General Lanlin of One Piece

Chapter 278 Major General Rorschach
At night, the royal city and the palace hall.

Dots of gas lamps and dancing candlelight illuminated the huge royal city brightly.

The flowing banquet seats were lined up from the magnificent hall to the gate of the inner city.

Under the dark night, the Spring Queen City, illuminated by countless lights, is like a torch in the dark night.

The city was full of people, and it was very lively.

This was the second city-wide banquet held by Pobla V to welcome the incoming navy.

This expensive welcome method can be described as extremely grand.

In the translucent hall, Pobla V held up his wine glass with a big belly, smiling, and toasted to Garp who was eating hazelnuts.

"Lieutenant General Garp, on behalf of the Holy Poplar Kingdom, I would like to thank the Navy Headquarters for its support."

Garp raised his head from a large plate of golden, crispy and peppery barbecue, wiped the grease on his mouth with his white sleeve, picked up the wine glass and touched it with the fat king who was smiling the whole time.

"If you want to thank me, just thank the old guy Jonathan and the Rorschach boy. When I arrive with my people, you will even repair the damaged port. This trip is for nothing."

He drank the wine glass in one gulp, grabbed a huge piece of leg bone, and started chewing it again.

The food here tastes really good.

"Thanks are a must. A naval hero like Vice Admiral Garp can come here in person. This is the respect the world government has for our Holy Poplar Kingdom. As for President Jonathan and Brigadier Rorschach, they are naturally the well-deserved heroes of this war. Come on, you two, let me toast you."

Pobla V drank up the wine in his glass, poured another glass, and looked at Rorschach and Jonathan.

"King Pobla is welcome." Rorschach and Jonathan smiled and raised their glasses.

Rorschach didn't have any ill feelings towards the fat king Pobla.

Compared to a capable and people-friendly leader like Bingshan, Pobla V does seem to be a little less than good.

His Holy White Poplar Kingdom covers several very prosperous cities including the Spring Queen City and the City of Food.

This franchise country is located on the seven must-pass routes of the park, and its geographical location is really good.

According to Rorschach, in this choked geographical location, even if you do nothing, you can make a fortune just by opening a hotel on the island.

The cities in the Saint Baiyang Kingdom are indeed very prosperous and wealthy. Compared with those small countries in Beihai, they are simply vastly different.

Although the fat man Pobula V didn't have much talent, he didn't love the people like a son.

But one advantage he has is that he dares to give sufficient trust to his subordinates and the bounty hunter guild founded by Jonathan.

To put it harshly, it means being arrogant and extravagant, eating and drinking and waiting to die.

Those members of the royal family, under the influence of him, a king who was just waiting for death, all seemed very Buddhist.

Just eat and drink well every day, and I won’t deliberately bully ordinary people in the country.

On this point, this fat man can be regarded as a wise man in Luo Xia's eyes.

"Brother Rorschach, I want to eat that lobster, can you get it for me?"

Beside Rorschach, Skylark tugged on his sleeve and stared at the big arm-thick lobster on the table.

"Your body is still growing, so you should eat more. Here, I'll give it all to you."

Rorschach reached out and picked up the five or six large lobsters placed in the middle of the table, and placed them all in front of Skylark.

"There's too much, I can't eat it." Yunque's mouth opened slightly.

"How much is this? If you don't eat more, you won't grow taller. Let me peel it for you."

As he spoke, Rorschach grabbed a lobster that was more than half a meter long and began to peel the shell.

"Thank you... thank you."

Skylark's face turned slightly red and she thanked him in a low voice.

Sera, the short-haired girl sitting diagonally across from her, saw this scene and immediately pursed her lips in anger.

"I said, why have you always refused to accept me? Has there been a new lover already? Does this guy like this type of woman? He seems to be a sweetheart, shy and shy. But this woman's ex Killing pirates in two days is much more ruthless than me."

While peeling the shrimp shells, Rorschach poked Garp next to him with his elbow and whispered: "Hey, old man, let me ask you something."

"What?" Garp didn't even raise his head.

"That's right, that Qingjiao, he is the current pillar of the Eight Treasure Navy, right? I remember that although the Eight Treasure Navy is a pirate, it is also a regular army of the Kingdom of Flowers. And the Kingdom of Flowers is now one of the countries that joins the World Government. , I killed one of their army commanders, will they complain to the World Government?"

Rorschach's whisper did not receive a response from Garp, but was overheard by the fat man Pobla V who was sitting in the main seat next to Garp.

The fat bald man was furious when he heard this. He slapped his fat palm on the table in front of him and said angrily: "He dares!"

"I haven't gone to settle the accounts with them yet. They, the Country of Flowers, are just a bunch of robbers and pirates. How dare they complain first?"

