"Oh, finally. It seems that everyone is very anxious waiting for me."
After hearing what Yixiao said, Gawain said jokingly, and then casually put his arm around Yixiao's shoulders.
Being hugged by Gawain, he smiled but there was no joy on his face. He only nodded in distress and continued.
"It's not that I'm impatient to wait for you, it's just that the situation in the past year has been a bit uncontrollable!
During the year you stayed on the throne to maintain peace and order around the world, we, your subordinates, really... made you worry.
Even me...hey, even me couldn't help but join in that kind of competition.
Sir, to be honest, in the past year, I, along with Aramaki and Barrett, have often caused trouble for Mr. Rayleigh and Hawkeye.
Of course, I won't do anything bad, it's just a verbal argument.
But no matter what, I still destroyed the unity of the Black Bird Alliance, please punish me!"
After finishing his words, he shook Gawain's hand gently with a smile, and then knelt down in front of Gawain.
Looking at Yixiao kneeling down, Gawain chuckled and helped Yixiao up.
"Is there anything that needs to be punished? Didn't you say it yourself? It was just a verbal argument.
If you pick up a knife and want to kill other people, then of course I will chop off your head, but if a verbal argument is also about judging guilt, then wouldn't many innocent people die in the world?"
Having said this, Gawain gently patted Yixiao's shoulder.
"Okay, relax, I have woken up from the endless work.
As long as I am here, there will be no chaos in this world. Just settle down and prepare for the next big thing!"
"event?!!"
After hearing Gao Wen's words, he couldn't help but purse his lips with a smile. Could it be that the Lord actually agrees with his side?
Otherwise, it’s impossible for adults to describe continuing to maintain stability as doing something big, right?
Now the only big thing we have left is to attack the new world...
etc!
Suddenly, Yixiao seemed to have thought of something. He turned his head slightly and couldn't help but pointed his ears in the direction of the Red Earth Continent!
Yes, attacking the new world is just the top priority in the eyes of myself and others!
For adults, the new world may not be a top priority!
So, is the big thing that adults say is...?
Thinking of this, Yixiao's shoulders trembled slightly, and then he gritted his teeth nervously.
Yes, it is indeed time for adults to sit in that seat!
Although the Five Old Stars are not considered vegetarians in the corpse position, with their old thoughts, they are no different from real old people even if they have a long lifespan!
In this case, it is more appropriate to leave the future era to younger talents!
Just as Yixiao was thinking about it, Gawain gently bumped into Yixiao's shoulder.
"It's better to choose a day than to hit it. Let's just have a small meeting today.
Let me think about it, let's ask Zhepu to cook some good food tonight, and let's have a good chat together.
Invite not just us, but also the monsters from the navy, I think they will give me this face!
Yixiao, you come and inform everyone, tell them that I am waiting for them here!"
Gawain smiled sternly, then relaxed his smile, lazily went to the beach chair nearby and basked in the sun leisurely.
Not far away, Keya, who was belatedly aware of the situation, finally learned the news of Gawain's awakening.
She quickly came over and took care of Gawain nervously.
Yixiao listened quietly to Gawain's movements. After confirming that Gawain had sat down to rest, he nodded, then hurried back to the cabin and quickly contacted everyone.
In this way, the news of Gawain's awakening truly spread to the eyes of the powerful around the world.
It stands to reason that an advanced civilization can use the ability to listen to the sounds of all things to communicate with subordinates all over the world.
But he did not do that, because if he did that, it would not only make his subordinates nervous because of the reality that Gawain can monitor and contact them at any time, but also damage Gawain's majesty.
In short, after walking around the ghoul world in Tokyo, Gawain finally returned to the sea, and he did enjoy the sunshine on the sea and the waves in front of him.
Time passed unconsciously, about half an hour later.
Sa!
With the sudden dissipation of light, Kizaru was the first to come to Gawain.
"Hey, sir, you've been working really hard these days.
He actually accomplished a job all by himself that tens of millions of naval forces could not accomplish!
You are worthy of being my favorite lord, my lord has the talent of being a god, hehe!"
After the old man smiled obscenely, Kizaru leisurely sat down next to Gawain.
Taking the drink from Keya casually, Kizaru took a sip and exhaled happily.
