Facing Shanks' inquiry, the two reserved marines immediately became unsteady. After all, Shanks' reputation was quite loud within the navy.
"Lieutenant Colonel Chaka was just here drinking tea and chatting, but this man just sent Colonel Chaka into the abyss."
"Yes, yes, we were having a good chat. Suddenly he came over, pulled out a knife and stabbed Lieutenant Colonel Chaka. Then the entire teahouse and Lieutenant Colonel Chaka disappeared!"
The two marines cried and complained to each other, as if they had been greatly wronged, but Shanks would not listen to them.
Compared to the arrogant and domineering naval bastard whom he didn't know at all, he felt that he could trust Yixiao's character more.
"Uncle, what exactly happened here, at least let me have an explanation to the superiors."
Shanks tilted his head. He looked at Yixiao. Things that could anger this man were definitely not simple. After all, Yixiao had been walking in the dark area all year round. If he would take action ruthlessly if he saw anything unfair, then his reputation would have been long gone. It resounded throughout the new world.
"Forcing girls into prostitution."
Yixiao stood on the edge of the abyss very indifferently. He just said a faint word, and then fell into silence again.
Shanks' face froze slightly, and then he glanced at the two marines beside him with some distress, "Is what this uncle said true?"
The two navy soldiers immediately shook their heads like rattles, "Of course not, absolutely not like that. Lieutenant Colonel Chaka just fell in love with the girl at first sight and wanted to get to know her..."
Shanks stretched out his hand to stop the two navy soldiers from continuing to talk. He could tell you the next three or five episodes without even having to listen.
It was just that Lieutenant Colonel Chaka, who was used to being domineering and domineering, was rejected by others, and then he wanted to use force, but he happened to be caught by Yixiao, so he received a lunch.
The thing is very simple, but it is a bit troublesome to deal with.
After all, there are too many spectators around. Once this matter is publicized, the reputation of the navy, at least the reputation of the G-3 branch, can be said to be completely ruined.
Another issue is Yixiao's favorability towards the navy. When something like this happens, Yixiao believes that the navy is a righteous force that saves the world. I'm afraid it's a bit unrealistic.
"Sometimes, trash fish can cause big trouble."
Shanks sighed, took out the phone bug, and then directly dialed the number of Lieutenant General Huo Shaoshan. He was the base director of the G-3 branch. This was the signal sent to him by Lieutenant General Garp just now.
Not long after, the phone was connected, and Shanks directly told Huo Shaoshan about the situation at the scene. Huo Shaoshan spoke in a very calm tone after being silent for a long time.
"Although I am very angry about this matter, I have checked all the active lists of the G-3 branch and there is no so-called lieutenant colonel tea card."
Huo Shaoshan's voice was not lowered. After hearing his words, Shanks already knew how to deal with the next thing.
Even if it's a bit of a cover-up, at least it can't let the navy's reputation collapse.
The two navy soldiers heard Huo Shaoshan's words. They anxiously wanted to explain something, but they were horrified to find that their heartbeats were constantly accelerating, and when they opened their mouths, no sound came out.
boom!
Not long after, the two of them knelt directly in front of Shanks. It seemed that they were frightened by Huo Shaoshan's words and knelt down to repent.
Their appearance also made the people around them a little disdainful. Where was the arrogance just now? They thought they were really the navy and could make a big news.
After learning that the troublemaker was a "fake" navy, many people watching the theater left in a hurry. Although some smart people stayed, they remained silent.
After all, both the retired Yonko of the New World and Vice Admiral Huo Shaoshan of the Navy Headquarters have defined this matter as someone pretending to be a navy, and if they would come out and act like a sensible person, wouldn't that make a mess?
Although the vast majority of the navy are righteous people, there are also a lot of evil guys who are just trying to make ends meet. No one would do such a stupid thing to offend the vast majority of the navy just for a little limelight.
"Thank you, uncle."
Watching the crowd around him gradually leaving, Shanks smiled as he slowly sheathed his staff and sword.
