Chapter 82

At this moment, Warcury felt that he was alone. He could not count on Saturn, who was in the same boat with Garling, but the remaining three Five Elders were not very reliable.

Nusjuro began to wipe the long sword in his arms again. Warcury really wanted to put the sword in his mouth.

Saturn was still asking questions relentlessly.

"Saint Warcury, what do you mean by not speaking?"

Warcury clenched his fists and squeezed out his voice from between his teeth.

"I just think it's not a good idea for Saint Carl, the heir of the Figarland family, to stay in the Navy all the time, so I sent someone to observe him, and it would be best if we could find a chance to bring him back to Mary Geoise."

This lame excuse made the other Five Elders frown, and Garling laughed, saying,

"Then I have to thank you for your concern for my nephew?"

Warcury did not dare to say anything after being taunted, choosing to remain silent.

Garling did not force him anymore, after all, he was almost out of his temper, and today's incident was a warning to Warcury, telling the old man not to waste his evil thoughts on Carl again.

Getting up from the chair, Garling waved his hand and said casually,

"That may really be a misunderstanding, but my nephew will not bother you, Warcury, in the future. If there is a similar misunderstanding again, it will not end so well."

As he said this, Garling walked to the door, suddenly stopped, turned around, and smiled,

"By the way, Saint Warcury, the man you sent to the Navy, I think his name is Aramaki, my nephew is very optimistic about him, and he also intends to join, so let him stay in the Navy. The sea is also quite chaotic now, don't waste talents."

After saying that, without waiting for Warcury to speak, Garling disappeared at the door. The other Four Elders looked at Warcury, said their goodbyes, and left one after another.

When Warcury was the only one left in the meeting room, he suddenly slammed the table and gritted his teeth, saying,

"Damn Aramaki! That Woods-Woods Fruit was wasted…"

In the Naval Academy:

"A-choo!"

Aramaki, who was training with Aokiji, suddenly sneezed. Aokiji didn't brake in time and punched Aramaki in the face, causing him to stagger and almost fall to the ground.

"Ah la la! I'm so sorry, Aramaki, I didn't mean it!"

Aokiji hurriedly stood at attention and looked at Aramaki with an apologetic look. Aramaki glared at Aokiji fiercely, waved his hand, and released a vine to whip him away, cursing inwardly,

"Damn! What bad luck! Why did I have to meet this idiot! Huh?"

Aramaki was cursing when he suddenly felt his feet getting cold. He looked down and found that his feet were frozen to the ground. A layer of ice slowly approached, and a human-shaped ice sculpture emerged from the ice. It was Aokiji, who was just beaten away by him.

Aokiji bent his waist and accused him as soon as he saw him.

"Aramaki, we are doing physical training. How can you use the power of the fruit?"

Aramaki rolled his eyes weakly, shook his legs to crack the ice, and then punched Aokiji in the stomach with an iron fist wrapped in Armament Haki. Aokiji's eyes widened.

Before he could recover, Aramaki's fists hit him again like raindrops, and he said as he punched,

"Training, training! You want physical training, right? I will satisfy you today!"

The poor boy Aokiji had not yet mastered Armament Haki and was soon beaten black and blue by Aramaki, shouting,

"Stop, stop, stop! I don't know how to use Armament Haki! This is not fair!"

Aramaki had no intention of stopping and continued to strike, dissing Dragon at the same time.

"Fairness? This is the word I hate the most! Go talk to that idiot Dragon about fairness!"

Huh!

A gust of wind blew by, and Dragon suddenly appeared behind Aramaki and said coldly,

"Who are you talking about?"

"Huh?"

Aramaki raised his eyebrows, turned around, and saw Dragon, immediately saying sarcastically,

"Hey? Isn't this Dragon? You look like you've improved yourself?"

Dragon narrowed his eyes, glanced at Aokiji, who was covering his face and breathing heavily, and said,

"What's the point of bullying a newbie who doesn't know how to use Armament Haki? How about we compete?"

He was very angry with Aramaki that day, and hearing him talk behind his back made his frustration burst out.

Aramaki raised his chin and said arrogantly,

"Okay! To be honest, I wanted to deal with you the day I joined the Navy!"

"Same for me."

As soon as the words fell, a gust of wind suddenly rose beside Dragon, making Aramaki's face tense. Crack, crack!

The ground split, and countless thick tree roots emerged from the cracks, connecting to Aramaki's feet.

The duel between the two was intense, and the attention of the students on the training ground was all drawn to them.

Aokiji looked at the two with a confused expression, thinking,

"What's going on? Why are these two suddenly fighting?"

Just as he was stunned, a gravitational force suddenly pulled him back. He turned and found Carl looking at him with a smile.

He quickly said,

"Senior Carl, Aramaki and Dragon are about to fight. They are not training. You should go and stop them!"

Not long ago, after Carl's battle with Dragon and the others, Zephyr allowed Carl to instruct other students in the school, considering that Carl's strength was enough to be a Vice Admiral. When Zephyr was not there, all matters in the school could be temporarily managed by Carl.

After all, whether it was physical skills or Haki, Carl already had the qualifications. As a Rear Admiral himself, all the students respected him.

With Carl around, Zephyr had more free time, but Kong wouldn't let such an important figure idle at the Headquarters and often gave him tasks.

Zephyr, originally a retired Admiral, had found new vigor after accepting Carl's group of students and gladly took on missions.

Today, Zephyr was not at the school, so as the hidden second-in-command, Carl naturally had to manage.

Carl glanced at Dragon and Aramaki, who were facing off, patted Aokiji on the shoulder, and said,

"Don't panic, I'll see how Dragon is recovering first."

Aokiji was puzzled and hesitantly asked,

"But they both used their fruit abilities. It could seriously damage the venue…"

"Relax, I'll observe the situation first, and if they get too rowdy, I'll intervene."
