Ultimate Blade Shadow in One Piece Navy

"Colonel Gu Yina, thank you for your hard work. Are you not injured?"

During the New Year, the navy in the New World did not have a holiday at this time. On the contrary, many pirates drank alcohol on New Year's Eve, which caused some swelling. The detachment led by Stoloberg had just experienced a battle with the pirates. .

As for Gu Yina, a seconded sailor, Stoloberg treated her much more considerately than he treated his own members. After the battle, he immediately came over to greet her.

Gu Yina was a little embarrassed. She looked at the bottle of drink handed over by Stoloberg and her hands stained with dirt and blood. She didn't know what to do.

Stoloberg knew much better than Gu Yina. Upon seeing this, he immediately unscrewed the cap of the drink in his hand and handed it to Gu Yina again. Dirty hands would not affect drinking from the bottle, but it would definitely affect opening the bottle cap. .

Gu Yina couldn't refuse, so she took the drink and started to drink it, but before she could finish a sip of the drink, Stoloberg started greeting her again.

"Come on! Lord! Come here with some water, clean up Colonel Gu Yina, and take care of Colonel Gu Yina's saber by the way!"

"Yes, sir!"

Not far away, a navy captain who was also a colonel hurriedly found a bucket of water and ran over. As soon as Gu Yina took a sip of the drink, Stoloberg took the bottle back.

Colonel Lord held up a bucket and waited to help Gu Yina wash her hands. Gu Yina felt that things were becoming more embarrassing.

She is not a noble, so there is really no need to be so polite to her, right?But she couldn't let Lord just hold the bucket, so although she was uncomfortable, Gu Yina still accepted Lord's kindness.

After washing his hands, Lord waited for Gu Yina to unload the grand palace. Stoloberg also said at the right time: "In this battle at sea, once the sword is stained with water and blood, and corroded by the sea wind, it is particularly easy to rust. , must be maintained regularly.”

"That...I can do it myself..."

Gu Yina still declined. After all, she was already accustomed to maintaining swords. During her time in Shuangyue Village, she often maintained the swords at home.

After joining the Zhanye detachment, the maintenance of Skylar's saber was also left to her. Although the black sword was no longer rusty, the handle, sheath, and equipment also needed maintenance.

Therefore, Gu Yinna was regarded as a sword maintainer, but she was suddenly asked to change from helping others maintain their swords to letting others maintain their own swords. Gu Yinna really couldn't express it.

Today is the first day she came to the Stoloberg detachment. For most of the previous month, he had been assisting in mission execution on Ghost Spider's warship. Ghost Spider was even more boring than Skyler, so Gu Yina was seamless. Connected.

But the Stoloberi detachment had a different scene. Gu Yina originally thought that as a hawk general, Stoloberi should also be the kind of general who was not good at expressing goodwill.

But the fact is... After coming to Stoloberg's detachment, Gu Yina felt like she had entered the nanny experience center. Everyone from Stoloberg to everyone else was extremely... " considerate ".

This made it very difficult for Gu Yina to adapt. After all, there were no caring people in the Zhanye detachment. At most, they were close friends like Yisheng or Brooke.

Seeing that Gu Yina didn't want to accept it, Stoloberi waved to Lord. Lord also left knowingly. Stolobery looked at Gu Yina who was still embarrassed and said:

"Colonel Gu Yinna, if there is anything you don't like, just say it."

"Lieutenant General Stoloberg, you...you don't need to pay too much attention to me. I'm just a navy man."

Gu Yinna, who mustered up her courage, said to Stoloberi. Hearing this, Stoloberi patted his forehead, not caring about the dirt on his hands when he just took the bottle, and smiled at Gu Yin. Na said:

"You don't need to be too embarrassed. Not all marines are like your teacher. In other words, your teacher is in the minority, and she was not like this before.

We were all in the same detachment back then, and she was also a very interesting person, but what happened later forced her to hide her interesting side in front of many people.

In other words, I actually can’t tell whether she is hiding her interesting side in front of most people, or whether she is deliberately pretending to be interesting in front of a few people so as not to worry others.

You have been with her for several years, and you should know better than me what she is like now, but there is no doubt that she had to give up a lot of herself.

