Zefa wasn't bragging. His position in the navy was comparable to that of Admiral Sengoku. Not only because he was a admiral, but also because his students were all over the navy headquarters. Many of the higher-ups in the navy were his students. If it wasn't for Zefa's withdrawal, it was hard to say who the admiral would be.
Therefore, with Zefa's recommendation, the three generals would definitely give him face.
If Zhou Chen had the intention of joining the navy headquarters, this might be a good opportunity. However, Zhou Chen's goal was not to join the navy headquarters because it would be very inconvenient for him to do things in the future as a navy.
"I'm sorry, but I advocate freedom. Although there's no problem joining the navy headquarters, it's also a kind of restriction for me. The Seven Martial Seas are different. They are relatively free and are also affiliated to the navy headquarters. As for me not being a pirate, that doesn't seem to be a problem. As far as I know, Hawkeye hasn't admitted that he's a pirate before, right? Didn't he also join the Sea of Seven Martial Arts?”
Zefa raised his eyebrows. He felt that Zhou Chen was overestimating himself. He was known as the world's number one sword hero, and you're just a fledgling kid. You might have some strength, but compared to Hawkeye, you're like heaven and earth. He became the Sea of Seven Martial Arts purely because of his strength.
However, when he saw Zhou Chen's young face, Zefa felt a little relieved. He was a young man, after all. Who would not be young and vigorous? Perhaps it was because Zhou Chen had not seen too many scenes, so his knowledge was shallow. He felt that he was not much different from Hawkeye. If Hawkeye could become the Seven Martial Seas, so could he.
"Hawkeye is a special case. Since it is a special case, it is naturally impossible to do it casually. Therefore, if you want to become the Sea of Seven Martial Arts, I really can't help you.”
Zefa shook his head and rejected Zhou Chen's request. Although he did not like the system of the Seven Martial Seas, this system was indeed a good idea for the navy headquarters. It could effectively curb the rapidly developing pirate forces and cause the various large forces on the sea to form a relatively balanced situation.
This was a matter of great importance to the situation at sea, so Zefa naturally wouldn't give a random answer.
Zhou Chen immediately said,"Senior Zefa, you misunderstood. I'm not asking you to directly make me one of the seven seas of martial arts. I just want you to do me a favor and introduce me to Admiral Sengoku. As for whether I can become one of the seven seas of martial arts under the king, it depends on my own ability.”
"Do you really want to try?"
Seeing Zhou Chen's firm attitude, Zefa frowned slightly and said," Although the Sea of Seven Valiant Ones belongs to the world government and the navy headquarters in name, there are no other benefits besides the name. It might even become the target of other pirates. Instead of becoming a Sea of Seven Valiant Ones, why don't you join the navy? That way, not only will you have enough resources, but you can also get a good position. Isn't that better?”
Zefa really did not understand what Zhou Chen was thinking. There were many benefits to joining the navy headquarters, so why did he have to become the Seven Martial Seas? Although the name of the Seven Martial Seas sounded good, it would also become the target of the pirates. If they were not strong enough, they could be destroyed at any time, and the navy headquarters would not support them.
Zhou Chen considered for a moment. Although there were many benefits to joining the navy, the disadvantages outweighed the benefits, so he still shook his head.
"Thank you, Senior Zefa, but I still think that the position of the Sea of Seven Martial Arts is more suitable for me. If I really can't be one, I might change my profession and become a bounty hunter.”
Zefa did not understand why Zhou Chen was unwilling to join the navy headquarters, but it was not that he was unwilling, but after joining the navy headquarters, his movements would be more or less restricted, and his auction house would make him frequently search for auction items. The two would clash. Zhou Chen was even worried that if he interacted with the people of the navy headquarters for too long, his identity would be exposed. After all, no one could always be a human and a ghost.
"Alright, I'll help you out then. Consider it as paying for this favor." Zefa nodded.”
Zhou Chen's eyes narrowed. He understood Zefa's meaning. He was willing to help, but after this, they would no longer have any connection. Clearly, Zefa did not want to treat him as one of his own.
Zhou Chen was silent for a moment before agreeing. He had not planned to use this rescue to threaten anything. It was enough to achieve this goal. He believed that Zefa would do his best to help him. With Zefa's recommendation, no matter what the Warring States Kingdom thought, they would give him a chance.
Because he wanted to return the favor, Zefa acted very quickly. He immediately contacted Zhan Guo and explained the situation. Although Zhan Guo could understand, it was an important decision related to the Seven Martial Seas, so he thought for a moment and agreed to give Zhou Chen a chance, but whether it would succeed or not depended on Zhou Chen.
After receiving the reply, Zefa spread out his arms and said to Zhou Chen,"Zhan Guo has agreed to give you a chance, but before that, you have to bring out a gift of sufficient weight.”
"A greeting gift?" Zhou Chen was surprised.
Zefa said," At present, three people have been confirmed in the Seven Martial Seas. At the same time, a few people are still under investigation and may gather at any time. Therefore, if you want to stand out at this time, you must have enough weight. The enemy of the navy is pirates. If you can carry the head of a big pirate, you may have a good chance.”
Zhou Chen's eyes flashed as he asked,"Senior Zefa, what do you mean?”
" It's very simple," Zefa said in a deep voice." The Sloan Pirates. If you can find them, destroy them, and take Sloan's head, I can vouch for you. With my guarantee, I believe your chances of becoming a Seven Martial Seas will be even greater.”
