"Okay, I understand, it means opening the gate to relieve pressure once a month, right? I understand, Marshal of the Warring States Period, goodbye."

G-5 branch, aboard the Zhanye detachment warship that was ordered to return to the branch, Skyler took the phone bug and asked for an explanation from Sengoku. At this time, nearly a month had passed since she returned to G-5.

No pirate group can pass through the G-5 branch sea area where Skyler and Zhan Ye's detachment are located, and even the number of pirate groups that can break through is getting smaller and smaller, which makes Skyler quite proud.

However, Seng Guo called her and asked her to withdraw her team. Skyler wanted to refute, but Seng Guo hung up the phone directly, leaving her with nowhere to vent her anger.

A whole day passed before Sengoku called and explained that it was because Fishman Island was about to be taken over by pirates.

The reason why the pirates occupy Fish-Man Island is very simple, that is, since they can't get through to the New World, they can wait on Fish-Man Island until you, Skyler, take a vacation, and then they can break through again.

Faced with the increasing numbers, King Neptune and Haku were unable to face it. After all, if the Ryugu Kingdom really had enough strength, it would not need to have good relations with the World Government's participating countries or the navy.

The current situation is to make the pirates gathered on Fish-Man Island understand that staying on Fish-Man Island is not the optimal solution.

Therefore, the Navy made two moves. The first step was a joint exercise between the Navy and the Ryugu Kingdom. It happened that the graduation examination of the new recruits was coming to an end, so Zefa led the team to clean up the pirates on Fish-Man Island.

Another step is to let the pirates know that Skyler... will take a rest. Although the early effect is not great, if it takes a few months to let the pirates know that Zhanye Detachment

There are a few days every month when we don’t cruise.

Although it sounds strange, this is the requirement of the Warring States Period. After all, the navy cannot be stationed on Fishman Island for a long time. After all, the Ryugu Kingdom is a country certified by the world government with independent sovereignty.

The navy can occasionally help the Ryugu Kingdom, but it can never be stationed for a long time, unless King Neptune asks the World Government for help, but if he really asks for help, then not only the navy will come back.

The Warring States Period would not allow those who were traveling with them to invade the territory of the Ryugu Kingdom, a naval ally, so he came up with these two moves, even if it would allow some pirates to enter the new world.

Just considering the gain and loss of interests, the Warring States Period had to make this choice.

In the first two to three months, or even in the first half of the year, the repairs of the Zhanye detachment will not affect the pirates' actions, but as long as this period of time passes, the pirates will know when it is time to leave Fish-Man Island.

After all, if you really stick to Fish-Man Island and don't leave, people from the Navy Headquarters will come. If you venture out to sea, you will encounter the four detachments G1-G4, as well as the big devils of Skyler and Zhanye detachment.

The first four branches actually have blind spots, so they can go around them. But in the G-5 branch sea area, if Skyler doesn't give them a chance, they really have no chance.

Therefore, the Zhanye detachment must repair regularly to let the pirates understand that the few days Skyler and the Zhanye detachment spend repairing are their only chance to enter the new world.

Once such a habit is formed, Fish-Man Island can also breathe a sigh of relief. Fish-Man Island will only become a transit point for pirates at most. If the number is not large and they don't want to deliberately cause trouble, then Haku and Ryugu Kingdom can still cope with it.

of.

After hanging up the phone, Nurkic looked at Skyler and said: "Sir, this is actually quite good. After all, our team's holidays are always short and concentrated, and the team members don't get enough rest..."

"I already understand it clearly. Just make a plan and follow it. Do I look like the kind of person who wants to fight pirates every day?"

'picture!'

Nurkic cursed in his heart, but still nodded and turned around to make arrangements, but Skyler stopped him and said: "In three days, after the graduation assessment is over, a newcomer will come to report alone."

Nurkic thought about it, nodded, and said: "You told me, is it that Vergo? Do you need to make any arrangements?"

"Well, if he sets out in three days, then when he arrives at the sea area, we should still be on vacation, but the lookout and reconnaissance work cannot stop. Once he is found entering the G-5 branch sea area, notify me immediately."

After Skyler finished speaking, Nurkic nodded and didn't ask any more questions. After all, Nurkic had to pay attention to the talents that the department could personally recommend.

He turned around to make arrangements. The Zhanye detachment, which had been waiting on the warship for a whole day, was finally disbanded. Of course, the lookouts did not rest, but went to work with the lookouts on duty in the branch.

Five days passed in a flash, and this was the last day for the Zhanye detachment to repair, and it was also... the first day Vergo entered the G-5 sea area. Skyler and Nurkic in the training ground looked at the lookouts running towards them.

, looked at each other.

"Report! Captain Vergo of the Navy Headquarters has entered the waters of the G-5 branch. Please give instructions."

After the lookout finished speaking, he looked at Skyler. Skyler looked at the harbor in the distance and said: "Thank you for your hard work, Nurkic. You can check the intelligence with the lookout, and then... It's the last day of the vacation, have a good rest."

.”

Hearing Skyler's words, the lookout nodded. Nurkic and the lookout went to the observation tower to learn more details. Skyler came to the port and asked the navy on duty to prepare a small ship.

When Nurkic arrived, the boat was also ready. Skyler looked at Nurkic and asked: "Did you let the lookout have a rest?"

Nurkic nodded and said: "Sir, it has been arranged, but I think..."

"It's okay. They need to rest too. You can sail the boat and we'll go find Virgo."

Skyler waved his hand, and after speaking, he jumped onto the deck of the boat. Nurjic paused for a moment, and without saying much, jumped onto the boat. He suddenly felt that something was wrong with Skyler's mood today.

