All kidding aside, Rocks really asked me to be the captain!

About a week after the World Power Hall meeting ended, Steel Bone Sora in the Admiral's office at the Navy Headquarters also received a special order from the Five Elders.

Although he was personally somewhat puzzled by the Five Elders' battle plan, he ultimately chose not to doubt it.

Steel Bone Sora gathered all the high-end combat forces that the Navy Headquarters could currently mobilize in the conference room. The scene was almost crowded with a large number of high-ranking naval officers with various bandages and medicines wrapped around their bodies.

Among them, the two admirals of the Navy Headquarters, Sengoku and Zephyr, who had the highest combat power, were the most seriously injured.

In the battle of God Valley some time ago, although on the surface they were the captain of the Rocks Pirates who was besieged by many people.

But if such a high-intensity battle continues, it is natural that some serious injuries will occur.

However, after the war, Sengoku got his wish and replaced Sora Aramaki as admiral, becoming the new admiral of the Marine Headquarters.

So far, the three admirals in the Marine Headquarters are Sengoku, Zephyr and Garp.

Although Garp has not yet directly proposed it, he just needs to confirm the news that he will become the admiral of the Marine Headquarters.

But as his old comrade, Kong is still very confident that he can directly convince this stubborn Garp.

"Everyone! Today is my first large-scale meeting as the new admiral of the Navy Headquarters!"

"The content of this meeting is divided into three major items. The first item is that this Marshal nominates Vice Admiral Garp to be promoted to the rank of Admiral of the Navy Headquarters and submits a task report to the Holy Land!"

"Since its establishment, our Marine Headquarters has maintained the positions of three top-ranking admirals. Since there is currently one vacancy, Vice Admiral Garp will fill the position. Do you have any objections?"

Kong Gu, who was sitting in the marshal's exclusive seat, scanned the surrounding naval high-ranking officials who were making a commotion with a resolute look.

Needless to say, Garp's personal strength is definitely recognized by all the navy.

But this guy has made a lot of mistakes because he often doesn't follow orders. In order to avoid other senior executives from having opinions, it is better to directly propose a solution at the meeting.

For example, openly throwing shells by hand at sea affected surrounding naval colleagues and injured a large number of soldiers under the residual power of the shells.

Or maybe he disobeyed the arrest order from the Navy Headquarters and chose to use all his strength to smash the head of the pirate with the power of the Devil Fruit to death!

There are also countless other problems such as being late for meetings and eating snacks, not clocking in and out on time, taking more leave than going to work, and so on.

However, to Kong Gu's surprise, none of the senior naval officers stood up to refute the report that Vice Admiral Garp was promoted to the rank of general.

"In that case, then this matter is settled! Vice Admiral Garp will be officially promoted to the highest-ranking admiral of the Marine Headquarters from today!"

However, Konggu's words had not yet fallen.

Outside the door of the conference room, a tall guy with incredibly muscular body suddenly rushed in.

“Hahahahahahaha, Konggu, you old bastard, you actually held a meeting secretly without informing me!”

"Who said I'm going to be an admiral? That's simply alarmist!"

"Listen up! Everyone! I, Monkey D. Garp, declare here that I will never be promoted to the admiral of the Marine Headquarters~wuhahahaha~"

Garp opened his mouth wide and stuffed a whole bag of senbei into it, while bluntly rejecting the proposal to be promoted to admiral of the navy.

As we all know, this is the third time he has rejected the invitation to the position of general.

The first two times were promoted by the previous Admiral Netanyahu of the Navy Headquarters.

Now that Netanya had died in the Valley of God, Garp had thought that he could finally have some peace and quiet, but he never expected this.

When it was Cyborg Sora's turn to take the stage, he was actually nominated to be the admiral.

Who is he, Kap?

The body weighs more than 300 kilograms, and the anti-bone alone weighs 299 kilograms.

A free man like him would never allow his body to serve the likes of the Celestial Dragons!

"Kapp!!!"

"Don't act so recklessly towards me! This is an order, do you understand!!!"

Kong Gu, who was sitting in the conference room, looked at Garp in front of him with a frown on his face. Garp was like a piece of meat on a rolling pin and completely disobeyed orders.

The Five Elders issued an order for him to fill the position of Admiral of the Marine Headquarters.

But now the senior officers in the Navy Headquarters are basically at a stage of strength gap, and no one is capable of taking this position.

However, directly issuing conscription orders to recruit admirals from all over the world would be unfair to those marines who have dedicated their entire lives to a just cause.

After much thought, Konggu could only set his target on Karp.

Originally, he wanted to take advantage of Garp's absence to directly promote him to the position of Admiral of the Marine Headquarters.

But he never expected that someone leaked the news and let this guy know the plan of the meeting.

"Marshal Kong really has a hot temper~"

"However, if you want me to volunteer to become the admiral of the Navy Headquarters, you have to step over my dead body first!"

"As a qualified navy, the first thing you need to do is to be truly willing to dedicate yourself to a just cause, rather than degrading yourself and becoming a running dog of the Celestial Dragons!!!"

Garp obviously didn't tolerate the temper of Admiral Konggu.

After all, Kong Gu was not much older than him in terms of military service. They were both soldiers of the same year, so who was going to scare whom?

In addition, once he becomes the admiral of the Marine Headquarters, he will have to personally pay his respects and serve the Celestial Dragons.

When he thought about how he had to serve the Celestial Dragons despite his strength, Garp's disgust increased by more than 100 times.

"Justice also needs financial support! Without the Celestial Dragons, how can our Navy Headquarters afford to pay for food and wages? Don't let me talk without any pain!!!"

"Do you think you don't have to serve the Celestial Dragons if you don't become an admiral of the Marine Headquarters?"

"The old men from the Five Elders have already said that once the Rocksea Group launches an attack on the Holy Land, our Navy Headquarters will directly dispatch combat forces to the Holy Land to guard the world's nobles!"

Seeing that Garp was unmoved, Konggu had no choice but to give up and stop forcing this guy to become the admiral of the navy.

Anyway, no matter whether he becomes a general or not, he will eventually go to the holy land to protect the Celestial Dragons.

"Tsk, you're still trying to protect the holy land? We just fought a desperate battle in the Valley of the Gods and annihilated the Rocks Pirates. Then everything would be fine!"

"One by one, they started to back off as soon as they saw Rocks eat the Dark-Dark Fruit~"

"I'm not afraid to tell you that the next battle to defend the Holy Land..."

"If I go there, I will not protect the Celestial Dragons!!!"

......

Cap: The formula is in seconds, what else is there to say?
