People are pirates, this navy is not very fair!

Rumble-!

Above the dark sky, dark clouds rolled, and there were waves of dull thunder.

Heavy rain poured down, and a huge tornado that reached from the sky to the ground continued to rage on the sea surface, causing the strong wind to howl, and the white raging waves kept beating against the side of the first class warship.

"Teacher Zefa, you are really old!

He was actually forced into this situation by a few miscellaneous fish...

Or are you still adhering to your principle of not killing?

So much so that I have fallen into this passive situation..."

A slightly melancholy and sarcastic voice suddenly reached Zefa's ears.

However......

Zefa was not angry but happy, and looked to his side.

On the deck of the warship, a space folding door quietly opened, and Sephiroth, holding a butcher knife, wearing a black suit and a cloak of justice, walked out with an indifferent expression.

The military cadets who were originally ashen-looking also rekindled new hope in their hearts, while the pirates began to retreat in their hearts.

"Are you... Sephiroth!?"

After seeing the face of the silver-haired young man who suddenly appeared clearly, Baker's pupils suddenly shrank, and his heart was shocked.

He never expected that when he was about to get his revenge, a general-level combat force would appear again!

Baker knew very well that the three of them besieged Zefa and cut off one of the opponent's arms. That was because he specially prescribed the right medicine and caught the opponent off guard.

but......

Regarding Sephiroth, he basically only knew that the opponent had admiral-level combat power and could tie with Yonko Kaido, but he knew nothing else.

If they continue to fight, they will be in extremely high risk of defeat!

After Baker quickly weighed it in his mind, he immediately shouted:

"The situation has changed, let's retreat first!"

Immediately, he took the lead, jumped back to the pirate ship first.

However......

Baker only saw a flash of red light in front of his eyes, and his vision reversed, and he also saw a familiar yet unfamiliar headless body.

Did I turn out to be dead? ...Beck finally lost consciousness after such a thought flashed through his mind.

Seeing this scene, the pirates suddenly showed horrified expressions. They clearly saw that Sephiroth just casually swung his knife in the air, and Baker's neck was cut directly.

This person is so terrifying!

"Weibull, the situation is not good, let's retreat quickly!"

On the pirate ship next to the warship, Miss Bajin had already put a swimming ring on herself at some point.

As she spoke, she jumped directly into the rough sea, causing a large splash.

"mom!"

Seeing this, Weibull immediately rushed to the side of the warship, using his feet to jump towards the sea.

Swish!

The butcher's knife entwined with dark red thunder and lightning cut through the void and struck directly at Weibull's fat body, whether it was the neck or the chest.

Compared to Death Doctor Baker, who was completely unaware, Weibull was keenly aware of Sephiroth's intention to swing the butcher knife, tear apart the space, and attack him.

So, he immediately placed the long-handled broadsword wrapped with armed domineering force in front of him.

Clang-!

At the moment when the blades intersected, Weibull took advantage of the situation and made his huge body crash directly into the sea.

"Something!"

Sephiroth looked at Weibull who jumped into the sea, and he murmured unconsciously.

Suddenly losing two important combat forces, the already shaken pirates no longer cared about fighting. They all jumped into the rough sea and quickly escaped from the warship.

"Aren't you running away?"

Sephiroth looked at Hercules Banks in front of him with a smile on his face.

"Hmph! I'm not a loser like them!"

Banks snorted coldly, stepped hard on the deck with his feet, causing cracks, and his whole body was like a cannon being ejected from the chamber. He waved his right fist and fired towards Sa. Philos.

boom-!

The moment Banks hit the bulkhead of the warship, a huge hole with a diameter of more than three meters was opened.

however……

The target of Banks' attack, Sephiroth, connected with his feet, disappeared from the spot, and appeared not far away, perfectly dodging the attack.

"hateful!"

Banks cursed lowly and rushed towards Sephiroth again, waving his fists and launching a fierce attack.

boom-! boom-! boom-!

Due to the extremely powerful fist pressure, there were bursts of explosions in the air, like thunder.

but……

What made Banks extremely desperate was that his attacks never hit the opponent once from beginning to end!