She was not like this from the beginning, and this is not what you should learn, do you understand? "

Gu Yina nodded thoughtfully, and then asked: "Lieutenant General Stoloberg, were you also in the No. 20 Sixth Detachment of General Kizaru back then?"

"Haha~ It seems that my reputation is not obvious."

Seeing that Gu Yina didn't understand her so well, Stoloberi laughed and teased her, but Gu Yina took it seriously and quickly explained: "That's not what I meant. I'm sorry, Lieutenant General Stolobery."

"It's okay, you're still too nervous." Stoloberg waved his hand and said, "I am indeed from the No. 20 Sixth Team. Don't you think it's incredible?

Moreover, when your teacher entered the No. 20 Sixth Detachment, I was still the adjutant of the detachment. General Kizaru stopped going on missions at that time, so... I can shamelessly say that I was the one who led your teacher through the Past the recruit period.

Looking back, I suddenly realized that 20 years passed so quickly. The year your teacher was in the No. 20 Sixth Team was the most painful year for me.

She made trouble everywhere, spoke freely, and even dared to say some treacherous words in a place like Judiciary Island. At that time, I often thought, if I didn't stare at your teacher for a second, then she would get into trouble.

He even got into trouble that ruined the future of the entire detachment.

But she was also a person who couldn't be disliked. At that time, because we caught the pirates alive, we would get a little more reward, so she caught them all alive.

She even urged the entire detachment to accompany her to carry out justice, but of course, she was the one who took action and the rest of us enjoyed the results.

During the year your teacher stayed in the No. 20 Sixth Detachment, the number of missions completed by the detachment and the number of pirates captured were the same as in the previous three years. It can be said that everyone got enough wealth.

I even got the opportunity to be promoted to a general because of my "meritorious service" that year. Of course, General Kizaru knew all this, so he didn't let me be promoted, but let me continue to hone my skills. Two years.

At that time, I was thinking that the Navy was going to produce another Lieutenant General like Garp..."

Stoloberg lowered his voice and said, "The lawless navy star."

After hearing Stoloberg's words, which simultaneously slandered Lieutenant General Garp and her teacher, Gu Yina suddenly smiled. This was almost impossible in normal times, after all, she would subconsciously defend her teacher.

Stoloberg himself laughed, and then added: "What I talked to you about today must not be told to others. I still want to continue to serve the Navy."

Gu Yina nodded. Although she knew that Stoloberg was joking, she gradually relaxed and began to cooperate with Stoloberg.

But Stoloberg quickly put away his smile and said: "At that time, no one would think your teacher was boring, and no one would even think that she would become the ruthless Gray Lady today.

Do you know when things took a turn for the worse? "

"Justice Crusade?"

Gu Yina almost blurted out, after all, everyone knew that the dividing line of Skyler's growth was that justice expedition, but Stoloberg shook his head.

A puzzled look appeared on Gu Yina's face, and as Skyler's adjutant and boss at that time, Stoloberg knew very well the days before Skyler's real rise.

Stoloberg pursed his lips and said: "The first member of the Zhanye detachment is named Cass. You can't find this name in the personnel list of the Zhanye detachment."

"I know the name..."

Gu Yina frowned, and then said: "I saw him on the warship, but no one on the warship knew who he was."

"That was the first person to recognize the justice pursued by Navy Skylar Gray. It's a pity that he didn't have time to graduate and join the Zhanye detachment..."

Having said this, Stoloberg sighed. Gu Yina had already guessed what happened to the navy man named Cass and stopped asking.

"Within the navy, every general, and even every navy, has his or her own definition of justice, but only those navy who are recognized will become generals.

And Cass is your teacher's initial motivation. After his accident, your teacher was so impatient that others recognized her justice, that she went to a new world that she shouldn't have gone to at all.

But at that time, her justice was even imperfect, and she was unable to balance her own justice and strength. That justice expedition was definitely a fatal blow to your teacher.

The price of justice is very small, and the amount of strength required to carry justice cannot be defined, but for your teacher, it is the weight of 219 heroic spirits.

She had given up on herself, and she had launched life-saving attacks on the Whitebeard Pirates again and again, because as long as she died, this burden would not fall on her, but she survived in the end.

