The Scourge of Pirates

   Chapter 924

  The arbitrariness of the Tianlong people, no one looks at him...

  In the eyes of many people, it is deeply ingrained.

  However, the operation of removing the position of General Fujitora is still unreasonable and beyond the cognition of Akagu.

  I don’t know if it is the ignorance and stupidity of the Tianlong people, or overconfidence.

  In today's situation, how important is the combat power of a general?

  Does this kind of thing still need him to say?

  Akainu's face is gloomy.

  In fact, he also knows that once the upper-level decision is made, no matter how hard he argues, he cannot change any facts.

  Those words that the upper echelons don't want to hear, even if he personally said it countless times in the past, it is impossible to be heard.

  As for those who are willing to hear from the upper level, he just puts a fart and can get a response.

   "Grumbling—"

  The suffocation and anger in the red dog's heart vented into magma, and the transfer order and the desk were burned to ashes.

  Since sitting in this position, I learned that many things cannot be achieved.

   Regardless of what is happening, we don’t look at the right or wrong, but the attitude and decision of the upper echelon.

  If it was before——

  As a general, he can only carry out his duties and do his best to complete the task without asking for any reason.

  But now he is the marshal.

  So it is no longer possible to consider the problem from the perspective of the soldier.

  He must shoulder the responsibilities of being a marshal, for the world, for this era... to kill the existence of pirates!

  However, the current world government is different from the world government he had previously identified.

  Sometimes he even feels that the orders assigned by the world government are dragging him like a pig teammate.

  For example, this order to cater to the mood of the Tianlong people is simply outrageous.

  But he can't do anything...

  Lower your head, this is the price you need to bear when you go up the steps.

  If you don’t want to lower your head, unless you can walk along the steps to the highest point...

  But his ideal is not to stand at the apex of power, but to end this **** era of great pirates.

  Akainu realizes that some things can no longer count on the upper class, so in order to deal with some changes that may happen in the future, he must set aside a back hand as soon as possible.

   "Listen to the logistics side...you have burnt four desks this month."

  Fujitora slowly put the bowl below.

  He can't see, but he can know what happened just now.

  The sulphur smell permeating the office is quite pungent, but fortunately he has finished eating the noodles.

  Akadog looked at Fujitora after hearing this, suppressing his anger and said: "It seems that you have no opinion on this'resignation'."

   "The old man has repeatedly neglected his duty, and it should be a matter of being held accountable and resigned."

  Fujitora took the towel and wiped his hands.

  Judging from the many facts that have happened, he did not fulfill his duties as a general in all aspects.

  Originally, Huang Yuan and him should bear the responsibility together.

only--

   Huang Yuan died in battle.

  So, all the responsibilities are naturally borne by him, Fujitora.

  But on the other hand, because Huang Yuan died, Fujitor is willing to accept all the blame.

  In short, something has happened.

  Fujitora will accept the situation calmly.

  Maybe someone is thinking...

  Why did the Navy lose repeatedly to Maude?

  Even under the first opportunity, he has never taken advantage of Maude?

  However, Fujitora would not think about it.

  He put the towel next to the bowl, and immediately reached out and fumbled to pick up the crutches leaning on the side of the sofa.

  Akainu frowned, his face gloomy, watching Fujitora pick up the cane and get up.

  A paper ordered from the upper floor, and when Fujitora sat here and finished eating the noodles, the red dog's brows were not loosened.

   "Don't forget, you are still a navy."

  He looked at Fujitora who was about to get up and leave, and said in a low tone.

  The navy headquarters can barely accept the abdication of General Fujitora, but cannot accept Fujitor's departure.

  A general-level combat power is irreplaceable and important!

  Fujitora's movements stopped suddenly.

  He didn't respond to Akagi's words, knocked on the ground with a cane, and fumbled towards the office door.

  Akagu watched Fujitora silently.

  It wasn't until Fujitora walked out of the office and left for a long time before he took his gaze back and turned to look at the phone worm that had survived the boiling lava.

  On the corridor.

  The sound of clogs stepping on the ground sounded, mixed with the sound of crutches knocking on the ground.

  A Fujitora in a purple robe walks on the corridor.

  The navy encountered on the way will silently salute him.

  The silent words and deeds obviously still regarded Fujitora as a general.

  From this, we can also see the reputation and weight of Fujitora in the navy.

  Fujitor did not respond to the silent salutes from many admirals.

  He walked all the way to the corner of the corridor, and then suddenly stopped.

