days in the world of pirates

"This is my resignation."

Warring States held a written resignation letter in his hand and handed it to Wulaoxing. It said that the world is so big, I want to go...

Ahem, it’s a joke, it contains the reasons why Sengoku chose to resign as marshal of the navy, etc.

After all, in this world, many places in the Warring States Period have already been visited.

Rather than traveling around the world, Sengoku wanted to find a place to be lazy, drink some tea and eat some senbei...

It’s best that those two old bastards don’t grab it!

He put his hands in his pockets and his posture was a little handsome: "This war with the Whitebeard Pirates did not achieve a complete victory. I bear a great responsibility, including the incident in Impel Down City. I also bear an unshirkable responsibility.

.

The Navy no longer needs the leadership of an outdated figure like me, so I have decided to resign from the position of Marshal of the Navy."

When Warring States said this, he suddenly took all the problems on himself.

He also really felt that he was too old to continue leading the navy, so he wanted to abdicate and leave it to young people.

Of course there are other reasons as well.

For example, for the two guys who ran out of the sixth floor of the Impel City, the Warring States Period had to issue a wanted order, otherwise any one of these two guys could easily destroy a country.

But the World Government, or the Five Old Stars to be precise, issued an order not to allow the news to be released.

The purpose is to prevent the world government from losing face!

Even the news of the invasion of Impel City was blocked, even though prisoners from Impel City appeared in the live broadcast at the beginning of the war.

But later there were no reports on this, it was the power of the world government at work.

This made Seng Guo feel a little tired. He was loyal to the navy and the government, but he was not a fool, nor was he incapable of emotion.

The face of the government is more important than the safety of the people. This is what Mawson said about the world government that is actually rotten to the core.

The five old stars each looked at each other. Even though they had received some news, they could still see the incredulity in each other's eyes. The navy had developed very rapidly in the hands of the Warring States Period in recent years.

Moreover, during the Warring States Period, the navy was also kept in good order, and various outstanding talents were frequently produced in the navy.

Some mistakes in the war cannot erase his achievements, nor are they enough for him to step down as a naval marshal responsible for this.

What's more, it was the navy that ultimately won this war!

But it seems that Warring States has already made up his mind. His appearance here and these words prove these problems.

The person closest to Sengoku stretched out his hand to take it and asked: "Has Sora agreed to your request?"

Well, this is another meaningless nonsense.

Warring States nodded: "I came here directly from Commander Kong. Commander Kong has already agreed to my resignation."

Warring States first went to Commander-in-Chief Kong to submit his resignation, and then transferred here.

Resigning as a naval marshal is easy to say, but it is actually very troublesome to say that it is not easy. After all, the Navy, which is in charge of hundreds of thousands of people around the world, cannot simply say no and immediately give up the job.

There are still many procedures to be followed and a lot of work to be handed over.

A standing thin man with a long mustache that fell to his shoulders said: "In principle, we are not willing for you to resign as marshal of the navy. We have all seen the development of the navy under your governance over the years.

Here, your abilities and what you have done deserve strong recognition."

Warring States just listened and said nothing. If he had not resigned from the position of marshal before, maybe he would have reacted to these words. Now it sounds... slightly harsh.

The Warring States Period actually had some conflicts with the Five Old Stars, and the most direct conflict was because of the Shichibukai.

In the past, Doflamingo's Sengoku even sent cranes to hunt him down, and his adopted son Rosinandi was even killed by Doflamingo. These five old stars would not be unaware, but they still chose to let Doflamingo

Brother became the King of the Shichibukai.

It was during the Warring States Period that he contradicted the Five Old Stars for the first time.

From that moment on, there was a thorn in his heart!

However, his justice requires that he must obey the words of the World Government. This is a matter of principle. After reaching the position of Navy Admiral, he is destined to put his personal emotions after work.

Of course, there is no need to do this in the future, after all, he will be himself in the future.

He was waiting for what happened after Wulaoxing...

Well, Warring States didn't wait too long, he came the next moment.

"However, since Zeng Guo has already made up his mind, you must have thought carefully about it. You have never been an impulsive person, so it is useless for us to try to persuade you to stay.

We agree to resign as marshal of the navy, but the navy cannot live without you, so... when the new marshal is determined, you will serve as the chief inspector of the navy, and your experience will be the guarantee for the navy to continue moving forward."

This is also the intended meaning of the title.

To put it nicely, it means that these people who have been relegated to the second line can continue to use their spare time. To put it badly, it is impossible to completely retire, and they will definitely continue to squeeze your labor force.

Just look at Zefa in the original plot and you will know that the world government's indifference is simply engraved in your bones. Once you have no use value, the only ending is to be abandoned like a pair of worn shoes!

In the entire navy, almost two-thirds of the mid-level and senior generals were trained by Zefa, but the World Government was able to force Zefa out of the navy for the sake of a king named Shichibukai.

