Chapter 147 Porusalino Fell Into a Trap!
General Zefa looked at the Warring States Marshal who looked sad, confused, and he really couldn't understand why the latter was still crying. But suddenly, an electric light flashed in General Zefa's mind...
(These tears should be tears of joy...I heard that the Golden Lion even had no ashes, so I was extremely happy! And the reason why I was sad was because of the heavy losses of nine warships!)
(As for shouting Porusalino's name...is it also because he is happy? After all, if this kid is still awake, he will definitely ask him for the bonus...)
(What a ruthless marshal, Warring States Period... After being a comrade with you for so many years, I discovered for the first time that you, who is known as the Buddha of the Warring States Period, are actually such a person...)
General Zefa was as imaginative as Marshal Warring States, and just when he was imagining, the latter had already walked to his side and said in a choked voice:
"This guy Porusalino, although he is usually a foul-mouthed guy with an improper attitude, loves to fish for fish at work, and even has office romances...but I have always known that he is a good navy! Let's burn him and scatter his ashes. In the sea of my hometown..."
(Sengoku! Using the excuse of losing the battleship, you actually want to raise the ashes of Porusalino?!)
"...Warring States, isn't this inappropriate?"
"Did Porousarino leave any last words?"
"He did say it. He said... hmm? Last words?"
General Zefa suddenly realized something, and couldn't help but show a dumbfounded expression.
"Yes, last words..."
The Warring States Marshal wiped away his tears again.
"...Actually, Sengoku, Porusalino just lost his strength and fainted, not dead."
".......???"
"Sakaski is fine, he just hasn't come back yet."
"..."
For a moment, Marshal Warring States was too embarrassed to speak, and General Zefa was also embarrassed and didn't know what to say. Fortunately, the aftermath of the explosion that Porusalino had explained in advance occurred, resolving the current deadlock - around the Oris Square, the glass windows of several buildings were directly shattered due to the aftermath of the explosion. .
Marshal Sengoku immediately got into work mode and ordered the marines present to disband and disperse in small teams to various parts of Marineland to see if there was anyone who needed help due to the aftermath of the explosion.
After commanding these marines, Marshal Warring States looked at General Zefa again and said in a deep voice:
"Zefa, find someone to take Porusalino down to rest. Come to my office and report the details of the previous battle."
"OK."
General Zefa nodded, took out the phone bug he carried with him, and prepared to contact Major General Fina.
However, at this moment, Marshal Warring States suddenly interrupted him:
"Zefa, who are you going to notify?"
"Major General Fina, Porusalino's secretary? Or Gion, Xiaozuru's sister..."
"Don't call them two names for this kind of thing,"
Marshal of the Warring States Period smiled, and that smile looked very strange in the eyes of General Zefa. "You go directly to the medical office. Some time ago..."
General Zefa showed a horrified expression at first, and then his expression turned into ecstasy, and he nodded hurriedly!
"No wonder you became the marshal of the navy, Sengoku! You really deserve it! You are so insidious... I mean, well done!"
…
Just as General Zefa and Marshal Warring States were working together to prepare a surprise for Polusalino, on a small island in the new world, Giggs, who was making bombs for the Golden Lion, was having a meeting with the Golden Lion's deputy Yatok. Si was having a conversation. And now the second in command of the remnants of the Golden Lion, the undercover "Silver Bullet" Frazier sent by Porusalino is also sitting on the side.
A few minutes ago, the tea cups in their hands collectively shattered with a bang, and the temporary wooden house they were in shook slightly. Seeing this, Giggs immediately showed a smile on his face.
"It's my bomb! My bomb exploded! Ah... I can feel the shock wave of the explosion from so far away. It is indeed the most outstanding work of my life!! Art is explosion!!!"
Compared to the ecstatic Giggs, Aatrox's mood was obviously much lower. He asked in a slightly sad tone:
"Are you sure this bomb really exploded? Mr. Giggs..."
"How could I not be sure about a bomb I made with my own hands?"
