"Teacher Zephyr!"
When Hina heard Zephyr's voice in the den-den mushi, she immediately exclaimed.
"Hina, is that you?"
Zephyr wanted to question Rifan, but when he heard Hina's voice, he was also a little stunned.
But soon, he reacted.
"Hina, are you okay over there?"
"How did Rifan and the Black Pearl Pirates treat you?"
"Ain, Binz, Shuzo, and Momonga and Gion, are they all right?"
"Especially you, Rifan really didn't do anything excessive to you, did he?"
Zephyr knows that one of the conditions for the cooperation between Rifan and Marine is to make Hina stronger.
Although Zephyr also hopes to see his students become stronger, he can endure a pirate to make his students stronger.
But he was worried that Rifan's way of making his students stronger would hurt Hina.
After all, one of the ways in which Rifan's magical ability to strengthen others is through physical touch.
Among all the female Marines, Hina can be regarded as one of the most beautiful.
In Zephyr's eyes, Rifan is also a person who likes beauty.
So Zephyr is worried that Rifan will really disown Hina.
In addition, among the information about Rifan, Rifan may use his lifespan to quickly strengthen others.
Zephyr felt that since strengthening will consume Rifan's lifespan, it is impossible to guarantee that it will also consume the lifespan of the strengthened person, that is, Hina.
When Hina heard Zephyr's slightly anxious words, she quickly replied:
"Teacher Zephyr, please rest assured."
"They didn't do anything to us."
"Rifan, abide by the agreement.
"As for Hina, Hina is fine."
After Hina finished speaking, she smiled and glanced at Rifan.
As someone who has a deep bond with Rifan, she can be said to be the person who most hopes to see Rifan and Marine coexist peacefully.
Naturally, Rifan has been kind to Ain, Binz and others until now, which will make Hina happy.
"Hey Zephyr, from your tone, it seems you don't believe me?"
"I think I've done a good job of keeping my words you know~"
"Compared to your old friend Sengoku, my personality is much better."
Rifan shook his head, and said.
"You boy..."
Zephyr wanted to reprimand Rifan, but thinking that Sengoku and Rifan were indeed different in terms of keeping the agreement.
For a while, he couldn't find the words to get Sengoku back.
"Forget it, let's meet and talk about it."
"My ship has come to the outskirts of the Devil's Triangle."
"If you have nothing to do, come and find me at my coordinates."
"It's too easy to get lost in the Devil's Triangle sea area."
"I'm worried that if I get inside, I won't find you so easily."
Zephyr said.
"Hehe, it seems that our Former Admiral Zephyr is not that good at Observation Haki."
"Forget it, since that's the case, then you can give me a coordinate."
"I'll see you later."
Rifan raised the corner of his mouth and said with a smile on his face.
At this moment, he had already seen the relevant rewards after defeating Zephyr, the legendary veteran, Marine guerrilla captain, and Marine Chief Instructor, waving to him.
Seeing that Rifan agreed, Zephyr ignored the other party's words and quickly told Rifan his coordinates.
"Come on, Hina, let's go meet your teacher."
Rifan smiled at Hina and said.
"Wait Rifan!"
"Anything else?"
"Rifan, after meeting Teacher Zephyr, Hina must leave with him."
"Of course, after all, you can't stay with me forever, and your return to Marine is also one of the agreements between me and Marine."
"Then, before leaving, can you give Hina a kiss? After all, after leaving this room, it may not be convenient for Hina to kiss you again."
As Hina said, she raised her finger and pointed to her red lips.
When it came to the end, Hina's voice was inaudible.
Even people watching the live broadcast can only see Hina's lips squirming, but cannot know what she is talking about.
Rifan raised his eyebrows, and looked down at Hina who was looking up at him with her head up slightly.
'A beauty invited me, do I have a reason to refuse?'
Thinking in his heart, Rifan raised the corner of his mouth, cupped Hina's face with both hands, and suddenly brought his head close to Hina's lips.
After a few minutes, Rifan pulled himself away under Hina's rosy expression.
"Don't worry, Hina, I'm sure we'll meet again soon."
Rifan patted Hina on the head and said with a smile on his face.
"Mmm, Hina firmly believes in that."
Hina nodded heavily.
"Hina, can I give you a suggestion?"
Rifan said suddenly.
"suggestion?"
Hina tilted her head, looking a little puzzled.
"That's right!" Rifan nodded, and continued:
"Your strength is definitely not the standard of the Naval Headquarters colonel level now."
"In my opinion, your strength is comparable to that of the Naval Headquarters Commodore."
"Even comparable to some Naval Headquarters Vice Admiral."
"But even so, your strength is still immature."
"In terms of Haki, you just mastered Armament Haki on the first level."
