Chapter 252 Zephyr, am I, Garp, the kind of person who would accidentally kill a Celestial Dragon just by passing by?!
The ground sank inch by inch, and cracks, like circles imprinted by a circular mold, spread outwards from the two people as the center.
The expanding circular cracks grew larger and larger, as did the ejected mud and rock fragments.
And as the protagonist of this chaos.
The area where Bazeir and Kap were located had sunk to a depth of 100 meters.
The entire terrain looks like a large funnel installed on the ground.
Amidst a series of ear-piercing explosions, Garp's lips moved continuously, as if he were saying something.
Bazel's eyes widened slightly, revealing a look of shock.
Maintaining his continued pressure, Garp murmured distractedly, "I hope you can grow up happily, but boys will eventually have their own thoughts as they grow up."
"I am a marine."
"Don't take action if you're not fully prepared."
"I don't want to meet you two idiots on the battlefield."
"Zefa thinks the same way. Although we two are not related to you by blood."
"—But you and Dragon are both kids I've watched grow up."
"While I'm still old enough to clean up your messes and cover for you, strive to grow into a man capable of supporting the family."
"When I get old, I don't even know how much face I'll have left."
"While I'm still young, I'll go ahead and do whatever I want."
The shockwaves from the clash of their powerful auras continued to spread outwards.
At this moment, the ground is like life itself, sinking deeper and deeper without you even realizing it.
"Zeff and I will help you fend off the pressure from within the Navy."
Looking at the young man staring blankly at him, Garp grinned, revealing the affection and kindness that only an elder would show to a younger generation.
"Although that bastard Zefa never said it, I know that he considers you his last family member."
"If things are impossible,"
"Then come back to headquarters. As long as I and Zephyr are still here, the World Government won't dare to do anything to you."

"At least that way you'll survive, remember that, kid!"
With a loud shout, the stalemate suddenly changed!
Garp planted his feet firmly on the ground and pressed his right fist forward little by little.
"Don't make me, an old man, have to undergo a sea burial!"
"Juniors should have the awareness of being juniors!!"
Bang-!!
His right arm was blasted away, and Kapu's fist, the size of a sandbag, slammed into Bazel's chest.
After spitting out a mouthful of blood, Bazel flew backward.
The moonlight shone down from the sky, quickly restoring the man's injuries and strength.
Garp laughed and leaped out of the pit.
The elementalized creatures pursued Bazel.
"Big brother!"
As Bazel flew backward, he wiped the back of his hand across his lips, and along with the blood, a smile also vanished.
"The thought of having two stubborn old men nagging in my ear in the future gives me a headache —"
"Loki, Bear, let's retreat!"
"Now is not the time to fight Garp!"
Bazel raised his hand to summon moonlight to block the road, and then transformed into a giant serpent over two hundred meters tall.
The eight heads each exhibit eight different elemental characteristics.
The snake's mouth was wide open.
A wave of elemental energy, like a tsunami, surged toward Garp.
While the enemy was dodging the attack, Loki and Bear quickly arrived at Bazel's side.
"Let's go to the Sky Island. There's still a gift I gave to Abel there!"
Loki transformed himself as the moon disappeared from the sky and the sun was about to reappear.
The ape-faced, tiger-bodied monster carried the two of them and flew rapidly into the sky.
"Vice Admiral Garp!!"
Once the celestial phenomena returned to their previous state, the marines helped Kuzan to the front of the elemental waves that had not yet completely subsided.
"Frozen Time Capsule!"
"I'm fine, don't bother me!"
A flurry of punches shattered the ice and elemental waves, and Garp emerged from them.
"Where's that idiot Zephyr?"
"Teacher Zephyr————"
Before Kuzan could finish speaking, a steamed bun spirit emerged from the nearby woods.
"I am here."
"Ze-fa-"
Kuzan froze: (òωó) Shock!
"Teacher, what happened to you?!"
Zefa quickly stopped his students from stepping forward to help him up.
His muscles are swollen and sore, making walking difficult enough.
If this is touched by external forces again—
I don't even want to think about that tangy, refreshing feeling.
"hiss!!"
Zephyr gasped and looked at Garp, who had appeared beside him and was clinging to his shoulder.
"Get out of here, you idiot!"
"Can't you see I'm injured?!"
Zeff kicked Garp away and cursed as he instructed, "Kuzan, take them and clean up the town again. I will inform headquarters to change the location of the new assessment site."
Covered in blood, Kuzan nodded and beckoned his comrades to join him in rushing into the town.
As for Professor Zephyr's safety—
With Lieutenant General Garp around, even if Rocks' remnants appear, Zephyr will definitely be safe and sound.
"How did it go? Did you confide in that brat?"
Although he meant well, Zephyr couldn't stand Garp's smile no matter how he looked at it.
"What's it to you? You should be disciplining your son."
"Drag is almost a murderous maniac. I heard from Tsuru that some Celestial Dragons will be going to explore the West Blue soon."
"You'd better pray that your precious son doesn't go berserk, otherwise if he accidentally kills a Celestial Dragon like Bazel, you'll be in big trouble."
"Hahaha~~"
Karp, who had found a place to sit down, slapped his thigh and laughed.
"Kill those scumbags if you want, they're my sons!"
"I'm not praising you and your son!!"
