I became Doflamingo in One Piece

Chapter 289 Justice never compromises

After hearing Sengoku's question, others were also a little confused and looked at Vergo. Vergo said with a sad face:

"Lieutenant General Garp had some heart discomfort before the battle began, so after the battle began, he suffered a sudden illness and was injured by Beckman. He died of his injuries..."

"This also caused me, who was supposed to be supporting others, to be entangled by Beckman."

"And the most important point is that the red-haired pirate has three emperor-level combat powers, except for Shanks and Beckman."

"That Jesus Bu teamed up with Lakilu and was able to match the general. Jesus Bu even used special bullets to severely injure Aramu!"

"It was also because of Jesus' cloth that Marshal Sakaski was seriously injured and died together with Shanks."

"And the other officers of the Red Haired Pirates are also extremely powerful. In order to stop them, General Fiery Mountain all died in the battle!"

"All the cadres of the red-haired pirates were wiped out by us."

After listening to Vergo's words, Warring States looked at Garp's bruised body, then turned to Vergo and asked:

"Garp has a heart problem?"

"Are you sure?"

"I am sure!"

Vergo looked at Warring States with a serious face and said:

"Vice Admiral Garp, the hero of the Navy!"

"It was not that he was defeated at the hands of Beckman, but that he died of a malignant illness during the battle!"

"Lieutenant General Garp will never fail!"

Hearing the meaning of Vergo's words, Warring States seemed to have become older. He looked at Vergo with a bitter look on his face and his tone was full of helplessness:

"Yes, the hero Garp was not defeated by the pirates."

"Virgo..."

"Leave Garp's body to me for preservation, and I will send him back to the East China Sea."

"And Sakaski..."

Looking at Sakaski's face that remained determined even after death, Sengoku said with some sadness:

"As for Peacock, I will ask Gion to comfort her."

"Virgo, I will leave Sakaski's and his family's funeral arrangements to you, who he trusts the most."

Vergo nodded with a heavy face and said nothing, then picked up Sakaski's body and walked towards the base.

The other lieutenant generals were also lifted up, and Sengoku picked up Garp with a sad look on his face and followed Vergo.

The navy took off their hats again, and heavy and sad emotions enveloped the hearts of every navy.

------------------------------------

The navy generally practices cremation, and then either sends the ashes back to their hometown or scatters them into the sea.

Except for Garp, the bodies of all Sakaski and the others were turned into ashes in New Marineland, and most of their ashes were scattered into the sea.

The main officers of the navy have come here to participate in the farewell ceremony of these heroes.

In addition to bidding farewell to Sakaski and the others, they also came to select the next marshal of the navy.

Since the establishment of the Navy, Sakaski was the first marshal to die in battle. Coupled with the death of naval hero Garp, the slightest carelessness will destroy the Navy's reputation for many years.

Naturally, the navy also knew it very well, but as for the choice of navy marshal, the navy knew clearly before Vergo returned that there were only two people, Porusalino and Vergo.

Compared with Porusalino, Vergo, who is highly valued by Sakaski and Zefa, will naturally receive more support. However, Vergo's short time to become admiral is a flaw.

The Warring States Period naturally supported Porusalino, because Sakaski's death made them worry that Vergo, whose attitude towards pirates was almost the same as Sakaski's, would be hard-pressed not to step into Sakarski's footsteps. Following in the footsteps of Caskey.

As a marshal of the navy, it is almost rare to fight in person. What a marshal needs is to strategize, and Sakaski's character is too radical, which is why the navy is so passive now.

After the ceremony, Sengoku approached Porusalino alone.

Pushing away Porusalino's office, Sengoku was stunned:

"Porusalino...."

Porusalino did not rest with his feet on the desk as usual. He was in a daze holding a photo with Sakaski.

That sad look was something I had never seen before in the Warring States Period.

After seeing Warring States, Porusalino said softly:

"Marshal Warring States, I know your purpose very clearly."

"But I am not interested in the position of marshal, and Vergo is Sakaski's chosen successor."

"So you don't have to persuade me."

Warring States walked into the room, closed the door and said in a deep voice:

"But Sakaski has proven his failure!"

"Because of his radical plan, he, Garp, and eighteen vice admirals were buried with the red-haired pirates!"

"The Navy is in an unprecedented crisis!"

"Porusalino, what the Navy needs is not a radical marshal!"

"But a marshal who knows balance! knows how to compromise!"

"Given Vergo's relationship with Sakaski and his attitude towards pirates..."

"After he becomes the marshal of the navy, it will only make the navy even more desperate!"

"And there are still many doubts about this matter. I suspect it has something to do with the World Government!"

"Porusalino!"

Warring States said in a pleading tone:

"Whether it's personnel or reputation..."

"The Navy cannot suffer any more losses!"

"Marshal of the Warring States Period!"

Porusalino stood up, put the photo on the table, looked at Sengoku and said:

"Sakaski said something, and I actually agree with it."

"Justice never compromises!"

"And instead of fighting with the world government, I want to lead the navy in the direction..."

"I'm better at following orders."

"Please come back."

"Oh, by the way, even if I agree, I can't compete with Vergo."

"Because Virgo is the future of the navy, as jointly identified by Sakaski and Teacher Zefa!"

"And now it's time for Vergo to make an early appearance!"

Hearing Porusalino's words, Sengoku was stunned and didn't speak for a long time.

The marshal voting ceremony officially began, but Porusalino gave up the competition just like last time.

Not to mention Yixiao and Arammu, Arammu himself does not belong to any faction of the navy. Although Yixiao was accepted by the Warring States Period, his time was still short after all, and his qualifications and achievements could not be compared with Vergo's, nor was he qualified to become a naval marshal.

Otherwise Sengoku wouldn’t have approached Porusalino.

Vergo walked up to the high platform, looked at nearly a thousand naval officers and shouted loudly:

"Although my time as an admiral is too short, I have the confidence to lead the navy to become stronger!"

"Justice needs us to protect it! To protect justice, we must not be afraid of sacrifice!"

"Marshal Sakaski and Lieutenant General Garp have set an example for us!"

"I will carry on their legacy!"

"The Navy is justice!"

"Our strength is the cornerstone of protecting justice!"

"Justice will destroy all evil!"

"Justice never compromises!"
