"That's enough, that's enough, you can put me down now!"
"If I keep going down any longer, my bones will fall apart!"
The enthusiasm of his subordinates was so terrifying that Nuo Xia felt like he was jumping up and down like a kangaroo. After five or six minutes, he was finally let down.
"You guys..."
He helplessly glared at the embarrassed soldiers around him, took the coat handed over by the adjutant, put it on, stood up straight, and said in a deep voice:
"Clear the battlefield as soon as possible and return to the base before dark."
"Yes, Major General!"
There was a thunderous response from all around.
Obviously, after this battle, Nuo Xia's prestige and status in their hearts has increased a lot, and he is almost as revered and admired as a god.
And when the sailors were about to disperse, a sharp-eyed navy soldier suddenly shouted in surprise, "Huh? What is that?"
The rest of the people, including Nuo Xia, followed the sound and turned their heads to look, only to see a faint golden flash in the distant sky, shooting towards this side like lightning.
"What a speed!"
"Something is coming!"
Many people felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy. They raised their guns and aimed at the light heading straight for Rhode Island.
But Nuo Xia stretched out his hand to stop them, and looked up at the sky with some surprise in his eyes.
If I remember correctly, according to what Kizaru told him in the letter before, he should have just led the ship into the West Sea at this time, right? Why did he suddenly appear here alone at this time?
Snap!
The golden light exploded and dispersed, Kizaru landed firmly on the ground, and Nuo Xia had already strode forward to greet him, and gave him a hug with a smile:
"Long time no see, Mr. Porusalino, I miss you so much...Why are you here?"
Well, hugging is effortless at all.
Sure enough, compared to when he was in the G2 branch last year, the average height gap between him and the three future generals has been shortened a lot, and he is only half the length of Chopper.
"No need to be polite, Noxia."
Kizaru's face looked a little unsightly, and his breathing was a little disordered. His eyes wandered around, scanning the dilapidated streets:
"I came here as an emergency to provide support under orders from my headquarters... As long as you're fine, where are the drought victims?"
strangeness.
Why don't we even see any human hair from the Beast Pirates nearby?
Could it be that Du Galileo received the news in advance and knew that reinforcements from his headquarters were arriving quickly, so he temporarily gave up the battle and retreated?
"Well..."
Nuo Xia shrugged and gestured in a certain direction behind him, "Well, aren't they all over there?"
Um?
Kizaru turned his head and looked around in confusion, only to see a group of soldiers on a warship in the distance carrying a huge body and tying it to the rear of the ship.
Covered with bruises and unconscious...
If not Du Galileo, then who?
"..."
Kizaru suddenly froze on the spot, his mouth opened wide, and he suddenly turned his head and looked at Nuo Xia in disbelief.
"...You, you actually defeated the drought?"
to be honest.
I have known this uncle for a long time, and this was the first time that Nuo Xia saw him look so shocked and lost his temper.
"It was a fluke, just a fluke."
Nuo Xia scratched his head and smiled a little "shyly".
"We fought for three days and three nights and defeated the opponent from the front. This is not a fluke, kid..."
Looking up and down Nuo Xia's scar-covered chest, Kizaru finally came back to his senses and marveled, "I didn't expect that your strength has grown to such an extent after not seeing each other for more than half a year..."
That’s drought, one of the three major signs of the Beast Pirates!
Not to mention defeated, there are only a few lieutenant generals in the entire headquarters who can go head-to-head with a big pirate of the same level as Drought for several days.
Even as the commander of the G2 branch, if he wanted to defeat the thick-skinned Du Galileo, he had to use all his strength to do so, and it took a lot of effort.
It can be said.
Nowadays, Nuo Xia's strength is enough to be included in the top batch of all lieutenant generals, and he has officially entered the top ranks of this department's combat power.
"Today's young people are really scary..."
Kizaru paused, glared at Nosha again, and added angrily, "But you little guy... seems to have become thicker-skinned. I have said it many times, and you should not be too self-effacing."
The two exchanged pleasantries for a few more words, and Kizaru suddenly stopped talking and glanced in another direction of the sea.
"What's the matter, Lieutenant General?"
The sea fog in the early morning was a bit thick, and Nuo Xia couldn't see the distance on the sea clearly, and couldn't help but wonder.
"It seems that there are quite a few people like me who are thinking about you, kid..."
Kizaru muttered, patted Nuo Xia on the shoulder, and said with a smile:
"Go ahead, I won't interfere with your young couple's alone time. The monkeys of the Vegeta royal family... ah, no, they are the royal family. They are still waiting for me to pick them up. See you later when you have time."
After saying these words, he turned into a golden laser and shot towards the sky amid the admiration of countless sailors.
It really comes and goes in such a hurry... Nuo Xia looked at Kizaru's retreating figure and felt a little emotional in his heart.
Although Kizaru acted very free and easy from beginning to end, he was not a fool. From the tired look in the corner of his eyes, you could guess that this wretched uncle was probably doing it for himself, throwing away the warship and traveling non-stop on the sea for a long distance.
Running all night...
Thank you very much, sir.
Oh, and.
From now on, I will no longer doubt that you are an undercover agent sent by the revolutionaries.
He silently made this comment in his mind.
Then he simply arranged his hair, put on his shirt, and the cloak of justice, and came to the shore in the other direction, silently watching the figure in the thick fog, walking quickly on the moon.
With Kizaru's reminder, how could he still not guess who the visitor was?
"You also got rid of the warship, do you want to take the first step?"
Looking at the little rabbit running towards him with murderous intent, Nuo Xia smiled slightly, opened his arms and got ready for a warm hug, "I'm so touched, Brigadier..."
Bang!
The next moment, he was hit by Peach Rabbit who was traveling too fast and failed to stop. He was thrown high into the air with a scream like a puppet without strings...

Navy Headquarters.
It was another urgent high-level meeting. After discussing the issues related to the World Conference, the focus of the meeting shifted from how to protect the royal families attending the meeting to Nuoxia.
In the past two days.
Rhode Island in the West Sea, this little-known little place, is like the most important string, touching the hearts of the Warring States Period and others.
It makes them sleep and eat uneasily, and unconsciously devotes a lot of energy to continue to pay attention to the latest news coming from over there.
"Is there any communication with Porusalino?"
Warring States took a sip of black tea and turned to ask the flying squirrel a few seats away, "Counting the time, he should be arriving at Rhode Island soon, right?"
Flying Squirrel still has the rank of brigadier general at this time, the same as when he returned to the elite camp to visit Zefa.
However, because of his calm personality and reliable and trustworthy work, he is often allowed to attend some meetings as an exception. He is also one of the new generation leaders that the department focuses on cultivating.
"It is said that Mr. Porusalino took the risk and rushed over."
The flying squirrel shook his head slightly, with a solemn expression, "However, the latest report has not been sent back yet. General, the specific situation over there is probably not very optimistic..."
