Chapter 5 I Am the Navy
"Oops, oops...... It's really irritating, things go on and on, endlessly...... When will I be able to retire...... Hey, let's retire after this big event......"
Naval Headquarters, Marin Vando. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info The Admiral Buddha no Sengoku, who was in the office at this time, was clutching his head in distress. The dark hair was scratched messily by him, and the already old face had a bit more vicissitudes.
What can make him, a famous wise general, so crazy, must be the news related to the three major forces. He had just appointed "Blackbeard" Tiqi as the new Seven Martial Seas, and at the same time imprisoned the disobedient "Sea Man" Jinping in Impelton. Unexpectedly, another veteran Seven Martial Seas, Moonlight Moria was actually defeated in his lair......
It's no wonder that the Warring States are so irritable, this is really a wave of unsettled. Especially according to the information sent, the guy who defeated Moria was actually ......
"Bang!", Sengoku slammed the document on the desk, and then yelled at Karp, who was digging his nose and swaying in with a figure-eight step, "Look at the good things your grandson has done!!"
"Ahh......h
"Look at what good things your family has done...... It's either a pirate or a revolutionary army, how can you not educate well as a navy!" Sengoku's words were full of resentment. However, it is also true, not mentioning the position of Vice Admiral Karp, but his status as a naval hero, and as a result, the children and grandchildren who have been educated are all against the navy one by one......
Not to mention Karp's son, Monchi D. Dragon is now the leader of the revolutionary army, and even the youngest grandson is now the one who defeated the Seven Martial Seas......
From this point of view, it is natural that Sengoku is angry, right? As a naval hero, Karp turned out to give birth to a criminal family or something...... What could be more ironic than that?
"That's right, damn it, I let him be a navy a long time ago, and I actually went to be a pirate......" Karp said with a look of remorse, but in a blink of an eye, he turned into a proud look, "But being a pirate is also very powerful!
Sengoku: "......"
"Aha, don't laugh, what's the matter with you coming to me?" Karp gritted his teeth, although he stopped laughing, but the smile in his eyes did not decrease in the slightest.
"I should have known your ...... a long time ago," Sengoku rubbed his forehead in annoyance, as if sighing, "I shouldn't have agreed to you chasing after the Judicial Island incident...... Forget it, though......"
Taking a deep breath, Sengoku looked at Karp seriously and said, "So, since we have had close contact, let's tell me what you have learned." The straw hat boy is already an existence that cannot be underestimated. ”
"Hey, Luffy, it's my lovely grandson!" Karp wondered, but replied sharply.
"I'm not asking this...... I'm asking, Straw Hat Boy, and his ship's ......" Sengoku's eyes flickered slightly, but he still asked patiently.
"Boat, oh, do you mean the Sunshine? It's a good ship! worthy of my grandson, ahahahaha......" Karp laughed excitedly again at the mention of the ship.
"Bang!" Sengoku clapped his hands on the table, stood up suddenly, and roared angrily, "Don't give me any attention to him, you know what I'm going to ask, Lieutenant General Karp!"
"Boom !!"
With a louder bang, Karp slapped the table with both hands, glared at Sengoku without concession, and roared back in a louder voice: "You are already going to put one of my grandsons to death! Do you want me to send another grandson to hell with my own hands!!?
Sengoku's eyes almost wanted to burst into flames, but under Karp's gaze, he endured it. Taking a deep breath, he said in a low voice, "You know! That's the offspring of sin...... He's not your grandson!!!" In the end, Sengoku couldn't bear the anger in his heart after all, and he gritted his teeth a little more when he spoke.
"No, you're wrong. Karp shook his head, his gaze not wavering, "Ace is my grandson." It always has been. ”
"......" Sengoku was speechless. After a long silence, he sat back in the position of marshal. At this time, he felt the hot heat of the chair under his buttocks......
What Karp said, why didn't he know?
You know, he and Karp are in the same navy, and they are still old comrades-in-arms for decades. Both at work and privately, the relationship between the two is very close, which is why Sengoku can tolerate Karp's recklessness in his office. If it were someone else, even a few admirals of the Navy, who would have such treatment!
He was the nominal commander-in-chief of the Navy no matter what. And how can the name of a wise general be insulted?
