The True Path of Pirates

When Warring States' words were conveyed to the entire conference hall, the conference hall that had been silent and solemn immediately became chaotic.

Before, everyone's eyes were only focused on three people, and most of them were filled with admiration.Now all the eyes of the audience were focused on Ruiden alone, and many of them were filled with suspicion and jealousy.

"Quiet! If you have different opinions, you can raise them now!"

"..."

Sengoku's sullen voice immediately suppressed all the noise and calmed down those who were dizzy.Only then did they remember that this Lord "White Dragon" was a "ruthless character" in the true sense.

"If you have no objection..."

"Wait! I have an opinion!"

"!?"

Just when most people had acquiesced and even started to think about the changes in the future navy, an "unsociable" voice suddenly sounded, and that person did not hesitate and walked out of the queue and stood in the middle of the two queues. On the aisle.

"Colonel?"

"Which detachment are you from? So brave!"

"Lori! Back off!"

The naval captain, who was called Rory, said nothing. He just stood respectfully and upright in the aisle, with no emotion on his face.He saluted Warring States from a distance, but did not even look at Ruiden at all, as if he was afraid of him.

"Are you Colonel Luo Rui, who was transferred to the headquarters from Xihai last year? I remember that you seemed to be a graduate of Zefa's 11th training camp!"

"Yes! Thanks to the marshal, he remembers his subordinates!"

"Hey, hey~ things are getting interesting~ Ryden."

"cut……"

Kizaru, who was already a general, still looked that out of character.His voice reached the ears of Ryden standing next to him very clearly, and it also made Ryden let out a not-so-happy "complaint", which made our General Kizaru even happier.

Luo Rui, however, still looked upright and rigid. Seeing that Warring States gave him time to speak freely, he also put down his saluting hand and looked at Warring States calmly.

"My subordinate is a disciple of Teacher Zefa and was once a member of the training camp. Lieutenant General Ruiden is one of the most outstanding students in the history of the training camp. But even the 'youngest general' Zefa is 38 years old. He has just served as a general! Lieutenant General Ruiden only has 10 years of full military service! He is only 25 years old this year, so he is too young to be a candidate general now!"

"snort!"

Luo Rui's voice was very firm and expressed the feelings of many people.However, Akainu, who was standing in front of Ryden, let out a loud "snort", causing the "ignorant" young officers among the hawks to shut their mouths.

Warring States and Ruiden looked at each other, and then issued another majestic order to the entire meeting hall!

"Does anyone else have any opinions? Raise it now!"

"My subordinates also agree with Colonel Luo Rui's view!"

"Lieutenant General Ruiden is indeed too young. I'm afraid he will cause criticism."

"This is also the same view for humble positions!"

With Luo Rui's appearance, one after another people jumped out of the crowd to "support" Luo Rui, and some even said "heartbreakingly" that this was not for themselves, but for the navy!For the stability of the army!

It took a while before the chamber returned to calm.And there was not only Luo Rui alone in the middle aisle, but five more naval officers with different military ranks. Among them, the one with the highest military rank was a Lieutenant General named Pagu!

"Since a lieutenant general has raised objections, let's vote and support..."

"etc!"

"Wait a minute!"

Before Sengoku finished speaking, he saw Akainu and Riden raising their hands at the same time, and the two of them looked at each other, and both saw surprise in each other's eyes.Ruiden made up his mind instantly, then retreated to his position, closed his eyes slightly, and gave Akainu the chance to speak.

"Marshal Warring States, I have something to say."

"Speaking."

"Yes!"

Akainu received Sengoku's approval, and then walked forward step by step until he came to the six people headed by Pagu, his eyes became extremely scary.

"Age? Military experience? According to you, the longer you live, the more power you should get?"

"No, we mean..."

"What is the duty of a naval soldier? Only the interests of the navy! Hakuryuu made a name for the navy in the New World before he was 20 years old, and opened up a navy branch on the territory of 'Hundred Beasts' Kaido! Two years ago He led the team to defeat the 'big mom' pirate group and captured three bounty criminals! Even the 'Golden Lion' who made a big fuss about Malinfando, escaped from Impel Down and made the navy lose face! He also died under his Under the sword! But you losers are talking so loudly here, it is simply shameless! Navy scum!"

