After the "swearing-in meeting" ended, the retired veteran cadre Warring States walked to Hailan's side.

Warring States sighed, patted Hai Lan on the shoulder, and said: "Hai Lan, you have been busy these days, go home and see your father, when the war officially breaks out, it may be difficult to find enough time like now, as for the affairs of the branch, I and Staff Officer Crane will help you deal with it." ”

Don't look at the fact that the whole of the Navy Headquarters is united in hatred of the enemy, the branch is different.

The combat quality, moral quality, and ideological consciousness of the branch navy were already much worse than those of the elite navy of the headquarters, and there was no need for Hailan to open his mouth, as soon as he heard that the navy headquarters was going to go to war with the world government, a considerable part of the branch navy had already fled.

As for the branch of the four seas, it is even more incredible, the emperor is far away, taking advantage of the opportunity of the navy to prepare for the world government, he has no time to take care of the four seas, and each side has already been divided, holding heavy warships, and becoming a warlord-like existence.

There is no way to do this, the world is too big to take care of many things.

Fortunately, Hailan did not count on the navy of the branch from the beginning.

The Draconians are just a mountain that has been intercepted on the path of naval justice, and after crossing this mountain, there are countless demons and monsters waiting to be faced behind the mountain—warlords, elusive revolutionary armies, and emperor-like sea thieves...... Too much, too much.

Hearing the kindness of the Warring States, Hai Lan smiled gratefully: "Thank you for the reminder, I'll go back and see my father." ”

Sengoku nodded: "That's very good." ”

……

Zefa has long resigned from the position of admiral, and after passing the age of old, he will no longer serve as the chief instructor of the navy, unlike Sengoku and Karp, who still hold the position of chief inspector or vice admiral, the current Zefa is a real retiree.

Zefa is a sensible person, although he has long known that Hailan has returned, but he has not disturbed Hailan in these busy days of Hailan, but has been silently paying attention to Hailan.

He saw all Hailan's demeanor at the pledge meeting, Zefa was very happy and satisfied, he couldn't become a real naval hero, but at least, Hailan did it.

It's just that there is still a trace of worry in Zhongzefa, this time the opponent is the world government, it is different from before, Hailan he will not encounter danger again, right? The loss of his family, he has no way to experience it for a third time.

"Daddy, I'm back!"

Hearing Hailan's voice, Zefa, who was originally thinking wildly, immediately put down everything in his hand and trotted to the gate.

The old man smiled heartily: "You kid...... Yes, it's stronger again, and it seems to be stronger! Hahaha...... Look at me, the excitement is in the sand. ”

Hai Lan's heart warmed, and he smiled and said to Zefa: "Don't worry, Dad, I promise you that I will never lose contact in the future." ”

"You kid has to talk about it, or be careful that Daddy beats you! Come on, come in, come in, Daddy has a lot to say to you. ”

Zefa just grabbed Hailan's wrist, but he caught a glimpse of another figure, his footsteps couldn't help but pause, and he glanced up and down at the silver-haired girl in front of him, Zefa sighed: "Whose girl is this?" What a Peugeot! ”

Hailan let the girl in and pushed it in front of Zefa: "This is your daughter-in-law." ”

"Daughter-in-law?"

Zefa was stunned, "You kid ......"

He muttered as he looked at the silver-haired girl, always feeling a little familiar.

The girl laughed softly, "Teacher Zefa, you don't know me anymore?" I'm Ain. ”

"Ain?"

The mold of the silver-haired girl coincided with the image in his memory, and Zefa suddenly realized: "It's really you!" Why did you dye your hair white? ”

Ain's gaze was a little dim, and Hailan answered, "Isn't this very pretty, there is a kind of frost beauty." ”

"Forget it, you young people just like it, and I won't ask more."

As he spoke, Zefa pulled Hailan aside and asked in a low voice, "Didn't you just say that you won't marry a wife or have children?" What about the daughter-in-law? ”

Hai Lan glanced at Zefa: "I mean you don't marry a wife during the war, do you want your son to be a single man for the rest of your life." ”

"Hah...... Haha......"

Zefa laughed embarrassedly twice and let out a long breath, "Then I'll rest assured!" ”

Zefa carefully looked at the young man and woman in front of him a few times, and couldn't help but sigh: "Okay, good! ”

Ain likes Hailan, Zefa has already seen it, but Hailan has never expressed his position, so scared that Zefa still thinks that Hailan has some congenital physiological defects, and now it seems that this worry can be relieved.

"Dad, Ain will live in our house in the future, and I can rest assured that you protect her."

"Daddy still wants to help you exert your residual heat and beat up the Tianlong people, what, do you think Daddy can't move his fists?"

"With us young people here, what is it to let you veterans go to war."

"Hahaha, why are you kid more pedantic than Daddy? The old man can't go into battle to kill the enemy? ”

"Well, then I'll have to be honest with you."

"Honestly?"

"Here's the thing......"

Hailan told Zefa that Ain had gone to Mary Joya to avenge herself, but he didn't say anything about Ain's soul wounded.

“…… Therefore, I am afraid that the Draconians will assassinate Ain, and I will feel at ease with you. ”

"Oh, I get it when you say that. Hahaha...... Ai Yin has already killed a five old stars, but you kid has no head in his hands, you have been compared to your daughter-in-law! ”

"Zefa-sensei......"

Ain's face was slightly red, "Don't say that...... I'm ...... with Hailan We're not married, it's all his own nonsense. ”

"What? Don't you like Hailan? ”

"No, of course not ......"

"Then what else do you have to be afraid of, isn't it just a bad form."

Seeing that Ai Yin was speechless, Zefa patted Hai Lan's shoulder and said seriously: "You can rest assured about the affairs at home, but you, don't let the people who care about you worry anymore." ”

Hailan nodded: "I understand." ”

Without waiting for Kerra, Hailan wondered, "What about the crazy girl?" ”

"When you didn't come back, Kerra took Chopper to the G5 branch, and she said that she also wants to get stronger, so that she can protect you, and now she should be on her way back."

Hai Lan's heart warmed: "This kid ......"

"Come on, come on, come into the house, don't stand stupidly at the door."

The family chatted for a long time before Hailan said goodbye and left.

After searching for a long time in the castle amulet, Hailan found a phone bug.

Hailan has experienced too many things during this time, and she has no time to take care of the phone bug, and the little guy is so hungry that she climbs on the potted plant and gnaws on it.

"I'm sorry, do me a favor first, I'll get you fed right away."

Hailan held the phone bug in the palm of her hand, pressed the button, and sent the signal out.

This small phone bug can only contact the paired phone bug and does not have a dialing function.

It rang for nearly five minutes before the phone bug clicked on.

"Your Excellency."

On the other side of the phone bug was Chloe's voice.

No one would have thought that the "godfather" who is famous in the dark world would also call others adults.

"I have given you a very important task now, and the rest doesn't matter, as long as you complete this task, you can return to the sun at any time."

Chloe's voice was slightly excited, and the content of her speech was still short and clear: "Please." ”

"You are now trying to focus as much energy as possible on this matter, if you find a Devil Fruit that can repair soul wounds, be sure to notify me immediately, no, as long as the Devil Fruit related to the soul, including the Soul Fruit, etc., you must get it as soon as possible, if you are weak, you can also tell me the clues, and you don't need to worry about everything else, do you understand?"

Chloe's voice was serious and solemn: "Remember." ”

"Very well, I look forward to your good news."
