Chapter 22 Opening on the Top (Ch 22)

Kizaru landed beside Akainu and glanced at him: “Such a high-profile return is not like your style.”
“Heh, Marshal Zhan Guo also asked you to do this, right?”
“Ah, yes, it’s really troublesome. I originally wanted to come in on the warship with that kid Zhan Taomaru,” Kizaru complained.
Akainu’s tone remained indifferent: “But it’s very effective, isn’t it? Look, everyone’s enthusiasm has been mobilized. We are the admirals, and we should stand up and set an example.”
“That’s you, Sakaski,” Kizaru shrugged and took out an orange from somewhere, “Your loyalty to the navy is something I can’t even compare to!”
“We are soldiers!” Akainu said in a cold tone. What he hated most was Borsalino’s lazy attitude.
If this guy and Kuzan could be more proactive, they could definitely push the navy’s power into the New World and eliminate more pirates!
Instead of being blocked at the door of the new world as it is now, only small forces can be dispersed over there, and it is impossible to protect too many places.
“Look at you, you’re in a hurry again,” Kizaru said slowly, splitting the orange in his hand in half and handing it over, “Do you want to eat it?”
“I don’t want to eat!” Akainu snorted coldly and quickened his pace towards the marshal’s office.
He also had to find out why they suddenly called him back yesterday and then said they didn’t need him anymore.
What happened at the Navy Headquarters?
Seeing this, Kizaru had no choice but to follow.
Soon, the two learned about Zhu Mang’s existence from Zhan Guo, and their expressions became somewhat excited.
“This is a real monster, so scary,” Kizaru commented.
Akainu looked at Aokiji. Apart from Crane, he was the only one present who had truly experienced that man’s power.
Although He is highly respected, he is still slightly lacking in strength.
In comparison, he trusted Aokiji’s judgment more.
Although he and Aokiji have different political views, he fully recognizes the other’s strength.
Aokiji commented: “If his strength is as terrifying as his aura, killing me will probably not be any more difficult than it would be for us to deal with an ordinary pirate.”
Akainu and Kizaru’s expressions became increasingly serious.
This statement is enough to explain it all.
If they want to kill an ordinary pirate, it will be a quick kill.
So, they were killed by this “Gebinz” instantly!
“What is his origin?” Akainu asked in a deep voice.
“No trace can be found,” said Sengoku. “General Kong has sent out all the intelligence department personnel to analyze and track Doflamingo’s movements. Maybe there will be results in a while.”
“What does the Admiral plan to do with him? He can’t possibly join the navy?” Akainu asked.
“Are you afraid, Sakaski, that he will take your place after he comes?” Kizaru teased.
Because Zhan Guo is now 77 years old and it is only a few years before he retires.
So even though it hasn’t been made clear yet, there have already been some disturbances within the navy.
It is no secret that Akainu intends to succeed the admiral.
“Humph!” Akainu glared at him and snorted, “If he really joins the navy, what if I give him my position? But you know what’s above us. If he sees those things, can he accept them?”
Zhan Guo and others were all silent.
Those present were the marshal, the chief of staff and the admiral. They could be said to be the ones in the navy who were most aware of the dirty existence of the Celestial Dragons.
However, what can they do for the sake of naval expenditures and to maintain basic stability in the ocean?
“I don’t think he’s willing to join the navy,” Kizaru quickly flipped through the documents on the table and sat down on the sofa, “Just look at his spending. How can he be interested in the navy’s low salary?”
“Why, do you think your salary is too low and want a raise?”
“Hehe, it would be good if you could add some more,” Kizaru said with a laugh.
“Borsalino!” Akainu growled, “Put away your lazy look! You are the general, set a good example for the whole army!”
“Yes, yes, Admiral Akainu, Admiral Sakazaki~~”
Akainu’s face was as gloomy as an angry volcano that was about to erupt.
“Shut up, everyone!” Zhan Guo used the majesty of a marshal to suppress the tension between the two men. Naturally, he also admired Sakaski’s extreme self-discipline. This was what a soldier should be like.
But the strong have their own strong personalities.
This is the case with Borsalino and Kuzan. If Sakaski interferes with them too much, it will only backfire.
Therefore, he was very worried that if he stepped down, the navy would be taken over by the radical Sakaski and would fall apart.
In comparison, he would rather have the more peaceful Aokiji Kuzan succeed him as the marshal, so that he could neutralize Sakaski’s violent temper and tolerate Borsalino’s lazy attitude – after all, he himself was lazy too.
Only with such a smooth handover can the Navy move to a higher level after this war, instead of falling into a period of decline due to the Marshal dispute and losing the great opportunity to annihilate the Whitebeard Pirates.
Of course, all this must be done after completely wiping out the Whitebeard Pirates and crushing the arrogance of all pirates.
“Let’s not worry about Gubinz for now. I have already made a deal with him. He promised to help us once in tomorrow’s battle. What we need to do now is to discuss and make some adjustments to the original plan and keep all the pirates!” Sengoku said firmly.
Hearing what Sengoku said, a gleam of light flashed in Akainu’s eyes.
Zhan Guo’s words directly hit his G-spot.
Leave all the pirates behind!
He loves doing this kind of thing!
Afterwards, several people walked out of the marshal’s office and came to the navy conference room.
The conference room was already filled with naval vice admirals, waiting for the arrival of these top fighters.
“Hold a meeting!” Zhan Guo’s eyes fell on an empty chair. After a pause, he looked too high and yelled.
—————–
The next day.
early morning.
In the square of Marinford, while the giant granite tiles were still emitting a hint of salty moisture, a hundred thousand naval soldiers were already standing there fully armed.
The white air they exhaled gathered together and even formed clouds faintly above Marinford.
At this moment, they gathered together like the water vapor in the cloud.
Everyone is united!
The major general from the New World clenched the hilt of the knife, and the sharkskin straps were stained with dark spots due to nervous cold sweat.
The sharpshooters transferred from all over the world were repeatedly wiping the flintlock rifles in their hands and adjusting the position of the ammunition bags they carried with them.
A tall execution platform has been built in the most central area of ​​the square. In the shadow below the platform, three tall figures wearing cloaks of justice are sitting on horseback.
“What a fucking show-off!” Doflamingo, who was standing nearby like a minion, couldn’t help but twitch his mouth when he heard the comments from Lord Gubinz beside him.
