Naval Headquarters, Marshal's Office.
When Lei Yin went there, he found that all the senior officials were present. The three generals, most of the lieutenant generals of the headquarters, and Garp also came over later.
Marshal Sengoku sat in the chief position, holding a document in his hand, and other senior generals sat in rows.
What's going on? Why such a big battle? Is a war about to break out?
While Lei Yin was muttering in his heart, General Qing Zhi spoke: "Alala, today's protagonist is here."
"Protagonist? Me?" Lei Yin thought for a moment, then sat in his seat.
Warring States looked at Lei Yin, stood up with the document, and cleared his throat: "Are all the generals attending the meeting this time?"
Second lieutenant messenger: "Report to the marshal, everyone is here."
"Very well, here are two important orders to be announced. First, after research and decision by the headquarters, the pirate Charlotte Cracker will be publicly executed in fifteen days. The headquarters will mobilize 50,000 elite navy personnel to go to Navy G-5 branch, and recruit His Majesty the Seven Warlords to fight together."
Execution? Fifty thousand marines to go to the G-5 branch? Recruit the King's Shichibukai? Combat?
It seems that Lei Yin was right, a war is really going to break out?!
The lieutenant generals who heard this order for the first time could not help but widen their eyes, and Lei Yin was also very surprised.
Looking at the somewhat surprised looks in the lieutenant generals' eyes, Sengoku gave an explanation: "Yes, the execution of Cracker is, firstly, to scare the pirates, and secondly, this is an excellent opportunity to reduce or eliminate Big-O!"
This move made by the Warring States Period is really high! Krick is not only the son of Charlotte Lingling, but also her right-hand man. If Krick is executed, she has no reason not to send troops!
This was exactly the same as the public execution of Ace in the original war, which attracted Whitebeard. It was a common tactic of Marshal Sengoku.
After hearing this, many lieutenant generals with average qualifications just felt: things are going to change.
At this time, Lieutenant General Taotu had been promoted to Lieutenant General and said: "But why should the battlefield be built in the G-5 branch?"
Vice Admiral He Dao, Chief of General Staff of the Navy: "The G-5 branch is the naval branch closest to the Big-O territory. Moreover, Lei Yin captured Krick, so he has the greatest hatred for Lei Yin. We You can set up a naval blockade at the G-5 branch and just wait for the Big-O to arrive!"
Lieutenant General Dalmecia: "However, even if we add the Shichibukai and Leiyin, we may not be Big-O's opponent. What's more, not all the Shichibukai will come, or even none of them."
Dalmecia's words are correct. On the surface, the Shichibukai is a subordinate of Masafu, but in fact he is regarded as an enemy by both the navy and pirates. In the eyes of the pirates, the Shichibukai is Zhengfu's lackey; in the eyes of the navy, the Shichibukai is an enemy who may betray him at any time. The relationship between them is just mutual use, so they usually ignore Zhengfu's orders.
Although Lei Yin is powerful, it is impossible for him to single-handedly lead the four to five thousand navy of the G-5 branch to fight against the Four Emperors who dominate the sea.
"After research and decision by the headquarters, regarding the deployment of defense in the G-5 branch, General Qingzhi Kuzan is appointed as the commander-in-chief, Lei Yin is appointed as the deputy commander-in-chief, and Taotu, Mole, Huoshaoshan, Dalmecia, and Stokabe are Eight lieutenant generals, 24 major generals, and more than 50,000 people are stationed at the G-5 branch. Generals Akainu and Kizaru, and Lieutenant General Garp serve as backup troops. Once it is determined that the G-5 branch will go to war, they will immediately go to the battlefield. .”
It turns out that the Warring States Period had already thought of everything.
If all three generals of the Navy's highest combat power headquarters and elite lieutenant generals such as Garp and Mole are dispatched to the G-5 branch, it will inevitably create a void in the Navy headquarters. If Big-O were to catch the enemy by surprise and coat them from under the sea, bypassing the G-5 branch, and directly lead a large army to attack the Navy headquarters, the Navy would lose more than the gain. After all, big-o is a Yonko, not an ordinary little pirate like a cat or a dog. He also has three generals with a bounty of about 1 billion, so his strength cannot be underestimated.
"But, will Big-O definitely come to attack?"
Lieutenant General He, Chief of General Staff: "Big-O is moody and has a bad temper. In addition, the person arrested this time is Cracker, so the possibility of attack is very high."
Lieutenant General Taotu looked at Lei Yin with a charming smile: "With such a big war breaking out, Lei Yin actually became our deputy commander. As a teacher, I really feel a little relieved."
Taotu looked at Leiyin with a slightly strange look. Lieutenant General Cha Dou had been secretly in love with Taotu for many years. The later general candidate in the original work felt very uncomfortable when he saw this.
"Lei Yin is fully qualified to be your deputy commander-in-chief. The second item that follows is an important appointment."
Important appointment? Everyone present pricked up their ears.
"Lei Yin, the former vice-admiral of the navy, has repeatedly performed extraordinary feats and has an outstanding battle record. After research by the headquarters and arbitration by the Holy Land Mary Joa Council, he is hereby promoted to acting admiral of the navy headquarters, codenamed Baiju!"
As soon as this was said, the entire audience fell silent.
In terms of military exploits and strength, Lei Yin is definitely qualified for this position. What surprises everyone is only his age.
Many navies start out as soldiers in their twenties and work hard for thirty or forty years before becoming a lieutenant colonel or a colonel.
Many navies were proficient in the Six Styles, but died at sea and died for their country in just one expedition.
Navy Admiral Aokiji, who was 45 years old at the time, joined the Navy at the age of 19 and studied under Kurokami Zefa. He was about 40 years old when he became an admiral.
Admiral Akainu, 51 years old at the time, joined the navy at the age of 23 at the same time as Kizaru, and became an admiral at about 45 years old.
Navy Admiral Kizaru, 54 years old at the time, joined the Navy at the age of 26, and was about 50 years old when he became an admiral.
Lieutenant General Garp was 74 years old. Luffy was 78 years old two years after the original adventure.
Lieutenant General Tsuru, who was 72 years old at the time, was 76 years old two years after the original Luffy adventure.
Marshal Sengoku was 75 years old at the time. Luffy was 79 years old two years after the original adventure.
Lei Yin was a third-class naval officer at the age of 16 and was promoted to acting admiral at the age of 20!
After seeing this resume, do you need to say anything more?
A twenty-year-old naval admiral was simply unheard of, and having such outstanding military exploits that the world political talisman wanted to add an admiral to the list was even more unprecedented.
Everyone looked at Lei Yin with eyes full of awe.
Becoming an admiral at the age of twenty is an acting role. It is only a matter of time before he becomes a full-time admiral. What will he become in the future? Marshal of the Navy? Commander-in-Chief of the Army? Even
It's probably not too much to say that such a speed is like riding on a rocket, right?
Many people don’t even dare to think about it anymore.
Lei Yin also looked confused when he heard this order. Becoming a naval admiral is certainly more powerful and more popular, but don't forget that if the Tianlong people are in trouble, they will turn from generals commanding thousands of troops to personal bodyguards in seconds.
Lei Yin hates the word "running dog" very much.
A kid who became an admiral at the age of twenty might start a war with the four emperors again. Is there any big change going to happen in this world?
