Chapter 505 One Sentence, Let Pluto Fall to the Ground

During the New Year, the Zhanye Detachment had to return to the headquarters of Marin Fando. After all, the Zhanye Detachment was open all year round last year. Even during the Chinese New Year, they stayed in the New World.

Theoretically, the Zanye Detachment will take turns during the New Year this year, but under normal circumstances, if the Zanye Detachment applies to continue stationing and cruising, it is impossible for the headquarters to refuse.

But this year, the headquarters rejected the Zanye detachment's application to station in the New World, and ordered the Zanye detachment to take a vacation. Considering that the members have not had a long vacation for two consecutive years, Skyler is also embarrassed to argue with the headquarters.

And she can also imagine that the headquarters does not allow her to be stationed in the New World, and wants her to take a vacation with Marin Fando. There must be something that is inconvenient to notify through phone bugs or public announcements.

Therefore, on January 1, 1520 in the lunar calendar, the Zanye detachment ended the New World cruise mission and returned to Marin Vandor. Nurkic was in charge of sorting out the docking and reporting, and Skyler came directly to the headquarters building. .

Whether it's Warring States or Crane, their style of doing things, in Skyler's opinion, is a bit too contrived, although they know that there is a high probability that they have something to come to him, so they let him come back.

However, Skyler felt that if he didn't take the initiative to ask, with the personalities of the two of them, he would probably only reveal some of it to himself in the middle and late period of the vacation, and then let himself who was curious to actively explore.

Rather than wasting time like this and being coaxed like a child, Skyler would rather go to the door directly, be a so-called "ignorant" person, and ask the whole thing clearly.

After greeting many generals along the way, Skyler also came outside the marshal's office, although the headquarters has a complete rotation system for the branches and detachments stationed abroad.

But for Marin Fanduo headquarters, holidays are very rare, after all. They all live in Marin Fanduo, and they can go home and reunite with their families every day. What kind of holiday do you want?

To put it bluntly, it just doesn't pay much attention to the rest and physical and mental health of civilian staff.

Many generals who are in charge of civil affairs, or generals who can only be in charge of civilian affairs now, have protested this point, and some generals have even protested more than once.

That general is one of the three major generals today, General Huang Yuan.

It's just that for Huang Yuan's suggestions, the headquarters generally encourages speeches and never listens. The reason why they encourage it is because speaking is probably the most diligent thing Huang Yuan will do in the headquarters.

If he is not even allowed to speak, or this general will really do nothing.

When he came to the Marshal's Office of the Warring States Period, Skyler knocked on the door, and came here for official business. Skyler would still follow some etiquette, but it didn't mean that Skyler didn't show etiquette when it came to private matters.

Rather, sometimes, etiquette is redundant. For strangers, etiquette is the best tool to bring the two parties closer, but for people who are already familiar or close, etiquette will only make people feel alienated.

The degree in the middle needs to be mastered slowly, and the degree of treatment for everyone will be different. Some people do not like red tape by nature, and some people pay attention to this. Therefore, different attitudes must be adopted when dealing with different people.

Of course Skyler understands this kind of thing, otherwise she would have lived in vain for decades, but sometimes she doesn't want to follow such rules, after all, sometimes, following rules is a tiring and uncomfortable thing.

But today Skyler was obviously in a good mood. After hearing the knock on the door, Zhan Guo also nodded and said, "Lieutenant General Skyler, please come in."

The door of the marshal's office is rarely closed, so the Warring States period can directly see Skyler standing at the door and knocking on the door. As for why the door is still open and knocking, this is also a "degree".

The last time the two met was at the graduation ceremony in October last year, after all, today is the first day of the new year.

"Marshal of the Warring States Period."

Skyler saluted and said, Sengoku nodded. If he followed the most standard etiquette, he would also need to salute, but he did not do so.

Because everyone agrees that the boss does not need to salute his subordinates. Of course, not all people will follow the "rules" established by the convention, but will choose to abide by the rules in black and white.

For example, Akainu, in most cases, even if it is just a third-class soldier who salutes him, he will choose to pay back whenever he is free, but if he has a mission, he will not pay back, even if someone who is also a general salutes him. salute.

Because this is also stipulated in the article.

Warring States saw Skyler come to him as soon as he returned to the headquarters, and instantly understood what Skyler meant. He motioned Skyler to sit down, thought for a while, and said:

"That kid Luffy has disappeared for more than a year, do you know about this?"

Hearing that, Skyler raised her eyebrows. After Luffy left the headquarters, she really didn't deliberately inquire about Luffy's news, and it was impossible for the headquarters to report to Skyler regularly because of a recruit who left the headquarters.

