Tsuruchu will continue
"It is very likely that the Revolutionary Army is causing trouble in the Four Seas. I also understand their purpose and the attitude of the people, so I suspect that they may be involved. If there are any problems after you go to the South China Sea, don't fight them on your own. You can notify us for support."
This is the main intention of Tsurugi in the future, hoping that Zephyr can protect his safety. The combat power of the Revolutionary Army is constantly updated in the Navy's intelligence system. CP0's intelligence feedback is that Noah is suspected to have the strength of a great swordsman, but the Navy does not believe this very much, thinking that it may be that CP0 itself is useless, so it exaggerates the opponent's strength to make its own defeat not so ugly.
Regardless of whether CP0 really improves the opponent's strength, the strength of a top swordsman is Zefa, a former physique-type general who has passed his peak, he still poses a great threat.
On this side, Vice Admiral He was giving instructions to Zefa, and on the other side, Sengoku was also giving instructions to Rocinante. He was saying basically the same things, and Sengoku even said a few more words because Rocinante's fighting power was too weak.
"If we run into the revolutionary army when we go to the South China Sea this time..."
Chapter 155 The Birth of Fujitora
The navy's main forces are now dispersed widely.
The New World was commanded by a general and high-end troops. The Navy Headquarters was commanded by a Navy Admiral and a general. In the East China Sea, when Sakaski left, he took away 5 vice admirals and many elite troops, as well as firepower configurations that could launch the Demon Slayer Order. Many core forces were also deployed in various important bases on the Grand Line to suppress the pirates who took the opportunity to cause trouble.
When Zefa set out with the new recruits, he was deeply touched when he saw the somewhat empty Navy Headquarters. It seemed as if the sea had returned to the most turbulent times of the past.
Rocks, Golden Lion, Whitebeard, Charlotte Linlin, Kaido, and Roger. In that turbulent era, the Navy Headquarters also looked a bit empty, and it was unknown whether the ships that went out could come back.
At that time, the high-end combat power of the navy was not dominant, and it was mainly because of unity that they were able to continue to suppress the first half of the Grand Line. I really hate and miss that era. It is not without reason that a strong enemy makes the internal more united. No matter how just the admirals at that time were, they were unprecedentedly united in front of one legendary pirate after another.
Unlike now, after Roger's death, the powerful pirates are killing each other in the New World. In the first half, a system of seven warlords was set up to check the new pirates, while the four seas did not care.
The various factions that had settled down began to fight among themselves again because of their different positions.
Although there are still a large number of problems that have not been dealt with at sea, they are no longer within the jurisdiction of the navy.
It's not that the navy doesn't want to exert its strength, but the World Government doesn't allow it. You want to control this and that, what do you want to do? Navy King? No matter how big the pirates are, as long as they don't want to overthrow the World Government, let them be. After a few decades, they naturally fell from their peak, and it is impossible to have a good end.
The craziest Rocks has been wiped out of history. Roger died on the execution platform. The world's strongest Whitebeard will also step down from the throne as he ages. The World Government has stood for 800 years and witnessed the fall of generations of great men on the sea.
Thinking of this, Zefa thought of the books in his suitcase, which contained knowledge that could subvert the world. It was also the most terrifying weapon in the past 800 years, the human mind. Noah..., damn guy.
"New recruits! Pack your backpacks, grab your weapons, and let's go~!"
The recruit ship left the port and headed for the South China Sea.
Standing at the window of the marshal's office, Zhan Guo watched the new recruits ship set off, wondering what he was thinking.
As soon as the warship left the Navy Headquarters, it was discovered by spies from various forces. The situation has been tense recently, and any movement must be reported to their superiors.
Like what happened with Akainu going to the East China Sea, where he brought with him a fleet the size of the Demon Slayer Order, with several vice admirals and ships. If you weren't well-informed, you'd be gone if you encountered them.
