The Beautiful Swordsman Came with a Barbecue
Chapter 661: Plan
Popular recommendation:
In a banquet hall in Pangu City, the senior navy and two retired old guys sat at the same table, and no one was seated on the surrounding tables.
Garp looked around and complained: "The world has changed, even the recruits who have been practicing on the old man's warship in the early years are eligible to participate in this dinner."
"Damn! Don't talk about it, so much food can't stop your mouth?"
He rolled his eyes, but the cold reception that the navy encountered today did make her uncomfortable, especially after the contrast after several consecutive high-standard treatments, made He miss Skyler extremely.
Thinking of Skyler, Crane smiled helplessly and shook his head. If Skyler was here at this time and saw this scene, he might have lifted the dining table in the banquet hall, and then smashed Pan Gucheng. .
It's just that it's obviously impossible to pursue those old guys, Garp and Warring States, two retired old guys, who can prevent others from undermining the navy, but they can't prevent others from alienating them.
Sakaski didn't care about this, or in other words, no one bothered, but it was the scene Sakaski looked forward to the most, so he was even more heartless than Karp enjoying the food at this time,
Of course, Green Cow was not affected at all, but he was not used to "meals". In his opinion, this way of ingesting nutrients was too inefficient.
If he wanted to open his mouth to eat, he would be too lazy to open his mouth unless there was a beautiful young lady to feed him. At this time, in the face of delicious wine and delicacies, he just separated a few blood-sucking vines from his body to "taste".
If it were four years ago, eight years ago, or even twelve years ago, there might be a young lady feeding him. After all, the status of the Navy at the World Conference was unprecedentedly high at that time.
It's a pity that it can't be done now. The navy's current status is low, even 24 years ago, when the navy's status was the lowest, the treatment at the World Conference was much higher than it is now.
After all, the navy didn't do anything before, it was just incompetence, but today's navy, but the revolt has already been revealed, and it is a potential enemy of the world government to say it badly.
It is impossible to demand the preferential treatment of the world government at this time.
At this time, Warring States also sighed and said, "Eat it, hurry up after eating, and if you stay like this, the old man wants to beat people too."
Hearing this, Zefa and Karp both nodded, but they seemed to agree on different points, and they all ate silently, and didn't mean to force a sense of existence.
Even before the representatives of the Allied countries participating in the World Conference arrived, the navy had eaten and left.
During the World Conference, the Navy has a station in Mary Joa, especially when the Navy had to serve as the World Conference **** in the past, the station's specifications were also very high.
It's just that when they came to the naval station under the somewhat reluctant guidance of the waiter, even Kizaru, who rarely loses his temper, knitted his brows tightly.
Where is the navy supposed to be stationed here? It is clearly the dormitory building of Mary Joa's waiter, there is no lobby, no function hall, and even many rooms are dormitories for six or even eight people.
Fortunately, the navy did not have an **** mission this time, and there were not many people brought in. It was just some members of the 26th Detachment led by Kizaru and some members of the Karp Detachment.
It's not really to the point where six people and eight people are squeezed into one room, but the attitude of the world government is completely in the navy mentality.
Of course, this residence must not have been deliberately arranged by the Five Old Stars. After all, no matter how stingy he is, he has not yet gotten to the point where he would stumble upon the Navy with such trivial matters.
What's more, it should be the choice of those in the world government. After all, the navy is not valued now and can be "oppressed" by them.
Even... As soon as Kizaru changed his mind, he thought of some World Government officials who might deliberately wear small shoes for the navy in order to make trouble for the navy.
Kizaru didn't say it. After all, when he saw the appearance of Warring States and Crane, he knew that the two had guessed it, but they didn't think it was worth mentioning.
Sakaski was constantly adjusting his inner emotions at this time, trying to squeeze out a smile, and said, "I remember when I first joined the Navy, the accommodation conditions were similar to here.
All of you are also from the military, even if today is... recalling bittersweetness. "
Warring States, whose face was gloomy and uncertain, smiled after hearing Sakaski's words, turned his head and said, "That's right, Sakaski, the progress is not small."
Zefa and Kizaru also looked at Sakaski in amazement. To be able to say such words is indeed not at the level that Sakaski should have, and the green bull was even more frenzied.
Crane and Fujitora seemed to understand something, so they just stood there and didn't speak. Sakaski was looked at like this, and he felt embarrassed first, scratched his temples, and said:
"Ahaha~ This is the content of the speech that Lieutenant General Skyler helped me write. I just misappropriated it."
