Chapter 47: The Title of Chief

Light and darkness intertwined before his eyes, and the sacred cloak fluttered in the wind.

Kuzan stood there in a daze, looking at the heavy back in front of him, as if something hot was gradually pouring out of his chest.

"Zeff... Teacher..."

This picture seemed to reveal some kind of shocking power, deeply engraved in the deepest part of his heart.

After five seconds, the scorching light slowly subsided.

The wind disappeared, and thick smoke rolled up from the ground.

The navy had already fallen to the ground at this time, supported their bodies with sabers, and looked at the training ground with shocked faces.

The thick smoke obscured their vision.

"What happened?"

"Did they escape?"

"What kind of power is that..."

"This is actually a colleague who participated in the training camp with us!?"

"..."

Each of their faces was full of doubts.

Soon the smoke dissipated under the breeze, and the scene in the training ground came into their eyes.

Their eyes widened instantly, their expressions horrified.

A huge burnt black groove stretched across the ground of the school field, with wisps of swaying flames still remaining in the groove, spreading from Darren's feet all the way to the end of his sight, and stopped abruptly in front of a burly figure.

"Teacher Zefa..."

"It's Teacher Zefa!!"

"He saved Kuzan!!"

"..."

The navy shouted in surprise, and the huge stone hanging in their hearts was finally put down.

I saw the majestic Zefa standing in front of Kuzan like an insurmountable mountain, lifting him up with one hand.

The index finger covered by the armed color domineering pressed against a rapidly rotating coin.

The black luster on the coin slowly faded like a liquid, and the high heat generated by the friction with the air emitted wisps of white smoke.

"It's a genius idea to wrap the Armament Haki around the coin."

Zeffa grabbed the coin that lost its kinetic energy and fell from the air with one hand, raised his head and looked at the breathless and pale Commodore. After a moment of silence, an admiring smile gradually appeared on his face.

"Darren, how did you come up with this idea?"

Darren took a deep breath and calmed his disordered breathing.

The driving and use of all Devil Fruit abilities will consume the physical strength of the Devil Fruit ability user.

This is the iron law of this sea.

My Magnet-Magnet Fruit is no exception.

And this move of mine, through the form of "magnetic field overload", consumes most of the physical energy reserves, and instantly increases the magnetic field loaded on the coin to an exaggerated and violent intensity, thus achieving the power of an electromagnetic gun.

And most importantly, after wrapping the Armament Haki around the coin, the physical strength consumed by this move far exceeded Darren's expectations, at least more than twice that of not wrapping the Haki.

But from the power of the previous attack, it can be seen that my idea is absolutely correct.

Armament Haki can cover and wrap around weapons, and can stay for a short time after leaving the body.

According to Darren, in the original plot, the female warriors of the Amazon Lily of Nine Snake Island would wrap the Armament Haki around bows and arrows to increase the penetration of arrows.

However, once the weapon is out of contact with the body, the amount of Haki wrapped on it will decrease at a very fast speed and finally reduce to zero.

"It was just an attempt, but I didn't expect it to be successful."

Darren wiped the sweat from his forehead and smiled.

Since Zefa is present, he can use his full strength unscrupulously and even break his own limits without worrying about hurting Kuzan.

The name of "Black Arm" Zefa was once a nightmare in the eyes of countless pirates.

This can be seen from the fact that Zefa blocked his ultimate electromagnetic cannon with one finger.

Zefa laughed when he heard it.

What a madman...

He turned around, patted Kuzan who was still in a daze, and said with a smile:

"What's wrong, Kuzan, are you okay?"

Looking at the happy smile on Zefa's face, Kuzan suddenly came back to his senses.

He smiled and scratched the back of his head,

"I'm fine, Darren's strength is really too strong, I lost."

Kuzan looked at Darren with a sincere and amazed look on his face.

The threat of life and death just now...

Kuzan thought to himself that he could never avoid Darren's attack.

What would be the end of not being able to avoid it?

The coin wrapped with armed color domineering...I guess my body will "explode" in an instant.

Well, it really exploded.

"You are already good enough, and Sakaski and Borsalino back then were not necessarily better than you."

Zeffa comforted him earnestly.

While speaking, he glanced at Darren.

It's not that the combat power displayed by Darren at this time is stronger than Sakaski and Borsalino.

After the training in the training camp, the two guys have grown up.

Although Darren is strong at this time, he is still a long way from the two of them.

In the final analysis, Sakaski and Borsalino entered the training camp earlier than Darren and Kuzan.

Of course, as time goes by, maybe one day Darren will catch up with them soon.

After the observation just now, Zefa is confident that after his teaching, Darren and Kuzan will have a rapid and explosive growth in strength during the period of training in the training camp.

Hearing Zefa's praise, Kuzan's eyes glowed with fire again.

"Hahahaha, did you hear that, Darren!"

"Although I lost to you this time, I will definitely catch up!"

He gave Darren a thumbs up.

"Don't be careless!!"

Darren smiled and said:

"Of course not."

With a "monster" like you chasing me closely behind, how could I be careless, Kuzan...

"Okay!!"

Zeffa laughed with satisfaction.

"Everyone... Gather!!"

He shouted loudly.

As soon as the voice fell,

all the navy present tidied their uniforms, trotted to the training ground with a solemn look, and formed a simple square formation in front of Zefa.

The brilliant sunlight shone down, and the young, youthful, sunny and warm faces seemed to be shining with golden light.

Swish!

They raised their hands in unison and saluted Zefa.

"Teacher Zefa!"

Zefer's face showed a proud smile, and he said loudly:

"Then I will now officially announce the top five names of this year's elite officer training camp..."

"Fifth place, Huoshaoshan!"

"Fourth place, Kaji!"

"Third place, Gion!"

"Second place, Kuzan!"

"And our chief..."

He paused here, and his eyes fell on the black-haired navy at the front of the crowd.

"——Rogers Darren!!"

"Now, let's congratulate Darren for winning this honor."

After the voice fell, everyone applauded vigorously and looked at Darren with conviction.

Well deserved!

"Well, very good..."

Zefer waved his hand, and the applause gradually stopped.

"Of course, this ranking is only temporary."

His eyes swept across the faces of everyone present.

"During this period of time in the training camp, all of you can challenge the top five seats. Those who succeed in the challenge will directly obtain the seat of the challenged!"

"Don't complain, this is life."

"It's like this in the military academy, and it's also like this in life. If you relax a little, you will be surpassed by others."

"So..."

"Keep getting stronger!"

"Keep running!"

"Keep fighting!"

"I will always stand behind you, no matter what your achievements will be on this sea in the future, no matter whether you can become the pillar of the navy or even the admiral of the navy..."

Zeff took a deep breath, and his voice shook the world.

"As long as you still fight for justice in your heart, I will always be proud of you."

He grinned.

"...My disciples."

————

This day.

The third elite officer training camp of the Navy Headquarters officially opened.

The one who temporarily took the title of "chief" was the admiral from the North Sea... Rogers Darren!
