Chapter 600 Luffy Got Into Trouble Again
"Sir, Luffy got into trouble again."
A few days later, when the Zhanye Detachment was still waiting for the handover of the warship's hull, Nurkic, who had received the report on naval affairs in the past week, reported to Skyler with some embarrassment.
Skyler, who was eating the ice cream that the Charlotte family brought back from Ice Cream Island, put down the big cup in his hand, pressed his temple with a cold hand, and then said:
"Let me guess, have you entered the new world? Did you have a conflict with the garrison on Fishman Island? Or did you cause trouble after entering the new world?
According to their itinerary, even if they have come to the new world, they can't go very far. They can't afford to provoke them at the headquarters, and Abel and the others can't let Luffy go crazy, so it should be other islands.
But there are not many islands around, right? Either the deserted former G-2 branch, or Punk Hazard Island, or the GN-5 stationed by Smog, tell me, where did he get into trouble? "
Hearing Skyler's analysis, Nurkic opened his mouth, feeling in his heart that he is indeed a family, but his own chief also underestimated Luffy's ability to cause trouble, so he nodded and shook his head again , said:
"Didn't Luffy get into trouble somewhere? As you just said, he messed with Fishman Island, the former G-2 branch, and Punk Hazard Island.
And in order to restrict Luffy, the headquarters also asked Smoker to go to the original G-2 branch to stop Luffy, but they seem to have all gone to Punk Hazard Island now.
The headquarters is considering whether to send reinforcements. After all, some accidents seem to have happened on Pang Island. "
"Hey~ I provoked everything again, as expected of Luffy."
Skyler also twitched the corners of her mouth, but the incident caused by Lu Fei did not exceed her imagination, so she regained her relaxed demeanor, picked up the cup again, and ate the ice cream.
Nurkic was also speechless when he saw the appearance of his own official, but after thinking about it, what kind of family did Luffy come from?
Luffy caused this trouble, compared to Garp, Dorag and Skyler, it is just drizzle. Compared with his elders, Luffy's recent behavior can be said to be docile.
Eating ice cream, Skyler seemed to think of something again, and asked, "By the way, where are the Roger Pirates and the Whitebeard Pirates? Did you follow Luffy?"
"No, when Luffy and the others met the Golden Lion, they had already acted independently. After all, if they stayed by Luffy's side, it would only make Luffy more targeted. They should also understand."
Nurkic shook his head. In fact, he himself had analyzed before that the old men of the Roger Pirates and the remnants of Whitebeard could not follow Luffy all the time.
After all, although Luffy was already a supernova two years ago, his age and the time of his debut, he is destined to be just a "newcomer".
Even if this newcomer has done a lot of things, there are still many veteran pirates or forces who will not pay attention to the Straw Hats, because the Straw Hats have no foundation.
The influence is limited to only a few people on board, no matter how much trouble there is, it will be limited to a small area.
But if the old guys of the Roger Pirates and the remnants of the Whitebeard Pirates really became allies of the Straw Hats, it would be different.
After all, although these two pirate groups have "destroyed", the foundation, contacts, and reputation influence accumulated by the family over the past few decades are still very terrifying.
If these two pirate groups really follow the Straw Hats into the new world, there is no doubt that Luffy will be directly named the Four Emperors.
And at that time, wherever Luffy goes, there will be enemies everywhere.
After all, the emperor of the sea needs to have his own territory. Even a red-haired person took a large piece of territory symbolically back then.
But Luffy's strength has not yet reached the level of the Four Emperors. At that time, when everyone thinks that he is going to fight for territory and become the emperor, they will probably do their best to stop him.
Luffy can't handle this situation, so the best outcome is that everyone is disappointed in him and thinks he is a young man who doesn't deserve his name.
But this is the best result. If it is serious, even the team may be damaged, downsized, or even disintegrated.
Based on the experience of the Roger Pirates and the Whitebeard Pirates, it is impossible not to understand this. Therefore, all they have to do is let the forces of the new world see their determination to support Luffy.
But he won't really become his ally, but will continue to hide in the dark, so that those who have already paid attention to Luffy will keep paying attention to Luffy, but at the same time dare not do it easily.
It's like aiming a gun, but not pulling the trigger.
Without the Roger Pirates and the Whitebeard Pirates, Luffy's influence and threat would not be able to reach the level of the emperor of the sea. The real big fish would not overly embarrass Luffy and the Straw Hats.
So after seeing Luffy and his gang in the Chambord Islands incident, this incident happened alone, but it was in Nurkic's prediction.