The purpose of Zefa's recruit training ship this time is to find a few small pirate forces to practice with. It has nothing to do with those big forces, so we just need to keep a certain amount of attention on them.
I followed and found that they were heading to the South China Sea. Has anything happened in the South China Sea recently? Noah was also confused when he received the news. Why?
Generally, the training of new recruits is mainly in the Grand Line Paradise stage, and occasionally in the Four Seas training. After all, the strength of the new recruit training camp of the Navy Headquarters is still very strong. The new recruits in it are selected from the best of the best, and monsters are born from time to time.
It is difficult for such strength to find a suitable target in the four seas. The big forces have various concerns, such as the Don Quixote family and Germa 66. Small pirate groups are too weak. It is meaningless to let new recruits fight those pirate groups with bounties below 1000 million.
Ask someone to bring the recent intelligence about the South China Sea immediately and analyze it carefully. So that's how it is. There are quite a lot of smart people in the South China Sea. Some big countries found some clues and immediately reported them to the World Government.
Such important intelligence was not listed separately. It seemed that the intelligence department needed to strengthen training. Noah felt that he needed to write some manuals on intelligence work and send them to core personnel. When it comes to intelligence warfare and underground work, he has a lot of experience and can write a lot of content.
The establishment of the General Staff should also start as soon as possible. There are so many documents to review every day, which is not only inefficient but also likely to cause mistakes. It is urgent to establish a comprehensive General Staff. It is both a combat command agency and a military administrative leadership agency. Combat command matters, administrative work matters, such as personnel, military training, administrative affairs, logistics support, etc. can all be involved.
Once the framework is set up, Long will find that the work will become much easier when he returns. The candidates can be selected from the original cadres first, and those who have excellent academic performance in the future recruit training camp can also be considered for this purpose.
Combat power is something that does depend on talent. Some people have used all kinds of secret medicines in the training camp and various scientific training methods, but their combat power still cannot be improved, or the gap with other people of the same period is gradually widening. In that case, they can change direction and develop in the clerical field. This matter is left to Robin. As a cultural subject teacher, she is very clear about the learning situation of each student.
The problem now is Zephyr. This former general has not yet identified with the Revolutionary Army, and the previous cooperation was also due to some common ideas that made him cooperate with Noah.
If they meet again, Noah will be in contact with them, which may lead to war, because the Revolutionary Army has done a lot of things in the later period. Although it is a just act, the face of the Navy has been sacrificed again and again. For an old Navy with decades of military experience, this back and forth slap in the face is unbearable.
Alas, there is a person whose ideal of justice is simple and firm, and who is also a high-ranking cadre in the revolutionary army, with strong strength and an old-fashioned style of doing things. That is Yixiao.
Or Fujitora, yes, Noah still decided on this name for Yixiao, and took advantage of the Navy's creativity. First, it is safer to have a code name instead of a real name, so that the World Government will not make some preparations against Yixiao.
Secondly, Yixiao's joining the Revolutionary Army was very secretive. So after the split of his identity, can he do something in public? After all, his resume is very clean. The righteous swordsman wandering the world coexists with the navy. In Naito, he is a smile outside. It is similar to Noah's Adam identity.
Look, this time Yixiao can come forward, as for what identity to contact Zefa, we need to think carefully. It would be best if we can give him an official identity, so that we can contact him more naturally.
Chapter 156 Concerns about the Sea King
'dong dong'
"Please come in"
Yixiao walked in, leaning on his staff and sword.
The two parties simply greeted each other. Since they saw each other often, there was no need to be too polite and they just got straight to the point.
"That is to say, let me and Admiral Zefa exchange some ideas about life in the South China Sea and discuss its future development, right? That's easy. I also often take time to look around. I have to say that when I first came here, I looked at what you did more as a bystander, or more as a supervisor. If it violates justice, I will leave without hesitation, and I don't want to be an accomplice.
