Pirate: I am the nephew of Akainu

Chapter 135 The Navy's Foresight

The warship entered the calm zone, this is not the first time they have crossed the calm zone.

But for such a dangerous place, no matter how many times you pass by, you need to take it seriously.

Hughes sat cross-legged on the deck, perceiving the surrounding sea area aggressively. The sea stone technology is still quite reliable. There are many giant sea kings swimming on the bottom of the sea, but no warship above his head has been found.

Leaving the windless belt, they returned to the great route.

Kyle took out Marlin Vandor's permanent pointer, which is the basic equipment distributed by each admiral, so they can go directly to the Navy headquarters without needing to locate islands.

On the way, the pirates in the first half of the great route were much more active than before.

This is because the Alabasta Naval Base, which is the gateway to the great route, has all the elite navy transferred away by Hughes, and the remaining navy is not enough to deal with the new pirates from the three sea areas.

Generally speaking, there are very few pirates who take the initiative to attack warships, unless they meet a pirate who wants to become famous.

Those people are so bold that they dare to do anything, and robbing warships is the fastest way to become famous.

Hughes and the others have dealt with a few unsightly pirates, all of whom are quite capable. The ruthless people who dare to do such things have a few brushes in their hands, but they are not very lucky.

It was Hughes they robbed, a big bad wolf in the skin of a rear admiral.

Occasionally, when encountering some pirates who are attacking, Hughes will send people to stop them and save innocent civilians.

For the rest of the pirate ships he met, as long as he didn't take the initiative to provoke trouble, he would treat it as if he didn't see it.

After all, there are too many pirates in the Great Pirate Era.

If he catches them one by one, it will take ten and a half months to reach Marin Fando, and then the Warring States Period will blow their noses and stare.

Even so, they still sailed for three days and two nights, and finally at noon on the third day, they saw the heavy justice gate of the Navy Headquarters.

Entering Marin Vanduo needs to go through some complicated procedures. Kyle confirmed with the documents and the guards one by one. After everything was correct, Hughes and the others were allowed to enter Marin Vanduo.

The warship docked at the No. [-] dock.

The warship will be doing maintenance work here, and the sailors stepped off the warship with their luggage. They are all sailors who followed Hughes from Marin Vandor to Alabasta.

Most of the people's family members are in the towns near Marin Fando, and returning to the Navy headquarters this time can be regarded as a family leave for them.

Therefore, after the ship docked at the port, Hughes immediately issued an order to disband. Everyone cheered and went home with their luggage to visit their relatives.

Of course, some are happy and some are sad.

The ashes of the navy who died in past missions will also be handed over to the Navy Logistics Department, and they will entrust them to the families of the dead navy.

The work of handing over the ashes was carried out by Hughes himself. He handed over the ashes one by one to his colleagues in the logistics department, and asked the other party to send them no matter what.

If their family members die unfortunately, they must find out the reason and tell themselves that if the pirates committed the crime, Hughes will let them know what real cruelty is.

After Hughes finished the work, there were only three people left on board.

Besides himself, there are two homeless people, Kyle and Hawkins.

"Why, nowhere to go." Hughes said with a smile: "Hawkins, just go with me, Kyle, you should have a place to live in Marlin Vandor, and I won't keep you."

Kyle joined the navy earlier than Hughes, and this group of people has real estate in Marlin Fandor. Although it is a public property, it is also a standard small second floor.

Like Hughes, the navy who joined the navy at a relatively late time point happened to catch up with the navy's explosive soldiers in the era of the great pirates, and lived in dormitories during the school officer period.

After becoming a major general, he was allocated a second-floor villa, which was also public property.

After retirement or resignation, the house needs to be returned for use by other naval officers.

It is also a difficult thing to settle permanently in Marine Vandor, the headquarters of the Navy. You must know that this is the safest island in Pirate World, and there are countless businessmen who want to buy real estate here.

Hughes once thought about whether the financial crisis within the Navy could be resolved by selling real estate. He had a very complete set of instructions for real estate speculation.

It's all off-topic, how could the navy engage in this kind of thing.

"That... I haven't lived in my house for a long time, can I live with you." Kyle said a little coyly: "I can cook for you and clean up the house if I have nothing to do."

Hughes thought for a while, and nodded in agreement with Kyle's request. There are quite a lot of rooms in his house, and it's no problem for Kyle to come and live.

