Chapter 121: Kuzan and Crane
"Lieutenant General Karp!"
The admiral who came as he approached greeted Karp with respect and admiration in his tone.
Although they have the same rank as Karp, they are both lieutenant generals, but Karp's qualifications, prestige, and combat power in the navy are unmatched in the navy, and only Marshal Sengoku can be compared.
Since Roger's time, Karp and Sengoku have been leading the front line of the navy, striving to be at the forefront of the navy and maintaining the absolute justice of the navy.
Everyone who arrives at the Navy Headquarters will hear the legend of Karp told by their predecessors, and in the mouth of the Navy soldiers, Karp is "the strongest guardian of the Navy".
Lieutenant Admiral Present, from entering the Navy to the current Vice Admiral, has been witnessing the legendary road of Vice Admiral Karp, many of the generals in the Navy have received the favor of Vice Admiral Karp, and some have served under Vice Admiral Karp.
Even the current Admiral has to be called "Hero Karp" or "Mr. Karp" in front of Karp.
It is precisely because of such a powerful teacher, coupled with his strong talent, that Lin Tian can be said to be a mixed wind in the navy, and his status is also rising.
Karp just nodded his head at these people's greetings, his eyes swept to the crane in front of him, a smile appeared on his face, and he was also very happy to see Crane Karp.
happily said: "Hey, little crane, it's been a long time, since you went to that new world, I haven't seen you for a long time."
For Karp's words, Crane only glanced slightly, and then put his eyes on the crowd around him, as if he was looking for something, and Karp has been working together for many years, Crane has long understood Karp clearly.
This old man is getting more and more regressive as he lives, he is old, and he is still like a young man every day, he has not seen him all day long, he has not spoken yet, he has not seen him for a long time, he just met him at a naval base last month.
Seeing that the crane actually ignored himself, Karp suddenly felt bad, and said helplessly.
"Hey, crane, I'm such a big person here, you have to look at me."
Tsuru looked at it again, "Well, such a big figure has seen it", and his eyes swept to other places.
Black lines appeared on Karp's head, what happened to this little crane today, how did he seem to be absent-minded.
After glancing at the person and not seeing the person, the crane looked at Karp and asked in a loud voice: "Hey, Karp, why didn't I see Lin Tian, Lin Tianren, did you beat him again."
Hearing Crane's words, Kuzan and the others also quickly scanned with their eyes, and found that there was really no Lin Tian, and there was a trace of puzzlement on their faces, Lin Tian should also be there at this time.
Lin Tian, who had just been reborn in the One Piece world, was very curious about everything, so he often wandered around the Navy Headquarters Marin Fando when he had nothing to do.
From time to time, I would meet many senior admirals, because Lin Tian was accepted as a disciple by Karp at that time, so most people were not bad to Lin Tian.
In addition, Lin Tian is a teenage ghost on the surface, but at heart he is an orphan who has experienced the warmth and coldness of the world, and his psychological maturity is about the same as that of these dozens of years. In this way, Lin Tian had a relationship with almost all the admirals.
Among them, the deepest one is with the crane, among the admirals, the crane is the favorite of Lin Tian, and he completely treats Lin Tian as his own grandson.
Sometimes, Lin Tian has no choice but to be chased, so he will run to the crane and ask for help.
Therefore, for Lin Tian, a stinky boy and a crane, Karp has always been very distracted, and he has been a colleague with the crane for so many years, and he has not been as good as that stinky boy for a year.
It's okay for the crane not to mention Lin Tian, but as soon as he mentions Lin Tian, Karp is extremely angry, and he doesn't know if it's because Lin Tian ran out, or because the reason why Xiaohe didn't pay attention to himself was because he was looking for Lin Tian.
"That stinky boy, as soon as he got here, ran out, from the morning to now, I don't know what he did, and he hasn't come back yet."
"Hmm!" Tsuru nodded understandingly, looked up at Karp and asked, "Karp, you really don't want to make a move this time, you must know that if you make a move, the naval plan can be completely changed this time, and you can completely eliminate a lot of pirates this time."
The rest of the admirals also looked at Karp with a hint of puzzlement on their faces, hearing that Vice Admiral Karp was also here, these admirals thought that the results of this naval headquarters plan could be greatly increased.
