Chapter 132 Well, Gion can’t be blamed for this

The warship broke through the waves and moved forward at a steady and rapid speed.

The sea breeze is clear and cool, and white seagulls soar in the sky.

The weather should have been comfortable and enjoyable, but Darren, who was sitting on the beach chair, felt uncomfortable and on pins and needles under the scrutinizing gaze of Staff He.

"Ahem... Or maybe this is the first time we have collaborated on a mission at sea, Staff Officer He?"

He lit a cigar, concealed his slightly embarrassed expression, and said with a smile.

Staff Officer He slowly withdrew his gaze from Darren's handsome and strong face, picked up a cup of freshly brewed hot tea, took a sip, narrowed his eyes and smiled:

"Yes, Lieutenant General Darren."

"Speaking of which, I find that the communication between us is indeed a bit lacking."

A sincere smile appeared on Darren's face, and he said at the right time:

"This is indeed my biggest regret. The world has focused their attention on the glory of General Sengoku, Mr. Garp and Teacher Zefa, but I know that without Staff He, the Navy Headquarters would not be able to function at all."

"People say that General Sengoku is the "smart general" in the navy, but how do they understand that it is you, the chief staff officer of this headquarters, who is really quietly making plans for the overall development of the navy behind the scenes?"

"When I was working in Beihai, I had always admired Staff He. It's a pity that since I was transferred to the headquarters, I have been training constantly on missions, so I don't have time to bother you."

Caught off guard by Darren's series of words, Staff Officer He was stunned for a moment, and then became speechless:

"I finally understand why Warring States keeps saying that he wants to transfer you to his staff as his adjutant."

With her experience and vision, she naturally recognized Darren's flattery immediately.

Darren shook his head and said sincerely:

"Commander He, don't think what I'm saying is just for show. I've also been in charge of military affairs in a maritime area."

"The Navy is a large and complex military institution. Combating pirates is naturally the main responsibility of the Navy. The main combat power is indeed important, but this does not mean that staff, logistics and dispatch are insignificant."

"The deployment of warships, the allocation of resources, the supply of arms, and the analysis of wars... These seemingly inconspicuous things are often one of the factors that determine the outcome of a battle."

“I was deeply aware of this when I was working in Beihai.”

"In my opinion, Mr. Garp, Teacher Zefa and General Sengoku are indeed worthy of respect, but you, Staff Officer He... are the real heroes of our navy!"

When these words were spoken, Darren's expression was serious and sincere, speaking from the heart.

"You kid..."

Staff Officer He laughed dumbly and pointed at Darren.

"Okay, okay, don't flatter me, I'm not that guy from the Warring States Period."

Even so, the smile on her face was like a slowly blooming chrysanthemum, and most of the unfamiliarity in her tone had disappeared.

She took a sip of tea and her eyes suddenly lit up.

"This tea is quite good."

This tea is fragrant in the mouth, overflowing with tea fragrance, refreshing and refreshing.

Darren smiled and said:

"The boy knows that Staff Officer He likes to drink tea, so he specially prepared some high-quality tea on the warship."

Staff Officer He was stunned for a moment, and looked at Darren with a flattering look. His grudge against the boy because of Gion also dissipated a bit.

At the same time, she couldn't help but feel a little emotional in her heart.

Darren, this brat, is indeed very charming...

She quietly looked at the Vice Admiral in front of her.

The face with deep features, the piercing dark eyes that seem to hide the stars, the eyebrows like sharp blades, the jawline and Adam's apple that seem to be carefully carved, coupled with this straight and well-fitting military uniform...

This boy's unrestrained, wild and unscrupulous temperament is vividly displayed.

Indulgent yet restrained, wanton yet restrained, two completely different temperaments blend perfectly in his body.

'No wonder Gion is so obsessed with him...'

Staff Officer He sighed in his heart and couldn't help but shake his head secretly.

If it were me twenty or thirty years ago, when I met Darren in the golden age of love, I might have been fascinated by him.

Good image, good temperament, good at coaxing people, able to do things, strong... For a love partner, apart from being a little too carefree, there is really nothing wrong with her.

It was a little scummy, but Officer Tsuru saw... the bouquet of colorful metal flowers in a vase in Gion's bedroom.

It is said that every time this kid goes to a new place, he will look for a local currency, and then use his Devil Fruit power to make a gold foil flower and send it to Gion.

This may not seem like much, but don’t forget that Darren basically goes on a mission every time he goes to a new place. In that dangerous situation where he is close to death, he still remembers this incident. ... is enough to prove his sincerity and concern for Gion.

'Forget it, let the young people solve their own problems...'

Staff Officer He murmured in his heart.

She calmed down her emotions, got to the point, and said seriously:

"Boy Darren, how much do you know about Doflamingo?"

Darren pondered for a moment, frowned, and said slowly:

"To be honest, I know a little bit about Doflamingo, kid."

"This kid's character is paranoid and twisted, full of darkness and bloody desire for destruction, and he is different from the normal nobles of the world. Perhaps because of his childhood experience, he is good at calculations and has deep knowledge."

"This time he did such a crazy thing and took away the gold from the sky. I'm afraid he had an ulterior motive and wanted to use this to threaten the government into making concessions."

Darren's well-founded analysis made Staff He nod secretly and look at him appreciatively.

This kid is really different from others.

Not only is his fist powerful, his brain is also extremely smart.

She could even imagine what ridiculous answers those three disturbing brats would give if she asked Sakaski, Porusalino and Kuzan.

"Well, that's my judgment too."

Staff Officer He nodded.

"This is actually the reason why Warring States asked me to assist you in carrying out this mission."

"After Doflamingo entered the Great Channel from the North Sea, I led warships to attack him several times, but unfortunately all failed."

"but……"

Having said this, a helpless smile flashed across Staff Officer He's face.

"It's a crusade, but it's actually a warning."

For a Tianlong, what the navy can do is indeed extremely limited.

Thinking of this, Staff Officer He looked at Darren with a softer gaze, with a feeling of sympathy and sympathy for each other.

As a marine who also "dealt with" Doflamingo, she knew the difficulty better than anyone else.

Doflamingo's identity is too tricky.

And it is obvious that when it comes to things like Heavenly Gold, especially when it comes to the government's face, there is absolutely no way Wulaoxing will give in.

As a result, the pressure will be put on the navy.

Take action? No, Doflamingo is a Celestial Dragon.

Not taking action? No, the navy must maintain the dignity of the world government, and at the same time, the gold in the sky must not be lost.

In the end, the Navy is not human inside and out.

This task itself is a hot potato.

"Things are not desperate yet, everything will turn around."

At this time, Darren chuckled and said.

His voice was very calm, but it had an inexplicable and convincing air.

Staff Officer He was stunned.

She looked at the Vice Admiral's side face with a confident smile, as if she was infected, and her heart felt inexplicably calm.

'Where does this kid get his confidence...'
