Chapter 111 Dragon’s Decision! (Ch 111)

Marine Headquarters, Marineford.
At this moment in Dorag’s office, this guy was lying on the table writing something.
Upon closer inspection, it seems to be a ‘resignation report’.
Fortunately, Garp has followed the Marshal to the New World, otherwise he would have discovered that Dragon was writing this thing.
I guess I could slap him in the face with the sole of my shoe.
In the past six months or so, Dorag has not changed at all.
He increasingly felt that the navy was different from the future he had imagined, and it could even be said that they were a stranger.
The longer I stayed in the Navy, the more uncomfortable I felt.
Although he has not found his direction yet, Drago has decided to resign from his position as Vice Admiral of the Marine Headquarters.
He planned to go out to sea as an “adventurer” to see if he could discover something by changing his stance and perspective.
After finishing the “resignation report” in his hand, Dorag looked at it again.
A helpless smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He knew that he could not send out this resignation report.
Because once it is sent out, it will definitely be rejected by the big guys above.
By then, it won’t be so easy for him to leave the navy.
Dorag also knew what he meant to the navy.
The son of a naval hero, the most promising vice admiral…
If a person like him suddenly says he wants to quit, there’s no way the higher-ups will agree. They might even call his father back to do some ideological work on him.
Therefore, Dorag’s plan was to write a resignation letter himself and stay in the office.
Then he found an excuse to leave Marineford and never came back.
When they want to find me, they may be able to see this resignation report, and then they will know what decision I, Dorag, have made.
Just as Dorag was thinking about these things, there was a sudden knock on his door.
Before he could react, the door was pushed open.
Then Gion’s tall and beautiful figure walked in. Scared Dorager, he quickly covered the resignation letter in his hand and put it in the drawer.
“What are you writing? So sneaky?” Gion asked curiously.
Dorag said helplessly, “Sister, could you please wait for me to respond before pushing the door next time?”
“Hahahaha, aren’t we good friends? What were you writing just now? A love letter? Have you, Drago, also come to your senses? Which girl in our navy have you taken a fancy to? Do you want me to mediate for you?” Gion teased with a smile.
Dorag curled his lips and pretended to be nonchalant, “Whom should I write the love letter to? Can I still tell you? If I ask you to mess it up again…”
Gion was just joking with him and didn’t really want to get to the bottom of it, which would be inappropriate.
Therefore, she did not care so much. She sat on the sofa in the office, poured herself a cup of tea, and asked, “Vice Admiral Garp went to the New World this time, why don’t you go? Maybe something big will happen. By then, you will make some contributions and you may be promoted to the candidate for admiral.”
Although there is no explicit news, there have been related rumors within the navy, saying that the reason why Vice Admiral Garp has not been promoted to admiral is perhaps to pave the way for Dragon.
Of course, this is just a rumor. Dragon is indeed very good, but as an admiral… his strength and prestige are still far behind.
That’s why Gion teased him, asking him to accomplish more meritorious deeds and become a candidate for admiral as soon as possible. By then, when the time was right, it would not be impossible for him to become a navy admiral in one fell swoop.
Dorag smiled, waved his hand and said, “Forget it. I have no interest in the candidate for general, and I don’t have any idea about the position of general.”
Gion looked at Dragon strangely, smacked his lips and said, “Should I say you are worthy of being Vice Admiral Garp’s son? You look exactly like him.”
Dorag thought, I’m about to ‘escape’ from the navy, why should I care about this?
But he didn’t say much, and asked with a smile: “What about you? Why didn’t you go to the New World? I see Kuzan and Borsalino are going. If Sakaski’s injury hadn’t healed yet, he wouldn’t have missed it. Could it be that you saw that Kaji stayed in the headquarters, so you want to stay too?”
When Gion heard Kake’s name, he frowned in displeasure and said, “Who wants to stay with him, that bastard…”
After cursing a few times, Gion shook his head and said, “If Shiki starts causing trouble in the New World and the situation escalates, Zephyr might also go to the New World. Then, by then, no one will be watching the Sabaody Archipelago…”
After hearing what Gion said, Dorag was stunned for a moment, then he said in disbelief: “How big is your grudge against Orgrim? Why do you hold such a grudge against him?”
What is there to watch on the Sabaody Archipelago? Isn’t it just the Warhammer Pirates of Orgrim? We should deal with them in time. Even if we can’t defeat them, we should delay their progress and preferably destroy their ships.
Gion believed that he was capable of preventing them from being coated and going to the new world.
As long as we harass them a few more times, when the situation in the New World stabilizes and the generals return, Orgrim will still be blocked in the first half of the Grand Line.
Gion listened to Dragon’s questions and recalled the scene in the Seven Water City where he was pinned to the ground and beaten by Orgrim.
She was so angry that her teeth itched and she couldn’t help but say, “Irreconcilable hatred!”
As one of the parties involved in the Seven Water City, Dorag was fully involved in the feud between Gion and Orgrim, so he shook his head with some emotion and said: “You women are so petty, you can’t afford to offend them.”
“So don’t provoke me. If I hold a grudge against you, you’re doomed.” Gion said with a smile.
The two then chatted about other things.
As if he had thought of something, Dorag asked, “What do you think of our navy?”
Gion was stunned for a moment, then said without hesitation: “The navy is the representative of justice on the sea. We should uphold justice and fight against evil. What’s wrong?”
“Nothing, just asking…” Dorag smiled, and after a slight pause, he seemed hesitant, but still asked: “Then do you think this justice… conforms to the justice in your heart?”
As soon as he finished speaking, Gion looked at Dragon with a strange look, as if this guy was hiding something from his words.
But I can’t feel what’s wrong.
After thinking carefully, Gion picked up the teacup and took a sip, muttering: “Sometimes… it really makes people feel uncomfortable.”
Dorag’s eyes lit up, but he quickly suppressed his interest.
“Yes, there are still many things that need to be changed in the Navy. Justice is also changing with time, isn’t it?” Dorag whispered softly.
“Hearing you say that, it seems to make sense.” Gion said with a smile.
Afterwards, the two did not talk about these things anymore, but Dorag had another thought.
He admired Gion very much. She was capable and not pedantic. After testing her a little today, he found that she was not blindly loyal to the World Government.
“Maybe if I really want to do something big in the future, I can invite Gion to join me?” Dorag thought to himself, stroking his chin.
But soon, he shook his head and smiled. Why should he invite Gion? Gion is a promising new star in the navy.
Sitting here with Dorag, it’s just an occasional interaction between friends.
After Gion finished his tea, he stood up casually and said, “Okay, nothing else, I’ll go first. I’ll go find Master Zefa to give me some pointers, so that I don’t have to face that damn Orgrim… I can’t give him a hard time.”
“Haha, I wish you good luck in martial arts.” Dorag also said with a smile.
After Gion left, Dorag looked around his office. After a long moment, he murmured softly, “Isn’t it time for me to leave too?”
