Pirates: I will first max out the domineering color if I am not dead

"As for the strengthening of the New World Navy's jurisdiction over the islands."

Speaking of this, Xia Le frowned slightly, as if thinking about something.

After a moment, he raised his head and stared at the five people.

"Arrange it, Barrett!"

Hearing this, Barrett's eyes narrowed.

"Let's have an expanded meeting!"

"General officers, please be present as much as possible!"

"We need to determine the Navy's next operational objectives and future plans."

The deep voice made the five generals narrow their eyes.

"Of course, this is a discussion meeting, so all officers above the rank of general are allowed to participate."

Xia Le smiled again.

But the five admirals knew very well that the final judgment would still be made by the naval marshal in front of them.

But in any case, this expanded meeting was undoubtedly shocking.

Because since Xia Lesheng took up the position of marshal, he has never held such a large-scale meeting. Most tasks are resolved through high-level internal meetings, or even directly assigned by one person.

To be sure, the action was bound to be unexpected.

The order was quickly spread from the top to the bottom, and then the entire naval system was shocked.

From Marinford to the New World.

The scope of the navy's current influence can be described as vast. Although it still cannot be compared with the World Government, it can be said to be the largest in the world in the past eight hundred years.

In the afternoon of that day, a large number of warships could be seen returning from outside and docking at the Dressrosa port.

Next, a general-level officer with an extraordinary aura and a resolute face walked through the streets of Dressrosa with a serious expression on his face and headed for the headquarters.

Time passed, and three days had passed in the blink of an eye.

The new naval headquarters gathers a large number of officers above the rank of general.

There were people from major general to lieutenant general, all at different levels. They all sat in the spacious conference room with solemn and serious looks.

"What happened?"

"I was tracking a group of pirates not far from Elbaf. When I heard that the headquarters was going to hold a meeting, I rushed back immediately."

"I don't know. This kind of plenary meeting is the first since Marshal Xia Le took office."

"Come to think of it, I just found the clue to the fourth red historical text."

"What? The last piece of historical text? Then you will have made a great contribution!"

"Unlike you, we have found traces of the Revolutionary Army in the Kingdom of Lululia and are currently trying to capture them."

Conversations were heard one after another, and the entire navy meeting room was very noisy.

Speaking of which, things have been quite interesting recently.

The World Government was also holding a meeting, and the Navy was also summoning officers above the rank of general to gather here.

A moment later, the brigadiers arrived and landed quietly without causing any commotion.

It can be seen that Rossinante, Buggy, Smoker and others all have serious expressions on their faces, and it is obvious that they have been quite busy with their tasks recently.

Unlike simply fighting pirates, most of the generals have been dealing with administrative work recently, and are therefore often overwhelmed.

But there is no way around it. The navy is clearly developing into a huge country, and as a naval officer, it is also necessary to complete the transformation at this time.

After a while, five generals arrived.

The scene fell silent. The brigadier generals would often joke with their subordinates and perform tasks together with a smile on their faces.

The five generals have different positions and identities, which obviously means that their attitudes are also different.

"The generals are coming!"

"They should know the reason for this meeting!"

"I feel a little nervous for no apparent reason!"

As the gentle words were uttered, everyone's eyes were focused on the five generals.

But after the five people sat down, no one spoke.

Only Kizaru spoke to them with a smile.

"Don't think of me leaking any information to you!"

"I will tell you in a moment, Marshal."

After a pause, Kizaru showed a strange expression.

"can only say."

"This meeting will definitely turn your world upside down!"

Everyone became more curious and confused.

A meeting that could turn the world upside down?

Chapter 406: Naval Empire

Kizaru's words made the officers present even more curious.

But after the other party finished speaking, he closed his eyes, obviously not wanting to say another word, so everyone could only continue to wait.

Time passed by minute by minute.

At a certain moment, when a figure stepped into the conference room door, everyone's eyes changed.

"I'm late!"

The man came like a gust of wind, and soon sat at the other end of the long table, saying with a faint smile.

It seemed like a casual remark, but it perked up everyone.

The person who arrived was none other than the current Admiral of the Navy, Xia Le!

