General Lanlin of One Piece

Chapter 379 A war that cannot be lost!

In the square of Marinefando, naval admirals wearing cloaks of justice came from all directions in a hurry and gathered in the direction of the fortress.

Worry, confusion, and solemn expressions appeared on everyone's faces.

Among the crowd like a white wave, Rorschach, who rushed up from the underground laboratory, saw many familiar people at a glance.

He led Skylark and Enelu to walk a few steps quickly and caught up with a tall naval admiral.

"Lieutenant General Flying Squirrel! What's going on? Grandma He said that the Golden Lion declared war on us. When did this happen?"

The person he stopped was none other than the veteran Vice Admiral Flying Squirrel of the Navy Headquarters.

Seeing Luo Xia, the Flying Squirrel first pulled out a stiff smile and said hello, then shook his head and said: "I don't know, I just received the emergency meeting notice, so I hurried from home. . If the name Golden Lion hadn’t been mentioned by Lieutenant General He, I would have almost thought that he had been dead for many years like Roger. In short, go in first, Commander He will explain everything."

The flying squirrel behaved relatively calmly.

At least, after receiving the news that Golden Lion had declared war on the navy, the expression on his face did not look too panicked.

Some young naval officers were not panicked either.

Rorschach even saw the excitement on some people’s faces.

For some belligerent naval generals, war is undoubtedly a great opportunity to gain military merit as quickly as possible and improve their military rank.

Only some naval admirals over the age of 35, who had seen the terror of the golden lion, looked extremely solemn.

Rorschach and Flying Squirrel walked side by side, and soon followed the large army into the conference hall on the first floor of the Fortress of Justice.

The space here is huge, big enough to easily accommodate tens of thousands of people for meetings at the same time.

The layout is similar to the auction house on Shampoo Island.

The higher the military rank and the more powerful the person, the seat is closer to the front and closer to the middle.

Rorschach originally wanted to sit in the seats of the major generals and brigadiers on the left, but he was pulled by Flying Squirrel and sat in the front row.

Sitting around him were the most powerful, senior and most powerful lieutenant generals in the Navy Headquarters.

Fire Mountain, Ghost Spider, Dauberman, Dalmecia, Flying Squirrel and others are all on the list.

As soon as Luo Xia sat down, Huo Shaoshan, who was holding a cigar in his mouth, handed over a cigar, but Luo Xia declined with a smile.

"This is good tobacco that I, Tosmog, bought. One stick costs tens of thousands of beliries. Why don't you try it?"

Huo Shaoshan grinned.

He is tall and thick, but his voice is very gentle.

"Thank you for your kindness, Lieutenant General Huoshaoshan, I don't smoke." Luo Xia waved his hand quickly.

"That's a pity. The three great pleasures in life are smoking cigars, drinking strong liquor, and killing pirates. You have already experienced the latter two, and you should also experience the former."

Seeing the wry smile on Luo Xia's face, Huo Shaoshan smiled and passed the cigar to the flying squirrel. The flying squirrel took it but did not light it. He just put it under his nose and smelled it.

"It doesn't matter, you will smoke in the future, hahaha. When I was young, I didn't smoke or drink. I only liked to go shopping in Happy Street."

"Cough cough!"

Luo Xia was choked by Huo Shaoshan's straightforward words and coughed repeatedly.

At this moment, Lieutenant General He, who was followed by Brannew, strode into the conference hall with rapid strides.

With the arrival of Lieutenant General He, the noisy voice in the hall quickly dropped to silence.

Pairs of eyes looked at Lieutenant General He standing on the high platform in the hall.

Lieutenant General He glanced at the admiral in the hall.

Because of the hurried emergency call, there were not many people here, only about 500 people.

However, those who can enter here for meetings have the lowest military rank of school level. It can be said that they are all elites of the navy.

"Due to the urgency of the matter, I will keep the story short, Brannew." Lieutenant General He looked at Brannew.

Brannew quickly stepped forward and opened the video phone bug, placed it on the table, and projected the news newspaper sent from the New World directly onto the blackboard behind him.

The hazy light and shadow cast by the wide-open eyes of the image phone bug soon appeared on the blackboard as a clear photo taken on a large round table.

In the photo, there are four people sitting, three men and one woman.

Two of them are as tall as giants, and the other two are slightly shorter, but not less than three meters tall.

When they saw the four familiar faces in the image, all the naval admirals who came to participate in the meeting in the entire conference hall seemed to have been hit by the pirate empress's fruit power, and they all stood there with their eyes wide open.

