Now Whitebeard is exactly 60 years old (Karp 66), and his strength is at its peak, and he really deserves the title of "the strongest man in the world".

But Whitebeard faintly noticed that there seemed to be a slight problem with his body.

Although this problem does not affect his strength at all, it is like going for a run without wearing his socks, which will always give him a trace of awkwardness.

Maybe it's because of the side effects of the Shock Fruit, or maybe it's because Whitebeard drinks too hard...

But Whitebeard didn't think so, and in his opinion, it was just the knife that no one could escape, called the years.

In terms of age, Roger is younger than himself, and the golden lion is older than himself.

Whitebeard knows very well that sooner or later, whether it is the golden lion or himself, he will be replaced by a newcomer and withdraw from the stage of this era.

When he was young, he also stepped on the corpses of those old pirates and killed them step by step.

But he didn't expect that this day would come so quickly, and the golden lion, the most influential of the three that year, would fall like this.

Unlike Roger, who is both friend and foe with him, Whitebeard doesn't like the Golden Lion at all.

This is just a kind of sadness like the sadness of the dead rabbit and the fox, in the face of the years, his white beard will have such a day sooner or later.

"Daddy, what's wrong with you? Sick? ”

Seeing that the whitebeard was a little distracted, a strong black man asked stupidly, looking very honest.

"Teach, don't talk nonsense, how can Daddy get sick!"

Another strong man, "Diamond" Joz, scolded Titch.

Titch smiled innocently: "Hehe... I just don't look right with my dad, and I'm just a little worried about him..."

A guy with pineapple hair who looked like he hadn't woken up yet took the newspaper from Whitebeard's hand.

The diagonal lines of the newspaper are crossed from right to left, so it looks like the golden lion is below and the arctic tiger is condescending.

The pineapple-headed little brother raised his eyelids: "I think Dad was just angry with the number one naval hero of the 'Arctic Tiger'." ”

Whitebeard laughed: "Navy hero? What a big breath! Is he better than Karp? ”

The members of the Whitebeard Pirates all laughed, as the top pirates, they naturally knew what kind of people were worthy of the term "naval heroes".

Even if the Golden Lion is defeated, that Arctic Tiger is not qualified enough, because even if it is the Golden Lion, their Whitebeard Pirates have long been out of their minds.

……

The "Navy Hero" can't be blamed on Hailan, this is all blown out by the "big news" Morgans himself.

In the original book, Luffy and his gang just fled BIGMOM's territory in embarrassment, and they were all blown up by him as the "Fifth Emperor", and the argument that "the Vince Mock family surrendered on the spot" came out.

Like the vast majority of journalists, Morgens's news is also based on how outrageous and how to blow.

But it's understandable, after all, if you don't brag, readers won't be attracted to you and buy your newspaper.

As for Hailan's title of "Arctic Tiger", this was awarded to him by the Navy Headquarters.

Because of his greatest achievements in the Golden Lion Crusade, Hailan's military rank has jumped from the original "brigadier general" to the "lieutenant general" of the headquarters.

At the age of 20, he is the youngest vice admiral in the history of the Navy!

Although they were envious and jealous, the soldiers did not feel unfair.

The Golden Lion, that is a legend that once required the Warring States General and Lieutenant General Karp to join forces to fight.

Even though the Golden Lion is not as good as it was then, the legend is still a legend.

Emaciated camels are also bigger than horses.

Who would dare to say that they can also defeat a weakened legend?

Because Hailan's opponent is the "Golden Lion", he is a lion, so in order to show that Lieutenant General Hailan has the strength to compete with the Golden Lion, he first decided to have a "Tiger" in his title.

Although the tiger and the lion are only "younger brother" level beasts in this world, the tiger and the lion also have mutations, and they can still defeat those mutated beasts, otherwise the golden lion will not use "lion" as his nickname.

The North Pole of the "Arctic Tiger" represents the ability of Hailan's "Aurora" fruit.

Originally, because the light was white, everyone's initial suggestion was to call him "White Tiger" or "Silver Tiger", but Hailan didn't agree and didn't say why, and then everyone was helpless, so it was changed to "Arctic Tiger".

Although "Arctic Tiger" and "Yellow Ape", "Green Pheasant" and "Red Dog" may not sound neat, the language of this world is not Chinese, North Tiger, Blue Bird, Yello Monkey, Red Dog... Actually, it's the same for everyone...

As for why the Arctic tiger and not the Antarctic tiger ... He's got to have a pole, right?

So in this way, Hailan's official nickname in the headquarters was set as "Arctic Tiger".

The reason why the newspapers did not publish his specific appearance was mainly for the sake of the military's secrecy work.

The admirals and vice admirals of the Navy Headquarters, very few people in the outside world know who they really are.

Hailan didn't mind at all about this.

His system recognizes people without names, and even if there is no name, as long as he can associate with that person, the system can obtain recognition values.

It's a pity that there are many people who watch the excitement, and there are few people who really know how to be grateful.

Even after destroying the "Golden Lion" Shiji of the Megatron World, Hailan only gained more than 30,000 recognition points, which is still a few thousand short of the 50,000 in the next stage.

However, the problem is not big, the "identity value" affects the computing power, and now Hailan's computing power has reached Lv9, and the corresponding "perception" is only Lv7.

The top priority now is to raise the "perception" first.

……

"I didn't expect Chief Hailan to be promoted from brigadier general to lieutenant general all of a sudden, I'm really a little envious..."

"Then you go and beat Whitebeard, maybe you will become a general directly."

"Haha... No more kidding..."

Zefa especially likes to go for walks these days.

Whenever he heard someone talking about Hailan, he felt very comfortable in his heart.

Since retiring as a general, Zefa has had a new dream: he wants to train heroes.

Hailan is a model of "hero" in his mind.

If it weren't for the fact that Akainu's temperament was too rushed, Akainu would have been a hero in Zefa's mind.

Although Zefa is a "general who does not kill", he has never asked his students to "not kill".

What is Holy Daddy? That is to repay grievances with virtue.

What is Holy Daddy? That is, not only to repay grievances with virtue, but also to ask others to repay grievances with virtue.

Zefa obviously doesn't hold others to the test with his own standards.

Whether it's a pheasant with a peaceful personality, or a red dog who never spares his hand to pirates... It's all his pride.

……

"No, Lieutenant General Hailan, you can't just enter here..."

"I'm now a vice admiral in my headquarters, I'm still a naval hero, a future admiral ... How dare you stop me? Be careful, I'll put on little shoes for you when I become a general!! ”

There is no wind zone, at the gate of the base of the scientific research department of the world government, Hailan is shouting at the guards.

"This..."

The guards were really a little scared.

It is said that the new official took office with three fires, and the first fire of this Arctic Tiger lieutenant general... It can't be a burn, right?

"This, this, this... That's more prescriptive..."

"Then you go and report, I won't stop you, but you'd better not stop me either."

"Ha ???"

Hailan pushed away the stunned guards and swaggered into the World Government's Scientific Research Department.
