Chapter 576 Enclosure Movement
Chapter 576 Enclosure Movement
"How many, how do you say?"
Marigio and Naosu looked at the reports that had just been faxed in their hands, and looked at the other five elders. The others did not answer, but exchanged looks with each other.
If these reports were sent by Sengoku, they would tear them up without hesitation, and even let Sora hold Sengoku accountable. After all, this was already an over-the-level report.
If it is sent by air, then they can follow the normal procedures, which will take at least two weeks. In addition to the various mitigation connections during the execution, it will take a month or two, which is considered standard efficiency.
Moreover, this is still with the green light all the way. If something happens, such as the world government's review department reviewing the handover process, or there are problems with the handover personnel, then the extension time will not be fixed.
But it happened that the person who submitted these reports today was Skylar Gray, a Vice Admiral who was not qualified to report to them at all.
But this Lieutenant General is Skylar Gray!This forced them to pay attention to this matter, but they did not want the navy's top brass to think that they would be afraid of a small lieutenant general like Skylar.
After all, they are the Five Old Stars!The apparent top decision-maker of the world government!Is it possible to be afraid of a little Vice Admiral?
And they really are not afraid of Skyler, they are afraid of the man sitting on the throne of the void.
It's just... that adult clearly showed his favoritism towards Skyler, and thinking of this, several people looked at the blind Wulaoxing, wanting to hear his opinion.
After all, he was blinded just because he glanced at that adult. For so many years, as colleagues, they have never asked about this matter, that is, what exactly he saw.
However, several people also believed that this blind colleague definitely saw something he shouldn't have seen. After all, since that day, this colleague rarely spoke about Skyler's affairs.
The occasional speeches tended to be in favor of Skyler.
Although he was blind, the blind old star still rolled his cloudy and white eyes, apparently sensing the unkind glances of several people around him.
Even though many years have passed, he still remembers the last scene before he lost his sight. However, he will not reveal even half of it. After all... it was too shocking.
He reached out and knocked on the table, and then said: "Since the Navy has selected a new marshal as planned, there is no need to delay it any longer.
Let's do this... let Sakaski give a plan. He was promoted to marshal, Kuzan left the navy, and the position of admiral must be filled in sync with his tenure.
What do you think?Is there anything else you need to add? "
Hearing what the blind old star said, the other five old stars were a little disappointed. They still couldn't get any useful information out of him, but... they supported Skyler as always.
However, they also knew that this colleague was still trying hard to prevent the Navy from misunderstanding that they were afraid of Skylar, and let Akainu make plans and select general candidates just to buy time.
As long as the time is delayed beyond the normal procedure time, then... at least the Navy will not be sure.
"I feel that as the current marshal, Sengoku must not step down directly. After all, he is still young and powerful, only in his seventies, and can continue to contribute to the world government.
Therefore... I asked Akainu to draw up a plan for arrangements after Sengoku left office, and... I heard that Garp also wanted to retire, so I simply made a plan for the two of them together.
Let’s sort these out first and then make the next plan. By the way, the Warring States Period cannot interfere in this matter!Then, let Zeng Guo write a review. After all, it was he who allowed his subordinates to report beyond the level. "
At this time, Naosu's old star also gave his own thoughts, or in other words, each of them could actually think of these, it was just a matter of who said it.
After the two of them finished speaking, the remaining three people nodded. Even the old star holding the sword did not object as usual. After all, the things he objected to... were not initiated by Skyler.
But this time the report was in Schuyler's name and was faxed from Skyler's phone bug.
He's not afraid of Skyler, but that doesn't mean he'll be stupid enough to go against him.
Several people looked at each other and nodded, and the blond old star said: "Then I will notify Sora and ask him to sort out the contents of our meeting, and then go to Marineland to convey our opinions."
"Best."
The five old stars all want to delay the time, so the old man Seng Guo must not be involved in the plan part. After all, with Seng Guo's character, he must have made several filings.
If it were communicated directly to Sengoku and asked him to distribute tasks, Sengoku might just submit his own plan, so it would have to be distributed in person.
As a result, Sora came to Marinefando, and came to the medical department that he had never been to since the battle with the Red Earl. Sora's mood was a bit complicated.
After all, that was his last battle before resigning as marshal, and he lost. Sengoku was much smarter and didn't take the risk and let Skyler handle it.
If I had known earlier, I would have asked Garp and Sengoku to arrest that damn Redfield directly?
It wasn't until he arrived at the ward where Akainu was located that Sora stopped thinking. He opened the door and walked in. Sora saw Akainu sitting on the bed with many bandages on his body, holding a large tome in his hand and reading. .
Regarding Akainu's performance, Sora showed a satisfied smile. Although learning may represent his own shortcomings, it also proves that Akainu is trying to get better, which is a good thing.