After talking to the craftsmen at the dock, Hughes and the others packed their luggage and left the harbour.

The three came to Hughes' residence, and Hughes turned over a boulder in the yard and took out the door key hidden underneath.

Open the door, there is no mess as expected, the air in the room is fresh and there is no dust.

Someone should have cleaned it. Hughes took the two of them to their respective rooms, put down their luggage, packed up their military uniforms, and was about to go to the Marshal's office to see Warring States.

Before leaving, Celtic asked Hughes where the kitchen was, apparently wanting to show off his skills.

Walking in Marin Vanduo, it can be regarded as revisiting the old place, Hughes was quite emotional.

The navies who came and went saluted him, and occasionally met one or two vice admirals, and he had to salute and say hello too.

Hughes didn't know many admirals, and most of them were out on missions, and he didn't meet any acquaintances along the way.

When I came to the Admiral's Office, the receptionist at the door welcomed the Navy, and after learning of Hughes' identity, he took him directly to the Navy's Office
"The Marshal of the Warring States Period has been waiting for you for a long time. He has specifically ordered that as long as you come, he will take you to see him immediately."

Outside the marshal's office, there were many admirals who came to report their work, including some vice admirals.

Seeing that Hughes was brought directly into the office, many people underestimated Hughes' identity there.

"You don't even know him." A rear admiral with sly eyebrows said: "Admiral Sakaski's nephew, Rear Admiral Hughes, defeated the Golden Lion Pirates together with Lieutenant Admiral Zhiyuan a few days ago, and the navy is very hot. general candidate."

Saying that Hughes is a candidate for the admiral is a bit flattering Hughes.

At present, the three generals are still at the peak stage of their own combat power, and they will not decline for a long time.

It is a bit too hasty to discuss the candidates for the admiral at this time. Besides, Hughes' qualifications in the navy are still young, and there are many vice admirals staring at the position of admiral.

This sentence spread to their ears, it will inevitably cause unhappiness.

Sure enough, a certain vice admiral who was listening on the side snorted coldly: "A candidate for admiral, first become a vice admiral. Who knows if he was watching from the edge during the process of defeating the Golden Lion Pirates."

He didn't deliberately lower his voice, these words were like whispering in his ear to the admiral whose physical fitness was far beyond ordinary people.

Hughes could hear it naturally, and looked back at this person without expressing too much.

The receptionist opened the door and let Hughes into the office, while he waited outside the door.

In Hughes' impression, the desk of the Warring States Period was always piled with unfinished documents, and he was also like an old scalper, running the navy in a simple way.

Zhan Guo was still processing the documents, Hughes didn't bother Zhan Guo, just stood in the house and waited quietly.

After a long time, Zhan Guo finished instructing the documents in his hand, and seemed to find that Hughes had arrived: "I'm back."

"Well, I entered the port an hour ago." Hughes replied briefly, without asking what Warring States asked him to do.

"Compared to before, you are much calmer now." Zhan Guo first praised Hughes, and then his face collapsed: "I don't know if you thought about it quietly like today before doing those things."

Hughes remained silent, and his standard military posture expressed his attitude of admitting his mistake.

The best way to deal with it now is to respond with silence. As the admiral of the navy, how can Warring States scold him for hours.

Hughes didn't believe it. He felt that the Warring States Period would be misfired in at most ten minutes.

In fact, Warring States is more qualified than Hughes expected. He just reprimanded him a few times and stopped mentioning Hughes' mistakes.

It's not that he cares about Hughes' identity, but because of Hughes' mistakes, which are difficult to get to the bottom of.

It's not that he has done anything to bully men and women, which violates the justice of the navy, but just violates the regulations set by the world government for the navy.

For the constraints of the world government, the older generation of navy has always turned a blind eye to it. If Hughes hadn't caused too much trouble, Warring States would not even have the intention to take care of him.

After the criticism has been said, let Hughes reflect on it in the East China Sea for a month.

Is it possible that people are really thrown to Judicial Island, stop joking.

Warring States now appreciates Hughes from the bottom of his heart, and even intends to train Hughes to become the soul of the navy in the future, continuing the legend of naval heroes.

"Your knife is Shiji's saber." Warring States glanced at the handle of the knife on Hughes' waist.

The admiral's office can be entered with weapons, and the admirals are all generals, and they never worry about other people's plotting.