Giggs lay on his back on the chair and said lazily, "And even without this shock wave, I can still use my fruit ability to sense that the bomb exploded... Well, but does your boss Shi Ji have it? He succeeded in blowing up Marinefando, I don't know about that. It's possible that the navy intercepted him halfway, and then the bomb exploded..."
"I see."
Aatrox nodded with a heavy heart.
When the Golden Lion took Ziggs to this secret island, he confessed some things privately to the extremely excited Aatrox, including his plans after this action.
The Golden Lion bluntly told Aatrox at the time that his action was revenge at all costs, even if the result was death. And even if revenge is successful and he survives by chance, he will choose to commit suicide.
After all, there is nothing left in his life that is worthy of nostalgia and pursuit. Instead of lingering in an ugly state, it is better for him to draw a beautiful end to his life.
He told Aatrox that with the explosion as a sign, once the bomb exploded, the Golden Lion Pirates would be disbanded immediately - the remaining people would be free to choose their own future path without having to bear his name. .
Of course Aatrox didn't want to see the boss he followed make such a decision, but he, who was familiar with the Golden Lion's temper, also knew that once the Golden Lion said such words and made such a decision, it would never change.
After trying to persuade and getting scolded, Aatrox could only accept the Golden Lion's choice.
In addition to these things, the Golden Lion also told Aatrox a few words about the deal with Giggs.
"Now that what I promised Shiji is completed, then the deal he promised me should also be completed..."
Giggs smiled and said, "You are the deputy of the Golden Lion, right? He should have told you that from now on, everything left by the Golden Lion Pirates belongs to me. Whether it is treasure, personnel or past Relationship channels…”
"Yes, the Admiral did say so. But he should have told you, Mr. Giggs. We still need to use a code to confirm..."
"Ah, he did say,"
Giggs nodded, then frowned and looked at Fraser, who was sitting next to Aatrox, "But is it okay for the third person to be here?"
"No problem, Fraser can be trusted."
"Okay then... the secret word that Shiji gave me was 'LION'... right?"
"Yes, that's right,"
Aatrox smiled and nodded. He took off the knife from his waist and knelt on the ground on one knee, "Now, I, the former senior leader of the Golden Lion Pirates, Sword Haoya Tox, express your allegiance to our new boss, Lord Giggs!"
Seeing Aatrox kneeling on one knee with a respectful tone and holding a knife in both hands, Giggs couldn't help but feel even more happy. He reached for the knife and smiled:
"You swordsmen, why have you all learned the Bushido of Wano? Why do you all like to do this...ah!!!"
Aatrox, who was kneeling on one knee, suddenly rose up at lightning speed, and the knife in his hand was instantly unsheathed! With a sharp cold light, Aatrox's knife slashed across Giggs' neck. As blood spurted out, the latter's head rolled to the ground with a "gurgling" sound.
Looking at Giggs' head on the ground, whose eyes were still wide open and his expression was still horrified, Aatrox wiped his knife with the clothes on the latter's body and said expressionlessly:
"Sure enough, just like Boss Shiji said, the reason why you can get such a high bounty is entirely because the fruit ability is too powerful and you slaughter a large number of civilians... In fact, you are weak in domineering and physical skills. If you're so bad, you can't even take one of my moves."
"How stupid. A lion will always be a lion, even if it dies. Will it share its belongings with the hyena? From the moment you said that secret phrase, your death has been doomed..."
After saying this, Aatrox put the knife back into its sheath and tucked it into his waist. Then he turned to look at Frazier, who looked calm on the outside but was actually horrified inside, and said in a slightly calmer tone:
"According to the Admiral's last wish, the Golden Lion Pirates will be disbanded from now on. We are all free to choose our own future path... What are your plans? Frasier."
"...What are your plans? Lord Aatrox."
Fraser asked rhetorically.
"Me? I plan to create a new pirate group, recruit some trustworthy partners, and then complete the unfinished business of the Golden Lion Admiral on this Vilmeio Island..."
"If that's the case, can I join you?"
"Of course, I welcome it."
Aatrox laughed.
