While Zayen was focused on cultivating in the training field, Karp and the others were chatting with Zefa in the Marshal's office.
"You've been busy with the guerrillas during this period of time. Looking at you, I'm afraid you're not having a good time, right?”
Zhan Guo poured tea for Zefa and said casually.
Zefa took the cup and took a sip, his expression normal.
"It's fine, I'm used to it. I've been working hard for most of my life, and I haven't had a chance to rest. I've always wanted to be a guerilla. To be honest, I like doing it, and I enjoy it."
When everyone heard this, they frowned and their expressions were a little ugly.
A former general of the navy, a former chief instructor, the navy headquarters was such a big place, but Zefa couldn't do what he liked, and this small guerrilla team actually did it.
If this were to spread, there might be some gossip.
Zhan Guo knew that Zefa was not lying, but he was really angry.
Ever since Zefa's family and disciples died in the hands of pirates, his ideas became more and more radical, but the navy's style became more and more conservative.
As the admiral of the navy, Sengoku couldn't say anything about this, so he gave a look. Karp understood and coughed lightly.
"Zefa, you're already so old. Do you still want to fight on the front lines? I also know that the navy has indeed done a bad job over the years, but at least it's been so long.”
"No matter what, the navy is like your home. Are there any children who have conflicts with their families?”
"You've worked hard for most of your life. Wouldn't it be good for an old man like me to drink tea and watch birds from time to time and occasionally gather with us old fellows to relax and enjoy life?”
Karp looked like a boorish man, but there were not many people present who could see things more clearly than him.
As soon as he opened his mouth, he started with the emotional card.
Crane placed his hands on his chin and said slowly,
"I know it's hard for you to let go of the anger in your heart, but what can you change by fighting alone?”
"In the end, the so-called era of pirates can only be completely eradicated by the navy."
Crane's seemingly cloudy eyes were shining with a rational light. As the chief of staff of the Navy Headquarters, she had placed her personal feelings under the navy's official business for a long time.
Karp and Crane, one for private and one for public, were playing together, but Zefa did not move at all. He snorted coldly.
"I remember when I joined the navy. At that time, the navy was full of vigor and vitality. Roger and White Beard, whatever they wanted, they would fight them head-on.”
"Just like this time at Baroona Island, do you think I'll believe you if you say that your navy didn't know?”
"Why did you have to deal with it now? Humph!"
"Although this old master can't change the overall situation for the time being, it's still better than some people eating nothing."
Zefa raised his head, his eyes extremely sharp.
"Besides, who said that I can't change the situation by myself?”
Zefa's eyes flashed with an inexplicable splendor. He looked confident and his words were domineering, but it made everyone present tremble.
"Zefa, don't do anything rash!" Crane hurriedly stood up and said anxiously.”
As a former admiral of the navy, Zefa had a lot of secrets in his hands. If Zefa was determined to go all out, something big might really happen.
Zhan Guo also became nervous and quickly comforted him,""Zefa, don't be too agitated. Everything can be discussed. Why bother?"
Karp also laughed out loud to ease the atmosphere.
"It's been a long time since the Warring States Period was this tense."
"As expected, Zefa, you have a way."
Kid? Err... Considering that Karp was the oldest present, and that he was usually not serious, Zefa could not be bothered to argue with him.
However, why did the way this kid addressed her sound so harsh?
I'm already in my early seventies this year.
Zhan Guo was also speechless. What did he mean by not being so nervous for a long time? I get angry when I see you. Forget it, forget it. I won't argue with you.
He stared at Zefa, and the atmosphere in the office gradually quieted down. Everyone stopped talking.
Zefa sighed deeply and shook his head.
"I know what you mean. Aren't you looking forward to me returning to the navy headquarters?”
" But I've made up my mind. The navy doesn't need an old man like me. What it needs is fresh blood. Instead of wasting time on me, it's better to pay more attention to the younger generation."
Zefa's expression was calm as he spoke, but there was a determination that could not be discussed.
"This old master won't do anything to make things difficult for you."
"But please don't interfere with my affairs. If you still remember our old friendship, please take care of my young members in the future."
At this point, Zhan Guo and the others couldn't say anything.
If he tried to persuade her again, their many years of friendship would probably be broken.
The atmosphere in the office became more and more tense, and everyone's mood suddenly fell to the bottom.
At the critical moment, I, Karp Boor, will still have to appear.
Karp laughed and raised his teacup.
"It's rare for us to get together, so let's not talk about Lao Zi's business anymore. Come, come, let's drink tea."
"Yellow Ape brat, pour some tea!"
Huang Yuan, who was sitting quietly, had a helpless expression on his face. Everyone present was a group of old people, and their seniority was higher than his. His usual title of general was useless at this time.
Following Ka Pu's instructions, the great general Huang Yuan began to pour tea.
With Karp's enthusiasm, the office soon became lively again.
However, despite the excitement in his words, the bitterness in his heart could not be dispelled for a long time.