Could it be that you haven't been able to perform the task for too long and are a little angry?

There were constant thoughts in his mind, but Nurkic didn't think about the worst. It wasn't that he couldn't think of it, it was just that he didn't think about it that way.

Because it was a small boat specially ordered to be prepared, even if Nurkic was busy alone, the boat slowly left the port and headed in the direction from which Vergo came.

The boat sailed on the sea for a long time, and Nurkic's movements gradually changed from unfamiliar to skillful. For him, he needs to learn a skill. If he does not consider specialization and study, it will be very fast.

Therefore, although he changed from a commander to an executor, Nurkic quickly adapted to it. Finally, he saw a small boat on the sea in the distance.

He picked up the binoculars and looked at it, confirming that it was Vergo's boat. Nurkic was a little confused about Vergo coming alone, but it was much easier to understand when he thought that it was his superior's idea.

Nurkic put down the binoculars and said to Skyler, who had done nothing after boarding the boat and was playing a newspaper spelling game there: "Sir, we found Virgo, shall we come up and say hello?"

"Come forward, but it's not to say hello."

Skyler put away the newspaper and stood up. Hearing this, Nurkic asked curiously: "That is?"

"You go and kill him."

"Gulu~"

Just as Skyler finished speaking, he heard the sound of Nurkic swallowing. He turned his head and looked over. Nurkic showed resistance and said: "Sir! You can't make such a joke.

I know that this Vergo is very likely to become the base commander of the G-5 detachment, but we are a garrisoned detachment, and the G-5 detachment will have an official base commander sooner or later.

Although you are now fulfilling your duties as branch base commander, you are still essentially the commander of the Zhanye detachment! We can’t kill him just because he might take your position as G-5 branch base commander!”

Hearing this, Skyler twitched the corners of his mouth and said, "What on earth are you thinking about?"

"Um...Sir, is there something hidden that I don't know about?"

Nurkic asked cautiously. After all, Skyler's attitude was a bit abnormal. If it was a complete misunderstanding, Skyler should have started to hit him by now.

If it's completely true, then Skyler shouldn't have this attitude. Therefore, after thinking about it, there should be some hidden secret or some misunderstanding.

Skyler sighed, waved his hand, and said: "Forget it, you will be watching from the side later. When you think it is time to take action, you will take action. If you feel it is not time to take action, there is no need to be dirty."

own hands."

"Sir! As long as you give the order!"

"Measure yourself, this is your task."

"Yes! Sir!"

While talking, the two boats had already met. The moment Virgo on the other boat saw Skyler and Nurkic, he quickly furled the sails, dropped the anchor, and then saluted and said:

"Lieutenant General Skyler! Lieutenant Colonel Nurkic!"

Although Vergo's military rank when he graduated was a colonel, which was higher than Nurkic's, on the one hand, he took advantage of the special recruitment treatment of this class, and on the other hand... before Nurkic, fighting was really not his strength.

.

The Navy is very simple in determining military ranks for new recruits, that is, giving priority to strength. For example, if you only have the strength of a lieutenant colonel, you will never be awarded the rank of colonel.

After you have enough strength, you can then consider other things, such as civilian abilities and other special abilities. If your civilian abilities are too poor and you have no other strengths, your military rank will be lowered.

Therefore, Nurkic, who only had the combat capability of a lieutenant when he graduated that year, could only obtain the rank of lieutenant no matter how strong his other abilities were. As for now... his status as adjutant limits his military rank.

But for Nurkic, whose military rank was inferior to his own, Vergo still chose to salute. This shows that he has set his attitude very low, at least as a "backward".

Seeing Vergo's attitude, Nurkic nodded. He admired this kind of humble person, even though such good qualities are now almost invisible in the Zhanye detachment.

Including himself, he was gradually transformed, but he still appreciated what should be appreciated.

Even Nurkic began to think again that if there was any misunderstanding between Skyler and Vergo, he might be able to act as a middleman and mediate for them.

But Skyler did not give Vergo a good look, but said bluntly: "How long have you not been in contact with Doflamingo?"

"???!!!"

The expressions of Vergo and Nurkic changed slightly, but both of them had extremely deep expression management skills, so they adjusted back in just a moment.

Vergo also showed a trace of confusion and asked: "Doflamingo? Is he that pirate from the South China Sea? Lieutenant General Skyler, how do I know him?"

Vergo even mistook Doflamingo's location, as if he was trying his best to get rid of the fact that he knew Doflamingo.

Nurkic also reacted at this time. No wonder...he looked at Vergo with scrutiny. Under the influence of subjective emotions, Nurkic discovered many strange things about Vergo.

The first is the appearance. Vergo's current appearance is very unsuitable for him. Although the aesthetics are tolerant, Vergo is more like... a polarizing treatment.

The details of the hair, beard, and clothing are all too fitting. Even Nurkic, who comes from a third-generation navy family, is not so..."obedient".

A person's identity can be distinguished from some details, and Vergo obviously knew that, so he made all his details closer to the details that a qualified navy should have.

However, people have their own personalities, and the statistical characteristics of a good navy do not all fit together to make a good navy.

For example, Nurkic's own boss, Lieutenant General Skyler, has a lot of problems. If Skyler returns to the Navy boot camp now, he may be kicked out before the first day is over.

Because Skyler already has too many unique characteristics that are not allowed within the group. If there are few such characteristics, it can be called a thorn. If there are many characteristics and sufficient strength, then this is called a general.

.

If you only have characteristics and no strength, then you are a fool.

But the Vergo in front of him is a person with no "characteristics" and only strength. This is very unusual.
