Infinite Begins with Giants

Chapter 1040 Ceremony, three admirals

The night is vast, the stars are hanging high, the moon is shining, and the lights in the palace garden complement each other, showing the magnificence.

Today is the day Wren honors several of the kingdom's admirals.

At seven o'clock in the evening, outside the Lionheart Palace, hundreds of guests flocked in groups, almost all of them were prominent figures.

The scene was lively and grand, no less than the award ceremony held by the World Government for Marshal Akainu a few days ago.

In other words, this is imitating the behavior of the other party. Whoever dares not come must weigh the consequences of not giving Lei some face.

The president of the World Economic News Agency and one of the bigwigs in the underground world, the birdman Morgans, accompanied by Stussy, was surrounded by a group of people and walked into the palace.

Looking at the well-dressed nobles and celebrities around him, many of whom were familiar faces, Morgons couldn't help sighing:

"It's hard to imagine that it took you only half a year to build such a great country... The scene at the Holy Land three days ago was nothing more than that."

He has been to Hongye Island several times, and the place is almost different every day, and it can bring him surprises every time.

Stussy, who came with Birdman, raised her sexy red lips slightly, and said with a slight smile:

"Your Excellency has praised it. Compared with the world government, there is still a gap."

Birdman smiled and said nothing.

He just came from the Holy Land Mariejoa, and was invited to participate in the award ceremony for Marshal Akainu held by the World Government a few days ago.

It is true that the Lionheart Kingdom is inferior to the World Government in terms of grandeur and quality of guests, but ceremonies and banquets of this scale are not comparable to any other force.

The tea party hosted by Bigmom is a joke by comparison.

Morgons stared at the beautiful and charming Stussy, and said with emotion:

"I haven't seen you for a while. The queen's demeanor is even better than before. I'm a little envious of you."

I thought that the Queen of Happy Street's identity would be exposed and she would lose her value, and she would be doomed.

She never thought that now that she is next to the swordsman Ren, her identity and status are even better than before, and even he has to be careful to apologize.

"Your Excellency is joking, I am just His Majesty's maid, a little lady."

Stussy's blue eyes were as clear as autumn water, and he smiled faintly.

She raised her plain hand and fiddled with her bangs. The sultry mature woman's invisibly revealed style made the moonlight tonight seem even more enchanting.

Many men around suddenly froze, their lusts sprouted, and they almost lost their composure.

Even Morgons couldn't help sighing.

The queen of Joy Street is even more beautiful and feminine after her second rejuvenation.

She is wearing a white chiffon shirt + black short skirt. The simple and contrasting black and white collocation shows her slender figure with protruding front and back, especially those attractive long legs wrapped in black silk, which are vivid and beautiful. The gentlemen in the neighborhood can hardly take their eyes off.

There is a popular rumor among the folks: It is said that this glamorous and enchanting queen of Happy Street warms the bed and sleeps with the bloodthirsty swordsman almost every day.

Thinking of this, the gentlemen's eyes were ambiguous, and their hearts were full of envy and hatred.

Damn swordsman Ren, what a blessing!
Ignoring the fiery eyes of the men, Stussy led hundreds of guests headed by Morgas into the hall where the ceremony was held.

This is a large and luxurious space with a gorgeous crystal chandelier hanging on the ceiling, reflecting dreamlike colorful light from every angle.

On both sides, the soldiers were wearing white military uniforms, military caps, various medals and exquisite brooches, holding guns with their muzzles facing up, looking solemn and standing silently.

Barrett, Shiliu of the Rain, Nana, Yi Yi, Wenxi, Lu Qi and other high-level officials of the kingdom have been waiting inside for a long time. They are all fierce and domineering, or deep and unpredictable, or indifferent and lofty, or aggressive. Powerful aura intertwined.

Affected by this atmosphere, the guests immediately silenced, stopped talking with their companions, put away their distracting thoughts, and subconsciously stood up straight.

The reporters were not so reserved. They took out their cameras and phone bugs, and pointed at Barrett excitedly. Shilieu of the Rain, Nana and other big pirates frantically took pictures.

For a while, the incandescent lights flickered non-stop.

The guests were not kept waiting for too long, and after a while, King Renn appeared.

He was wearing a military cap and a pure white senior commander's uniform that was very similar to Mr. Sakalski's. He wore the Royal Admiral's Medal on his shoulders and a white cloak.