The two marines were unable to speak just now, and they knelt down and confessed at the same time because a smile exerted a terrifying gravity on them. People with weaker strength could not see it, but Shanks could keenly sense a sense of threat.
If he hadn't taken action with a smile, I'm afraid he would have taken action first to kill these two guys who had embarrassed the navy.
"Mr. Shanks, you saved me from being wanted. Naturally, I want to do something to repay you."
Yixiao forced a smile. If Shanks hadn't called to explain just now, when what happened here was reported, the navy would have to issue a wanted order to Yixiao even if they didn't want to.
After all, the alliance of the Navy's customers, the Four New World Governments, is also an indicator of justice on the sea today. Even if the Navy makes a mistake, it should be investigated and dealt with internally. If outsiders attack the Navy at will, they are working against the Navy.
Shanks' phone call directly saved Yixiao from the trouble of being wanted, not to mention that Shanks had already retired. In this case, he was willing to expose his position for himself. Yixiao was really grateful.
"Go get a drink?"
Ignoring the two silent fish kneeling on the ground, Shanks invited Yixiao. He felt that his idea should be realized soon.
Yixiao has nowhere to go at the moment. Although he has one million Baileys in his pocket, it was given to him by Shanks. Now that this is the case, he doesn't feel comfortable spending the money.
So, under the leadership of Shanks, a group of five people returned to the hotel where Shanks and Maginot were currently renting.
Maginot asked the hotel proprietress to help prepare some food and tea, and also prepared some wine.
Shanks can't live without wine, and the same goes for a smile. After all, strong people like them usually don't have fun without wine.
In the room, Yixiao "looked" at the table full of dishes in front of him, frowning and sighing.
"Are you thinking that there are still so many people in the world who don't have enough to eat and don't have enough clothes to wear, but we end up being extravagant and wasteful here?"
Shanks could tell at a glance what Yixiao was thinking. This was the gap in realm. Yixiao was still in a confused stage, so he couldn't calm down and move forward little by little.
After Shanks revealed his inner thoughts, he smiled and took a sip of wine. He picked up a piece of meat with bones and took a big bite, "I just offended the navy. You, the future navy admiral candidate, are like this." Isn’t it a bit wrong to entertain me with good wine and good food?”
Shanks stretched out his hand to pour a glass of wine for Yixiao. He naturally knew that Yixiao was teasing himself, so the smile on his lips did not contain any impurities. "Those people are fake navy. You are helping them by attacking them." As for the Navy, although I used to be a pirate, now I am just a civilian. On behalf of the Navy, I will give you a treat, uncle. "What's wrong with you?"
The nature of the incident has been determined, and Shanks will not dwell on it anymore. He picked up a peanut with chopsticks and threw it into his mouth, and then went straight to the point and started to smile.
"Uncle, I see that you are very strong. Have you ever thought about joining the navy?"
After Shanks finished speaking, Yixiao's drinking movement paused for a moment, and then he showed a wry smile.
"Mr. Shanks, what do you think?"
"Although I don't know much about you, uncle, but judging from the fact that you draw a sword to help when there is an injustice, you must not aspire to become a bad pirate, right?"
"Except for pirates, the only well-known forces on the sea are bounty hunters and the navy. With your age and strength, uncle, if you wanted to become a bounty hunter, you would have already become famous on the sea."
Shanks tapped the table gently with his chopsticks, "Then there must be some reason why you can't make up your mind to join the navy."
"Of course, you may also have thought about joining the New World Government, but then you won't be able to openly fight with the navy."
Listening to Shanks' somewhat forced analysis, Yixiao didn't say much. He had indeed observed all the forces, and finally felt that the Navy was the most reliable.
But what happened today made him worried about the inside of the Navy.
If he joins the navy without any recommendation, what position will he start from?
If he encountered a situation like today again, how would he deal with it?
These problems are the key reason why Yixiao cannot make up his mind to join the navy.
Let him start as a small soldier and be driven by others. His pride will not allow it.
"Uncle, I don't know about the position of Chief Naval Officer. What do you think?"
"I still have some respect with the Navy and the New World Government. At least I can promise you this position."
