A certain scientific pirate - Chapter 271
c271 my face
Marshal Sakaski has been very, very angry in the past two days, and he has been frustrated by the events that have happened one after another.
First of all, the World Government helped Doflamingo release false news that he had given up his position in the Shichibukai. This matter directly bypassed him as a naval marshal, leaving him to be tricked around like a monkey.
Secondly, when he went to the Holy Land Marie Joa to discuss this matter with the Five Old Stars, what he received was a merciless rebuke. The Emotional Navy Headquarters is very close to the Holy Land. Is it just to make it easier for the new marshal to get criticized?
Again, after the Dressrosa incident, Admiral Fujitora actually led the navy to kneel to King Riku… which meant that neither his superiors nor his subordinates actually respected his authority as a marshal.
What now? Another Shichibukai, Edward Weibull, actually raided a navy transport ship, resulting in the life and death of a particularly valuable rear admiral still unknown and missing… Well, this is a nice way of saying it. In fact, the top brass of the navy have already acquiesced to Mo Fei. He had died in the Qibukai’s surprise attack because the strength gap between the two sides was too huge.
These things put Akainu, who had repeatedly suppressed his emotions, on the verge of breaking out.
The Shichibukai directly attacked the Navy. This was an absolutely intolerable act of crossing the line. So Akainu immediately applied to the World Government to remove Edward Weeble’s title of Shichibukai and launch a siege against him… The authority of the Navy cannot be tolerated. Blasphemy, if this kind of thing can be tolerated, then what dominance does the Navy have?
However, Akainu’s application fell into disgrace and did not receive any response from the Five Old Stars.
Just when Akainu couldn’t bear it anymore and was about to go to Mariejoia to meet the Five Old Stars again, an official from the World Government came to his office… Apparently he was an official from the World Government, but judging from his clothes Akainu immediately judged that this person truly belonged to the intelligence agency CP0.
In other words, the Five Old Stars were too lazy to talk to Akainu directly and sent a lackey (or so Akainu thought) to get rid of him as a naval marshal.
At this moment, Akainu was already in a state where he could hit someone at any time.
CP0 arrived at the marshal’s office and found a seat to sit down. Then he first looked at the calligraphy and painting “Absolute Justice” hanging on the opposite wall, and then turned his attention to Akainu.
“Marshal Sakaski, according to the instructions of the Five Old Stars, the Navy should not make an overreaction regarding the attack on the Shichibukai Edward Weibull.”
There was nothing wrong with this man’s words, but to Akainu’s ears, it always felt like the other person didn’t take him seriously.
“Don’t overreact? What kind of reaction is an overreaction?”
“Knowingly asking questions? It means not publicizing, not investigating, not fighting back, that is, ignoring the matter… Your Excellency, Marshal, you can’t see things you don’t want to see. The Navy is very good at doing such things, isn’t it?”
Akainu frowned and stared at the opponent with sharp eyes, already vaguely locking him.
However, the CP0 was completely unmoved. He didn’t care about the intimidation from the navy marshal.
After staring at each other for a while, Akainu leaned back and leaned his back on the back of the chair.
“A sailor and even a senior officer died in the incident. I can’t think of a reason to let Edward Weibull go. Doesn’t he need to pay the price?”
“Your Excellency, Marshal, the World Government doesn’t care about your specific ideas. The Five Old Stars just want you to accept their orders.”
“…”
Akainu really felt that he should take some practical and effective methods to maintain his authority. Why would a mere CP0 member dare to be so bold in front of him?
Seemingly sensing the marshal’s dissatisfaction, the CP0 continued to explain, “Doflamingo has just been defeated, the Straw Hat Pirates continue to head east, the four emperors are making different moves, and the resistance is becoming more active… At this time, the new world is The situation is already very delicate, and the balance between the parties has a tendency to be broken. In this case, the navy’s strength is insufficient, so it is not appropriate to push a strong man like Whitebeard II to the World Government just for a mere major general. Go to the opposite side.”
“It’s not a matter of a major general, but a matter of the navy’s authority and face!”
Akainu’s voice rose involuntarily, but CP0 was not affected by such emotions at all. He just continued, “As long as you don’t publicize it, the Navy’s face will not suffer any loss. In the eyes of the World Government, a rear admiral The fighting power and influence on the sea are far inferior to those of a Shichibukai, especially a top powerhouse like Whitebeard II. The two sides cannot be put on the same scale at all, so…
The Five Old Stars hope that Marshal Sakaski can accept their order. A mere rear admiral… isn’t it the fate of a sailor to die in battle at sea? ”
The World Government was able to completely ignore Zefa’s feelings in order to recruit Whitebeard II, and now Mo Fei is only treated equally.
The navy is naturally a “direct lineage” of the world government, but in fact, whether it is the Shichibukai or the more influential Yonko, they are actually necessary components of the Tianlong world system.
The balance of power among all parties in the world is the overall goal of the world government. To this end, they can instigate a war to eliminate one of the four emperors, or they can slightly suppress the navy headquarters… They are all dogs of the Tianlong people, so what if they are aggrieved? .
As for Akainu’s reputation, well…
Marshal Sakaski smashed the desk in front of him with a punch, and all kinds of paper documents suddenly flew randomly. He was really angry.
At this moment, the office door was pushed open again from the outside, and then a huge round thing was thrown in first.
The thing hit the broken desk, then bounced back, and after a few more turns, its dignity was revealed… Its most obvious feature was a beautiful crescent-shaped white beard.
Well, this is the person who CP0 has been voluntarily maintaining just now. He is also a strong man on the sea recognized by the World Government and the Five Old Stars, and an indispensable powerful pirate in the Shichibu Sea. Edward Weibull, who calls himself Whitebeard II.
Whether it was Akainu or CP0, this way of meeting was extremely unexpected.
The CP0 member suddenly stood up from his chair.
Later, he saw an obviously seriously injured patient walking into the office with the support of a female sailor, and he had no impression of the appearance of these two people… Small people may not be able to catch the eye of CP0.
“Sorry, Marshal Sakaski, my hands are a bit slippery… My current physical condition is relatively bad.” Someone with three broken limbs said. His face was pale, his body was messy, and his voice was slightly tired and… A scratchy feeling.
And until he spoke, the other two people in the office still did not recover from their shock.
Mo Fei actually regretted entering the office at this time. If she had come a step later, she would have been able to see the conflict between Akainu and CP0, and maybe it was such a small thing that could gradually cause Akainu to separate from the World Government… Okay Well, this seems a bit too taken for granted.
According to workplace rules, as a subordinate, you must always protect the boss’s face, otherwise the boss will be a failure.
Oh, a leader who does not take the blame for his subordinates is not necessarily a bad leader, but a subordinate who can help his superiors gain face must be a good subordinate. This is the legendary exchange of equal value.
