Chapter 757: The night before the execution, a show of strength!
On the eve of the public execution of the revolutionary army commander.
That night, the harbor of Marinford was brightly lit, and the kings who had come from all over the world to watch the ceremony had been settled in the military quarters of the headquarters one after another.
There were no luxuriously decorated rest rooms, nor were there any extravagant meals provided exclusively for the nobles; the standard of reception provided by the Navy Headquarters for the heads of states was not high at all.
It was thoughtful enough, but many nobles who were used to enjoying it still felt dissatisfied.
"Bang!!"
In the shabby dormitory, the king of the Qiaoqiao Kingdom slammed the table with anger on his face, glanced at the simply furnished room, and said angrily:
"What a joke!"
"Is this the room the Navy Headquarters uses to entertain VIPs?!"
"You've collected so much in bounty money, but you can't even prepare the most basic guest rooms!"
"Assholes, are these guys looking down on me?!"
"Go, tell them that I want to change rooms! Change rooms!!"
The king's furious voice could be heard from far away. This was originally a military barracks for soldiers, and some of the kings were placed here. King Qiao Qiao's noise immediately attracted other people's attention.
Even the king, who was in a high position, could not change his nature of loving to watch the fun. When he heard someone was making trouble, he would rush over with his entourage.
King Qiao Qiao was definitely not the only king who was dissatisfied with the navy's arrangements. However, most of the kings did not express their dissatisfaction directly in order to demonstrate their self-restraint and magnanimity.
But now that someone has come forward, these people naturally gathered around with the intention of watching the show. However, the king actually has some ulterior motives for the current navy.
Although what the Navy Headquarters under the leadership of Yoriichi Tsugakuni has done in recent times is in line with the interests of the member states of the World Government, this does not mean that the royal families of these member states can treat the Navy the same way they treat the Celestial Dragons and allow the Navy Headquarters to touch the internal affairs of their own countries.
Although the navy's actions have been restrained during this period, the navy is actually rapidly expanding its own strength. Not only is the size of the branch expanding, the navy is also conducting large-scale conscription locally and frantically expanding the strength of grassroots sergeants.
Not only that, some relatively peaceful naval branches such as the East China Sea even began to build naval schools, not only to carry out literacy work for the soldiers of the branch, but also to a certain extent to take in and provide assistance to some homeless orphans.
Although these actions are internal affairs of the navy, in fact, some smart leaders have already noticed the huge changes in the navy, and some policies that the navy is promoting in certain branches are actually subtly influencing the governance of their countries.
Taking in and supporting orphans will cause some people in some countries to lose a big piece of the pie.
Although the work of expanding the army and raising literacy is aimed at dealing with pirates, the world situation today is no longer the same as it was when Pirate King Roger just died.
The Great Pirate Era had developed to this stage, but in fact it had already ended with the demise of those legendary pirates.
It's just that the world has not yet recognized its end, and people still call this era the "Age of Discovery."
However, some powerful countries have clearly sensed that the world situation has undergone tremendous changes. In fact, some rulers in the East China Sea have not suffered any "proper" attacks from pirates for a long time.
Against the backdrop of such an era, the navy's expansion has not slowed down at all, but has accelerated, which has made many people smell something wrong.
And, more importantly,
The leaders of the member countries of the World Government have not received any instructions from "God" for a long time.
The Celestial Dragons seemed to have completely disappeared from the lives of the rulers. In the past, they had always been able to receive some news about the Celestial Dragons.
Similar to, but not limited to, a certain celestial dragon buying a certain number of slaves that suit his needs in Shampoo; or a certain celestial dragon visiting a certain country as a tourist, etc.
Sometimes, even some families in need of "Heavenly Gold" would receive phone calls from the Celestial Dragons, who would teach the kings "hand in hand" how to collect Heavenly Gold from those at the bottom of society.
But it was strange that those celestial dragons who originally had an extremely strong presence seemed to have disappeared overnight without a trace.
Now that I think about it carefully, the time when the Celestial Dragons completely lost contact and the time when Yoriichi Tsugumi entered the navy almost overlap.