Moreover, when Akainu first showed his prowess, he was still a marshal of the navy, so he also knew that Akainu was not a foolhardy person. He just seemed a bit awkward among his colleagues, among a group of extremely bad colleagues. Just silly.
"Commander Kong?!"
Sora suddenly pushed open the door and walked in. It was obviously not what Akainu expected. He quickly closed the book and was about to stand up and salute. However, Sora, who walked from the door to Akainu in two steps, reached out and pressed his shoulder. , said:
"You don't have to get up. If you delay your body's recovery by saluting me, then I will be a sinner of the navy. You don't want me to become a sinner, right?"
Sora said with a smile. Akainu wanted to say that his body was not that bad, but in the end he did not say it. Instead, he pointed to the chair aside and said: "Commander Sora, sit down."
"Ah."
Kong pulled up a chair and sat down, and said, "I have to tell you the truth. I'm not here to visit your body."
Hearing this, Akainu was not disappointed, and even nodded as a matter of course. After all, Sora had no such obligation. Sora must have come here for official duties, otherwise...who would go to visit the injured?
Sora didn't talk nonsense, but said: "Your appointment has been confirmed by Wulaoxing, but there are some procedures that need to be completed, and... Wulaoxing needs you to analyze the future plan of the navy first, and Give a plan.
At the same time, you have to make arrangements for the two guys, Sengoku and Garp, who are about to retire. After all, the Navy still needs them to continue to shine.
Finally, there is the issue of the vacant general seat. This old man is not worried. After all, the information about Yisheng and Aramaki was given to me before the Warring States Period. Both of them have the ability to become generals.
On the Yisheng side, with the endorsement of Dr. Vegapunk and Skyler, things should go smoothly. On the Aramaki side, you should also have an internal response plan.
So the focus is on the future planning of the Navy and the arrangements after Sengoku and Garp retire. Do you have any ideas? "
Sora is obviously hinting to Akainu that he is willing to give some suggestions or approve Akainu's ideas first. After all, if we first discuss a plan that can pass Sora, then there will not be too much resistance to the Five Old Stars. Big.
After all, Kong has been the commander-in-chief of the entire army for so many years. Although he hasn't done much official work, he has a lot of contacts with the Five Old Stars. It can be said that he has understood the way of thinking of the Five Old Stars.
After hearing the two questions, Akainu frowned tightly. Seeing this, Sora asked: "Do you have any ideas to speak boldly, or can I give you some direction first?"
Sora thought Akainu had never thought about this issue before, but the reality was that Akainu remembered the topics he and Skyler had talked about on the day the referendum ended.
Lieutenant General Skyler!What a blessed general!
"Relocate the naval headquarters from Marineland to the New World, and use the deterrent power of the headquarters to reduce the cost of management and control of the new world.
At the same time, Malinfando can be transformed into a new barracks and hold a world recruitment. Taking advantage of the remaining power of the attack on the Four Emperors, the navy can absorb more neutral combat forces or potential talents such as Yisheng and Aramaki. "
Akainu first proposed an idea, Kong frowned when he heard the words, thinking about the feasibility, then touched the beard on his chin and asked: "It is impossible for all the world's great conscripts to be strong like Yisheng or Aramaki.
There will also be a lot of potential talents as you said, and these talents need to be cultivated before they can be used by the navy, but it is impossible for Zefa to control them all by himself. Zefa has already reached his limit after doubling the number of new recruits. "
Regarding this problem, Akainu smiled, because Lieutenant General Skyler had already given him a solution, and this solution could also complete the second plan.
"Teacher Zefa is definitely too busy on his own, but Marshal Warring States and Lieutenant General Garp also have the ability to train elite soldiers. Neither Skyler nor Ace were trained by Teacher Zefa alone.
Therefore, multiple recruit training camps can be set up, and the scores of candidates can be used as instructor performance to motivate instructors and make them more enthusiastically involved in the education of naval recruits! "
Sora was a little surprised that Akainu could give such an answer, and said, "I can't tell, Akainu, it seems that you are really suitable to be a navy marshal."
Akainu showed a naive smile on his serious face, and then said: "Commander Kong, I must tell the truth. I did not think of this. It was Lieutenant General Skylar who told me this."
"Skyler..."
Sora began to touch the beard on his chin again. Like Kizaru, Crane, and Sengoku, they would always be involuntarily doubtful when faced with a seemingly feasible plan proposed by Skyler.
However, Kong quickly dispelled his doubts. Not only was this plan indeed feasible after thinking about it, but there was also a more important reason.
In the end, this plan is to deceive Sengoku and Garp. Skyler's other abilities may not be so reassuring, but... in terms of fighting and deceiving people, Skylar can't think of anyone who can compete with Garp and Crane. Keller is stronger.
