Pirates: The Salary Is In Place, The Four Emperors Are Kicked Out

Just like putting meat in the refrigerator, the oil will get on the hands of the transporter, Marine represented the World government to bid for the two top Paramecia Devil fruits, and in the process of handing them over to the World government, there will naturally be reasonable "Worn out" - yes, one Lion Fruit is missing.

Of course, whether it's an external announcement or a report to the Five Elders, Polsalino and the others' statements are completely the same - it's all to blame for that lunatic Kaido! We sank our warship! Two Devil Fruits only had time to save one!

Under such circumstances, the Five Elders' original plan, which was to give Marine the Soul Fruit with greater strategic significance and the Lion Fruit, which is more conducive to Mariejois' defense work, to CP0, could only be forced to give up half of them.

As for whether CP0 was abandoned, or Marine was abandoned - if there is no such thing as the alliance of anti-World government forces, if there is no wonderful performance of the two movie stars Polusalino and Garp Vice Admiral, the result is actually irrelevant. And metaphor.

But now...

...

The time is the end of the Sea Circle Calendar 1512, the third World Summit since the beginning of the Great Pirate Age, which just ended ten days ago.

The location is West Blue's Palau Kingdom, Ionian Island.

Marine Rear Admiral Gion is on a mission here, along with the third-level battleship "Cyclops" of the fifth detachment of the "Burning Fleet".

In order to appease the panicked kings of the major World government member countries, at the important meeting ten days ago, the Five Elders officially announced that the Naval Headquarters will send out the "Burning Fleet" that wiped out the former Four Emperors BIGMOM, and go in batches. The major allied countries have launched a pirate clean-up operation.

Although the "Burning Expedition" big plan to which the "Burning Fleet" belongs, when Polsalino first proposed it, the purpose was to act on the four seas and attack the pirate group from the source. But the plan can't keep up with the changes. Since its establishment, the Burning Fleet has been like a little brother, playing all "high-end games", even the last time it was the "Army of Evil" Germa 66-like that kind of action The pirate supernova with a bounty of several hundred million encountered on the way was not included in the target of the burning fleet at all, and it could only be regarded as a small task that was easily solved.

Therefore, as soon as the arrangement of the Five Elders was proposed, the kings of the major alliance countries all fell into a state of ecstasy after confirming that they were not joking - this is just like the Polusalino before crossing. In the world, super special forces, which have always only dealt with international dangerous missions, suddenly appeared in an ordinary residential area one day, driving a main battle tank, holding a missile pager, fully armed, and said that they would catch thieves for the residents.

Although it's a bit "big talent and small use", it makes people very puzzled, but in one sentence - no need to use it for nothing, it's cool to use it!

Of course, after all, there are so many allied countries in the World Government, and the sea is so wide after all, so in the process of specific cleaning operations, the Burning Fleet is actually "broken into pieces", with a single warship as an ordinary one Action Squad——Only when encountering a large-scale mission area jointly declared by several adjacent World government member countries, a large troop of two or more ships will appear.

This can not only ensure efficiency, but also prevent the pirates from hiding early because Marine's target is too obvious and the momentum is too exaggerated.

By the way, in order to further highlight the greatness of the World government's move, the Five Elders also specially arranged for the "World Economic News" to let the "big news" Morgans come to Mariejois and conduct an interview with the five of them in person - in this In the interview, which was conducted completely according to the script, Morgans successfully played the role of a gangster, asking all kinds of tricky questions (just seemingly), while the Five Elders showed the ruler's "forgiving and approachable", very He patiently answered his doubts.

for example:

"Is there any difference between an operation like the Burning Grand Fleet and the previous operations carried out by Marine branches in various places? Is it necessary to be so high-profile?"

——"The difference is huge, the sailors of the Burning Fleet. They are all elites in the elite. They can solve the problems that the ordinary Marine branch can't solve; they can solve the problems that the ordinary Marine branch can solve in a shorter time. better."

Another example:

"The cost of such a large-scale operation must be astronomical..."

——"On the issue of upholding justice and protecting the citizens of the World government member countries, there is no need to consider the cost! Even if one billion baileys are used to destroy only one pirate group, it is worth it!"

Also for example:

"Send the Burning Fleet to perform missions around the world, if the situation in the New World changes..."

——“The World Government has the confidence and ability to solve all pirate problems. The so-called Revolutionary Army, NEW Marine and other forces are doomed to fail, and they are not worth mentioning at all.”

