On the other hand, inside the dilapidated castle tower.
After telling Rayleigh about the plan, Gawain stood by the broken window, watching the battle outside and thinking deeply.
On the one hand, he is observing the fighting situation of his subordinates in order to avoid the unfortunate situation like Sauron's encounter with the royal deputy when he debuted.
On the other hand, he is waiting for a few special people.
As expected, not long after, Mr. Reilly was still helping to deal with Jack.
Xia Qi held a gun in her left hand and a cigarette in her right hand, and walked over to protect Nami and Robin.
Seeing their approach, Gawain nodded slightly and smiled.
"You came very quickly. How are you guys? Did you encounter any trouble on the way?"
"No trouble."
Robin frowned and shook his head, then thought for a moment and said doubtfully.
"It's just that we are a little confused.
Obviously we can defeat them more easily. It is clear that whether it is you, Miss Hancock, or others, just use the Overlord color more.
In that case, 99% of the resisters in Wano will lose their fighting capacity, and we will organize the country much faster.
But why didn’t we do that?”
Having said this, Robin took out a box of cigarettes thoughtfully and tried to take out one of them.
When Xia Qi saw this, her eyebrows froze.
"Well, it seems that I have really taught the younger generation badly."
"No, not at all. I prepared this for Mr. Captain."
Robin smiled and shook his head, then took out a cigarette and gestured to pass it in Gawain's direction.
Suddenly, a whole brand of white palms grew in the open space between her and Gawain. Those palms passed cigarettes to each other. Finally, the slender arm on Gawain's left shoulder took the cigarette and walked around Gawain.
whose neck was on fire for Gawain.
Gawain took a puff of cigarette and was silent for a moment, then nodded.
"You are right, indeed, we have the ability to end this war more easily.
However, what we need is not simply to defeat Kaido, but also to improve ourselves through the process of defeating Kaido.
You must have seen that during this battle, Rayleigh and I were both struggling, and Mihawk didn't even bother to get off the boat.
After all, for the three of us, especially for Rayleigh and Mihawk.
The current war can no longer bring them any improvement.
At the same time, the people I arranged to fight the big posters were Moriah who needed to regain his confidence, Dover who was seeking progress, and Big Bear who needed to further experience a sense of belonging and accomplishment.
Because the enemy is not the Whitebeard Pirates, I didn't even send Crocodile to exercise."
Having said this, Gao Wen let out a breath of smoke, raised his hand and pointed out the window, shook his head and sighed.
"Compared with the cadres of each division, the soldiers obviously have a more difficult time fighting.
Although all the cadres of the Hyakushou Kai Pirates were taken over by the officers, the soldiers of the Hyakushou Pirates are after all guys who have been training for a long time in the most dangerous paradise in the New World!
To put it bluntly, every musketeer in the world has a reward of at least 3 million to 5 million, and this number can even be higher!
Facing them, our soldiers... suffered heavy casualties.
But if they are not allowed to truly experience the taste of war, then in the future they will have to face an opponent who is far more dangerous than the pirate group, and whose discipline and comprehensive combat capabilities are even more dangerous without experience and knowledge!"
At this point, Gawain smiled at Robin with a sad face for a moment.
"So, you should understand that this is not so much an invasion as a large-scale military training.
Using our top combat power to control the situation, we can temper our cadres and soldiers through everything in front of us. This is the real meaning of launching this war!
This war will last for a long time, and may not even end within three to five days. I will not allow the Beast Pirates to lose easily. I will never allow it.
Next, Yixiao and Gion will give Kaido a chance to breathe, and Kaido can also take that opportunity to rescue his men's troubled big sign.
I will give them a chance to shrink their defense line, and then fully advance the battle line from Wano Country to the core of the Beast Pirates, Onigashima!
At that time, we will change a group of people to compete with the Beast Pirates, and those who are playing now will all have a different opponent.
I will personally take on the fight against Kaido, and at the same time, let the Shichibukai and a series of Mesozoic cadres become the opponents of Kanban and others.
In this anxious and dangerous war, the quality of soldiers, logistics and medical departments will be comprehensively improved.
Therefore, all soldiers who survived this war and tasted the taste of victory with us, thus creating cohesion and competitive spirit...
They will immediately be assigned to the Four Seas and the Grand Line, and become the seeds of outstanding cadres who can at least be in charge of a team, or even a company platoon.
Only in this way can our military structure be continuously improved in a cyclical manner.
Only in this way can our stall expand as quickly as possible..."
Having said this, Gawain flicked the ashes of his cigarette and smiled at Robin.
