chapter 60

I don't know how long it has been until the red dog's spirit is on the verge of collapse.

Under Mu Feng's control, the red dog has endured 273 deaths.

Fortunately, it is Akadog, with an extreme character and mental will. If it were Kizaru, it would probably lead to a mental breakdown.

As my thoughts shift slightly, the moon reading space collapses.

The world of monthly reading has gone through three days and three nights, but to outsiders, it appears to be only a second.

What everyone witnessed was the red dog rushing towards Mu Feng, suddenly stopping mid-air.

Then, in the next moment, the red dog slumped to the ground.

Sengoku, Garp, Crane, Aokiji, Kizaru, Zephyr, Huo Shao Shan, Daubman, Stolo Berry, Bastille, and marine sergeants at all levels were stunned by what they just witnessed. What just happened!?

In an instant, Admiral Sakazuki fell down!?

Are our eyes playing tricks on us!?

Rubbing their eyes and looking again... the red dog, Aka Inu, was still lying on the ground.

Everyone looked at each other, unable to explain what had just occurred.

"Old bastard, what kind of tricks did the kid Mu Feng use?" Sengoku, clearly confused, looked at Garp beside him and asked.

"I don't know," Garp replied straightforwardly.

Who should I ask if you ask me!?

...................

Mu Feng raised his foot and stepped directly on the red dog's face, but the red dog didn't react at all. Its consciousness was equivalent to dementia.

Pulling out a knife, Mu Feng covered the blade with Armament Haki.

He placed the tip of the knife on the red dog's throat.

Mu Feng hesitated whether to kill the red dog right there.

An Admiral-level powerhouse would undoubtedly provide a significant experience boost. Moreover, the current Aka Inu had completely lost consciousness... killing him wouldn't be too difficult, just a few inches lower with the mammoth blade in his hand.

However, in the end, Mu Feng decided against killing the red dog.

Firstly, there were many marines watching the fight. If he killed the red dog himself and it affected his promotion to Marine Admiral, it would cause a lot of trouble. Compared to the rewards of killing the red dog, the temptation of Zanpakutō was greater for Mu Feng.

Secondly, Sengoku, Garp, Crane, Aokiji, and other senior Marine officials had arrived.

When Sengoku saw Mu Feng place the knife covered in Armament Haki on the red dog's neck, he was half-dead with fright. The red dog was still a Marine Admiral. If Mu Feng killed him, not only would he not be promoted to Admiral, but he would likely be sent directly to Impel Down.

"Boy, don't do it!!" Sengoku shouted urgently.

Using Moonwalk to its limit, he appeared in front of Mu Feng in an instant, still catching his breath.

Mu Feng gave up and retracted the Mammoth Blade into the scabbard around his waist.

Looking at Sengoku, Mu Feng smiled and said, "Look at what you're saying. How could I do anything to the red dog? After all, he's a former Admiral of Headquarters... Marshal Sengoku, you haven't announced the result of the promotion campaign yet."

Sighing, Sengoku gave Mu Feng a helpless look.

Turning around to face the countless marines who had their eyes fixed on him, Sengoku opened his mouth and announced, "I hereby declare... Naval Headquarters Lieutenant General Monkey·D· Mu Feng, the winner of this Admiral promotion challenge. Starting today, Sakazuki will serve as Marine's general counsel, with a rank equal to Admiral! The new Admiral will be Monkey·D· Mu Feng. The code name is..." Sengoku's gaze shifted to Mu Feng.

Mu Feng didn't hesitate; he had already thought about the title.

In other words, the only thing Mu Feng had been thinking about in the past two days was the title of Admiral.

Aokiji, Kizaru, Aka Inu...

Chickens, monkeys, dogs...

The level of these names was simply not on par with the likes of Fujitora and Green Bull. Therefore, if Mu Feng was going to be killed, he wouldn't agree to let Sengoku give him a title.

Blue, yellow, red... These colors represented the Devil Fruit abilities of Aokiji, Kizaru, and Aka Inu. Since Mu Feng hadn't eaten any Devil Fruit, he had a blank slate, represented by white. And the bear, although not the strongest animal in the world of One Piece, was undoubtedly a terrifying beast in Mu Feng's past life.

Bears usually have a gentle personality and don't actively attack others. But if provoked, they become extremely aggressive and terrifying. These traits also aligned with Mu Feng's personality. That's why Mu Feng chose the title "Bai Xiong," which means White Bear.

...................

"The code name is... White Bear! White Bear Admiral!!" Sengoku announced solemnly.

Sengoku's voice echoed throughout the sea, and all the marines heard it.

Admiral promotion in a hundred years!

Mu Feng emerged as the victor!!

Sakazuki... defeated!!

No one spoke, as everyone was still in shock. No one could deny that this century-old Admiral promotion battle had been intense. The entire island had transformed into a sea of magma. But no one could explain how Mu Feng had won.

"Goo... Goo..." More than half of the marines swallowed hard.

Powerful, bizarre, and extremely strange... These were the thoughts that ran through the minds of all the marines after witnessing this Admiral promotion battle. Aokiji, Kizaru, and Aka Inu, all three of them possessed top-tier Logia Devil Fruit powers, and their strength was almost on par. Perhaps the youngest, Aokiji, was slightly weaker than Kizaru and Aka Inu, but the difference was insignificant.

This was essentially the consensus among all the marines.

But after today... this consensus would change.

Mu Feng had defeated the red dog and ascended to the position of Admiral.

In the same vein, it could be concluded that Mu Feng was fully capable of defeating Aokiji and Kizaru. In other words, from today onwards, Mu Feng was undeniably the strongest Admiral!

...................

In the year 1515 of the Haiyuan calendar, Naval Headquarters Lieutenant General Monkey·D· Mu Feng, through the Admiral promotion battle, became the new Admiral of Headquarters. At only seventeen years old, he broke Zephyr's record of becoming a Marine Admiral at the age of thirty-eight, shortening it to twenty-one years.

There had been no one before him, and there would be no one after him.

Three days later, the news spread across the sea... and the world was shaken!!