If Skyler came up with this plan with the idea of deceiving people, then there is no doubt about the feasibility of this plan.
After all, he had heard Zefa and the three generals report on all aspects of the War on Top. It seemed that the War on Top was planned and launched by Sengoku, but it was actually planned and implemented by Skyler in order to harm Whitebeard and the Whitebeard Pirates. .
In this aspect, she is trustworthy!Kong also had a smile on his face and said, "This is a good direction. You can express your plan in writing.
By the way, your world conscription... needs to be related to the countries that join the world government. The purpose of the world conscription is to strengthen the navy. To strengthen the navy, it is to clear more sea areas.
After clearing more sea areas, the biggest beneficiaries will be the countries joining the World Government. After all, this will help them greatly reduce costs and risks in the field of cross-sea trade.
In order to maintain stability, they need to spend an extra amount of money every year to maintain naval operations. After amortization and comparison with the profits, they will accept it.
Then there is the relocation of the Navy Headquarters. This part is actually not difficult. The key point is the location of the new headquarters. It should not be too far away from Mariejoia. Do you understand what I mean by the sense of security of the Celestial Dragons?
......"
Sora sorted out the draft of the plan for Akainu, divided the levels of the planning parts, and sorted out the pain points that each plan would solve and the benefits it would bring.
These are things that Akainu, who has not yet officially become a marshal, lacks, and even if he becomes a marshal, given his character, it may be difficult for him to take the initiative to learn these.
Therefore, as a senior, Sora naturally doesn't mind teaching Akainu well. After all, the better Akainu is at being a marshal of the navy, the more worry-free he will be as the commander-in-chief of the entire army, right?
However, it was impossible for Sora to guide Akainu to finish writing and revising the entire plan. After all, this time the Five Old Stars were not even willing to let Sengoku intervene, let alone him.
Therefore, he could only give Akainu a framework. Before the first report, he would go through it himself. If there were any problems, he would not submit them to the Five Old Stars, but would go back and modify them, so that it would go more smoothly.
In addition, civilian service cannot be learned through teaching. Unlike force, civilian service does not have absolute skills, but more about experience. Only by constantly trying out the pace of the decision-maker can the decision-maker be satisfied.
But satisfying the decision-maker does not mean it is good. Maybe if another decision-maker is replaced, he will be completely rejected. This is normal. Therefore, most marshals will become a thorn in the eyes of the Five Old Stars in the early days of their tenure.
It's not because they are really thorny, it's just because they fail to keep pace with the decision-maker, the Five Old Stars. This is why the marshal must practice absolute justice in the end.
Because only in this way can we understand the requirements and ideas of the Five Old Stars and keep up with them.
Sora did a great job in this regard, so during that darkest period, he was still able to secure his position as marshal, and could even be promoted to commander-in-chief of the entire army after retirement.
Warring States also learned it, but he could never betray his "justice that reigns in the world", so he and the Five Old Stars were incompatible with each other, seemingly incompatible with each other, and even contradicted each other more than once.
It's just that his achievements are too dazzling, and he can even be said to be the most dazzling one in the past hundred years, which makes the Five Old Stars find no reason to attack.
And Akainu... is still young.
Being young means having more time and more opportunities to try and make mistakes. If you try, you will understand.Or replace him with someone who can understand and be the new marshal.
One day later, Sora returned to Marigio. After all, this was the longest time he could delay. If it was any longer, the Five Old Stars would probably ask him if he had gone to the private navy.
Although he did do it, he didn't want to explain it.
It is not unusually difficult for Akainu to complete these plans independently. After all, as a person who abides by the rules, he understands what it means to seek political power in his position.
He had never been a marshal, so before the election, he had not thought about what he would do after becoming a marshal, nor had he learned how to be a good marshal.
And he wanted to find Skyler, the original maker of the plan, to advise him, but... Skyler had already ended his vacation and took his detachment to the new world.
However, Skyler did not guard the G-5 branch. After all, she chose to lead the Zhanye detachment to station in the G-5 branch. The only reason was that the G-5 branch was the naval branch closest to the true new world.
And now...the original G-1 to G-5 have become the branch farthest from the New World in the second half of the Great Channel. With the characteristics of the Zhanye detachment, how can they continue to stay?
After all, Skyler was not the base commander of the G-5 branch. There was once a young man who might have become the base commander of the G-5 branch, but he was personally killed by the Zhanye detachment.
At this time, Skyler had already consciously rushed to Dressrosa. After all, she had a hunch that another naval base would be built near here, so she came to inspect it one step ahead.