...

In short, take the initiative to ask reporters to play the role of gangsters, and take the initiative to answer seemingly tricky questions, so as to avoid more troubles. Old politicians like Five Elders know marketing well.

...

Regarding the pirate issue on Ionian Island, Gion and his subordinates arrived here for the first time, and after hiding the "Cyclops" nearby, he let Smoker start to investigate.

A total of 18 hours, in less than a day, Smoker has already mastered the movements of the pirates here, and let the sailors follow up - as the first name of his Marine elite class, Smoker is not only the "problem that people stay away from" Not only is he famous for being a "boy", his combat effectiveness is very high, and his work efficiency is even more astonishingly high, which are also his well-known labels.

As a last resort, this site has opened a new domain name: m.mtlarchive.net "Gion Rear Admiral, the islanders don't seem to expect our Marine to fight pirates..."

"That's because the Marine branch that was in charge of this sea area was not strong enough to effectively eradicate the pirate forces here. After they left, the pirates came back and began to take revenge on the islanders... In this case, I will We have encountered it before, we just need to do a good job this time, and the islanders will have no complaints, and choose to trust us in Marine in the future.”

Smoker agrees with this, but it is not easy to capture the pirate forces that have been active in a fixed area for a long time, especially the "Cyclops" battleship can stay in this sea area for a limited time, and they have other tasks in other sea areas. to execute.

"Everyone else went to inquire about the situation, right? I'll take action too."

Gion suddenly spoke like this.

"Gion Rear Admiral, you better not act first, you are too conspicuous... and if you, the monster commander, are all dispatched, it will seem that our subordinates are too incompetent."

——Not only the appearance and the conspicuous rank of the military, as the representative of the new Marine Marines, the monster of Transcendent, Gion has spoken many times as Marine spokesperson in major newspapers. On the phone bug network, she has a large number of fans, and it can be said that she is a famous sailor all over the world.

Therefore, even in this West Blue kingdom of Palau, in this Ionian island, Gion is quite easy to be exposed even if he puts on camouflage civilian clothes-if he acts again at this time, it is very likely that It will make the islanders who are not expecting to attack the pirates add another doubt, and let the pirates notice the difference.

"Well, that's fine, then I'll practice swords for a while..."

In desperation, Gion went around the back of the hotel and started practicing swordsmanship -- actually is not hoping that this random opportunity and time will make much progress, but she just needs to practice every day, it has become a habit .

She pulled out the large sharp sword "Kimpira" from the scabbard, stopped the Observation Haki that had been on all the time, put her hands in a position, took a deep breath, straightened her back, and swung it towards the top of her head. Then she swung down quickly and forcefully, and after a few repetitions, she regained her grip on the knife handle and closed her eyes.

She was surrounded by a group of pirates with a bounty of at least 100 million bellies, all of them armed with weapons - while she imagined this, she hit the enemy's wrist with the back of the knife, slashing his body, and the moment she turned around. , a sword hit the enemy's face on the other side.

"Um?"

Gion slowly opened his eyes, and found in front of him a little girl holding a bamboo sword—is that the daughter of the innkeeper?

The girl didn't speak, and stared straight at Gion with her face raised, about 12 years old.

"Excuse me, what's the matter with you? Little Little Sister?"

"My, my name is Tashigi!"

"Huh? My name is Gion, first meeting."

Gion bowed her head habitually to say hello, and the girl named Tashigi also nodded slightly - the smile on Gion's face made her seem less nervous when talking to strangers.

"Big sister... You came from outside the island, right? Can you use a sword?"

"It's a little bit."

Gion's words were not modest—in a place like Naval Headquarters where swordsmen walked everywhere, even a great swordsman could only say that he knew a little.

After all, you never know, if you will suddenly meet the world's largest swordsman, Hawkeye, who came to the headquarters for a meeting, or Polsalino, who claims to be the inheritor of the famous swordsmanship of the reeds - if they hear someone say that they are very good at using Jian, will definitely go to take the initiative to seek advice.

Of course, there is a certain old monster who insists that his own fist is also a sword...

"Then can you teach me to practice?"

Tashigi held up the bamboo sword in his hand and posed, and stared at Gion, his eyes full of hope.

"I want to be stronger than a pirate!"

Gion quickly accepted Tashigi's abrupt request. The girl who also wanted to learn swordsmanship asked her for swordsmanship. She didn't feel bored, but rather happy - after all, she wanted to be stronger than pirates. Poke her in the heart of the female sailor.

