Chapter 92 The current situation in the East China Sea (2)
Annan and Esdeath told Smoker about the purpose of coming to the East China Sea.
"I also know some insider information about the Navy's comprehensive review."
Smoker blew out the smoke, "Ten years ago, Marshal Sengoku, then general, conducted an internal review of the navy. He suspected that many people with ulterior motives had been mixed into the navy."
"Marshal Sengoku resisted pressure from all sides, but in the end, under joint pressure from the World Government and the Navy, the matter was settled, and the results of the review were not announced."
"Looking at the bright side of things, maybe there really wasn't a problem if it wasn't announced," Annan said.
Regarding the internal review incident of the Warring States Period, Akainu also told Annan.
However, Annan felt that there were some minor problems with the censorship method at that time.
Problems within the Navy should be resolved within the Navy, preferably in private, but it has been done with a lot of fanfare, and has been reported on a large scale by the unscrupulous media. What kind of Navy is colluding with pirates? What kind of Navy is no longer just? What kind of Navy?
There are a lot of rumors about giving up protecting world peace.
And the world government started to engage in balancing again, taking this opportunity to beat the navy.
At that time, it was at the climax of the Great Pirate Age. Various rumors were flying in the sky and the World Government's indifference led to conflicts between ordinary people who did not know the truth and the grassroots navy, and doubts about the navy's "absolute justice".
It became more interesting later. The review results came out. Everyone saw that the navy in question was either bribed and planted by the CP or an undercover agent bribed and planted by World Government officials.
Good guy, it’s okay if the World Government wants to plant an undercover agent, your CP will come over and do it too, right?
The then Marshal Kong was so angry that he went directly to Marigioa to find Wulaoxing, called out the person in charge of CP9, cursed him in the face, and demanded that CP withdraw all undercover agents in the navy.
Someone may ask, are the navy and CP both subordinate agencies of the world government? Shouldn't they trust each other?
In fact, this is not the case. The three major organizations under the World Government are independent of each other. You have your KPL and I have my OKR.
The main task of my CP as a secret service agency at this stage is to deal with the revolutionary army. Who knows if anyone in your navy has colluded with the revolutionary army. Anyway, it is not my task to deal with pirates. What's wrong with planting some informants? I haven't arrested anyone yet.
What?
What, the undercover agent I installed leaked internal information of the Navy? Impossible! Absolutely impossible!
Our people are all professionally trained and will not reveal secrets unless absolutely necessary.
Don't blame me, why don't you find the reason within yourself?
……
Finally, under the mediation of the Five Old Stars, the World Government and CP withdrew the undercover agents who were on the surface. Afterwards, the undercover agents discovered by the Navy would be asked to leave the Navy or be transferred to other places for various reasons.
That is to say, from this time on, intelligence between the Navy and CP began not to be shared at all.
As for whether those people leaked information about the Navy?
Guess why the family members of the Navy later moved to Marineland and other safer islands.
"It's best not." Smoker snorted coldly, "But you should do the same thing as ten years ago. This task may get you burned."
"It's not so serious. We are here to inspect the work of the Navy in the East China Sea Branch." Annan said, "Then we will make a report and submit it."
"This is just one of the tasks. There is another task related to the scientific force, so it is inconvenient to say."
"I understand this. The confidentiality level of the scientific force's mission is very high." Smoker said.
"But the right to free movement is really good. You can go wherever you want."
"But we still can't avoid the mission." Annan said, "You have spent a lot of time in the East China Sea. What is the current situation in the East China Sea?"
"The situation in the East China Sea...how should I put it?" Smoker bit his cigar.
"This is the birthplace of Pirate King Roger, and the World Government's control here is tighter than in other sea areas."
"Tighter control is a good thing," Annan said.
"What a fart!" Smoker said viciously.
"?"
Annan and Esdeath looked at each other.
"Why, if the world government increases its control over the East China Sea, those civilians will have a better life."
