178 The Great Contest of the Sixteen Branches
Great Voyage.
Naval Headquarters, Marin Vando.
In the conference room, the core high-level leaders widened their eyes and looked at the Warring States.
All of them have four words written on their faces, you are kidding me!!
"Ahem, I know it's weird, but it's true!"
"Hancock, however, has removed the throne of the Amazon Lily, and is currently in the sixteen branches of Sean."
"Her strength, you all know it, even the elite lieutenant general can't please her, she is very close, or she has reached the level of Peach Rabbit."
"In addition, the people of the Nine Snakes have never done anything to slaughter civilians, even if they are pillaging."
"The most important thing is that I already know her motives for joining the Navy, and she is not playing any bad ideas, so my opinion is to agree!"
In the conference room, everyone was a little confused.
So, is this thing true?
"Marshal, you said that there is no problem with her motives, so what is the motive that makes this woman want to become a navy?"
After everyone pondered for a moment, Akainu asked first.
Even if this thing is true, but it is too weird, I want to hear it, what is the reason?
"Well, it has a lot to do with Sean!"
"I was on the phone and I overheard his conversation with Hancock, and Hancock said that it would be okay to give it to the lieutenant general, and if the rank was higher than Sean, it would have an impact on the married life..."
......
......
Hell, it has an impact on married life.
It means that these two people have seen each other, and they have reached the point of talking about marriage?
No wonder the marshal said that there was no problem with Hancock's motives for joining the Navy.
But then again, how did Sean get this woman?
"Then I'm fine!"
In the conference room, Akainu was stunned for a moment, but quickly agreed with the matter.
If it were someone else, he would still have an opinion, after all, Hancock was once a pirate.
But if it's Sean...
It doesn't seem impossible.
If there's a why, it's...
Sean has too much appetite for himself, and he gives too much.
A billion Baileys are a warship, and they will send it when they say they will send it.
In this matter, even Akainu is inevitably vulgar, although the steel giant ship cannon has no resistance at all?
"Crane, what do you think?"
"I agree, Hancock, I've learned, she's not bad by nature, but she has a little temper... What to say, well, willful, extremely willful!"
"And what are we going to do with her in the future?"
"What else can you do other than stay in the Sixteenth Branch? Don't forget why she joined the Navy!"
......
Sengoku was stunned for a moment.
That's right, I asked some stupid question.
Hancock joined the Navy because of Sean's relationship, which would have arranged for her to go to the headquarters or other branches.
Believe it or not, people won't listen to orders at all, maybe they will turn your face directly?
"Okay, it seems that it can only be like this, but two lieutenant generals of a Sihai branch are a bit exaggerated no matter how you say it."
"Marshal, I don't think you need to worry about this."
"What do you mean?"
At this moment, Akainu spoke again.
But Sengoku showed a touch of doubt, he didn't understand what the specific meaning of Akainu's words was.
"Sean, whether it is his personal strength or the strength of the naval forces under his command, has surpassed all the naval branches except G1."
"This kind of power is definitely a waste in the East China Sea, so the last time I went to the Sixteenth Branch, I asked him about his future plans."
"According to Sean, now he is laying the foundation, laying the foundation for entering the new world in the future and facing the Four Emperors."
"So Marshal, you don't have to think about whether the configuration of a branch is too exaggerated, because Sean is destined to take his team and eventually go to the New World to plant the flag for our navy."
It turns out that this is the case, Sean, the stinky boy, has already had a plan.
But it doesn't matter, this plan is similar to what I plan to do.
After all, the Navy originally had the idea of building a G-series branch in New World, and eventually let the three G-series branches become horns of each other, so as to gradually expand the Navy's control area in New World.
After this year, if Sean's strength is further strengthened, coupled with the sailors under his command who are far above average.
At that time, it seems that he will become the head of this new branch, which is also a very good option.
Thinking of this, Sengoku also made a decision.
------
Next.
Inside the marshal's office.
Looking at the document just issued by the world government, Sengoku was a little confused.
The world government did not reject its own application.
