At the door of the cabin, the Sengoku General patted Jikoku's shoulder and said wait for the arrangements for the meeting, and when Jikokuyichi was promoted to brigadier general, the smile on Karp's face couldn't stop at all.

The 14-year-old Commodore of the Navy Headquarters, such a promotion speed is unprecedented in the Navy, and Kuzan, who is standing with Ji Guoyuan at this time, is already a young navy that has risen rapidly.

He has strength and meritorious service, studied under Zefa, served as an adjutant under Karp, and is now a subordinate of the Warring States General.

Under the accumulation of layers of relationships, it was already two years ago when Kuzan was promoted to brigadier general. He is also around 20 years old.

But now Ji Guoyuan is even a minor, and at this age he is about to be promoted to brigadier general, and the entire navy can't find a second one.

Karp is happy, precisely because Jiguo Yuanyi is a young man he has excavated, no, a young talent. The better the development of Ji Guoyuanyi, the more it can prove the quality of his Karp's teaching and his vision for tapping talents.

When he reaches middle age, Karp is already "successful" in his career, although the position is currently Vice Admiral, and there are two grades of general and marshal above him, but his reputation in the navy is unmatched, and even the marshal is not comparable to him.

What else does Karp pursue in his career? Aside from maintaining peace on the sea in front of him, Karp doesn't want to advance in his position.

For him, a middle-aged man with a "successful career", it is more important than anything else to cultivate a young navy that can carry his will.

Originally, he pinned this "expectation" on the dragon.

But when the child grows up, he can't help his father!

As the dragon saw more and more "darkness" in the navy, he and the navy drifted apart.

The rebel son had no way to carry Karp's will, so he put this expectation on Jiguo Yuanyi.

Although it is said that Jiguo Yuanyi and him are not related to each other, but men entrust their dreams, where do they need to be related to each other?

Following the talent of the country's edge, Karp saw the hope of changing the navy!

Although strictly speaking, Ji Guoyuan is a disciple of Zefa, but so what? Is there a difference between Zefa's disciple and his disciple? Nope!

"Brigadier General~"

"It's really amazing, Yuanyi, in this way, you guys are actually at the same level as me?"

"I already didn't listen to orders, but now it's broken, I'm an adjutant......"

Kuzan said in an envious tone, and the last sentence Kuzan didn't say, just muttered in his heart.

Seeing Kuzan's envy, Sengoku and Karp also showed a bright smile on their faces, Karp walked to Kuzan's side, slapped Kuzan's back with his big palm, and said with a smile:

"Kuzan, don't envy Yuanyi."

"You're just like him, promoted!"

"Fight off the golden lion, cut off the golden lion's arm, and also get the famous sword Muku, this is the result of the joint efforts of the two of you!"

"How could we, the Navy, these guys, ignore Ling's exploits?"

"You're going to be promoted to Major General, Kuzan."

Hearing Karp's words, Kuzan also scratched his head with a smile, and did not show a look of surprise. He has been a brigadier general for a while, and his merits have also accumulated some, but most of the pirates he cleaned up were less than 200 million "small" pirates.

This time, with the merit of repelling the golden lion, the promotion to major general is a certainty.

Originally, Kuzan still fantasized about being able to become a lieutenant general, but it seems that he still thinks too much.

But even so, Kuzan is very satisfied, at least, he still presses Jiguoyuan one by one.

He, a brigadier general, has to look at his major general's face, although Ji Guoyuan has always given him a face......

"I'm lucky, Yuanyi, it looks like you still have to be my adjutant."

Hearing this, Kuzan winked his eyebrows at Ji Guoyuan. In front of Sengoku and Karp, Kuzan did not pretend to be deep, revealing the character that a young man should have.

Ji Guoyuan also shook his head with a smile when he saw this, and did not refute Kuzan's words, but said with a little emotion: "I actually have a hard time being an adjutant for you." ”

"Bastard, Yuanyi, you hard fart!"

Kuzan put his arm around Jiguo's shoulders and shouted, which immediately attracted the attention of many people.

Zhan Guo and Karp also smiled at each other when they saw Kuzan and Yuan fighting with each other.

Looking at the two people in front of them, Karp and Sengoku couldn't help but think of what they looked like when they were young, when the two of them, plus Kazuru and Zefa, were the four people with the closest relationship. The relationship between several people is also as good as that of Jiguo Yuanyi and Kuzan today.

As more and more generals gathered on the deck, Sengoku and Karp did not stay on the deck for long, and took Ji Kunichi and Kuzan into the cabin and went to the conference room.

The configuration of this warship is not as rudimentary as Kuzan's, and on this ship, not to mention the conference room, there is even a gym for the sailors to exercise.

There are seven or eight rows of chairs in the conference room, which can easily accommodate nearly 200 people at the same time.

After entering the conference room, Karp went to the first row, Sengoku walked directly to the podium, and Kuzan and Ji Guoyuan found a random seat in the last row and sat down.

After all the generals who arrived at Shuixian Star Island had gathered, Sengoku took the microphone and the phone worm, cleared his throat, and announced:

"Before the official start of the mountain meeting against the Roger Pirates!"

"We're going to start with a special award ceremony."

"Everyone also knows that not long ago, a big event happened on this sea!"

"The sea thief, the golden lion Shiji, was repelled by Kuzan, who was the brigadier general at the time, and Ji Guoyuanyi, who was the colonel at the time!"

"Moreover, we also successfully cut off one of the opponent's arms, this is the first time in these years that our navy has successfully threatened a sea pirate of this magnitude!"

"Brigadier General Kuzan and Colonel Ji Guoyuanyi have made amazing contributions!"

"Therefore, after consideration by me, Marshal Steel Gukong and others, it was decided to confer Kuzan with the rank of Rear Admiral."

"Awarded the rank of brigadier general."

"Now, we have invited our heroes to come to power."

Sengoku's words were transmitted through the microphone phone worm. The admirals who heard the news looked sideways and looked at Kuzan and Ji Guoyuan, who stood up and walked to the podium at this time.

For a while, the applause was thunderous, and some generals who were familiar with each other looked at Ji Guoyuanyi and Kuzan and whispered to each other:

"Jiguo Yuanyi, that person is Jiguoyuanyi. It's the first time I've seen it, so young! ”

"Brigadier General Kuzan, is that the one who has eaten the frozen fruit? It's really amazing, and it can actually repel the golden lion. ”

"It's really difficult for the generals of the headquarters to be promoted, such an achievement actually just made these two people rise to a higher rank."

Under the watchful eyes of many admirals from all over the world, Sengoku changed the shoulder tassels for Kuzan and Jikunien. The pure yellow shoulder spike of Ji Guo Yuan Yi was also replaced by a general-level shoulder spike with a red bottom basket tail and a golden beard.

Amid applause, this simple award ceremony also came to an end, and Ji Guoyuan and Kuzan walked off the podium and returned to their positions.

The meeting also officially entered the main topic.

"Now, let's start the combat meeting."

"Against the Roger Pirates!"

"Major General Kuzan and Brigadier General Ji Guoyuan, who were the first to arrive at Mercury Star Island, have successfully captured the crew of the Roger Pirates!"

Sengoku said, using the projection phone bug to project the photos of Shanks and Bucky directly on the white wall.

And his words immediately caused an uproar in the conference room.

"Based on this situation, I plan to change my combat strategy."

"I'm going to name this plan the Fortress Project!"
