Chapter 494 It's a miracle that Aokiji is still alive.
After Garp finished asking his question, both Sengoku and Garp were stunned to see that Aokiji actually nodded.
Sengoku's face turned ashen, and he said, "Two generals in a row have been defeated by him. What kind of monster is this guy?"
In less than a month, both Kizaru and Aokiji were defeated by Yoru, a situation that had never occurred before in the history of the Navy.
Garp looked at Aokiji with a serious expression and asked, "Tell me what exactly happened."
As his student, Garp felt completely different when Kizaru lost versus when Aokiji lost.
After a long silence, Aokiji awkwardly recounted the details of his battle with Yoru.
Sengoku and Garp were speechless when they learned that it was actually Aokiji who had provoked Yoru.
Looking at Aokiji's somewhat tattered clothes, the two of them sighed, realizing that this guy was still alive and back, so it seemed that Yoru wasn't such a bad person after all.
However, after Aokiji finished recounting the details of the battle, Sengoku and Garp's expressions changed.
Both of them got goosebumps all over their bodies; the battle described by Aokiji was simply too terrifying.
These two knew that Aokiji would lose. After all, if Aokiji and Yoru fought, and Yoru was able to defeat Kizaru, then Aokiji would have virtually no chance of winning against Yoru.
But neither of them could have imagined that Aokiji would lose so badly.
Even Ye Yu's strength had reached a point where these two were terrified.
Yoru's terror has far surpassed that of Pirate King Roger and Rocks back in the day.
With just two punches, he knocked out a Marine Admiral, which means that Yoruha could kill Aokiji with two punches.
Moreover, why did the sound of Aokiji's first punch resemble the strange phenomena in the sky they had seen before?
If those space fireworks really were set off by Ye Yu, the thought sent chills down their spines.
The two exchanged a glance and said simultaneously, "This guy has the power to destroy the world!"
It's not a question; it's definitely a statement.
The two spoke with certainty, making the idea truly terrifying.
At this point, Ye Yu was no longer human, and the two of them simply couldn't believe that a human could possess such power.
When Karp realized that he hadn't discovered that such a monster had been living in Windmill Village for ten years, he didn't reveal the slightest bit of his power.
Garp felt a lingering fear.
This guy has the power to destroy the world.
At this point, it was no big deal that Yoru was able to defeat a Marine Admiral, or even defeat him very easily.
Yoru has already acquired the power to destroy the world, which is the most terrifying thing.
Sengoku looked at Aokiji and sighed, "You're incredibly lucky. He doesn't seem to want to kill you, otherwise..."
Sengoku didn't finish speaking, but Aokiji knew what he was going to say.
Aokiji said, "He certainly doesn't seem like a bad person."
Karp said, "This guy has been in Windmill Village for ten years and hasn't hurt anyone during that time. He's definitely not a bad person."
"Sengoku, should we remove his bounty?"
Garp was genuinely afraid, not because he was afraid Yoru would kill him, but because he was worried that the Navy's bounty would provoke Yoru, who truly possessed the power to destroy the world.
He didn't want the World Government's actions to anger Yoru and cause the world to be destroyed.
Sengoku remained silent for a long time before finally saying, "But we can't just withdraw the bounty as we please; we have to see what the World Government's attitude is."
Garp said seriously, "Does the World Government want to provoke that kid?"
"Just explain it to those old guys in the World Government. They shouldn't be that senile."
Sengoku nodded. This matter was of great importance, and Sengoku dared not neglect it. He immediately went to the Five Elders to tell them about it.
After Sengoku left, Aokiji looked at Garp and asked, "Vice Admiral Garp, is it really that serious?"
Because when Aokiji fought Yoru, he didn't pay attention to Yoru's reaction after the first punch; all his attention was on Yoru.
Garp didn't say anything, but instead showed Aokiji a video.
"You'll know just by looking at it."
Aokiji looked at the screen curiously.
When he saw a violent explosion suddenly appear in the sky, the entire sky was covered in flames, as if a second sun had appeared in the sky, and it lasted for several minutes. Judging from the area in space, it was probably tens or even hundreds of kilometers in size.
Moreover, judging from its size, and the fact that it exploded in space, if such a powerful explosion were to occur on this planet, it would likely trigger a massive global earthquake.
Human civilization as a whole will be utterly destroyed.
Fortunately, the explosion occurred in space, and it appeared to be quite far from the planet.
Just thinking about how Ye Yu's punch could travel tens of thousands of kilometers is terrifying in terms of distance and speed. After all, this punch may have covered tens of thousands of kilometers in just a few minutes.
That's equivalent to the speed of that punch reaching hundreds of kilometers per second.
Although it's far from the speed of light, it's already faster than Kizaru's speed.
Because Kizaru's speed is also far from the speed of light, but his speed can still reach tens of kilometers per second.
Kizaru's speed is already considered the pinnacle of human speed in the One Piece world, but Yoru's punch was even faster than Kizaru's speed.
If that punch had landed on this planet instead of exploding in space, it might have had the effect of an asteroid impact, even if it hadn't destroyed the planet.
When that time comes, human civilization will truly be destroyed.
After reading it, Aokiji said with lingering fear, "I actually fought against a guy like that and I actually survived. That guy is definitely not a bad person, and he definitely held back with that punch."
"If that punch had been aimed at me, I definitely wouldn't have been able to dodge it."
Yoru's punch was mainly aimed at the Ice Bird, not at Aokiji, so it completely avoided Aokiji.
Aokiji was stunned. The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, realizing that he had actually survived Yoru's attack.
It's truly a miracle; it's entirely a gamble on Ye Yu's character.
If Ye Yu had made a mistake at that time, he might have been dead beyond any hope of survival.
"I really owe that guy my life."
If Yoru had even the slightest thought of killing Aokiji, Aokiji would not have survived, and no one could have saved him.
The Navy's top combat power was defeated by Yoru, and with Yoru's strength, even the entire Navy combined would probably not be enough to defeat him with a single punch.
After Garp turned off the video, he sighed, "I still can't figure out what that kid was thinking. He clearly has such power, yet he stayed in Windmill Village for ten years. After he went to sea, I couldn't see him doing anything that pirates should do."
"Maybe, like Luffy, he really just wants to be an adventurer."
Luffy kept telling Garp that he wanted to become the King of Adventure. Although that was much better than being a pirate, Garp was still not satisfied. He always wanted Luffy to become a Marine and an outstanding Marine.
After all, although the Navy belongs to the World Government and is controlled by the Celestial Dragons, there is at least some order under the rule of the Celestial Dragons, while pirates are completely chaotic.
Pirates are simply creating chaos.
Although Garp disliked the Celestial Dragons, he was well aware that they were a privileged class, but their presence at least maintained order throughout the seas, allowing most ordinary people to live peacefully.
But if this order is lost, things will be terrible.
So Garp actually supports what his son Dragon is doing.
After all, the existing order is not good, so we should change it, but we cannot have no order at all.
In the absence of a better order to replace the old one, Garp hopes that the current order will not collapse.
This is why he became a vice admiral in the Navy even though he clearly disliked the Celestial Dragons.
