Chapter 740 Brave Marines
...
"What Whitebeard's body? I didn't take it. Don't talk nonsense. Besides, why would I need a body? It must have been destroyed in the war, right? After all, you guys were fighting so fiercely just now."
Ger answered without hesitation.
"Marshal Zhan Guo! Don't listen to his nonsense, I clearly saw it... wuwuwu!"
"Shut up, what are you looking at? You're the only one with eyes, right? You're seeing things! No! You're not seeing anything!"
An upright naval soldier wanted to step forward to report Captain Gul, but his superior covered his mouth and dragged him back.
The general turned around and found that several big men were looking at him. He could only scratch his head and smile awkwardly, but he was already sweating profusely.
He couldn't help but secretly curse his subordinate in his heart for being so inconsiderate. Marshal Sengoku and a group of bigwigs knew very well whether Captain Gol had hidden Whitebeard's body or not. There was no need for a soldier like you to remind them.
The other party did not refuse directly but just refused to admit it. This was already very considerate. Didn’t you see that even though Marshal Zhan Guo was very unhappy, he had to endure it and didn’t lose his temper?
At this time, you still have to jump out and say that you saw that it was the other party who took away Whitebeard's body. Aren't you deliberately trying to embarrass the marshal?
Zhan Guo turned around and said in a strong tone.
"Humph!...Since you didn't take it, it seems that it was destroyed in the war..."
Akainu on the side widened his eyes in shock, unable to believe his ears, and he hurriedly interrupted loudly.
"No! Marshal Zhan Guo! You are letting the tiger go back to the mountain!"
"Sakaski!"
Sengoku frowned, but Akainu showed no intention of stopping.
"The enemy is already showing signs of defeat! If we don't wipe them out now, it will be difficult to get such an opportunity again!"
"Akainu, I am still the Marshal now. You can make your own judgment whether to fight or not! You just need to follow orders!"
There was already some dissatisfaction in Zhan Guo's tone. He did not rejoin the battle after being knocked away by Gel. He had been carefully observing the fight between Gel and Ajin from the side, while also thinking about how this war would end.
Although Gel has lost his left arm, he is still full of energy. On the other hand, Ajin's weak condition can no longer be hidden from the eyes of everyone present. It is obvious that he was seriously injured in the fierce battle just now, and he has been holding on for the sake of the overall situation.
Moreover, there are many uncertain factors outside, such as the remnants of Whitebeard, the large forces of the Revolutionary Army, the Blackbeard Pirates and the missing prisoners on the sixth floor, so the navy must not continue to fight with the opponent at the cost of everything. So this may be the only chance to stop the war.
"Damn it!!"
Akainu's eyes were filled with anger and unwillingness.
Captain Gel felt a little sympathetic when he saw this, and secretly complained in his heart that if Zhan Guo had only proposed "helping Sakaski regain his masculinity" as one of the conditions for a ceasefire, Sakaski would not have been so resentful regardless of whether he agreed or not.
"You're still too naive! Zhan Guo."
Captain Gel's sudden words startled everyone around him.
"asshole…"
Veins popped up on Seng Guo's forehead.
Seeing the marshal's face quickly turning blue, the sailors turned their heads away and pretended to hear everything.
This guy actually said that the 77-year-old Admiral Sengoku was too young? How audacious!
"Hey hey hey!"
No matter what, there is no time for the old man Zhan Guo to grow up slowly. After this battle, his position as the Navy Admiral will end! Next, a new era of the Navy is coming. A bunch of old men who are out of date! It’s time to make room for them!
Captain Gel thought so and couldn't help but let out a sinister laugh that made his own people feel at ease.
Vice Admiral He acted as a peacemaker and patiently guided the others.
"Sakaski, we have experienced many battles with the Whitebeard Pirates and have sacrificed many soldiers. Even if we force them to stay now, the navy will have to pay a heavy price. By then, the navy will be weak and exhausted, and it will take a long time to recover. Who will maintain the order of this sea? You have to understand Sengoku. He was forced to make this choice!"
