Volume 11: Ninjutsu and Pirates Chapter 041 Discussion
Join in the fun?
The red-haired man shook his head and refused decisively, "Just continue to pay attention to this matter, and don't join in the fun. I don't want to be misunderstood by the navy."
He was certainly not afraid of the navy, but there was no need to fight with the navy over a misunderstanding and to add pressure to that group of people for nothing, since they were not familiar with each other.
Ben Beckman nodded in agreement. Although he was an idiot most of the time and would lose his arm to save a child, he was quite reliable at critical moments.
On the other hand, the Navy Headquarters.
In the conference room, a group of admirals and lieutenant generals gathered together and were holding a headquarters meeting.
Freshly printed newspapers were placed in front of everyone, making them realize the seriousness of the matter.
The Celestial Dragons have been reduced to slaves and are about to be auctioned off. This is not only a slap in the face of the Navy, but also a slap in the face of the World Government. If the Navy does nothing, it will inevitably become a laughing stock of the world.
Marshal Zhan Guo suppressed his anger, looked around at the generals, and said in a deep voice: "What do you think about this matter?"
Akainu Sakaski said without hesitation: "There is no doubt that this is a provocation to the navy. I propose that we immediately call the Demon Slayer Order and raze Grantaizoro to the ground."
For someone like him who believes in absolute justice, the actions of Emiya and his group are definitely the worst of the worst.
The kind that must be completely erased.
However, Vice Admiral Tsuru decisively rejected Akainu's proposal, "No."
Vice Admiral Tsuru is not only a vice admiral of the Marine Headquarters, but also a naval staff officer. The only ones with more seniority than her are Sengoku and Garp. Even the three admirals of the Navy are merely her juniors.
Even Akainu didn't dare to stab this old senior, he could only stare and ask: "Why?"
Vice Admiral Tsuru took a puff of his cigarette and said, "Because there are imprisoned Celestial Dragons inside Gurantezoro, are you planning to wipe them out as well, Sakaski?"
Akainu couldn't help but grit his teeth, although he couldn't stand the Celestial Dragons and didn't want to kill them, he had to admit that the status of the Celestial Dragons was indeed very high. If he accidentally hurt the Celestial Dragons in this war, he, as an admiral, might be held accountable and eventually have to leave the navy.
"Then let's rescue the Celestial Dragons first." Akainu said immediately.
"This is not an easy task." Kizaru, who was sitting next to Akainu, sighed, "You all saw what happened to me. I once wanted to rescue the Celestial Dragons, but in the end even the power of the Flash Fruit was drained away by the enemy. The enemy is very strong. Sakaski and the three admirals cannot win if they fight alone."
Akainu angrily said: "You are only boosting the enemy's prestige."
Kizaru said: "I am just telling the truth."
"That's enough." Marshal Zhan Guo saw that the two people were about to quarrel, and he couldn't help but slam the table and shouted, "I called this meeting to discuss how to deal with that group of people, not to ask you to fight among yourselves."
Akainu immediately shut his mouth.
Kizaru said slowly: "There is no doubt that the enemy is very strong. The woman named Luo Hao is stronger than me. Her observation Haki is suspected to be able to predict the future. Her physical skills are not inferior to Vice Admiral Garp . There is also another young man holding a spear who can block my light speed kick. He should not be underestimated."
Marshal Zhan Guo said: "There is a person mentioned in Morgans' news. His name is Cu Chulainn, who defeated the Golden Emperor."
Kizaru said: "It is very likely that he is not inferior to any admiral."
Lieutenant General Taotu said: "Isn't that a bit alarmist?"
Anyone who can defeat the Golden Emperor can indeed be called a monster, but not everyone who can defeat the Golden Emperor can be considered a general.
Doflamingo, for example, is stronger than the average vice admiral, but is not yet an admiral.
"Don't underestimate him, Momosaki." Kizaru said seriously: "I can feel the fear of that guy, his strength is absolutely beyond doubt."
Lieutenant General He said slowly: "With Luo Hao and Cu Chulainn, the enemy has two generals, while we have lost one. This battle is not easy to fight."
Kizaru's face looked a little embarrassed. After he lost the power of the Pika Pika Nomi, his strength declined significantly. Now he is at most above the rank of lieutenant general, and is still some distance away from being an admiral.
There is no way to treat him as a general now.
But in name, he is still a general.
After all, he has made many contributions to the navy over the years. We cannot immediately remove him from the position of admiral just because he has lost the power of the Pika Pika Nomi and his strength has declined.
The navy is not so ruthless as to be like this, otherwise the navy would have been demoralized long ago.
But Kizaru knew very well that his abdication was a matter of course.
After all, the admiral of the navy is the face of the navy. If one is not strong enough and forcibly sits in this position, once he is defeated by pirates other than the Four Emperors, it will only bring shame to the navy.
Akainu said: "So we must do our best to eradicate this gang of villains. Otherwise, in time, another pirate group will rise up and become the fifth emperor. I believe that you will definitely not be happy to see a new villain appear."
Ghost Spider said without hesitation: "I agree with Admiral Sakaski's decision. We must defeat these guys completely with the force of thunder and lightning to maintain the dignity of the Navy and the World Government."
Lieutenant General Dauberman nodded, "I agree."
Afterwards, Vice Admirals Huoshaoshan, Mole and others also voted in favor of Akainu's proposal to fight the opponent.
Since the other party has publicly stated in the newspaper that they want to sell the Celestial Dragons as slaves, the Navy has no way out and has to fight this battle.
Marshal Zhan Guo saw this scene and nodded slightly, "Very good, since everyone has decided, let's discuss the matter of rescuing the Celestial Dragons."
After all, the Celestial Dragons are now in the hands of that evil gang, and the navy is afraid to act rashly.
If they don't rescue the Celestial Dragons, they won't dare to go all out.
What if the Celestial Dragons were hurt? After all, every lieutenant general present knew what kind of people they were. They were just a bunch of trash.
But how to rescue the Celestial Dragons is a problem.
Even Admiral Kizaru was defeated by the enemy and deprived of the Pika-Pika Nomi when he went to rescue the Celestial Dragons. No one present was sure that they could rescue the Celestial Dragons from under the enemy's noses.
Marshal Zhan Guo saw a group of people looking at each other in bewilderment. After thinking for a long time without saying a word, he simply called out their names.
"Kuzan, what are you going to do about this matter?"
The implication is: Do you have any good ideas?
