Zhan Guo walked out with a happy face.
He's really good at dealing with such small things.
Honeycomb Island!
Xia Luo was lying on a very large bed, staring at the ceiling.
Now his whole body was wrapped in bandages, with only his mouth and a pair of eyes left exposed; the rest was wrapped up tightly.
When he woke up, he found himself lying in his own bed.
Sitting beside the bed were his five maids.
One of the maids, Jenny, was holding a two - year - old child who was having milk!
"Master, you're awake!"
Suddenly, Alice beside him exclaimed happily when she saw Xia Luo open his eyes.
Her voice immediately attracted the other maids.
"Master!"
In an instant, the five maids gathered around.
Including Jenny, who was holding the child in her arms!
"What time is it?"
Xia Luo looked at the maids around him and murmured softly with the corner of his mouth.
"Master, you've been unconscious for two days. It's the third day since your fight with that Zefa!"
Martha said, holding a towel.
