I Punch the Tailed Beast Ball

The process of the world conscription was a little simpler than Nagasawa had imagined.

Of course, it might also be because Garp and Sengoku’s recommendation saved a lot of trouble.

In short, Nagasawa only showed a small hand and casually obtained the highest evaluation. Then, not long after, he received the news from Garp and Sengoku that he had already become an Admiral.

”It feels like it came so easily,” Nagasawa sighed.

How did he somehow become an Admiral? Clearly, at first, he wanted to find the Revolutionary Army, help overthrow the Celestial Dragons, and overthrow the World Government, so how did he become a Navy Admiral?

Wasn’t it just meeting Garp, simply having a fight before becoming acquainted, then later suppressing Sengoku? How did he become a Navy Admiral?

”This era is too special. Otherwise, under normal circumstances, even if one joined the Navy from childhood and possessed powerful strength, becoming an Admiral in one’s thirties would already be considered fast,” Sengoku sighed.

Seeing Nagasawa become an Admiral right after joining the Navy, Sengoku remembered himself. When he was young, he had made outstanding contributions to the Navy and was promoted step by step until he became an Admiral. Comparing people really angered people to death.

”I remember there was another person who also directly became an Admiral, right? Was it Issho or Aramaki?” Nagasawa asked.

The world conscription was not only to fill the vacancies for Admirals, but also to replenish the Navy’s lost troops, so there were actually many people.

And Issho and Aramaki were both people who displayed monster-like strength during this period, so it was not strange that Nagasawa knew their names.

In the original work, it was the two of them who became Admirals. Issho’s epithet was Fujitora, while Aramaki was Ryokugyu.

Of course, after Nagasawa made his move, he was also called a monster.

However, compared with Ryokugyu and Fujitora, Nagasawa still had another battle record, which was suppressing Sengoku in battle. This had been seen by many marines.

Because the former Fleet Admiral being suppressed by a stranger was truly too ridiculous, it spread extremely quickly. Many people with close relationships to Sengoku came to ask Sengoku whether this was a rumor and whether they should send people to stop it or something.

However, after retiring, Sengoku had become much more amiable. He also did not mind becoming the stepping stone for Nagasawa’s fame and cheerfully said that it was true, then told them not to mind.

”It is Issho,” Sengoku answered.

”Issho is also a very good person. With you two becoming Navy Admirals in the new era, I also look forward even more to the Navy’s future development,” Sengoku said with a smile while stroking his long white beard.

He had also interacted with Issho and felt that Issho was a very good person, feeling a little similar to Aokiji.

Sengoku had also interacted with Aramaki. Aramaki gave Sengoku the feeling of someone like Akainu, pursuing absolute justice.

Interestingly, Aramaki and Issho’s relationship was not bad, at least it looked that way now.

”Aramaki was granted the rank of Vice Admiral, and then became an Admiral candidate.”

”So that’s how it is.” Nagasawa revealed a thoughtful expression.

He was not very familiar with Ryokugyu, but he was very clear about Fujitora.

Nagasawa felt that Fujitora was one of the marines who could be won over to the Revolutionary Army’s side.

Because Fujitora’s justice was the justice of the people. Even when carrying out missions, compared with pursuing pirates, he cared more about the safety of innocent civilians.

Even if it was an order from Akainu, who had already become Fleet Admiral, Fujitora would still disobey for the sake of the people.

He hated the Seven Warlords, this kind of legal pirate, and racked his brains to directly uproot the Seven Warlords system.

Since he cared about the people, then what could be better for the people than removing the malignant tumor known as the Celestial Dragons?

What could be better for the people than ending this chaotic era?

Nagasawa believed that if Fujitora truly stood on the side of the people, then he would definitely participate in the revolution.

After Navy Headquarters confirmed the two new Admirals, the first thing it did was gather the current Admirals to take photos and release news.

The current Three Admirals also gathered together for the first time.

”What frightening newcomers have come. I heard that even Mr. Sengoku was suppressed.” Kizaru smiled with his trademark obscene smile.

”It was a draw, and Senior Sengoku also did not use his fruit ability. It does not explain anything,” Nagasawa said modestly.

Kizaru was still as obscene as what he saw during the Summit War, without any change.

Fujitora did not participate in the conversation between the two, but also listened to their conversation with interest, trying to understand his new colleague.

”Speaking of which, before I joined the Navy, I once heard of your legend, Admiral Kizaru. Now that I have seen you in person, you truly live up to your reputation.” Suddenly, Nagasawa grabbed Kizaru’s hand and said enthusiastically.

