After ending the humiliating memories in his mind, he looked at Sakaski who was not far away. Even though half a month had passed, Borusalino's eyes were still filled with deep unwillingness.
Yes, it was! He had lost! He, Polo Salino, had completely lost!
Putting aside the fact that he had eaten the Devil's Fruit a year earlier than Sakasugi, he was already far inferior to Sakasugi in terms of strength alone.
4600 points of Dao Power and 3700 points of Dao Power. The difference between the two was not one point or two points, nor was it 10.20 points. It was a difference of nearly 1000 points of Dao Power.
Even if Porusalino didn't want to admit it, he had indeed lost to Sakasugi. He had lost to Sakasugi by an absolute margin. There was no room for excuses.
Although Sakasugi had said that this was just a game, Porusalino was not stupid. How could he not know that this so-called game was actually a contest of strength on another level?
If there are two tigers in the mountain, there must be a fight.
They were both natural-type demon fruit ability users, geniuses with endless potential, and were all prepared to join the navy headquarters.
These three similar factors seemed to be fated to determine that Porusalino and Sakasugi would inevitably go against each other in the future.
Therefore, Sakasugi's suggestion was actually the first contest between Porusalino and Sakasugi.
However, he didn't expect that he would lose to his opponent in the first battle. He didn't lose to the strong people of the navy, but to someone of the same age who was a few years younger than him.
It had to be said that this experience was unforgettable for Porusalino, who had never failed before.
Of course, Sakasugi had said that there were no penalties in this game, so in reality, Porusalino didn't lose anything. He shouldn't be so sad.
But whether it was Sakasugi or Porusalino, they both knew that losing this game was the biggest punishment.
Geniuses are all arrogant. Proud, not to mention that he was a Devil Fruit user.
To put it bluntly, Porusalino had never thought that he would lose one day.
Therefore, it was not hard to imagine how painful this defeat was for Porusalino, who had suffered defeat for the first time.
The pride of a genius. The shadow of failure had been hanging over Porusalino since half a month ago. It was like a lingering nightmare.
He clenched his fists tightly, and a terrifying aura emanated from his body. It was the unwillingness to lose, the unwillingness to resist, and the will to fight that he was unwilling to admit defeat.
However…
Seeing Sakasugi again after so many days, Porusalino thought that he would be unable to suppress his fighting spirit and rush to fight again. However, he didn't expect that he wasn't as excited as he had imagined.
Unwillingness! Humiliation! Battle intent! But it was mostly calm.
It was as if a problem that he had been struggling with for a long time had suddenly been solved. Porusalino had a sudden enlightenment!
It wasn't that Porusalino had given up on the idea of fighting Sakasugi. In fact, this idea might have even become stronger. However, he wasn't as impetuous as before. This was because he had finally accepted his defeat for the first time! And face his own failure!
There was still a long way to go in the future! The contest between us has just begun!
"Sakasugi, I lost this time, but don't be too pleased. I won't admit defeat just like that. Next time! Next time! The person who wins next time will definitely be me!”
Putting down his clenched fists, as if he had let go of the shadow that had been shrouding his heart, Porusalino instantly broke all the shackles of failure.
...................................................
Sakasugi didn't know what was going on in Borusalino's mind, but he could clearly sense the change in Borusalino's aura, even though he had returned to his usual lazy appearance.
"Yes! Had he recovered from the shadow of failure? As expected of the future three generals of the navy headquarters. They still had this level of psychological quality!”
The corners of his mouth curled up slightly. Seeing that Porusalino had returned to his original state, and even became better than before, Sakaski was not surprised but happy. Instead, he was very happy.
"The seed of submission has been planted. As long as we can continue to maintain the fertilizer and irrigation, we don't have to worry that this seed won't germinate and grow.”
A dim light flashed in Sakasugi's eyes. He was like a wolf on the hunt. Greedily coveting the prey that he liked, the prey that he still didn't notice.
In fact, Porusalino had not noticed Sakasugi's true intentions. He had always treated Sakasugi as an opponent, but he had no idea that Sakasugi had never treated him as an opponent.
The first time Sakasugi saw the future yellow ape, he had the idea of taking him under his wing.
In the original history, the three great generals of the navy in the later generations stood on equal footing and did things their own way. They did not care about each other. They did not submit to each other.
However, this was no longer the original history. Sakasugi was not a man who was satisfied with the position of a general. His goal had never been just the admiral of the navy.
Therefore, what should have happened in the future was absolutely impossible for Sakasugi. He would never allow anyone to be on equal footing with him.
He didn't want Borusalino to become his opponent, nor did he want Borusalino to become his subordinate. He wanted Borusalino to submit to him completely!!
Perhaps this would be a very difficult task. After all, those with the Devil's Fruit were all proud and arrogant people. However, Sakasugi was confident that he could achieve it.
PS: Some readers said that it seemed to be confusing. The author took a look and seemed to have the same feeling, so she spent some time modifying the first few chapters. Everyone can read it again.
This chapter was updated from yesterday. In order to modify the previous chapters, he did not have the time to upload it.