Esdeath asked curiously: "Although I don't know the situation here, in the South China Sea, after we wiped out the pirates, the civilians generally thought that their lives were much better than before."
"No, you are overthinking."
Smoker shook his head.
"The success of the three operations in the South China Sea just proves that the world can be governed very well without the intervention of the world government."
"Huh?" Esdeath was a little confused.
"That's it." Annan smiled and patted Esdeath on the shoulder, "Colonel Byron reported to the superiors before starting the action and strongly requested the world government not to interfere. Including the subsequent governance of the jurisdiction, it is also the Kingdom of Duolun.
Unite several small countries to report to the world government not to send officials down."
"Really? Why don't I have any impression at all?"
"You're not interested in this aspect."
"But then again, the World Government...hahaha." Annan said with a smile, "How many unworthy things have these people done in the East China Sea?"
"That's too much." Smoker said.
"First of all, most of the funds for each branch were cut off. When I first came to Rogge Town, the funds allocated to this place by those guys were only half of the original amount."
"There is no money to maintain most of the warships and weapons. The navy is blocked in the base by pirates and dare not come out."
"Rogg Town has almost become a 'hive' of the East China Sea. The impact has not been eliminated yet."
"Later, I asked someone to investigate and found that the deductions here were relatively small. It was found that one branch had not paid out funds for three years, forcing the branch chief to take his subordinates to fish and farm to make a living. Fortunately, there were no pirates there.
Otherwise it will be miserable."
"They are still righteous. Some of the other branches of the navy sell their weapons to the black market, and some cooperate directly with the pirates. As long as the pirates pay a toll, they will turn a blind eye and let them go.
The pirates passed."
"These people who have betrayed their own justice should be your targets this time."
"Yes." Esdeath nodded, "But from what you said, the situation in the East China Sea should be very chaotic, but we didn't encounter any pirates along the way."
"That's because Lieutenant General Garp comes back every few months." Smoker replied, "Every time Lieutenant General Garp comes back, he arrests a large number of pirates and hands them over to the nearby navy branch. In addition,
When I first came here, I reported the Navy's lack of funding. The Navy's funding has never been lacking again, and this has stabilized the situation."
"The world government." Annan said, "After staying in the South China Sea for a long time, I have indeed forgotten what those losers look like, but if you cut off their financial path of deducting naval funds, they will definitely not give up."

"Of course. There have been a lot of people complaining about me in the past few years, but they haven't complained to me. I've long been used to it. They can't take the Navy's money, but it's too easy for them to take the World Government's money." Smoker holds a cigar in his hand.
"When you were in the South China Sea, how much reward did the world government give you when you caught a pirate with a bounty on his head?"
"Basically, you will be given the amount listed on the bounty order," Esdeath said. "After you get the certificate, go to the World Government officials and they will give you the corresponding amount of Bailey."
"I want to say something about this." Annan interrupted, "This is only for you. Others will deduct 10% to 20%. You are the first official to deduct your reward because you broke six ribs. After that,
No one will dare to play tricks on you."
"Smog, what's going on in the East China Sea?"
"East China Sea." Smoker lit a new cigar. "The Navy is okay. It has extra subsidies for the branch, which is similar to what you get, but others, like pirate hunters, can only get three to seven points."<
/p>
"Why is it only 70%?" Esdeath said.
"Seventy percent belongs to other people, and whether you can get 30% depends on their expressions."
"Whose face?"
"The faces of world government officials."
"Isn't this just like kneeling down to beg for food?"
"Then if you say that, you are really just kneeling down to beg for food. That's it. There's nothing you can do against them."
Smoke billows around Smoker.
"Many pirate hunters have already changed careers. If this continues, there will be no pirate hunters left in the East China Sea, and the pressure on the Navy will increase again."
"It seems that I made the right choice not to become a pirate hunter." Esdeath said to Annan, "Otherwise, sooner or later, I will be forced to become a pirate by these people."