”Oh?” Kizaru thought Nagasawa was his fan, and a surprised expression appeared on his obscene old face. He had not expected that someone who muddled through work like him would actually have fans.

Nagasawa talked nonsense for half a minute, and after successfully plucking the fruit, he directly let go and began chatting casually in one or two sentences.

Looking at Nagasawa, who suddenly was no longer enthusiastic, Kizaru was somewhat unable to figure it out.

”In the Great Pirate Era, the people are living in deep water and scorching fire, yet the World Government actually still introduced legal pirates like the Seven Warlords. It is truly infuriating,” Nagasawa suddenly talked about the Seven Warlords problem.

”Admiral Nagasawa, this cannot be said,” Kizaru raised an eyebrow.

Fujitora, who had originally not spoken, revealed an approving expression and said, ”The Seven Warlords system indeed has too much that is unreasonable. This system should be abolished!”

Fujitora was an honest person. He thought that since he had now become a marine, he had to do something for the people. The Seven Warlords were his target.

It was not as simple as pulling down one or two bastard pirates, but abolishing this system itself!

”Admiral Issho, so you also think this way? That is truly wonderful.” Nagasawa looked at Fujitora with great surprise, as if he had found a fellow fan.

Nagasawa very naturally placed his hand on Fujitora’s shoulder, then excitedly talked to Fujitora about his dream of abolishing the Seven Warlords, this calamity.

Although Fujitora could not see Nagasawa’s face, he could also sense Nagasawa’s excitement and sighed inwardly that his luck was truly not bad. On the first day of work, he had met a like-minded colleague.

But for some reason, after a while, Fujitora felt that Nagasawa’s enthusiasm had decreased somewhat. Although he was still chatting, he seemed less enthusiastic.

After plucking two good Devil Fruits at once, Nagasawa was in a very good mood and felt that coming to the Navy as an Admiral was truly a godly move. Plucking fruits was too easy. He only needed to pretend to be enthusiastic and hold hands without letting go.

However, this was still fine with male marines. With women, he might be treated as harassing them.

After the photoshoot ended, there was nothing for them to do. Mainly, it was Akainu making harsh statements.

For some reason, looking at Nagasawa, this new Admiral, Akainu suddenly felt his chest turn cold and felt a little uncomfortable.

Akainu frowned slightly and continued speaking harsh words at the pirates from a distance.

It was just some talk about the new era of the Navy arriving, the Great Pirate Era being ended by him, and so on.

After all, the Navy had regained the Three Admirals. They had to publish some news to intimidate those arrogant pirates in the New World.

Putting aside Akainu, who inexplicably felt uncomfortable, Nagasawa was quite happy today. He had plucked two powerful fruits, exchanged slacking-off techniques with Kizaru, and discussed with Fujitora how to remove the Seven Warlords system.

He had not expected that the life of going to work and doing nothing but slacking off and drinking tea, which he had not realized in Konoha, would instead be realized in the Navy now.

The next day, the news that the Navy once again had Three Admirals spread throughout the entire world, along with the harsh words Akainu had made toward pirates.

...

New World, Whitebeard Pirates.

At this time, the pirates on the ship were all cheering loudly, excited over Ace’s great victory and return.

”You’re really becoming more and more capable, Ace. This time, you even gave Jack the Drought a hard beating.” After Ace returned to the ship, Marco patted Ace’s shoulder and smiled.

”It’s all right. After all, Jack is only the weakest of the Three All-Stars. It’s a pity the one who came wasn’t King.” The corners of Ace’s mouth rose into a confident smile.

After being rescued during the Summit War last time, Ace had trained crazily for a year. Now, whether it was his fruit ability or Haki, he far surpassed before. He felt it was only natural to defeat Jack, the weakest of the Three All-Stars. If it were King, the strongest among the Three All-Stars, he would probably get excited.

”Since you’re back, then let’s hold a banquet! Celebrate Ace’s victory!” Although Whitebeard had an IV drip hanging from his body, his voice was still full of vigor.

During the Summit War, a strange thing had happened to Whitebeard. Before the war occurred, he suddenly lost consciousness, then had a dream, a clear dream.

It was not a good dream, because in that dream, his Whitebeard Pirates suffered heavy losses. He was stabbed in the back by one stupid son, and finally, he was surrounded and killed by one son who had betrayed him, along with his men. Ace, who had been rescued, was also killed by Akainu.

