Confronted by Zephyr.
Rifan didn't express anything.
After seeing Rifan did not stop her from talking to Zephyr.
Then she briefly and quickly told Zephyr what happened after they chased the Marine traitor Gasparde and encountered the Black Pearl Pirates.
Opposite the den-den mushi.
Zephyr, who was heading towards Naval Headquarters on his own ship, frowned more and more.
He never imagined that temporarily handing over the management of the Marine guerrillas to Shuzo and Momonga would allow his cherished students to encounter the Black Pearl Pirates.
And depending on the situation, Rifan doesn't seem to plan to bring them back yet.
There was even a plan to inflict more injuries on Momonga.
Thinking about it.
Zephyr's brow furrowed deeply.
"Rifan, don't forget your current situation."
"If you want to be a Shichibukai, don't do anything stupid."
"I advise you, let Ain and the others go now."
"There's no need for them to stay with you until you become a Shichibukai."
Zephyr said with a serious face.
Through his old friend Tsuru, Zephyr has a fairly full understanding of Rifan's liking for women.
His student Ain, although young, may not be as attractive as Hina and Gion.
But also a good woman.
So Zephyr is worried.
If Ain stays with Rifan, she will be bullied by Rifan.
Zephyr felt that Rifan even planned to seriously injure Momonga.
Then the possibility of him bullying Ain is naturally higher.
Hearing Zephyr's words, Rifan laughed:
"What you said makes sense."
"However, Zephyr, the Marine guerrilla ship that Gasparde snatched has been destroyed.
"And Momonga Vice Admiral and Captain Shuzo's ship were also destroyed."
"Even if I let them go now, they won't be able to find a suitable way to leave in this vast sea.
"Not to mention that your students Ain and Binz are Devil Fruit devil fruit users."
"If I send them off the ship now, the probability of their death is too great."
"Zephyr, I'm giving them a ride on my Black Pearl for free now, isn't that considered a favor?"
Rifan also plans to use Ain and Binz to force Zephyr to meet him.
Of course he couldn't just let Ain and the others leave like this.
If possible, he even planned to let Zephyr personally come to the Devil's Triangle Sea Territory after he defeated Moria.
In this way, he can exchange the related rewards of copy space by defeating Zephyr, the legendary veteran of Marine, more quickly.
"Rifan, doesn't your Black Pearl have a lifeboat?"
Zephyr asked dully.
"Of course there are, but I'm not obliged to lend you Marine, am I?"
Rifan's words made Zephyr even more depressed.
After thinking for a while, he said seriously:
"In that case, tell me your location, and I will arrange for someone to pick you up right now."
The Marine guerrillas are very large, and they own more than two ships.
And generally Marine guerrillas operate in groups.
Zephyr believes that since Momonga and Gasparde's ship will appear near the Black Pearl.
Then the other Marine Guerrilla ships will be not far away.
However, Rifan's answer was to ask the forensic doctor.
"Sorry, Zephyr."
"I'm in a hurry now, and I don't have any free time to wait for your people to arrive."
"If you have something else to do, I think we can wrap up our chat.
"Anyway, Ain and the others have already reported to you that they are safe."
"Miss Ain, can I trouble you to hang up the den-den mushi?"
Rifan said, looked at Ain with a smile on his face, and pointed to the den-den mushi in her hand.
Ain naturally didn't want to hang up the call right now.
She held the den-den mushi tightly between her hands, and took two steps back nervously, trying to stay away from the smiling Rifan.
Zephyr on the opposite side of the den-den mushi also became nervous after hearing Rifan's words.
"Rifan, you bastard, don't mess around!"
"Zephyr, when did I mess around, don't frame me or i'll sue you for defamation~"
"Since you have no intention of messing around, why don't you hand over Ain and the others? Don't tell me you want to take action against Ain?!"
"How come! Zephyr, I respect you as a hero, but isn't it unkind of you to frame me like this?"
"Then you can stay where you are and wait for our people to pick them up, or give Ain and the others a lifeboat."
"Forget it, we've already talked about this issue before."
"Then what do you want to do, Rifan? It's impossible to let Ain and the others stay on your Black Pearl, right?"
"Why not? Well, let me make a suggestion. Zephyr, it's better for Ain and the others to wait with Hina and Gion to go back to your Naval Headquarters together."
"Rifan, do you really want to take my students hostage?"
"I just don't want to waste time, after all, I will be able to complete the agreement with you Marine soon."
"Huh?! Are you already going to defeat Shichibukai?"
Rifan's words immediately reminded Zephyr of the Shichibukai agreement.
"That's right!"
"I won't say much, Zephyr."
"Don't worry, you don't have to wait too long."
After Rifan finished speaking, he didn't wait for Ain's response.
His body turned into an afterimage and passed by Ain's side.
Wait until Ain reacts.
The den-den mushi in her hand has come to Rifan's hand, and the call has been hung up.
"Okay, the call time is over."
"I will keep this den-den mushi for the time being."
"So Miss Ain, you won't worry about it." Rifan showed Ain an extremely caring smile in her eyes.
And Ain also showed a look of fear.
This made Rifan a little helpless.
After all, if possible, he would also like to chat with Ain about life, massage and other things.
However, Ain has always had such an expression, which made Rifan a little bit reluctant to make contact.
After much deliberation, he can only think about the business first.
"Let's go, Vice Admiral Momonga."
"In this room, even if you want to use your ability, you won't be able to use it."
"After we go to the deck, it's not too late for you to fight with Vivi."
Rifan turned around, looked at Momonga and said with a smile on his face.
"This is your territory, so naturally "you have the final say on what to do.
"But Rifan, I'm still injured."
"You're not going to let me fight Princess Vivi just like this?"
Momonga asked, frowning.