"My historian, you may record my words and my true purpose.
But try not to make it public while I'm alive, or even let me see that.
The soldiers can't see the top, so they don't understand our way of thinking, but no matter what, they who are fighting cannot know the fact that they are being poisoned by this cruel guy like me.
Of course, in a few years, when more and more soldiers emerge from wars like this, and when battlefields like this create more cadres and winners, you can feel free to disclose the content of my words.
Because by that time, even if they know that I am raising Gu, they will be proud to say that they are elites who are stronger than the dead.
They will even instill this spirit into their next generation, just like picking chestnuts from the fire and panning for gold in the sand.
Even if this kind of thinking is dangerous, a new and vigorous organization waiting to expand is indispensable, isn't it?"
After saying that, Gawain exhaled the last puff of cigarette with an expressionless expression, then he rubbed the thunder with his palm and wiped the cigarette butt into the air.
As the cigarette disappeared, Gawain turned to look at Nami and continued speaking softly.
"Regarding Wano, most of our information is superficial, and even most of the important information was provided by me based on my special knowledge.
So, Sister Xia Qi…….
I'm not very satisfied with your and Lu Qi's work!
It is true that the country of Wano has its own national policy and is extremely xenophobic, making it difficult to carry out investigation work.
Even CP0 level special intelligence agents may not be able to sneak into this place smoothly and investigate the corresponding information.
But I think the meaning of our existence is not to compete with the CP and the world government. How they do it has nothing to do with us. We should pursue better.
Therefore, Xia Qi, in the follow-up stage, I will further improve the work requirements for intelligence personnel, and I hope you will train your subordinates more, especially to allow the animal intelligence agents to make more use of their specialties!"
Having said this, Gao Wen lowered his eyebrows and looked towards Xia Qi.
Facing Gawain's tepid gaze, Xia Qi's shoulders tensed up and her spine went numb. She nodded quickly.
"I understand, sir, I will seize the time to improve the average quality of intelligence personnel, and at the same time strive to cultivate more and better top intelligence agents.
In this regard, I...maybe I can seek complementarity with Stussy and cultivate a group of female discs with more combat effectiveness through her!"
On the side, Robin's expression suddenly tightened when he heard this.
Female disc, huh...
What a term that makes a woman’s spine tingle.
Having served as an intelligence officer for many organizations, I know the meaning of female disc very well. From the very beginning, this word has contained great malice towards women and a considerable brainwashing process...
only…….
Looking at the expressionless Gawain, Robin really couldn't say anything to stop him. They were a new generation of political forces that were eager to pursue growth!
They are not a pure pirate group, nor a pure combat department!
It may be female disc, or it may be more darker terms.
As long as everyone's bottom line is not exceeded, sacrifice is inevitable for the ultimate political victory.
However, Robin could not hide her compassion as a woman after all...
On the side, Nami bit her lip briefly and then spoke with difficulty.
"This...well.
It’s really hard for those who are destined to make sacrifices in the future.
I think that if more spies are really trained, they are destined to be active on the silent battlefield, and they will not even be able to leave their names on the memorial tablet on the Black Bird.
So...well...Sister Xia Qi!"
Nami's lack of energy calmed down for a moment, and then she continued speaking with difficulty.
"As for the funding for the intelligence department, I have reserved quite a lot... ahem, I have also reserved a little bit of spare funds.
In short, I will give you an increase of 30% to 50% in funding.
No matter what, we can't give honor to the unknown heroes, so at least we must give them more gold.
Although gold is far from comparable to honor, it is still a compensation, right..."
Having said this, Nami clutched her chest in pain.
It's so heartbreaking, but the bear seems to have gotten bigger and it doesn't seem to hurt so much...
As for the side, Gawain couldn't help but narrowed his eyes after hearing Nami's words.
There is no way. Intelligence determines the tendency of victory to a great extent. No matter what, you must have a stronger intelligence department.
Although through comics, I have some important information about the pirate world.
But this is the real world of pirates, and a mere comic with Luffy as the protagonist can still draw some essence.
Just like the position of the Elephant Master, hehe, he knew that that guy was swimming on the sea near Wano Country, but when Gawain drove the Flying Black Bird towards Wano Country, he couldn't find it no matter what!
And Raff Drew, haha.
That is a secret place that even the Seagull World Economic News, which controls the entire sea, and the World Government, which controls the entire world, cannot find!
In short, intelligence is crucial, but the Black Bird, which was founded more than a year ago, cannot produce elite-level intelligence agents at all.
