Chapter 468 The Troubled Trio [Three-in-One] Asking for a Monthly Ticket
The SWORD unit, also known as the Sharp Sword Unit, is currently in charge of General Akainu. The secrecy level of this detachment is extremely high, reaching the top secret level.
But at the same time, there are quite a few people who know the existence of this team. At least the chiefs and adjutants of the five branches of New World know the existence of this team.
It seems that it is not confidential enough, but even the World Government is not aware of the existence of such a team, because the Sword Troop is too sensitive. If it goes online, it can even be said that it is a detachment created by the Navy for independence.
Think about what kind of threat an army with independent finances, personnel, and management will pose to the ruler. It can be said that this is the boldest attempt since the Warring States period took office.
For a long time, the navy’s operating model has been allocated funds by the world government, and then the navy uses the money to maintain the operations of its headquarters and branches. Once the world government cuts off the supply, the navy will be paralyzed.
This is a very reasonable thing. After all, the navy is the navy of the world government, not the navy of the world. If the world government cannot control the navy, then the navy is a scourge for the world government.
But this is not a good thing for the navy at all. This model is too lagging. If the navy wants to make any big moves, it has to report layer by layer.
After reviewing and considering countless levels of personnel, finally giving one piece, even if it is finally agreed, will waste a lot of time, resulting in missing the best time.
In two years' time, the world government will reconvene the World Conference, and at the World Conference, there will be a topic on the adjustment of the navy's military expenditure.
Six years ago, at the last World Conference, the navy's military expenditure reached an unprecedented peak, but at the World Conference two years ago, Wu Laoxing and other officials mentioned this issue from time to time.
After all, the military expenditure has increased by 70%, but the number of captured pirates has not increased by more than 70%, which means that these military expenditures have not been fully converted into performance.
But because CP was caught at the time to infiltrate the navy, the world government could not recover military expenditures and allocate funds to CP, and this account has continued.
What about another two years? Now what the Warring States holds can attack CP, so as to ensure that Wulaoxing will not recover military expenses and re-allocate to CP, only the matter of CP infiltrating naval intelligence personnel.
Although CP is wrong in this matter, if Wu Laoxing intends to help CP, it can also be said that the navy's reverse osmosis work is not in place.
Perhaps this is not enough reason to allow the Five Old Stars to recover the increased military expenditures of the Navy, but how about maintaining it for another four years? If CP makes no mistakes within four years after the next World Conference, then Wulaoxing is very likely to recover its military expenses.
Although it will be six years later, Warring States may not work until six years later, but choose to retire at a certain time, but the Navy still has to face this problem.
Warring States is not an irresponsible person. Therefore, he must grasp both hands. One is to continue to find ways to suppress CP, and the other is to open up the navy. As for throttling? It is easy to go from frugal to extravagant, but difficult to go from extravagant to frugal.
It was against this background that the Sword Force was born. The Sword Force wanted to find a new way for the navy, a way to maintain the status quo even after the world government reduced the navy's military expenditure.
Of course, the Sharp Sword Troop cannot exist just to make money, and he also undertook an experiment for the Navy.
That is to find a way to break the situation in an increasingly stable situation, allowing the navy to further expand its advantages, and even truly break this weird balance, so that justice can spread to every inch of the sea.
The way Warring States thought of was to go deep into the pirates and start to disintegrate the pirate forces from the pirates.
Think about it, how pleasant is it for the pirates to merge and the four emperors to die suddenly?
Why does the Navy want to re-open the road from the so-called "paradise" in the mouth of the pirates to the real new world at all costs? Blocking is also a way, but Warring States doesn't want this bomb to explode under his feet.
Since nearly ten years ago, when he limited the time for the Zhanye detachment to enforce justice, he has been laying out this game of chess.
Unblocking the Murloc Island, and even allowing the Dragon Palace Kingdom to keep some coaters on the Murloc Island, and even let Aokiji station there for a year to check the construction of the entire Murloc Island hub.
The purpose is to make the New World thirsty for fresh blood from "Paradise". At this time, some of them are obviously pirates, but in fact they are the navy of the Sword Troop, becoming the new blood of the New World and integrating into the various royal forces.
And in the mature period, when the navy gave an order, the friction between the four emperor pirate groups continued, causing wars. In the end, the isolated and helpless emperors were just fish and meat at the mercy of the navy?
This is the Sword Force, the third sharp sword that tears the night apart from Skyler and Garp in the New World.
And this troop, if they want to enter the new world and become a member of the Four Emperors, a very important step is to allow them to enter the new world, instead of falling into the hands of their own people within the 219 nautical mile naval waters.
