"Naval Special Operations Force? [Unintelligible characters]?"
"Zeff, former Marine Admiral and current commander of a pirate guerrilla force, is dead!"
When he uttered the last few words, Sengoku's voice was choked with emotion, filled with uncontrollable rage.
This news exploded like a bombshell among naval officers!
"Zeff? He's dead?"
"impossible!!"
"Vice Admiral Garp, this is fake, right?"
"Lieutenant General Tsuru, this is fake, right?"
The naval officers' faces were filled with disbelief as they turned to Garp or Tsuru, hoping to get a negative answer from them.
However, all they received in response was a nod of agreement.
At that moment, the tough men of the navy shed tears.
Even Kizaru, who was most at odds with Zephyr, had tears welling up behind his sunglasses at this moment.
The scene where Zephyr criticized him for relying too much on his Devil Fruit powers could still be vivid in his mind.
"Lin Feng? It's Lin Feng again!!"
Akainu was enraged, his entire arm billowing in thick smoke, as if it might turn into lava at any moment!
"Lin Feng? Just who is he?"
"He severely injured Borsalino and also killed Professor Zeff?"
Aokiji was the calmest, his eyes cold, and he pondered.
"Lin Feng?! It's him?!"
"You've seen a flying squirrel before?"
"Yeah, I only saw it once, and then the whole ship took off!"
"Damn it! He's the one who caused all that chaos in Sabaody Archipelago!!"
"What exactly is he trying to do?!"
The naval officers were indignant!
"Don't cry!"
"A true man lives by his beliefs to the very end!"
"Isn't he handsome?"
"Zeff was still fighting pirates to the death until the very end. We cannot betray his ideals!"
Garp looked at the tearful crowd below and reprimanded them.
At this moment, Zhan Guo also looked indignant and loudly arranged matters for his generals:
"Yes!"
"Akainu, Onigumo, and Momonga, you three go and bring our righteous hero, Zephyr, home!"
"Slay all pirates encountered along the way! Leave no survivors!"
"Tomorrow, we will hold a grand funeral for him and the fallen naval officers and soldiers!"
"The rest of you, prepare for the war against Whitebeard. After the war, issue a full-scale warrant for the capture of the Lin Feng Pirates!"
"They must be taught what justice is!"
The following day, a lamentation resounded at the Naval Headquarters!
On this day, newsbirds flew across the world, throughout the new globe!
Chapter 48 Everyone's a Villain! A bounty of hundreds of millions, and the Red-Haired Pirates' attention!
"The ocean is watching the beginning of this world."
"The ocean also knows the end of this world."
"So they invited us to set off on the path we should be on."
"Therefore, the direction it points to is the right world."
"Pain and suffering, all have embraced me..."
The Navy Headquarters tolled the death knell and sang a lament (Guidance of the Sea) in remembrance of the lost naval hero, Zephyr!
Even the seagulls on the horizon paused to watch.
Everyone at the Navy Headquarters bowed their heads in silent mourning.
Sengoku, Garp, and Tsuru were also in this group.
After a night of reflection, the three remained calm and did not let anger override their reason.
"Kapu, Tsuru, what do you think Lin Feng and the others are doing?"
"First they killed the Celestial Dragons, and now they've killed Zephyr in the first half of the Grand Line."
"Logically speaking, with such strength, one should go to the New World."
There is no need to stay in the paradise.
In the shadows, Sengoku asked the two people beside him.
"Who knows?"
"What a pity about Zephyr, he's finally going to reunite with his family."
Karp shook his head; he didn't want to think about such things at all.
His grandson Ace is currently en route to Marine Headquarters and will be executed soon.
Purpose: unclear.
"The only thing we know is that he is an enemy of our navy and the world government!"
Lieutenant General Tsuru did not echo this at this time.
"Sigh... I hope this guy doesn't cause any trouble during his fight with Whitebeard!"
"After the war, we will definitely settle accounts properly!"
On this day, [Big News] Morgans' World Economic Herald was once again printing newspapers at a frenzy!
Because the news that day was too explosive!
After Lin Feng and his crew wreaked havoc on the Sabaody Archipelago and slaughtered the Celestial Dragons, and after the Navy publicly executed Ace, there was a bombshell news story about the Navy and Lin Feng's pirate crew!
Naval Special Operations Forces? (The last part, "巨伦踩绩蟨," is a nonsensical string of characters and doesn't translate directly.)
Former Navy Admiral Zephyr has been killed in action!
The culprit is...
The Lin Feng Pirates!!
This news is enough to shake the entire ocean!
The previous news involved the Celestial Dragons, and there was pressure from the World Government.
Therefore, most people only remember Lin Feng's pirate crew for causing havoc in the Sabaody Archipelago and believe that the story of killing Celestial Dragons is fabricated.
Who would believe that a respectable person would challenge the authority of the Celestial Dragons?
However, I believed it as soon as the news was published!
Slaughtering the Celestial Dragons and killing a former Marine Admiral!
This is arguably the worst news since the establishment of the World Government!
Lin Feng Pirates!
This infamy resounds throughout the entire ocean!
To amplify the impact of this event, Morgans went so far as to label Lin Feng's pirate crew the "most evil pirate crew" on the front page!
Along with the newspaper, a bounty was also issued by the Navy—