Therefore, Skyler was a little surprised to hear that Luffy had disappeared for more than a year. Of course, her mood swings were not great, after all, it was only more than a year.

Warring States saw that Skyler was not too excited, and secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Sure enough, Skyler seemed to catch Garp, and Garp was not excited after learning that Luffy was "missing".

Just leave a sentence "As expected of my grandson, even the navy can't find it hahaha~" It can be said that the brain circuits of the Mengchi family are special. For them, it is commonplace for a minor child to disappear. Little things are the same.

And the purpose of Warring States to find Skyler was not to talk about this matter, but the two hadn't seen each other for a long time, and if they issued tasks as soon as they met, it would seem that their boss was too mean.

After all, Skyler returned to the headquarters in the name of a vacation. Even if there are some business matters that are inconvenient to disclose for her to come back, the superficial work must be done well.

Seeing that Skyler didn't respond much, Sengoku also said casually: "After he left the headquarters and went to the Chambord Islands, the navy never found him again."

After hearing the place name Chambord Islands, Skyler narrowed his eyes behind the sunglasses, but he didn't say anything, just nodded, and said, "Luffy's running away is probably not the purpose of your looking for me, right?"

"Run away."

Sengoku wanted to complain about Skyler's words, but in the end he just twitched the corner of his mouth a few times and then relaxed. After all, arguing about these details with Garp, his peer, is already very tasteless.

If he and Schuyler argue about these details, Warring States feels that it will not be guaranteed at the end of the festival.

Stroking his beard, Sengoku said: "Indeed, the purpose of bringing you back is to talk to you about Blackbeard Tiki and the Whitebeard Pirates."

Hearing this, Schuyler raised his eyebrows curiously. Seeing this, Warring States continued, "Not long ago, we spotted Tiqi, and he has returned to the first half of the great channel."

Skyler frowned. Sure enough, Tiki was not so easy to catch. Even though she had been on a high-intensity cruise for more than a year, the monthly rest stipulated by the Warring States Period provided too many opportunities for others. .

"where is he?"

Skyler asked, Sengoku thought for a while, and then said: "This old man can tell you where Tiki is, but... this matter is of great importance, and this old man hopes that you will not intervene too much."

"If you want to make a fuss about Titch. It's not easy for me. I propose to capture Blackbeard Titch directly. As for the New World, the Ye Zhan Detachment is ready for the next expedition."

Hearing Skyler's words, Sengoku shook his head and said, "You are always in such a hurry, do you think the old man just wants to attack the Whitebeard Pirates?"

Having said that, Sengoku is very satisfied with Skyler's performance. On the one hand, it is because of her fearless attitude. Her attitude is what the Navy needs, and it is also the reason why Sengoku agreed with Skyler to station in the New World.

What the headquarters wants is the sharp sword of Skyler and the Zanye Detachment, ready to penetrate the depths of the pirates in the new world at any time. After so many years, Skyler is still sharp, which is very satisfying.

On the other hand, it was Sengoku who saw it. Skyler might have guessed what he wanted to do. Crane City might not be able to see through his purpose of Warring States quickly, and Skyler's performance was even better.

The Skyler in front of me is a personality, strength, and vision that are no less than Karp and Drago. Another talent of the Monchi family, although she also replicated all the shortcomings of the Monchi family, but Bika That old guy is much better.

After hearing the words of the Warring States period, Skyler said impatiently: "You just want to learn from Marshal Kong back then and hold a grand ceremony for your retirement.

Start a war, completely defeat Whitebeard, who has been an opponent for many years, and then retire with a victorious attitude, am I right? Marshal of the Warring States Period? "

In an instant, Sengoku, who was full of expectations and affection for Skyler, suddenly collapsed, and then he remembered that Skyler had not only inherited Garp's traits.

Crane's advantages and disadvantages, the general in front of me who has entered the Mesozoic Era has also learned a lot, and has the attributes of the Mengqi family who are not stingy, and he doesn't save any face when speaking.

But Sengoku didn't refute it, because Skyler was right, he just wanted to retire in style, and before retiring, sending away his old opponent, Whitebeard, was his expectation.

Seeing that Zhan Guo accepted his speech with a gesture of acquiescence, Skyler shook his head, stood up, and said: "Marshal Zhan Guo, think about it carefully, is what Marshal Kong did right?

The execution of Roger started the era of great pirates, and now we are still cleaning up this mess every year, you."

"enough!"

