Chapter 312
"Now."
"Those who agree to the proposal to award Rosen the rank of general."
"Please raise your hands."
When Sengoku saw that no one raised their hands in the huge conference room, he felt a long-lost excitement in his heart.
He hadn't seen such a united Navy headquarters for a long time.
The scene of a united front and sincere unity like now can be traced back to the era when Roger, Shiki and Edward Newgate, the three dream pirates, dominated the Grand Line.
The Navy at that time was not the current overlord of the sea, but could only be described as precarious.
Black Arm retired.
Kizaru, Aokiji, and Akainu are still developing.
The huge Navy headquarters is supported by the two pillars of Sengoku and Garp.
And what about the Navy's opponents?
The Flying Pirates are in their heyday and dominate the world.
The Roger Pirates are unscrupulous and pursue the end of the Grand Line.
The Whitebeard Pirates are powerful and have sons everywhere.
Except for the Whitebeard Pirates, which were still developing, any pirate group, whether Roger or Hiku, could challenge the Navy Headquarters at that time.
This is why Shiki has always ignored the Navy and even dared to break into Maryford alone.
Not to mention that in addition to the three fantasy pirates, there are Monkey D. Dragon's Revolutionary Army, as well as Baloric Redfield, Djorkor Mihawk, Crocodile and many other big pirates who were rampant at the time.
Facing such a powerful pirate world.
The Navy Headquarters did not fall, but showed unprecedented unity.
Garp and Sengoku built high walls in front to protect the Navy from wind and rain.
Zephyr stored food in the back to grow crops for the Navy.
The Navy's young shoots, led by Borsalino, Sakaski and Kuzan, are growing wildly.
It was not until the three admirals and a large number of vice admirals of the headquarters developed that the headquarters of the navy became the overlord of the sea that surpassed all the pirate forces in the Grand Line.
But from being in a precarious situation to being the overlord of the sea.
This change also made the originally united navy become factional and tit-for-tat because of its strength.
Faced with this situation, even Sengoku, Garp and Zephyr were powerless.
Because the three of them often disagreed, but they were not as hostile as the three admirals.
However.
This situation of justice struggle and admirals hating each other that lasted for more than ten years finally came to an end because of the sudden appearance of a man who conquered the heroes and marshals of the old era and the three admirals of the new era one by one.
Instead, it was replaced by a far greater unity and cohesion than before.
"I agree."
When he heard Zhan Guo say that those who agree to grant Rosen the rank of general should raise their hands, Borsalino first put the nail clippers in his hand back into his pocket, and then he, who was always ambiguous, was the first to make a decision today.
"Ah la la la la, I agree too."
After Borsalino, Kuzan pulled up the eye mask covering his eyes, put away his sleepy look, and replaced it with a full of energy that he only had before the O'Hara incident, when he pursued the burning justice period.
"Second."
Sakaski, who has always been incompatible with Kuzan, but basically opposes the other party's proposals, reached a consensus with Kuzan again today.
Like Kuzan, he raised his right hand in the video screen.
"Counting it up, this should be the fourth general student I have taught, right?"
Zeffa stopped staring at the Five Elders, but grinned and raised his right hand.
"His martial arts surpass Garp's, his civil administration surpasses Sengoku's, and he is kind and tolerant. I really can't find any reason to disagree."
He shook his head and raised his right hand.
Not to mention the relationship between Gion and Rosen, Rosen's strength, military achievements and prestige, which are unrivaled in the entire army, made her convinced and could only raise her hand in approval.
"Hahahaha."
"Surpassing me, although I am a little unconvinced, but it is indeed the fact!"
"After all, even if I were ten years younger, I would not be able to do the feat of flattening the Hive alone."
After eating the senbei in his hand, Garp smiled and raised his right hand.
Although he was in the East China Sea, he had watched the video sent to him by Sengoku last night.
Soloing Wang Zhi Pirates without injury.
Such strength, even when he defeated the Rocks Pirates, he did not have it.
"You should all be aware of the nature and role of the Naval Criminal Investigative Service."
"Ever since Rosen graduated early and left the headquarters, I have been keeping my eyes on him and have never looked away."
"I can bet on the title of dark horse. Regarding Rosen becoming the admiral of the navy, he deserves it."
Tian Zheng also raised his hand to express his opinion.
As the Naval Criminal Investigative Service,He was not only looking at the pirates, the Revolutionary Army and other external enemies, but also the internal personnel of the Navy.
His statement was undoubtedly equivalent to announcing something to the Five Elders.
Rosen's background.
Rosen's resume.
Rosen's justice.
Every aspect was impeccable.
He was a role model for the generals.
After witnessing everyone's statements, the Five Elders were still expressionless and silent, and just looked at Sengoku.
Because as the Admiral of the Navy, he also had a vote, and even this vote had the power of veto.
In other words.
Even if everyone present chose to agree, as long as Sengoku voted against, he could still veto this vote.
Even if they had guessed the answer in Sengoku's heart, they still looked at Sengoku.
They hoped that the other party would be as shown in the O'Hara incident.
Between justice and the government, choose the government.
"Your Excellency the Five Elders."
"And."
"Everyone present."
Zhan Guo looked at the Five Elders with a deep and indifferent look, which made the five world government's supreme rulers feel extremely unfamiliar:
"Regarding the use of Death God as Rosen's code name for the general."
"What do you think?"
As soon as these words came out.
Whether it was Garp and Sakaski on the video call, or everyone present, their faces changed in horror.
Even Rosen was slightly moved.
God.
This word is taboo in the Grand Line and cannot be used casually.
Everything related to God is exclusive to the Celestial Dragons.
No matter who dares to use the word God, the consequences are self-evident.
For example.
Valley of the Gods.
As a direct agency of the World Government, the Navy Headquarters must always avoid suspicion.
But now, as the marshal, Sengoku, who has always been regarded by the outside world as extremely loyal to the World Government, actually said in front of many high-ranking naval officials and the Five Elders that he would use Death God as Rosen's code name for the admiral.
Although it was an inquiry, as a naval marshal, could he not know the Five Elders, the World Government, and the taboos of the Celestial Dragons?
Of course not.
But Sengoku still chose to do so.
This is equivalent to expressing his position in front of the Five Elders and all the high-ranking naval officials.
Between justice and the government, he chose justice, and his determination was unprecedentedly firm.
He was so determined that he not only agreed to Rosen becoming the code name for the admiral, but even violated the taboos of the World Government for this.
"Sengoku."
"Do you know what you are doing?"
The Five Elders, who had been silent all the time, finally broke their defense.
Saint Satan spoke first.
"You have been a Marine Admiral for so many years, so I don't need to remind you what propriety is, right?"
Maz looked at Zhan Guo expressionlessly, his eyes were chilling even through the video screen.
Not just them.
The other three of the Five Elders also stared at Zhan Guo coldly.
For a moment.
A gloomy, heavy, and chilling atmosphere swept the entire conference room.