For such a world government to talk about emotions, loyalty, etc. is all ridiculous!

Of course, some conspiracy theories cannot be ruled out. Zefa may have been feared by the world government and was forced to leave on purpose.

However, people like Warring States who have dedicated their entire lives to the navy have extremely deep feelings for the navy and obviously will not resist such an arrangement.

Unlike Mawson, Mawson originally had no good feelings or sense of belonging to the world government.

Even in the Navy, he only identified with certain groups.

The Wulaoxing people exchanged glances, but one of them spoke up and asked Warring States: "So, what are your thoughts on the next candidate to take over your position as marshal?"

This is the meaty part!

To put it bluntly, since Warring States has proposed to resign from the position of marshal, his importance in the future will naturally not be as important as before.

Although during the Warring States Period, they were very easy to use.

Next, of course, we need someone who can do it easily—or even someone who can do it more easily.

Warring States said without hesitation: "For the position of Navy Marshal, I recommend Mo Sen to take the position..."

"impossible!"

As soon as Warring States said his name, one of the five old stars interrupted without hesitation and emphasized, "This is absolutely impossible! Mosen is too young, and he has only been a naval admiral for just over a year.

"Admiral of the Navy is not a child's play. In terms of experience and qualifications, Moson is not qualified for the position of Marshal of the Navy."

Perhaps because he felt that the words were too harsh, the yellow-haired five-old star softened his tone slightly.

"The position of marshal of the navy is different from that of a general. It is not something that can be done only by strength. It must also have an overall view of the future of the entire navy and consider everything for the navy.

We all know the growth history of General Mawson. He may have made great contributions to the navy and the government. It can be said that he is well-deserved for this general position.

But the position of marshal is the top priority of the Navy, and it is absolutely impossible to hand it over to such a young person to lead it so hastily.

Not to mention anything else, he has now found the Pirate Queen as his girlfriend. This kind of thing must never happen to the navy marshal."

The last point alone destined Mawson to be impossible to become marshal of the navy.

What's more, one thing Wulaoxing didn't say is that although time has passed regarding the death of Cp0's deputy leader, Mosen's suspicion has not gone away.

Just like what he said, they all knew about Mo Sen's growth history, and naturally knew that he was a guy who was determined to take revenge. They actually believed that the guy's death was related to Mo Sen.

But there is just no evidence.

Moreover, Mawson has no favorable impressions of the Celestial Dragons or the World Government. If such a guy becomes a naval marshal, it will be a disaster for the World Government.

This is the fundamental reason!

Of course Warring States knew this, so he first proposed an absolutely impossible candidate.

In fact, if Mawson is willing to be the marshal of the navy, it is still possible for the Warring States Period to continue to serve for 5-10 years to pave the way for Mawson, but Mawson is not interested in the position of marshal at all.

He even had the same idea of ​​refusing to be promoted to general like that bastard Garp.

"Then I propose that Kuzan take over the post of marshal of the navy. Kuzan has been in the navy for nearly 30 years. He is qualified for this position in terms of strength and merit and qualifications. He..."

Warring States revealed the real candidate in his heart.

Then he talked about what happened after Kuzan joined the Navy one by one, clarified his views, and finally said that Kuzan was the best candidate for this position.

The five old stars made eye contact with each other.

They are all foxes of thousands of years. Those who have reached their positions don't have countless gaps in their hearts. They just understand the Warring States' thoughts in a flash of thought.

He had brought up Mawson before just to arouse their opposition.

This was because they were afraid that they would have different candidates, so we took this step first to silence them. The key point was that from the perspective of the Warring States Period and the navy, Kuzan was indeed a very suitable candidate.

——But for them, it’s just not suitable.

In fact, Sengoku's worries were justified, and they did have other candidates. Compared to Kuzan, they preferred Sakaski, whose behavior was a perfect fit with the World Government.

Kuzan, on the other hand, has more of his own thinking, his approach is relatively mild, and sometimes he is very lazy... in short, he has a lot of shortcomings.

There may be many reasons to like someone, but to hate someone, only one is enough!

In fact, the most fundamental reason is that if Kuzan takes office, it will not be in their interests. It is as simple as that.

The navy is the world's navy, but first their navy.

Well, to put it bluntly, the Navy is indeed a dog raised by the Celestial Dragons.

After the exchange, and after checking their eyes, Wulaoxing decided to go with their original idea.

In the end, it was the person who originally received the resignation letter from the Warring States Period who spoke: "Ahem...we think Kuzan is not suitable, or Sakaski is more suitable for the Navy Marshal..."

"I object to your proposal in real name!"

A voice sounded from outside the door, followed by a handsome figure walking in.

He glanced around at these bad old men with different expressions, then looked at Warring States and grinned at him.

"I, Mohsen, am actually opposed to Red Gou Zi becoming the marshal of the navy!"