"As the captain of their army, Cone Zhiqingjiao openly led the Babao navy to invade our Holy Baiyang Kingdom. This debt cannot be settled like this!
Brigadier General Rorschach, don't worry!I will contact the World Government later and report Qingjiao’s accusation of unprovoked intrusion into the territory of the franchised country.I want to see how the pirates from the Flower Kingdom explain it.

If they don't give me enough apology and compensation, do you think I will confront them in person at next year's World Conference! "

"Your Majesty Bobla is so generous!" Rorschach couldn't help but give a thumbs up to the fat man who looked angry.

"Huhahaha, I like you very much, Bobra. Come, drink!"

Garp also grinned widely, stretched out his big greasy hand, directly put his arm around the shoulders of Pobla V, and raised the wine glass.

Pobla V didn't mind either. Instead, he laughed and raised his glass to everyone on the table.

"You won't come home until you get drunk tonight! Everyone must have a good time, eat and drink well!"

"cheers!"

The backyard of the Bounty Hunter Guild base.

"That bastard Garp is so serious. He doesn't even care about giving him money. He just sits there eating and drinking. He's still the same heartless bastard as before."

Jonathan cursed angrily and returned here early with Rorschach and a black suit.

The man in the black suit is Bogart, Garp's adjutant, and he is also a powerful swordsman.

The military rank is the same as Rorschach, brigadier general of the headquarters.

"Haha, he is like that. If you have anything to say to Brigadier General Bogart, he can fully represent Lieutenant General Garp."

Rorschach looked at Jonathan with a smile and said jokingly: "What, from what you said, do you want to give me money? Let me tell you, I am a navy that upholds justice and will not accept bribes easily."

"1000 billion. I plan to donate 1000 billion in military expenses to the Navy Headquarters. Do you want it? Don't push me down." Jonathan snorted coldly, took the lead into the empty hall, and sat down on the sofa.

"want!"

Rorschach's eyes lit up and he spoke quickly.

Just kidding, would he still be a human without 1000 billion Baileys?

"It's not for you. Why did you promise so quickly?"

Jonathan rolled his eyes.

He picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip.

Familiar cold boiled taste.

At the thought of Liang Baikai, Jonathan felt a dull pain in his abdomen, and couldn't help but glared at Rorschach again.

This little bastard handed him the bottle of boiled water at the door outside that day, and he was almost beaten to death by the drug-addicted Gulliver.

"Hehehehe, you are right. What do I need so much money for? Rebellion? The Navy Headquarters has a big business, and it is a time when military funds are in short supply. Come on, come on, I'll pour you some tea."

Rorschach squeezed to Jonathan's side with a smile, picked up the teapot on the table with great enthusiasm, and filled him with tea.

While coughing twice at Bogart.

Although this naval swordsman who didn't talk much had always been calm-minded, he was now calmed down by Jonathan's big breath. 1000 billion Baileys.

The annual military expenditure of the Navy Headquarters is only a few hundred billion beli.

This seemingly ordinary old man in front of me is actually so rich.

Of course, as a swordsman's intuition, Bogart could still feel the power of this old man.

"Brigadier General Bogart, stop standing here, contact Marshal Warring States immediately and tell him the good news."

"But, it seems a bit too late now..."

Bogart hesitated and took out a phone bug from his arms.

"With so much money, he would still get up to answer the call at four in the morning, let alone two in the morning. Give me the phone bug and I'll make the call!"

Rorschach took the phone bug from Bogart's hand and dialed Sengoku's private number several times.

The movements were so skillful that the corner of Bogart's mouth twitched.

"Purrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr..."

The phone rang a dozen times before it was answered by an old man with an afro with dark circles under his eyes.

Before Rorschach could say anything, Seng Guo's twisted and twitching old face was about to spit Rorschach's head angrily.

But the next second, Warring States' twisted old face wrinkled into a bright chrysanthemum, and the corners of his mouth barely reached his ears.

"What are you talking about? That old... hero Jonathan wants to sponsor 1000 billion beli military expenses for the Navy Headquarters? Is it true? I'm not dreaming, am I? Wait a minute."

Then, Rorschach heard a dull slapping sound, followed by Sengoku's cry of pain.

After more than ten seconds, Warring States, with a smile on his face, returned to the phone bug and began to use extremely flattering words to flatter Jonathan crazily.

The tone was so disgusting that even Rorschach couldn't listen to it.

Immediately, he reprimanded Warring States.

"Hey, Mr. Warring States Period, what do you think? Isn't it just 1000 billion Baileys?"

