Chapter 278: The Aftermath of the Demise of the Beast Pirates (Please Subscribe)
With Kaido's death, another important turning point for the world's navy and pirates was announced.
From then on, pirates could no longer rely on their positional advantages in the new world to unscrupulously challenge the majesty of the navy. In this battle, the offensive nature displayed by the navy attracted world attention.
People from all forces couldn't believe that even Kaido, one of the Three Emperors, and the other two Three Emperors could not withstand the navy's attack.
In just a few days, the territory of two Three Emperors was penetrated, and the territory of one Three Emperors was completely wiped out.
The power of the navy has been amplified. Even after the navy announced its withdrawal from the New World and everyone left Kaido's territory, all small forces did not dare to occupy Kaido's territory.
But this is only temporary. They will be like sharks that smell blood. After confirming that the navy has completely left, they will pounce on and bite madly.
However, the biggest headache in the world now is not just pirates, but also the World Government and Navy Marshal Sengoku.
Just when the Warring States Period released a message to the outside world, the navy gave up its territory in the New World.
Raleigh and Sakaski also publicized the news of Kaido's death. The two messages came one after the other, and a slightly smarter person could see the secret.
That is, the Warring States Period was released first.
The messages from Raleigh and Sakaski were released later, making Shanks feel that there was something unusual about them.
In addition, the five elder stars of the World Government, who have a keen sense of smell, also saw the difference here.
In the Celestial Dragon Holy Land, Mary Joa convened an emergency meeting.
The five old stars gathered here again for discussion.
They themselves always feel strange. In the past, such discussions could hardly happen even a few times a year. Now, such discussions are held almost every few days, and each time is a very important matter.
Putting aside the doubts in his mind, the five old stars with beards were the first to speak. It seemed that there had been a split within the navy, and the relationship between the generals Raleigh and Sakaski and the Warring States Period was very tense. "
The Five Old Stars are all veterans of political struggles and understand this situation very well.
One party must be dissatisfied with the other party's actions.
Normally, if a general achieves a strategic goal, he will report the information to the Navy Headquarters as soon as possible.
Then the message from the Warring States Period would be later than the message from Raleigh and Sakaski.
But it’s different now”
Wulaoxing, who was holding the demon sword, raised his glasses:
"This is powerful for us. The navy is too threatening and can appropriately cause internal conflicts to weaken its strength."
For Wulaoxing, the current situation is indeed a bit too big to lose.
The navy is different from any previous period. In this period, the navy is unprecedentedly powerful, and even the world government cannot achieve strong control.
"Furthermore, the attitude of the Warring States Period towards the Revolutionary Army was too ambiguous. It's time to change to a Navy Yuanshi."
The short, fat Five Old Star suggested that after this incident happened, he immediately thought of the idea of splitting the naval forces.
In the current navy, the Warring States faction has a close relationship with the Revolutionary Army. The reason why the Revolutionary Army can grow stronger is also because of the relationship between the Warring States Period and Garp.
As for the obedience and aggressiveness shown by Raleigh and Sakaski, they believed that Raleigh and Sakaski would be a sharp blade that stabbed the revolutionary army.
"However, after all, Warring States has been a general and marshal for many years, and his trump card is not just as simple as it seems."
The bearded Five Old Star smiled.
Sengoku's current performance is completely opposite to that of the vast majority of soldiers in the navy. He who was supposed to be a hawk has become a dove and has deviated from his original intention. Now the hawks no longer have his place. "
The five old stars are well aware of the changes in the Warring States Period.
Part of the reason was Sengoku's own shortcomings. He was too emotional and could not face Garp's plea, so he was always reluctant to attack the revolutionary army.
Another part of the reason is precisely because the Five Old Stars and others sitting in this room blindly suppressed the navy, which caused the navy to always be at a disadvantage when facing pirates.
As time went by, the navy was preset to exclude Sengoku from the position of hawk.
Splitting the Navy is a good idea, but the problem is that neither Raleigh nor Sakaski seem to be obedient. "
The five old stars holding the demon sword said with a cold light in their eyes!
'For both of them, support is needed, and at the same time, they need to be beaten hard to make them remember their identities. "
‘Only by being a good servant of God will God show his generosity to the world.
