Chapter 636: The Importance of a General
...
Bi Ya patted the high-end cloud sofa under her, stared into A Jin's eyes and asked.
"Hey, hey, hey, Jin, you haven't forgotten why you joined the navy in the first place, have you? Now that Captain Gill has returned safely, you're not reluctant to give up this position, are you?"
"whispering sound!"
"Ugh!"
Ajin sighed and put the half-smoked cigarette in his hand into the ashtray.
"Everything I have was given by Captain Gul. I will never forget the kindness the captain has shown me!"
"Then what are you hesitating about?"
"Biya, you may not believe it, but it's not that I'm reluctant to give up the position and power of the admiral. On the contrary, I even regret that I climbed to such a high position just to gain the greatest authority in the navy."
"What I can't let go of now is the responsibility I need to shoulder after taking this position!"
"You know, the Navy is about to go to war with the Whitebeard Pirates, and Whitebeard has a relationship with Brother Weevil..."
"Many lives are bound to be lost on both sides in this war. A merciful army cannot be run by a merciful one. Some sacrifices are inevitable. I am not afraid of seeing bloodshed."
"But, what if, I mean what if, Captain Geer wants the Navy to suffer a great defeat! Even a crushing defeat! In order to weaken the power of the World Government and the Navy! What do you think I should do?"
"Teacher Zefa, my subordinates! They all trust me unconditionally!"
"They also have their own families who are waiting for their safe return. When I think that as a leader who is deeply loved and trusted by them, I will abandon them at the critical moment and even betray the justice of the navy and stand against them, I feel very... anxious!"
Ajin covered his chest with his hands, his expression struggling.
This is the responsibility that the admiral of the navy must bear!
"You stupid!"
Bi Ya rolled her eyes and cursed mercilessly.
"When you don't know what to do, why don't you just ask the captain? What's the point of wondering about it?"
"Ok?"
Ajin was stunned for a moment, and only spoke after a long while.
"You're right! Perhaps I should just ask Captain Gill."
“Blur, blur, blur!”
While the two were talking, the Den Den Mushi on the desk suddenly started buzzing, and Ajin picked up the receiver and answered it.
"Hey!"
"It's me, Zhan Guo, Jin, come to my office."
"Crack!"
"Crack!"
As soon as Zhan Guo hung up the phone, he saw a ball of blue and white electric current in front of him beginning to transform into a human form.
If Den Den Mushi wasn't wireless, Sengoku would have suspected that Jin came through the telephone line.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, this speed! It's so fast that it's terrifying!"
Borsalino, who also appeared in the Marshal's office, sighed with an exaggerated expression.
"I would be happy to accept this if anyone else said it, but it's very uncomfortable to hear it from you, Brother Borsalino!"
"Haha, don't think too much, it's a sincere compliment."
Kizaru gave a lewd smile.
"Marshal Zhan Guo, please tell me what mission you have."
Ajin turned and looked at Zhan Guo.
"I asked you to come here to force the Seven Warlords of the Sea to be summoned! Our opponent is Whitebeard, so we must use all our strength!"
"If they don't accept the World Government's mandatory call, the title of Shichibukai will be directly stripped from them. This threat may work for the other people, but it may backfire on the two guys who don't take the title of Shichibukai seriously, Enel the Fishing Sage and Franky the Mechanical Destroyer."
"These two were the candidates you recommended. You might get along well with them. According to the intelligence sent back, Enel, Franky, Pedro, and the new Seven Warlords of the Sea, the fishman Hodi Jones, have all gone to Golden Casino. So I'd like to trouble you to go and deliver the World Government's summons to these four people."
Zhan Guo said as he took out four rolls of paper summons and placed them on the table.
Golden City is the world's largest entertainment venue. Almost everyone, whether pirates, navy, nobles or ordinary people, will come to Golden City to check in and have fun. So Sengoku didn't think it was strange that the four Shichibukai all went to Golden City.
"Okay, no problem, leave it to me."
Ajin simply put away the summons and said.
"Also, Golden City is planning to hold a large-scale concert."
Zhan Guo took out another promotional poster and spread it out on the table before continuing.
"Several Celestial Dragons will come to Golden City at that time... The World Government requires our navy to send forces to ensure the personal safety of the Celestial Dragons..."
Zhan Guo rubbed his temple.
"Damn it, you're such a worry, even coming out to cause trouble for us at a time like this!"
"Marshal Sengoku, you know I've never been responsible for the security of the Celestial Dragons!"
Ajin refused directly.
"I know. Borsalino is in charge of this matter. I just want to say that since you are also going to the scene, if you really encounter any problems, you two can communicate and cooperate and take care of each other."
"This Golden City is an absolutely neutral place specially approved by the World Government, so it is not surprising to meet anyone there. In this extraordinary period, you must be extra careful."
"understand!"
"Oh my, I feel much more at ease knowing that you, Jin, are going with me. It's still scary to go to a place like that alone."
Borsalino joked.
...
grand line
The island of failure and restart.
Shampoo ground.
A huge golden ship, larger than the islands formed by the roots of several Alchiman mangroves, is anchored 10 nautical miles north of the Sabaody Archipelago.
"Hey, hey, hey, hurry up, hurry up and go to island number 30 to grab a ticket. If you go too late, there will be no seats left!!"
Many tourists and residents of the Chabaoti Archipelago are gathering on the northern coast.
"What! When did you become so wealthy? You actually have the money to buy tickets to the Soul King's concert? I heard that the worst back row seats cost 200 million Baileys each!"
"Two million Baileys? How could that be? Didn't you see the poster? This concert will feature not only the Soul King Brook, but also the Soul Diva Uta! The first dream collaboration between two soul singers! The cheapest ticket has already been sold for 200 million Baileys!"
"What? It's so expensive! Are you so rich? I want to go but I don't have the money. I can't afford this concert. You should go by yourself!"
"Stupid! I don't have that much money!"
"Huh? If you don't have money, what are you going to do?"
"This concert is definitely not to be missed. If you can't afford tickets inside the venue, you can buy tickets outside the venue to listen to it!"
"What? Are there any tickets for the concert?"
"Yes, now almost all the ships in the entire Sabaody Archipelago have gone to the north coast to pre-sell tickets. It only costs 10 Baileys per seat. When the concert officially starts in two days, they will dock the ship outside the Golden City, and you can still hear the singing clearly! There are also Den Den Mushi on the ship to broadcast the live footage, so you can enjoy it. The most important thing is that it is economical and affordable!"
"What? There is such a good thing! What are we waiting for? Let's go together!"
