Chapter 59: Chapter Discussion and Thoughts (Seeking 5-star Review)

Several people in the conference room fell into a brief silence at the same time.

"Hehehe, Ahe, there's finally news about the person you're looking for."

Just then, Brigadier General Monya strode over with a Den Den Mushi in his hand.

As a colleague of Sengoku and He, they had a good relationship in private. In informal occasions, he did not stick to the distinction between military ranks. He smiled cordially and said:

"Oh? Where?"

Lieutenant General He also raised his head and gave a kind smile to this old friend with whom he had known each other for decades.

"He went to my crappy base to redeem the bounties on those pirates. He's still there now. Qiqi just informed me. How about you chat with him?"

Vice Admiral Tsuru didn't waste any words and nodded, taking the Den Den Mushi from Monya's hand.

"Hello, I'm Vice Admiral Tsuru of the headquarters."

"Aunt He, I'm Qiqi."

"I know, Xiao Qiqi, have you confirmed your identity?"

"Well, this one hasn't come yet. He himself doesn't seem to know anything about the God of Death, but he brought 57 pirate heads to the base to exchange for bounties, which surprised us all. I've checked, and all 57 of them are pirate captains with bounties ranging from a few million Baileys to to million Baileys. A large number of them are pirate groups from the East China Sea, and they are all pirate groups that disappeared one after another after the rumors of the God of Death appeared recently, so I guess their identities should not be wrong."

Qiqi expressed her analysis and basis.

Sakaski, who was sitting next to him, nodded. Although he still had that stinky face as if others owed him hundreds of millions, there was still some admiration in his eyes.

Even he had heard about the recent deeds of this pirate hunter who was in the limelight in the East China Sea. The other party's method of eliminating all pirates was very much to his liking. Sakaski had already made up his mind that if the other party really joined the navy, he must find an opportunity to transfer such talents to his own team so that they could play their role to the greatest extent.

"Okay, I get it, Chichi. You did a great job. Give him the Den Den Mushi and tell him that someone from the Navy Headquarters wants to talk to him."

After some encouragement, Vice Admiral Tsuru decided to communicate in person.

"Ok."

Seeing the female navy coming towards him with a Den Den Mushi, Gel was not surprised. He had even overheard who was on the other side of the Den Den Mushi. They were about thirty meters apart, and anyone with sharp ears could hear it, not to mention that he had Observation Haki.

"Hello, Mr. Hunter, our navy leader wants to talk to you."

"Oh? Do you have to alert the headquarters bosses just to exchange a few hundred million in bounties? It seems like you navy guys are having a hard time."

Gel didn't refuse. He calmly took the Den Den Mushi and teased.

The ridicule from Den Den Mushi made several people in the conference hall look different. The navy had no economic source of its own and relied on the military budget allocated by the World Government every year. This was also a means for the World Government to control the navy, the largest force at sea. Such a large organization as the navy required huge amounts of money just to maintain normal operations, so the navy was indeed short of money, but it was not to the point that it could not even take out hundreds of millions in bounties, not to mention that the money was also paid by the World Government.

"Hello!"

"Hello! Mr. Hunter, I am Tsuru, Vice Admiral of the Marine Headquarters and Chief of the Marine General Staff."

Although he had guessed it, when he actually heard the voice reveal his identity, Gel couldn't help but feel excited: Vice Admiral Tsuru, the Chief of the Navy's Staff!

Traveling through the world of One Piece, besides enjoying the wonderful scenery, isn't the most interesting thing to collide with the various heroes of this world? Now that the dream has come true, how can I not be excited to have the opportunity to chat with this navy boss who is both powerful and intelligent.

"Hello, Vice Admiral Tsuru! It's a pleasure to speak to you."

Gel said politely that compared to a scoundrel like Garp who couldn't distinguish between good and evil and had no clear stance, Gel still respected old men like Tsuru, Sengoku and Zephyr who had worked hard for the navy all their lives.

Several people in the conference room could tell from his voice that Gel was very young and were a little surprised.

The people present had high standards. The ability to kill 20 to 30 million Bailey pirates was not enough to surprise them. It was just that through previous analysis, they felt that someone who hated pirates so much should be an older person with a certain past and experience. They didn't expect that the other party was actually a young man, which was a bit unexpected.

"Hehe, Your Excellency, are you going to introduce yourself?"

Vice Admiral Tsuru smiled faintly. Based on just one sentence, she could tell that although Gel had no hostility towards the navy, he was clearly on guard against it.

"Haha, sorry, I forgot because I was so happy. My name is Ge Er. I'm just a good man without an identity. I'm currently an adventurer traveling around."

Gel replied calmly that he did not choose to conceal the information deliberately. The navy could find out this information as long as they were willing to ask a few small town residents. It would be impossible to conceal it, so it would be better to be honest.

"Adventurer? This profession is rare."

Sengoku stroked his chin and thought, maybe they could start from this aspect and separate these people from pirates. Going out to sea for adventure or looking for treasure does not mean they have to be pirates. As long as the navy and the world government are willing to recognize the profession of adventurer, as long as they don't fly the pirate flag, don't do bad things and don't claim to be pirates, those who have no criminal record can be given another identity choice. Maybe there are not many people who are purely for adventure and treasure hunting, but now pirates are powerful, and the more they can be weakened, the better.

The thoughtful Zhan Guo's eyes gradually brightened.

The World Government has not issued a maritime ban prohibiting everyone from leaving the country or island where they live, so going out to sea for exploration or treasure hunting is not actually illegal. But since when, anyone who goes out to sea, whether for murder or travel, must proudly hang the pirate flag and claim to be a pirate. Pirates regard the bounty as an official honor, and they compete with each other for the amount of the bounty, and even deliberately do more bad things to increase the bounty. Now this morbid atmosphere is about to sweep the entire ocean. It is conceivable how many innocent ordinary people will die in this catastrophe.

The more Zhan Guo thought about it, the angrier he became:

Maybe it's really like Sakaski said, he should have disobeyed the orders of the World Government and killed that bastard Roger with one knife!

However, Marshal Kong is good at maintaining the status quo but not at making progress. It is obviously unrealistic to ask him to disobey the orders of the World Government. Zhan Guo could not help but wonder if he would dare to disobey the orders of the World Government if he was the marshal at that time. After some analysis, he felt that he could not resist as his life was firmly in the hands of others.

A penny can make a hero fall, but I didn't expect that what could tie down the navy, this fierce tiger, was actually a pile of paper.
