Pirates: When Buggy breaks the human limiter!

Chapter 96 World Recruitment!
Shanks casually found a big rock to sit on, waved his hand and said, "Everyone, sit down! Next, let's discuss how to restore the navy as soon as possible!"

Several CP0s have now retired and are standing silently behind Shanks, supporting his image.

The navy men looked at each other in bewilderment, but finally, under He's leadership, they each found a place to sit down!

But after everyone sat down, the scene fell into silence again, and no one knew what to say.

After a long while, Shanks coughed helplessly, smiled warmly and said, "Can anyone tell me about the current situation of the navy?"

Although Shanks didn't name anyone in particular, his eyes fell on Tsuru.

Crane hesitated for a moment before speaking: "In order to deal with the war with the Whitebeard Pirates, our navy has drawn elite naval forces from various naval bases in the four seas and the Grand Line, including logistics personnel, totaling 103,864 people!"

"In this war, almost everyone in our navy was injured. Among them, 68,923 people died in battle, 8,427 people were disabled and could no longer fight, and 21,569 people were injured and needed to recuperate!"

"That is to say, we now have less than 5,000 combat-capable people!"

Shanks frowned. That's a full 100,000 people! Add in the nearly 50,000 people from the Whitebeard Pirates, that's a full 150,000 people!
The other navy men also had heavy expressions on their faces. Every time they heard this number, they felt a pain in their hearts like being stabbed by needles!

He hesitated for a moment and then said, "We have not moved the troops in those bases in the New World. Most of these 100,000 elite navy troops are drawn from the first half of the Grand Line and the regular troops of the Navy Headquarters!"

He sighed softly, nodded and said, "Got it! I will make arrangements!"

Shanks knew it was not a good idea to talk about the pirates here, so he changed the subject and asked, "The Navy has drawn 100,000 elite naval forces from all over the country. The other naval bases must be very understaffed, right?"

Shanks took a deep breath and said seriously, "The World Government will transfer money to us soon. We must make good arrangements for the follow-up compensation. We must not let anyone down!"

He said calmly: "Don't worry, our navy has its own set of procedures for this kind of thing!"

Everyone even had the illusion that they were still dreaming!

Although Shanks was very serious, the navy members felt it was weird for Shanks, who was a pirate not long ago, to say such words!

They are all their subordinates, comrades, and superiors!

But no matter what, it is good news that Shanks pays attention to the issue of compensation!

Shanks paused, then continued, "By the way, when collecting the remains, you should also properly place the bodies of the pirates! After all, death is the greatest thing, and if so many bodies are not properly handled, it will easily breed epidemics!"

"Although some people were transferred from Sihai, it's not a big deal!"

"Just now we have decided to withdraw all forces from the New World to face the turmoil that may occur next!"

Shanks nodded and said, "It is correct to choose to withdraw troops in the current situation! So how are you going to deal with what may happen next?"

Crane said, "We are going to concentrate some of our forces to suppress any pirates who dare to show up in the first half of the Grand Line! Although the situation in the Four Seas is better, we still have to be on guard, so we have to send some of our forces to the Four Seas!" Shanks thought for a moment and said, "We only have a few thousand people now. Even if all the injured navy recovers and the forces withdrawn from the New World, there are only 30,000 to 40,000 people!"

"Even if we deploy all these people to the first half of the Grand Line, we will still be stretched thin, not to mention the four seas!"

"It seems that conscription is inevitable!"

conscription?

All the marines now turned their eyes to Shanks.

They have been considering conscription for a long time, but their say on specific matters such as the scale and number of conscription has no final say. It all depends on the world government's opinion!

After all, the World Government holds the economic lifeline of the Navy. If they don’t give money, nothing the Navy says will be of any use!

Shanks also understood the urgency in everyone's hearts, and without keeping them in suspense, he coughed and said, "In view of the current situation of the navy, the five old guys of the World Government are planning to conduct an unprecedented large-scale conscription worldwide!"

"To put it simply, there is no limit on region or number of people. As long as you have a clean background, you can join the navy!"

Everyone's eyes showed joy when they heard this!

It turns out that it’s easier to get things done if you have someone higher up!

Just like in the past, when Sengoku went to the World Government to ask for funding, he had to spend a lot of time and effort, and had to constantly haggle with the Five Elders!
Now that Shanks has arrived, there is no limit. Is this the status of the world's noble Celestial Dragons?

The eyes of all the navy people looking at Shanks changed at this moment, and they were not so resistant to Shanks taking the position of Navy Admiral!
After a pause, Shanks continued, "In addition, in order to make up for the lack of high-end combat power, a special rule will be set up for this large-scale conscription!"

"That means no matter your military achievements, qualifications, or background, as long as you are strong enough, you can directly take the corresponding position!"

Now all the navy members frowned. Apart from their strength, they could have sat in their current positions by fighting on the sea with every sword and gun!
Now newcomers can be on an equal footing with them without any achievement, or even become their superiors, which makes them feel more or less unbalanced!
Shanks noticed everyone's expressions, smiled and said, "The current situation is special, I hope everyone can understand! After all, those who are powerful are usually arrogant. Even if they want to join the navy to uphold justice, they will not come if they are asked to start as a handyman!"

"In addition to our naval forces, our high-end combat capabilities have also suffered heavy losses. We have no choice but to resort to this last resort!"

He frowned and asked, "Is there an upper limit to their positions?"

Shanks shook his head and said, "No! As long as he has the strength of a lieutenant general, let him be a lieutenant general. If he has the strength of a general, let him be a general!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the whole place fell silent again!
Becoming an admiral directly after joining the navy is unprecedented in the navy!
After a long while, Aokiji suddenly asked, "What about the Admiral?"

Everyone's heart shuddered when they heard this, and they felt the temperature around them had dropped a lot!
Shanks looked at Aokiji and smiled, then said softly, "Why, do you want to try it?"