But the plans you have made in the past few years are very consistent with what you have said and promoted. For such a cause, I am willing to contribute my own strength. "
Yixiao's cooperation made Noah feel relieved. It was always troublesome to arrange work for such strong people, as they had to take their thoughts and emotions into consideration.
"Then Mr. Yixiao can prepare to set off in the next few days. We already have personnel in the small countries outside who can pick you up at any time."
"Okay, by the way, Noah, does the specific action depend on me?"
Although he didn't know why Yixiao asked this, Noah still nodded to express his attitude. Is it necessary to ask such a thing?
After Yixiao left, Noah continued to correct documents, but he ignored the fact that although it was easier to communicate with old-school people, the way of communication was not what he thought.
Another person walked in. It was Lindbergh, the commander of the Confederate Army. Noah was overwhelmed when he saw him come in.
"What document is this?"
"No, it's just that Princess Otohime's exchange study time is up, and she misses her family very much, so she plans to go back to Ryugu Castle to rest for a while and come back after a while."
"That's fine. Let Jinbei go back with you and protect Princess Otohime. Ryugu Castle has not been peaceful in recent years~"
I don't know if the Celestial Dragons will end up on Fishman Island next year. Most likely not. We just killed one this year, and the World Government will definitely not allow them to go out to sea again. And those extreme Fishmanists should be vigilant. We can't let a bunch of brainless guys ruin the plan of uniting Fishman Island.
Noah still admired Princess Otohime very much. She was worthy of her reputation as a wonderful woman on the sea.
When she first joined the South Seas tour group, Princess Otohime made a lot of jokes and caused a lot of trouble, but after she came to understand human nature more and more, she grew rapidly.
I have read all the books I was given at the beginning, and I have gained a lot of insights. Later on, I even asked to read more in-depth content, not only about ideas, but also about economics and culture.
She has figured out her future work priorities. The economic model of Fishman Island is too backward, even more backward than that of ordinary civilians in the South China Sea. This backward productivity is difficult to peacefully integrate into human society in the future, and there will always be some contradictions and conflicts.
According to Noah's book, slavery is a system of ownership and control of one person over another that was considered legitimate at the time, arising from socio-economic conditions that produced a surplus product.
However, with the current development of the world of One Piece, there should not be slaves. The old production relations have long been unable to adapt to the requirements of the development of productivity and have become an obstacle to the development of productivity.
So if the existence of slaves has nothing to do with productivity, then what does it have to do with it?
Culturally, the human upper echelons have a deep-rooted arrogance towards merpeople and mermen. They do not acknowledge that humanoid races have the same culture as humans.
What is culture? Culture is the way of thinking, values, lifestyle, behavioral norms, art culture, science and technology of a country or nation that can be inherited and spread. It is a kind of ideology that can be inherited and generally recognized by people of the same kind for communication.
There is no cultural barrier between humanoids and humans, but there are traces of artificial divisions created by the World Government, which prevents humanoids from being recognized by the mainstream world forever. The reason is unknown, and it may be a historical legacy from 800 years ago, just like the apology document and the ship of hope.
She recorded all her discoveries and understandings during this period in her diary, and prepared to return to Ryugu City to look through the historical records there, conduct in-depth research on certain issues, find the root causes, and then solve the problems.
She would not go to the square of Fishman Island again for the time being. The speeches she gave before were too naive. She could not bet the future of Fishman Island on the kindness of the World Government. They did not have such a thing.
Even if she hasn't found the answer yet, she also knows that the world government has contributed a lot to the fishman island's current state. Noah's ideas of overthrowing the world government seemed too crazy to her at the beginning, and she couldn't see a clear success. However, under the various layouts and plans of the South China Sea, it is terrifying to see a slight possibility of success.
He used every bit of Fishman Island's strength to the fullest, including her observation Haki, Tiger's identity as a fishman hero, Jinbe's military strength, and the history of Fishman Island. If it weren't for Noah's strong character, she would have stayed away from this dangerous man immediately.