Therefore, the chiefs and adjutants of the five branches of the New World must understand this plan, and even become participants in this plan. Skyler is no exception, and she is even one of the promoters of the plan.
Even, it was her proposal to use the sword troops to collect money and hoard more military expenditures for the navy, and it is precisely because of the existence of golden fruits that this link has become a possibility.
Jinjinguo is a superhuman type, not a natural type, so it cannot produce a large amount of gold by itself. However, in terms of plundering gold, Jinjinguo has very unique skills.
Because this fruit can give the ability user the ability to manipulate gold, that is to say, if two pirate ships pass by, the gold on the ship will be manipulated by the fruit ability user and leave their original position.
But why is this fruit used on the undercover pirates? Because the gold "collected" by the navy must be turned over to the world government, but pirates don't need it, otherwise they are not thieves.
This is exactly the reason why this team and this plan are classified as top secret, and even the world government does not know about it, because if the world government knows, then the gold is not the navy's.
After a short thought, Dauberman and Ghost Spider finally realized why Skyler told them such a top-secret matter.
That's because, from the moment Skyler opened his mouth, they have been tied to Akainu, Sengoku, and the future of the navy. They are heroes if they are successful, and they are also traitors when the world government pursues them.
In other words, they no longer have any reason to oppose what Akainu has done, because after learning this top-secret information, they are members of the Sword Force.
In this way, as their immediate bosses in various senses, Dauberman and Ghost Spider, where do they have the capital, reason, and position to stand opposite Akainu?
Seeing the triumphant smile on Skyler's face, Dauberman said with a dark face, "I regret it now. I have to agree to the meal you just ordered."
The ghost spider also nodded helplessly. If they agreed directly, although they would be missed by other generals of the Hawk faction, both Akainu and Skyler owed them a favor.
But Skyler directly threw out Wang Zha. Not only did they have no way to make Skyler owe them favors, but they even had to let this plan work out in the future.
By the way, did anyone really negotiate with Skyler like this? As long as it is not Dauberman and the ghost spider sitting here, but a general who is loyal to the world government, Skyler will overthrow the entire plan.
However, the two of them looked at Skyler and understood that it was because of the two of them that Skyler dared to dump the king bomb on them. From another point of view, it was also a kind of trust.
After all, only generals who are loyal to the navy and justice, not to the world government, are eligible to participate in this matter. Skyler's opening can be regarded as certification for the two of them.
"Welcome to join the Sword Squad, and remember to report to Admiral Akainu later."
Seeing that the two of them had reacted, Skyler also smiled and raised the wine glass again, and the two sighed and raised the wine glass as well. After the three of them clinked glasses, this opinion was considered to be an agreement.
The two sighed, not because they didn't want to join the plan, but because of their own greed, no one could accept the result of cheating themselves.
"Don't be dejected. When you have money, you will also be the first to get the bonus. Dauberman, tell me, money or weapons, which one do you like?"
Skyler got up and poured wine for the two of them himself, and Dauberman said without hesitation, "Weapons!"
"I see, what about you, ghost spider?"
Skyler looked at the ghost spider, and the ghost spider looked at the still shaking cup noodles, and said firmly: "Weapon!"
Hearing the exact same answer from the two, Skyler smiled and said, "No one asks for money for the co-author?"
Dauberman glanced at the ghost spider, and then said with a smile: "If you take the money and bring it back, aren't you also buying weapons?"
"Okay, when I have money, I will find you eight or ten famous knives and share them with you."
After Skyler finished speaking, he raised his glass again. The two looked at Skyler's own glass that hadn't been filled with wine at all, and didn't bother to pierce it. They raised the full glass in their hands and drank directly.
In the early morning of the next day, when Akainu was still thinking hard about how to defeat those generals one by one, two generals suddenly came to the office, bringing information on the old and stubborn weaknesses in the faction.
Akainu was a little confused, but after hearing the explanation from the two, he had no choice but to laugh helplessly, and accepted the two generals. Sure enough, Skyler's work was as unconstrained as Garp's, but it was not disadvantageous.
There is no general who has no stains on his body after being a soldier for half his life, and even the stains they spurn on their lips are not untouched.
It's just that Akainu didn't think about these stains as a threat, and he never collected them, but Dauberman is different from the ghost spider, they have them, and they are willing to take action.
After all, they are all tied to the same boat. Rather than just waiting to die, it is better to think about how to make up for the leak and make the boat sail instead of waiting to be sunk.
One week before the recruits' graduation assessment, at the meeting of the generals of the Hawk Faction, the voting results suddenly reversed on the topic of Ace entering the navy and becoming a member of Akainu's command.