"I...we..."

Akainu's words and the gradually rising temperature of his body suddenly increased Pagu's pressure, and sweat continued to flow from his forehead.And Akainu didn't want to talk nonsense with them anymore, but walked back to his position and stood there quietly.

"Lieutenant General Ryden, what else do you have in mind?"

"I do have something to report to you, and what a coincidence!"

"Oh? What exactly is it?"

Ruiden walked out of the queue and walked to Seng Guo, and then handed the documents that he had "already" prepared to Seng Guo.

"This is the financial report that my subordinates recently asked the 'Secret Force' to investigate. It was found that these troops have serious financial loopholes. According to the "Naval Charter", it is enough to go to a military court for dismissal and investigation!"

"Here! Let me see!"

Ruiden turned around so that everyone could see Seng Guo's angry expression. At the same time, he handed a document to Seng Guo and carefully placed it on Seng Guo's right hand side.

"The previous list was issued by the government's bank, and there was absolutely no fraud! And these complaints were written by the people where these troops were stationed, and they clearly explained the evil deeds of these naval officers! Although some evil deeds are not enough to be punished by law , but it has seriously affected the image of the navy, and I hope the marshal will deal with it seriously!"

"Seriously! We must be stricter! We can add a few more articles to the Naval Charter!"

Warring States slapped the table hard, and his whole body entered a state of extreme anger.He stepped down from the chair, walked quickly to Pagu, grabbed his collar, and pressed his head in front of a document.

"Pagu! You bastard is not worthy of being a soldier! Just spend the rest of your life in prison and spend the rest of your life repenting! Someone!"

"Yes!"

"Take away all the people on the list! Take them directly to Judiciary Island! Urge the government to open a military court to punish these rubbish hiding in the navy! Lieutenant General Flying Squirrel! Please follow them!"

"clear!"

The Warring States period was vigorous and resolute, and the people in Pagu seemed to be frightened. Before they could resist, they were handcuffed by Lieutenant General Flying Squirrel and the soldiers and pushed away.

And Colonel Luo Rui was once again "alone". He himself was "ashamed of himself" and simply hid in the team, preventing everyone from pitying him.The codename Bailong has naturally become the new history of the Navy!

The following meeting was relatively boring, but with the previous "excitement", everyone was obviously much more serious in handling matters.With the help of the three generals, Warring States finally experienced the "leisure" that he had never experienced before, and the smile on his old face became brighter...

After the meeting, Warring States rushed into the marshal's office. Rosinandi also made a pot of tea early and carefully handled the broken teacup so that the "careless" Warring States did not notice anything strange.

And soon, the two people "sneakly" entered the office, then walked to the opposite side of Warring States and sat on the sofa.

"Very good! Colonel Luo Rui, your 'performance' exceeded my imagination."

"Yes! It's all 'taught' well by the two officers, hehehehe..."

"You can go directly to the 'Benjamin' with someone you trust to report it. Pay attention! Don't let the news of today's incident leak out, just like what happened before!"

"I understand, of course I understand! Then I will go back and clean up first. You two are busy!"

Luo Rui didn't have the fortitude to show up at the meeting, and his flattering look looked like a loyal licking dog.After he left, Ruiden hurriedly poured tea for Warring States while letting out a long sigh of relief.

"The performance is finally over, I'm really tired."

"Haha, are you tired too? I've helped you again!"

"Yes, you are the best to me. I'll give you a toast with tea instead of wine!"

"Hmph! Stop doing this!"

Although Warring States said this, he still raised his tea cup and took a sip.He seemed a little hungry, so he quickly asked Rosinandi to bring some senbei, and he started eating senbei while drinking tea, which looked very comfortable.

"I've been observing this guy Rory for a while, and he still has a very strict mouth. At least he didn't leak anything about you and Nico Robin back then. You should be able to feel at ease now that he's on your ship."

"Well, if you get on my ship, you will be my partner, so why should you feel uneasy? But Marshal, can those guys really convict?"