Moreover, Luo was invited to visit his relatives this time. When he captured Doflamingo, it was considered official duty, and Luo couldn't meet with Rosinand, so it was postponed for some time.
On a street in Dressrosa, Skyler frowned and said to Rocinante, who was leading the way with a smile: "Don't you feel like you're being watched?"
Rocinante saw that Skyler was so keen, scratched his head and said: "I also investigated before, it is Princess Violet, she seems to be spying on me intentionally.
I think this may be due to her vigilance and resistance to me after she ran out of the palace many times before and was captured by me. I have already told King Liku that I also believe that they will not do anything detrimental to the navy. "
Skyler nodded and had an impression in her mind. She remembered Violet because... she looked very similar to Robin two years later.
Luo, who was silent as Ace put his arm around him, frowned slightly. He looked at Ace who didn't feel anything unusual at all, and Skyler and Rosinandi who clearly felt something unusual but didn't think there was anything strange about it. ...
He suddenly had the idea that the reason why so many generals in the Navy were single was not because they, like himself, gave up everything else for justice, but because they simply didn't realize it.
And Luo felt that he had a clear consciousness. He did it because of his just cause, and Zefa's case made him understand that until justice clears this sea area, it will be difficult for the navy to have a happy family.
As a new-generation major general, and one who, like Skyler, can be said to be a generational genius, Luo has a lot of fans in the navy, but he gave up on his own initiative.
But looking at Rosinandi's appearance now, it seems that he is unaware of it, and may not have thought about such a thing at all.
Shaking his head, Luo felt that there was something unhealthy in the navy. For example, Ace was obsessed with him. Although there were Yamato and Pony in the team, he was clinging to a big man like himself. It was really confusing!
In the palace of Dressrosa, Violet frowned as she looked at the mysterious man mixed with a group of naval admirals. After all, she had not known the identity of the mysterious man before.
But her brows soon relaxed. After all, it was very possible that the mysterious man was a marine. Otherwise, what had he been doing in Dressrosa for so many years?
Be a superhero?But he never showed his face, but for some reason, she was a little disappointed when she thought that the mysterious man protected this land to fulfill his obligations as a navy.
How great would it be if that mysterious man was an unknown hero who was not understood by the world, and took the initiative to stay away from the crowd and silently protect Dressrosa?
After all, Violet, who often monitors mysterious people these days, has seen many mysterious people crack down on petty thefts disguised as goblins, and prevent many tragedies of lovers killing each other.
As someone who knows every move of the mysterious man, she can definitely understand him, but...
Seeing the mysterious man leading the navy into another dance hall, Violet habitually took back her abilities, although she could probably guess that there was actually the mysterious man's secret base there.
But she would subconsciously resist a place like that, and at the same time... it would be better not to peek into the mysterious person's privacy.
Violet sat up from her bed, then stood up and walked to the closet. She opened the closet and found a lot of new clothes in it, all in the flamenco style.
But after thinking about it for a long time, she finally didn't try it on.
And after Rosinandi led Skyler and others into the ballroom, neither Skyler, Luo, Ace, Bonny, nor Smoker who followed him, nor Guina and Dasqi who were chatting. any reaction.
Only Yamato looked at the dancers who were performing with a big smile. He was the only one among the group who fit in with the style of the dance hall.
But she didn't look for long before she was pulled into the passage by Bonny.
"What are you doing?! She obviously wants to..."
"Ahem! We are the navy!"
Bonny quickly said with a straight face, and Yamato scratched her head. She remembered that when she was a child, everyone looked at dancers like this. Couldn't the navy do the same?Teacher Zefa has never taught it.
But it didn't take long before she was led by Boni and followed Rocinante into his studio.
The studio was not big, but Luo smiled. After all, he spent his time as a recruit here with Mr. Corazon.
There weren't many stools in the studio, so everyone except Skyler chose to stand. Although there was one chair left, no one sat on it.
Rosindi found a chart, pulled the chair used by Luo before to the middle of the studio, spread the chart out, and said, "This is the location for the 27 bases I have recently planned."
Skyler nodded, looked at Smoker, who seemed a little reserved when he came into contact with the Night King's troops for the first time, and said, "Smoger, you applied to me to come to the new world yourself, do you choose one?"
Smoker walked to the table, looked at it, and then said with some embarrassment: "Lieutenant General Skyler, I want to choose to station between the g-1 to g-5 branches to intercept the pirates arriving in the new world."
"G-1 is probably gone. After all, it will probably become the new naval headquarters, and G-2 will probably be abandoned. After all, Vice Admiral Gumir wants to call back the first half of the Great Waterway, and with the headquarters here, there is no need to go to G-5. -[-] cruises.
The remaining three bases..."
Skyler looked at Smoker and asked, "How about G-5?"
"Huh? This..."
