Chapter 144: Finals are out, regaining the spot

Chapter 144: Finals are out, regaining the spot

As the battle continued, the naval officers of those branches felt more and more ashamed of themselves, because they witnessed many wonderful battles with their own eyes, and finally realized what it meant to be powerful.

This is exactly the deterrent effect that the Navy Headquarters wants to achieve.

Because of the long distance, many officers and soldiers of the naval branches became local tyrants, seriously damaging the reputation of the navy.

Some people, because they think they are very powerful, disregard the orders of the Navy Headquarters, only follow orders and not announcements, and try to fool the Navy Headquarters.

Although the Navy Headquarters is not afraid of this given its strength, it would be troublesome if it really had to frequently send people from the headquarters to deal with it, and the sea area where the branch is located also needs the Navy to deter it.

Therefore, the Navy Headquarters simply took advantage of this competition to intimidate everyone and make those people with active minds give up their evil intentions. Of course, some of them still need to be liquidated.

In the next two group battles, Lu Kai still easily defeated his opponents. One of his opponents was a brigadier general from a naval branch in the North Sea named North, who was very powerful.

In order to check his strength, Zhan Guo gave Lu Kai a hint, and Lu Kai immediately understood. After the battle began, he only defended and did not attack, allowing North to exert all his strength.

When the investigation was almost done, Lu Kai easily defeated him.

The other opponent is the new major general of the Navy Headquarters and the future vice admiral Flying Squirrel.

After challenging Lu Kai two years ago and being easily defeated by Lu Kai, Flying Squirrel has been working hard to improve himself and has been training very hard in the past two years.

The flying squirrel's strength at this point should not be underestimated, but it was still no match for Lu Kai.

Although Lu Kai had no obligation to investigate the flying squirrel, he had heard about the flying squirrel's efforts in the past two years, so he was not too ruthless and let the flying squirrel exert all its strength before defeating it.

Because Duras could not fight anymore, he had to give up. In the next battle, Flying Squirrel defeated North with difficulty and advanced to the top 64 knockout round.

In fact, the flying squirrel should thank Lu Kai. If Lu Kai hadn't defeated Duras, the flying squirrel would probably have found it difficult to advance.

Although the flying squirrel has shown extraordinary strength at this moment, it has not yet learned how to use its domineering power. It naturally has no chance of winning against the natural-type Duras.

In the following battles, Lu Kai won all the way and advanced to the finals.

Among his opponents there were veteran lieutenant generals, potential rising stars, and strong men from the branch, but none of them had the strength to fight a decisive battle with Lu Kai.

And Luke's opponent in the final battle has also been determined, and it is his old acquaintance, Borsalino, nicknamed "Yellow Monkey", who will become an admiral of the navy in the future.

Borsalino successfully defeated the famous Vice Admiral Tsuru in the semi-finals. Although the process was difficult, he finally won the victory, showing his impressive fighting power.

Although Vice Admiral Tsuru is a well-known warrior with great strength, he has no advantage against Borsalino.

In the end, Vice Admiral Tsuru was knocked back and fell off the stage while resisting Kizaru's light-speed kick. Although Vice Admiral Tsuru did not seem to be injured, he was indeed defeated by Borsalino on the scene.

As for Sakaski and Kuzan, they were so unlucky that they met in the round of 16.

Both of them displayed extremely powerful fighting ability in the battle, and it was difficult to tell who was better for a while.

As a result, during a confrontation, both of them fell out of the ring at the same time. Although they were not injured at all, they were eliminated together.

The strength shown by the four seeded players has been seen by everyone, and they will also be the people who lead the navy in an era in the future.

At this point, the decisive battle was between Luquet and Borsalino, and the battle that the two men had not completed two years ago would be fought today.

Many people in the Navy Headquarters knew that Lucei and Borsalino disliked each other, but many did not know the reason. Only Lucei and Borsalino themselves knew the answer.

After Luke escorted King Russell and Princess Rachel of Itachisia, he was misunderstood when returning to the headquarters, and a misunderstanding occurred. At that time, Borsalino wanted to capture Luke.

Originally this would have been nothing, but during the fight Borsalino's sarcasm and ridicule made Luke very unhappy.

Then Borsalino kicked Luke, but was knocked away by Luke's heavy punch.

Borsalino, who was knocked away, did not go forward to fight with Luke for a while. When he finally made up his mind to continue fighting with Luke, Garp arrived again and took Luke away directly.

Borsalino lost face because of this.

Because Borsalino was the most famous and powerful person among those who besieged Luke in the farce, he was called a monster.

But in the eyes of others, Borsalino appeared to be a little cowardly, and for this reason he was often laughed at behind his back, saying that he bullied the weak and feared the strong.

As Lu Kai's strength and influence grew, the Marine Headquarters' blunder was mentioned repeatedly.

Borsalino's label of bullying the weak and fearing the strong has been confirmed, so naturally he doesn't have a good face towards Lu Kai.

And seeing that Borsalino always looked unfriendly towards him, Lu Kai naturally wouldn't give him a good face.

So even though the two of them were in the same naval headquarters, they were like strangers and didn't even say hello when they met.

On the contrary, another giant lieutenant general named Sauron who had attacked Luke later became very good friends with Luke.

Borsalino was also very upset about this. Why did he stop at that time?

No matter who he is or what he is here for, you should do it first.

In fact, Borsalino was not a coward at that time, it was just his personality that made him afraid of trouble.

Because Borsalino felt the aura of Garp's "Bone Fist" on Luckey's punch, he believed that Luckey and Garp were related, so he did not embarrass Luckey anymore.

But outsiders didn't care about that and thought he was just a coward, so Borsalino lost all his face. Naturally, he was very unhappy about it. He has been trying hard to get back at his former self in the past two years, and now is the perfect opportunity.

Borsalino is now 32 years old and is not far from his peak. His strength is quite strong.

When I first entered the navy, Borsalino and Sakaski, who were my peers, were called monsters.

Because both of them are users of natural-type devil fruits, and both of them have very strong attack power among natural-type devil fruits, they both showed their ability to crush their peers early on.

Especially seeing that the two of them have a good foundation and high comprehension, Zefa, as their instructor, is much stricter with them than with others.

Therefore, both of them have excellent basic combat capabilities, and they learned the use of Armament Haki and Observation Haki faster than others, and they have been making progress over the years.

But Lu Kai really didn't take Borsalino seriously.
