One Piece: General Xuanming, Defeat the New World

Chapter 159: War Readiness, Headquarters Meeting

As orders were passed on one after another, the entire navy changed from its usual calmness, and a tense and solemn atmosphere permeated the entire naval headquarters.

The number of patrolling soldiers doubled compared to usual, and even colonels and brigadier generals also participated in the patrol.

The long sword is unsheathed, the bullet is in the chamber, ready to fight against the invading enemy at any time.

The patrol team rotates around the clock, and uninterrupted patrols are carried out in every corner of Marinford.

The naval warships that were carrying out missions abroad also returned to the headquarters port one by one, and one-third of the troops from the four seas were drawn back to defend the naval headquarters.

All generals on leave will be urgently recalled, and all leave applications will be rejected unless there are special circumstances.

In the Marinford commercial district, all entertainment venues except for pubs, restaurants and other basic life facilities are closed.

The Marinford family quarters have entered a stage of strict protection.

Lieutenant General Hisenlett was personally on duty, holding a knife to prevent any possible accidents.

After the Zefa incident, the entire navy was plunged into grief. At the same time, the protection measures for the navy's families have undergone several major changes and have become very complete.

Despite this, Lieutenant General Hisenlett volunteered to come and garrison.

In addition, Zefa's naval training camp also cancelled all sea training and turned all training into closed training within Marinford.

To protect the safety of these seedlings that have not yet grown up to the greatest extent possible.

……

At the agreed time, everyone in the conference room had already taken their seats.

"It was Marshal Steelbone Sora who personally convened the meeting!"

Seeing that General Zhan Guo was sitting at the head of the conference room, while the lecture seat above was still empty, the lieutenant general who came to attend the meeting understood the seriousness of the situation.

Almost all political and military arrangement meetings in the past two years have been convened by General Sengoku on behalf of Marshal Konggu Sora.

Everyone knew that Admiral Sengoku would be the next Navy Marshal, so no one had any objections.

This time, it was convened personally by Gang Gukong after a long absence, which shows the seriousness of the situation.

"According to the intelligence we have received from the Navy and the World Government, the pirates in the New World will make another big move."

Gang Gukong's loud voice echoed in the conference room, and everyone picked up the information on the table and started reading it.

"A peaceful new world..."

"The Pirate Leader's Meeting..."

"The warships that frequently disappear in the New World..."

All the lieutenant generals present realized the seriousness of the matter and turned their eyes to Kong Ganggu, waiting for the marshal's next arrangements.

After all, if you don't even have this little bit of military awareness, you're not qualified to be a lieutenant general.

"Then I'll tell you the truth."

"The pirates have already felt the impact of the Navy and the World Government's radical policies in recent years."

"They can't just sit there and wait for death. They will definitely rise up in resistance."

"There is a high probability of a riot in the New World."

"Everyone, all we need to do is prepare for the worst-case scenario where the New World pirates unite and launch a joint counterattack!"

Gang Gu Kong spoke in an excited tone, without hiding anything.

"If the pirates collectively counterattack, what will happen to the New World? How should we deal with it? Please think carefully, colleagues!"

There was a hint of heaviness in the loud tone, and every word was deeply engraved in everyone's heart.

The atmosphere in the conference room gradually became solemn, and even Garp, who was always laughing, put down the senbei in his hand.

In the battle sweeping across the new world, no one can remain immune.

"The Navy cannot give up the New World. This is the Navy's bottom line."

"Even if we have to give up the New World in the end, we must hold on to the last bottom line of the G1 branch."

"And even if we have to lose, every time a Marine branch is lost, the pirates will have to pay the price in blood."

"G3 branch, on the edge of the Whitebeard Pirates' territory."

"G2 is the gateway to G1, and east of the G4 branch is the sea area of ​​the Golden Lion."

"The G5 branch is miles west of the Wan Guo Sea, so these three naval branches will become the front lines of this war."

……

The meeting lasted from noon until dinner time when it barely ended.

When they left, the lieutenant generals present all looked serious.

The focus of this meeting was to explain the form and inspire mobilization.

After the meeting, Vice Admiral Tsuru, Sengoku and Sora Hyō continued with a small meeting.

This meeting preliminarily determined the navy's deployment route and troop leaders.

Lieutenant General Tsuru followed General Sengoku eastward along G1, G2, and G4, blocking the Golden Lion's advance at the G4 branch.

If the pirates' attack is too fierce, then retreat to the G2 branch.

And Garp and his dog-head warship defended the G3 branch.

Garp and Sengoku are both navy men who are evenly matched with Whitebeard, so it is a fairly safe approach to have Garp fight against Whitebeard.

And in the south, Charlotte Linlin's Ten Thousand Kingdoms will definitely join the war.

But the problem is that the navy no longer has the combat power to go on the expedition.

Zefa has been relegated to the second line, and his asthma also makes it impossible for him to participate in large-scale, high-intensity battles.

If this were not the case, Vice Admiral Tsuru would not have been allowed to follow Sengoku into battle in person.

"Marshal Kong, do you think Carson can lead the troops alone? If we ignore the south, Charlotte Linlin and Kaido will most likely join the battle, and the navy will be in a passive position at that time."

Vice Admiral Tsuru proposed a candidate that greatly surprised Kong Gang.

"Carsente, he has only been in the navy for four years. He has no ability to lead a large army. And, and..."

Gang Gukong denied it subconsciously, but as he thought about it for a while, the resolute voice became smaller and smaller, and finally disappeared.

"Experience is far less important than strength at a time like this. Otherwise, which experienced lieutenant general would you like to send to Charlotte Lingling to die?"

Vice Admiral Tsuru retorted.

"Besides, we don't need any outstanding results on the southern front. As long as we can defend the G5 branch and ensure that G5 is not the first to fail among the three fronts, that will be enough."

"This battle will eventually be withdrawn to the G1 decisive battle. What we need to do is to deplete the morale and strength of the pirates as much as possible before that."

Vice Admiral Tsuru saw things very clearly. Even if the front line could hold its own or even launch a counterattack, those pirates who were just watching the fun would definitely join the war.

The navy cannot launch further counterattacks; this is the bottom line for all pirates.

"At the same time, arrangements must be made to ensure that members of the Navy branch on the New World front are evacuated in a timely manner."

"The entire New World Navy has over 100,000 naval forces deployed, and we must ensure their safety as much as possible."

As Vice Admiral Tsuru spoke, he racked his brains, trying to think of the shortcomings and loopholes in the plan.

The more tense the situation is, the less anxious you should be, otherwise you will make mistakes in a hurry, and every wrong order will result in the deaths of thousands of sailors.
