Comic series: Starting from Pirates to Cultivate the True Self

After Mo Xingchen came out of Marshal Zhan Guo's office, he took Luo straight back to his own office, sat on the sofa, rubbed his temples, closed his eyes and began to meditate.

Luo was in the Marshal's office just now. As a junior, he naturally had no right to speak, but Ace was one of his few friends. At this time, he couldn't wait to ask Mo Xingchen:

"Uncle, is there really a way to save Ace?"

As for the Five Elder Stars, Luo was not worried at all. He had seen with his own eyes the status of his uncle in those people's hearts.

“Isn’t that what I’m thinking about?”

Mo Xingchen replied softly without even opening his eyes. Luo Ye stood aside with his head down, thinking. Suddenly he thought of something, but was a little hesitant and didn't dare to speak.

"Say whatever you want."

"Uncle, what do you think about letting Ace join the navy?"

Mo Xingchen didn't say anything, but just shook his head gently. Seeing this, Luo asked quickly:

"Why not?"

"Now the news that Ace is about to be executed has spread across the sea. This inevitably gives people the illusion that Ace turned against his allies in order to save his life before his death.

Even if Esben was an undercover agent sent by the navy, there is no reason why this matter would be made into such a sensation.

Although this can deceive most of the ignorant civilians, how can we explain it to the lower-level naval officers and soldiers?

Ace had no comradeship with them, nor did he make any contribution to the Navy.

If you suddenly tell them that the son of the Pirate King is their comrade, what do you think they will think?"

Mo Xingchen paused here, opened his eyes, and looked at Luo's young face. This child had been brought up by him since he was a child.

Luo himself is also very competitive. Not only is he smart, but his character, quality and ability are also excellent.

So this time, Mo Xingchen personally took him to travel around the world to meet all living things, allowing him to directly see the great changes that the sea train project has brought to the world's lower-class civilians. It is completely like training a future naval marshal.

So he continued:

"Luo, when you are in a high position, especially as the leader of a faction, the most taboo thing is not to simply rely on your own subjective will and use lies to deceive the people under you.

Kindness does not command an army, which does not mean that those in power do not need to be kind.

It's about you, even when you are ordered to cover the rear or lure the enemy, which is a life-threatening mission, you must tell your soldiers clearly instead of deceiving them with lies.

Soldiers take orders as their first duty, but even if they die, they must die clearly and understandably! "

......

That's why, in times of war, there are always some generals yelling into the phone:

There is no extra reinforcement in the headquarters, but even if you have to fight to the last man, you have to delay the enemy for a few hours and hold your ground to the death!

The soldiers on the front line knew that this was a mission that meant they would die, but they did not complain. They resolutely chose to put on grenades, pull the fuses, and charge into the enemy group.

After listening to Mo Xingchen's teachings, Luo stood up straight and said with a serious face:

"Yes! I remember it!"

Mo Xingchen continued to think with his eyes closed, what was the solution to this situation?

As for the candidate for the future Navy Admiral, why can't it be Ace?

People often say that a person's background is not important, but sometimes, identity is the biggest obstacle.

It's very simple. Compared with the grandson of the marshal, the son of the major general, and the third generation of the navy with a good family background, the son of the pirate king is...

There is no doubt about who the sailors below will support.

After all, this is different from the situation where Aokiji and Akainu are competing for the position of marshal. They are both admirals of the navy and have made great military achievements. Although they are from different factions, the grassroots soldiers will absolutely support whoever comes to power!

If Akainu comes to power, at most there will be no generals available, but he can still use the big recruitment to ease this embarrassing situation.

If Ace comes to power, there will really be no soldiers to use! He can't just recruit a large number of soldiers, right? If so, the navy will probably have to change its name to the thief army.

This is why Mo Xingchen hadn't thought about the fundamental reason why he had pulled Ace into the navy since he was young. Ace couldn't just be a soldier forever, and the higher he went, the more his background would become an obstacle.

It's not fair to Ace to live with suspicion and vigilance from all his comrades.

Because the prejudice in people's hearts is really difficult to eliminate, let alone in this world with backward education.

......

The entire office fell into silence. Not only Mo Xingchen, who was sitting on the sofa, was thinking, but Luo, who was standing beside him, also had a frown on his face and his brain was working rapidly.

After a long time, Mo Xingchen, who had his eyes closed, suddenly spoke:

"Luo, go call Rosinante over."

After a while, when Rossinanti walked into the office and saw Mo Xingchen sitting there,

"Director, are you looking for me?"

"Well, mute it."

Rossinanti was stunned for two seconds after hearing this, then he reacted and immediately snapped his fingers. In an instant, an invisible force field enveloped the entire room.

At this moment, any noise in this office, even a big explosion, will not be perceived by the outside world.

Seeing this, Mo Xingchen took out a Den Den Mushi from his arms and started dialing a number.

"Bulu Bulu ~ Bulu Bulu~"

"Which one!"

"Whitebeard, is this how you protect Ace?"

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone for Whitebeard. The moment the Den Den Mushi rang, he had a feeling that it might be Mo Xingchen calling. After all, except for him, no one else would call through this Den Den Mushi.

And Mo Xingchen's soul-searching question made him unable to answer.

After a long silence, Whitebeard did not make any excuses for himself. No matter what reason he used, what happened to Ace had already happened, so he said in a low voice:

"Feel sorry."

"What are you going to do?"

Facing Mo Xingchen's second question, Whitebeard did not think too much this time, and said bluntly without hesitation:

"I will rescue Ace in my own way!"

"Oh, starting a war? Leading all your men to attack the Navy Headquarters and prepare to rob the execution ground?

Let's not talk about whether you, as a pirate group, can defeat the navy and save Ace.

Let me ask you, how many of your sons are you prepared to let die?"

Mo Xingchen's sarcasm silenced Whitebeard again.

Can he beat the navy? Of course not! If he could, his Whitebeard Pirates would not be one of the Four Emperors, but the real Pirate King.

His sphere of influence would not be blocked by the navy in the New World, but would have radiated to the entire ocean.

Is he afraid of death? For the sake of his son, he is not afraid! But what made him silent was Mo Xingchen's last question.

He looked up at the concerned faces of Marco, Joz and the others;

He was afraid, so he hesitated.

Mo Xingchen sighed as he watched the phone receiver remain silent for a long time.

"I have a foolproof method here. Whether you are willing or not, the choice is yours."
