Grand Line, Naval Headquarters
In the Admiral's office, Cyborg Kong was sitting at his desk. He frowned and stared at the information in front of him. In the ashtray on the desk, burned cigarette butts piled up into a hill, and a large amount of ash even overflowed. , seems to be telling the unrest of the people who let them burn...
"Damn it, King Faib is still resisting! The navy has continuously invested 30,000 troops, plus the World Government's troops, a total of more than 100,000 soldiers. How can he only gain such a small advantage? What if? If this continues, we will be dragged down!"
Cyborg Kong sighed. Since the end of the Battle of the Valley of the Gods, the management of the World Government has also welcomed new five old stars. As the so-called three things for new officials to take office, after several people discussed it, they The Faib Empire, which had participated in the Valley of the Gods War, knew a lot of secrets, and even stood on the opposite side of them, was used as a chicken to scare the monkeys. After the World Government had just two and a half years of rest, the Five Old Stars could not wait. Ordered to launch war against the Faib Empire.
A large number of new soldiers rushed to the battlefield, where they gained experience in blood and fire. Many powerful kingdoms also realized the serious consequences of going against the world government. Not only that, as the four major powers in the world First, the wealth owned by the Faib Empire is an extremely terrifying figure. A large amount of military supplies, and high-quality steel produced throughout the empire are all things that the world government covets!
But similarly, as one of the four major powers in the world, how can the Faib Empire be a soft persimmon that can be manipulated by others? Their troops have extremely high fighting qualities, and no one seems to be afraid of death. In this steel kingdom, these soldiers have the belief that "dying on the battlefield is the most glorious way to die," and the empire also supports this idea. , the equipment of each Faib Empire soldier is so expensive that it is almost three times that of the World Government's soldiers of the same level. This bone is no longer difficult to chew. This is something that the World Government has been chewing for half a year, investing 14 With tens of thousands of troops and more than 60,000 casualties, they were unable to eat a piece of "steel bone"!
Why have pirates been rampant on the sea in the past three years? The world government didn't send troops to arrest him?
Because they put 90% of their power on the Faib Empire, the pirates had a moment of respite and ran rampant.
What's even worse is that the navy and even the world government are already facing tight military expenditures. The amount of heavenly gold collected is increasing. Not only are the expenses of the nobles not reduced, but they are even more luxurious than before. Only the participating countries are suffering. Or to be more precise, only the common people of the participating countries...
Just as Cyborg Kong was sighing, there was a sudden knock on the office door. He quickly removed the tired look from his face and returned to his majestic face.
"Come in!"
A soldier who was summoning the messenger walked in cautiously. He stood in front of Cyborg Kong's desk. After a standard military salute, he handed over the information in his hand.
"Marshal, our intelligence network has received news that the Whitebeard Pirates appeared in the waters near Wano Country in the new world. They have a new main ship and are now suspected of landing in Wano Country. What is the situation in Wano Country? We also know that our intelligence personnel are not capable of going deep..."
After the soldier finished speaking, he stood aside respectfully. He noticed the bloodshot eyes in the whites of the marshal's eyes. He also glanced at the battle damage information on the table. As a messenger who had been staying beside Cyborg Kong, He knew that these continuous troubles had made this majestic marshal exhausted. His seemingly calm appearance now was just holding on...
After hearing the information from the soldiers, Cyborg Sora frowned again to hide his calm and soothing brows. In such a troubled time, the Whitebeard Pirates actually appeared again in the waters of Wano, a country that is not a member of the World Government. What does this overlord-level pirate group want to do? Or maybe it's that guy with white beard, what does he want to do?
Wano Country is a very sensitive place. It has the best sea floor quarry in the world and an excellent terrain that is easy to defend but difficult to attack. The people there are strong and strong, and there are many soldiers who are as powerful as the soldiers of the Navy Headquarters. The samurai have not shown any ambition, and the best proof of this is their isolation from the country.
But everyone knows that the Hailou Stone Mine they own is also something that the World Government is extremely coveted.
"Asshole, is it possible that that Whitebeard guy wants to take Wano Country as his own and use it as the base camp of the Whitebeard Pirates?"
Cyborg Kong said distractedly, but now, besides asking his soldiers to take more care, he had no other option.
"Buru Buru, Buru Bulu..."
The phone bug's voice suddenly rang, Cyborg Kong's face tightened, and then he helplessly picked up the phone bug on the side.
"it's me……"
An old but majestic voice came from the other end of the phone bug. Cyborg Kong didn't even need to look at the face simulated by the phone bug, he knew that the caller must be the aloof five elders. star!
"Dear Lord Wulaoxing, what are your orders?"
Cyborg Kong did not dare to neglect. The newly appointed five old stars are different from the previous five. Compared with the previous five old antiques, these new officials obviously have greater ambitions. They are eager to do it. Achieve some great achievements, let your own face shine, and make it easier for your descendants to become the Five Old Stars, but more importantly, it is the terrifying strength of these Five Old Stars!
Gang Gukong has met these five old stars many times, and he can tell from the aura deliberately exuded from each other's bodies that these five people are all strong men at the level of generals.
Even though his aura is a bit strange and a bit frivolous, he is still an absolute general-level powerhouse.
"Well, the war on the front line is tense again. The resistance of that bastard King Faib is beyond our imagination. The World Government has also spent a huge amount of Bailey recently. In order to maintain the dignity of all nobles, the financial resources can only be wronged by you. It’s the Navy!”
Wulaoxing's words made Cyborg Hollow tense up. He can reach this position. Naturally, he is also a full-fledged human spirit. The meaning of Wulaoxing's words is nothing more than to reduce expenditures on the navy. However, the navy The soldiers need military pay, and the dead and injured soldiers also need pensions. As a naval marshal, he has not received a salary for two full months. Everyone is saving money, but now...
"grown ups……"
"By the way, there are not many soldiers on the front line. Your navy should send out another 20,000 soldiers! I have also notified the army and air force. What do you think?"
The rebuttal was ruthlessly interrupted by the Five Old Stars. Cyborg Kong clenched his fists feebly. The meaning of the other party's words was already obvious. The army and air force can accept their decision, so your navy can't have it either. Any exceptions! Even if I grit my teeth, I still have to get these 20,000 people!
The life and death of the lower-level soldiers? They don't care!
Dead people cannot create any value, and it is really a waste to even pay them high pensions.
The superior gods never care about the life and death of mortals. All things are ants and are born to serve them. This seems to be natural!
All this was heard by the soldier on the side. He looked at his marshal blankly, and saw that Cyborg Kong's eyes quickly became bloodshot, his fists turned pale due to excessive force, and the marshal's The lips moved, but in the end, only two words came out:
"As ordered..."