So from that year on, she became more than just Skylar Gray. She lived for her own justice and for the victims who were willing to use their lives to support her justice. This made her become the Skyler Gray she is now. Caleb Gray. "

Stoloberg wanted to reach out and pat Gu Yina, but as soon as he raised his hand, he found some dirt on his hand. He retracted his hand and continued:

"It's normal that you can't agree with her justice, because her justice is the result of making mistakes along the way, and compounding mistakes again and again.

It would be difficult for any sane and rational person to truly recognize her justice.

But the times need justice like her, and there is no shortage of new people in this era who are as crazy as her, or who have a crazy heart hidden inside. These people make up the Zhanye detachment.

No one's justice is completely correct, and there is no high or low understanding of justice. It's just that your teacher is so outstanding that her justice is so dazzling.

So you don't need to accept her justice, you can find the justice you really want. "

Gu Yina pursed her lips, and then asked: "Lieutenant General Stoloberg, these are not just what you want to say to me, right?"

"Indeed, you are just too "rational". Maybe even if she drives you away, you will think clearly about the reasons behind it, so she will let you make your choice freely. She did ask me to talk to you about this."

Stoloberg admitted generously. He looked at Gu Yina, his tone became serious, and said: "But next, is what I want to say to you. The biggest difference between you and your teacher is It's just that you're not pure enough.

Your impurity will make you constantly doubt, doubt others, and even more doubt yourself. It's not that you don't know what you want, but you know that the justice you want also has shortcomings.

You cannot implement your own justice single-mindedly, and you even lack the courage to admit the justice you know. "

After listening to Stoloberg's words, Gu Yina's face darkened, but she nodded in agreement.

She is not a blindly confident person. She has been prone to self-doubt since she was a child, especially when she was a child. She has been afraid to ask other people questions since she was a child.

Even if it was her own father, she would not talk to anyone about her inner confusion unless her father asked first.

And every time she confided her confusion to her father, while his father would answer her questions, he would blame himself for neglecting his daughter. This made Gu Yina even more afraid to discuss herself in front of Koushiro.

When she grew a little older and started to practice swordsmanship with her father, she would fall into self-doubt that she could not inherit the dojo left by her grandfather and father.

At that time, her father pointed out a path for her and gave her an idol, that is Skyler, so Gu Yina really wanted to be someone like Skyler, but after truly embarking on Skyler's path, She began to doubt again whether this path was suitable for her.

She couldn't adapt to the real Skyler because she thought it was crazy and extreme, but she couldn't find a path that suited her better, so she had been living in the Zhanye detachment in a miserable way.

After thinking about it, this struggling and uncomfortable expression appeared on her face again. Stoloberg pointed at her face and said, "Look, you are like this again now."

Hearing this, Gu Yina showed a shameful expression, looked at Stolobery, and asked: "Lieutenant General Stolobery, is there any way to solve my situation...?"

However, Gu Yina had already prepared not to answer. After all, this was a question of her own character. But Stoloberg nodded and said, "It's very simple."

"what?"

Gu Yinna was a little surprised. After all, she had been in this situation for more than a day or two, but no one in the Zhanye detachment had ever told her that there was a solution.

Seeing Gu Yina's surprised look, Stoloberg also showed a relaxed smile and said: "You can't solve your problems if you stay in the Zhanye detachment, because that group of people all support you. The teacher is a righteous madman.

Of course, this lunatic is not a derogatory term, as I said, this era needs such justice.

But this group of "lunatics" are equally extreme and determined enough, so they can't learn to adapt, go backwards, or turn around.

You, and everyone in the Zhanye detachment, have forgotten one thing, that is, justice can be tried.

Your teacher is the kind of person who still has to forge a way out even though there is no way forward. But... such a general is unique even in the navy.

When one path fails, you can actually find another path.If you feel that justice is not suitable for you, you can adjust the justice in your heart, change it, and try it. "

"But... isn't the Navy a person who upholds justice?"

Gu Yinna asked, and Stoloberg nodded and said: "It is true that people who cannot uphold justice are of no value to the navy, but... no one has ever said that one must uphold the same justice.

General Aokiji has changed his justice, Marshal Warring States has changed his justice, and I have also changed the justice in my heart. This does not affect anything. Do you think General Aoki or Marshal Warring States cannot stick to justice? "

"This..."