"Humph!"
Sakaski snorted.
The surrounding marines thought that Admiral Akainu's angry and tsundere look was actually quite good, at least not as scary as before.
"Hahahaha, Sakasu-ji, stop throwing a tantrum. A soldier's duty is to obey orders. You can't stop us from leaving anyway, so why bother getting angry with Marshal Sengoku?"
Captain Gill added fuel to the fire.
"Damn bastard!"
"Stop it, Sakaski! Are you going to openly disobey military orders? Do you still have me as a marshal in your eyes?"
Akainu almost rushed forward again, but was stopped by Sengoku.
"Humph! Marshal Zhan Guo, you will definitely regret this!"
Akainu suppressed his anger.
"I will bear the consequences of the decisions I make."
Zhan Guo also became a little angry.
"I can't do anything if you insist on letting them go! But this guy must stay!"
Sakaski raised her finger and pointed at Ivankov murderously.
"Ahhh, he's coming for me, so scary, Chief, Boss Gel, you guys won't abandon me, right?"
Ivankov hurriedly asked for help from the two people beside him.
"Don't worry, little Ivan. I won't sell you without a good price."
“Ahhh! Is it just because of the price? That’s too much.”
Ivankov was secretly sad.
"Remove the devil fruit power from Sakaski! As a condition for the truce!"
Zhan Guo finally remembered this.
"Okay, I agree to your condition! But, in return, you must also meet one of my conditions!"
Ge Er and Zhan Guo looked at each other.
"what do you want?"
Seeing that Gel was finally willing to make concessions, Zhan Guo did not directly refuse.
"It's simple. You compensate me with a left arm! I will turn Akainu back into a man!"
"Asshole! What kind of conditions are these? You don't have any sincerity at all!"
"Hahahaha!"
Zhan Guo was so angry when he heard this, but Ge Er burst into laughter.
"Don't be so naive, Zhan Guo. I've already told you that you are not qualified to make conditions!"
"Bye then, sailors! See you again someday."
Gel waved goodbye to everyone.
"Damn it! Don't even think about escaping!"
Akainu could no longer bear it and immediately rushed forward, waving his lava fist.
Anyway, now that the talks have broken down, he is not disobeying Zhan Guo's orders!
"Please stop! Stop fighting!"
A young marine suddenly rushed out, opened his arms and stood in front of Akainu, shouting loudly.
"Hello? That guy..."
"Who…who?"
"What does he want to do?"
Coby's sudden action made everyone stunned and the CPU almost burned out.
?
Gel also frowned.
No?
Can you force yourself to show your face?
Could it be that this guy is really the son of the world's will? Must he be promoted to the position of admiral or even marshal? !
"Stop fighting! The war is over, the lives of the soldiers are the most important! There are still many injured soldiers waiting for treatment, don't let the soldiers make unnecessary sacrifices! They also have families waiting for them to return home!"
Under the gaze of the entire audience, Navy Warrior Coby loudly expressed his opinion.
Akainu's face turned pale and he said in a deep voice.
"Who are you? Do you know what you are talking about? How did a person like you who has a crooked mindset get recruited into the navy? Get out of here right now!"
Ahhh! I’m dying! I’m dying!
Faced with the angry admiral, Coby was so frightened that his legs went limp that he couldn't move.
"Hey, Sakaski..."
Aokiji remembered that he had seen this marine on Vice Admiral Garp's warship and was about to speak up to stop him, but Akainu's patience had reached its limit and he punched Coby directly in the head!
"The Navy doesn't need soldiers like you!"
"Well done! Young Marine, you're very... huh?"
"Qiang!"
A red-haired man who suddenly broke into the battlefield handsomely drew out his sword and prepared to block Akainu's fist, but unfortunately his rapier was blocked by a ten-meter-long sword midway.
"boom!"
Akainu's lava fist blasted out, instantly turning the brave marine into ashes.