So what kind of mood Karp has, he knows it. And in the matter of Ace, he also has a little guilt. However, the ass decides the head. Since he is sitting in the position of marshal of the navy, many things are no longer something he can do by temperament......
With a sigh, Sengoku said in a somewhat unhurried voice: "Karp...... You know, you're a Navy ......"
"Well, I know. Karp nodded, and said in a firm tone, "But I'm also a grandfather." Now, this grandfather of mine is going to visit my grandson, you ...... Don't stop me. ”
After speaking, Karp glanced at Sengoku deeply, said no more, and turned to leave.
Karp ...... Don't be impulsive......" Sengoku rubbed his forehead and sighed softly, his voice full of powerlessness.
Karp stopped halfway through his movements, half-turned and looked back at Sengoku, with a smile in his eyes, and his tone seemed to be filled with a sense of glory: "I am the navy." ”
Then, Karp strode out without looking back.
Inside the house, Sengoku hid his face and smiled, and the same proud voice muttered to himself: "Yes, we are all navy ......"
"But you're old, Karp...... We...... It's all old......"
The voice turned low, and soon became snoring. Sengoku actually fell asleep in a chair because he was tired. It's just that unlike the previous irritable and fiery mood, there was a little more relaxed smile on his face.
……
Although the decision of the Navy Headquarters began to spread to the world after it was made. But in the midst of the great shipping routes, surrounded by the vast expanse of the sea, each island is relatively independent and self-contained. No matter how quickly the whistleblower flies, at least so far, the town where Crockdahl is located has not received any news about it.
At this time, in the most prosperous restaurant in the town, a huge scroll of charts was spread, and Crockdahl and Jenny Bonney, who had eaten and drunk, were pointing to the charts and discussing. More precisely, it was Jenny Bonnie who spoke hand to hand, and Crockdahl listened like a cloud of mist.
For Crockdahl, who will get lost at will on the sea, whether he understands or not is the best portrayal of this time.
"The old lady really convinced you!" Jenny Bonny slapped her forehead helplessly, "How did someone like you become a sea thief?
"Hahaha, this is the protagonist, you don't understand. Crockdahl looked at him with contempt and said, "Besides, as a captain you don't have to know this, that's something a navigator needs to consider." The captain of the ship, which means the length of a ship, is the soul and cohesion of a pirate group!"
"Aha, you don't have to be proficient, but as a captain, you have to know this knowledge, right?" Jenny Bonny looked at Crockdahl with an idiot look.
"Cut...... I'll get the time to introduce Monchi D. Luffy to you......" Crockdahl pouted and shook his head lightly with a lonely look of a master.
"Pretending to be a fool......," Jenny Bonny glared at Crockdahl, but the topic returned to the chart, pointing to a little on the map and saying, "The island we are on is not particularly prosperous, but it is also one of the seven magnetic lines. It is also the closest road to the Chambord Islands. But ......"
After a pause, she continued, "This route is also the least used by pirates. ”
"Oh, what is the reason for this, is the route dangerous?" asked Crockdahl in surprise.
"It's not, it's the safest and fastest of all routes. Jenny Bonny shook her head, her face grim, "By the way, do you know the name of this island?"
"Name, I'll take a look......" Crockdahl searched the chart, and then said in a somewhat hesitant tone, "Magnet...... archipelago?"
"That's right! The Magnet Islands! This is an archipelago of several islands. But these islands are connected to each other and are a whole. At the bottom of the island, there's a huge natural magnet......" Jenny Bonny said, and the expression on her face became quite solemn, and her change made Crockdahl feel a little nervous.
"Although the Great Voyage has seven magnetic field lines running through the entire route, these so-called magnetic field lines are only approximate. Some of the middle will all coincide, and some of the magnetic field lines will have breakpoints...... And here, that's one of the breakpoints!"
Jenny Bonny snapped her finger at the chart, where their island was. Then she looked up, looked at Crockdahl and said, "You can look at your pointer." ”
"Huh, pointers?" said Crockdahl, a little embarrassed, "that ...... Lost, haha......"
"What?!Are you an idiot?!Are you losing the pointer?!" Jenny Bonny looked at Crockdahl in disbelief.
"Isn't that obvious, or who will rub your boat? Crockdahl looked at Jenny Bonnie as a matter of course, like he was looking at a fool.
Then, rightfully so, his head was bitten......
