Chapter 60 Self-exposure
Chapter 60 Self-exposure
"Most of the day? That would add up to about four days? The time flow rate is about two to one, which is not bad. I can go there and play for two days after taking a day off..."
Borsalino suddenly realized another function of the chat group. The time flow rate in different worlds is different. Doesn't it mean that he can use this to multiply his limited slacking time several times?
Major General Lorraine had no idea what Borsalino was talking about and did not dare to ask. Although he was only two levels lower than Borsalino, a mere branch major general could not hold his head up in front of the headquarters general.
"Major General Lorraine, the buyer introduced by the Don Quixote family..."
But just as Borsalino was about to leave, his adjutant excitedly pushed open the office door, and the smile on his face suddenly froze.
"..."X3
The office became very quiet for a while.
The adjutant glanced at the panicked Major General Lorraine, then at the speechless Admiral Kizaru, and suddenly realized a very critical issue.
Why did Admiral Kizaru suddenly appear here? Was it because the news of the Sabaody Naval Branch embezzling pirate bounties had leaked, or even that the reselling of second-hand weapons had been exposed?
Just when the adjutant was feeling uneasy, he suddenly saw Major General Lorraine giving him a vicious look, as if he wanted to eat him!
Recalling the fate of several adjutants before him who were used as scapegoats by Major General Lorraine, the adjutant, who was Major General Lorraine's brother-in-law, decided to sacrifice his own brother for the sake of justice.
Major General Lorraine, who was about to send Admiral Kizaru away, was almost depressed. His brother-in-law didn't come earlier or later, but just came in when the God of Plague came. If he didn't have a tigress at home, he would have kicked this idiot to the East China Sea branch.
Fearing that his brother-in-law would say something he shouldn't, Major General Lorraine decisively gave him a stern look.
To prevent this idiot from doing the same as he did last time in Garp's future, thinking that Admiral Kizaru is in cahoots with them and saying things that shouldn't be said.
The awkward silence lasted less than half a minute. Borsalino thought for a moment and decided to ignore it.
The World Government was established eight hundred years ago, which means that the Navy has also existed for eight hundred years.
The long time has added not only the navy's heritage, but also all kinds of corruption and darkness. It is somewhat wishful thinking to expect all navies to uphold justice.
Even Marshal Sengoku cannot change all this. After all, part of the reason for the corruption of the navy is the World Government and the Celestial Dragons. We can't expect the navy to overthrow the World Government on its own.
"General Kizaru! I want to report Major General Lorraine for reselling military equipment! Embezzling bounties! Organizing the slave trade!"
But just as Borsalino was about to leave, Major General Lorraine's brother-in-law, the adjutant, suddenly stood up and spoke loudly in righteous words.
Major General Lorraine, who had originally breathed a sigh of relief, was dumbfounded. Borsalino, who wanted to escape, twitched his mouth. For a moment, the office fell into a brief silence again.
"Hey, you, are you sure you want to report Major General Lorraine?"
Borsalino asked with a bit of distress. He really didn't want to get involved in all this mess.
God knows which active or retired naval senior is behind Major General Lorraine.
Even high-ranking officials of the World Government or the Celestial Dragons are possible.
It’s not that Borsalino can’t afford to offend these guys, but it’s still a bit troublesome to deal with them.
What's even more troublesome is that Borsalino almost never cared about these trivial matters in the past. If it were Sakaski or Kuzan dealing with the scum of the navy, it would be normal, but Borsalino's actions would most likely be regarded as the intention of Marshal Sengoku.
After all, it is a recognized fact among the top naval officers that only Marshal Sengoku can urge Admiral Kizaru to work.
"Yes! Major General Lorraine, as the branch chief, colluded with pirates to resell military equipment. I have wanted to report him for a long time!"
The adjutant spoke without hesitation, saying that it would be better to strike first than to be made a scapegoat.
"What a trouble..." Borsalino couldn't help but want to cover his face. He really didn't want to get involved in these trivial matters, but now people have reported it to his face. If he doesn't care, the reporter will have no way out.
Although in Borsalino's eyes, this adjutant did not look like a good person, but he, who claimed to be a righteous man, could not judge a person by his appearance.
"General Kizaru, I am innocent!"
Major General Lorraine was completely dumbfounded. He admitted that he had used some inappropriate means in order to marry the tigress in his family.
But that's no reason for his brother-in-law to cheat him. It was this idiot who introduced him to the tigress.
Now I regret why I was blinded by her beauty and failed to recognize the true nature of a tigress!
Major General Lorraine tried to save himself. After all, his brother-in-law had only been his adjutant for a short time and he did not have much evidence.
As long as he can get past Admiral Kizaru now, he will naturally be able to survive this crisis later with the help of the support he has.
"I am innocent too... Never mind. As the Admiral of the headquarters, I hereby announce that Major General Lorraine will be suspended pending investigation. The work of the Sabaody Archipelago Naval Branch will be temporarily handed over to your deputy... Um, who is your deputy?"
Borsalino scratched his hair and spoke impatiently.
"It's Colonel Blaine..."
Major General Lorraine replied with despair.
He had finally managed to drive that annoying old guy Brian out of the branch, but now it was all over.
Colonel Brian has been in the Sabaody Archipelago for so many years, and his seniority is even greater than that of Admiral Kizaru. It is impossible that everything that happened in the branch could be hidden from his eyes.
In the past, Major General Lorraine could suppress him by relying on his position, but now with the support of Admiral Kizaru, I’m afraid he can even find out the color of Major General Lorraine’s underwear.
"Then notify Colonel Brian to come over, and remember not to play any tricks."
Borsalino sat in Major General Lorraine's seat and spoke in a very unpleasant tone.
Even if you haven't eaten pork, you have seen pigs run. Although Borsalino rarely takes the initiative to deal with these naval scum, the corresponding procedures are also very clear.
While waiting for Colonel Brian to arrive, the bored Borsalino simply turned his attention to the chat group.
Speaking of the pool party that Tony was so proud of, it was not an exaggeration. During the seven-day pool party, Borsalino didn't even open the chat group.
