One day later, the Ice and Fire Man docked at the headquarters port smoothly.
"Headquarters..."
Crowe pushed up his glasses, glanced at the busy navy under the boat, and said mockingly to himself:
"I didn't expect that a little pirate from the East China Sea would not only become a navy, but also come to the headquarters. Fate is really playing tricks on people."
"What's the point? Ling and I were once bounty hunters, didn't we also become navy?" Feng stood up and leaned on the side of the ship, raised his head and said to Crowe beside him.
"Mr. Annan said that the navy will not reject people with justice in their hearts. Even if you are a pirate, as long as you have justice in your heart, you can become a navy."
"It would be great if that was really the case."
A wry smile appeared on Crowe's face.
After becoming a Marine, Crowe also gained a lot of information about the Navy. The attitudes within the Navy towards pirates like him who "forsake darkness and embrace the light" vary, but basically they will not let pirates become Marines.
"I'm afraid I'll turn into a pirate again when I come here."
"Why are you worried about this? As long as you are my subordinate, I can ensure that you are safe and sound in the navy."
Esdeath came to Crowe with a calm voice, but there was no doubt about it. Her image instantly became powerful and domineering in the eyes of everyone.
"But……"
"But what?" Esdeath interrupted Crowe directly, "No one in this department knows you. Don't spread the word that you were a pirate. Then there will be no problem."
"Pulu Pulu Pulu..." The phone watch on Esdeath's wrist made a sound.
Esdeath opened the flip cover, looked at the phone bug's lewd expression, and raised her eyebrows.
"Hey, old man. I'm at the headquarters. If I have anything to do, I'll talk to you over there."
"Oh? Tina reported that you just arrived at the Capital of Seven Waters yesterday, and have you arrived at the headquarters today? It's so scary." The phone bug pouted with a surprised look on his face.
Before Esdeath could answer, Kizaru continued.
"Oh, by the way, regarding your incident in the East China Sea, I didn't expect you to defeat the Golden Lion alone. It really surprised me. However, this incident had a great impact on the World Government, so I reported it to the world
The government report has made some reasonable changes... Anyway, congratulations, you are now a colonel."
"Sa, I won't talk to you any more. Talk to me after you settle down." Kizaru hung up the phone.
"Why did the old man make this call out of nowhere?" Esdeath said with a frown.
"Lord Esdeath is now a colonel?" Crowe was a little confused, "Can the Navy still be promoted beyond the rank?"
"If you can challenge a big pirate, you can also be promoted." Annan walked out of the cabin.
Seeing Esdeath close the phone, Annan thought for a moment and asked: "Colonel?"
"Hmm." Esdeath nodded, "Originally, I thought I could be directly promoted to major general. How about that? Have you researched anything on that Neptune-like fragment?"
"We have a clue." Annan glanced at the flag of the Naval Science Unit on the forecastle. "Culomi checked the fragments and initially judged that they were out-of-control sea beast weapons on Egghead Island in the New World. She contacted Egghead Island.
, but the other party denied it.”
"deny?"
"Yes, the people over there said there has never been a record of a sea beast weapon losing control. They asked Kurome to check it again. Now they are still quarreling in the research room."
Annan spread his hands.
"My rank was too low and some secrets could not be revealed to me, so they invited me out."
"It's okay to come out." Esdeath leaned against the side of the ship, "You take them around the headquarters, I'll go find the old man first."
