"I won't lose to you!!"
"I'm Z!!!" Zephyr hadn't mentioned that name in many years!
Because he felt he didn't deserve it!
But now he can feel that passion again, the passion he had when pursuing his pure dreams!
Boom boom boom boom boom boom!!
Another barrage of punches followed, the two of them like relentless monsters!
After exchanging over a thousand punches with Luffy, both were exhausted...
But his mental state is getting better and better, and he is becoming more and more excited!
The Zephyr's giant arm was shattered!
That hand, only the small metal arm inside remained!
Black Arm Zephyr's other arm was covered with terrifying Armament Haki!
Continue the fierce attack!! A barrage of powerful punches rains down!
The sound of the collision echoed throughout the entire island!
……
[Aokiji #2: Although Zephyr is old and suffers from asthma, to be able to fight him to this extent, Straw Hat Luffy is a completely different person now!]
Even for these Marine Admirals at the peak of their powers, taking down a guy like that in a straw hat wouldn't be easy!
Unless we can catch him off guard and make him suffer a great loss in one fell swoop, but such an opportunity is too difficult!
With a strength of 0.4, it shows that Straw Hat Luffy already has a wealth of practical experience!
[Kid #2: Two years later, Straw Hat Luffy has become this strong?!]
[Number 2 Law: He actually managed to fight a former Marine Admiral to this extent!!]
[Number 2, Ain: If Zephyr were in his prime, he would have already defeated the Straw Hat Pirates!]
[Kaido #2: Is Akainu leading a group to surround the entire island, aiming to wipe out their former teacher? Speaking of which, Aokiji appeared before, so he'll probably come too. I just don't know what his current stance is!]
[Number 1 Golden Lion: Poor Zephyr...]
This time, Rocks didn't recruit anyone!
Because Zephyr's hatred for pirates runs deep in his bones!!
“If this continues, Zephyr will die, Sengoku. We must do everything we can to stop the selection of the next Shichibukai,” Garp said in a deep voice.
He simply couldn't bear to see his colleague and companion of many years perish like this!
"I will do my best!" Sengoku nodded.
But if those above insist on doing it that way, it will be difficult for him to change anything!
They weren't the only ones who could foresee Zephyr's fate.
[Akainu #1: Zephyr shouldn't have ended up like this!]
[Aokiji #1: Luckily, we don't have the Seven Warlords system here!]
[Kizaru #1: The pirate who killed Zephyr's family has been dealt with. Zephyr still has both arms intact. There was a guy named Weevil who attacked the training ship, and Zephyr beat him so badly he questioned his existence!]
[Warring States #1: The other Zephyr is in very poor health! Could it be that Raine treated Zephyr?]
[Garp #1: It should be!]

The two slowed down their fighting pace, exhausted, and even ordinary people could see it clearly!
With a powerful punch, Zephyr first knocked Luffy's hands away, then charged in and slammed punch after punch into Luffy's face!
Even though Luffy is a rubber man, he was instantly bruised and battered, swaying and staggering as he was about to fall!
Luffy then punched Zephyr in the stomach, sending him staggering back several steps!
Just as Luffy was about to give chase, he was hit in the face by another heavy punch from Zephyr and fell to the ground with a thud!
"Finally down..." Before Zephyr could even catch his breath, Luffy jumped up and kicked Zephyr away!
Zephyr was breathing heavily, and Luffy was also breathing heavily; the battles of the others had already ended!
They all just stood by and watched, even though they knew their situation was critical, but no one stopped them!
They knew this was a battle between men!
Thump thump thump!! The two of them were exchanging punches, one after the other!
They no longer had the strength to dodge! They were fighting with their last breath and their last thread of strength!
Whoever lets their breath catch first, whoever tries to catch their breath first, is likely to lose this battle!
And none of them wanted to lose!
"I...I will do it!!! I will become the Pirate King!!" Luffy clenched his fists and roared hysterically!! The more this guy doubted his dream, the more he would prove him wrong!
Even if it costs them their lives, they would not hesitate!
"I'm Z!!" Zephyr was now like a teenager! His face radiated confidence, rare joy, and a fierce competitive spirit!
Luffy roared and charged towards Zephyr, landing several solid punches on him!
Zephyr retaliated once again!
When Luffy was about to throw the last punch, his body had reached its limit!
He collapsed to the ground with a thud just as he reached Zephyr!
But Luffy's arm still gripped Zephyr's thigh tightly, his eyes fixed on Zephyr with unwillingness, stubbornness, and determination, letting out low growls!
Zefa was stunned for a moment, and then just as he was about to move, his body gave way and he fell backward in a sprawling manner.
Both of them were still conscious, but at this moment, their bodies could no longer hold up their will; they had already reached their limits! They had even surpassed their limits!
After Zephyr collapsed, Luffy caught his breath and, supporting his battered body, stood up!
05 stared at Zefa, who was still lying on the ground!
Zephyr was unable to get back up in a short time!
This also means that Luffy's attack on him in that instant was enough to kill him!
Luffy won this battle!
Zephyr calmly looked at Luffy: "I'm getting old too. It's just this little bit, and I can't even move my body anymore. It's a real shame. Happy times always pass by in the blink of an eye!"
Luffy didn't make another move. He turned around, picked up his hat, and walked towards his crewmates!
Zephyr propped himself up with one hand, looked at Luffy's back, and said, "A dreamer is one who eliminates all obstacles in his path and keeps moving forward. Take my life!!"
"I don't care about your life, I've already had my fun!" Luffy put on his hat and smiled!
Zefa remained silent, staring blankly at the boy before him!
I saw a reflection of my former self!! A general who wouldn't be killed…
"If you still want to fight, I'm ready to fight to the bitter end!"
"No, I've calmed down too..." His calm words sounded like Zephyr's final words to the world!
Perhaps this world still has value in continuing to exist!
He's had a deep-seated resentment towards pirates since a very early age, and it's been building up over time!
And so he became the madman he is today! He has done many things that cannot be undone!
I don't know how I'll continue to survive in this world!
However... that anger and resentment, which was not only directed at Luffy and his crew of pirates, gradually dissipated at this moment!
"It seems everyone has arrived. Straw Hat Luffy and Zephyr are both half-dead, but since they're going to die anyway, it doesn't matter!!" At this moment, Akainu led the Marines to surround them!
However, this is different from the violent expression that Akainu usually shows when he encounters pirates!
Even Sakazuki, known for his ferocity and extremism, remained "calm" at this moment!
There was even a faint sadness deep in her eyes!
After all, this was the teacher who taught them how to become a real naval officer!
"Akainu!!!" Upon seeing this, Luffy glared at Akainu with immense anger and was about to rush over to fight him!
"Luffy! Not yet!" Usopp quickly hugged Luffy when he saw this.
Luffy is extremely weak right now. If he forces himself to fight Akainu, he will only lose!
"This is bad! It's the Fleet Admiral!!" Nami and the others exclaimed in alarm.
“They’ve all arrived one after another!” Zephyr picked up the broken sunglasses from the ground and stood up again!