On the back of the white cloak, the word "Law Enforcement" was written.

Both have a strong sense of sight.

This shape also caused a little weird look on the faces of many guests.

Naval agencies, marshals, uniforms, cloaks... what does this mean?What do you want to do?
Even many reporters were embarrassed.

Although a few days ago, the swordsman Ren passed through like this, and held a press conference before the red dog took office, announcing the establishment of a naval organization...

But they still felt that the scene was weird and out of harmony.

Especially when I think of the appearance of Marshal Akainu a few days ago, I always feel a little funny...

"Radis and Jeter, good evening, on this significant day, welcome to all of you..."

Ren's voice was clear, and he began to speak the opening remarks.

There are a lot of beeps, basically all nonsense.

No matter what feelings they had in their hearts, the guests all had decent smiles on their faces and nodded from time to time, as if they were listening very seriously.

Well said, listen to how loud His Majesty Ren's voice is...

Kaku listened to these meaningless scenes and muttered boredly:

"I'm wondering if the bigger the official, the more he likes to talk nonsense."

"..."

Among the crowd, the werewolf Gabra and X. Drake felt the same way. They didn't dare to agree with each other, but they nodded fiercely in their hearts.

His former chief, Spandam, was like this.

Now his eldest brother Wenxi is like this.

Kali Law glared at Kaku, and reprimanded in a low voice: "Shut up! This is a basic etiquette rule, do you think you are going to kill someone?"

Kaku: "..."

(˙灬˙), okay, I'll shut up.

Fortunately, Ren didn't gossip for long, and let Yisheng, Nana and Xiliu of the Rain come up.

All three of them were wearing military uniforms, even Nana was no exception.

Because of her petite stature, Nana wore a special military uniform.

She wears a small white military cap, with a proud face, a baby face carved in pink and jade, paired with a dashing pure white suit and a pocket-sized navy cloak, she is extremely cute.

Military uniform loli, a bit like a ship girl.

Many people are attracted by her.

Many ladies' eyes brightened and they were eager to try, as if they really wanted to hold her in their arms. Some LSPs even had the dangerous idea of ​​"starting in three years, the maximum death penalty".

Ren was a little bit attracted by Nana, his hands were itchy, and he wanted to pinch her face.

Next, in a solemn and solemn atmosphere, according to the ceremony and procedures, he awarded the ranks of "Dark Swordsman" Shiliu of the Rain, "Fire Dragon" Nana and "Fujitora" to the ranks of admirals.

The reporters were so excited that they frantically took pictures of the three generals. The flashing lights in the hall were almost non-stop, and the atmosphere gradually reached a climax.

"Didn't it mean Chiryu, Fujitora and Black Hawk?" Someone whispered.

"My friend, where did you hear the rumors? A few days ago, His Majesty Renn only said that there would be a code name of Fujitora."

"Fujitora?"

Someone said with a strange smile, "It's very similar to the code name of the admiral over there. I really want to know what the red dog and yellow monkey think about it."

"Hey, I guess I was blown up, a few pirates actually used...cough cough."

In fact, the two code names "Red Dragon" and "Black Eagle" are not entirely fake news.

Originally, Ren really wanted to do this, but Shiliu of the Rain didn't like the code name "Black Eagle", and felt that the dark swordsman was more suitable for him.

As for the Red Dragon...

On the navy side, there are red dogs and white dragons, and the code name red dragon offended those two people almost at the same time.

Nana doesn't mind offending Mr. Sakaski, but she is a bit of a daughter of God.

At eight o'clock in the evening, the award ceremony came to an end, and there was no accident. Under normal circumstances, I wasn't stupid enough to make trouble here.

"Okay, everyone, please move to the restaurant on the second floor." Stussy said with a bright smile.

Under the leadership of the waiter, everyone went upstairs one after another.

In the banquet hall, the lights were brilliant, and the exquisitely shaped tables were neatly arranged. The tabletops were covered with clean white cloths, incense candles were burning, and all kinds of delicious food and wine were placed on them.

As a king, Ren picked up a glass of red wine and said loudly to the guests:

"I offer a toast to everyone."

"Your Majesty is very kind."

Everyone quickly raised their glasses and drank the wine in one gulp.

Then Ryan said goodbye and left without staying.

As soon as he left, many of the guests' expressions eased, obviously relaxing a lot.