Shanks took a sip of tea. He looked at Yixiao with a smile and asked Yixiao to join the navy and give him the position of general. No one can guarantee this. After all, the three generals are currently at the peak of their power, not to mention the three Luffy brothers behind them. Go straight up.
It is also impossible for the New World Government to increase the number of general seats, so we must start to consider other aspects.
The principal of the Naval Academy belongs to Zefa, and no one can take it away, and it is impossible for the Navy to let a new person teach the new recruits.
As for the naval chief staff officer, this position is not suitable for Yixiao. After all, Chief He's ability is extremely outstanding.
So after all the calculations, there is only one left who has no real power, but can be regarded as below the marshal and above the general. Omatsuke is more suitable for Yixiao. It happens that Yixiao also wants to see if the navy has the ability to change the world.
Omatsu, who oversees all irregularities within the navy, is a thankless position. No matter who takes this position, there will be a feeling of betrayal and rebellion against the world.
If someone doesn't have a big heart, or doesn't have a strong enough background to sit in this position, it will be really difficult to sit on pins and needles.
It just so happens that Yixiao is alone, his own strength is incomparable, and he is not afraid of any interference from external factors. With him as the supervisor, is the Navy still afraid of another Chakamon Kamakabaka?
Here Shanks was thinking about the benefits of Yixiao being a navy commander, while Yixiao was frightened by Shanks' words.
He didn't want to start from a small soldier, but he never thought of reaching the sky in one step!
The Navy Omatsu, nominally the core position second only to the Navy Marshal, has always been controlled by World Government personnel, in order to prevent the Navy from being monolithic and having the energy and confidence to oppose the World Government.
Shanks had never met the previous chief of the navy, and heard that he had been wandering the sea, inspecting various branches.
But judging from the quality of the navy of the previous branches of the Four Seas and the Grand Line, that Omatsu is most likely an incompetent idiot.
In other words, he is an absolutely evil-minded stupid dog under the old world government.
Previously, Staff He and Warring States proposed to investigate the filth within each branch, and Warring States also ordered it. Staff He had already set out, but in the end he was stopped by the big head!
The reason was that he was responsible for this work. The Warring States Marshal started the investigation without going through him, which was a contempt for him and a lack of support for his work.
"I have undercover agents collecting evidence in various branches. What will you do if you catch my undercover agent by mistake?"
These were the original words of the big head. To be honest, when he heard these words, Garp almost hit that idiot on the head with his fist.
This was the first time he heard someone say that he accepted bribes and did not do anything in such a grand way.
If the navy hadn't been restricted by the old world government before, Sengoku would have found a way to get rid of it and choose a new Omatsu.
Fortunately, after the disappearance of the old world government, the Omatsuke also "returned to his hometown" due to illness, and now the Warring States Period is concurrently serving as the Omatsuko of the Navy.
However, the responsibilities of the Warring States Period were also heavy, and he did not make any achievements in the position of Omatsu.
Now, the appearance of Yixiao just allows Shanks to see the dawn of cleanliness within the Navy. As long as the internal impurities are eliminated and the Navy's treatment is improved, are you afraid that the Navy will not be able to usher in a new era?
You must know that the reason why the navy was difficult to reform in the past was because of the existence of the old world government. Now the new world government is thriving and developing with the sea. This is the best opportunity to eradicate the stubborn diseases left by the navy in the past.
And once the navy is completely clean, Qingshui Mo, who has been paying attention to the navy, may be happy. When the time comes, he will sacrifice his face to ask Weixi for a wave of phantom beast power. Shanks will be at least 50% sure of success!
"Mr. Rong, think about it."
After being silent for a long time, Yixiao didn't think too much about how big the cake Shanks drew was. Even though he was blind, Yixiao could still clearly sense Shanks' seriousness with his knowledge.
If what Shanks said is true, then the Navy really can go!
Let alone Omatofu, even if he can start directly as a lieutenant general, he is willing to join the navy. After all, with real power and the right to speak, he can complete his ideas bit by bit!
The most precious quality of a person is to be down-to-earth!