Of course, this is not surprising, originally the Warring States thought that the Five Old Stars would most likely approve this proposal.
It's just that this is passing a little too fast?
I don't know why, Sengoku always has a feeling that as long as he has something to do with Sean, he will become a green light all the way to the world government.
Is it because you are thinking too much?
In addition to this matter, the world government sent another document.
And the things on this document are somewhat interesting.
For a year, he was first deprived of the identity of the Seven Martial Seas because of Doflamingo's attack on the sixteenth branch of the Navy.
Later, Klockdahl was killed by Sean for using dancing fans to set off civil unrest in Alabastan and attempt to usurp a member country under the command of the World Government.
Now, Hancock has joined the navy, and the identity of the Seven Martial Seas has naturally been canceled.
Since then, unconsciously, three positions have been vacant in the Seven Martial Seas.
Therefore, the five old stars believe that if the vacancy is not filled as soon as possible, it will cause an imbalance between the three major forces.
And the imbalance of the three major forces will directly affect the cornerstone of world domination.
As a result, this document requesting the navy to elect a successor as soon as possible and report it to the world government was sent to Sengoku.
After putting down the document, Sengoku also sighed slightly.
It's only been a year, and the three Seven Martial Seas are gone?
And if you really want to say it, the appearance of these three vacancies is all related to Sean.
"This stinky boy is really a troublemaker!"
However, three people have to be made up at once. It's a bit tricky...
Soon, Sengoku became distressed.
After all, the position of the Seven Martial Seas is very particular, and it is not just a matter of selecting a few pirates with qualified strength.
It is also necessary to make sure that the elected people can obey the orders of the world government!
Well, even if it's just a superficial mishearing, otherwise it doesn't make any sense.
The most important thing is that the fame must be loud enough and can bring certain benefits to the navy.
"Herald!"
"Marshal!"
"Immediately notify all the generals above the rank of lieutenant general, and convene an emergency meeting in half an hour!"
"Yes, Marshal!"
------
Sixteen branches.
Sean Office.
"For you, this is an appointment just sent by the headquarters, from today onwards, you are a vice admiral, and you are classified as a vice admiral in the ranks, and you can form a direct force of 300 people, and equip a large warship."
Handing the file to Hancock, Sean said.
After taking the document, Hancock didn't even look at it, and just threw it away
On the side.
She wasn't interested in these things at all.
"None of this matters, anyway, the concubine can stay with you in the future, right?"
"That's right, but the benefits that should be taken, then you still have to take them, otherwise wouldn't it be cheap for the old man of the Warring States?"
"What you said is the same, it is true that the concubine should be diligent and thrifty, so you can help the concubine deal with it!"
"Okay, don't want the large warships of the navy, after all, that thing is too rubbish, I'll build you an ironclad ship, you can design the shape yourself, as for the three hundred people directly under the troops, so let's hand over the female soldier corps of the branch to you, anyway, they are originally your people."
Hearing this, Hancock's eyes lit up.
"Can I design the shape of the warship myself?"
"Yes, you can design the exterior without changing the original structure."
"The warriors of the Nine Snakes are also handed over to me to command?"
"Yes, anyway, the number of 300 soldiers, even if you recruit another 250 warriors from Nine Snake Island, it will all be under your command!"
"Can I take the name of the concubine of the directly subordinate troops by myself?"
"Yes!"
"The name of that unit is the Nine Snake Pirates!"
「......」
Hancock, you're not a pirate anymore!!
------
A few days later.
All the sailors who went out on a mission returned to the branch at this moment.
The first big contest of the 16th branch.
It's about to begin!
After many discussions between Sean and Lucci, the final rules are as follows.
The branch competition will be divided into two projects.
One is a physical arts event, and the other is a swordsmanship event, and all of them are eliminated system.
In the physical arts, the top eight will each receive an animal-based Devil Fruit and a Devil Fruit priority, choose one of the two.
In the swordsmanship event, the top 10 will be given a good fast knife, and the top three will be given a big fast knife.
Devil Fruits, plus famous knives!
Whether it is a physical cultivation or a naval soldier who cultivates swordsmanship.
