Chapter 8: Brother William, I am very optimistic about you!
The third branch of the Great Line is still in the Guregel Sea area, but this time when faced with the sudden thunderstorm, the warship did not choose to resist forcefully, but bypassed the huge rain clouds and continued towards the destination.
"General Kizaru, are you really not afraid that the marshal will blame you?"
On the deck, looking at Kizaru lying leisurely on a deck chair and soaking up the sun, William, who turned into a fisherman holding a fishing rod, couldn't help but complain.
The weather on this great shipping route is weird and changeable. Generally speaking, warships are not afraid of wind and rain and can directly break through any obstruction.
However, under the general's order, the warship sailed on the sea in a strange arc.
They avoided all the wind and rain, but at least doubled the sailing time!
Originally, William could arrive at the headquarters within three days to receive the title, but due to Kizaru's actions, it would take at least a week to arrive at the headquarters!
In response to William's teasing, Kizaru said leisurely for reasons that he himself did not believe, "Brother William, don't be so impatient. I spent a lot of energy resisting the falling island and need a period of rest.
The marshal will understand me."
William twitched his lips. If he remembered correctly, there was not even a speck of dust on Kizaru's yellow suit that day.
That precise eight-foot magatama instantly defeated several small islands. If there weren't a few of them on the central island, I'm afraid Kizaru would have died along with him.
In this case, you told him that Kizaru consumed a lot of energy?
Tie Zi, if you lie to a country dog in the countryside, you will lose at least one ham sausage.
"General, I would like to ask you some questions about swordsmanship."
Just when William was also influenced by Kizaru and began to enjoy the time of "showing off", Dasqi and Kuina walked to Kizaru's side, and they begged to Kizaru sincerely.
Looking at the petite and cute Dasqi and Kuina, Kizaru pulled his eyebrows unconsciously. He looked at William who was looking at his nose and heart, and then scratched his temples in distress.
He wanted to fish and enjoy his leisure time. Who the hell told these two little girls that he knew how to use a sword?
Kizaru, who wanted to refuse, finally chose to stand up. On the one hand, he wanted to see the power of the Thunder Fruit, but on the other hand, he was also afraid that Daschi and Kuina would "complain" to the marshal.
As someone who has experienced it, he is quite aware of the preferential treatment "monsters" will receive in the navy.
Based on Kizaru's understanding of the Warring States Period, as long as there are no ideological problems with William, Taschi, and Kuina, they will all be candidates for generals in the future. In this case, does it matter whether the Sengoku will favor them more or not?
?
"Ahem, there is no problem in teaching you, but..."
Kizaru coughed twice, and then he intentionally or unintentionally turned his attention to William who looked like a wooden sculpture.
"Dasqi and Guina are both good children who know how to be grateful. They will definitely thank you, General, in front of the marshal."
William naturally knew what Kizaru wanted. This man had almost no desire for power. General was already the best position for him. He had never thought about taking it to the next level.
All Kizaru wants is stability.
Unlike Akainu, who is extremely righteous, and Aokiji, who has his own ideas, the plaque hanging in Kizaru's office is "ambiguous justice"!
Therefore, Taschi and Kuina's gratitude in front of the marshal can indeed impress Kizaru. After all, as long as Kizaru pretends to be nice, no matter how displeased Sengoku is, he will give Kizaru something in front of Taschi and Kuina.
Sweetness.
"Brother William, would you like to follow me to the new world? I am very optimistic about you."
After listening to William's words, Kizaru nodded with satisfaction. It has been a long time since he saw such a "general understanding" little guy in the navy, which made Kizaru have the idea of "robbing people".
But the next second, he was rejected by William.
The reason for the refusal was simple. William believed that he was not strong enough and following the general would only bring shame to the navy.
In fact, there is another reason why William rejected Kizaru, and that is because of Kizaru's ambiguous character, the department likes to send him to take charge of Marie Joa.
William approves of the navy, but that doesn't mean he can accept the Celestial Dragons.
Maybe he wouldn't do something like Luffy's mindless beating of a Celestial Dragon, but if he could kill one or two Celestial Dragons in a cunning manner, then he still had the guts.
After all, he could help Dolag as a bargaining chip to capture the Celestial Dragons, so there was nothing else he couldn't do.
Kizaru, who was rejected by William, shrugged his shoulders, and then went to teach Taschi and Kuina the swordsmanship with great interest.
Regarding Kizaru's swordsmanship, William's impression only rested on the swordsmanship duel between this general and the right arm of the Pirate King [Pluto] Rayleigh in the future, but the current Kizaru is not as good as the future.
Maybe he was interested, or maybe it was because Kizaru also had a love for talents. Anyway, in the next few days, Kizaru has been teaching Dasqi and Kuina seriously.
Under Kizaru's guidance, Kuina even completed her third move of Breath of the Moon. Although Taschi didn't understand any new moves, she also greatly improved her proficiency in the moves.
What surprised William the most was that Kizaru actually told Dasqi the secret of his "Light Speed Kick", trying to make Dasqi understand the "Thunder Kick".
However, Dasqi, who was not outstanding in terms of physical fitness, was not able to comprehend the physical skills similar to Kizaru's. However, under the aura of William's swordsmanship, she used the principle of light speed kick to greatly increase her own stunts.
, cut Shigure!
This made William very happy because this operation had achieved nothing. After all, after defeating Shi Ji, the old rooster was unwilling to hand over his swordsmanship to death.
William searched Shi Ji's palace and could not find any practice manuals.
Shi Ji's two famous swords were also amputated by Dolag. It can be said that apart from his military rank, William gained nothing this time.
In fact, William didn't really want the military rank. After all, accepting the military rank meant staying in the headquarters for further study, and the possibility of going out to cause trouble was greatly reduced.
William also confirmed with Smoker that the learning content in the Naval Elite School is divided into two categories, one is martial arts, physical training, six-style learning, and actual combat in the sea.
The other category is literature, which covers everything, including important subjects such as military literacy teaching and war drills.
However, from William's point of view, in this aspect, it would be enough for Dusiqi to pursue further studies, and he had no interest at all.
After all, this world adheres to the rule of breaking all laws with one force. Even if you have a hundred thousand navy, you can't withstand a sea shock from someone else!
No matter how strong your military qualities are as a Lieutenant General, you are no match for a move called Thunder Bagua.
No matter how strong your political philosophy is, your general will only be disgraced under the overlord's appearance.
