Capítulo 5: CH-5
It is March, and there is still a hint of winter in Marinford. Before the sun rose, Yoriichi walked out of the room with a sigh of relief, looking at the empty yard in front of him.
Just yesterday, under the Garp's recommendation, he somehow became a disciple of Zefa. However, due to his age, he was unable to join the Academy.Even despite that,he was able to move directly to Zefa's house and lived in its.
The 47-year-old Zefa encountered a great change five years ago. His family was killed by the pirates he once chased.After that, his beliefs of not killing pirates was being discarded.
Zefa's original intention was to give up for being an navy, but under the persuasion of fleet admiral Kong, his friend Garp and others, Zefa had no choice but to stay.
but he retired from the front line and became an instructor of the naval academy, responsible for teaching the future of navy.
Marineford is a huge and comprehensive island. It is not just the headquarters of the Navy but also the place for undertaking the important military tasks.It have also the residential areas for the families of the somewhat important navy soilders.
That area ,that is center of the Island,is fairly occupied the considerable area as they don't want that kind of accident to ever happen again.
As one of the important figures, Zefa was allocated in a large courtyard. However, after his family's accident, Zefa basically slept in the dormitory of the Naval Academy,not stepping a single step into its former home to sleep.
It was not until yesterday that he decided to see the home that he rarely visited.
Though Yoriichi is the outsider,he still have a fair amount of knowledge as an anime watcher.So,he knew what happened to this kind old man and quite felt sorry about that.
He used to feel so much happy and quite supported for the protagonist when he was just watching from the show.But after experiencing as his reality, things are not that simple.
Even demons are somewhat better than those Pirate who knew nothing but raping, plundering, destroying and killing for their own satisfaction.
Give up as his entire life on the navy and the ending he got is.....
As he thought as how zefa's future will be,he sighed.
The room he supposed to live is gonna be the room of Zefa's deceased child. On the table, there are still many baby's toys that still not throw away .
Despite being the empty house,this room is surprisedly very clean without a trace of dust. It can be seen that Zefa often takes care of it, showing that he will never let go of the remnant memories of his family.
"Oh! It's good to get up so early....it seemed that I won't have to call you."
" To be a good navy,decipline is also needed!"
"What about your sleep at yesterday? It hasn't been cleaned up much, and the room is also a bit messy.I hope that you don't mind."
Just when Yoriichi was in a daze, Zefa walked through from the corridor, and saw him while he said with a smile.
"Teacher Zefa."
He turned his head to look at Zefa, greeting him with a smile.he shook his head slightly when he heard Zefa's concerned question.
"Teacher, you must be joking. How can a savage like me complain such a nice place?"
"The room is neat and clean,much better than the place that I used to use....I like it very much, thank you Teacher Zefa."
As soon as he spoke politely and formally, Zefa still felt a slight sense of distance when he heard these words. But Zefa didn't mind.Afterall,it is normal to feel vigilance and alienation when someone arrived at the unknown place,let alone an child like him.
"As long as you like it,then you can live here in the future."
"That guy Garp is rarely seen in the
headquarters.That why you will live with me in the future, and I will take care of you."
"Let's go and have breakfast first."
"I'm going to the Naval Academy later. you can go there with me if you want. although you can't directly enroll now , you can do some training by yourself."
"Those facilities are open, and you can use them when no one is around."
Zefa came to his side, and put one hand on his shoulder. the warmth from his palm dispelled the morning chill.
"Okay, teacher." He felt love from Zefa's words and actions, a feeling he had rarely gotten.
Zefa took a deep look at the room where his child used to live, and was silent for a while before he suddenly said in a deep voice
"If you don't like it, you don't have to join the navy."
"In the future, there are many choices that are better than being an a navy"
Zefa looked back at the immature face,making him a little dazed. If his child hadn't died, he would be 8 years old by now.He said with the last resort,not wanting to see an possibility of him dying in the merciless battlefield when the other party is just around the same age as his child.on the other hand is that no matter how much he adore this little guy,he still need some strength to protect himself.As an former admiral,he have seen the ugly side of the world government and pirates alike.According to Garp, he has outstanding talent.So,his future life should be a smooth sailing if he don't die young.With that,he is facing with dilemma.
When he heard Zefa's words, he was a little puzzled why the other party said this suddenly. As An admiral of the navy ,He is trying the opposite of what he should do.
'Are you testing me?'
Thinking in his heart, he shook his head resolutely and said:
"No. I've made my decision."
" No matter what others might think, I have decided to make some efforts to change this world" Zefa looked at his firm eyes with a slightly dazed expression. He didn't know how a person of this age could have such determination.
Zefa suddenly felt guilty, but he suddenly ended with his laughter.
"Hahahaha!"
"Okay,it good to be ambitious "
"Come on, come with me,and I will show you how to cultivate an excellent navy!"
Zefa patted his back and said happily. When both of them arrived at the Naval Academy, the naval cadets had already started today's training.
Despite the early morning chill, the trainees, who are practicing, are already sweating profusely.
"All of these these guys are genius in their home Town"
"Afterall,Naval school is not a place that everyone can join "
"And those who can successfully graduate from here will directly become captain after they are assigned." While speaking, Zefa had already led him to the arena, pointing at the students who were running around the periphery of its.
When showing,his face was full of pride.
'Running is a little different from what I expected .I thought the training at the Naval Academy would be a little different.'
"Teacher Zefa, if it's just for running, think I can join in." Hearing his words, Zefa smiled noncommittally.he then called an instructor in charge of supervising the training, and asked loudly:
"Report! How long have they been training!"
After the instructor gave a military salute to Zefa, he straightened his chest and reported:
"Report to Chief Instructor Zefa."
"They been training for an hour and forty minutes."
"There are still 10 minutes left until the end of the warm up!"
After listening to his subordinate's report, Zefa looked at Yoriichi with a smile on his face, and explained:
"Running is just a simple warm-up."
"Not to mention this huge Field has a size of 1000 meters."
"After a simple warm-up, the trainees will have other training such as sailing knowledge, the use of firearms, hand to hand,sword training ,naval history, etc."
"What you see now is just the tip of the iceberg."
Zefa's proud face said with a smile. The Naval Academy in the early years was far less impressive than it is now. At that time, the students learned a few hand-to-hand combat or sword skills, and then they are good to go.ever since Zefa became the chief instructor of the Naval Academy, the training subjects have become more detailed and effective.
When he heard Zefa's words, he couldn't help raising his brows with surprised. He originally thought that this place was just a place for the navy to teach the six styles of the navy and haki.But now it seems that it is not only focus on personal strength but also cadet's knowledge.
" the admission requirements for the Naval Academy are very strict."
"Apart from the age requirement,there are still one more requirement"
"Only if the doriki value reaches more than 80, you can be accepted."
"Do you know what is the meaning of doriki?let me tell you.....this is just an measurements System of how strong you are. An ordinary adult male who has received some training has only 10 !"