"In terms of Marine Six Styles, you're only proficient, and have not derived the ability of the Six King Gun."
"If you want to become stronger in the future, you need to devote yourself to higher-level battles."
"So, I suggest you go to Zephyr's side."
"Didn't he have a Marine Guerrilla?"
"With him, you can train your ability better."
Hina tilted her head and muttered:
"Teacher Zephyr?"
"Hina understands."
"Since its Rifan proposal."
"Hina will comply."
"After the war ended, Hina will filed an application to the Marshal in order to join the Marine guerrillas and engage in higher-level battles."
Rifan smiled when he heard this:
"Okay, let's get ready first."
"In a little while, you'll meet Zephyr."
After speaking, Rifan packed his clothes and walked towards the door.
'If this world really develops like the original book. '
Zephyr will leave Marine shortly after the Summit War as Whitebeard II becomes Shichibukai. "
'Hopefully, Zephyr will be able to defect Marine with Hina by then."
Rifan thought in his heart.
Immediately, he opened Hina's personal attribute panel.
[Pirates: Black Pearl Pirates (Level 3)]
[Name: Hina]
[Age: 32 years old]
[Crew number: 12]
[Position: Hunter (Skilled)]
[Physical: 20050]
[Physical level: B level]
[Devil Fruit: Cage-Cage Fruit]
[Budo Skill: Marine Six Styles]
[Kendo Skill: None]
[Other skills: Germa 66 exoskeleton]
[Special Ability: Primary Armament Haki]
[props: none]
[Loyalty: 83 (intimate)]
[Bounty: 0]
With such attributes, as long as she doesn't enter the high-end rounds in Summit War, there should be no problem in surviving.
'And with the Germa 66 exoskeleton, not many people should be able to break through Hina's defense. '
Rifan thought of the scene in the original story, where the awakened exoskeleton stood still, even without Armament Haki being attacked by the pacifist Jinbei, and couldn't help but think in his heart
Although the defense of Sanji's exoskeleton is related to his own strong strength, so Hina's current exoskeleton will not be as powerful as Sanji in the original book.
But Hina's opponent is also unlikely to be as strong as Sanji in the middle and late stages of the original book.
Therefore, regarding Hina's safety, Rifan is quite at ease.
Thinking of this, he quickened his pace again, wanting to tell other people on the Black Pearl the news of Zephyr's arrival.
….
…
..
.
The edge of the Devil's Triangle sea area.
A huge Marine warship is standing steadily on the sea.
At the bow of the ship, a strong Marine with a huge mechanical arm stood firmly.
Behind him, Guerilla Marine also carefully inspected the surroundings.
They are all waiting for the arrival of Rifan and his party.
Besides them, on the deck of the warship, there was a male Giant Bound by a huge chain and guarded by a female Giant Marine Vice Admiral.
"Damn it, let me go, you are a Giant, why are you arresting me?!"
The male Giant struggled hard while trying to get rid of the chains on his body.
However, he was defeated by the female Giant Vice Admiral Louise (OC) and Zephyr before, and now he has no possibility of breaking free from the chain.
"What else do you say, why did you suddenly attack us?"
"Don't you know it's an injustice?"
The female Giant Vice Admiral Louise put her hand on the shoulder of the male Giant name Panz Pry, and said angrily.
"I just want to snatch food and cook for those hungry pirates!"
Panz gritted his teeth and spoke.
"You!! In order to cook for the pirates, you want to steal Marine's food?!"
When the female Giant Louise heard this, her heart was even more devastated.
Originally, both she and Zephyr were waiting for Rifan's arrival.
Unexpectedly, Rifan hadn't arrived yet, but a fellow clansman was waiting for them.
It's just that this Giant, like many Giant Warriors, prefers pirates to marines.
Just when Louise wanted to reprimand Panz, there was a loud discussion from Zephyr's direction.
Louise listened carefully, and immediately heard words related to "Rifan" and "Black Pearl".
She understood that this was the arrival of the crew of the Black Pearl Pirates led by Rifan.
"Forget it, you'd better just stay here."
"I still have business to do here, and I will talk to you later."
Louise glared at Panz, got up and walked towards the bow.
What she didn't notice was that after she left, a girl who was only a few centimeters tall and looked like a small toy jumped up from the corner and came to Panz's body.
"Lily, what are you doing here?"
Panz noticed the figure jumping on him, immediately widened his eyes and became nervous.
It's no wonder that he is nervous, the person in front of him is his beloved daughter, Lily Enstomach.
She is also a Giant, but because she ate miniature devil fruit, her body can become the size of a doll or even smaller.
"Dad, keep your voice down, I'm here to save you."
Lily made a silence gesture to her father, and said in a low voice.
