Chapter 283 Regret, 1 Smile
The Lu Kai that Cyborg admired at the beginning was the Lu Kai who had not been transformed by him and had his own unique personality and unique ideas.
Now, he was shaping Lu Kai as if he were a clay figure, treating him completely as a puppet, a soulless puppet.
When he thought of this, Cyborg suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, finally realizing that he almost made a big mistake.
A person who has no ideas of his own, no judgment of his own, no ability to think independently, no ability to stand on his own, and only believes what others say.
Is he still a qualified admiral?
No!
Can I become a naval marshal in the future?
also can not!
This kind of person is what Cyborg often calls a waste.
Lu Kai has always had his own ideas, his own judgments, the ability to think independently, and the ability to stand on his own.
But he, Steel Bone, is now personally training Lu Kai to become what he calls a waste, and he is taking advantage of Lu Kai's unreserved respect for him.
Ganggu shuddered all over, and a chill ran down his spine straight to the top of his head. Suddenly, as if something had dawned on him, he felt filled with deep regret.
"What have I been doing these past two years?" Cyborg realized that he almost ruined Lu Kai and almost shed tears.
That was the child I treated as my own grandson, but I destroyed him with my own hands.
Zhan Guo, however, acted as if he hadn't noticed and continued, "Why is Lu Kai so popular within the navy? So popular?
“It was because Garp believed in him and gave him complete freedom that Lu Kai had the opportunity to accomplish so many spectacular things.
"But it's been two years, two whole years, and Lu Kai has completely disappeared from everyone's sight.
“Many soldiers in the branch were discussing why Lu Kai did nothing for two years after becoming a general.
"The soldiers in our army who saw all this had great dissatisfaction with you. They thought you were restricting Lu Kai's development and treating him like a caged bird.
"It's really like Lu Kai said, being a general is like being in prison. This is already a very serious situation."
"I don't know about these circumstances." Cyborg said with a somewhat gloomy look.
"You haven't heard it because no one dares to tell you, because you are extremely arbitrary and self-willed when it comes to Lu Kai's affairs." Zhan Guo sighed.
"In fact, Lu Kai told me privately two years ago that I could advise you not to treat him like an ignorant child, and hope that you can treat him as a qualified general.
"I tried to persuade him that he had his reasons for doing so, and that it was for his own good, so that he would not disappoint me. But after two years, it was as if the child had completely lost his personality and vitality.
“My twenties are the most active time, but I am like an old man who is living a life of idleness and waiting to die.
“You don’t know, but today he took the initiative to ask to deal with those pirates. I am really happy about it. This shows that this kid hasn’t changed. He just kept suppressing his thoughts. Now he is even more impatient.
"I feel particularly relieved for this. I was really worried that he would become depressed and lose all motivation."
"Enough!" Cyborg could no longer control his emotions, tears streaming down his cheeks uncontrollably, startling Warring States who was standing beside him.
Sengoku originally just wanted to persuade Cyborg, so he told him everything he knew. Unexpectedly, his words made the eighty-year-old Admiral of the Navy Headquarters Cyborg cry.
Lu Kai naturally didn't know about the conversation between Sengoku and Cyborg, but even if he knew it, he wouldn't be surprised, because all of this was part of Lu Kai and Fu Ya's plan and expectations.
Moreover, Lu Kai has also used some tricks on Cyborg in the past two years.
When interacting with Cyborg in private, Lu Kai always deliberately shows his immature side according to Fu Ya's request.
What he did naturally made Cyborg even more worried about him, and made Cyborg even more determined to keep him by his side and not let him go out.
But in public, Lu Kai showed a kind of frustration and depression that made everyone who saw him feel distressed.
Is Lu Kai depressed now? On the contrary, he is more active than anyone else, running around the world.
Now Lu Kai has set up three dark space gates in the East China Sea, West China Sea, South China Sea, North China Sea, the Grand Line and the New World.
These space gates are independent of other people and cannot be used to teleport to each other.
However, Lu Kai can open a special dark space door connecting to these places at any place, and can teleport himself to any sea area in the world at any time.
In the past two years, Lu Kai has recruited a large number of talents for Divine Punishment and directed Divine Punishment to do many spectacular things, making the Divine Punishment organization more and more powerful and influential.
Now the Great Pirate Era has arrived, and after four years of fermentation, it has become increasingly intense.
The number of pirates is increasing at a speed visible to the naked eye. The whole world is in chaos. Various underground dark forces and lawless areas are increasing, and the Divine Punishment Organization is also active all over the world.
However, Cyborg locked up Lukai, a general who was once active on the front line, guarded the New World for the headquarters, suppressed countless pirates and made a great reputation, in the headquarters and did not let him go out.
Many people within the navy have expressed strong opinions about this. Even the Five Elders are very dissatisfied with Cyborg. Now even Sengoku, who has always obeyed Cyborg's orders, can't stand it anymore.
This is Fu Ya’s plan.
In fact, Lu Kai was also shaken. After all, Cyborg's care for Lu Kai was genuine, so Lu Kai was very uneasy in his heart.
But when Lu Kai thought about the old man's age now, his lack of energy but still having to worry about so many things, he actually felt very distressed.
If the old man really had enough energy, he wouldn't have handed over many things that should have been handled by the marshal to Zhan Guo.
Lu Kai knows better than anyone how strong-willed Cyborg is.
In addition, if Lu Kai wants to achieve his goal earlier, he needs to get the position of marshal earlier, so he needs Zhan Guo to become a marshal earlier.
For various reasons, although Lu Kai felt reluctant about taking advantage of the old man's kindness to him and planning for the old man to retire early, he had no choice but to do so.
Moreover, Lu Kai also felt that many generals and the Five Elders in the Marine Headquarters had reached their limit in their emotions because they were forced by Cyborg to stay in the headquarters and not be allowed to leave.
Just a gentle push and it's basically done.
However, what Lu Kai didn't expect was that Zhan Guo had already helped him with this.
It took a long time for Cyborg to stop crying, and at the same time he laughed at himself in his heart. It was really embarrassing for a naval marshal to cry in front of his subordinates.
"This brat!" Cyborg murmured.