In short, the whole branch was boiling.
Only Ace was a little depressed.
You said to participate in the physical arts program...
Without the Devil Fruit ability, he really may not be able to defeat Sophia.
Moreover, even if you win, this Devil Fruit is useless...
You can't eat the second one, test if you have the protagonist's life, right?
As for the swordsmanship project, it's even more ridiculous, I don't know swordsmanship at all!
So, this big competition is specifically for me?
However, Sean didn't pay attention to the bullied little daughter-in-law, but...
"Did Reilly teach you how to be armed and what you saw?"
"Not almost!"
"That's if you haven't learned, since you haven't learned it, where did you waste your time on the big competition!"
"But no one else has learned it!"
"Others are other people, you are you, is it possible that you have to be on par with ordinary sailors all day long?"
"I ......"
"Besides, don't you lose face by bullying those ordinary people?"
"This ......"
"Hmph, just your point, what do you say about ending the era of pirates with your own hands, hurry back and continue to cultivate domineering!"
Pulling his head, Ace went to Reilly.
Argue with Sean, he never wins!
So, don't argue with your boss, because the boss can use 10,000 high-sounding reasons to make you speechless.
------
"Sean, can the warriors of the Nine Snakes participate in this big competition?"
After learning about the branch competition, and those ranking
After the news of the reward, Hancock also immediately found Sean.
After all, this big competition was organized by Sean, and it was done by himself.
As a hostess, what is there not to do with seeking a little welfare for the warriors of the Nine Snakes?
"Of course you can, they used to be the warriors of the Nine Snakes, but now they are in the navy, so naturally they can participate."
"Then I think that there is no hope for your sailors, and all the rewards will be taken by the Nine Snake Warriors!"
"Why do you say that?"
Sean was stunned for a moment, most of the naval soldiers under his command are stronger than your Nine Snake warriors, okay?
Dao power is worth nearly a thousand, and now there are a lot of them, why is there no hope?
"Because the 50 Nine Snake warriors here are all armed colors, and according to the observations of these days, almost none of the sailors under your command have awakened to the armed colors."
Hancock said confidently.
Will this be armed, then it is completely two different levels of strength, right?
Sean, however, pouted.
Although most of the people of the Nine Snakes know the armed color, Hancock said that whether or not the armed color is two completely different levels, which Sean disagrees with a little.
With similar strength, there is really nothing wrong with this sentence.
But if the difference in strength between the two is too large, then even if the weaker one can be armed, it will not have much effect at all.
Could it be that a person with a Dao power value of 10 can learn to arm the color, and he can defeat a person with a Dao power value of 100?
Don't!!
But it also reminded Sean of one thing.
"Hancock, I've always wanted to ask you, how did the warriors of the Nine Snakes learn to be armed, it stands to reason that the basic conditions of most of them are far from reaching the level of awakening domineering, right?"
"Is there still a condition for awakening domineering? Isn't it just thrown into the Nine Snakes' Trial Forbidden Land for a month and then you can learn it?"
"Forbidden Ground?"
"Yes, all the people of the Nine Snakes will go in for a month when they reach adulthood, and about 20% of the people there can awaken the armed color, and after these people come out, they all join the Nine Snake Pirates, or the ranks of the Protector Warriors."
......
Is there really a special way to learn quickly?
"The person who didn't fail, can he awaken his domineering spirit in other ways in the future?"
"No, whoever fails, no matter what method they use, it is impossible for this generation to awaken domineering anymore, and they can only become ordinary people."
Good guys, that's disposable.
A month to decide a lifetime?
In that case, forget it.
After all, the strength of the sailors under his command is steadily increasing every day, and more than 500 is not a matter at all, and even now the vast majority of the official sailors have exceeded this standard.
Next, as long as you learn according to the normal method, it will be a matter of time before you awaken to domineering.
There's no need to gamble like Nine Snakes.
However, although he said that, Sean was still very interested in how the trial forbidden land on Nine Snake Island made people quickly awaken their domineering.
Find a time to check it out, and maybe make some big discoveries.
