After finalizing the plan to conquer Andulu, Smoger asked William to go to Major Breen to collect warships and supplies. He would take fifty sailors plus three Captain Cao and one ensign to complete this expedition.
Task.
Dasqi was also arranged by Smoker to be included in this operation, which was also to prepare for her future promotion in the navy.
When she heard that she could follow the warship to conquer the pirates, Dasqi was so excited that her whole body trembled. Although she had chased [Red-footed] Zepp with William before, it was just a pursuit of a loser who was in no danger. This time, she is going to participate in actual combat!
In the logistics department, William took Dusqi to find Major Breen, who was very busy. The moment he saw William and Dusqi, Major Breen threw out a transfer order and task list without hesitation. "Everything is here, you just go to someone to pick it up."
Major Breen didn't even raise his head, and was busy signing the documents in front of him while casually perfunctory William.
As early as when Smoker sent someone to notify William, he had already informed Brin of his thoughts, so Brin had already handled this matter quite properly.
"Thank you very much, Major Breen."
William saluted Major Breen, and then quietly led Dasqi out of the Logistics Office.
God knows how numb he was when he saw the mountains of documents. When he thought that he would have to deal with so many government affairs in the future, he couldn't help but cast his expectant eyes on Dasqi beside him.
.
"Lieutenant William, why are you looking at me like that?"
Sensing William's "expected" look, Dasqi couldn't help but shudder. She never expected that Lieutenant William, whom she was extremely grateful for, had already arranged her future to death!
If you have her in the future, your life will be even more tiring than that of Major Breen!
"It's nothing, Dasqi, you have to grow up quickly!"
If we don’t grow up and achieve military success, it won’t work if we don’t get promoted and take on heavy responsibilities.
William's inner monologue was not heard by Dasqi. She only heard the high expectations placed on herself in William's words.
After preparing the warships and supplies for going to sea, William and Dasqi left Rogge Town before it got dark. This was also the first time Dasqi truly left Rogge Town.
"Lieutenant William, our destination this time is the 16th Sea Area. I have just communicated with Colonel Gurren of the 16th Branch. They will support all our actions in the 16th Sea Area."
A rugged man with the rank of second lieutenant walked up to William. Although the two had the same military rank, the man was obviously dominated by William.
"Is it the sixteenth branch?"
William frowned slightly. His impression of this branch was only that of Colonel Mouse, who would join forces with the fish-man Aaron fourteen years later to exploit the villages under his command.
Is the current colonel of the 16th branch named Guren?
It seems that Colonel Mouse has not been able to make his mark yet.
"Have you investigated the scope of Andulu's recent activities?"
William walked into the cabin. On the wall, there was a huge sea map, which depicted the location of most of the islands in the East China Sea and the trajectory of the ocean currents.
The second lieutenant who accompanied William on the mission was named Dadi. He was also a second lieutenant from the local branch of Rogge Town. According to Major Breen's evaluation of him, he was a relatively potential sniper. He had studied in the headquarters, but because of the original
There were too many geniuses, so they were dismissed.
It is worth mentioning that Dadi and Smoker are old acquaintances. When Smoker joined the navy, he was at the same time as Dadi.
However, now Smoker has become the colonel of the headquarters, while Dadi is still the second lieutenant of the branch. This time Smoker asked William to bring Dadi along with him while earning military merit, so he did not forget to support his old comrade-in-arms. "The news we have received so far is that Andulu has been active in this area recently. It seems that he also knew that after killing the branch major, he would attract the navy's angry siege, so he deliberately chose a relatively complicated sea area to hide.
”
Dadi very seriously pointed out a sea area surrounded by many whirlpools on the map. If an ordinary pirate ship or small warship strays into this area without sufficient navigation experience, it is very likely that the ship will be destroyed here.
People die.
"Oh, I have found a feng shui treasure land for myself."
William twitched the corner of his mouth, took a sip of the coffee handed over by Dasqi, and then felt the bitterness between his lips and teeth, and his eyes became sharp.
The navigator on their ship is Captain Cao who has rich sailing experience. Judging from the current sailing speed, if they do not encounter special circumstances of strong winds and waves, they will be able to reach the chaotic sea area at least tomorrow afternoon.
Fortunately, there are basically no villages or merchant ships in that sea area, otherwise William would have to consider whether Andulu would take hostages or something.
Time passes little by little. On the sea, you can feel nothing except the sea breeze blowing across your face and the sea water flowing around you.
The dinner for the first mission was sea king meat and bones that William specially asked for from Rapp. Although the accompanying chef did not have as good cooking skills as Rapp, high-end ingredients often only require the simplest cooking.
Way, William looked at the simply barbecued bone-in meat in front of him, and his appetite was quite good.
The soldiers on the warship also expressed great satisfaction and happiness. Although they could also taste delicacies made from Neptune meat in Rogge Town, the quantity was not as much as what they enjoyed when they went on a mission with William. After just one dinner, the fifty naval soldiers on the warship completely fell in love with William.
After all, not all officers can let them eat the meat of sea kings!
In the early morning, when the first ray of sunlight dispelled the morning haze on the deck, William received a communication from Colonel Gurren of the 16th Branch.
The communication process is very short and can be briefly summarized in one sentence.
[Crazy Lion] Andulu was found repairing on a desert island in the chaotic sea. Guren hoped that William could successfully attack him as soon as possible in order to avenge his son!
Yes, the branch major who died in Andulu's hands was Guren's son.
Gurren, who is nearly sixty years old, is just such a son. If he hadn't been a match for Andulu, the person with animal devil fruit ability, even if he took people to find Andulu, he would be facing death. He would never give up taking revenge with his own hands.
of opportunity.
In the communication between the phone bugs, Gurren also implicitly expressed that he also had connections in the headquarters. If William could hand over Andulu's head to him, he would not mind finding something for William at the headquarters.
Relationship.
"Come on, isn't this also part of Smoker's plan?"
Looking at the silent phone bug in front of him, he couldn't help but sigh, is this also part of your plan, Smoker!
As long as you have half the vision in this headquarters, you won't be released to the East China Sea.
All I can say is that the East China Sea is really a magical place!