  By the corner wall, a white-haired Karp was leaning there, obviously waiting for him here.

"have a drink?"

  Kapu invited him.

  Fujitora turned his head to think, but quickly became aftertaste the taste of soba noodles.

  So.

  He asked, "Are there soba noodles?"

"Ha ha."

  Carp laughed and said, "Enough pipe."

  After half an hour.

  In the cemetery where no bones can be buried.

  Kapu and Fujitora sat cross-legged in front of a stone plaque full of names.

  Two people holding wine glasses.

  The clear aroma of wine permeated from the cup.

   "What are your plans afterwards?"

  Kapu stared at the rows of familiar names on the stele, and asked Fujitora where he was going.

  Fujitora couldn't see, but he was staring at the stele, as if he could see the name on it.

  He took a sip, and then answered Karp’s question in a calm tone.

   "Sakaski hopes that the old man will continue to stay as a seaman."

"Oh?"

   Karp raised his brows and asked, "Then what is your decision?"

"Leave."

  Fujitora said, slowly pouring the remaining sake in the cup in front of the stone monument.

"Yes……"

  Carp sighed.

  He expressed regret for Fujitora’s departure.

  Because he saw that Fujitora had decided, he didn't even try to stay.

Fujitora put down the wine glass and said calmly: "There are some things that can only be done by sitting in the general position, but there are some things that can be'see' more clearly only when you leave that position. No matter where you go, the way the old man wants to go... is It will not change."

  His original intention to join the Navy was to abolish the Qiwuhai system that would seriously threaten the country.

now.

  The Qiwuhai system was abolished, and his original intention has been fulfilled.

After   , what goal should we move forward with?

  There is no need to think about this problem at all.

  Although I cannot see, my heart is not blind.

  Just follow your heart.

   Karp turned his head to look at Fujitora, and exclaimed: “I seem to have heard similar words somewhere, but the old man knows that you must be the one who has gone the farthest on the road to practicing justice.”

  Fujitora was silent after hearing this.

  After a while, he slowly said: "After leaving the headquarters, the old man intends to meet Maude first."

  "……"

  Kapu silently looked at Fujitora.

   Logically speaking, the naval legend who should hate Maud the most should have a reaction because of Fujitora’s words.

  But above the face engraved by the years, there is only peace.

  Seeing Karp's sudden silence, Fujitora did not speak for a while.

  There is no sound in front of the tombstone.

  Occasionally, a breeze blows, blowing up the withered petals that have fallen on the tombstone for many days.

  Pour the wine sprinkled on the ground and let it dry gradually.

  But the aroma of the wine has become more intense.

   "Smile, it's your words..."

  After a long time, Karp spoke.

   "It will definitely see farther and clearer than us."

  "……"

  There was another silence before the tombstone.

  After a while.

   "The noodle is cold..."

   Fujitora whispered.

Castle in the Sky.

  The island of the apex, inside the castle.

  Maud sits on a gold chair made of pure gold by Tezolo.

  This is Tezolo's request.

  Because it's not a big deal, Maude tried his best to satisfy Tezolo's request.

   is not superficial coordination, but really allowing oneself to adapt and get used to sitting on the golden chair.

  So even if he was alone in the room, he would sit on a golden chair instead of a softer sofa.

  Maud lowered his eyes, playing with a pure gold ring engraved with the word "tiger" in his hand.

   During this period of returning to base camp.

  He was waiting for news from the revolutionary army, and he was also waiting for the world government to take action.

  In addition, let Luo work hard to digitize the various effects of pure gold and evil drugs.

   and the argentite from the country of Jangwa, as an important material for mass production of pure gold rings.

It is worth mentioning that.

  Wanokuni’s craftsmanship is eye-catching.

   can save Tezolo some effort.

  Suddenly.

  A sound of wings stirring came from the balcony.

  Maud just listened to the sound, and he knew that it was Lafayette.

  Because every time someone can come to him from the balcony, Lafayette is the only one.

   "Are they gone?"

  Maud looked at Lafayette.

  In the words, they refer to the straw hat group.

  "嚯嚯……"

  Lafayette instantly realized that Maude was referring to the straw hat group, pursed his lips and smiled: "Yes."

  He came over to tell Maude the news.

  But without waiting for him to speak first, Maude asked first instead.

  I wanted to use that large-scale experience and domineering to'see' the departure of the straw hat group.

  Maud turned his head to Raphael, without asking much.

  Based on the current world situation, even if Luffy has the aura of the protagonist, it is impossible to do anything during this period.