The name of a person, the shadow of a tree, the king of demons, the strongest man in the world and the number one swordsman in the world, a mythical powerhouse who surpasses the Admiral and the Four Emperors, and surpasses Roger and Whitebeard.

His majesty is too heavy.

No one present can sit on an equal footing with Ren, nor can he afford to offend him.

Even though he had a pleasant face and didn't put on airs, the guests still couldn't relax completely in front of him, for fear of being rude.

As soon as Ren left, the guests became less restrained, and began to chat and chat.

Then, some performers in tuxedos began to perform, and the big and small violins played together. The soothing and melodious light music sounded in people's ears and gently echoed in the spacious banquet hall.

As the saying goes, the flowers are fragrant and the temples are dazzling, and celebrities and nobles gather.

Gentlemen and ladies holding glass goblets greeted each other in groups of three or four, smiling like flowers, cheering to the ears, all with smiles on their faces.

The man is polite, the woman is charming, each of them shuttles through the flow of people, and the eyes are dazzling.

The focus of the banquet was naturally Shiliu of the Rain, Uncle Yiyi and Nana, the admirals of the three kingdoms.

Someone looked at the blind man in a military uniform, standing in a corner, who had been acting quite modest and polite, and said in a low voice:

"Who of you knows, what is the origin of that life?"

"I don't know, I look pretty ordinary, and I'm still blind... I don't know why I can stand side by side with Fire Dragon and Dark Swordsman." Someone questioned disapprovingly.

Fujitora is quite conspicuous in the banquet hall, it can be said that more than half of the people are looking at him.

These include Morgons, Diamanti of the Don Quixote family cadre, Ben Beckman, the deputy captain of the Red Hair Pirates, and Charlotte Owen, the cadre of the Bigmom Pirates...

There are currently five generals in the Lionheart United Kingdom, including Barret, Hawkeye, Nana and Shiliu of the Rain.

The blind uncle was unknown before, but he can stand side by side with these well-known big shots, why is it not surprising?
In particular, Rennes gave him the code name "Fujitora" full of admiral style.

It's a pity that Uncle Yi had no intention of showing off, and he didn't care about other people's temptations and doubts at all. He held his glass of wine calmly, and dealt with those who came to chat with him politely.

"I didn't expect that you would join the Lionheart Kingdom."

Ben Beckman looked at the blind man for a while, took a glass of champagne from the waiter's plate, and came to the corner.

In a deserted corner, Mihawk shook his red wine glass, enjoying himself alone.

When he saw Ben Beckman, he raised his eyebrows and said:
"What about Shanks, why didn't you come?"

"Go to the rubble island."

Ben Beckman took a sip of champagne, shook his head and said, "He hopes to persuade the empress and Kaido to give up. I don't have any expectations for that."

If it wasn't for trying to persuade the fight, with Shanks' character, how could he miss such a lively event today?
Hawkeye held the wine glass, his face remained unchanged, and said: "Then he should bring you, there are so many people and big fists, so maybe Kaido and the Empress can listen to him talk more nonsense."

Hearing this, Ben Beckman had a wry smile on his face.

Obviously, Mihawk is not optimistic about Shanks' actions at all, and he is not optimistic about it, otherwise he would not come to the banquet.

Shanks was just trying to persuade the fight, and didn't intend to violently intervene. If he succeeds, he'll be damned.

Both sides are red-eyed, neither the empress nor Kaido will give him face.

Ben Beckman put down his wine glass, lit a cigarette, took a sip and exhaled the smoke, sighing:

"If Ryan went to persuade the fight, maybe they could be stopped."

What he said actually meant something.

Hawkeye is obviously a smart person, understood the subtext, and said lightly:

"If Shanks asked you to come here because of this idea, I advise you not to waste your efforts, even if you pull me, don't expect to be able to persuade Ren to stop the fight.

With his personality, it is estimated that Kaido and the empress would be quick to use their brains. "

Ben Beckman: "…"

(￣△￣;)
He actually understands this.

Offending the Tianlong people, actively attacking the admiral, invading the city of advance, and sinking Marin Fando... Such a guy, what kind of "peace envoy" can you expect him to be?
Stop being funny.

Ben Beckman is not optimistic about Shanks' actions, because both sides are not optimistic, and neither is he.

With a sad face on his face, he murmured in a low voice: "It's too unreliable to expect Ren to stop the fight. Thank God he didn't send someone to get involved."

Hawkeye: "..."

It is good to know.