"It's difficult... After all, they are from the government. It is too difficult to eradicate them. But we have spent so much effort and put on a big show in front of all the naval officers. Naturally, there is no possibility of these people coming back to serve!"

"Well, actually it's good to be like this. But when Akainu came out today, it really scared me. I thought something was going to happen."

"I was also frightened. Fortunately, there was no change in the final result. I'm glad!"

In the meeting hall today, Ruiden was just an "actor", just helping Warring States put on a big show.

Although the navy has always been controlled by the world government, after all, there is a clear division of functions. This kind of government agents serving as senior naval officers still makes Sengoku very unhappy.

It's just that the Warring States Period had no way to deal with these guys. After searching for a long time, they only found a small part of the evidence, so it was difficult to catch them all.

Therefore, Luo Rui was used to take the lead this time, attracting some World Government personnel who were very disgusted with Riden, and then directly sending them to the military court with thunderous means. This was the entire plan of the Warring States Period.

In fact, Ruiden only had Pagu as evidence of guilt, and the four people who were arrested along with Pagu were very "innocent".But fortunately, several people have been frightened, so this matter can be considered a good outcome.

"But Marshal, I feel a little uneasy when you take the initiative to help me like this... You'd better just tell me what you want to do!"

"I just want to help you, isn't this okay?"

"I don't believe it...unless you swim in the sea one day, I don't believe it."

"..."

Warring States was speechless and could only spread his "grievance" on the senbei. He quickly finished the entire plate of senbei and drank a large cup of tea before he looked at Ruiden and his expression finally became serious.

"Remember what I told you two years ago?"

"Of course I remember, the 'big event' that could change the navy!"

"That's right! This is also why we rush to eradicate the World Government's spies!"

"what reason?"

Warring States wiped his hands with a handkerchief, and then waved to Rosinandi, who also took out a document and handed it directly to Ruiden.

Ruiden glanced at it a few times, and the more he looked, the more something was wrong, and he immediately froze.

"This...this is! Senior Sengoku! You!"

"Don't get me wrong, I said, this is not to help you, and I never thought of helping you!"

Sengoku's expression was still serious, and it didn't look like he was telling lies.Ruiden stood up and turned the thin document over and over.

"You seem to have underestimated your own influence! There are many newcomers in the navy who joined the army because of the 'Thunder Emperor'! And among the naval officers, there are also a small number of people who are already leaning towards you and working with the World Government and the There is a conflict between the extreme hawks in the Navy! This all started with you, but it is something I don’t want to see!”

"what do you mean?"

Ruiden also forced himself to calm down. He sat back down, poured a large cup of tea into his mouth, and listened intently to Sengoku's speech.

"The power of the world government is more powerful than you think, and although your current power is not large, it has touched their bottom line! If the government completely kills you, the navy will not be able to protect you! But I have always been with you Emphasize that you are a member of the navy! Now you represent a group of forces in the navy! If the government eradicates you, the navy will also suffer heavy losses, which is definitely not what I want to see! "

"I...I understand."

"Don't look at me like that, it's disgusting! And I'll stress it again! I..."

"You are not doing it for me, nor are you supporting me, but you are doing it for the navy, right? I really understand..."

"Hmph, it's good to know."

Ruiden carefully put the document back into his pocket and looked at Sengoku with eyes still filled with gratitude.

Perhaps the Warring States Period was still thinking about the overall situation, and while wanting to keep the navy strong, there were many different ways out.However, his actions did help Ryden and made Ryden's situation improve a lot!

"But Senior Sengoku, I still can't figure it out. Is the World Government's move too dangerous?"

"What's the danger? It can show the tyranny of the government, go 'fishing', and maybe even get the blueprint that they all want. It would be weird if they didn't do it."

"'fishing'?"

"CP5 and CP9 were all dispatched, and the navy directly sent Qingpheas. We are not afraid of too many 'fish', but we are afraid that there are no 'big fish'!"

"The guys in the 'New World' are not stupid, so they will still come?"

Warring States looked at Ruiden who was a little confused and couldn't help but smile teasingly. He picked up the teapot and filled Ruiden with a cup before speaking slowly.

"After all, the 'bait' is too tempting! That is the ancient weapon - Hades!"