Skyler's aggressiveness somewhat angered Warring States, he looked at Skyler and said, "This old man is the marshal!"

"You'll regret it! Sengoku!"

For some reason, Skyler instinctively followed up with this sentence. For a moment, both of them fell into silence. Finally, Skyler added: "Marshal."

Yes, Skyler felt that it was wrong to call Sengoku by his first name. After all, Sengoku was her boss and her predecessor, so at least he had to be called "Marshal Sengoku".

After completing the etiquette, Skyler left the marshal's office directly. She had nothing more to say to Zhan Guo. Zhan Guo acted like a stubborn old man, and as he said, he was the marshal.

When Sengoku saw Skyler leaving, he could only sulk. He was very annoyed by Skyler's attitude just now. That attitude was similar to Akainu's, but it was even worse.

It's so ridiculous that such a person who is more reckless than a red dog is actually the leader of the Mesozoic Dove School!

Moreover, the failure to win Skyler's support made Sengoku very uncomfortable. After all, in his opinion, Skyler should be a person who is more active in eliminating pirates than anyone else, and he should support him. right.

But in fact, Schuyler did show her enthusiasm for eliminating pirates. Her justice and firmness are beyond doubt, but Sengoku never expected that Schuyler would be so opposed to this matter because she saw through his mind.

Warring States does not deny that he has selfish intentions, and he does not deny that Skyler is right. When Roger was executed, the era of great pirates started, and until now, twenty-two years later, the navy has continued to trouble.

But does Whitebeard have the ability to start another era with as much influence as the era of the Great Pirate? Warring States did not agree, Whitebeard is very strong, but his influence is not as good as that of Roger, who had the title of One Piece back then.

Moreover, the current navy is not comparable to the navy of the past. To put it bluntly, the navy of the past was multifaceted and poor. If you want to make a big difference, you can only rely on the personal strength of the generals.

But it is different now. Not only is the navy richer, but there are more people than before. Compared with more than 20 years ago, the navy has retained the combat power of veterans like him and Karp.

There are three generals, Red Dog, Yellow Monkey, and Aokiji, as well as Skyler, the leading general of the Mesozoic generation who is not inferior to the general, and new generation generals such as Luo and Ace.

As well as a variety of warships and weapons with excellent performance, as well as new weapons from the scientific combat unit in charge of the yellow monkey, the confidence of the Warring States Period is unprecedentedly high.

Not to mention fighting a white beard pirate group, even if there is another emperor, Sengoku feels that the navy is capable of coping and winning.

And the Warring States really wants to retreat from the front line. After all, being a marshal is not as good as he thought back then. He thinks that after becoming a marshal, he can completely reverse the decline of the navy.

Then, dispatch the brand-new navy to conquer the second half of the great channel that the navy has never touched, but the fact is that he cannot completely reverse it.

He can only continue to add bricks and tiles to the temple of the navy, making the navy "better" little by little, but more than ten years have passed, and the navy still hasn't really entered the new world.

Even though many generals in the navy were ready to conquer the new world, various facts and conditions still failed to allow Warring States to achieve that step.

Therefore, using my last time and experience to deal with a mountain for the juniors of the Navy is already the ultimate that the Warring States Period can achieve now.

Although there is his selfishness in it, but... wouldn't such a result be good?

It's okay for a crane to keep hinting against this matter, but Skyler directly opposed his plan in front of him, and said inside and out that he did it for himself

Sitting in his seat, Zhan Guo took off his glasses and kept rubbing his eyelids, tired, so tired.

After Skyler left the marshal's office, he went to Crane's staff office, and the two quickly understood what the other meant. They didn't quite agree with Sengoku launching a war against the Whitebeard Pirates.

It's just that both parties also know the reason why the other party disagrees, and the embarrassing thing is that they are not the same.

The reason why Crane disagreed was that he felt that the idea of ​​the Warring States Period did not take into account the interests of the entire navy. After all, declaring war on the Whitebeard Pirates represented not only the Navy and the Whitebeard Pirates.

It also represents the Navy's attitude towards pirates. As long as the Navy calls out to fight the Whitebeard Pirates, then the Four Emperors, who have never been united in the past, will also consider forming a group at this time.

After all, no pirate group can withstand the bombing of the navy and the world government, not even the pirate group led by their emperors.

They did not form a group before, not because they were not worried, but doing so was not a good thing for the navy and the world government, and the pay may be greater than the benefit.

But once the navy and the world government are determined, then the alliance of the emperor may rarely appear.