"This...this is?"

Even veteran Lieutenant General Huo Shaoshan couldn't help but bite the cigar in his mouth, with a look of shock in his eyes.

"This isn't 33 years ago, why would these four conceited people get together?" Dauberman couldn't help but tighten his grip on the long knife at his waist, and his finger bones looked a little white from the exertion.

There was deathly silence in the huge hall, and you could hear a needle drop.

In the photo, the fat woman wearing a pink dress is as bloated as a mountain of meat. She is the strongest woman in the world today, the Queen of Totland of All Nations, the captain of the Big Mom Pirates, and the Four Emperors Charlotte Lingling!

A tall, burly, wild man with two horns and a terrifying muscular body. He is the strongest creature in the world, the governor of the Beast Pirates, and the fellow Yonko Kaido!

The old man with a thin face, a long white beard hanging on his chin and hanging on his chest, and wearing a blue robe, is the master of the Honeycomb Island in the waters of Rocky Port, and the most powerful contender for the throne of the Four Emperors, the Great Pirate King Nao!
The last man had long blond hair, a ridiculous rudder on his head, and a cigar in his mouth with an unruly smile. Although many young generals present did not know him very well, Ghost Spider, Dauberman, Huo Shao Shan waited for the elderly naval admirals, but he was extremely familiar with them.

Even most of them had followed Garp in the Warring States Period and had many battles with this man.

The opponent's moves that could destroy the world at every turn are still deeply engraved in their minds after more than 20 years and cannot be dissipated.

Seeing the shock and confusion on many people's faces, Lieutenant General He stretched out his hand and touched the golden lion's face.

"Many of the people present are still very young and probably don't know who this man is. Let me introduce him. This man was the one who competed with Whitebeard and Roger in the New World more than 20 years ago, and once forced Roger to become a pirate. The captain of the Flying Pirates, Shiki the Golden Lion, fled everywhere and caused the world-famous Battle of Atvol!"

Looking at the horrified eyes in the audience, Lieutenant General He continued in a calm voice: "Twenty years ago, the Golden Lion broke into Marineland, was defeated by Sengoku and Garp, and was imprisoned in Impel Down. Three years later , he broke his legs and escaped from Impel Down City, becoming the first person to successfully escape from Impel Down City in its history."

"Gudong."

The sounds of swallowing could be heard one after another in the hall, and all the admirals looked horrified.

But at the same time, there were also younger naval officers who clenched their fists and worshiped: "Such a terrible pirate was captured by Marshal Sengoku and Lieutenant General Garp. What about the legend? Lieutenant General Garp, Marshal Sengoku, Zefa Teacher, which one is not a living legend?"

"That's right! So what about the legend? He would have been defeated 20 years ago, and would appear again 20 years later, and he would also fail again!"

The veteran lieutenant generals did not speak, and all looked solemn.No matter how strong the Golden Lion is on his own, he really can't overcome too many storms.

But in the image ahead, there are still three big pirates.

As expected, Lieutenant General He continued: "Just now, intelligence personnel from the New World sent news that the Golden Lion, who had disappeared for 17 years without any news spreading on the sea, took his Sky Pirates with him. The large fleet reappeared in the sea and appeared in the territory of Totland of All Nations. They met with Charlotte Lingling, Kaido, and Wang Zhi, and formed an unprecedented pirate alliance. Subsequently, the four people publicly stated at a tea party that they wanted to Our navy declares war on the world government, and they will drive the navy out of the new world in the shortest possible time.”

As soon as Hezhong said these words, the whole conference hall was first filled with a suppressed silence, and then there was an uproar.

Each of the navy generals looked frightened, and their eyes were full of disbelief.

"Hey, hey, are you kidding? Why can the Golden Lion persuade the two Yonko, Charlotte Lingling and Kaido? And Wang Zhi! Is this kind of lineup going to destroy the world? It is led by a legendary pirate , two Yonko, and a pirate alliance composed of a big pirate second only to the Yonko, who else can compete on this sea? There has never been a pirate force of this scale in history, right?"

Some admirals turned pale because of fear.

Lieutenant General He had been observing the expressions of everyone in the hall the whole time, and at this time, he couldn't help but reveal a trace of disappointment deep in his eyes.

However, she could also understand the generals' gaffe.

After all, the opponent this time is really too scary.

Not to mention that these generals and officers were frightened, even Seng Guo and her felt restless.

