Chereads / One Piece: Starting in God Valley as a Slave / Chapter 23 - Chapter 23: Enrollment

Chapter 23 - Chapter 23: Enrollment

Hearing Zephyr calling him, Kizaru suddenly felt a headache and muttered,

"What's the matter with the old man? He doesn't let anyone rest on his days off!"

Akainu had already taken off his shirt and was lying on the ground doing push-ups with one hand. Kizaru rubbed his hands and asked,

"Sakazuki, come with me!"

"No, Teacher Zephyr just called you."

"How heartless, I just treated you to a barbecue!"

"It was invited by Carl."

"Hey, that's almost it~"

Seeing that Sakazuki had no intention of going, Kizaru had no choice but to give up and walk towards the door with his head hanging down.

Kizaru and Zephyr don't like each other. In Kizaru's opinion, it's not a good thing for Zephyr to suddenly find him.

The truth was exactly what he thought.

As soon as he entered the office, Zephyr saw Kizaru and scolded him directly,

"Borsalino! I remember telling you not to use your abilities indiscriminately outside, right? I've been getting complaints from all the people!"

Kizaru lowered his head, rolled his eyes, and muttered,

"Whoever is so troubled!"

Zephyr slammed the table,

"What did you say?! Stand at attention!"

Kizaru curled his lips, straightened his body awkwardly, and shouted,

"Yes! Teacher Zephyr, everything you said is right!"

"Don't do this to me! Since everything I said is right, why haven't you listened to it? What is Sakazuki doing?"

"Report Mr. Zephyr! He's exercising!"

"Hmph, you still have the nerve to say that? As a user with abilities, Sakazuki has always paid great attention to physical exercise. How about you?"

"Report to Teacher Zephyr! I also want to exercise, but you are looking for me. I think Teacher Zephyr's matters are the most important!"

Looking at Kizaru who looked like a dead pig in front of him, Zephyr rubbed his forehead and said helplessly,

"Forget it, no matter how much you say, it's useless. You'll know after you suffer a loss on this."

"Report to Teacher Zephyr! Can I leave then?"

Zephyr waved his hand like he was shooing away flies and said impatiently,

"Let's go, let's continue training tomorrow, you'd better not be late for me!"

"Yes!"

Kizaru gave an extremely standard military salute, turned around, and left in goose-step, stamping on the floor with a crackling sound.

Zephyr crossed his arms and watched Kizaru leave the office. He sighed, took out a document from the drawer, looked at the photo of Carl on it, and said to himself,

"Another Logia, I hope you don't give me as much headache as Borsalino."

Sengoku the Buddha has handed over the information about Carl to Zephyr and highlighted the information about Carl to him. Naturally, he means that he wants Zephyr to focus on Carl, a good young man.

In fact, there is no need for Sengoku to say that Zephyr also knows the significance of a powerful Logia user to the Marines. As for Carl's age, he has not even thought about it.

Since Zephyr left Marine Admiral and became an Instructor, his mentality has also changed a lot.

Now he puts all his energy into educating students.

Especially for good prospects like Kizaru and Akainu, he devoted even more energy.

Even if this guy Kizaru often confronts him, the most he can do is scold him. Of course, this is also because Kizaru's own talent is strong enough.

Although Kizaru is just doing nothing all day long, Zephyr knows it well. Even if Kizaru is not a Glint-Glint Fruit user, based on his current physical skills and swordsmanship, basically no one in the school is his opponent except Akainu.

Zephyr often thinks how great it would be if Kizaru could train half as hard as Akainu!

The reason why he is always so harsh to Kizaru is not because he hates Kizaru!

On the day of registration, Babs Rear Admiral came to Carl's residence early and led them to Marine School.

After sending Carl and the others to the gate of Marine School, Babs stopped and said with a smile,

"I can only send it here. After entering, go straight to the office building. The top floor is the Zephyr Instructor's office."

Carl shook hands with Babs and said,

"Babs Rear Admiral, I'm sorry to trouble you at this time."

"Haha, this is what I should do. The three of you are all rare talents. Your future achievements will definitely not be comparable to mine. When the time comes, I will have to call you officers!"

After saying that, several people looked at each other and smiled, Babs waved his hand, turned, and left.

All three entered the school. On the way, Carl noticed that there were many students doing physical training on the training ground. Among them was an acquaintance, Akainu, who had just had a barbecue together not long ago.

Akainu stood alone in the corner of the training ground, with various training equipment placed around him. At this moment, he was training with a barbell.

Just looking at the size of the barbell, it's not something that a normal person can lift. It's obviously specially made.

Such a barbell is like a toy in Akainu's hands, and there is no sense of any difficulty on his body.

The students who passed by him were already not surprised. They only glanced at him and continued to do their own things.

Akainu seemed to realize that someone had been looking at him. He looked up and saw the three Carl standing outside the venue.

Ginny waved to Kuma, while Carl gave a thumbs up to Akainu on the field.

Akainu threw away the barbell in his hand, and the barbell fell to the ground with a dull sound.

The people around him glanced at this, and then they were stunned.

Because Sakazuki, who had always had a poker face in their minds, was actually smiling and waving in one direction.

Although the smile looked a little stiff, it could be seen that Akainu was trying his best to smile.

They followed Akainu's line of sight and saw Carl, and immediately started talking,

"Unfamiliar face, who is that?"

"I don't know him. He must be a newcomer here to report."

"Are there any new people joining at this time? It seems that the qualifications are good. The enrollment standards of this class are not low!"

"Well, it seems that he also knows Sakazuki. Except for Borsalino, he usually doesn't talk to anyone else at all!"

"I guess they are fellow villagers. Tsk, tsk, it must be another monster!"

"Shhh! Stop talking. Have you forgotten those people last time? Sakazuki caught him saying bad things about Borsalino, and he was beaten so hard that he lay in the hospital for half a month!"

As soon as these words came out, the discussion stopped abruptly.

They remember that those people were quite smart at the time and used words to irritate Sakazuki, saying that he would only rely on his ability and don't use his ability if he has the ability.

The strength of those few people is pretty good among the students, and they feel that if Akainu don't use his abilities, they still have a good chance of winning.

However, the reality is cruel. Akainu does have powers, but he used a couple of fists to beat people who spoke ill of him behind his back until they fainted on the spot.

This also lets everyone know that the gap between them and Akainu is more than just a Devil Fruit.

Outside the court, Carl was about to continue walking forward after saying hello to Akainu. Suddenly, he stopped and suddenly raised his hand to grab him.

Zephyr, who appeared behind Carl at some point, looked at his grabbed arm in surprise and praised,

"Nice reaction, you must be Carl."