Gu Yina was speechless for a moment. Seeing this, Stoloberg continued: "Don't be afraid of making mistakes. Just because you haven't done something wrong doesn't mean you have been doing the right thing. Do you understand?"

There was too much information that could not be digested in a short time. Gu Yina didn't know how to give the correct answer, but she still nodded thoughtfully.

"Okay, let's go back and rest. We have encountered more and more pirates recently. We must be ready to fight at any time."

Stoloberg said, returning to his caring uncle appearance. Gu Yina nodded, smiled, looked up at Stolobery, and said:

"Lieutenant General Stoloberg, you are so smart. No wonder the teacher keeps saying that your big head is not a decoration."

After saying that, Gu Yina took a puff of smoke and ran away. This was the first time she "made a mistake". Stoloberg was stunned when he heard Gu Yina's words that were completely inconsistent with her usual appearance.

After a while, he also laughed, sighing in his heart at Gu Yinna's practical application, and sighing that Skyler really has the talent to turn anyone into a bastard.

He reached out and scratched his big, extended head, but his expression soon changed, and he forgot about the dirt on his hands again!

From today onwards, Gu Yina, who is temporarily seconded to the Stoloberg detachment, no longer demands that she does not make mistakes, although some willful behaviors need to be filled by Stoloberg.

But for some reason, Stoloberg felt particularly adaptable, just like... he felt when he was young.

The Navy's work in taking over Whitebeard's waters is also progressing. When the daily reports are sent back to the Navy headquarters, the headquarters is a little surprised.

They still underestimated Skyler's deterrent to pirates, although as the navy advanced, the speed actually slowed down because there would be more and more frequent battles.

More than half of the Whitebeard Sea has been taken over by the navy, which means that the living space of these pirates who originally lived in the Whitebeard Sea has been reduced by half.

At the same time, Skyler's refusal to take action also made them feel lucky again. As long as they defeated the navy, they might be able to occupy a piece of territory!

With such a mood, more and more pirates chose to fight the navy. However, this time the navy sent too luxurious a fleet with a higher standard than the Demon Slayer Order. It was easy to deal with the pirates.

Although the pace was inevitably slowed down, in less than four months, more than half of Whitebeard's sea area had been taken over, which was something no one had expected before.

In the conference room, Warring States looked at the report and said very happily: "It seems that as Garp guessed, Skyler may really take over the entire Whitebeard Sea in one year."

Seeing Seng Guo's silly and happy look, the corner of He's mouth twitched, because this navy marshal was not only happy because of the navy's gains.

Just before the meeting started, she came to the conference room early as a habit, and heard Seng Guo muttering to himself there that as long as Skyler was fast enough, he could retire faster.

After all, the response from the World Government at that time was to ask the Warring States Period to properly handle post-war matters, and the most important and difficult post-war matter was to take down the Whitebeard Sea Area.

He was originally prepared to spend two years fighting a protracted war, but Skyler was so ambitious that he could at least retire a year early. How could he not be happy about that?

However, the atmosphere in the conference room was a bit strange at this time, because everyone knew that when Whitebeard Sea Territory was taken over, Warring States could retire, and Warring States' retirement meant... the succession of a new marshal.

At this time, Kizaru was cutting his nails leisurely and was the most relaxed person in the conference room. If Garp was here, the two might be able to compete, but Garp also returned to the new world after the New Year.

At this time, Akainu and Aokiji were staring at each other with big eyes and small eyes. After all, they both knew that the biggest "obstacle" to them becoming marshals was each other.

To become a marshal means to defeat the opponent, and the faster Skyler is, the shorter time they have to prepare.

However, these two people didn't know that Sengoku, He, Skyler and other big losers were digging a big hole for them to jump out of. What they wanted to defeat the opponent was not to use force.

After all, there seems to be no precedent for the position of Navy Marshal to be determined by force duel. After all, the Marshal is the person who commands the entire navy, and it is not just about strength.

What is more important is the ability in civil affairs and the control of naval personnel. If you do not have the ability to govern and cannot be recognized by other navies, then no matter how strong you are, you are not suitable to be a marshal.

Of course, there is another point, which is to obtain the recognition of the world government.

Warring States looked at the two people who were staring at each other with big eyes and small eyes, showed a hint of a smile, and suddenly said: "Let's talk about the new marshal?"