It's just that Nurkic also knows that the Roger Pirates have been silent for more than 20 years, and it is absolutely impossible for them to really leave just to show their faces.
After all, it only takes another five or six years before the world government may completely abandon the supervision of the Roger Pirates, because if there is no crime for 30 years, the possibility of committing another crime is extremely slim.
In addition, the group of Roger Pirates are not young people. The decline in strength caused by aging and the reduction of crew members one by one. In another five or six years, perhaps the Roger Pirates will really have no threat at all. up.
But this group of old guys gave up the little time left, and they did not hesitate to be wanted again. There must be unknown reasons behind it.
As for what the reason is, Nurkic doesn't know, but he thinks that the reason can be found in Luffy in the end.
Because Luffy is so special. Of course, special does not refer to his origin, but refers to him as an individual.
Luffy is the grandson of Garp. For a long time, he stayed in the simple villages and towns of the East China Sea. After contacting the red-haired Shanks, he was brought by Skyler to the Zanye detachment.
In those few years, Luffy's longing for pirates has been completely washed away. Even with the example of his brother Ace, he should become a navy as a matter of course.
But he didn't. Instead, after two years of training in the headquarters, he left the navy on the eve of officially becoming a navy.
What puzzled Nurkic even more was that he knew that Luffy's departure was permitted by Skyler, and Garp did not stop him.
The two naval heroes agreed with Luffy leaving the navy, and even the Marshal of the Warring States Period, Mr. Zefa and others at that time did not express dissatisfaction with this matter.
This may indicate that Luffy had to leave the navy for reasons, or was unable to stay in the navy.
As for what the reason was, Nurkic didn't want to understand it, but it was also definitely due to the individual of Luffy, and it couldn't be because of his background.
Even if Luffy is the son of the leader of the Revolutionary Army, Drago, there is no possibility of becoming a navy, but Skyler has already won it for him.
And with Garp and Skyler keeping him, Roger's son is now a lieutenant general, so how could Luffy not be able to become a navy because of his status?
The real reason, the reason of that Luffy individual, is the reason why he was allowed to leave the Navy, and at the same time, he was able to attract the support of the old Roger Pirates and the remnants of the Whitebeard Pirates.
But Nurkic has also known Luffy for a long time, and he really can't find the reason.
Therefore, Nurkic looked at Skyler and wanted to take this opportunity to ask. He was silent for a while and put the report in his hand behind his back before asking hesitantly:
"Sir, I know that maybe the high-level navy has made other arrangements, but... I really want to know why Luffy has come to this point, can he come to this point?"
Hearing this, Skyler stopped her movements. She looked at Nurkic and asked, "What do you mean?"
Nurkic hesitated even more when he saw that his own official wanted to get away with it. After all, Skyler would hardly hide it from him, but Skyler was unwilling to say anything about it. He shouldn't have asked, but
"Sir, I don't believe that Luffy left the Navy because of missions or arrangements. There must be other reasons?"
Hearing Nurkic's questioning, Skyler ate the last scoop of ice cream, then put down the glass and asked, "Why do you think so?"
"With all due respect, if Luffy really left the navy for the sake of the navy, he shouldn't have made any contribution, let alone a substantial contribution, he didn't even take any action.
Of course, if a report is made, of course, Luffy can list many "contributions" along the way, but you and I both understand that it is just a coincidence.
What Luffy has been doing is what he wants to do, not what he really does for the mission.
I really want to know what is the reason that made you and the navy let go. If you don't want to answer, you can tell me directly.
I won't say that I want to know the ins and outs of this matter in order to better cooperate with you and the high-level decision. It's just my personal curiosity, so please be blunt. "
Nurkic looked around, leaned down slightly and said to Skyler, Skyler began to think about it, and after a while, she said, "Actually, there is nothing I can't tell you about this matter."
Hearing this, Nurkic's eyes lit up a little. Although the conversation this time completely exceeded the code of conduct for an adjutant, he was just curious about things he couldn't figure out.
Skyler frowned, straightened his thoughts, and then said: "Actually, even I'm not sure whether Luffy really needs to leave the Navy.
His father hoped so, and the choice was also decided by Luffy himself.
And Luffy's decision may be in the notes and manuscripts that Drago left in Marin Fando. The headquarters moved last year, so you should have handled those things too, right? "
Nurkic nodded. He was responsible for Skyler's move, and Skyler also made it clear that he could check the things left by Dorag.