  So he has no interest in what the straw hats will do next.

  I just can guess that Luffy hurried out this time to find Ace, who was left there by him, on the Shui Xian Xing Island.

  Maud lowered his head slightly and looked at the pure gold ring in his hand.

  A few days ago.

  He gave Usopp a pure gold ring coated with shadow film in the name of the master, and clearly stated the value.

  As a result, Usopp finally gave the pure gold ring to Luffy.

  Looking to Usopp, using moves will consume the life of Luffy, and he needs this ring even more.

  Because this is Usopp's choice and decision, Maude did not say anything, but he would not give Usopp a pure gold ring.

  The straw hat group whose fate has changed drastically from this moment...

  What will happen afterwards?

  No one knows.

  Kemod is convinced--

  The light on the world stage will only shine on him in the end.

   "Lafayette."

  Maud suddenly raised his head and looked at Lafayette.

  "Call Jinping over here."

"OK."

  Lafayette turned and spread his wings and flew out of the balcony.

  Maud watched Lafayette leave, and soon put away the pure gold ring he was going to give Fujitora, and then picked up the newspaper that was pressed against the corner of the table.

  There was a heavy news in the newspaper——

  Navy Fujitora removes the position of general.

  In addition to this heavy news, other pens and inks were spent on his Maud Pirates and the Vinsmok family, which has been very active recently.

  After the Shuixian Star Island celebration event ended...

  The media in the world did not stop carnival because of the passage of time.

  Every day I do my best to report everything about the Maud Pirates.

  Tossing over and over again, that is, pouring "firepower" on the permanent pointer to Love Drew.

  After all, in the eyes of the world, Maude has already got the permanent pointer of Ravdrew.

  So the media is constantly reporting on high-profile, so that the world is always paying attention to the movement of the Maud Pirates.

  They need to know--

  The Mord Pirates, holding the permanent pointer of Ravdrew, are ready to set off to the final island when they will get the big secret treasure left by the One Piece.

  Some people are watching, and some are taking action.

  Many big pirates with names and surnames in the New World have rushed to Maud’s base camp one after another.

   is not to stop Maude, but to join Maude.

  Join if you can’t beat it.

   is normal!

  Furthermore, most of the pirate circles pay attention to strength and respect, and the weak eat the strong.

  Maud can completely conquer them regardless of strength or reputation.

so.

  It is not so much that they want to join Maude, as it is unilaterally begging Maude to accept them.

  This is the situation right now.

  Maud published a statement in the newspaper that Ralph Drew’s permanent pointer was not in his hands, and no one would believe it.

  Just glanced at the latest information, Maude put down the newspaper.

   "If time is too late..."

  Made squeezed his cheeks and muttered to himself: "Let’s move the fisherman island over first."

  Let the murlocs live in the sun is the promise that Maude gave to the murlocs before, and it is also Shiping’s expectation.

now.

  Since the base camp has taken root here, it is time to fulfill the promise.

  Maud has thought about using Noah's Ark to take all the murlocs over, and then directly blow up the entire murloc island.

  On the one hand, it may threaten the Red Earth Continent and the holy land above it, on the other hand, it is difficult for the pirates in the first half of the Great Channel to enter the new world.

but.

  Maud, who was habitually considering his companions, finally gave up this idea.

  After all, his team has the ability to move the entire Murloc Island over, so there is no reason to destroy the native homeland of the Murloc tribe.

   "Boom boom."

  The door of the room was knocked.

  Maud looked at the door, and saw and heard that the outline of the body of the green pheasant outside the door was clearly drawn.

"Come in."

   "Crunch—"

  The green pheasant pushed in and said lazily: "It's only noon, and about five hundred pirates have already arrived..."

"Yes?"

  Maud raised his hand to his chin and asked, "Can Violet hold it?"

  Green pheasant shook his head.

  Violet’s staring fruit ability can remotely monitor any "guests" who come to the waters of Wano Country.

  After meeting the distance condition, you can see through people's hearts directly.

  So, Maude asked Violet to screen the pirates who wanted to join.

  Those who have evil intentions will be thrown directly into prison by Xiliu.

  He who commits a felony will be executed directly by Xiliu.

  If you really want to join, you will temporarily stay.

  For these troops sent to the door on their own initiative, Maude has no reason not to accept them.

  Anyway, since you can come through the difficult words of Wano Country, don't think about leaving.

  There are so many people who can be delivered to the door, and Violet’s physical strength seems to be overwhelming...