Hearing Sakaski's laughter and the words behind him, Kizaru retracted his surprised gaze, and at the same time thought of his fellow villager, how come his behavior is getting closer and closer to those **** of the older generation?
At this time, the Warring States did not withdraw his approving gaze, but nodded more approvingly and said, "Then you also learned the spirit of it, not the text."
After finishing speaking, Warring States looked at the other people and said, "Okay, since our marshal has said so, then everyone should stop complaining, remembering bittersweet... This is really good.
The navy has been in the navy for a long time, and it is easy to get away from the original intention and the masses. The old man has not lived with the people for nearly 50 years, and he has forgotten the fatigue of the recruit period.
Take it as an opportunity for us, especially Araki, you just joined the navy, you should have to sleep in a multi-person dormitory, and today is considered an experience. "
After Warring States finished speaking with a smile, Lu Niu nodded, even if he was not a genius known for his intelligence, he could still hear that Warring States was joking to ease the atmosphere.
As for Fujitora... The reason why Sengoku didn't say anything about him was because he was placed there because of his age, not a young man like Lu Niu, and he had also been with the Zhanye Detachment for many years.
Coupled with his character, Sengoku felt that if he didn't speak up, Fujitora would take the initiative to solve the green bull. Among the three generals, the most experienced and prudent is probably the recruit Fujitora.
Everyone nodded at this time, but Kizaru and Karp turned their heads at the same time. Before the two rested, they had to instruct their detachment members, after all, they were officers.
But just as they turned around, they saw a majestic old man walking up the stairs. The old man shook his hand, as if there were some stains on it, and then looked at Garp and Kizaru who were looking at him, and said:
"Hey, it doesn't look like you guys are angry. Why did the old man hear that you ran away in anger as soon as you got to the banquet hall? Also, who arranged this station?"
Seeing the old leader coming over, Garp smiled and said, "Marshal Kong!"
"Don't be a marshal or a marshal. Now that the Warring States period has retired, you still miss the passionate years when the old man was in power?"
Sora walked over with a smile, looked at Sakaski and asked, "Are you really not angry?"
Sakaski shook his head and said, "There's nothing to be angry about, it's just that the bed is shorter and there aren't many people, so it's alright to put the bed together."
Hearing that Sakaski was actually discussing the issue of accommodation seriously, Sora was a little dumbfounded. The newly appointed marshal really highlighted one thing.
"It's fine if you don't get angry." Kong Ye didn't correct it, but said along the way: "I really didn't know about this arrangement in advance, this is the old man's dereliction of duty, tomorrow the old man will supervise it and try to let you all move out as soon as possible.
By the way, the old man is here, there is one more thing. "
Sora said, looked around, and seemed to want to find a place to sit down, but in addition to the dormitory, this building only has corridors, and there is no functional room like a living room at all.
Shaking his head, Sora said, "Go to the old man's office, there are some serious things to talk about."
Sakaski also nodded when he heard the words. After all, it was really early, it was far from the time to rest, and since it was business, he naturally couldn't refuse.
Seeing Sakaski, the others nodded and did not refuse. They followed Sora's footsteps and walked down the dormitory. Kiabou followed behind, looking at the backs of the three of the Warring States Period, and then at Sora's backs. , I don't know what I'm thinking.
The accommodation building is quite far from Kong Kong's office, and Kong has no idea of talking about business on the road, but just discussed what happened not long ago.
However, regarding the killing of the Tianlong people, there was only one voice left in the navy, and when he heard the firmness of Sakaski and others, Sora couldn't say anything.
After coming to the empty office, everyone found that there was already someone in the office. Lu Qi was sitting in the empty office. When he saw the empty office, he also stood up and saluted.
Seeing Lu Qi, there was nothing unusual about Sakaski and the others, but the three people in the Warring States period frowned, and Karp asked angrily: "Is it the child who complained?"
Saying that, Garp stared at Lu Qi. Lu Qi was the first agent who had not been beaten by him after serving as CP0 in 38 years. Garp was thinking about whether to make up for it.
But this idea just flashed in Garp's mind, not to save face, nor to dare to cause trouble, but... his grandson Luffy has already completed the task for his grandfather.
Two years ago, Lu Qi had already been defeated by Luffy, and rounding it up, it was equivalent to him being beaten by Garp.
Lu Qi was a little uncomfortable being stared at by Garp, and when he saw the eyes of Warring States and Zefa, he reacted in his heart, maybe Garp, the veterans who stayed behind in Marin Vadod, didn't know his identity.