"Send several CPO organizations to find him and tell him that as long as he listens to us, he can take the position of Navy Marshal."
At this moment, the protagonist who was discussed by Wulaoxing and the others was on his way back.
Raleigh took the rare opportunity to move his sun lounger out again, something he hadn't done for a long time.
Sakaski also came over from his warship and sat next to Raleigh.
After a long time, Sakaski suddenly spoke:
Raleigh, don’t you think what Warring States did this time is really wrong?
Raleigh was putting a grape into his mouth. After listening to Sakaski's words, he chewed it twice and felt the sour and sweet taste of the grape on his tongue before he spoke:
Warring States had his own considerations, but he had indeed gone against the direction of naval development. "
Both of them unanimously did not call Seng Guo a marshal. "If I support you, how sure are you?"
Sakaski said seriously.
This matter is very important to him, even regarding his future conduct style in the navy.
Raleigh was not surprised. Everyone could clearly feel that Sengoku was no longer suitable to be a naval master.
There are only four people who can be navy masters.
The three generals were Raleigh, Sakaski, Porusalino and Chief of Staff Kuzan.
Otherwise, no one else is eligible.
Raleigh looked at Sakaski's eyes and said solemnly;
"With the support of Brother Sakaski and me, there is an 80% chance.'
In fact, Raleigh didn't tell the whole story, because he guessed what the World Government was thinking.
The current naval marshal cannot pose a threat to the revolutionary army, so replace him with an obedient marshal who can kill the revolutionary army.
And Kuzan is a character who was eliminated from the beginning.
Porusalino has always been responsible for communication and coordination within the Navy's scientific research force and the World Government. Moreover, he is not willing to be the Navy Marshal. He finds it troublesome.
The only person who can compete for the Navy Master is Sakaski.
Now that he wants to support himself, there is no other opponent.
After hearing Raleigh's words, Sakaski showed a satisfied smile,
It wasn't that he didn't want to compete for the position of marshal, but he found that even if he became marshal, he would not be able to fulfill his goal.
Because he has clearly perceived the upper limit of his ability.
As a general, his strength and planning are sufficient, but if he is a marshal of the navy, it is difficult for him to handle and coordinate the internal affairs of the navy, and his overall strategic vision is not enough. Before Raleigh became famous, his goal had always been the navy. Marshal But when Raleigh stepped up to become the same general as him, no joke, Sakaski saw in Raleigh the hope of change in the navy and change in the world.
This is why Sakaski took the initiative to talk to Raleigh about this matter.
I have already informed the people on my side that if Sengoku refuses to give up his position to you after we return to our headquarters, then we will directly mobilize personnel to take his place. "
Sakaski said forcefully.
In the battle against the pirates, Sengoku disappointed Sakaski many times. Now Sakaski no longer wants Sengoku to stay in that position.
Raleigh shook his head and said:
"Don't do it easily, Brother Sakaski."
We don't need to worry now, someone will create the conditions for us to ascend. "
Raleigh had struck hard at the Revolutionary Army all over the world just for this moment.
In the Warring States Period, Raleigh was also transferred from the first half of the Grand Line because he killed the revolutionary army too hard.
Now he will also be promoted to the position by the Five Old Stars for this reason.
Nothing was out of Raleigh's plan. When Raleigh and his group were approaching Marineland, a World Government warship stopped Raleigh's warship. Members of the CPO organization headed by Raleigh invited Raleigh to the ship for a talk.
Raleigh also listened to their words and boarded the World Government ship without taking anyone with him.
In the huge conference room, only Luo Li and a member of the CPO organization were present.
The members of the CPO organization did not speak, but turned on the live broadcast phone in their hands and left the conference room.
Raleigh felt that this conference room was filled with a large amount of sea-floor stone material, because he felt very uncomfortable.
Before Raleigh could even begin to study the conference room, the scene of the live phone bug had begun.
The person who appears in the picture is none other than the leader of the world government, the Five Old Stars.
This is also the first meeting between Raleigh and Wulaoxing.