Although some things are just speculations, there are actually quite a few country leaders who want to take advantage of this World Conference to test the Navy Headquarters.
If possible, they even hope to contact the Celestial Dragons in the Holy Land, hoping to receive the most direct "teachings" from them.
More and more people gathered in front of King Qiao Qiao's dormitory. Some perceptive naval guards did not choose to step forward to appease them at this time, but quickly notified their superiors and asked someone who was capable of solving the matter to come forward.
These soldiers who acted as guards would not have a good ending if they encountered these unruly nobles.
During the time when King Qiao Qiao was angry, the chief officer received the report from his subordinates and hurried over.
Even at night, Brannew was always dressed in a neat suit, and he rushed to the scene as soon as he received the news.
The highest-ranking officer in charge of the reception this time was Brannew. In terms of strength, Brannew was not ranked high in the Navy Headquarters, but his emotional intelligence and ability to handle affairs were unmatched by many veteran vice admirals.
If people like Huoshaoshan or Ghost Spider were asked to do things like reception in the future, they would definitely not be able to do it well.
Ji Guoyuanyi also recognized Brannew's ability. Even for such a major event, he still entrusted the task to Brannew, a "mere major general."
"Hello, Your Majesty, I am Vice Admiral Brannew of the Navy Headquarters. I will arrange your food, clothing, housing and transportation after you enter Marinford."
"Excuse me, is there anything I can help you with?"
Brannew had clearly received some news before coming here, but at the moment of speaking, he seemed to know nothing. He bowed slightly to King Qiao Qiao and asked softly.
This deliberate low profile also made King Qiao Qiao's brows relax. His temper, which had been restrained due to the arrival of the major general, broke out again:
"Are you the guy who arranged our accommodation?!"
"Hey, take a look at yourself. Is this simple pigsty suitable for people to sleep in?"
"Is this room even 6 square meters?! There's not even a private bathroom. Are you planning to make me use the public toilet?!"
"Which of our member countries of the World Government is missing your military spending?"
"Your navy has been established for hundreds of years, so it's not an exaggeration to say that it's a large and powerful navy, right?"
"I just don't believe there's not a decent dormitory in the whole of Marinford!"
"I don't believe that these generals in your navy are really so simple, and their food and accommodation are the same as those of ordinary grassroots navy officers!!"
Although King Qiaoqiao's temper is not very good, and Chen Fu's temper is not deep, but he is not a complete fool. He also understands that when it comes to things like losing temper, there must be a "reasonable" breaking point.
It is true that he disliked the accommodation arranged for him by the Navy, but this was not the trigger for his temper.
There is a fundamental difference between not having luxurious residence and having luxurious residence but not arranging it for these kings.
Brannew could naturally hear the other party's implicit meaning and the hidden message in his words. Sure enough, after King Qiao Qiao said this, the expressions of the other kings who were watching the fun also changed slightly.
Some people who were looking for trouble also agreed and said sarcastically: "Marinford is so big, don't they even have rooms to entertain guests?!"
"If that's really the case, then I really have to ask where your navy's military funds are spent." "Could it be that all the money has been eaten away by termites?!"
It is absolutely impossible for any large system to completely eliminate corruption. Even the Navy Headquarters, with Yoriichi Tsugakuni in charge, has no way to completely eliminate such things.
Sengoku and Tsugumi Yuichiro have never been soft-hearted or soft-hearted when it comes to such matters, but even so, it is impossible to prevent them.
Branny noticed the other party's teasing at this moment, but he didn't seem angry. Instead, he explained openly:
"I am truly sorry, but due to limited conditions, this is the only accommodation the Navy Headquarters can arrange for you."
"We have seen and remembered the support of the leaders of the member states for our navy. What we can do to repay you is for our navy to go all out to create a harmonious and peaceful maritime environment for each member state."
"Our navy has been working diligently over the years and has eliminated countless pirates. The maritime environment in the four seas has improved greatly. I think you have noticed it."
"Even the reason we invited you to come to Marinford this time is because we have captured the commander of the Revolutionary Army and we are inviting you to watch the execution."