More than 70% of the generals chose to support Akainu's decision, and believed that it was the best decision to have Akainu supervise and manage Ace, the son of One Piece.
After all, if they cannot prevent Ace from entering the navy, then there must be someone strong enough and righteous enough to ensure that Ace will not be killed or arrested as an illegal thing, or at the moment of tarnishing justice.
And Red Dog is the best candidate.
There is no doubt about the strength of Akainu. His distaste for pirates and his ruthlessness in enforcing justice have been witnessed by everyone for decades. If Ace really made a mistake that should not have been made, then Akainu will never show mercy.
In this way, this statement also convinced other hawkish generals. Although they did not expressly support it, they should not leapfrog to the Warring States to report this matter.
This result made Akainu heave a sigh of relief. After all, he could no longer spend any more time negotiating terms with these people. Ace's graduation is coming soon, and this is the last chance to deal with it peacefully.
But fortunately, the result is still satisfactory.
At the end of the meeting, Skyler, who was spending time at the boot camp, also received the news almost simultaneously, which made her feel a lot better.
Although the first piece of cake of the original sword army was divided into two extra pieces, but in the long run, Akainu's move has pinched the diehards in the hawk faction.
If the former Akainu was only the nominal leader of the Hawk faction, then after this time, as long as he has the heart, he can integrate and control the Hawk faction at any time.
As long as the majority is mastered, the Hawk Faction becomes a tool in the hands of Akainu.
Although the unity of the hawks may not be good for the doves, as long as the crane does not fall, the hawks will never be able to make waves. After all, the red dog can control the hawks, and the crane can control the red dog.
Even without the need for other dove generals to come out, the hawks can't make a big difference in major events.
"Huh~huh~ these boys, I have to say that their physical strength is really good."
Zefa, who had been leading the recruits to practice, had to go back to the rest area to drink water to adjust his state.
Today is the last day of joint training in the new barracks, and the rest of the week is for exam preparation time, which is reserved for the instructors of the theory class. Therefore, Zefa put down his airs rarely and started practicing with this group of people.
Of course, the intensity of Zefa's training is naturally not comparable to these recruits, but he has increased the intensity for himself and used heavy weight to do groups with these recruits.
But after all, he is still old, and he has been in a state of maintenance all year round. Even Zefa can't bear such high-intensity training for a while.
Skyler looked at Zefa, who was sweating but smiling happily, and decided to give him good news.
"Ace's matter is settled, so Yamato will not encounter any trouble."
Hearing Skyler's words, Zefa was stunned for a moment, took a sip of water slowly, and said, "Akainu really did it? It seems that the old man still underestimates him, but you should also contribute a lot, right? "
"Me? It's just a fox pretending to be a tiger."
Skyler shook his head, but he didn't take the credit for it. After all, Akainu's behavior can be called "degrading talents without sticking to one pattern", and he deserves praise for doing a good job.
But what Schuyler said. This is called fake Gongji. Forget it, this is called emphasizing talents without avoiding relatives, but it is not worthy of praise if it is done well, and even if it is known by others, it will be left behind.
Even Skyler knows he shouldn't take credit for this.
And Zefa also shook his head with a smile when he heard Skyler's modest words. As a student, he is not only a sharp sword, but also evolved an unbreakable shield by himself.
You can see it clearly and put it right, you are worthy of being your best student.
Zefa looked at the noisy recruits at this time, and felt that it was not so annoying. After all, it was the last day, and they should be relaxed, too nervous is not good.
Skyler's hearing is better. At this time, looking at Ace, Yamato, and Bonnie who took the lead in the "conspiracy", he pricked up his ears and listened, then smiled and said to Zefa:
"Teacher Zefa, it seems that this class will become your traitor."
"oh?"
When Zefa heard the words, he also listened carefully, and caught a few words in his ears. After a little analysis, his smile stopped, and his face gradually darkened.
Ace, Yamato, and the others are actually uniting with other students, saying that if they join forces to defeat him, the chief instructor, will they become the most legendary class in the new barracks.
"It seems that the transformation of the old man in the past two years, the transformation of making Akainu into a villain and the old man into a good person is wrong! These bastards should practice hard!"
As he grew older, Zefa also gradually calmed down, and sometimes outside the boot camp, he behaved like an ordinary grandpa, of course, ignoring his terrifying and sturdy figure.
But his kindness, in exchange for the contempt of troublemakers such as Ace, Yamato, and Bonnie, Zefa decided, he stopped pretending! He is still that black-armed general!
