Chapter Twenty-Three: Storoberg with a Headache
"Thank you for your hard work, you are all competent navy."
Under Bai Xiao's supervision, more than 20 navies worked together to carry the treasure tree Adam and moved the branch to the wide deck of the Saberu, and the role of the hard workers was quite good.
"You're so polite."
A naval captain barely squeezed out a smile on his face, he didn't have time to taste the humiliation in his heart, he just wanted to leave here early, after all, the other party was a man known as the 'White Devil', even if he did such a thing as unloading the mill and killing a donkey, it would not be strange.
How could Bai Xiao not guess the thoughts of these navies, and waved his hand at them: "If you don't plan to stay here with me for afternoon tea, you can leave now." ”
The navy looked overjoyed, as if they had been granted amnesty, and disappeared from the deck in less than ten seconds.
Bai Xiao waited until they were far away before launching the summons, and not long after, under the cover of seven dark shadow ninjas, Nami was brought back to the deck.
"Captain Bai Xiao, are you okay?"
As soon as she returned, Nami immediately asked with concern.
Faced with the danger of being captured, Nami not only couldn't come in handy in combat, but even transferred the combat power around Bai Xiao, she never took it for granted, so she would bury this gratitude in her heart.
"It doesn't hurt."
Bai Xiao just smiled, the battle just now was indeed not very dangerous for him, especially in comparison to the high-intensity duel with Eric.
Hearing him say this, Nami relaxed, and her attention was quickly drawn to the thick branches on the deck.
"Is this Adam the Treasure Tree?"
"That's right, with this thing, we can finally change to an ideal ship."
In Bai Xiao's eyes, although the comprehensive data of the Sabelu is very good, the oversized hull of the design has led to the abuse of many spaces and materials, and even negatively affected the performance of the ship.
Therefore, the evaluation of the Saberu as a 'good ship' at most is far from 'top-of-the-line' or even 'perfect'.
"So, have you figured out where you're going to design your new ship?"
Nami blinked, she was also quite interested in this matter, since she had decided to change ships, of course she had to change them before going to the Great Voyage.
"There's an old piece of information, I don't know if it's outdated."
"Tell me where you're going, anyway, and I'll take you there, as long as it's marked on the chart."
Nami straightened her waist and patted her chest confidently.
"Then I'm looking forward to your performance, little Nami."
"What, Captain, please don't treat me like a child, I mean it."
"Yes, cutie."
“……”
……
Headquarters of the Navy.
Stoloberry Office.
At his desk, Stoloberg was working on various documents, the content of which was more related to current affairs around the world in addition to some daily work.
After the documents were approved, the exhaustion made Stoloberry rub his brows, and the yawn was just halfway through when a quick knock on the door suddenly sounded.
Stoloberg couldn't help frowning, but he still answered patiently:
"Please come in."
As soon as he received permission, he saw a colonel of the headquarters hurriedly walk in, and from the heaviness on his face, it could be inferred that he would not bring good news.
"Lieutenant General, there is a trouble that I must report to you."
Sure enough, the colonel of the headquarters opened his mouth with a serious face.
"Tell me, what's the matter?"
Stoloberg had already tasted enough trouble when he reviewed the documents, so he simply relaxed and did not worry about the debt.
"It's about Colonel Yalisky, he ......"
Speaking of this, the Colonel of the Headquarters stole a glance at the expression on Stoloberry's face, and stopped a little at a moment's notice.
"Yariski?"
Stoloberg looked puzzled, and after a moment, he remembered something, and continued: "Didn't he run to capture that 'white demon'?" Could it be that no trace of the other party has been found until now? ”
"No, Yarisky found the 'White Devil' on Black Snake Island, but ......"
"Isn't it enough to find it, or did you accidentally let that little ghost go?"
Stoloberg's tone was a little heavier, and he straightened his face, at the meeting, Yariski had promised to take down the 'White Devil', and if he really let the other party run away, he didn't want to stay out of it.
"No, it's worse than that."
Finding that Stoloberg's train of thought was completely off the right track, the colonel of the headquarters who came to report had no time to organize the wording, and hurriedly corrected it.
"What do you mean?"
Stolobeli was slightly stunned, but soon thought of a possibility, and his eyes widened in vain.
"What are you kidding? Do you mean to say that Yariski was killed by that little imp? ”
Stoloberg's futile outburst of anger made the colonel of the headquarters panic, and his back was quickly soaked with sweat, but he didn't dare to hide it, and nodded again and again:
"You guessed it right, but it's not just Yalisky, the accompanying Lieutenant Colonel Picarro and Hammer also died on Black Snake Island."
Syllable!
"Rubbish!"
Stoloberg was furious, and the papers in his hand were slammed on the table, and the colonel of the headquarters lowered his head a little tremblingly, not daring to look at the expression on his face again.
"Shame, shame!"
"Colonel and lieutenant colonel of the dignified headquarters, not only did such a joint dispatch of combat forces not only fail to successfully complete the task, but also died at the hands of a mere imp, when did the standard of our navy reach such a threshold?"
Stoloberg cursed as he walked back and forth a dozen times along the small space inside his desk.
It stands to reason that a pirate from all over the world should not have broken into the field of vision of a high-ranking lieutenant general like Stoloberry, but the headquarters meeting against Bai Xiao was personally in charge of it.
Therefore, it was about Bai Xiao, and Stoloberry couldn't easily ignore it anyway, especially when such an unbelievable thing happened.
The atmosphere in the office stiffened to freezing point, and after a long time, seeing that Stoloberg was slightly deflated, the colonel of the headquarters who had stood for a long time muttered: "Lieutenant, Lieutenant General, I don't know you about this matter, what is your opinion?" ”
"For such villains, our navy must not tolerate them, otherwise how can there be face?"
Stoloberg's tone was resolute, but after a pause, he said:
"To be able to kill Yariski, the strength of the 'White Devil' should not be underestimated, and we must not act rashly until he launches a definite action."
"What the hell is ...... that?"
The admiral was somewhat incomprehensible.
"Such a character will never be willing to live in the ordinary East China Sea, as long as he has the intention of stepping into the great voyage, someone will naturally cut off his steps."
Speaking of this, Stoloberg's eyes flickered with coldness, and he sneered:
"'White Devil' is it?"
"If I'm not mistaken, I've just been in Rogue Town for the past two years, and that dishonest guy seems to be called the 'White Hunter', right?"
"Lieutenant Admiral, you are right, that is Mr. Smoker, who once stood out as the 'King of Recruits' in the naval recruit camp taught by Mr. Zefa, a powerful natural department, and a person with the ability of 'Smoke Fruit'!"
"If he makes a move, all problems will be solved."
The Colonel of the Headquarters nodded in agreement, without him, for these pirates who have not yet set foot on the great voyage, no matter how powerful they are, they will have no chance of winning against Smoker.
The reason is very simple, the fact that the natural Devil Fruit alone is already equivalent to an insoluble mountain, standing in front of all rookie pirates!