After reading those notes and manuscripts, Nurkic understood why Dorag decided to leave the Navy, but he himself would not be affected because he had his own firm goals.
But Nurkic frowned quickly. The notes and manuscripts left by Dorag had little effect on him, but if it was the former Luffy.
However, this can only make Skyler agree to Luffy's choice, and at most add another Garp, but Mr. Zefa, Marshal of the Warring States, why did they agree?
Schuyler touched the condensed water on the table with his hand, and said: "From the things left by Drago, we have deduced several pieces of information. Nika, Joyboy, and fruits that have never been controlled by the world government .”
Hearing this, Nurkic, who was in deep thought, frowned tightly. After a while, his brows gradually loosened. Although he was still very puzzled, he still said with emotion:
"He is Mr. Dorag's son, is there really such a coincidence?"
"Who knows?"
Skyler shrugged, then picked up the cup on the table, handed it to Nurkic, and said, "Go and get me another cup."
"Yes, sir!"
Nurkic saluted, then took the cup, and tried to leave, but stopped again, and asked, "Sir, do you need me to investigate?"
"No need, I can't find anything out of the investigation. I commissioned someone to dig it, but so far there is only one slightly useful information, that is, the rubber fruit has a history of more than 800 years, not only the fruit, but also the rubber fruit. The naming of the fruit has been determined since the establishment of the world government, but..."
Skyler rubbed his left temple, and said: "The world government recorded the first discovery of rubber and rubber trees, but it was four hundred years ago.
Rubber and rubber trees were only discovered on Sky Island 400 years ago, but 800 years ago, there were already records and official naming of rubber fruits. "
Hearing this, the doubts in Nurkic's eyes deepened, but he still tentatively said: "Maybe the last person with rubber fruit ability was from Sky Island? Or...
In fact, the rubber trees and rubber discovered by the world government are only named after the rubber fruit? "
"I don't know!"
Skyler sighed, then looked at Nurkic who was standing still thinking, and said, "I'm still waiting for ice cream!"
"Yes, sir!"
Nurkic came back to his senses and hurried away. After a while, he came back with a cup of ice cream with mixed flavors and put it on the table beside Skyler.
Skyler nodded, continued to eat ice cream, took two bites, paused slightly, and waited for the impact from the teeth to the brain to disappear.
Taking time to look at Nurkic, he found that he still looked puzzled, so he said: "By the way, I just said not to investigate this matter, I was serious.
Everything related to these matters is extremely sensitive. There is also a prison on the Red Earth Continent, where some former CP agents are detained, and a few of them know Nika, Joey Boy and Rubber Fruit.
Of course, none of their information was worth much, but they died anyway, not by my order. "
Hearing this, Nurkic nodded, and withdrew the idea of calling his father to ask about it. Even if he wanted to ask, he had to ask face to face and privately.
Or go directly to browse through his father's collection of books. My father has collected countless books over the years, and there may be some information.
Seeing that Nurkic understood what he meant, Skyler didn't want to delve into this issue, but asked, "By the way, have you checked all those ships?"
"Well, everything has been checked, and the test can be completed today, and it can be taken away tomorrow. But that. Totland confiscated a penny and gave us 20 warships directly. I am afraid that someone from the World Government will Suspect."
Hearing Nurkic's worries, Skyler waved his hand and said, "It's okay, let them doubt it. After all, the Navy really doesn't have money to pay. If you dare to question it, let them allocate funds quickly!"
Nurkic nodded and said, "Yes! Sir! Do you need me to communicate with Katakuri and make some reminders? Or make a complaint at the World Conference?"
"Well, you can arrange it, but the list of this year's world conference has not yet been released, and there is no movement at the Qiwuhai Conference, so I don't know what the hell is thinking over there.
Maybe this time the World Conference is not going to hold the Qiwuhai Conference, maybe, isn't it also promoting the abolition of the Qiwuhai system in the whole life? Perhaps the world government is also considering it.
After all, the current sea seems to really not need Qiwuhai, and the Qiwuhai system has also deviated from the original intention of the original establishment.
Originally, it was intended to use the Qibuhai to stabilize the structure of the sea, but now the sea has no stable structure to speak of, and the Qibuhai system has instead become a tool for the Qibuhai to make profits.
Baki's logistics company, Kuja's raiding group, Haku's great channel transfer station service point, including Katakuri's shipyard, are actually able to obtain so many benefits with the help of the Shichibukai system.
Perhaps the world government felt too uncomfortable seeing them making money, so they wanted to ban them directly.