Jonathan sat on the sofa, crossed his legs, sipped tea slowly, and said casually: "I heard that you want to build a big ship made entirely of Adam tree materials? It seems that because of insufficient money, you can only use the original The warship was dismantled and spliced ​​together with the new ship. The stability and solidity of the ship itself seems unreliable for a ship built from two different materials."

"As for acting like you've never seen the world...?"

Rorschach's voice gradually dropped.

"I can fund you 100 billion beli, so that you can buy enough Adam wood to build a treasure ship entirely made of Adam tree. Just like the Matgrama and the Oro Jackson."

Jonathan's tone was very casual.

"Father...ah no, Mr. Jonathan, are your shoulders sore? Let me give you a squeeze."

A bright smile immediately appeared on Rorschach's face, he stood up and walked behind the sofa, stretched out his hands, and began to squeeze Jonathan's shoulders.

"How is it? Is the intensity moderate? Do you want to use more force?"

"Well, a little to the left, yes, that muscle is a little sore. This person is old and his body is prone to problems. No matter how much money you have, you can't buy health. You see, even if I have assets worth trillions of Baileys , there is no way to avoid getting old. Alas, life..."

Jonathan sighed.

Warring States: "..."

Rorschach: "..."

Bogart: "..."

When Bogart left with the phone bug, Rorschach and Jonathan were the only two people left in the huge hall.

Jonathan squinted his cloudy presbyopic eyes and stared straight at Rorschach. He looked at him until he felt like he was getting scared. Then he snorted and said with some displeasure:
"Boy, do you really want to stop thinking about becoming my grandson-in-law?

You have also seen the wealth in the treasure house. With so much money, you can buy several small countries and become the king yourself.

Isn't this better than being a brigadier general, ah no, a major general? "

That's right, Rorschach has been promoted again.

After helping Spring Queen City win the war and bringing hundreds of billions of military funding to the Navy Headquarters, Warring States waved his hand and promised on the spot that he would give Rorschach money to him when he completed his graduation exam and returned to Malinfando. Promoted to the rank of major general in the headquarters.

This made the brigadier general uniform that Garp brought for him one level lower than his actual military rank.

When you reach the rank of major general in the headquarters, your status in the navy is completely different from that of commodore and officers below commodore.

Rear Admiral and above are the real elites of the Navy Headquarters.

Further up, there are the top navy generals, headquarters lieutenant generals, generals, and marshals!
Candidates for general general are not of military rank, they are also subordinate to lieutenant general of the headquarters.

It hasn't even been a month since Rorschach left Marinefando, and his military rank has gone from colonel to major general.

It has been almost two years since he officially joined the Navy.

The upgrade speed is faster than Kirby.

As expected by Jonathan, Rorschach simply shook his head and refused.

This disappointed Jonathan.

However, he thought of Luo Xia's previous suggestion to him, asking him to go to the East China Sea to see if there was any good young man who could inherit his mantle and his role as the King of Hunters.

Jonathan thought for a long time before making up his mind.

"You can just go to the East China Sea for fun. Garp's hometown is there, right? Go there and see if that guy named Roronoa is a good prospect. Huh? By the way, it really doesn't work, Garp. Didn’t the bastard say that he also has two outstanding grandsons? How about that?”

Jonathan's eyes suddenly lit up and the corners of his mouth raised slightly.

the next day.

The port of Spring Queen City is empty. The two docked sea trains and three warships have long disappeared from the sight of everyone at the port.

Rorschach, Garp and others all left.

Many bounty hunters and citizens stood on the port looking at the sea and did not move for a long time.

There was a hint of melancholy in Sera's resentful eyes.

She was finally moved by the navy girl named Skylark, but she lost so completely.

Jonathan looked at his depressed granddaughter and felt a little distressed.

"Sierra." He stepped forward, smiled and patted his granddaughter on the shoulder, "Grandpa, I'm going to the East China Sea to have fun, and I need a good ship. Help grandpa go to the Seven Waters Capital and order one. ."

"Really?" Sera's eyes lit up instantly, and her face showed joy.

She knew that Luo Xia and the others would have to stay in the Capital of Seven Waters for a while, waiting for their ship to be built.

"of course it's true."

Seeing the somewhat excited Sierra, Jonathan's old face suddenly smiled.

Behind him, Andre stood silently.

Suddenly, he said in a deep voice: "President, should we... also build a unicorn statue at the port? I heard from the boatmen of Carrera Company that it can ward off evil spirits and calm the sea."

"A unicorn?"

Jonathan looked startled, then raised the corners of his mouth.

"Okay! If you want to build one, build the largest unicorn statue in the park! Let it become the landmark building of our Holy Poplar Kingdom!"

"I have plenty of money!"