After Sephiroth once again pulled away some distance, he couldn't help but said in a slightly disappointed and helpless tone:

"That's it?"

As soon as these words came out, Banks's face turned green and white with anger, completely losing the arrogance he had just now.

Swish!

Sephiroth flashed and appeared in front of Banks in an instant. The butcher knife in his hand was like an antelope hanging its horns, drawing a beautiful trajectory in the air.

"goodbye!"

A dark red shock wave condensed from the overlord's domineering energy flew out from the dark blade of the butcher's knife and hit Banks, directly splitting the opponent until his eyes turned white, he vomited blood, and he flew backwards. , broke off the side of the warship, hit more than a dozen floats on the sea surface, and flew hundreds of meters away before completely sinking into the sea.

Sephiroth sheathed his sword and muttered:

"Hmm! I thought I could get twenty floats..."

Zefa covered his broken arm, walked up to him, and said softly:

"Sapphire, thank you!

If you hadn't arrived in time, I'm afraid the consequences would have been disastrous..."

Sephiroth glanced at Zephyr's severed right forearm, and he said angrily:

"Don't talk about this yet...

Hurry and pick up your severed hand!

I should be able to salvage it while it's still warm. "

"Wait, you mean... you can put my severed hand back on?"

"Who do you think I am!

When it comes to surgery, I am the best in the world! "Sephiroth said matter-of-factly.

Hearing this, Zefa didn't say anything more. He quickly turned around, bent down to pick up his broken arm that fell on the deck, and quickly followed Sephiroth to the operating room of the warship.

During this assessment, thirty military cadets in class one were attacked by an elite pirate force. Eleven people were killed and six were disabled. More than half of them were injured. Even instructor Zefa had his right arm cut off...

Although after more than two hours of surgery, Sephiroth finally reattached Zefa's right hand.

but……

According to the most optimistic estimate, after complete recovery, the maximum strength of his right arm will be less than [-]% of its original strength.

Zefa's fighting style is mostly based on double fists, which is why he is nicknamed "Black Wrist".

After his broken arm is reattached, his overall combat power will drop by at least [-] to [-]%...

In addition, due to the large number of masters of the pirate group participating in the death sailing competition here, the other nine classes undergoing assessments also suffered different casualties. A total of thirteen people were disabled and twenty-seven were killed.

During this midterm exam, a total of thirty-eight people were killed and nineteen were disabled, nearly one-fifth of the military cadets were lost, breaking the highest record in history!

Zefa also submitted an application to resign and was willing to accept the trial of a military court.

When the news came back to Marinefando, the entire navy headquarters was shocked!

This is not to say that there were no casualties among military cadets during past assessments, and the Navy Headquarters had already made certain psychological preparations.

but……

More than half of the generals, who symbolized the future of the Navy, were killed or injured. The impact of this incident was really too bad!

Many people took this as an excuse and started to accuse Zefa with various purposes.

Under pressure, Marshal Sengoku had no choice but to remove Zefa from his rank of general, demote him to lieutenant general, and remove him from the position of chief instructor of the opponent's military academy.

However, the Warring States Period directly rejected Zefa's resignation application and retained him on the grounds that he would atone for his sins and continue to serve the navy in the future...

After Zefa stepped down, out of compromise in the Warring States Period, he replaced a lieutenant general named Simon Aman, who came from a noble family, as the chief instructor of the military academy.

After taking charge of the military academy, Lieutenant General Simon Aman immediately began drastic reforms. He directly canceled the two practical assessments that each military academy student would undergo, and instead sent the students to various departments. Serve as a trainee commander and evaluate each cadet based on his or her performance.

This move is not a good thing for the navy with civilian backgrounds. They lose their way to quickly advance to military ranks.

but......

For the navy who come from aristocratic families, the situation is the opposite. With all kinds of resources and connections, they can easily take all kinds of credit into their arms without any effort, allowing them to have higher status after graduating from the military academy. The starting point of military rank.

At the same time, in order to fill the vacancy, the Warring States Period officially promoted Aokiji from a general candidate to a general.

At this point, Akainu, Kizaru, and Aokiji have become the three admirals of the navy, symbols of the navy's supreme combat power.