With a gloomy face, Zefa took still vigorous steps towards the team and finally, the trio of Ace, Yamato, and Pony who had been talking happily shut up instantly.
The noisy recruits also fell silent in an instant, and even the sound of breathing was suppressed.
Looking at this group of little bastards who love and hate, Zefa suddenly showed a ferocious smile on his face, and said: "The old man just heard that you want to test whether the old man is as powerful as the rumors ?!"
"Yes!"*3
When the others were silent, the troublemaker trio answered confidently, and Zefa laughed angrily, and said, "That's good! I'll tell you, this old man is indeed not what the rumors say!"
For a while, the trio of Ace, Yamato, Pony, and some people all showed some disappointed expressions, but Zefa didn't stop talking, and continued to say:
"Because the old man is a hundred times stronger than the rumors!"
"Wow~"
As soon as these words came out, countless people showed disbelief. In fact, most people thought that the rumored Zefa was exaggerated. After all, among the older generation, Zefa was not as famous as Warring States and Garp.
Even Zefa doesn't have any outstanding records. Although Sengoku rarely has a record of defeating a big pirate one-on-one, but teaming up with Garp, he can even defeat the flying pirate Golden Lion and Barrett, the descendant of the devil.
Not to mention Garp's single-player record, defeating the sea overlord Rocks in the Valley of the Gods in the old days, and capturing the Pirate King Goldo Roger.
And in the new era, Garp is not unknown. You don’t know that there is an old man who overwhelms the emperor Kaido in the new world and dare not even take a step away from Onijima.
Compared with these two people, Zefa, a general of the older generation, is really much more unknown, so that many recruits think that Zefa is just the mediocre one among the strong among the older generation .
Seeing the appearance of this group of recruits, Zefa put his hand into his pocket, and everyone became nervous for a moment.
They didn't know why, but after Zefa finished saying that, a random move made them very vigilant and nervous.
But Zefa just took out an inhaler, the jiruji took two deep breaths, Zefa held his breath, and when the irritation in his body subsided, he said:
"Anyway, you have a week of theoretical courses, so why not let the old man show you what is the most powerful force in this sea!"
In the past, Zefa would not do this, because a recruit is a recruit, and a student should look like a student, but now he thinks about it, and today is not a course that entertains and educates?
The students should be happy that they can finally see the top power in this sea, and I, the instructor, would be happy to beat up this group of ignorant bastards!
Seeing that Zefa also showed such a side, Skyler smiled happily, although among the recruits this year, there are three amazingly talented recruits, Ace, Yamato and Pony.
But it's just a recruit, Zefa may not be as good as before, Skyler can also see that Zefa is gradually unsuited to fighting in the sparring a few years ago.
But he is still a general!
"Teacher Zefa! I want to be your first opponent!"
Bonnie, who is a physical practitioner, raised her hand high at this moment. After all, she was short, and if she didn't take the lead, she might be drowned in the crowd.
Zefa glanced at Bonnie, who was eager to try, and then at Ace, Yamato, and other recruits who were a little regretful because they were late, and continued to say, without changing his smile:
"Being my first opponent? Who are you old men? I have to fight you one-on-one to win?!"
As soon as these words came out, Skyler was a little unbelievable, and stood up directly, looking at the figure standing in front of the recruits, who looked like an iron tower.
Zefa also turned around at this time, and said to Skyler: "Skyler! Let the medical department reserve a thousand beds for the old man!"
"Gulu~"
Now it's confirmed, Zefa is going to single out a thousand recruits from the elite battalion alone. As Zefa's best disciple, Skyler smiled and replied loudly: "I will order a thousand and one !"
"Hahaha!! You"
Zefa shook his head, then looked back at the group of recruits, reached out and took off the cloak of justice on his body, slowly rolled up the sleeves of his shirt, and said:
"Let's get started! Now is your only chance to hurt this old man!"
Hearing this, the recruits did not dare to make a move, and they kept looking at each other. Ace, Yamato, and Bonnie finished looking at each other and looked at Zefa. Ace said loudly: "Offended! Teacher Zefa! Fire Fist !"
A mass of blazing flames rushed towards Zefa in an instant. At this time, countless blue and cold air burst out from Yamato's body, and he instantly turned into a human and animal shape, and he also said loudly: "Offended! Teacher Zefa! Wushi Bingya!"
Bonnie dodged in one step, and came directly behind Zefa, and he was quite skilled in shaving.
Although she dodged behind Zefa, she didn't want to sneak attack, but the front of Zefa had already occupied the attack space with fire and ice, so Boni who came behind Zefa also said loudly:
"Offended! Teacher Zefa! Taco!"
"Bang! Boom~"
