Comic series: Starting from Pirates to Cultivate the True Self

Zhan Guo nodded to everyone, then raised his hand and pressed it down. When the meeting room was quiet, he opened the folder and said:

"In recent years, our navy has made remarkable achievements in clearing the four seas of pirates, and has greatly curbed the source of pirates. However, for the Grand Line, the navy's control is still slightly insufficient, especially in the second half of the Grand Line.

Currently, the remnants of the Rocks Pirates, led by the Whitebeard Pirates, the Beasts Pirates, and the Big Mom Pirates, are stirring up trouble in the New World and seizing territory. They are even called the Emperor of the Sea by those who like to gossip.

Therefore, I propose that Vice Admirals Sakaski, Borsalino, and Kuzan be promoted to Admirals of the Navy Headquarters, so as to enhance the prestige of our navy and suppress the rogues!

At the same time, the focus of the navy was shifted from the Four Seas to the Grand Line, allowing more capable and powerful generals from the Four Seas branches to go to the headquarters for promotion, and intensifying efforts to clean up the pirates on the Grand Line.

At least we must ensure that the navy has control over the first half of the Grand Line. Then we will accumulate strength and wait for the right time to attack the New World and wipe out all the thieves in the world!"

There was another round of applause, followed by a voting session, in which the promotions of the three generals were basically approved unanimously.

This is the political wisdom of the older generation. It could have been proposed by Kong Gu, but since Zhan Guo took the lead in proposing the promotion, the three of them would have to remember Zhan Guo for a favor.

This allowed Zhan Guo to quickly take control of the navy after taking office and implement a peaceful transition of power without creating an embarrassing situation where he had no one available.

This time Sakaski did not refuse, but he looked at Mo Xingchen thoughtfully, which made Mo Xingchen a little confused.

Then Vice Admiral Tsuru proposed the World Government's intention to establish the "Seven Warlords of the Sea", which was strongly opposed by most of the generals. The matter had to be shelved, and it was up to Sengoku to argue with the Five Elders after he took office.

Then came some insignificant suggestions, and finally the division of functional areas, personnel deployment, etc. that the three generals were specifically responsible for.

Sakaski is in charge of the second half of the Grand Line, commanding several naval detachments from G-1 to G-5 to fight pirates.

Borsalino is stationed at the Navy Headquarters, in charge of naval scientific research projects and guarding the holy land of Marijoa.

Kuzan is in charge of all the vice admirals and branch bases in the first half of the Grand Line, and is responsible for the cleanup of this area of ​​​​sea.

Finally, near noon, the meeting ended. Mo Xingchen listened to the noises around him, opened his eyes dazedly, and found that some people had already left. He quickly stood up and prepared to leave, but was stopped by Zhan Guo.

When only Sengoku, Tsuru, and Garp were left in the conference room, Sengoku said:

"Xiao Mo, I'm going to promote you to lieutenant general this time. What do you think?"

"Why, Uncle Sengoku, I'm fine like this!"

"Let's not talk about other things for now. You are a soldier of Garp, right? Now Garp is under the jurisdiction of Sakaski. If we round it off, you are equivalent to a soldier of Sakaski."

Shit! I was saying that Sakaski looked at me weirdly just now. Although Zhan Guo only proposed it today, I must have discussed it with them in detail before.

Before Mo Xingchen could speak, Zhan Guo continued:

"I can't just transfer Garp back to accompany you to hang out and check in. You definitely don't want to be the head of a branch base. As for Borsalino, you can't do scientific research, so you can only stay here with Kuzan.

Now I don't think even Garp can control you, let alone arrange for someone else to be your superior, so I can only promote you to vice admiral."

"What I mean is that I can move to the first half of the Grand Line. Okay, you are the new boss! I will give you this honor."

"Haha, it seems that I am quite impressive. Then tell me the bottom line. After a few years, what is your current level of strength?"

"Hey~ I'm not bragging, kid. Let me tell you this, if I fight Whitebeard one-on-one, I may not win, but I will definitely not lose. Our main advantage is youth! In a few years, I will be invincible!"

Hearing this, the three old men burst into laughter. Mo Xingchen thought for a moment and said with a hint of embarrassment:

"By the way, Uncle Zhan Guo, is it a bit against the rules for me to be promoted like this?"

"Rules? Hahaha, you're actually talking about the navy's rules in front of the Navy Admiral?"

Well, you are the boss, you are the one who makes the rules. Damn, he tricked me!

In the next few days, Mo Xingchen and Robin attended classes in Vice Admiral He's office almost every day.

Mo Xingchen needed to learn some things that a lieutenant general needed to pay attention to and some things that needed to be coordinated. After all, he was promoted directly from a colonel to a lieutenant general.

As for Robin, Lieutenant General He was dissatisfied with Mo Xingchen for raising her as a wild child, so he asked her to learn etiquette, pay attention to elegance, and know how to be a lady.

Mo Xingchen took some time out to go to Kizaru and ask him for help in building him a warship that could sail in the calm belt. It didn't need to be too big, nor did it need to be equipped with too many weapons and equipment, but it should focus on functionality, comfort and maneuverability.

Then he said hello to Cap and directly asked William and his group to come over. After all, it had been 8 or 9 years and he was too lazy to replace them with new people.

And Marinford has been preparing for the upcoming graduation ceremony these days. Due to the special nature of this ceremony, many guests will be invited, including those from the World Government, Allied Nations, and bigwigs from all walks of life. Of course, the bigwigs from the pirate world are not among them.

Gang Gukong and Zhan Guo have been closing their doors to visitors these days. Several times when Mo Xingchen went to take classes with Vice Admiral He, he could hear some mysterious voices coming from inside their offices when he passed by, like elementary school students trying hard to recite a text.

Finally, the day of the graduation ceremony arrived. Mo Xingchen was dressed neatly and entered the venue with Garp. Although they were both lieutenant generals, their seats were assigned differently according to their positions.

For example, Kapna was in the front row, sitting in a row with pillars of the Mesozoic era such as Kong, Sengoku, and Crane, as well as three Aozoic era warriors who were about to be promoted to admirals.

The second row was composed of lieutenant generals who commanded the chiefs of the major frontier bases, and Mo Xingchen was arranged in the third row.

Fortunately, there were some acquaintances around, including Diyuan on the left. During the casual chat with Diyuan, Marshal Kong began to review his military career, the important political achievements during his tenure, and finally stepped down and handed over the power to Zhan Guo.

Then the new marshal began his speech, talking about some plans for the future development of the navy and so on.

Then Zhan Guo stood on the stage and began to award medals to the graduating recruits. Then one general after another came on stage to award medals and give speeches, explaining various kinds of justice.

However, the word I hear most often is "absolute justice." This is also the current status of the Navy, with more hawks than doves.