The greatest protection of Ryugu Castle is not its location 10000 meters below the sea. Princess Otohime, who has lived in the human world, knows how far human technology can go. The greatest protection of Fishman Island is actually his little daughter Shirahoshi. The records of the Sea King have been passed down.
Being able to command the super-large sea kings in the ocean is a terrifying power in this world that is mostly surrounded by the ocean. No one knows how many sea kings there are on the seabed. It seems very strong, but the sea king 800 years ago failed. Can the sea king 800 years later succeed? The final winners are those in Marijoa.
There are three types of ancient weapons, and Poseidon is just one of them. She doesn't want Shirahoshi to be involved in future wars, but history repeats itself again and again. When that time comes, Poseidon will have to be born. She just hopes that time will be later.
This time when she returns, she wants to have a good talk with Neptune about this matter. There are always some things that have to be faced directly.
Chapter 157 Zefa, come and fight!
He boarded the boat to the destination and arrived at the location in a very low-key manner. After verifying his identity and information, he sat on the mountain to adjust his state.
This island is a small country that has just joined the South China Sea Federation. It joined during the initial establishment stage of the South China Sea Federation because this country is really poor and miserable.
It has a good geographical location, a perfect port, and perfect shipping routes. In theory, it can live a good life even if it only relies on the port's cargo throughput and the consumption of people coming and going.
But the problem lies here. Everyone wants to swallow up such a small country. The two neighboring world member states have always been envious of it. From occasional friction, to disputes, to verbal battles, to the frequent professional pirates coming to this country to burn, kill and rob, under the pressure step by step, this country has long existed in name only.
It's just that the two big countries are still fighting each other, of course, they used the land and resources of this small country to fight the war, and finally beat this place to pieces. In recent years, because they were busy with the sea train plan, they temporarily put aside the dispute over the ownership of this country, which gave the revolutionary army an opportunity to pick up an opportunity. They came directly and said that they could protect everyone and let everyone have enough food, and then they took it.
Then, a vigorous reform was carried out in the country. The deep-water port was renovated to stimulate industry and commerce. Land was redistributed and agricultural subsidies were provided. The spread of ideas was indispensable. All these measures consolidated the basic foundation in a short period of time.
After the two superpowers reacted, they discovered that their home seemed to have been robbed by someone, a South China Sea Federation that had not yet been formally established. How could they tolerate this?
Our two world member states have not yet divided the ownership, and you, a small country federation, dare to get involved. You must let these country bumpkins see the world. The two countries joined forces, and a group of warships set off. This time they will take down this country together, and then divide it equally.
The atmosphere was very relaxed when we set out. It was not the first time. Many troops had privately visited this small country countless times as pirates, so they were very familiar with the route.
But this time they were unlucky, and encountered a very strange weather anomaly. Several waterspouts that covered the sky suddenly appeared on the sea, leaving the military navigators on board dumbfounded. When did the weather in the South China Sea match that of the Grand Route? They quickly retreated, but unfortunately they still lost most of the warships, and only a few high-ranking generals escaped.
The two big countries were furious and put the blame on the small country. They sent diplomats and said without any excuses that if the small country failed to pay compensation and sign a colonial treaty, they would continue to attack the small country and leave no grass behind.
The cadres of the revolutionary army will not tolerate them. The troops have been beaten and they are still so arrogant. Do they really think that the storm our boss created was in vain? The diplomat was frustrated and left angrily. Before leaving, he said that there was nothing to say to you uncivilized barbarians, just wait for the troops to come.
But will there really be a large army coming? The loss of this batch of troops has already caused them great damage, so how to send more troops? How to calculate the military expenditure? The big bosses in China sponsored most of it before because it was profitable, but it ended up being a waste. They will definitely not do it again, what if they throw it into the water again?
Some shady people even thought that this was a self-directed and self-acted plot. In fact, there was no loss, it was just a loss of money. The king and nobles were even less likely to pay. Life was not easy now, and even the gold from heaven was intercepted a little less.
