After hearing this, Garp turned around, glanced at the general officer behind him, and laughed.

"We are all over seventy years old!"

"Of course they are all old."

Zhan Guo also laughed and nodded: "You are right, we are all over seventy years old!"

“It’s time for the young people to fight!”

At what age does a person reach his peak?

Is it the passionate twenties or thirties? Or the prime of life in the forties or fifties?

Anyway, it won’t be an old man like them who is over 70 years old with gray hair.

After becoming the marshal, he never fought again. He was old, and his physical strength and power were not up to par. If he rashly fought with others, he would be beaten in the face.

Fortunately, I am a navy man and don't need to worry about my life like a pirate. Even at my age, I still dream of becoming the Pirate King.

As I was thinking, a voice came from the crowd again.

"Admiral Aokiji and Admiral Kizaru are here!"

"I heard that there will be a new general taking office at this conference. Who will it be?"

"There were several lieutenant generals who performed outstandingly in the Battle of Marineford."

"The answer will be revealed soon!"

During the discussion, Kizaru and Aokiji walked to the front row first, then slowly sat down and looked quietly forward.

Looking at the empty stage, the two of them were a little dazed for a moment.

"He has finally reached this point!"

Aokiji sighed softly.

“It’s not easy, but it’s natural.”

Kizaru laughed softly.

They had known each other since the other had just joined the navy. It could be said that the three of them had been friends for more than 20 years.

"Given this guy's personality, who knows what crazy things he will do after he takes over!"

Aokiji sighed again.

"His toughness has spread throughout the navy."

Kizaru clicked his tongue and said in admiration.

There are only a few people in the world who dare to say those words to the Five Elders. Although it is a bit impulsive, it is quite a morale booster for the navy that has always been suppressed by the World Government.

Such behavior also won Xia Le the support of most of the navy.

Moreover, it can be predicted that the navy will also have a greater say in the world government in the future.

“New atmosphere, new era!”

Aokiji finally made a summary.

As he said, the appointment of the new marshal will mean that the navy will enter a new era and start their new story.

time flies.

The seats behind me gradually filled up.

Kizaru glanced at the two seats beside him, his eyes flashed slightly, and he understood something in his mind.

In addition to them, there will apparently be two more generals who will take the throne in the upcoming ceremony.

"I think I've already guessed who it will be."

Kizaru muttered.

Aokiji didn't care about it at all.

Those two were certainly strong enough to qualify, but in addition to them, there was another group of lieutenant generals who were also very strong.

If we only talk about strength, they have just reached the standard of generals.

But I don’t know how Xia Le will deal with this problem.

Suddenly, the crowd behind me fell silent for unknown reasons.

"Da~"

The footsteps were light, but they spread eerily throughout Marinford and seemed to echo in everyone's heart.

"General Xia Le!!"

someone exclaimed.

"From today on, you should be called Marshal Xia Le!"

But the next second, someone corrected this wrong name.

I saw a tall and strong figure wearing a white navy uniform, a cloak of justice behind him, a navy cap on his head, and various medals on his chest, walking slowly towards me from the distant steps.

"Da~"

An invisible aura permeated the air, causing every marine present to stare at the man with eyes wide open.

Xia Le walked lightly and at a moderate pace, holding in his hands a few thin manuscript documents, which he had prepared for his speech when he took office as marshal.

A moment later, Xia Le stood in front of the microphone on the podium.

"Hello, colleagues!"

"I'm Xia Le!"

A simple introduction instantly made the atmosphere of the entire scene explode.

"Roar!!"

Countless young naval officers shouted loudly at this moment and raised their hands excitedly.

"Xia Le!!"

"Xia Le!!!!"

"The strongest navy in history! An undefeated legend!"

"・・・"

The sound wave was like a tsunami, sweeping across the entire Marinford in the blink of an eye.

Xia Le did not stop it, but stood in front of the microphone with a smile on his face, quietly watching this crazy scene.

This undoubtedly represents how high his prestige and reputation are in the navy.

Today was his peak day, and he was happy to enjoy it.

After a long time, he raised his hands and slowly pressed them down.

The exciting scene and the overwhelming noise calmed down.

After glancing ahead, he smiled slightly, then suddenly tore up the manuscript in his hand and spoke slowly.

"I originally prepared a 2,000-word speech for this inauguration ceremony."

"You know, for our navy, two thousand words is already an extremely long article, and there is a lot of nonsense in it."

This sentence caused another round of laughter from the audience.

"But now, I'm tearing them apart."

"because."

“It was just a normal day.”

Chapter 341 Plan

This is just a normal day.

Xia Le smiled and spoke calmly, quieting the sailors and keeping their eyes on him.

"Like yesterday and tomorrow, it will be a very ordinary day in our navy."

"The only difference is that the marshal has been replaced by a different person."

"That's all!"

Marinford was completely silent, and no one made any extra noise.

"The world is still in chaos, and unfair things are still happening every minute and every second."

"In the New World, pirates fought fiercely for Whitebeard's territory. Countless civilians lost their lives and homes in the chaos of war."

Having said that, Xia Le sighed deeply.

"As a navy, we have a heavy responsibility on our shoulders!"

"To calm this chaotic sea is the ultimate goal of those of us who fight for justice."

"It's time for us to do something for justice."

The calm words echoed in everyone's ears.

A breeze blew overhead, and the sailors stared at the strong figure on the platform.

The other party's words were simple and clear, as if this was his inaugural speech. There were no fancy words, but every sentence touched the heart.

"From today on, I will be the new admiral of the navy!"

"Because of this, a series of new plans will be implemented in the coming period of time."

"This may affect the interests of certain forces and hurt the feelings of some people."

"But this is the general trend. As a navy, you should be prepared to follow justice."

Xia Le said lightly.

Countless people at the scene felt a chill in their hearts and their expressions changed slightly.

"Now."

"Let me talk about something else first."

Then, another sentence was heard.

Everyone's eyes followed Xia Le and saw two figures walking slowly towards them from not far away.

One of them was tall and strong, his navy uniform was stretched very tight, the other had a cigar hanging from the corner of his mouth and a faint smile on his face.

Both of them were wearing navy uniforms, navy caps, and their chests were covered with various medals.

“We will fill the two big-name spots.”

Xia Le's words caused a burst of exclamations.

"It's indeed them!"

"The user of the natural Sand-Sand Fruit, the former Vice Admiral Crocodile. Rumor has it that he once went undercover as a pirate and even became one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea. He is extremely powerful."

"The other is the devil's lieutenant general, Douglas Barrett. Commander of the West Sea, the man who stopped Pluto Rayleigh in the Battle of Marineford!"

"Their strength has definitely reached the general level."

"But how could there be only the two of them? In that battle, Rossinandi, Vice Admiral Buggy, Vice Admiral Smoker, Vice Admiral Kuina and others all had powerful strength that could compete with Whitebeard!"

"Nonsense, how can it be possible to mention so many generals at once?"

"You know, the position of admiral in the navy is a crucial position. Not only must one have strong strength, but also extremely high qualifications and prestige."

"..."

The scene was boiling, people in the audience started a heated discussion, and then there was a burst of applause.

In this warm atmosphere, Crocodile and Barrett slowly came in front of everyone, bowed and saluted.

Then he turned around and stood straight in front of Xia Le.

"Congratulations, you've finally made it this far."