Ben Beckman dismissed the idea of ​​going to see Ryan, with a cigarette between his fingers, and asked:
"What is the origin of that life?"

Hawkeye shook his head and said: "I don't know too well, I only know that he is very strong, and being a general is enough."

Ben Beckman was a little moved, and said: "Excellent, who else can stop Rennes from dominating the world?"

He was talking about dominating the world, not dominating the new world.

Hawkeye was silent.

On this point, he actually has a little experience.

In the past, when he was Shichibukai, when he was wandering in the New World, pirates dared to attack and harass him from time to time.

But after he announced that he would join the Lionheart Kingdom, he occasionally drove the coffin boat out for a stroll, and the pirates in the new world basically fled.

What frightened them was not his identity, but the flag on the coffin boat.

In the new world, there are almost no people who are not afraid of the swordsman Ren and the Lionheart Kingdom, and some of them basically died under the butcher's knife of the dark swordsman.

For example, among so many pirate supernovas this year, none of them have come to the territory of the Lionheart Kingdom to do things, and no one has attacked ships flying the kingdom's flag.

The Empress, Red Hair, Big Mom and Kaido, his ships and territories have been more or less harassed by those daring supernovas this year, but no one dares to mess with the Demon King.

Ben Beckman was smoking a cigarette, watching the back of Admiral Fujitora on the other side. The word "Law Enforcement" on the other side's cloak was so eye-catching that his eyes flickered, and he said:

"I'm a little curious, what exactly does Ryan want to do this time?"

He could guess that Ren was going to do something, but he didn't know which way he would use to start it.

Hawkeye said perfunctorily, "You will know tomorrow."

Ben Beckman's eyes were piercing, full of wisdom, and he tentatively asked:

"Does Ryan know that Bigmom sent troops? He plans to stand by this time? As far as I remember, he seems to have a good relationship with the empress."

In the war on the top, the empress and the swordsman Ren seemed to have a tacit understanding.

Afterwards, many people speculated that they might have friendship or even have an affair.

After all, in terms of conditions, the two are quite a good match. They are both top-level powerhouses, strong and young, one is handsome and the other is beautiful. It is normal for them to see each other.

After the top war, tabloid news about the two has always been very marketable.

It wasn't until both of them proclaimed themselves emperors, and Rennes had a princess, that the popularity of these gossip news subsided.

Hearing Ben Beckman's words, Hawkeye's expression was a little strange, and he said:
"The Bigmom Pirates have dispatched troops. Naturally, this news cannot be hidden from us. As for whether Rennes will interfere, maybe."

Ben Beckman raised his eyebrows and became interested, saying:

"Maybe? Is it to help the empress?"

At this time, the position of the Lionheart Kingdom is very important, and it can completely influence the direction of the Battle of the Two Emperors.

"maybe."

Hawkeye's expression became even weirder. "Not long after I joined, I don't know very well, but the earliest veterans like Wenxi and the swordsman Marcel seem to have said that Ren coveted the beauty of the Empress, and has always wanted... to fuck her."

Ben Beckman: "…"

('Δ)!
Is this bullshit?

However, there are too many people who want to sleep with the most beautiful woman in the world, and it doesn't seem surprising that Ren also wants to sleep.

Ben Beckman had a strange expression and said, "So?"

"There are already tens of thousands of troops gathered in the barracks, and they should be dispatched. The target is probably the Bigmon Pirates... I just don't know who will lead the troops this time."

There was a trace of fighting spirit and excitement in Hawkeye's eyes, and he said, "I really want to fight Bigmom."

He has already obtained the knowledge and theory related to the "Field of the Sword" route from Ren, and has some preliminary insights.

It would be great to have a strong enemy to experiment with.

The Lionheart Kingdom is about to send troops?

Ben Beckman's face was a little surprised, digesting this important information, for some reason, his eyes focused on Fujitora, and said:
"You may be disappointed, this time you are not dispatched."

Hawkeye raised his eyebrows: "Oh, why?"

Ben Beckman pointed to the blind man over there, exhaled a puff of smoke, and said slowly: "Because you have already achieved fame, there is a high probability that it will be him who is dispatched this time."

Mihawk doesn't have to prove himself, but Fujitora does.

Hawkeye: "..."

A wake-up call.

Watching Fujitora's back, Mihawk suddenly realized, and at the same time his face twitched.

MD, happy for nothing.
