One Piece: Kaido the Beast Playing House.

Chapter 357 Navy Meeting (Part )
"Where did this child come from?"

In the Admiral's office, Sakaski crossed his arms, looked gloomily at the child in Ekaterina's arms, and his voice was so low that water seemed to drip out.

"Can you please stop focusing on your work every day, brother? You have been in a low mood since you came back from the last mission. It's scary, okay? Look at you, you even scared little Ace."

Ekaterina glared at Sakaski, which made Sakaski even more angry. He was on a mission and had not been home for a month for his plan. How come when he saw his sister, she was holding a baby! Although his reason told him that Ekaterina could not be pregnant in such a short time, he could not help but start to think wildly. In just a short while, he had already thought of hundreds of ideas to kill the father of the child. Don't doubt it, this is the power of a sister control!

"Hahahahaha, I'm back! Thank you for your help, Xiao Ye, hahahahaha!"

Just as Ekaterina was about to answer, Garp pushed the door open and walked in. He took Ace from Ekaterina with a big laugh and began to tease her.

"It's okay, Vice Admiral Garp, little Ace is still very well behaved."

Ekaterina smiled and said, and Sakaski was relieved immediately. He had heard before that Garp adopted a child as a grandson. No one commented on this matter. After all, everyone knew what happened to Dorag in the past, and it was normal to adopt a child to pass on the legacy. What's more, Garp's statement to the public was that he went to visit a friend from his youth, but the old friend had died, leaving only this posthumous child. It happened that the child's mother died of dystocia during childbirth, and out of friendship, he could not send such a young child to an orphanage, so he just adopted the child.

There are only two attitudes towards this matter. One is that this is a bit too coincidental. The other is that you said that the father of this child is your old friend, and you recognize your old friend's son as your adopted grandson. My goodness, your old friend is really pitiful. He was directly demoted to the same generation as your son, right?
Garp's explanation for this matter was also very reasonable. He had no choice but to let the child be his adopted grandson. After all, he was already this age. There was no guarantee that Dragon might bring him a biological grandson someday. It would not be appropriate for him to adopt another adopted son. Anyway, his old friend was a free and easy guy when he was alive, and he would definitely not care about this matter. At most, he would apologize to him when he died and went down to find him.

What else can others say about Karp's attitude? You are right. Your friend has committed a sin. I don't know who is so lucky to have an old friend like you. It's really unlucky. He can't rest in peace after death. He has been demoted to a lower generation for no reason.

However, Ace was still highly praised by the top navy officials. Sengoku, Tsuru and Zephyr all said that Garp was extremely lucky to have encountered such a good thing.

Back to the story, when Cap heard Ekaterina praising Ace, he burst into laughter.

"Hahahahaha, that's right! Xiaoye, you have good taste. This kid is indeed much more obedient than that brat Dorag back then. You don't know that brat Dorag..."

"Cough cough!"

Just as Garp was about to continue speaking, Kong walked in from the door, coughed twice, looked at Garp and said:

"Karp, don't forget what we agreed on."

"Yes, yes, I get it. Don't keep talking about Dorag when you're outside. I get it. Really, didn't I forget about it for a moment?"

Garp stared at Marshal Kong with dead fish eyes. Actually, he had no dissatisfaction with this. After all, according to the order of the World Government, it was not as simple as not being allowed to mention it. There was a gag order, and even he, the biological father, could only pretend that he had no such son. However, Marshal Kong still allowed him to talk about it in private, which was already a favor outside the law.

"It's good that you know. Everyone, take a seat. Let's have a meeting. By the way, Garp, don't bring your child to the meeting next time. Although Ace is a very cute child, you don't have to bring him everywhere you go."

Sora nodded in satisfaction at Garp's words, then walked around a few people, went behind the marshal's desk, and sat down. Following Sora in were Sengoku, Zephyr, Tsuru, Borsalino, and Kuzan.

"So, what's going on, Marshal Sora?"

Garp held Ace in one hand and picked his nose with the other hand and asked, while the others instantly fell silent and looked at Sora. "It's not a big deal, but it's not a small deal either. The Five Elders contacted me a while ago and hoped that I would be promoted to the commander-in-chief of the three armies and let Sengoku take over as the marshal."

Sora said calmly.

"Are you kidding me? What's wrong with these guys' brains? Doing this at a time like this? Have they considered the growth of these three people's strength? They are not strong enough to become generals. If they are forced to be promoted, it will affect the future of these three people!"

Garp was the first to stand up and oppose. As I said, Garp's stupidity was only on the surface. Anyone who really thought Garp was a fool was truly stupid. So he immediately saw that the Five Elders' plan was unreliable. Yes, it was no problem for Sengoku to be a marshal now, but what about the choice of admiral?

Sakaski, Borsalino and Kuzan are indeed the three people that the navy is mainly training now. They are destined to take over the position of admiral in the future, but that is the future. Garp knows how busy admirals are. Although it seems that they have nothing to do just drinking tea and reading newspapers all day, being an admiral is extremely energy-consuming. It is a huge burden on the growth of a person's strength. Generally, people who serve as admirals have reached a bottleneck and their strength cannot grow rapidly. They can only rely on accumulation over time. At this time, it is most appropriate to be an admiral, and these three people have obviously not reached this point yet.

"Yes, I agree with Garp. The current situation is already troublesome. If Sakaski and the others become admirals, at least two people will have to stay behind. The manpower to go out and fight pirates will be even less. They are not unaware of the current situation on the sea. We have completely lost our position in the New World. If we reduce the manpower at this time, it is very likely that the Four Seas and the first half of the Grand Line will become unstable."

Zhan Guo also stood up and spoke. No one present refuted what he said about the New World. Although the Navy had never officially admitted to losing power in the New World, this was already a matter that everyone with a discerning eye knew. The two military bases that were originally intended to be the center of gravity had now become two isolated islands. If it weren't for the sake of saving face and showing that the Navy had not completely given up on the New World, the Navy would probably abandon these two islands. After all, it was too difficult to send supplies to these two places. You couldn't not send them because these two islands were not self-sufficient at all, and the neighboring countries completely ignored them. These navy couldn't buy things on the black market, could they?

"Please be patient, everyone. I didn't agree to them, so you don't have to be too anxious."

Kong looked at the excited crowd, nodded, and decided to step forward to appease them.

"Why didn't you say so earlier? I won't let you play tricks on me like this, old man Kong!"

Feeling that he had been fooled, Karp started to curse without thinking.

"Shut up Garp!"

Zephyr knew that Garp was a big mouth and dared to say anything, so he immediately jumped up and covered Garp's big mouth, while Crane took Ace away from Garp's hands. The two old guys were fighting, so they had to make sure they didn't hurt the child.

"That's enough, you guys are grown-ups, what are you doing?"

Kong looked at the three people who were in a mess. Oh, by the way, Garp also dragged Sengoku in. Now it was a three-way fight, and at this time the three people didn't listen to what Kong said at all, and just kept fighting among themselves.

"Asshole! Quiet down!!!"

Kong looked at the three people who had knocked down the paintings on his wall, and suddenly became furious. He shouted loudly, which could be heard throughout the entire Marine Headquarters building.
