chapter 98

The rain is getting colder.

Zephyr's heart was getting warmer and warmer.

That's right,

Adam Rice was the most talented navy he had ever seen in his life.

His potential in terms of strength is not inferior to that of Sakaski and the other three.

And besides that,

Zephyr also saw Adam Rice's strategic and political wit.

That is,

Just give him enough time to grow up,

The future Adam Rice will be an excellent navy with the three navy veterans of Zephyr, Karp and Sengoku!

At that time, he will have the fame comparable to Zephyr, the combat power of Garp, and the wisdom of the Sengoku!

It is absolutely impossible for Zephyr to watch such a man go astray!

He must hold on to Adam Rice and hold on to a silver lining for the future of the Navy and justice!

So even if it is to abandon his old face, he will not hesitate.

The rain soaked everything and made my cheeks hurt.

wind and thunder,

Lightning and thunder flashed indefinitely.

Adam Rice looked at Zephyr who was full of sincerity in front of him, his lips pursed tightly.

He learned a lot of things from Zephyr's words.

have expectations for themselves,

have the responsibility to shoulder,

There is a desire to inherit...

If you change it to someone, if you encounter such a situation, it is estimated that he will become passionate about justice.

Too bad Adam Rice is no ordinary person.

He has always been a very selfish person.

One who climbed up from the bottom of Navy, experienced betrayal, faced countless life and death and open and secret battles, Adam Rice has long been unfazed by such a big talk about protecting the world.

It is rare for him to reluctantly maintain a sense of reason and goodwill towards the outside world.

"Sorry, Mr. Zephyr, I can't do it"."

He opened his mouth, expressionless.

Zephyr was stunned for a moment, then raised his head in astonishment.

Adam Rice continued:

"As I said, the end of a hero is often a tragedy. I don't want to be a hero, I just want to live well, better than anyone else."

"I can't do the level of sacrificing yourself for countless civilians in the world like you, and I won't be able to do it in the future."

"You want me to protect this world, it's too difficult, too unrealistic."

Thinking of countless pictures in Zephyrs life,

lost his wife and children,

Didn't kill pirates,

All the students died in battle except for ain and binz ,

Leaving the navy for the justice in his heart,

In the end, he died tragically at the hands of his best students,

Buried by the navy who he have given his life...

Such an ending, Adam Rice does not want it.

Zeohyr is very respectable person,

He taught each of his students selflessly,

Adhering to the justice of the heart, keep kindness and tenderness to this dirty and chaotic world.

But for so many years on this sea,

A Zephyr came out.

There is only one, no one else.

But in the end he ended up like that.

it is not worth it?

yes,

It's not worth it.

This wolrd is really not worth it.

"I'm sorry to disappoint you, all I can say is, you're seeing the wrong eye."

Zephyr shook his head stubbornly and said:

"No, I saw that right."

"The old man has never lost sight of him in his life."

"You can, Adam Rice."

Adam Rice still shook his head,

"Sorry, I can't do it."

Zephyr was stunned, and in the depths of those eyes filled with the vicissitudes of the years, a bottomless loneliness gradually appeared.

Adam Rice paused.

Looking at Zephyr, who was wearing a tattered military uniform and standing in the rain like a savage, for some reason, his heart softened.

He remembered the past ten days,

Remembering Zeohyr teachings,

I remembered countless times when I was seriously injured and couldn't move.

He remembered the scenes where he demonstrated and taught himself of Haki for time and time...

he asked:

"¨" If one day, you will die for justice, what will you do? "

Zephyr smiled disapprovingly:

"Then die."

Adam Rice gave him a deep look, and suddenly said:

"If someone kills you one day, I will kill him to avenge you, no matter who it is."

Zephyr suddenly laughed:

"Then you stinky boy grow up quickly, so that no one in this world dares to kill me!"

Adam Rice nodded heavily, then stopped talking and turned around.

He stood quietly at the bow of the boat, his aura was like a sharp-edged sword, facing the wind and rain.

Zephyr stared blankly at this young man, who seemed to be carrying the wind and rain in this world, and a mellow, alcoholic smile gradually formed on the corner of his mouth.

Adam Rice, you said the old man took a wrong vision.

Is it really so?

actually,

There is one more thing the old man didn't tell you.

Everyone has their own mission in this sea, that's right.

But ah,

The mission of man is not for you to choose freely.

You didn't choose this sea,

But the sea chose you.

Nor did you choose justice,

But justice chose you.