"Ha, it's better to hang out with the adults. It's only noon and you can rest at public expense.
During these days when you were away, I followed the Marshal of the Warring States Period, and I was really hungry for nine meals in three days.
In the past year, all the money spent by the Navy has been used to provide pensions to soldiers.
That war killed too many people and destroyed too many families. The pensions have not been paid out yet, and the Navy's canteen can't even provide four dishes and one soup.
This is still Marin Ford, who relies on the reputation of the Navy Headquarters to ensure that every meal has at least one meat, one vegetable, and enough rice.
As for the navy branch below, haha!
That guy could have been in the fish and meat village, but didn't you take over the public security? In the beginning, various branches of the navy were struck by lightning. Even two branch officers at the level of lieutenant general were killed by you.
.
As a result, the branch will be even worse, and it may not even be able to manage enough rice.
However, Xuanniiao did a good job in logistics and provided a lot of material support to each branch, so we could barely survive."
Speaking of this, even though he was Porusalino, who had always been bohemian, he had a lot of melancholy in his eyes.
But just a moment later, all the melancholy in his eyes disappeared!
"Look at me, I'm just talking about useless things. Who hasn't suffered through this? My lord, you haven't left the throne for a whole eleven months.
I really want to rest, but if I were to rest for eleven months, I would be able to sit on it until my butt is broken.
What’s more, you haven’t rested yet, but are always monitoring any illegal behavior in the small half of the world!”
Porusalino glanced at Gawain with admiration, then he shook his head slightly and continued.
"Even those who died in that battle, if they could see the great route of this year with their own eyes.
When they discovered that their hometown had almost become a peaceful village where the doors were not closed at night.
Then they will also be very happy.
Sir, you...hehe.
It's not that I'm being sensational.
It’s just, thank you for your hard work!”
After the words fell, Porusalino curled his lips proudly and toasted Gawain with a glass of wine.
Gawain drank a glass, then put down the glass and asked Porusalino.
"I heard that Sakaski and Kuzan were having a lot of fun recently?"
"Ha, that's right, of course."
Kizaru burst into laughter.
"That's what it is, sir.
After the previous battle, didn’t we achieve a great victory?
After the previous battle, didn’t we achieve a great victory?
Okay, maybe not a total victory, but no matter how much we lost, the pirates lost more than we did.
In short, we won, so the Warring States Marshal will soon be rewarded.
If it weren't for the difficulty in paying out pensions this year, the team marshal would have been ready to go to Marigioa to replace Commander Kong!
It has been delayed for almost a year now. According to the Warring States Marshal's wishes, he will really leave the navy in eight to nine months at the latest.
Others have left, but the positions left behind are still there, and that position will inevitably be filled by a few of our future leaders.
Sir, you know me well, I am not interested in boring days with no rest.
So either Sakaski or Kuzan, one of them will succeed Sengoku as the naval marshal.
As a result, haha, one of them is ice and the other is fire, isn't this causing trouble?
At first it was a simple dispute between marshals, but later it evolved into a dispute over routes.
One is radical, the other is maintaining stability, the other is focused on attacking the new world, and the other is focused on gathering the world.
In short, they were quite noisy during this period. If you didn't wake up at this time, then in a few months, they might have a life and death battle to decide who is the marshal!
Logically speaking, the position of Navy Marshal should be decided by the Five Old Stars.
But to be honest, sir, since your sudden rise, our navy has relied on your back, and it has indeed become a little bit obedient.
Although Wulaoxing hinted that Kuzan would inherit the position of marshal, no one in the navy was willing to listen to Wulaoxing. Even Mr. Garp, who originally supported Kuzan, chose to leave because of Wulaoxing's hint.
Don't care about worldly affairs.
Maybe Wulaoxing felt that they really wanted to take your wishes into consideration, so Wulaoxing just hinted and never issued an order.
In this way, Wu Laoxing's opinions were completely put aside by the two of them, and they still planned to have a good fight to decide.
You should take good care of them both.
The posture of the two of them made me feel uneasy."
After the words fell, Porusalino sighed leisurely.
What has he been doing every day in the past year?
Sakaski talked to him in the morning.
Kuzan will talk to him in the afternoon!
In the evening, Warring States will have to talk to him!!!
Can I have some private space?