The five old stars in the past never regarded Raleigh as an important figure, even if he was an admiral. "Christine Raleigh, the current admiral of the navy, is known as the pirate nightmare. I'm right."
The five old stars with long beards spoke first.
Raleigh nodded slightly and said calmly:
"It's me, Lord Wulaoxing."
The Five Old Stars in the picture were quite satisfied with Raleigh’s attitude. After nodding, the bald Five Old Stars holding the demon sword said:
Not long ago, we were very satisfied with your pursuit of the revolutionary army on the Grand Route. However, the Admiral Warring States recalled you when you were at a loss. Do you have any complaints in your heart? "
Raleigh nodded and pretended to be angry:
I don't know what the headquarters is thinking. Give me some more time, and I can invade the four seas and start clearing away the forces of the revolutionary army. "
"After replacing the current Kuzan, there has been no progress at all in the fight against the revolutionary army."
After the five old stars looked at each other, they were all satisfied.
Of course, they also know that Luo Li's appearance is just a pretense, but in many cases it is a tacit understanding that he is a master of politics and does not reveal anything.
They didn't care whether Raleigh had other thoughts, but they cared whether Raleigh could reach a common opinion with them on this matter.
'We are also very dissatisfied with this. The Warring States Period seems to have some relationship with the Revolutionary Army, so the Navy Marshal may be replaced. "
If it were you, what price would you pay? "
The short, fat five-old star spoke directly about the topic. They were confident enough to push Raleigh to the position of marshal, but they also wanted Raleigh to express his true thoughts.
The five old stars can recommend Raleigh or Sakaski. Now they just want to see how determined Raleigh is to become the marshal of the navy.
"If I can ascend to the position of marshal with the help of Lord Wulaoxing, then from now on all orders in the navy will be subject to Lord Wulaoxing's command."
Raleigh said with a sincere face.
It's just a painting anyway, so there's no need to be hypocritical.
Before every Marine Admiral takes office, he will go to Jogmari to declare his loyalty to the World Government and the Draco.
So Raleigh said in advance, "Very good, we have seen your determination, prepare yourself, we will pave the way for you in Marineland, and leave the rest to you."
After saying that, Wulaoxing chose to end the call.
In fact, Wulaoxing did not have much help in this matter, but could only provide Raleigh with a condition to run for marshal.
Whether he can truly become a naval master actually depends on Luo Li's own performance.
Sakaski and Kuzan both need to be solved by Raleigh himself.
Wulao Xing always just gives people a blank check verbally. Whether he can achieve success is just a chance.
Just like when Sakaski and Kuzan competed for the position of marshal, Wulaoxing only provided Sakaski with a platform for a duel. If Sakaski lost at that time, Wulaoxing could only hold on. Raleigh, who recognized Kuzan as the new marshal of the navy and returned to his own army, stood on the deck and looked in the direction of Marinevando.
"Marshal, are you ready?"
The atmosphere in Marine Fandone was very heated.
Everyone knew that Raleigh and Sakaski were about to return, and they used their 100% enthusiasm to decorate Malinfando.
Because Raleigh and Sakaski displayed the invincible majesty of the Navy, their group also felt the glory of the Navy.
While the entire Malinfando was beaming with joy, only a few people in the Marshal's office had ugly expressions.
Warring States sat on Master Yuan's desk with a sad face."
In addition to Garp who was eating senbei on the sofa, He was also frowning and calculating something.
"Garp, can you stop eating?"
Sengoku was a little depressed when he saw Garp eating senbei."
Warring States, don't worry, isn't it just the position of a naval marshal? Even if I lose it, it doesn't matter. You see, it's easy for me without a job.
Warring States blew out a puff of smoke and sighed softly.
Not everyone can be as heartless as Garp. He started as a soldier and climbed step by step for so many years before he got the position of marshal he wanted, but lost it so easily.
No one would be willing to come.
Sometimes Sengoku envies Garp for being so heartless and not taking anything he loses seriously.
Crane raised his head and said:
"Warring States, did the Five Old Stars and others also agree to let someone else replace you?
Warring States was speechless for a moment, not knowing what to say.
Several figures emerged in his mind one after another, and finally Raleigh's appearance began to slowly enlarge in his mind.
