Chapter 1964 World Recruiting (Part 2)
At the same time, he could clearly feel that Rob Lucci's extremely weak, almost negligible, life force was struggling to keep the flame of life from being completely extinguished.
If Rob Lucci hadn't previously consumed the Titan Fruit, which possessed miraculous effects and granted the user extraordinary vitality, giving him a physique and life force far beyond that of ordinary people, he would probably have already perished at the hands of those five who attacked him together, becoming a cold, stiff corpse.
"Sigh... come to think of it, you've got a pretty tragic and unlucky life, haven't you!"
With a helpless sigh and a shake of his head, Aramaki bent down beside Rob Lucci, grabbed his arms, lifted him up, and strode quickly toward the nearby hospital.
It must be admitted that, based on the astonishing strength displayed in that thrilling and fierce battle, even the arrogant and conceited Satan had no choice but to grit his teeth and reluctantly nod in agreement.
After careful consideration and weighing the pros and cons, taking into account various factors, the remaining four Elders, including Saint Satan, finally reached a consensus.
He invited Ichisho to join the Navy and ordered the Navy to launch a massive global recruitment campaign.
This recruitment will be based solely on individual ability, with each person's assigned position determined by their actual capabilities.
In other words, regardless of a person's background or seniority, as long as they possess sufficient strength, even if they become a high-ranking general, the World Government will not hesitate to recognize and approve them.
The news caused an uproar within the Navy, which was already in turmoil due to the change of leadership!
Many officers expressed their strong dissatisfaction: "How can the World Government act like this? We've endured countless hardships, battling the turbulent seas for most of our lives, finally reaching the rank of vice admiral, only to be told that we can easily obtain this position simply through merit. Has all our previous hard work been for nothing?"
In an instant, countless angry voices filled the entire naval camp.
Soon, a large number of lieutenant generals began to flock to Sengoku, who was still serving as marshal. They made no attempt to hide their resentment and directly raised sharp questions to Sengoku.
It is worth noting that the majority of the vice admirals who came to seek the theory of the Warring States period were of average ability, rather than elite forces in the navy.
Although their abilities varied, they were generally acceptable. While they couldn't compare to truly outstanding elite lieutenant generals, they were still slightly better than ordinary major generals.
After all, in the naval promotion system, apart from admirals who need to ensure absolutely outstanding strength.
Except for certain specific positions, most jobs do not place excessive emphasis on individual abilities.
On the contrary, merit is considered the key factor for promotion.
This has led to a situation where a considerable number of people in the large navy have been promoted to the rank of vice admiral simply because of their years of accumulated experience and seniority.
When they heard that the world government intended to make strength the primary criterion for selecting generals, those renowned and seasoned veterans couldn't help but feel a ripple of emotion deep within their hearts.
After all, such changes will undoubtedly impact their existing status.
Although these veteran admirals dared not easily challenge the authority of the World Government and the awe-inspiring Five Elders, the situation was completely different when the target was the soon-to-retire Fleet Admiral Sengoku.
A group of menacing figures stormed into the marshal's office where Sengoku was located, and began to question this highly respected senior without any politeness.
"This is utterly absurd! Who gave you such arrogant and presumptuous audacity to barge into the Marshal's residence without prior notice?"
Zhan Guo's gaze was icy as he stared intently at the group of furious people before him, his voice deafening, as if it could penetrate walls.
At the same time, an invisible pressure surged out from his body. Although he did not use his full strength and only released a trace of his aura, it was enough for everyone present to feel the terrifying power contained within.
The Warring States period was a truly formidable fighting force, at the level of a great general!
Moreover, he is a seasoned veteran who has fought countless battles!
Although his strength has slightly declined since he became a marshal due to his busy schedule and lack of actual combat experience, his Conqueror's Haki shows no signs of diminishing!
As a representative of justice who reigns supreme over the world.
Sengoku remained firmly seated on the lofty throne of naval admiral.
Therefore, both their mental state and the power of their Conqueror's Haki will inevitably become stronger over time, rather than weaken in the slightest!
Therefore, even a tiny bit of Conqueror's Haki pressing down on those who had barely climbed to the rank of lieutenant general through years of accumulated experience, but whose actual abilities were far from what a lieutenant general should be, was enough to make them feel incredibly heavy, breathless, and even blush and have bloodshot eyes.
Their previous arrogant demeanor vanished instantly, leaving them listless and dispirited.
Only then did everyone realize, as if waking from a dream, where they were: this was clearly the office of the dignified marshal!
Without a doubt, it is the place where the supreme authority of the entire Navy Headquarters is located!
If we truly act in accordance with the rules and regulations, the Marshal has every reason to punish and reprimand everyone present!
Thinking of this, everyone was filled with fear, unease, and deep regret...
"We apologize, Your Excellency Marshal. Our subordinates acted impulsively and lost control. Please forgive us!"
"Fleet Marshal, the World Government is going too far! They dare to openly interfere in our Navy's affairs; it's simply intolerable! Fleet Marshal, you must stand up for our Navy and stand up for us!"
Those who are quick-witted and good at reading people will immediately start looking for excuses and reasons to salvage the situation when they see things are not going well.
They quickly lowered their posture and begged for mercy from the Warring States in a humble and pitiful tone.
Sengoku silently gazed at the group of generals who had followed him for decades, and a sense of helplessness and sigh welled up in his heart.
Most of these people had been personally cultivated and promoted by the Warring States period. It can be said that without the appreciation and important position of the Warring States period, they would probably not have been able to reach their current positions.
