Chapter 17 Discussion
Sengoku shook his head, utterly helpless. He couldn't find anything to say about Sakazuki either; Sakazuki hated pirates with a passion, and whenever he encountered one during a mission, he would kill it.
This was originally a good thing, and Sakazuki's military achievements and strength were also considerable.
He was one of the strongest contenders for the rank of Admiral after his retirement, but he did not favor him.
Sakazuki was too extreme; such a person was unsuitable to lead the navy. Sengoku sighed again, thinking that if Sakazuki became Fleet Admiral, he would definitely invade the New World.
Sengoku's mind raced, but he decided to put aside the question of whether Sakazuki should become marshal for now.
Let's deal with the pirate invasion of Loguetown and the so-called killers for now!
If the killers and the navy were to become enemies in the future, he would not hold back. A cold glint flashed in Sengoku's eyes as he thought of this, determined to nip the threat in the bud.
Zhan Guo let out a long breath and said to the communications officer, "Now call the other communications officers and then notify all officers of the rank of lieutenant general and above to come to the conference room for a meeting."
Upon hearing what Zhan Guo said, the messenger immediately went to inform the others.
And so, during the Warring States period, he called a meeting of all the naval vice admirals and above.
When the others received the notice to attend a meeting in the conference room, they were all puzzled. Had something really happened? Why did all officers of the rank of lieutenant general and above have to attend a meeting?
Although they were puzzled, they quickly went to the conference room to prepare for the meeting and inquire about what had happened.
While the lieutenant generals rushed to the conference room for a meeting, one man dawdled, looking distressed, and complained, "Why do we have to have a meeting? I haven't had enough rest yet!"
That's right, this is our Admiral Kizaru, also known by netizens as (Monkey D. Kizaru).
The messenger who sent the meeting notice also looked bitter. He hadn't expected that when he came to notify Admiral Kizaru of the meeting, Admiral Kizaru would still be resting.
This left the messenger momentarily at a loss, but the thought of the imposing face of the Warring States general sent a chill down his spine.
All he could do was muster up his courage and go to Kizaru's side to wake him up.
At this moment, Kizaru was sleeping soundly. In his dream, he even dreamed that his salary had increased, his working hours had decreased, and he had more time to slack off.
Kizaru, who was happily dreaming, was disturbed by a sudden sound, which annoyed him greatly. But the sound grew louder and louder, and it was saying something about going to a meeting in the conference room. It was as if the voice was reminding him to wake up and get to work.
Kizaru woke up with a face full of resentment. The first thing he did was open his eyes and look at the flustered communicator in front of him, which made him even more annoyed.
"So this is the guy who kept him from sleeping? That's really scary."
Upon seeing Kizaru awake, the communications officer was initially pleased, but then frightened. He could only stammer, "Admiral Kizaru, Fleet Admiral Sengoku said he has important business to discuss with you in the conference room."
Upon hearing the communicator's words, Kizaru looked distressed and said, "Why do we have to have a meeting now! I haven't had a proper rest yet!"
Seeing Kizaru's troubled and confused expression, the messenger could only say to him, "The Fleet Admiral Sengoku didn't say anything, he just told you to hurry up and go!"
After hearing the messenger's words, Kizaru had already made up his mind.
"Well then, could I have a cup of tea first, and then get my nails done?" Kizaru replied.
???
At this moment, the messenger was cursing a thousand times, not knowing whether to say it or not. The Warring States Marshal told you to go quickly, not to drink tea and get your nails done before you went!
The communications officer said with a bitter expression, "Admiral Kizaru, why don't we go to the conference room for a meeting first? We can drink after that, okay?"
Looking at the grim-faced messenger, Kizaru pouted and said, "That's really scary."
Watching Kizaru still fooling around, the communications officer cursed inwardly, "Damn it, I really can't stand being a communications officer anymore. After this, I'm definitely quitting. If I'm ever a communications officer again, I'm a dog!"
Kizaru chuckled at the bitter-faced communications officer, "I was just joking." Then he got up and walked towards the conference room.
???
The communications officer, with three questions swirling in his mind, thought bitterly, "Admiral Kizaru's words are really not funny at all."
And so, Kizaru and the communications officer headed towards the conference room.
Compared to the difficulty with Kizaru, things went much more smoothly with the other communicators. For example, Aokiji and Akainu (we'll continue using Aokiji and Akainu from now on, not Kuzan and Sakazuki). After receiving the communicator's message, Aokiji simply asked one question, and seeing that the communicator knew nothing, he headed towards the conference room.
As for Akainu, it was even simpler. After the messenger told him that Fleet Admiral Sengoku had asked him to go to the conference room, he didn't even ask the messenger's opinion. He straightened his Justice Cloak and walked towards the conference room, completely ignoring the messenger.
This allowed the correspondent to breathe a sigh of relief.
"That's the best way to ignore him."
This shows just how much prestige Akainu wields within the Navy (he's a menacing figure).
So all the naval vice admirals and above went to the conference room for a meeting.
After Sengoku saw that everyone had arrived, he began to discuss the invasion of Loguetown and the Killers (kill points are Minos).
……
Not only were the Navy discussing the events in Loguetown, but Morgans had also learned of what had happened there.
Morgans, who was at the newspaper headquarters, was still struggling with how to make the newspaper sell better.
Because there haven't been any major incidents at sea lately, and the material he's photographing has lost its novelty, newspaper sales have been declining, causing him significant financial losses.
But just as he was fretting, he suddenly heard urgent shouts from outside.
The newspaper staff shouted anxiously, "President! President! There's breaking news!"
Hearing from the newspaper staff outside that there was big news, Morgans's previously troubled mood instantly brightened up, but only slightly.
He had heard a lot of important news recently, which had excited him for a long time.
But when he went to check it with great excitement, he was disappointed to find it was all useless news.
For example, a major war broke out in a certain country, or the king of a certain country had an affair.
When Morgans saw these useless news reports, he berated the newspaper staff, asking what use these lousy news reports were.
After berating the newspaper staff, Morgans specifically instructed them not to bother him unless it was very important news.
With these thoughts in mind, Morgans invited the newspaper staff into his office with great interest.
As soon as the newspaper staff entered the office, Morgans immediately asked who had taken the news photos.
After all, he didn't want to hear any more useless news.
Upon hearing Morgans's words, a newspaper employee said urgently, "President, this is a news report taken by Yamashita Masaya. We've already seen it; it is indeed very important."