Especially if Baki’s logistics company and Katakuri’s shipyard are banned and controlled by the world government, how much cost can you think of saving the world government? How much benefit? "
After Skyler finished speaking, Nurkic nodded and said, "I really haven't tried to think from this perspective. When you say that, I feel like Shichibukai is a group of vampires."
"It's all like this. If the impact is not too great, and without relying on the navy, the world government cannot eliminate the impact of the abolition of the Shichibukai system, it is estimated that we have already received the wind.
The expenditure of the world government is increasing every year, and now it is facing the problem of increasing military expenditures for the navy. Even if this year's world conference proposes to request more gold from the alliance countries, it will only be relieved for a while.
After all, the extra money paid by the franchise countries needs to be subsidized to the navy. We can't suspend our navy's plan in order to save money in this turbulent time full of opportunities, right? "
Skyler sees these things very clearly, because unlike Nurkic, she naturally thinks about things as a navy.
She is more used to thinking of the world government as a company, and the navy is the most profitable but also the most expensive department.
The navy cannot make profits without burning money, and the world government cannot lack the profits brought by the navy, so it can only continue to burn money and increase cost input in exchange for more profits from the navy.
The navy has also done a good job, not only digesting the original market, but even taking the initiative to open up the market to develop more customer groups, but if it wants to profit from new markets and new customers, it has to continue to burn money .
Even if at the end of each year, the navy's investment and profit are at the same level, and it cannot bring more benefits to the world government, the world government still has to pinch its nose and continue to invest money.
After all, you can't give away or break the big plate you have already got, can you?
Moreover, if the world government really dares to cut down the navy, the most expensive department, then this department will become an independent competitor in minutes.
And the world government that cuts off the navy will greatly shrink its market value, and its market influence will also decline rapidly. At that time, it may not be able to do the navy, which was originally its own department.
Even if the navy's operating costs are not cut, just a slight reduction will usher in dissatisfaction and protests from the navy.
Therefore, without being able to reduce the increasing investment, the world government can only continue to find foreign funds to supply the navy.
For example, let the shareholders increase capital, the world government also plans to do so, and let the joining countries that are the main source of the world government's funds increase the heavenly gold, but the money will eventually be burned by the navy.
Therefore, relying on this step alone is not enough, and at this time, the cooperative enterprise that cooperates with oneself, but also profits from itself, becomes a breakthrough in the solution.
There are many benefits for a large company to acquire a small company with business cooperation. First, the cost of the original business cooperation will be reduced, and at the same time, it can use the company's profits to increase its own income.
Of course, the world government is not a real enterprise after all, and it is not subject to the supervision of the market, so it can directly take it for itself instead of acquiring it.
Based on the analysis of Qibuhai, the world government may have already had the idea of banning Qiwuhai, especially today when Qiwuhai's profit methods are gradually improving and maturing.
The reason why I haven't done it yet is that I can't find a suitable reason, timing, and at the same time can't find the right manpower.
Coincidentally, at this time, the new Admiral Fujitora of the Navy proposed a proposal to abolish the Shichibukai system, and the world government will definitely pay attention to it.
After all, agreeing with Fujitora can be said to be the respect and trust for the new admiral, and there is a reason for this. At the same time, the strength of the admiral and the troops he can mobilize have become the manpower to carry out this matter.
The only thing missing now is the timing, and this timing may be at the World Conference in the near future. At the World Conference, Fujitora will definitely bring up his proposal again.
At this time, once the world government passes Fujitora's proposal, and hand over this important task to Fujitora and the navy, then the world government can sit back and wait for the fruits of victory.
Of course, it is difficult to actually implement this matter, but it is not difficult, and it has nothing to do with the world government.
After all, the executor is the navy, and if it is not done well, it is also a disadvantage of the navy. If it is really not good, then the world government has a reason to reduce the navy's expenditure, and the navy has no way to protest.
This is also the reason why the world government has no idea of abolishing the Qiwuhai system, and rumors spread, because this matter must be proposed by the navy, implemented by the navy, and at the same time held responsible by the navy.
Skyler has seen this kind of thing a lot in his previous life. If it is done well, it is the leader who deserves the credit, and it is the boss who creates benefits and benefits. If it is not done well, the employees are responsible.
Skyler also believed that Fujitora knew this, but he still did it.
If he didn't even dare to shoulder this responsibility, then he wouldn't choose to become an admiral. How about staying in Zhan Ye Detachment? After all, the Zhanye detachment never drove him away.