But in the end, when they heard that Lieutenant General Karp did not participate, everyone couldn't understand that even if Karp had important things to do, it was only a day's delay, and as far as everyone knew, Karp had nothing to do recently.
When Tsuru said this, Karp also put away the smile on his face, and his face gradually became serious.
"It's enough to leave the matter to Karp this time, and this is what I proposed to Sengoku, and Sengoku agreed", Karp said and glanced at the pheasant, "As for the reason, you should also be clear."
Of course, Tsuru and Karp understood the reason, and the rest of the vice admirals were puzzled, but they could probably guess the reason.
Nowadays, there are only two admirals in the navy, and it is enough to have two admirals to deter in normal times, but it is not enough if there is any unexpected situation.
Just like this situation, the new world suddenly rioted, and all the generals went, "Heavenly Gold" is a tribute to the Tianlong people, and it can't be ignored, this kind of thing must be a general to deter, and only a general is qualified to command so much naval combat power.
Therefore, the addition of a general must be put on the itinerary, and the same qualifications in the huge navy are Vice Admiral Kuzan and Vice Admiral Karp. But Karp thinks the general is too tired and has refused to promote the general many times, so the person who can be promoted is Kuzan.
Admirals not only need strength, but also need to have enough prestige in the navy, that is, combat performance, this plan is not only to encircle and suppress pirates, but also to prepare for the promotion of Qingkuzan to admiral.
In the first half of the Great Voyage, with Karp's strength, he was able to crush these pirates, but the pirates of the New World had already been intercepted by the Admiral, so they had no chance to participate in this matter.
Dove Langming didn't have the idea to let them participate, if the New World Pirates also participated, and wanted to get the 'Heavenly Gold', Dof Langmingo's strength was not enough.
"Thank you, Lieutenant General Karp," Kuzan whispered.
can make Kuzan, who is not good at expressing feelings, say such things, which shows Kuzan's gratitude to Karp in his heart.
Karp waved his hand, "I just proposed this matter, and you still have enough strength on your own, so the Navy Headquarters will plan it like this."
Immediately after that, Karp changed his words and said solemnly: "However, I hope you don't live up to Zefa's expectations of you."
"Hmm!" the pheasant nodded slowly.
When Crane heard Karp's words, he couldn't help but roll his eyes at Karp, "You're embarrassed to say that others, it's enough for you to take care of yourself, and you yourself still refuse to be promoted to general many times for trouble."
"Hey, hey..." Karp didn't speak, just touched his head and smiled a lot, Tsuru was really not wrong.
"Oh, by the way", Karp suddenly thought of something, and asked, "Little Crane, why are you here this time, aren't you in the New World?
"It's not your fault," Tsuru replied angrily.
"I!" Karp pointed to his nose, looking innocent, he hadn't done anything, what was his business.
"This time the matter is related to the Tianlong people, and it also involves the major member countries in the world, and the world government attaches great importance to it, so of course the navy has to treat it more heavily."
"I was going to send you here, but in the end, you stinky old man didn't want to come because of the trouble, and recommended someone Kuzan, and the Warring States had to bring me who had just returned to the headquarters just in case."
This is also why, there were no very powerful pirates in the first half of the Great Voyage, but the navy sent a strong lineup of admiral-level combat power, four lieutenant generals, and nine rear admirals, all of which were also because of the Celestial Dragons.
Last time, the Holy Land Mary Joy was actually attacked by people and thousands of slaves were let go, and the Draconians were very angry about this, although because at the expense of the Seventh Branch, the Draconians were not angry, but the Draconians still had a big opinion on the navy.
If the 'Heavenly Gold' goes wrong this time, I'm afraid that the Celestial Dragons will take advantage of the problem to play, and the navy will have to fall into passivity again.
"I'm sorry, I didn't know you were at the Navy Headquarters so coincidentally", but looking at Karp's face, there was no sincerity in apologetic, and he was not surprised by this.
Touching his stomach, Karp proposed, "Let's go, let's go eat, it's strange to be hungry standing here."
"By the way, everyone should be hungry after a long journey, and we have already prepared a meal."
The crane and the pheasant glanced at each other, and the two also nodded in agreement, it is better to eat first, as for the later meeting, let's talk about it next, anyway, the time is not in a hurry.
ps: Today's four more, the first one is presented, I hope you like it.
