Pirate: My template is too strong

In the conference room, Zhan Guo was panting like a cow, his braided beard sticking up high, and it was obvious that he was extremely excited.

Not only was he angry at his old comrade's betrayal, he was also very upset by what Zefa had said.

Lies are not sharp swords, truth is sharp.

It was indeed a dereliction of duty for him as the Admiral of the Navy that he failed to withstand the pressure from the Five Elders and allowed Whitebeard II to join the Seven Warlords of the Sea.

He is also partly responsible for the departure of Zefa and those senior naval officers.

Don't blame Zefa, don't blame those senior military officers.

If they were not disappointed with the navy, these people would be the navy's most loyal force and would never tolerate death for justice.

It’s not even Lowen’s fault, he just took Zefa in.

No, this damn guy is still to blame.

"Don't you have anything else to do, keeping an eye on the navy's talents all day long?"

Zhan Guo wanted to grab Luo Wen by the collar and ask him a question.

He was really surprised that Zefa was abducted to the Neo Navy less than two days after he left.

This efficiency, this intelligence.

It is hard not to think that Lowen is so efficient because he keeps an eye on the navy 24 hours a day.

It can only be said that he is worthy of being the biggest enemy of the World Government. Not only is his military power incredibly strong, he also excels in poaching talents.

Zhan Guo deeply felt that Luo Wen was a difficult enemy to deal with, even impossible to defeat.

Under Zhan Guo's low pressure, the conference room was silent. Everyone looked at Zhan Guo quietly, not daring to offend him.

Finally, He spoke up: "Zhan Guo, please say a few words. This problem must be solved."

"Ah."

Zhan Guo came back to his senses from his anger.

Anger can't solve any problems, he still has to face a lot of mess in reality.

"First of all, I want to apologize to my fellow naval officers and soldiers!"

Zhan Guo took a deep breath and bent down severely.

These words and actions immediately changed the atmosphere in the entire conference room, and everyone looked at Zhan Guo when he spoke.

"It is because I am incompetent as a marshal that some of my colleagues left the navy out of frustration."

"I apologize to you not to gain your forgiveness, but to ask you to give the Navy another chance, to give this Navy where you have served for more than ten years or even decades a chance!"

"I will appeal to the Five Elders to depose Whitebeard II and all the Seven Warlords of the Sea. If that fails, I will not be the Admiral of the Navy anymore!"

Zhan Guo spoke forcefully, having already made up his mind.

Violent suppression cannot solve the turnover rate of naval officers.

Only by solving the source of the problem can we be responsible for this mistake.

Only by playing the emotional card can you win back the heart of the naval officer.

"Warring States Marshal!"

Everyone in the conference room was moved and looked at Zhan Guo in shock.

They didn't expect that the Warring States would have the courage to make such a humble apology as a marshal.

Guaranteeing with the position of marshal, standing on the same front with the entire navy, this is their naval marshal!

If you think about it carefully, it’s not Zhan Guo’s fault. Didn’t all the bad things start with the Five Elder Stars?

All of a sudden, everyone was moved, and thinking of the many years of friendship they had accumulated in the navy, they felt much less resentful about the previous incident.

"Marshal Zhan Guo, we support you!"

Some dovish generals around Aokiji and hawkish generals led by Onigumo expressed their views together.

He looked at everyone's expressions and nodded secretly. Zhan Guo's way of handling the situation was almost the limit, and the effect was also quite outstanding.

"Okay, then I won't do anything fancy. I'll go find the Five Elders right now!"

Zhan Guo knew that no matter how good the words were, they would be useless without actual actions.

Before going to find the Five Elder Stars, he had to make one last preparation.

"Kizaru, immediately have the Marine Science Corps block all of Zephyr's Den Den Mushi bands at the Marine Headquarters!"

Zhan Guo said through gritted teeth.

He can't let Zefa shake the morale of the troops again, otherwise a large number of people will leave again.

"Copy that, Marshal of the Warring States Period."

Kizaru said seriously.

"The meeting is adjourned now, everyone go back to your own business."

After saying that, Zhan Guo left the meeting room and headed for the Red Earth Continent with heavy steps.

In the meeting room, everyone left one after another, obviously having something on their mind.

The flying squirrel quickly returned to the dormitory and packed his luggage.

He had a complicated expression. If it had been before Teacher Zefa made that phone call, he would have stayed because of Zhan Guo's words.

Now, it is impossible.

He took a lingering look at the Navy Headquarters and headed towards the people from Huoshao Mountain who had left not long ago.

"Tsk, my supporters went to Lowen?"

Aokiji thought depressedly.

Most of Zephyr's disciples are doves or pro-doves. That's right, even though Zephyr hated pirates to the core in the later period, he did not incite his disciples to join the radical faction on Akainu's side.

In other words, those people who left were all those who supported Aokiji to be the marshal.

Together with the abducted former admiral candidate Gion and Zephyr, Lowen actually poached one-third of the dovish navy's strength!

This means that the gap between the doves who support him as the admiral and the hawks who support Akainu as the admiral has narrowed. In addition, if there are too many people defecting to the enemy, it may cause a crisis of confidence in the World Government.

His position of marshal was getting further and further away from him.

Thinking of this, Aokiji felt the same as Sengoku.

Akainu was not in the meeting, but Spider-Man, who was from the hawkish faction and shared the same will as Akainu, was not happy about the weakening of the dovish faction and felt equally uncomfortable.

No matter what, doves are still the navy. One-third of the strength of doves is one-fifth of the total navy's strength. This loss is indeed heavy.

What’s even more terrifying is that these people did not die, but instead defected to the world government’s most terrifying enemy, Lowen!

As one side grows stronger, the other side declines. Lowen's power has expanded to become a super force that surpasses the Four Emperors, making it more difficult for the Navy to deal with him.

"Will the two of them run away too?"

Ghost Spider thought of Sengoku and Aokiji and felt a little worried.

If Sengoku and Aokiji both ran away, even if Admiral Akainu became the marshal, it would not be a happy thing.

"Why didn't Mr. Zefa call me?"

Kizaru looked sad on the surface, but he felt a little regretful in his heart.

It was obvious that he was also very dissatisfied with Whitebeard II joining the Seven Warlords of the Sea, and he was also secretly seeing Zephyr off.

Teacher Zefa called so many people but didn't call him. This is prejudice against him!

Although he is loyal to the navy, why don't you test his firm belief, Mr. Zefa?

If the salary is high enough and the benefits are good enough, he might just agree.

Could it be that Mr. Zefa, the man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, took kickbacks from the benefits that Loven gave him?

Kizaru thought secretly.

On this day, many generals of the Navy Headquarters were somewhat absent-minded.
