Chapter 215 The frightened Akainu(1/2)
While thinking, Gawain continued to speak to the thoughtful Akainu.
"In some ways, Kuzan is much worse than you.
Sakaski, you are probably the most qualified soldier in the Navy.
The only general who did not put personal feelings above military orders!"
Having said this, Gawain picked up a cigarette, holding the cigarette in his mouth, and then gently rubbed it with his right thumb and index finger, letting the overflowing current ignite the cigarette.
Exhaling a puff of smoke, Gawain continued.
"From a superior's perspective, you are the best in the Navy, Sakaski.
But the corresponding one is...
When you look at everything from a civilian's perspective, you are the most terrifying general in the navy.
But fortunately, although I agree with the thoughts of each of you and Kuzan, when I stand on my height, I need more people like you in the Navy!"
After he finished speaking, Gawain took out another cigarette from the cigarette case and threw the cigarette into Akainu's hand.
"You should know how to smoke, right? Come on, have one. Think of it as a thank you gift from me for coming to the aid of Golden Town."
"Thank you Gao Wensheng!"
Akainu put the cigarette into his mouth with a sullen face, and gently lit it with his finger that turned into lava. At the same time, Gawain continued.
"Before, Kuzan asked me if I would support him when he needed it.
I didn't give any indication on the spot.
But now, although you didn't ask me similar questions, I will tell you that I will take time to support you.
In your moment of need!”
After saying that, Gawain let out a long breath of smoke, and then set his eyes on Akainu.
As for Akainu, he spoke to Gawain with a determined face.
"Gao Wensheng, actually you should know that what I want is not the support you mentioned. If I lose something, I will fight it back with my fists.
If I can't beat it, I will accept failure quietly!
What I really need is a voice from above like you that gives me affirmation of my behavior!
What I really need is another kind of support from a being like you!"
Having said this, Akainu said with a sullen face and angrily.
"In recent years, pirates have emerged one after another, but that is not what I am most concerned about!
What I am most concerned about is the rot within the Navy!
Although I have been staying in the headquarters, I know very well how rotten the branches all over the world are!
Almost every one of those rubbish who occupy the position of commander of the Sihai branch cannot even defeat a mere major or even captain who goes out from the headquarters!
At the same time, there are fewer and fewer bounty orders from all over the world, and more and more pirates are not asking for bounties until they enter the Grand Line. The navy of the Grand Line branch!
In contrast, the situation of corpses in the Sihai branch is becoming more and more serious. The navy really needs an almost complete overhaul!
I have made this request to Marshal of the Warring States Period. I hope that I can directly change the positions of the ministers of each branch in the Four Seas, and even replace them all with new people trained by the headquarters in recent years!
But whenever I raised this matter, Marshal of the Warring States Period rejected me on the grounds that this would alienate all branches of the navy from all over the world!
However, we are a navy that carries justice. Do we need to consider whether soldiers are disengaged?
If someone becomes disengaged due to a transfer from the headquarters, the worst possible outcome will be a complete overhaul of the entire navy!
Because the Navy can be easily separated from others, they are not worthy of bearing the word justice!
In that case, they might as well become pirates and die in my hands!
Their existence can only make the atmosphere within the navy even worse!"
Akainu took the cigarette out of his mouth and put it out, and then he bowed to Gawain deeply.
"So, sir, as long as I have a chance to implement my ideas about the navy, it no longer matters whether I can become a marshal or not!
I am very pleased to know that you are willing to support my decision here, but the support I really need is not to support me sitting in the marshal's office!
What I need is that you can support me in one or two world conscriptions!
The unhealthy tendencies within the navy can only be completely improved after one or two major blood changes. If you want to continue to suppress or even destroy the pirates, the current soldiers are not enough!
Except for the navy of the headquarters, even the East China Sea cannot maintain the purity of the naval branch. It is the hometown of heroes, but even if I have not been to the East China Sea for a long time, I know what kind of collusion between soldiers and thieves there will be!
