"I'm against it, you're just joking with the lives of your subjects." Pimes blushed and roared at the king present.

The splatters of saliva and the scarlet muscles made Pimez look not like the king of a country at all, but a roadside quarrel.

Kobra looked at Pimax worriedly.

Pimes, the king of the kingdom of Gleevey, is one of the few kings in Kobra who can identify with him.

Kobra's gaze swept across the room, and all but a few of the kings had mocking smiles on their faces.

Sure enough.

"Oh, if His Highness Pimax doesn't agree with us, then our Highness Pimeth will be able to bear these expenses, and our Boyatu Kingdom is not as rich as your Grevey Kingdom." Angel paid no attention to the already ugly faces of the naval representatives attending the meeting of the member states.

As she spoke, Angel began to dig her nostrils and speak, not caring about her status as king.

“pong。” Pimax slapped the conference table in front of him with a loud bang.

"After Whitebeard's death, more and more pirates on this sea are fighting for the empty space of Whitebeard, and the number of pirates is also rising, and at this time, you actually want to reduce the military expenditure provided to the navy to two-thirds of the original."

"What's the problem? His Highness Pimes. Angel casually flicked off the boogers stuck to his fingertips and said mockingly. The navy is not the army of my Boyatu Kingdom, and as for the pirates, it is naturally solved by my army. Since my army is able to deal with pirates, I didn't directly cut off the navy's military spending, isn't that enough? ”

In the world of One Piece, in addition to the navy, each country also has its own army, otherwise there is no way to resist the endless pirates by relying on the navy alone.

What's more, wars between kingdoms, bandits, rebels, and navies will not interfere.

Moreover, the islands where most of the naval bases are located are basically not owned by any one country.

This is one of the reasons why these kings wanted to cut the military spending of the navy.

……

"You guys?!" Pimes's fingers trembled slightly, pointing to the kings in front of him, especially Angel.

Unlike the Boyatu Kingdom in the Western Sea, the Grevec Kingdom, which is in the center of the first half of the Great Voyage, understands the horror of pirates, even if it is the Grevec Kingdom with deep heritage.

There is no way to rely on the strength of your own country to deal with the swarming pirates.

There are three naval divisions in the kingdom of Grevey, which is why Pimes is adamant about this proposal.

After all, compared to a stable kingdom army, it is easier to give birth to strong people in the pirates and navy that are constantly fighting.

……

"Pimes, according to the convention, as long as more than half of the people agree, then my proposal is passed, then let's start voting!"

Angel is tired of arguing with Pimes, who in Angel's opinion is nothing more than an idiot.

He is obviously for the interests of various kings, and Pimes will actually fight for the interests of the so-called navy.

That being the case. Angel was too lazy to maintain the cheekiness of the king, and called Pimez by his name.

……

Angel's gaze swept over the kings at the meeting.

"I agree."

"Agreed."

……

"See, Pimes, Your Highness, Your Majesty." Angel's tone was mocking. "If you want, you'll be responsible for the navy's military expenses."

After seeing his proposal passed, the excited Angel didn't notice the taunt in the eyes of the kings around him.

Angel wasn't just a target they pushed out.

Although they all wanted to reduce the military budget of the navy, these kings would not be stupid enough to take the initiative to propose and leave a bad image for the naval headquarters.

After all, the first person to put forward this proposal, the Navy will not show any mercy, and the reason for shooting the first bird is the most obvious.

And they're not Angel, who gets carried away after a few words of praise.

……

"You guys are unreasonable." Pimez slapped the table and left the council in anger.

"What a disgrace to be a king." Angel continued to taunt.

Hearing this, Kobra became more and more disgusted with Angel, but Kobra was not going to leave the venue as angrily as Pimes, after all, there was still a part of the meeting that was not over yet.

"Alright, let's move on to the next meeting." Beatham came out smiling and playing the round.

……

Headquarters of the Navy.

"The king of the kingdom of Boyatu." Akainu looked at the information that came back, and the expression on his face became slightly pale.

"In this case, it is good to withdraw all the naval soldiers of the Boyatle Kingdom, and all the naval bases on the surrounding routes will be transferred to other routes."

"Yes, Marshal Sakakis." The clerk recorded all of Akainu's orders.

"You go down first!"

"Yes, Marshal Sakakis." The clerk bowed and left Akainu's office.

……

"Good." When the clerk left, Akainu's face was completely pulled down.

Previously, the operation to enter the new world was blocked by the red-haired Shanks.

It was originally a blow to Akainu's radical actions, although this is not a good thing, after all, after the world conscription, although the power of the navy has expanded rapidly, it has exposed a lot of problems, including the problem of naval military spending.

And this time at the meeting of the member states of the world, the proposal put forward is undoubtedly a knife in the back of the navy, and it is still quite a fatal knife.

In this regard, there is no way for the navy to recover, but it still needs to make a corresponding posture, even if it will cause a large number of civilian casualties.

"Look, the Navy needs a stable revenue stream." Akainu took the phone bug on the desktop and called Tsuru.

In order to better control the navy, the world government completely limited the navy's finances.

And before he completely turns his face with the world government, Akainu will not recklessly break the tacit understanding between the two.

……

"What?" When he heard Angel's actions at the World Conference of Member States, Watt burst into tears.

is different from Angel, who has fun and wantonly makes national policies.

Watt, who is an old man, understands the consequences of this incident best.

As a country that proposes to reduce naval military spending, although the navy will not take the initiative to attack the Kingdom of Boyatle, it will undoubtedly withdraw all the troops of the Navy stationed in the Kingdom of Boyatle, so that the pressure on pirates faced by the Kingdom of Boyatu will be greatly increased.

Moreover, after losing the protection of the navy, the Kingdom of Boyatle still needs to provide two-thirds of the previous annual military expenses, which is an extremely loss-making business.

However, at this point, Watt could only smash his teeth and swallow it in his stomach.