This war may be the largest war the navy has faced in more than 20 years.

If according to the data given by the Naval Staff, all four major pirate groups are dispatched, the total number of pirate alliances such as Golden Lion, Kaido and others may exceed 20!

And they are all elite soldiers who have experienced the cruel fighting in the new world, not the new pirates from Paradise and the Four Seas.

From top to bottom, whether it is the top combat strength, the middle level combat strength, or the military strength, it is not inferior to the total strength of the current navy.

The most important thing is that the suddenly formed pirate alliance will not give their navy the opportunity and time to gather forces.

What Lieutenant General He didn't say was that as soon as they received this shocking intelligence, their naval staff urgently contacted the major naval branches in the New World and asked them to do a good job of defense.

As for the contact calls made, three of them could not be connected.

In other words, in just two days, three naval branches in the New World have been breached by pirates.

Among them, there is the G1 whose garrison size is no less than that of the G5 branch.

If I tell the news that three naval branches including G5 have been destroyed, the naval generals in front of me will probably feel even more desperate.

Suddenly, Lieutenant General He's expression changed and he saw Luo Xia sitting in the front row.

At this moment, most of the naval generals in the entire hall, including several veteran lieutenant generals, were unable to calm down.

The navy boy who had accurately predicted what would happen today two nights ago had his arms folded and his back expressionless on the seat. There was no trace of panic on his face.

His youth and calmness formed a huge contrast with the panic of many generals in the hall, making Lieutenant General He couldn't help but feel a touch of surprise in his heart.

Isn't Rorschach afraid of this?

You know, this war is likely to be the most intense in more than 20 years.

I don’t know how many people will die in the next war.

"Rorschach, do you have anything to say?"

Suddenly, amid the commotion, Lieutenant General He asked abruptly.

Rorschach?

The noisy naval officers all raised their heads and focused their attention on the tall figure sitting in the front row.

The name Rorschach has become very popular in recent months.

Whether it is within the navy, in Paradise, the world, or even the New World, he has already gained great fame.

He is famous because of his extremely young age, his rapid promotion of military ranks, and the fact that he has killed many powerful pirates in the Paradise Sea.

A dozen days ago, the situation was turned around. In the hands of the crazed Shichibukai Crocodile, the Kingdom of Alabasta was saved, allowing hundreds of thousands of civilians to survive the upcoming war to destroy the country.

Nowadays, the legend of Qilin is spreading in the Queen City of Spring, the Capital of Seven Waters, and throughout the Kingdom of Alabasta.

And Qilin is talking about the navy boy in front of him who is still under 15 years old.

But in fact, some of the navy generals in the headquarters still felt a little uncomfortable with Rorschach's rapid promotion in rank.

Rorschach was promoted from major to colonel in the headquarters, which can also be explained by the fact that he captured several pirates with a bounty of over [-] million in the Shampoo Islands.

But from colonel to brigadier general, he was promoted for no reason.

The events in Push City were not made public because they were confidential.

Therefore, many naval generals who have stayed at the school level for a long time inevitably have doubts about Rorschach's sudden promotion.

In addition, except for some admirals who have seen Rorschach fight against lieutenants and generals at their headquarters, there are still many admirals who have not seen with their own eyes how powerful Rorschach is.

In their perception, no matter how powerful Rorschach is, his age is always there.

Even if he started training in his mother's womb, it would be absolutely impossible for him to achieve a series of achievements that sound like a dream at the age of less than 15 years old.

Therefore, many people who can't do it themselves or even dare to think about it will subconsciously attribute Rorschach's achievements to the packaging of Warring States, Zefa and other high-level naval officials.

After all, this kind of operation has not happened before.

It's gold-plated, so it's not shabby.

Who knows if Rorschach is the descendant of some navy boss.

In the front row, Luo Xia stood up after being called by Lieutenant General He.

"Grandma He, I do have something to say."

Lieutenant General He's eyes lit up, a kind smile appeared on his old face, and he waved, "Then come up and tell me your opinion."

Luo Xia nodded, and under the gaze of a famous naval general, he walked up to the high platform calmly and stood beside Lieutenant General He.

He is [-] meters tall, slender and tall, with a well-proportioned and explosive figure. His silver hair is scattered on the back of his head, his sky-blue eyes, and the calmness on his face instantly attract everyone's attention.

Facing the scrutinizing eyes, Rorschach raised his hand and pointed at the four devil-like faces in the image.

"I know what you are worried about, but I want to tell you that we will definitely win this war!"