And even if you don't talk about that far, let's talk about what is in front of you. The Navy may win the battle with the Whitebeard Pirates, but the effort will definitely not be much higher than the gain, which is completely opposite to Crane's philosophy.

As for Skyler, the reason why she opposed the Sengoku idea was that she believed that the Navy did not need to use this method to win at all.

As long as he is willing to face the Warring States Period and tear up the agreement of the year, then Skyler will not mind leading troops into the waters of the Whitebeard Pirates. Even if he is fighting in the territory of Whitebeard, Skyler is also confident.

She is the person in the navy who knows Whitebeard's personal status best, and this can be regarded as the few foresight she has left.

When the original book was on the top of the war, when Whitebeard was holding the filial sword in his body, through Marco's mouth, he described Whitebeard's weakness, and the combat power he showed, it is hard to convincingly call it the world. The strongest man.

Even Akainu said "Even if you can't escape the fate of getting old", it can be said that when everyone is expecting the world's strongest man to show his power again, it has fulfilled Akainu's reputation.

When Ace was about to be executed, Whitebeard was old, so old that he couldn't even release the domineering arrogance to stun the executioner. If it wasn't for Luffy who stunned the audience with the last domineering color

It can be said that the current Whitebeard's comprehensive strength has actually fallen out of the strongest echelon, but his past, his reputation, and his occasional explosions make it difficult for people to believe that he is old.

If it's just a one-hit fight, Whitebeard is still the strongest person in the world, but if it's a fight or even a war, he's already powerless to fight.

Skyler is not joking, she is really ready for another expedition, but just face Whitebeard, she has been looking forward to it for a long time.

But Zhan Guo refused, perhaps not only because of his selfishness, but Skyler was still very disappointed.

After talking with Crane, Skyler also left the headquarters building.

On the morning of the second day of the new year, a report was delivered to Zhan Guo's desk. The moment he saw the report, Zhan Guo stood up and went straight to He's office regardless of the bewilderment of the navy delivering the letter.

Pushing the door open, Zhan Guo took the report and said to He: "Little Crane, Skyler went to Chambord Islands today, shouldn't it be."

"Do you think she will find time to go to the Drum Kingdom and slaughter Blackbeard Tiki?"

He smiled and asked, Zhan Guo nodded, but He shook his head and said: "If she really wants to kill Tiqi, even if she directly leads the warship to the Magnetic Drum Kingdom to kill Blackbeard today, can you stop her?

Do you think that with her character, she would spend so much trouble, going to the Drum Kingdom alone, just to avoid your eyeliner? "

The dissatisfaction and sarcasm in Crane's words can be heard in the Warring States Period, but if you think about it carefully, it is really the case. If Skyler intends to disobey orders and kill Tiqi, how soon can he lead the detachment directly?

After all, if you really think about it, everyone in the Zhanye Detachment is enough to go to a court-martial, misbehaving and disobeying orders. The Zhanye Detachment doesn't mind doing this for their chief, and Skyler has the ability to save them.

Therefore, there is no saying that Schuyler set off alone to capture Blackbeard Titch in order not to drag down her detachment. Perhaps it was simply that she wanted to go to the Chambord Islands.

"What is she going to Chambord Islands for?"

Zhan Guo frowned and said puzzledly, He looked at him and asked, "Did you tell her about Lu Fei?"

Hearing this, Zhan Guo scratched his face, turned around and left without saying a word, after all, it was too embarrassing!

It's fine if you can't control your subordinates, but you actually showed distrust of your subordinates, if it spreads.

In fact, Skyler did exactly what Crane said, she didn't mean to go to Blackbeard Tiki, her destination was the Chambord Islands.

She didn't even have any interest in making a move along the way, and despite the pirates in the Chambord Islands running away, she just came to Island No. 13 slowly.

"Shaki's Rip-off Bar."

Skyler looked at the old signboard, and then walked in. At this morning, there were not many people drinking.

Xia Qi was cleaning the bar, and when she saw Skyler coming, she just nodded and didn't panic, and she didn't even mean to entertain.

After all, she runs a bar, and Skyler, who doesn't drink, is not her client.

In the bar, there was only one person drinking at this time, and that was Rayleigh, who was already full of silver hair. Rayleigh was sitting at the bar, with two bottles of 25-year-old whiskey in front of him, two glasses, one for wine, and one for wine. Fill with water.

Skyler walked up to Rayleigh and sat down. The drunk Rayleigh ignored Skyler who was sitting down. Skyler was silent for a while and said:

"Have you got money to buy wine?"

"?!!!"

"Boom~"

Rayleigh fell straight off the high stool.