Zephyr finally understood why Sengoku's blood pressure was so high.
If I were to encounter teammates like that, my blood pressure would probably spike too.
Garp is indeed a very reliable teammate when facing danger, but—
When there is no danger, Garp is the greatest danger.
He found a place to sit down, and felt a throbbing pain in the muscles that were being pulled. Zefa suppressed the discomfort.
"Garp, is it really appropriate for the two of us to be doing this?"
"No matter what, we're both Marines—"
Garp didn't seem to care, picking his nose with his little finger.
"That brat didn't defect to the Navy like Dragon. Anyway, his enemy is the Celestial Dragons. I was already being lenient by not throwing a torpedo at Mary Geoise when I passed by."
Upon hearing Garp's words, Zephyr suddenly remembered something and squinted at him.
"You little brat—"
"I suddenly remembered that Sengoku said there was thunder in Mary Geoise around 1 or 2 AM a while ago. Could it be that you were passing through Mary Geoise?"
Borsalino also said that several Celestial Dragons died recently, apparently because they were practicing swordsmanship with slaves on the roof and accidentally attracted lightning, and were eventually roasted alive.
Garp froze as he picked his nose, his eyes looking guilty as he glanced at the sky, his lips pursed to one side.
"I...I don't know, hahaha, hahaha, what do you mean by accidentally letting out a little lightning? I didn't do anything like that!"
'
"It really is Zephyr!"
Garp coughed lightly, met Zephyr's gaze, and his expression was as serious as could be.
"As comrades-in-arms for decades, you must learn to trust your comrades instead of doubting them!"
"Zeff, do you think I, Garp, am the kind of person who would accidentally strike a Celestial Dragon with lightning just by passing by?!"
"----Who are you."
Zefa remained expressionless.
"Alright, I know the truth now, so stop trying to explain."
"Now I finally understand why Sengoku had a headache when he learned he was about to become a marshal."
"With a vice admiral like you causing such trouble, any admiral would have a headache."
Garp scratched the back of his head and chuckled, "It's not that great. I'm just helping the Navy out."
Zephyr wanted to yell something like, "I'm not complimenting you!" but after a quick thought, he figured Garp probably wouldn't take it seriously.
I decided to give up on complaining and start talking about other things instead.
"That giant must be Harald's son Loki, right? He's the only one who could easily defeat Kuzan now."
What's your impression of him?
Seeing that they were getting down to business, Garp stopped joking around, crossed his arms, and lowered his head to think.
"—It has great potential."
"He is an awakener of all three types of Haki, and judging from his current level of proficiency, he must have been training for a long time."
"However, he calls Bazel 'Big Brother,' behaves very obediently, and most importantly—"
Garp recalled the way Kuma and Loki looked at him during their previous battle.
"I suspect they might know Bazeal's identity. If so, these two might be Bazeal's trusted confidants."
A trusted confidant?
Zefa rested his chin on his hand, deep in thought.
Judging from the current situation, Borsalino has definitely joined forces with Bazell.
Needless to say, Dorlag was even worse.
Those two little devils used to be mischievous together when they were kids.
And what role can I play in all of this?
"Karp,"
Garp looked at his friend who had called out to him but then fell silent again.
"What kind of role do you plan to play in this?"
"Me? I am a Marine, now and in the future. No matter how the sea changes in the future, I will continue to sail as a Marine."
Garp grinned and patted his chest with his right hand.
"My dream is to freely administer justice. I couldn't see any hope of achieving it before, but now it seems like there are some signs of it coming true."
"I intend to become Bazel's protector, shielding him from pressure from within the Navy. If necessary, I can also accidentally kill a few Celestial Dragons while dealing with pirates."
"So that the world government's attention will shift from him to me."
"Is that so?" Zeff murmured, then seemed to have made a decision. "Garp, I want to secretly go to Borsalino in a while."
"I want to hear his answer with my own ears."
"Perfect timing," Garp said, pointing to the West Sea. "I was just thinking of skipping work to go to the West Sea. It's been a while since I've beaten up that damned Dorag. My hands are itching."
"That unfilial son doesn't even bother to come back to headquarters to see his father!"
As their fists collided, Garp's smile became more sinister.
"This time, I'm going to teach him a lesson he won't forget!"
Zeff really didn't want to interfere with Garp's family education.
"Do as you please. Headquarters is currently preparing for the upcoming shaving program."
"It's enough that you come back before then, but if this plan fails, Marshal Kong may have to take responsibility for the failure and retire."
"After all, with the Admirals and Marine Heroes working together against a great pirate, plus the forces of the Buster Call, if they still fail—"
"The morale of the pirates will definitely soar, and it might even affect the morale of the Navy in all four seas."
Garp's smile vanished, replaced by a solemn expression: "This plan absolutely cannot fail!"
"Whether it's me or Sengoku, we are both prepared to sacrifice!"
"Zeffa, if I accidentally die on the battlefield, I'm entrusting Bazel and Dorrag to your care."
Zephyr stood up, looked at Kuzan and the others as they walked out of the town, and lowered his voice.
"Don't say such discouraging things. A menace like you should just live a normal life."
"I don't have as much influence as you."
"Kuzan, call back. Take all the remaining surviving pirates with you. We're going to Impel Down."
"Yes, Professor Zephyr!"