"This is proof that our navy is working hard to repay you."
"only"
Brannew changed the subject and continued, "Since General Tsugikoku Yuanyi took office as Chief of Staff, our navy's pace of clearing out pirates has also accelerated."
"But to be honest, a faster pace means our navy will have to pay a greater price."
"Military expenditures are not only needed to support the lives of ordinary soldiers, but also to provide for the soldiers who died or were injured on the battlefield."
"Only in this way can our navy maintain its combat effectiveness."
"To be honest, the officers of this headquarters really don't have any luxurious life to enjoy."
“It is true that the general officers’ quarters are not in this area, but that is because their quarters are connected to their offices.”
"In order to complete the various tasks assigned by General Staff General Yuichi Tsugikoku, the generals are almost tied to their jobs and wish they could spend all their time handling official business."
"All the kings live in single rooms, which is already a good treatment."
Branny spoke with confidence, and he had a mature set of countermeasures in the face of King Qiao Qiao's attack. His words made the surrounding kings look at each other in bewilderment and whisper to each other in private.
Seeing Brannew's confident look, King Qiao Qiao also lost his momentum. He opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say for a moment.
This man acted as if he was determined to work hard until his death. Even King Qiao Qiao would be at a loss for words.
"Of course, I can understand your suffering, Your Highness."
"Don't worry, I'll have someone bring you a spittoon later. For someone like you, it's better to keep things like going to the toilet private."
As he spoke, Brannew straightened his body and saluted, not giving anyone a chance to interrupt: "If there is nothing else, I will take my leave first."
"If you need anything, just tell me."
After saying that, Brannew turned and left, leaving the kings staring at each other in amazement.
Although Brannew's attitude was impeccable and his words were humble and submissive, after all he said, King Qiao Qiao's request was not met at all, right?
It sounds nice to say, "Just give me your orders," but it's no use giving orders, right?
It was not until a few minutes after Brannew left that King Qiaoqiao finally realized what was happening.
"How dare you play tricks on me?!"
He finally understood Branny's perfunctory attitude and was about to continue to attack, but he saw Elizabeth II approaching him, hugged his shoulders, and comforted him:
"Okay, stop losing your temper."
"Haven't you figured it out yet? This is the navy's way of showing us their power. No matter how angry you get, the other side will probably just give you a perfunctory response."
"I'm afraid that this visit to the Navy Headquarters is not just for viewing the ceremony!"
"That guy, Tsugikoku Yoshiichi, might have some plans for us!"
Elizabeth II is the king of the Kingdom of Prodians and is known as the War King. Legend has it that his King's Fist can even defeat the Four Emperors.
The persuasion of such a powerful kingdom naturally had an effect on King Qiao Qiao, and his words also made the surrounding rulers who were watching the fun lower their heads in thought.
After listening to Elizabeth II's words, everyone felt a sense of conspiracy. Without staying here for long, these kings quickly left with their own thoughts.
Suddenly, footsteps were heard in the dim prison corridor.
After a while, the figure of Tsugumi Yoshiichi appeared in front of the cells of Crow and Mori.
Ji Guoyuan glanced around, took a look at the decadent appearance of the two men, knocked lightly on the prison door, and said:
"What the Revolutionary Army wants to do is truly great."
"It's just that the leader you follow is unable to achieve the goals of the Revolutionary Army."
"Rather than being executed like this."
"Would you two like to follow me and do something?"
"I think I can do better than Long."
"After all, I have helped your revolutionary army completely eliminate the most troublesome enemy - the Celestial Dragons."
"The rest of the things should go smoothly."
There was a lot of information contained in Tsugarukuni Yoshiichi's words. Crow and Mori, who had already lost hope in life and were ready to accept their fate, suddenly raised their heads and looked at Tsugarukuni Yoshiichi after hearing his words.
Surprise, excitement, all kinds of emotions rose in their hearts and were transmitted to Yoshiichi Tsugumi through their eyes.
"Humph"
Seeing the gazes of the two people, Ji Guoyuan curled the corners of his mouth and smiled.