The man who is known as the invincible in the world, in the recent Onigashima peak battle, he single-handedly fought against world powerhouses such as Kaido, Big Mom, Red-Haired Shanks, Marshall Teach, Satan Saint, and Green Saint.

It was also after that battle that this man had undoubtedly occupied the ceiling of the world's combat power and became the undisputed number one.

He has a considerable number of admirers and believers all over the world, not to mention within the entire navy.

At this moment, one can clearly see that in the eyes of the generals present, all kinds of expressions such as fanaticism, reverence, excitement, and inspiration are emerging.

"It's Marshal Xia Le!"

"The most powerful and supreme commander of the navy!"

"A legendary hero!"

"..."

Countless praises came from the mouths of the generals.

The five admirals also opened their eyes at this moment, and were not surprised by this situation. Because, in addition to the general officers that had been in the navy before, a new batch of officers were promoted in the recent recruitment based on their abilities.

Therefore, many of these new young generals had actually never seen Xia Le.

"I won't say any more unnecessary nonsense."

"Now that everyone is almost here, let's officially begin our meeting!"

Xia Le sat there with a smile on his face, but his words were very powerful.

This crisp and decisive style made some newly appointed generals feel uncomfortable.

“We have been growing rapidly in New World in recent months.”

"The territories of Kaido, Big Mom, Marshall Teach, Red-Haired Shanks and others have all been taken over by us."

"Plus Dressrosa, and the scattered islands and fortresses around it."

"To put it bluntly, the navy today is in a very different position in the new world."

"It is a huge and powerful empire!"

By the end, the words became so powerful that they even echoed in the conference room.

What can be seen is that many officers present changed color, even the five generals.

empire!

These two simple words were not surprising when spoken by other people, because the navy's control was indeed very strong nowadays.

But when it came out from the mouth of Admiral Xia Le, it was different!

Given his status and position, the meaning of such words spoken in public is self-evident.

Xia Le glanced around and saw the shock of everyone present.

But he didn't care, and simply spoke again.

"You heard that right!"

"I used the word empire to describe the current navy!"

"In fact, it is no longer appropriate to describe ourselves as a simple navy!"

"instead."

"The words 'Navy Empire' are more interesting and more accurate!"

Xia Le said with a slight smile.

The generals looked at each other. Some of them understood Xia Le's meaning, and their expressions suddenly changed, and then they became excited again.

empire!

Marshal Xia Le actually wanted to build a huge maritime empire based on the navy!

This is undoubtedly shocking! But it is indeed the development trend of the navy under the current situation.

The navy that occupies many islands cannot be described as a simple army.

"The navy will follow the empire's procedures in the future."

“The specific details will be determined one by one later.”

Then, Xia Le smiled faintly again.

"Five generals."

"You will be responsible for managing Marinford, Dressrosa, Wano Country, Totland, Beehive Island and other regions, and be responsible for the stability and development of the local areas."

"Former vice admirals, Rosinante, Kuina, Buggy, Smoker, Chaton Kake, and Momotosa Gion, have been promoted to the position of admiral."

"Also, Lieutenant General Bartholomew Kuma, Donquixote Doflamingo, Boa Hancock, Gekko Moriah, Kozuki Oden and others have been promoted to the position of Lieutenant General!"

"Finally, there will be a group of people who will be promoted during this meeting, but I won't go into details here. There will be new notices issued later."

These simple words, but they were an announcement about the general's appointment, made it almost impossible for everyone present to react.

Even the five generals looked confused.

In the blink of an eye, their identities were transformed and they became like the Four Emperors of the Sea, responsible for the jurisdiction of many regions?

They control five regions respectively, namely Marinford, Dressrosa, Wano Country, Totland, and Beehive Island. Their status and power can be said to be second only to one person.

This is different from the previous generals who were only in charge of a certain department.

What Marshal Xia Le said this time was obviously about being in charge of all affairs of a region, and in terms of the scope of the region, his powers are no different from those of the king.

This is true power!

Even the five generals didn't react and were still confused.

Above the five of them is Xia Le, the chief marshal, who can also be called an emperor!

"Secondly!"