However, Lu Qi didn't mean to explain. After all, he worked for Skyler, not the Navy. He was too lazy to pay attention to the attitude of the rest of the Navy towards him.
Sora also waved his hand and said, "I misunderstood, Lu Qi is a good boy."
The empty words just fell, and the others didn't respond yet, but Lu Qi's mouth twitched first. When can a CP agent full of evil be called a good boy?
To this question, Sora quickly answered: "He was arranged by Skyler. Today, you are on the road, and the conflict between you and Mary Joa, the old man has also understood, it is indeed not Lu Qi's idea."
Hearing that Lu Qi was arranged by Skyler, Zefa frowned and began to examine the young man in front of him. After all, although his student's vision was good, there were times when he was wrong.
Skyler brought reliable men like Jinbei, Brook, and Fujitora to the navy, but also unreliable young men like Enilu.
Especially when he saw that Lu Qi was younger than Anilu, Zefa's attitude of scrutiny became stricter. After scrutinizing it around, Zefa withdrew his eyes.
The young man Lu Qi, at least in terms of his manners, is much better than the sloppy Anilu. Although he does not have the righteousness of the navy, he is not as annoying as other CP agents.
Warring States was also slightly surprised, and subconsciously looked at the crane and the yellow monkey, seeing the two people without the slightest surprise, suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.
He entrusted many tasks and ideas to these two people, but he didn't expect that he had just left the navy, and he had so many "estrangements" with the navy.
You must know that he is a retired marshal. No one thought about explaining to him that such an important thing happened.
"Ahaha~"
Garp didn't have so much grief, he patted Lu Qi's shoulder with a smile. The "thin" Lu Qi, under Garp's iron hand, was actually motionless, which made Garp nodded approvingly and said:
"Young man, that's right. The old man felt that, no matter how rash the old man's grandson was, he would never do something like destroying the Judicial Island. It must have been arranged by Skyler, right? Hahaha~ as expected of the old husband's daughter."
Kizaru raised his brows, wanting to say that Lu Qi had not followed Skyler at that time, but he noticed that Lu Qi did not reveal the slightest denial, which made him very puzzled.
When exactly Lu Qi was turned against by Skyler, he and Sakaski had guessed at that time, and concluded that it was after the Judiciary Island, but that was just speculation.
But now this small detail revealed by Lu Qi makes Kizaru feel that his guess is not so accurate.
Kong clapped his hands to attract the attention of everyone with different ideas, and then said: "Everyone is here, sit down and talk, Lu Qi, tell them everything you told the old man."
While the air was talking, everyone in the navy also took their seats. They were not too cautious, and Sengoku and Garp directly started rummaging through the boxes, looking for food and drink.
Seeing this scene, Sora didn't stop them. After all, he had so much tea that he couldn't finish it. The other departments of the world government and the envoys of the allied countries were giving him gifts every year.
Even sometimes, there will be some Tianlong people who will send people some gifts. Although most of the Tianlong people are materialistic, there are also a small number of Tianlong people who still know the world.
Soon, Warring States and Karp found satisfactory tea leaves, and started to boil water without any scruples, Lu Qi also said: "It's mainly two things, one is about CP, and the other is about CP. A member of the world government.”
Lu Qi paused, nodding when he saw several people, obviously listening carefully, as for Sengoku and Karp who were not serious... They retired and had no influence at all, so they continued:
"First of all, it's about the CP. Tomorrow, the CP will propose the purchase of Wano's arms..."
Lu Qi looked at Sakaski and said: "This matter was discussed with Lieutenant General Skyler before, and she should have informed you as well, but some details were not fully confirmed at the time, so it was not explained.
Tomorrow, CP will propose to purchase Wano Arms on the grounds of strengthening the military power of the Resistance Revolutionary Army in the countries that join the world government. This proposal is included in the CP proposal.
It's just that the time originally proposed is not tomorrow, and in order to overthrow me, they also moved this matter forward to tomorrow, and a proposal may be launched along with the attack on the navy.
But I hope that your opposition will only stop at words, and in essence, will prevent the implementation of this motion. "
After Lu Qi finished speaking, Sakaski nodded. Skyler and Nurkic had explained this to him before.
When the deal between the world government and Wano country is reached, and when the gold belongs to the navy, the ships belong to the navy, and the arms belong to the navy, it is naturally impossible for Sakaski to refuse.
The Warring States looked up and wanted to say something, but seeing the reaction of Sakaski and others, the Warring States knew that perhaps Sakaski knew about this a long time ago, and even the follow-up plan was done.
As a former marshal, although he has enough status, there is no need to arrogate at this time.