Strangely, when he finished dreaming, the Summit War had really ended, and contrary to the dream, Ace had been rescued and was not killed. He also was not killed by Blackbeard with his men, but instead killed Blackbeard.

However, there were also some similarities. For example, there was still one stupid son who had been deceived, and Red Hair still arrived in the end.

Moreover, according to his sons, he had even displayed some moves he had never displayed before.

Whitebeard once suspected that his children were deliberately trying to make him happy, but in the end, he discovered that it was actually true. Yet Whitebeard truly did not know those moves.

There was also Mihawk, who inexplicably came to his door saying he wanted to have a duel between great swordsmen with him.

Facing Mihawk, who wanted a great swordsman duel, Whitebeard was extremely confused and even thought Mihawk had come to pick a fight.

In the end, the two said some things that did not match up at all, and Mihawk left. From beginning to end, Whitebeard felt it was inexplicable.

Whitebeard wanted to figure out what happened that day, but in the end, he did not investigate any result, so the matter was dropped.

However, although the process was inexplicable, the result was good.

Clearly, he had experienced a great battle, yet his body was instead a little better than before. Most importantly, Ace was also rescued.

Following Whitebeard’s order, all kinds of delicacies and wine were brought out, while Whitebeard drank wine using his own large bowl.

”Old Man, why don’t you drink a little less? Your body is still important,” Marco advised.

He was the First Division Captain and also the ship’s doctor, so he understood Whitebeard’s physical condition best.

After the Summit War, everyone felt that Old Man was unbelievably strong, but only Marco understood Whitebeard’s condition most clearly.

”Gurararara.” Whitebeard let out his signature laugh and said, ”My son has returned from a great victory. How can I not drink to celebrate?”

Clearly, Whitebeard was preparing to drink heartily today.

Marco could only sigh and had no way.

He knew his old man’s personality. Whitebeard had never feared death. Otherwise, he would not have gone to Navy Headquarters with a body full of injuries and illness to rescue Ace.

If he refused to eat this and drink that because of his body, wholeheartedly thinking about living a little longer, then that would not be his Whitebeard old man.

Seeing that Marco’s persuasion was ineffective, Ace also knew that there was no way to persuade him, so he simply accompanied Whitebeard in eating meat and drinking wine in large mouthfuls, preparing to find Whitebeard alone at night to talk.

Ace had not forgotten how Old Man had braved the Navy’s attacks to rescue him, so like Marco, he was concerned about Whitebeard’s body.

’Old Man, you have to live a little longer. I still want to see you become the Pirate King.’ Ace silently thought in his heart.

However, what Ace did not know was that if Whitebeard wanted to become the Pirate King, he could have done so long ago. Before turning himself in, Roger had once wanted to tell Whitebeard about One Piece, but Whitebeard refused.

”Old Man, this is today’s news. The Navy has gathered the Three Admirals again!” A pirate handed today’s news to Whitebeard.

Whitebeard took the newspaper, looked at it, then let out a burst of loud laughter.

”That brat Akainu still wants to end the Great Pirate Era within a few years. How laughable and arrogant.”

”Wishful thinking,” Marco gave his evaluation.

”He is dreaming.” Ace also felt that Akainu was thinking nonsense.

”But these two new Admirals look very unfamiliar,” Marco said.

Just like how the Navy knew powerful pirates, powerful marines would also have a certain reputation among pirates.

But Marco was very unfamiliar with both new Admirals.

”They should be civilian powerhouses from the world conscription,” Vista said.

”No need to care about these things. Begin our banquet!” Whitebeard laughed loudly and drank a large bowl of wine in one gulp.

It was not only the Whitebeard Pirates. Many forces noticed this matter.

”The new Three Admirals? Trash that was beaten down by one Whitebeard. Not worth paying attention to.” Kaido said extremely arrogantly, not putting Admirals in his eyes.

It was unknown whether it was strategic contempt or true disdain.

”There is also a great swordsman among the new Admirals?” Looking at the sword at Nagasawa’s waist, Mihawk gained some interest.

During the previous Summit War, he had been overshadowed by Whitebeard. Mihawk had trained seriously for a period of time and prepared to go spar with Whitebeard, but discovered that the Whitebeard he met that day was completely not the same person as during the Summit War.

Although it was very strange, Mihawk still left.

He wanted to spar with the swordsman Whitebeard who suppressed an Admiral with one slash during the Summit War, not the World’s Strongest Man Whitebeard.

”Fufufufufu, two monsters have come.” Doflamingo laughed loudly, but did not have much fear.