Fraser also laughed: "But have you thought of a name for the new pirate group, Lord Aatrox?"
"Ah, it's called the 'NEW Golden Lion Pirates'..."
…
The news that the legendary pirate Golden Lion, who had just escaped from Impel Down City, tried to attack the Navy headquarters Marinefando but failed, and was killed by Navy Admiral Zefa's team, spread throughout the world the day after his death. "World Economic News", the world government's officially designated partner newspaper, responded quickly, urgently printed more copies, and published a commentator's article personally written by its president, Morgans.
In this article, Morgans pointed out that "the death of the Golden Lion is another milestone victory for the Navy in safeguarding justice" and "the Navy, riding on the momentum, will suppress and target pirates around the world to an unprecedented level." "The height of", "Big moves will continue"...
While Morgans was writing this article overnight, Porosalino fell into a coma, so he did not get Porosalino's opinion and wrote this article purely based on his own judgment.
In fact, his judgment was very accurate. Because just the day after he sent this article, Holy Land Marie Joa issued an emergency notice to convene a ‘World Conference’ to the kings of the participating countries of the World Government.
The so-called World Conference refers to a large-scale conference that high-level world governments and dignitaries from various countries participate in every four years to discuss security and order around the world, including world nobles. The meeting place is located in the center of the world, the Holy Land Marie Joa. It can be said to be the highest-level and most important meeting in the entire pirate world.
Since the beginning of the World Conference, there has never been a precedent of urgent convening or postponement. The reason for setting this precedent this time is entirely because the topics of this meeting are too important and related to the vital interests of more than 170 member countries of the World Government. And to put it bluntly, this meeting will determine the future direction of the world to a large extent.
Of course, "the conference talks about small things, and talks about big things in small things" - the topic of the meeting was actually determined by a high-profile small meeting the night before the World Government issued the notice to convene the meeting. The location of this small meeting was among the absolute core powers of Pangu City. There were only eight people attending the meeting: all the Five Old Stars, the World Government Army Commander Kong, Navy Marshal Sengoku, and Army Marshal Wadesi.
Among these eight people, Field Marshal Waldersee came to make up the numbers because of the requirements of his position, and the remaining seven were considered the actual participants and spokespersons of the meeting.
"Sengoku, you are the Admiral of the Navy. How many people do you think is appropriate for this world conscription?"
Wu Laoxing, who had been sitting on the sofa and had neatly combed blond hair, asked.
Although the Warring States Marshal wanted to loudly answer 100,000 people, he also knew that such a number was simply unrealistic, so he reported the results of his previous discussions with Lieutenant General He and General Zefa:
"The number in my mind is at least 30,000, and no more than 50,000 at most. If the number is small, such a large-scale global conscription will be meaningless; if the number is large, military expenditure will be a big problem. "
"Thirty thousand to fifty thousand people? The number of people we are discussing is actually about the same..."
The bald Five Old Star with two splayed beards nodded, "What do you think, Sora?"
"I think thirty-five thousand people is a more reasonable number,"
Sora replied, "But compared to ordinary conscription, in order to suppress the pirates who are ready to take action after Roger dominates the Grand Line, I think it is necessary to fill the navy's high-level combat capabilities. That guy Garp has always refused to be promoted to general. , Zefa’s burden is a bit too heavy on his own.”
"We agree with what you said,"
A smile escaped from the corner of Wu Laoxing's mouth, wearing glasses and holding a long sword in his arms, "So Warring States, you have to pay more attention and do more work from now on."
"Um?"
"Those three natural types in your navy are good candidates for training. You must keep an eye on them and let them grow into government pillars who can hold the position of navy admiral in the shortest possible time. Especially the Sparkling Fruit ability user Bo Rusalino, his strength is worthy of recognition, but his work attitude needs to make him work more seriously."
".I see."
The Warring States Marshal's mouth twitched slightly and he nodded awkwardly. He really didn't expect that Porusalino's reputation for fishing had actually spread to Wulaoxing.
But this is definitely a good thing for the Navy.
(Porushalino, Porushalino, your good days are coming to an end)
