Chapter three hundred and eighty-fifth, the new direction of the Navy
Naval Headquarters, Marineford.
Tick...tick...tick...
In the headquarters fortress, there was a crisp knocking sound from the end of the corridor, like the sound of someone hitting the stone wall with a wooden stick. But obviously no one was that bored, nor did they have the guts to be so bored in front of the hot-tempered new marshal Akainu. This
A rhythmic sound, more similar to footsteps.
Dalmecia and Tea Dolphin, who met their companions halfway, turned their heads when they heard the sound. When they saw the person coming, a trace of surprise flashed in their eyes, and then they stood at attention and saluted.
"Admiral Fujitora!"
They knew that the bullshit of recalling one of their own was just a conspiracy by the government to confuse the pirates. Fujitora was an out-and-out pirate, but he only made a deal with the Five Old Stars, and then his identity was cleared.
However, this does not prevent them from agreeing with this old blind man.
On the contrary, after knowing that he was the enemy of CP0 in order to protect the innocent people of Telephone Island and was rewarded, the righteous Tea Dolphin and others were full of respect for him.
In this sea, there are many powerful people, but there are very few powerful people who are willing to help others, and even fewer powerful people who are willing to help others, even at the expense of themselves!
They were so convinced by the word "general"!
only……
"Mr. Yixiao, you... actually don't have to come."
The tea dolphin chewed the cigarette and whispered a melancholy reminder.
To ordinary soldiers, Fujitora was a general and held a high position of authority, but Akainu said the same as him, he only trusted Aokiji.
The rest of the people with innocent backgrounds cannot believe it.
How much more a pirate who was cleared halfway?
The result is.
Fujitora actually doesn't have much real power in the headquarters. Akainu only regards him as a useful thug. He doesn't make things difficult for him, but he doesn't like him either.
Of course Fujitora understood this, but thinking about the evil mark left on his left arm, he supported Akainu's decision.
Under the constraints of the curse, as long as he does not violate the established principles, he must report the information he knows to Lovett once a month. Even if there is a premise that it cannot harm the interests of the navy, it can help Lovett grow bigger, which is equivalent to
Disguised damage to naval interests.
But today is different.
"Thank you for reminding me, but I have to come today."
Fujitora opened his green and blurry eyes and looked at the teacup, then passed the two of them and walked towards the marshal's office.
The two people behind looked at each other and shrugged.
Many generals have gathered in the office, including the older generation of the navy and the newly selected navy, filling the seats.
What is more conspicuous is that, in addition to General Kizaru, there are two free chairs to the right of Akainu.
One is reserved for Fujitora.
The other one is yet to be determined.
The green bull in the original work has not appeared for some reason to this day. After discussion with Akainu and Tsuru, they have decided to select someone who is qualified for the third general position from among the existing lieutenant generals. Currently, the most vocal people in the navy, except for the tea dolphins and the
Peach and Rabbit have two general candidates, and the last one is of course "Naval Hero", "Vice Admiral Iron Fist", Monkey D. Garp!
"marshal!"
Fujitora nodded slightly as he easily captured Akainu's position with his sense of sight.
Seeing him pushing the door open, Akainu frowned, but in front of so many people, he couldn't say anything, so he nodded expressionlessly and said.
"Well, sit down and wait until everyone arrives."
Fujitora breathed a sigh of relief and came to Kizaru's side.
After sitting down, the two people turned and looked at each other, as if they were talking.
You're here too?!
"Ahem!"
On Akainu's left hand, He coughed twice, causing the two of them to sit upright in embarrassment.
No one dared to delay Akainu's call. Soon, before Fujitora's buttocks could get warm, the meeting officially began as the last major general sat in his seat panting heavily.
"I summoned everyone here today. I believe you already know the reason."
The marshal's epaulettes added a lot of dignity to Akainu. Under the baseball cap, Akainu, who was chewing a cigar and with scars on his face, glanced at the office with a pair of tiger eyes and said: "One is the distribution of pacifists. At present,
The number of pacifists is limited, and the number of pirates in different sea areas varies with demand. After our candid negotiations today, I will not tolerate anyone who dares to talk behind my brother's back!"
The older generation of generals did not change their expressions.
The new generation of generals are a little embarrassed.
But he quickly regained his composure and looked at Akainu with some expectancy.
This is normal.
The strength of the Pacifist is obvious to all. One Pacifist is worth thousands of well-trained ordinary soldiers. If you bring a few of them when you capture the pirates, not only will the casualty rate be greatly reduced, but the mission can also be completed more efficiently.
Accumulate military merit.
As a military commander, who wouldn't want a few more units under their command?
Yes, they are members of a united navy. They can be subdivided into each sea area, and most of the time they fight independently.
One more Pacifist means more insurance.
Having a clear view of everyone's expressions, Akainu nodded slightly: "We can discuss this later. Let's talk about the second thing first."
Exhaling a smoke ring, Akainu said calmly: "About... the issue of the new Shihai General Base."
The goal of launching a war against the Shichibukai has been achieved, as has the goal of a global conscription. The three fires that Akainu set under pressure after taking office have begun to bear fruit.
but,
This does not change the current situation of weak naval power on the sea.
Not to mention those bastards who contacted the Black Beast Federation after the last war while pretending to be a member nation, the navy was struggling to deal with the aftermath of the Golden Lion Sword's attack on the Red Earth Continent.
If it hadn't been for He's proposal of a world-wide military recruitment that abandoned established conventions and promoted exceptional personnel, perhaps it would have been just as Lovett said, and the voice of the navy would not have been heard in the sea in the next few years.
But now the sound is not loud.
Two premises.
First, due to the frenzy of joining the army brought about by the Great Recruitment, countless people went to sea. There were more than millions of people. Of course, with such a huge number, they could not all be integrated into the navy, nor could they feed so many soldiers.
Once those who lost out in the "score battle" leave, it won't be that easy to mobilize the huge military force that will be used in this war against the Shichibukai.
Second, this war is not without cost. It is obviously a "seven" war sea, but after careful calculation, there are only three battles. While it is not convincing enough, the fall of "Ao Oni" Tori also made many high-ranking hyenas
He is eyeing the navy.
Now we can rely on the impact of the world conscription to temporarily withstand the pressure, but what about the future?
So these two things can actually be boiled down to one thing.
That is how to ensure that in this dark age, the navy can continue to maintain its combat effectiveness and have the confidence to compete with the monsters of the new world at any time!
The Great Recruitment is already in the process of increasing its own talent selection. Then, it can also curb the number of pirates entering the Grand Line from the source!
………………
The third update is on the way, you can get up and watch it tomorrow morning.
Men, when you make a mistake, you must admit it, and when you are beaten, you must stand upright.
Isn't it normal to sleep on the sofa after drinking too much and being scolded by your wife?