We are not willing to let them go, and some bad guys still put forward insidious suggestions. We can't control it, but the world government can. We have paid the Tianshangjin every period, and this protection fee has been paid in full. If something goes wrong, it's not too much to let the boss solve the problem. At worst, we can give the boss a larger share.
We hit it off immediately and reported to the World Government that someone in the South China Sea was disrupting the public security management and social stability of the World Member States, and most importantly, it affected our collection of Heavenly Gold.
The World Government originally didn't want to get involved in these petty matters, as they didn't even know what their own brothers were like. But after seeing the last sentence, they thought that for the sake of world peace and stability, they should let the navy work harder.
The order was forwarded to the Navy Headquarters, indicating that it was time to enforce your justice, so go ahead and do it. Generally, the high-sounding orders issued by the World Government would most likely contain some disgusting content.
Then Sengoku had to carry out the order. After all, the Navy was a violent agency under the jurisdiction of the World Government. At this time, in order to maintain the rule of the World Government, it had to take action to resolve these things or people.
This is why Zefa came to the South China Sea. The navy really had no one at this time, otherwise Sengoku would not have sent a truly righteous navy to deal with things.
Another possibility is that Sengoku knew what was going on here and deliberately sent Zefa here to let the former general handle it according to his own wishes. After all, he is a former general. So what if he really did something that went against the intention of the World Government? The World Government said it would uphold justice, so we will uphold justice.
At most, he would be demoted internally, but retired generals would still care about this. Zefa eats in the cafeteria, works to train new soldiers, and donates almost all his income. The only special thing is that he uses an office and lives in a single room. How can this be done~~
Yixiao stayed in the mountain for a few days and finally received the news that the navy was approaching. He walked slowly towards the dock with his staff and sword.
Zefa, who had just disembarked at the dock, was asking the new recruits to find an open space to set up camp, and then ordered the intelligence officer accompanying the army to collect information. He would not believe the intelligence given by the World Government.
According to intelligence, the people of this small country are all heinous criminals, lazy and aggressive. In a word, if we can pacify this country, we should pacify it. At least we should capture the ruler of this country to maintain order.
He has been on missions for decades and has seen this kind of intelligence and instructions many times, but he has never executed them once. It's ridiculous. I am the hero Zephyr.
After a while, the intelligence officer collected the initial information, which was very different from the information from the World Government. When Zefa was about to let the intelligence officer continue, a red light flashed in his eyes and he looked towards the distant direction of the dock. There was a strong pressure moving towards this side.
A tall and burly blind man walked over with a wooden stick in his hand. The intelligence officer next to him had some impression of him. He seemed to be a blind swordsman who traveled in the Grand Line. He had a strong sense of justice. It was a pity that he was not trained by the navy, otherwise he would have been absorbed into the navy long ago.
The blind swordsman slowly walked up to Zefa. Zefa was puzzled. What was this person going to do?
"Zefa, come and fight!"
Zefa?
"I don't know how to become friends with the other party and discuss those things, so Noah, you have to follow my method!"
Chapter 158: Rough Swordsman
Zefa at the dock was a little confused. Was this blind swordsman sick or had a misunderstanding? How could they start a fight right away? They had to introduce themselves to each other, talk about their grudges, and then fight again.
Good guy, just skip the first few steps. Are you the iron-fisted one or am I the iron-fisted one? Isn't he the blind swordsman of justice in intelligence? This is simply a reckless swordsman! The iron-fisted Zefa of the Navy pondered for a while.
"it is good."
The intelligence officer next to him was dumbfounded. What is this? Sure enough, there are only wrong names, but no wrong nicknames. Blind Swordsman and Iron Fist, absolutely amazing. He had to contact the headquarters immediately. It was the first day in the South China Sea, and he encountered a strong enemy. There was a big problem in the South China Sea. However, he was stopped by Zefa.
"It's okay. I don't mean to kill you. It's not bad to talk after the fight."