Other people's swords may not be recognized by the Warring States, but the Golden Lion's Saber, the Warring States should not be too familiar.

Seeing this knife again is enough to prove Hughes and the others' previous intelligence that the golden lion Shiji really fell in the East China Sea.

"If you want to learn swords, swords are not easy to learn, and you can't eat too much." Warring States warned: "Your physical skills and fruit development are quite good. As long as you follow these two paths, you will reach the level of the three generals sooner or later."

Although Hughes' current strength has entered the rank of general, there are also differences in the combat power of general.

The current three generals of the navy are recognized as the strongest three generals in the history of the navy. They are comparable to the One Piece, and it is not Hughes who can compete at this stage.

The Warring States used them to compare Xius, obviously recognizing the current strength of Xius.

"You're still young, I want to give it a try." Hughes said calmly.

He is less than 25 years old now, and he still has a lot of time to waste. It is also the nature of young people to try new things while they are young.

Zhan Guo nodded and said nothing.

Even when he mentions the strength of Hughes, he always subconsciously ignores Hughes' age. It is really hard to imagine that such an outstanding genius will appear in the younger generation.

The digression was almost the same, and the Warring States also started to bring up the real thing: "I called you back this time, because I have something to tell you."

Hughes looked serious.

One Piece World has a communication tool, the phone bug, but generally, for more important news, it is better to choose a more secure way of communication.

For the navy, most of the things that can be treated like this by the Warring States will involve the world government, or some more important things.

"We intend to start a battle to break the current stable situation in the new world." Sengoku nodded the table and said: "The center of the war is here, and we will fight the four Pirate Kings in Marlin Fandor."

Hughes looked surprised. He knew that the Sengoku was talking about the battle on the top, but the plan for the battle on the top of the navy should not have been arranged until after Blackbeard handed over Ace to the navy.

There is still one year before that time. Could it be that the navy was planning the top battle earlier.

"Are you going to face the four Pirate Kings at the same time?" Hughes asked, Sengoku's tone didn't look like he was only looking for trouble with the Whitebeard Pirates.

"Of course not." Sengoku shook his head and said, "The combined efforts of the four Pirate Kings is a force that the navy cannot defeat at present. We can only defeat them one by one."

Hughes felt relieved, since he broke through one by one, the plot should continue to develop according to the original book.

"Then who do you plan to attack first?" Hughes asked knowingly.

"Whitebeard Pirates and Red Hair Pirates." Sengoku said in a deep voice, "Whitebeard must be eradicated no matter what. For pirates, his existence is a deterrent to all pirates."

"As long as Whitebeard does not die, there will be no chaos in the new world. Even Kaido and Charlotte Lingling will not have other ideas when Whitebeard is still alive."

A gleam of wisdom leaked from Sengoku's eyes: "Pirates want to compete for the position of One Piece, so we will create opportunities for them to kill each other, and the navy will take this opportunity to fully intervene in the new world."

From the current point of view, the four One Piece masters of the New World each control a large number of islands, and the Navy has no chance to intervene in the New World.

According to the time when the Navy intervened in the New World in the original book, it was after the death of Whitebeard that Akainu led the Navy to establish the Navy G1 base in the New World, which was later the Navy Headquarters.

Judging from the follow-up results, the strategic thinking of the Warring States Period is completely correct, but Hughes, who knows the follow-up plot, is also a little worried.

"Aren't you afraid, the pirates have really competed for a king, and he will command all the pirate forces." Hughes thought of the follow-up plot of One Piece.

In the future, Luffy will be there as expected in the Warring States Period, defeating Beast Kaido and Charlotte Lingling, and becoming the new One Piece.

Warring States' plan was as he expected, but he never worried that the pirates would really compete for a king.

You must know that except for Hughes, no one can guarantee that the person who becomes One Piece will be a kind-hearted person or a cunning villain.

"One Piece, what's the matter with the navy." Sengoku sneered: "It is the world government that cares about the secrets of the final island, not our navy. It doesn't matter who gets to Ralph Drew."

"As for the Pirate King commanding all the pirates, that's a fool's joke." Sengoku said firmly: "The Rocks Pirates were the uncrowned king back then, but what he couldn't do, others couldn't do."

"What a pirate is, no matter whether it is a mouse who puts interests first, or a dreamer with lofty ideals, he will not be inferior to others."
