Chapter 40: Marine Headquarters Colonel Gion
Chapter 40 Marine Headquarters Colonel Gion
Marine Headquarters, Marinford
“Knock, knock, knock!”
There was a knock on the door of the Navy Admiral’s office. Sengoku, who was sitting on the desk, handed a document in his hand to the goat’s mouth next to him, and then motioned for the other party to come in.
“Excuse me, Marshal Sengoku, this is my mission report this time, and on the way back, I happened to encounter a pirate group, so I wiped them out by the way.
It is also because of this reason that the return time is one day later than the expected time.
As for the matter of deviating from the voyage to pursue the pirate group, it is entirely my personal opinion, so I hope that if the marshal wants to punish, please punish me alone, and don’t implicate other people on the ship.”
The person who entered the marshal’s office was a heroic female naval general. The other party had beautiful black hair and a long sword on her waist. Not only did she have an extremely proud bust, but also a pair of long legs that most male compatriots could not ignore.
If Wood were here at this moment, he would definitely find that the person who appeared in front of Zhan Guo at this moment was Gion, who had not been seen for half a year.
Today, Gion is wearing a white naval officer uniform and a cloak with "Justice" written on his back.
When Gion graduated, his rank was only "sergeant", and sergeants were not qualified to wear a naval cloak, let alone meet the naval marshal directly.
Obviously, after half a year, unlike Wood who was assigned to the frontier to watch the pond, Gion, who was located in the Navy Headquarters, has been in a state of step-by-step promotion in the past six months.
After taking a look at the task report submitted by Gion, Zhan Guo also nodded from time to time. Then, when he saw that the naval regiment that Gion defeated was actually the pirates with more than 100 million that had recently caused the Navy a lot of headaches, Zhan Guo showed a satisfied smile at the corner of his mouth.
"Thank you for your hard work this time, Colonel Gion. Regarding your mission, I have also received a thank-you letter from that kingdom. They are very satisfied with your mission completion this time.
As for the one-day delay in returning, it is also because of reasons. Fighting against vicious pirate groups is also to implement the justice of the navy, so I will not punish you more this time.
But next time if you encounter a similar situation, it is better to use Den Den Mushi to report to the Navy Headquarters. Don't be like some old bastards who completely ignore the discipline of the navy!"
With the relationship between Sengoku and Vice Admiral Tsuru, it is impossible for him not to know Gion. Since Gion graduated from the Naval Academy, Sengoku has been quite satisfied with Gion's performance.
Compared to most navy officers, Gion, as a woman, acts more delicately and knows how to think more before acting, perfectly inheriting the advantages of the Navy Staff Officer Tsuru.
For example, when a certain ally of the World Government had civil strife this time, Gion handled it quite well. Not only did he handle the civil strife perfectly, which brought a lot of reputation to the Navy, but he also handled the ending perfectly, leaving no hidden dangers.
It is not difficult to suppress the civil strife. Even with the combat power of the Navy Headquarters, it can be done by sending a general-level navy to do it. However, only Gion can handle the follow-up so perfectly.
As for the old bastard mentioned by Sengoku, Gion knew that he was talking about the hero of the Navy, Vice Admiral Garp, without saying much.
According to what Gion knew from Crane, every time Vice Admiral Garp went out to sea to fight pirates, it was like going on vacation.
Obviously, pirates with weak strength can hang out outside for a long time before returning to the Navy Headquarters. It is normal to return to the ship one or two days late.
There was even a time when Garp did not return to the Navy Headquarters for several months. In the end, he received an emergency order from Marshal Sengoku who could no longer bear it, and he came back unwillingly.
As a hero of the navy, Garp is the faith and role model of all the navy, so Sengoku often gets angry because of Garp's overly casual behavior.
And he also believes that Garp's lazy behavior will affect the atmosphere of the entire navy.
Let alone others, Sengoku found that among the several new stars of the navy that he was optimistic about, some of them had been led astray by Garp's atmosphere.
Yellow Monkey Borsalino, currently serving as a vice admiral of the navy, is a natural "Pink Fruit" ability user, proficient in observation Haki and Armament Haki, and the devil fruit is a powerful fruit that ranks among the natural series.
However, there is one thing that makes Sengoku quite a headache, that is, this guy is extremely afraid of trouble, and he does as much work as he can get paid.
Every day, he works to punch in and get off work on time, and he has a weak sense of belonging to the navy and his own sense of justice.
In addition to Kizaru, another new star of the navy favored by Sengoku has similar problems. Sengoku even believes that Garp has an unshirkable responsibility for the newcomer who has high hopes for him to become what he is now!
Because compared to the "Kizaru" who has grown crooked, Aoki followed Garp for a period of time after graduation.
Compared to Kizaru, Aoki has a strong sense of belonging to the navy, and he also has his own justice.
It's just that such a highly anticipated newcomer, after following Garp for a period of time, such a good guy, now only thinks about how to lie down all day long, and even calls it "lazy justice".
After this incident, Sengoku decided that any promising newcomers in the navy must not be put to Garp for training in the future.
The old guy refused to be promoted to admiral of the navy just to be able to leave the navy headquarters at will.
In the past, it could be said that it was for the convenience of chasing Roger, but now Roger has been dead for several years, and Garp is still unwilling to serve as the admiral, just for the convenience of being lazy!
"You have completed your mission very well this time, and you have worked hard to suppress the internal strife of the royal family. This time I will grant you a few days of vacation, so take a good rest."
Looking at the heroic Gion in front of him, Sengoku was more and more satisfied. If the navy had more elites like Gion, who were not only powerful but also smooth in dealing with things, then he would be much easier to be the admiral of the navy.
When Sora was the Admiral of the Navy, he and Tsuru were responsible for all matters except for the Navy. Now that he is the Admiral of the Navy, he is the one who handles these matters...
"Marshal Sengoku, the task of suppressing the civil unrest this time is actually quite easy. We just met this pirate group on the way, so it didn't take much effort, so I don't need a vacation...
Well, at least I don't need a vacation. If Marshal Sengoku has any tasks that can be performed by a small number of people, you can give it to me to perform."
Gion originally wanted to say that she didn't need to rest, but she suddenly realized that she couldn't represent everyone.
After following her subordinates and running around with her for so many days, they really needed a rest, so Gion changed her words temporarily and said that only she didn't need to rest.