Gion first let her try swinging the sword up and down. Although the posture was standard, the tip of the blade was not stable, and the center of gravity of the lower body was also shifted.

"When swinging the sword, instead of hitting the ground, imagine swinging the tip of the blade far away, and then swing the sword—use more wrist power."

As a last resort, this site started a new domain name: m.mtlarchive.net Gion made a serious suggestion. Tashigi performed a little better at first, but after waving two or three times, it returned to its original state.

Inadvertently asked when the girl started learning swordsmanship, Gion learned that she only started learning about half a year ago.

"I was taught swordsmanship by the owner of the blacksmith shop. Although he is a blacksmith, his swordsmanship is also very good. He is the most powerful person on this island... Although this happened before his leg was injured."

After the blacksmith can't teach her swordsmanship, Tashigi is looking for a new master when Gion appears.

"Uncle the blacksmith is really pitiful... Obviously he didn't do anything bad, and Marine rarely comes to such a rural town. Sister Gion, your ship came here for supplies, right?"

"...Well, yes, you're right."

Gion Hankoji agreed - they pretended to be ordinary members of the chamber of commerce. Moreover, although it is to crusade the pirates here, I don't think that a little girl Tashigi will leak information, but for the sake of safety and confidentiality, Gion can't tell the truth to little Tashigi.

"Since the pirates came to this island, it has all been unreasonable things. And the adults have all said that they have to bear it, and it is not good to resist them... There is definitely no good thing, sister, right?

"Of course! You should resist what you can't accept! Sometimes you can't give up even if you try your best!"

Although there were many things that could not be changed even if they tried their best, or it would be meaningless, but after all, facing a little girl who was still growing, Gion did not tell her about these complicated situations.

"That's how it should be!

Tashigi grinned, nodded heavily, and waved the bamboo sword in his hand with a firm tone: "I want to practice a lot of swordsmanship and drive away all those pirates who hurt everyone!"

The tip of the bamboo knife slid across the air with a "huh" sound.

"The posture of swinging the sword is good now, but the center of gravity is still too high."

Gion supported Tashigi's waist from behind, correcting her posture: "You want to become stronger and bring back justice for this village."

Gion naturally fully understood the revenge that ignited in Tashigi's heart. Unlike Marine bastards like Polsalino, the idea of ​​protecting the common people from the pirates is the belief of Gion, who has been in Marine since childhood and was influenced by various elders.

Although she also encountered many things that shook her concept of justice in the process of growing up, she has never changed the concept of protecting the weak - this is why she very much agrees with the big plan that Polusalino wants to carry out, she thinks Only then can Marine better implement "justice".

Of course, in addition to Marine's initiative, Gion believes that the commoners themselves must have an unyielding heart, which, in Porusalino's words, is "God help the self-helper".

Therefore, Gion carefully guided Tashigi's practice and wanted to plant a seed in this little girl's heart.

However, while Tashigi was energetic at first, after an hour, she began to look tired. The posture began to become more and more messy, and in the end, he couldn't even hold the bamboo sword and slipped out of his hand.

"Take some rest."

"It's okay, I'm fine!"

There's no point in training nonstop if you don't care about fatigue -- it takes experience to notice this.

Gion didn't stop Tashigi for the time being, but just drew her own knife beside her. The tip of the knife sank sharply, and it fell heavily with a "Hugh".

Seeing Gion starting to practice swinging the sword, Tashigi's eyes widened in surprise: "Is Gion sister practicing too? Are you an adult?"

"Even the strongest swordsman will keep practicing every day~ It has nothing to do with age."

Gion replied with a smile - of course she is not very familiar with Hawkeye, the strongest swordsman in the world, but Polsalino is familiar, so she often hears stories about Hawkeye from Polsalino .

Of course, except for the chicken soup that inspires young people, most of them are bad words made up by Polusalino when his bad taste comes up.

For example, don't look at Hawkeye's handsomeness when he goes out to sea alone in a coffin boat. Once he meets the third person in a hurry, he can't bear to look directly at the scene. It is said that there was once a pirate who accidentally witnessed Hawkeye's famous scene. Then he was chased for hundreds of nautical miles.

Naturally, Gion will not tell Tashigi such a story. For this little swordsman learner, he needs to tell more about chicken soup:

"While practicing swordsmanship, let me tell you a story, Tashigi, the protagonist of this story is the world's greatest swordsman, Hawkeye, when he was a child..."
