Chapter 818 Puzzled

...

Deep in the new world

A pirate ship with a red dragon head on its bow docked next to an unknown island.

"Goo-dong-gu-dong-gu-dong!"

In the temporary camp built on the beach, a middle-aged man with red hair was drinking with a group of crew members.

"Damn it! What on earth is that guy's purpose..."

Shanks was completely puzzled and could only pick up the huge wine gourd and take a few gulps!

Ever since he foolishly gave face to others on the battlefield at the top, he has been worried and unable to be happy.

"Ahem! If you can't figure it out, don't think about it for now. There are many things you can't figure out. Let me show you this. You will definitely be interested. However, this may be one more thing you can't figure out."

Ben Beckman slowly exhaled a puff of white smoke, then threw the newspaper in his hand over.

"Ah, this? Bucky!"

After reading the newspaper, Shanks jumped up and said excitedly while picking up the wine gourd.

"Hahahaha! It's really interesting!"

"Little ones, get ready to set sail!"

"Huh? Captain, what are you doing? Didn't we just stop to repair?"

Faced with the crew's questions, Shanks was not angry, but just smiled and said.

"Hahaha, what's the point of us drinking here by ourselves? Come with me to find an old friend for a few drinks!"

...

Navy Headquarters

Marshal's Office.

"boom!!"

A sound of angry slamming of the table was heard from the Den Den Mushi.

"What on earth do you mean! Marshal Jin! Are you going to openly disobey the orders of the World Government?"

"Hoo~!"

Looking at the Den Den Mushi talking excitedly on the table, Ajin just calmly took a puff of his cigar.

"Hmph! Five Elders, don't give me that!"

"I have made my point clear enough. It's not that I intend to stop him, but Huang Mu really needs more training. He is not qualified to be a general at this stage!"

As Jin spoke, he looked up at the Admiral candidate of the Marine Headquarters, Vice Admiral Aramaki, who was standing beside him with a fawning look on his face, and continued.

"Besides, isn't this also in compliance with our previous agreement? He failed the test, and I can only express my regret for that."

Huang Mu touched the back of his head which was still wrapped in bandages, smiled awkwardly and did not say anything against it. Ever since he was beaten up mercilessly, he had completely become a little fanboy of Marshal Jin.

(This phenomenon is often associated with masochistic personality disorder and Stockholm syndrome.)

"you!"

At first, Satan Sheng's angry scolding and heavy breathing were heard from the other end of the phone. After a while, a gentler voice continued.

"Marshal Jin, we did agree to this, but this is not because of any new changes in the situation..."

"None of us expected that this clown Buggy would so decisively announce his withdrawal from the Seven Warlords of the Sea, and couldn't wait to ascend to the throne of the Five Emperors! Now that the situation has developed to this point, it might be a good idea to send the fourth admiral of the navy earlier as a countermeasure! As for the considerations made before, we can relax them appropriately and give Aramaki another chance. We should act according to the circumstances!"

The words were flawless and gave the other party enough room to step down.

"Since the Five Elders have said so, fine! Then I'll give him another chance!"

"Haha, we are relieved that Marshal Jin can put the overall situation first!"

The white-bearded Five Elders stroked their beards proudly, and couldn't help but secretly glance at Saint Satan, thinking that how to control this unruly young man depends on themselves!

Before the Whitebeard Five Elders could show off for long, they heard the Den Den Mushi on the table continue.

"The test is very simple. All Aramaki needs to do is kill Buggy the Clown!"

"??"

The Whitebeard Five Elders were stunned at first, and then immediately joined Saint Satan's small spray team.

"Don't be too hard on us, Jin! Have we been giving you too much face?"

"Haha, give me face? No no no! Have you forgotten what you said again, Five Elders? You have never cared about the face of a Marine Admiral like me!"

"you!"

Ajin exhaled a puff of white smoke calmly and said with a smile.

"Haha! Since you all said that Huangmu is a countermeasure, then isn't it natural for me to ask him to have the ability to solve this problem?"

"Damn it! What kind of logic is this! It's complete nonsense!"

The Five Elders suddenly felt that they had underestimated this young man before. At least his mouth was definitely seriously underestimated!

"..."

"Crack!"

Due to Ajin's non-cooperation, the remote meeting was carried out very successfully. After a while, the Five Elders hung up the phone cursing. I don't know how many desks they will have to smash today to vent their anger.

"Hehehe, Marshal, please have some tea. After talking for so long, your mouth must be a little dry!"

As soon as Ajin put down the Den Den Mushi, Huangmu hurried over with a cup of water and said politely.

"Marshal Jin, please don't listen to the nonsense those five old men say!"

"I think the current situation is good enough. You were right before. If I want to be a navy admiral, I still need to calm down and settle down. Especially after fighting with you, Marshal, I realized that I still have many shortcomings that need to be improved!"

Huangmu's expression was serious, and he secretly complained in his heart, what a joke, wanting me to go to war with the Pirate King alone, this is called an assessment? Is this something a normal person can do?

"Oh? Don't you really want to be promoted to the general of the headquarters as soon as possible according to their wishes?"

Ajin took the cup of water and asked with a smile.

"Hehe, Marshal, you are joking. Why should I follow their wishes? If I remember correctly, only the admirals of the Navy Headquarters need to directly contact the Five Elders of the World Government! And I am only a vice admiral of the headquarters, so naturally I just have to obey your orders, Marshal of the Navy!"

Aramaki dumped the Five Elders without hesitation. He was not stupid. Now that he knew that the navy high-ranking officials and the World Government were not on good terms, even if he put aside his uncontrollable admiration for Marshal Jin, if he wanted to gain a foothold in the navy, he had to first show his firm stance!

Although it was the World Government that discovered my abilities and hired me as the Navy Admiral at an exceptionally high salary, this was at most a recognition and not even a favor. After all, with my strength at this level, I believe that no matter which force I choose to join, I will be valued and treated with due courtesy.

Thinking of this, Huang Mu could only say sorry to the five old men in his heart! I want to improve so much!