Seeing that there was no objection, Lu Qi nodded and continued: "The next thing is the second thing, about the countries that join the World Government.
In fact, it's not quite accurate to say that. More accurately, it should be the issue of the special sponsorship of the next four years of gold and military operations, or more directly, the issue of the distribution of new military expenditures.
The revolutionary army, the pirates, and the Shichibukai who have regained their bounty all need a lot of Bailey to restrain them. Before the incident of Lieutenant General Skyler's beheading of the Tianlong people, the money should belong to your navy.
But now the situation has changed, your navy will not be able to get this money. "
"You mean, do you CP want this money?"
Sakaski asked, but Lu Qi shook his head and said, "No, CP doesn't have enough body to digest this money.
If your navy can't get it, and our CP can't get it in full, then most of the new military spending will still enter the world government's finances, but Lieutenant General Skyler will not allow this to happen.
Therefore, there must be a new funding gap, so that the money can be digested in full. "
After Lu Qi finished speaking, Sakasky raised his brows. He didn't know how to prevent this money from being planned by the World Government to the financial side when the Navy couldn't get it and CP couldn't digest it.
Warring States, who was pouring tea, raised his head, looked at Sora, and said, "Commander Sora, that's why you asked me to bring a pacifist, right?"
Sora nodded, but did not answer, but pointed to Lu Qi and asked him to answer the question, and Lu Qi also nodded and said:
"Yes. After the Five Old Stars proposed that the World Government member countries increase the investment of the heavenly gold and military special funds, Alabasta, Dressrosa and the Dragon Palace Kingdom will take the lead in agreeing.
At the same time, it will also bring up a question, that is, how to spend the money, so the navy should cooperate with me and oppose letting the money belong to the CP, but lead to pacifists. "
Lu Qi said, took the tea handed by Warring States, took a sip and put it down, then said: "According to my assessment, it is impossible for the Five Old Stars to decide on the spot to decide the flow of funds.
The biggest possibility is that the Five Old Stars summoned the Air Commander and me to discuss the value of pacifists. Among them, I would attack the "loyalty" of the navy.
Let Wu Laoxing realize that pacifists can replace many roles of the navy, such as clearing pirates, dealing with the abolished Shichibukai, and strengthening the control of the sea.
For a seemingly exorbitant fee, you can almost buy out the power to replace the navy. As long as your test report on the pacifist is beautiful enough, I believe the Five Old Stars will pay for it. "
Sora also nodded at this time and said, "I have read the report, and it was done beautifully, so don't worry that the Five Old Stars will not agree.
You should have also understood that Skyler intends to let the Five Old Stars continue to pay attention to the navy by clearing the world government's cash.
As for the pacifist thing, we only need to wait until after Dr. Bergapunk invests more in the pacifist project in the world government, and Dr. Bergapunk proposes the defects of the pacifist, and it cannot be put into use as scheduled, and the Five Old Stars will not be used. Do not continue to rely on your navy. "
Sakaski nodded at this time, with a look of sudden realization on his face, and finally understood the whole thing~lightnovelpub.net~ and felt guilty again for questioning Skyler's inaction.
Lieutenant Admiral Skyler just didn't publicize everything she did. She didn't forget her commitment to herself and to the Navy.
And if things really went as smoothly as Lu Qi said, after half a month with what Kizaru said, the revolutionary army would attack Mary Joa, and the navy might really be able to hold it.
Even if the pacifists cannot be put into use and the CP is understaffed, in order to restore the loyalty of the navy, it is not necessarily that more concessions will be given.
Perhaps... Sakaski suddenly thought that Skyler planned to let the Revolutionary Army attack Mary Joa after half a month, not to vent his anger, but to...
Re-enact the Valley of the Gods event!
Why did Garp suddenly become a naval hero who would not be punished too much by beating and scolding Tianlong people? Isn't the reason precisely because in the Valley of the Gods incident, he defeated Lox, the overlord of the sea, and saved a large number of Tianlong people?
In terms of influence, today's revolutionary army is even worse than the Rocks Pirates of the past. If the navy can turn the tide after the revolutionary army makes a big incident, maybe it will really regain the world. Government's trust.
That is... Sakaski understood that he knew too little about Skyler's plan, and could only passively follow the route set by Skyler. The opaque feeling always made him worry about gains and losses.
In addition, Sakaski always felt that if things developed as he thought at this time, there would be some peace of mind, but he felt that Lieutenant General Skyler was not that kind of person.
'What is the real plan? Lieutenant General Skyler? ’
Sakaski thought.