Listening to Porusalino's sigh, Gawain roughly understood the navy's problem.
Porusalino did not mention the Blackbird, so the ideological disputes that occurred in the two departments at the same time were probably initiated by the Navy.
After the war, the Navy and the Black Bird had a relationship that they had shouldered together.
In addition, the two parties are very close to each other, and Xuanniao also has a series of entertainment businesses such as casinos.
After going back and forth, it is reasonable for the Navy and the Black Bird to gradually get closer.
Gawain could even imagine that after the two parties gradually became familiar with each other, Sakaski himself was also a very charming person, and so was Kuzan.
As a result, I am more emotionally inclined to Sakaski's smile, Aramaki, and Barrett.
They really followed Sakaski and really wanted to enter the new world.
As for Rayleigh, Hawkeye, and Big Bear, who are closer to Kuzan in terms of personality.
Of course they don't want to.
so…….
Why…….
Before going outside, you must first make peace with yourself, Gawain gently clapped his hands and said to Kizaru.
"I understand, don't worry, I will comfort them in my own way.
Take a good rest. If you haven't eaten well recently, you can eat well here.
I’ll wait for Kuzan and Sakaski!”
After saying that, Gawain looked towards Marineford from a distance.
About forty minutes later, two ships that looked very awkward appeared in Gawain's eyes.
The two ships clearly had the same goal, but the distance between them was huge.
They would rather drive in parallel than one behind the other. The contradiction has really deepened.
When Gawain saw them both, they naturally also saw Gawain.
So next, Kuzan galloped on the sea for a while, while Sakaski flew quickly in the sky.
Well, they both arrived at the Black Bird at exactly the same time, but one of them landed on the bow and the other jumped on the stern...
After coming to Gawain's side one by one, Sakaski stood there with his arms folded and a cold face.
Kuzan put his hands in his pockets, without looking at Sakaski, and just saluted Gawain.
Looking at the two people who hated each other so much, Gawain shook his head in amusement.
"Look at what you two look like?
Damn it, are you playing house?
Is it a child? How many days should I ignore the other party because of a conflict?
You’re still a fucking admiral, and you want to be a marshal?”
Having said this, Gawain waved his hand to Porusalino who was not far away.
"Porushalino, why don't you become marshal of the navy?"
"Ah, don't, don't, don't, why don't I resign to raise flowers for you, sir!
Doesn’t that Binz scholar on your ship study optimized planting every day?
I used my sunshine to help him get it!"
While joking, Sakaski waved to Porusalino and Kuzan.
He does have the qualifications to wave his hands, who makes him the senior of both of them.
Seeing Gawain using Kizaru to put eye drops on both of them, Kuzan and Sakaski temporarily put aside their hostility and came together to salute Gawain.
After saluting, the two of them naturally came to Kizaru's side and sat down across from Kizaru without looking at each other.
As soon as his butt touched the bench, Sakaski couldn't help but said to Gawain.
"Sir, after the depression of that battle, the New World Pirates quickly got rid of the shadow of defeat and gathered around Red-haired Shanks!
Even Charlotte Lingling's first officer followed the redhead!
On the one hand, the Red-haired Pirates are gradually becoming bigger and stronger, and they already have the shadow of the Rocks Pirates!
On the other hand, Blackbeard Teach, who inherited Whitebeard's legacy, is hiding in Beehive Island and developing secretly!
Red hair and black beard, they are both bright and dark, and they are about to regain all the strength they lost last year!
We must not sit back and watch them grow bigger and stronger, we must take the initiative to go out and finally defeat everything they have left!"
"fart!!!"
Before Sakaski could finish speaking, Kuzan slapped his thigh hard.
"In that war, more than 2 million navy personnel died, 1.3 million people were seriously injured, and more than 5 million people were slightly injured!
In order to treat the wounded and pay pensions to the dead sailors.
The Navy is still in a loan situation until now, and the monthly military expenses must be paid back to Marie Joa!
In this state, the entire navy is eating rice bran. Although the military strength has been replenished, the combat power of the navy has not increased at all, and the vast majority of new recruits have not even left the training ground!
Under such circumstances, you actually want to lead them to continue fighting?
You don't want to eradicate pirates!
You simply want to eradicate the navy first!!!" ()