Therefore, even if Gao Wen is usually lenient, today he has to use the blood of countless soldiers to put pressure on Xia Qi and others.
Seeing that Xia Qi knew what was going on, Gawain skipped this chapter and continued thinking about it to Nami.
"What you said makes sense, just do what you say. Just as I believe you are an excellent navigator, I also believe in your ability to manage money.
As for now, let me see, the center of Wano's power is here, and I even cut the castle tower in half along with the mountain.
Next, Nami, take the soldiers and collect and sort out all the wealth in the Flower Capital Castle.
Not only the castle tower, but also all the merchants and families in the Flower City that have lost their management due to damage, you can also allocate your strength to deal with them according to the situation.
In addition, you are considered to be tight on time and have heavy tasks.
Soon we will also take action against daimyo and nobles from other places.
Therefore, prepare more people. If there are not enough, first borrow from each division the personnel to handle the division's finances.
The key is to get all the wealth that Wano can control as soon as possible, and then open the maritime train manufacturing workshop in Wano as soon as possible.
Make as much money as you can, and then spend as much as you can, but everything must be reasonable and prudent, that’s your job!”
"Yes!!!"
Nami immediately saluted Gawain in a heroic manner, and then hurriedly led people into the ruined castle tower.
At the same time that Nami started taking action, Gawain looked at Robin and nodded.
"Don't be in a hurry, Robin. After all, many precious things in Wano are hidden away by the big shots in this country.
So, you can take a look around the major collections of classics in the Flower City and simply record them.
After we find enough important figures, you will further excavate and sort out the historical materials left by Wano Country, and prepare to use those historical materials as trophies to announce our martial arts and culture to the world... Oh?"
Having said this, Gawain paused slightly, then he smiled and looked towards the door.
Facing the gaze of Gawain and others, Rayleigh walked in carelessly, and at the same time, he flew over the Tengu Mountain in his hand and raised it up for Gawain to take a look at.
Seeing Tengu Mountain flying over, Gawain nodded clearly, and then said with a chuckle.
"Mr. Lei Li, what's going on over there at the big signboard?"
"Haha, just as we predicted, Dover was struggling to improve while being suppressed, while Moriah used my help to secure the chance of victory.
As for Quinn, he has been hung up by the big bear and used as a tool to boost the morale of the soldiers!"
"very good."
Hearing this, Gawain nodded with satisfaction.
"Although we plan to use this battle to train our troops, we at least want to let the soldiers know that we have considerable advantages.
Big Bear's quick victory can ignite the confidence of the soldiers, and the defeat of a big Kanban-level opponent is heavy enough.
But other than that, I always feel a little worried, after all, Kaido just met Lingling twice not long ago.
Although only Lingling, Kaido, and Lingling's generals participated in their negotiations, we were unable to obtain accurate information.
But I feel that in the face of the increasingly serious pirate situation, no matter whether the two of them reach an agreement or not, Lingling will not sit back and watch Kaido be easily overthrown by us!"
"Ha ha."
Hearing Gawain's words, Rayleigh smiled with satisfaction and responded.
"Wouldn't that be just right, Captain, we are here for troop training!
If the soldiers were really allowed to try to withstand the heavy pressure of being surrounded by two Yonko-level pirate groups, wouldn't the training effect be even better?
What's more, we have already calculated that our top-level combat power can completely suppress two Yonko at the same time!
Although our middle-level combat power is slightly insufficient, as long as the top-level combat power determines the outcome, the victory or defeat of the middle- and lower-level combat power is not important!
In this case, I hope that Lingling will join the battle soon, but don't wait until the Beasts Pirates completely collapse and Lingling appears behind the scenes!
In short, now that we have a plan, let’s wait silently and let the real war begin when Lingling’s pirate group completely joins the battle!”
Having said this, Rayleigh placed Tenguyama Hitotsu on the ground, completely ignoring the fact that Tenguyama Hitotsu was stunned to the point of being stunned by what he and Gawain said.
After falling to the ground, Tengu Shan Feiche struggled to stand still, and then looked at Gawain in disbelief.
I haven't read much newspapers for only about two years, but how could someone actually become a legendary captain like Rayleigh? This force could even start a war with two Yonko pirate groups at the same time!!!
Although Wano was attacked so suddenly, the Hyakuju Ship Company, the peripheral force of the Hyakuju Pirates, had not yet arrived at the battlefield.
But no matter what, if the upper level of this force can really defeat the beasts and Big Mom at the same time.
No matter how heavy their injuries are, victory will eventually fall to them!
