Chapter 617 Glorious Mission

...

"I agree with Ajin!"

Kuzan raised his hand in agreement.

"Although there are a few of the Shichibukai who are less worrying, it is not easy to find such candidates who are both capable and less dangerous. Even so, they are pirates after all and can never really stand on the same front with our navy. Therefore, instead of looking for such unreliable foreign aid, it is better to think of ways to improve the strength of our navy itself."

"That being said, it's not that easy to improve the navy's strength."

Lieutenant General Ahe supported his chin with both hands and spoke in a calm tone.

Zhan Guo took off his glasses and rubbed his eyebrows.

He knew very well that improving the navy's strength was not as simple as recruiting talents and training every talented young person with heart.

The World Government is playing the game of balance. The five old men are not only on guard against pirates, fearing that their rapid development momentum will lead to further deterioration of the situation on the sea, but they are also always on guard against the navy, fearing that the navy will become too powerful and slowly escape the control of the World Government.

After all, the privileges of the Celestial Dragons have long caused dissatisfaction among many people in the Navy, and they have begun to question the "justice" of the Navy."

If it weren't for Red Hair Shanks of the Red Hair Pirates becoming the fifth Pirate King, the World Government would never have agreed to the Navy having a fourth admiral.

As for asking all marines to be like Garp, who has to be capable, willing to work for the navy, and not care about positions and power, what a joke! People can choose not to be promoted, but you have no right to force them to do so. If you can't even guarantee the most basic fairness and justice, how can you lead a good team?

"The World Government orders our navy to find a suitable candidate to replace Crocodile as the Shichibukai as soon as possible."

"The Five Pirate Emperors, the Four Admirals of the Navy, and the Seven Warlords of the Sea, the balance that has been maintained with great difficulty must not be destroyed!"

The Warring States period set the tone.

"In that case, let's find the right person as soon as possible. Does the CP department have a list of candidate pirates? Leave it to me. I'll contact them and see if they are qualified!"

Ajin took the initiative to take it.

It's a good reason to go out.

"not yet."

Sengoku shook his head and thought to himself that even if there was, they wouldn't let you, the admiral who proposed the Six Warlords of the Sea, to take the assessment. Wouldn't that make the candidate list a death list?

"Okay, there's no way to come to a conclusion right now. Let's end today's meeting here. When they get anxious, they'll give us a list of candidates. Then we can arrange for someone to make contact. Or you can put forward better candidates if you have any."

Final summary of the Warring States Period.

"Okay Marshal!"

Kizaru immediately stood up, put on his coat of justice and was about to walk out.

Get off work, get off work!

"Borsalino, your vacation period should be over. It's time to return to Marijoa for garrison."

Warring States reminded.

"What! So fast?"

"Happy vacation time always passes by... faster than the speed of light. Okay, I get it!"

After Kizaru finished speaking, he turned into a ball of golden light and slowly dissipated.

"Report!!"

Suddenly! A general in charge of liaison in the intelligence department rushed in.

"what's going on?"

"Marshal Sengoku, it's an emergency. Judicial Island is under attack by pirates! Leading the attack is none other than the Straw Hat Pirates who have been so popular recently! CP9 Commander Spandam called to request support from the navy!"

"boom!"

"What did you say!"

Zhan Guo slammed the table and stood up suddenly.

"Hey, hey, this is really worrying. I'd better go there!"

Kuzan volunteered.

Devil's Triangle

Bird's Nest Island.

In the dead of night, as the largest "ship" in the world, the exaggerated size of Bird's Nest Island is shocking no matter when you look at it. Covered in thick fog, it looks like a huge monster with its head above the sea.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Several transparent bubbles in the shape of bear paws gently fell on the rooftop of the central castle, and dissipated with a "bang" like a punctured balloon, and several human figures appeared out of thin air in the same place.

"Oh, it's not that bad. Although it has changed a lot and has become a lot bigger, it's not to the point where I can't recognize it."

"Meow!"

Standing on a high place, Gel admired the Bird's Nest Island at night, which had grown larger and had a more futuristic city feel, and could not help but sigh.

"There are many more residents on the island now than there were 20 years ago, so we expanded outward a lot and upgraded it using many of Dr. Vegapunk's advanced technologies."

Big Bear spoke up.

"Wow, this military base looks pretty good!"

Kaido nodded with satisfaction.

"Isn't the flag on this the emblem of the World Government's first member, the Bra Chamber of Commerce?"

Abel asked with a frown when he saw the whale logo on the giant sail.

"Yes, this is the headquarters of the Bra Chamber of Commerce, and it is also our base camp."

Big Bear explained calmly.

"The Bra Chamber of Commerce was founded by Captain Geer."

"what?"

Abel looked at Ger in surprise.

"Okay, don't be so surprised. By the way, if you don't feel comfortable wearing the mask on your face, you don't have to wear it. Don't be afraid that your identity as a Lunaria will cause us trouble. We are not afraid of any trouble!"

"Captain Gul..."

Abel looked touched.

"Also, in order to restore the glory of the Lunaria tribe, I hope you can complete the glorious mission entrusted to you by the organization as soon as possible - find a partner and have children!"

"Ah this! Captain!"

"Hahaha, I'm not kidding you, let's go!"

As Gel said this, he took Weevil, Fate, Big Bear, Kaido and Abel back to his castle.

"Captain Gul!"

"Ahhh! Master Gel!!"

"Hey, hey, long time no see, family, how are you all?"

Met a group of old friends who live on Bird's Nest Island, including Mosan, Fanny, Ginny, Morgans, Kulokas, Tom, etc.

Ger happily walked up to them and gave them hugs one by one.

"Hey, Captain, why didn't you tell me in advance that you were coming back today? How could you come back without a welcome ceremony and a banquet?"

Mo Sang wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and said excitedly.

"I'll go inform everyone right away. Everyone on the island is looking forward to your return soon!"

"That's right! That's right! Master Gel, it's great that you can return safely. I have missed you all the time over the years, Master Gel. When I go back tonight, I will work overtime to publish this great news on the front page of tomorrow's World Economic News! Let everyone on the sea celebrate with me!!"

The birdman Morgans cried loudly, wiping his tears and hugging Gel's thighs tightly while howling.

"Okay, okay, stop talking nonsense, Morganse."

Gel covered the bird's beak with a smile, then looked at the few people and said.

"It's the middle of the night, so there's no need to wake up the others, and there's no need to go through the trouble of having a welcome ceremony. I can just meet with everyone tomorrow. Especially since your children are my peers and I haven't met them yet, I'm really looking forward to it! As for the party, let's wait until everyone else returns."

"Okay Captain."

"Oh yeah, let me introduce you to these two, Kaido and Abel. They are both extremely powerful and will be our companions in the future."

"... "

They hadn't seen each other for a long time, and the few of them chatted for a long time without any intention of letting Geer go back to rest.

"Alright, alright, let's stop here for tonight. I'm so sleepy. Oh, and have someone arrange a room for Kaido and Abel to rest."

"Okay, no problem, Captain."

Kaido and his companion were about to go down to rest following a toy man when Gel suddenly called him and said.

"By the way, Mr. Kai, remember to bring your mace tomorrow. I'll take you to the training ground to teach the young people a lesson! Ever since Xiaoba left, they have been looking forward to a famous teacher for a long time!"

"Captain, when are we leaving for Imperial?"

Speaking of Barrett, Ginny asked.

"Don't worry, I have a plan. I won't let him stay in there for too long."

Ger nodded and replied.

"Oh? Prison break? That sounds interesting. You must include me in the plan! Captain Gill! Ulla hala hala!"

Kaido looked excited when he heard this.
