One Piece: Kaido the Beast Playing House.

Chapter 358: Navy Meeting (Part )
"Look at yourselves! Who of you doesn't have gray hair? Who of you isn't a pillar of the navy? The navy's cause has been handed over to me, and I feel deeply distressed when I see you! I have sinned against the navy, I am ashamed of the world, and I am ashamed of the martyrs! I wish I could dismiss myself right now!

And you guys, don't think I don't know what you're thinking. When these three people were making a fuss, were you so obedient? Have you ever thought about pulling them apart? No! No, don't think I don't know that you want to make more trouble than them! Don't think I didn't see it! Sakaski, your magma is dripping on the ground! And Kuzan! Don't think I don't know you're sleeping just because you open your eyes! Borsalino! Don't drink tea in the office! We're in a meeting now! Ekaterina! You... You're a good kid, keep it up, don't learn from them, understand?
When I was promoted to Admiral of the Navy, you were all full of vigor and vitality. Although there were occasional accidents, you all worked together and worked hard. But now! What kind of people are you? If outsiders knew about this, they would laugh at us! Stand here and look! Look at the plaque above your heads! Remember these words in your heart! "

Kong said this, pointing to the plaque with the word "Justice" written on it above his head. He ignored everyone and pushed the door open, leaving the room full of people in silence.

"Huh, old man Kong is finally gone."

Less than five seconds after Sora was gone, Garp laid back on the sofa, looking nonchalant.

"Yeah, he doesn't seem that angry. He's pretending to be so serious."

Zefa was the second one to lie on the sofa and started complaining as well. He didn't listen to what Sora said at all, or rather, he listened with his left ear and let it go with his right ear.

"Hey, you all know that Marshal Kong has this kind of personality. After so many years, you still haven't gotten used to it? Anyway, I've gotten used to it a long time ago."

Zhan Guo also changed his usual seriousness and lay lazily on the single sofa on the other side. He yawned and squinted his eyes as if he was about to fall asleep.

"You guys, just piss off Marshal Kong, especially you, Sengoku. What if Marshal Kong really gets hurt someday? If you become a marshal, aren't you afraid that they will piss you off? Don't forget, to Marshal Kong, we are all juniors and we dare not act too presumptuous. If you become a marshal, I can't even imagine how that old man Garp will mess with you."

He held Ace in his arms and sat on the rocking chair on the other side and said, "It must be said that Ace's sleep quality is really good. Despite the loud noise just now, the child was not woken up. He is still sleeping with bubbles in his nose, sounding very sweet, and one of his little hands is constantly scratching something in the air."

"General Sengoku, Vice Admiral Garp, Teacher Zephyr, Chief of Staff Tsuru, what are you doing?"

The four elders were chatting there, while the four younger ones beside them were confused. What was going on? They were clearly listening to the instructions just now, but how come they suddenly relaxed? Not to mention the always serious Sakaski, even the always unruly Borsalino was a little dumbfounded. After all, Vice Admiral Garp's situation was normal, and it was also normal for the character of Admiral Sengoku to collapse when he was with Vice Admiral Garp, but why did Mr. Zephyr become like this?

And Vice Admiral He, although your words do sound like good advice, why do they sound so strange? It's as if you are sure that they can make Marshal Kong angry? And how did you hear that Marshal Kong was not angry? We feel that Marshal Kong is about to explode, okay?
But the three grown men looked at each other, and no one was too embarrassed to ask. In the end, Ekaterina used her expertise to successfully figure out what the man was thinking and took the lead in asking questions.

"Oh, Xiao Ye, it's okay, don't worry. Old Man Kong is not angry. Let me teach you a lesson. When the old man is angry, he never says a lot. He will just take action. As long as the old man is willing to talk, it means he is not angry at all. The more he talks, the more it means that he is fine. So don't worry, it's okay. Who knows, the old man may have gone somewhere to drink."

Garp waved his hand nonchalantly. As an expert at making Marshal Kong angry, Garp knew too well when Marshal Kong was really angry, so he was not afraid at all.

"What Garp said is right. Don't worry. Marshal Kong is just venting his anger. Even if he is really angry, he is not going to attack us, but those five old guys. But has the position of Commander-in-Chief of the Three Armies existed before? Does anyone know about it?" Zefa said, looking at his old friends and asked. It was the first time he heard of the term Commander-in-Chief of the Three Armies. Besides the navy, who are the other two armies? Why have they never heard of it?
"I do know a little about this. The so-called three armed forces seem to refer to the Navy, CP and Strategic Science Force. However, having said that, in essence, it is not a real position. It is more like an honorary title. You all know that it is a nice-sounding title. In fact, if he really becomes the commander-in-chief of the three armed forces, Marshal Kong will be put on a pedestal. In that case, what can Marshal Kong command? The CP department has its own leader, the Navy has its own marshal, and the Strategic Science Force does not accept the command of outsiders. It is just a position with a nice-sounding name. Of course, there is no guarantee that the Five Elders are really going to make this position a real position, but at least it is impossible now."

After all, Sengoku is the only admiral in office now, and the only candidate for the next Navy Marshal. Naturally, he knows a lot more than Zephyr who has retreated to the second line, and Garp and Tsuru who are only vice admirals.

"That's right. Unless those people in the New World are restless and start to expand outward directly or launch a collective attack, otherwise, this commander-in-chief of the three armies is just a figurehead."

As the chief of staff, He naturally had a good grasp of the situation. She knew the danger of this position. On the surface, she seemed to be in a high position, but in reality? Not only did she have no real power, but she also had to stay away from the navy, which was her base. Because as the commander-in-chief of the three armed forces, he needed to treat everyone equally. Otherwise, someone would use his background in the navy and his partiality to the navy as an excuse to discredit Marshal Kong and even implicate the navy. This was a naked conspiracy.

"These old foxes have never said anything good. Forget it. Old Man Kong has already pushed it off. There's nothing else to do. Let's go. Do you want to go eat together?"

Garp said after he stood up and stretched.

"It's not as simple as you think, Garp. In fact, this matter has already been decided. In fact, the Five Elders did not really want Marshal Kong to take office now. They just expressed a meaning, that is, Marshal Kong's current reputation is relatively high, and he should prepare to abdicate."

Sengoku said, maybe some people are curious, the current navy, the New World can't intervene, the Four Seas and the Grand Line can't catch pirates, why is the reputation so high? This is a propaganda problem. In the propaganda of the World Government, the New World is not occupied by the Four Emperors, but the Four Emperors are blocked in the New World by the World Government and the Navy. If it weren't for the great World Government and the Navy, then this group of vicious pirates would run out and destroy everyone!
As for catching pirates everywhere, what they always publicize is how many pirates they have killed, rather than how many pirates appeared. They killed some of them, giving people the impression that they caught one by one as soon as they appeared, and then those people who stayed in their own little corner all day believed it. Naturally, the reputation of the navy became higher, and Kong, as the admiral of the navy, naturally became a great hero, and his popularity soared.

The World Government naturally cannot sit idly by. They need the navy as a tool, but they have also been guarding against the navy becoming too powerful. After all, as the only violent organization in the open, their slogan is justice. It is easy for them to develop disgust towards the World Government, a makeshift team that has fundamental problems, and go their own way.

"I know, I know, I'm not stupid, but this is not something we can decide. You three have heard it, so you have to work hard and don't make things difficult for Old Man Kong. Do you understand?"

Garp waved his hand, then turned and shouted to the three future navy members.

"Yes! Understood! Everything is for justice! (Dog) (~~~ Monkey) (Chicken)"
