The steps were lowered on the side of the Golden Horse. Clow chewed his cigar and led a group of men down, his cloak behind him swaying in the wind.
The navy officers responsible for welcoming them below stood in two rows, holding their heads high and saluting the navy salute, welcoming the arrival of Kuro and the others.
"Curo."
As soon as Qrow walked out of the port, a voice sounded next to him.
"Um?"
Kuro turned his head and looked over, only to see Tina crossing her arms, highlighting her high chest, holding a cigarette in her mouth, and walking over with a group of people. Next to her is Smoker.
"You two, long time no see."
"It's been a long time indeed." Tina nodded and said.
"You will also attend this kind of meeting? I thought you wouldn't come?" Smoker said to Kuro while chewing on a three-pack of cigars.
The three of them lined up side by side, with Kuro in the middle, and a group of people headed towards the main building of the headquarters.
Kuro shrugged: "I really don't want to come. The old man insists on me coming. What can I do? But you, Smoker, are you too boring to stay in G-5?"
Smoker paused slightly and said: "Originally I didn't want to come, but this time, something Fujitora mentioned made me very interested. I can't do this, but he can."
Tina said slowly: "Shichibukai...? Kuro, what's your opinion?"
Smoker is also a veteran of the Navy. It is normal for him to be unhappy with the Shichibukai, but he will not directly abolish the Shichibukai like Fujitora.
But he would not block Fujitora's proposal.
"Bullshit."
Kuro's words silenced Smoker and Tina.
Also, he has always been opposed to this proposal.
"We'll talk about this kind of thing later. Anyway, I don't agree." Kuro bit his cigar and walked forward. Soon, the main building of the headquarters came into view.
The three of them went up together and arrived at the conference room.
At this time, many people were already sitting in the conference room.
There was a row of chairs in the back of the entire conference room, and most of the people sitting there were colonels and major generals. There were five chairs on each side of the front, with small round tables next to them, with drinks and cigarettes placed on them.
Several familiar people were already sitting on the chairs.
Stoloberg, Dalmecia, Gumir, Flying Squirrel, and Ghost Spider are scattered around.
"Oh~ Kuro, you're here."
Beside the main seat, Kizaru was sitting on a big chair. Seeing Kuro come in, he said hello, pointed to the first chair on the right and said, "Sit down."
In fact, Kuro didn't want to sit in this chair a second time.
The last time I sat down, I almost died socially.
With an unhappy click, Crow sat on the chair, while Lida and Crow stood behind the chair, standing straight.
In this situation, they knew what to do, and Lida also knew what she should do. This was no joke.
"Long time no see."
Kuro said hello to the lieutenant generals sitting on him, and the latter nodded and said hello.
"Crow, what do you think of the new general Fujitora? You had contact with him in Dressrosa." Ghost Spider sitting below him asked.
"Brother is very good."
Kuro lay back slightly, adjusted his posture, bit his cigar and said: "As a navy, he has fulfilled his responsibilities, but as a lieutenant general, we are not qualified to call him a general, Brother Ghost Spider."
Ghost Spider blew out the smoke and said: "Curo, you know, we don't agree with Fujitora's proposal, and you don't agree with it either. In comparison, we are more inclined to the plan you mentioned. How about we Get involved and hand over the proposal to include the Shichibukai in navy selection directly without waiting.
"The outcome is undecided now. Isn't it too early to tell?" Flying Squirrel said: "I prefer Kuro's last move. Once Fujitora brings it up, we can bring up this proposal, and the king who is good with us will agree."
This was a standard internal meeting, and neither the navy recruiting troops from within nor the world participated, so they spoke without worrying about others.
"It's such a good plan, why should we treat it as the last resort? We should take the initiative! If we are selected by the Shichibukai, those disgusting pirates will understand that our justice cannot be underestimated!" Ghost Spider That's categorical.
Hawks and doves have different ideas.
Under the premise that the old-school navy all had a proposal to abolish the Shichibukai, they certainly knew about the plan that Kuro once told the old man and implemented it.
Ghost Spider is a hawk. He thinks that controlling the Shichibukai is a very good idea, and there is no need to use it as a precaution against Fujitora.
Flying Squirrel is a dove. Although he also thinks this method is good, he will do things more gently.
"Okay, okay."
Seeing that the two of them seemed to be arguing more and more, Kuro waved his hands with a headache, "Let me tell you two brothers, this is not the theme of our meeting this time. We are here to take a look at the countries that protect the world conference. , We’ll discuss some things later, there’s no need to argue now.”
"For the sake of justice, there is nothing that cannot be argued about."
The Ghost Spider snorted coldly and said: "Only by holding onto justice firmly will the evil dare not move. It is up to us to take action personally and seize the initiative in our hands!"
"I agree with this, but don't be too radical in your approach. We are the navy, and we are not the world government yet. You will be misunderstood, Ghost Spider." Flying Squirrel warned.
"You are just too cowardly! We should do anything for justice!" Ghost Spider retorted.
Qrow rolled his eyes, raised his hand and picked up the wine bottle next to him, poured himself a drink, and let them quarrel.
This is all daily.
"Marshal Sakaski is here."
Just as the Ghost Spider and the Flying Squirrel were choking, Stoloberg on the opposite side said something, immediately stopping the quarrel.
From the inside, Sakaski walked in at a leisurely pace, wearing a red shirt under a white military uniform. Da Ma Jin Dao sat in the main seat like a powerful boss.
He glanced at the people below and said, "Are you all here? Forget it, it doesn't matter if you're not all here, it's just a meeting, let's get started."
"Yes, Tina is in charge."
Tina walked to a large curtain beside them, and saw a projection phone in front of her eyes shining brightly. She projected the curtain, and it immediately turned into a huge map.
A global map covering the four seas, including the first half of the Grand Line and the area controlled by the New World Navy.
"The World Conference is about to be held, but before that..."
Sakaski said: "There is news for you to take a look at."
Soon, the navy handed them a newspaper and a wanted notice.
Kuro picked it up and glanced at it. On the wanted poster, there was a familiar face, the one wearing a straw hat and smiling.
The matching newspaper is [World Economic News], with a huge headline on it.
The moment he saw the title, Qrow couldn't hold back and burst out laughing.
"The fifth emperor?"