Therefore, my lord, I will put forward this view at the upcoming meeting of the world's fifty major alliances next year.
That's when I need your support, and I sincerely hope to get your support!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Akainu solemnly bowed to Gawain in the earth-seat posture again.
And Gawain…….
Looking at the prostrated Akainu, he frowned and thought for a while.
After a moment, Gawain nodded gently.
"I think I can support your decision at that time, but after all, I am not a five-year-old star.
My support may have some effect, but it may not necessarily make you successful!"
Having said this, Gawain lightly tapped his thigh with his finger.
"As a naval admiral yourself, you should know that if the navy's conduct of global recruitment is seen by people around the world, they will not think about issues such as whether there is decay and corruption within the navy.
They will only feel that the power of the navy is no longer enough to suppress the pirates, so the navy will pin its hopes on world recruitment!
Obviously we don't think so, but they just think we do, and this will send a dangerous signal to countries around the world!
They may feel that the world government has declined!
Therefore, if there are no special circumstances, then Wulaoxing will probably not agree with your decision!
The unprovoked global military conscription has a huge impact.
And if you want to succeed, it’s not enough to have my support, you need a prerequisite that makes the whole world think that the navy should be a matter of course and that we should conduct a global conscription!"
After the words fell, Gawain looked at Akainu silently, and Akainu nodded thoughtfully.
"Indeed, the Navy should always maintain a transcendent status in the eyes of the world!
Only in this way can the navy become a tool to deter and prevent young people from going to sea!
But even if it cannot be approved, I will definitely put forward my plan and opinions!
As for the conditions, if they don’t exist, then I will try my best to create them!”
As he spoke, Akainu suddenly stood up from the ground!
I saw him giving a military salute to Gawain at the end, and then he said it seriously.
"In short, my request has been made. No matter how you respond to it, I will obey the orders from you and the World Government!
As for now….
I didn't get the information that Shanks had infiltrated back to the Grand Line before, so I didn't have time to react.
But now that I have met Shanks, I will never let him return to the new world easily!
Although he has received your temporary asylum, I am willing to obey your order and temporarily allow him to leave Hong Kong for a period of time early.
But letting him go first for so long is my limit. After all, I am a navy, and I am just a navy!
And isn’t it natural for the navy to pursue pirates?”
Having said this, Akainu nodded to Gawain.
"So, please allow me to say goodbye to you, I'm going to hunt down Shanks and his party!
Let him travel back and forth on the Grand Line with great arrogance. The negative impact on the reputation of the navy will be too great!
Finally, I wish you always good luck, Gao Wensheng!"
After saying that, Akainu quietly waited for Gawain's order, and Gawain glanced at the suckling pig in the distance.
"Since Shanks is determined to sneak back to the Grand Line, he has already thought of what he will face. Just do what you should do, Sakaski.
But no matter what, when the suckling pig is already on the grill, you can’t leave without eating even a piece of meat!”
Having said this, Gao Wenmeng pressed his palms to the ground. At the same time, fine lightning spread out in a ring with him as the center!
Immediately afterwards, the swords of everyone present swung slightly, and every swordsman, including Gion, put their hands on their swords to control their respective swords.
The next moment, countless metal particles poured out of the soil around everyone.
The thick current wrapped around those particles, directly melting the metal particles into hot red slurry. The metal solution gradually gathered together, and then slowly floated to the bottom of the suckling pig!
Suddenly, the high temperature of the metal solution caused the suckling pig's maturation progress to soar. At the same time, Rayleigh not far away showed an expression of appreciation.
"Tsk tsk, Captain Gawain, if we hadn't known that you ate the Thunder Fruit, we would probably have thought that you ate the Magnetic Fruit, or the Reheat Fruit!
It's only been a few days, but your application of the fruit has already reached a level that I can't understand!
