One Piece: Trying 200 times harder, but being too overbearing.

The pirates below cheered excitedly.

Upstairs, in the banquet hall for officials.

Kaido sat in the main seat, his eyes filled with anger.

This expedition saw the Beasts Pirates plunder countless resources and islands, which should have been a joyous occasion.

However, upon returning to Onigashima and not seeing his son Yamato, Kaido's good mood vanished.

"You all know about Yamato's escape from Onigashima, right?"

"know."

Inside the banquet hall, apart from Quinn who was singing and dancing outside, all the other core members were present, and they all grinned from ear to ear.

"On such a joyous day, my son ran away from home. How strange!"

As Kaido was speaking, he suddenly burst into tears, tears streaming down his face. However, as he cried, his sorrow turned into anger.

"It's all because of that black-haired brat!"

Kaido threw Loya's photo on the ground and looked at the Flying Six, saying, "After the Fire Festival, you guys go and find Yamato for me. Finding Yamato anywhere is fine."

"understood."

Who's Who grinned: "Lord Kaido, what are the benefits if we bring Yamato back?"

"How about we grant you the right to challenge the big boss?"

"Alright! I'll go find Master Yamato!"

The previously nonchalant Flying Six immediately perked up; they had their eyes on the big signboard for a long time!

"Hey, the black-haired guy is a Marine, shouldn't he be at Marine Headquarters?"

"According to intelligence, the black-haired man is a major general in the G-1 branch."

"Then let's wait for him to come out!"

No matter how arrogant they were, the Flying Six wouldn't dare to cause trouble at the G-1 branch, which was one of the two most heavily guarded fortresses in the world.

Even Kaido, the leader, couldn't force his way into those two fortresses.

We can only deal with him after the black-haired guy leaves!

Kaido looked at King and Jack beside him and said in a deep voice, "If you find out where that black-haired brat is, you can also make your move."

"understand!"

Chapter 172 You are the Base Commander!

The first year of the Haiyuan calendar, 1518.

Navy, G-5 Branch.

"Boss Loya, you're finally back!"

Barto clung to Loya's leg, tears streaming down his face. They had been so bored at the base for the past two months.

"leave me alone."

Loya pushed Barto away with disdain.

He hadn't been back for two months, and the G-5 branch was as dilapidated as ever, but unlike before, he was now a major general in the G-5 branch.

Base Chief's Office.

Maynard shouldered his fishing gear bag and waved goodbye to Loya.

"This office is yours."

"Lieutenant General, where are you going?"

Loya was surprised.

"Fishing!"

Maynard patted his fishing gear bag.

After returning from Matsuba Island, he realized that instead of wasting time on the marines in the G-5 branch, he should focus his energy on his hobbies.

At least it will make me feel better.

Now all that's missing is someone to take his place. Once Loya becomes a lieutenant general, he can naturally resign from his position as base commander and return to headquarters to start afresh.

before this.

Yes, have a happy day!

"You can make your own decisions if you need to. You don't need to ask me. By the way, my base commander's official seal is in the drawer. Feel free to use it."

"Wait, Lieutenant General Maynard!"

Loya quickly tried to persuade him to stay, saying that Maynard was a lieutenant general in the headquarters and quite capable, and he wanted Maynard to help share the workload.

"Lieutenant General, you're the base commander!"

"No, I am not."

Maynard gripped the doorknob and turned to give Loya a deep look.

"You're the base commander!"

"boom!"

The door is closed.

"Clap clap clap!"

Lu Yun clapped her hands with a grin.

"Senior, congratulations on becoming the base commander."

"."

Loya was both amused and exasperated.

Okay, it's just a matter of time anyway.

Loya sat down in the base commander's seat, put his legs up on the desk, and savored the joy of being the base commander.

"Lu Yun, make me a cup of coffee."

"Okay, senior."

Soon, coffee and a newspaper were placed in front of me.

Loya took a sip of coffee, still feeling a bit unwell. He looked at the girl with glasses with a scrutinizing gaze and finally found the problem.

My secretary's outfit isn't very appealing.

Luo Ya picked up a pen and scribbled on the white paper for a while before handing it to his adjutant, saying earnestly, "Lu Yun, your uniform from now on will be based on this."

"Ah, senior, this..."

Lu Yun blushed as she looked at the white shirt paired with a short skirt and black stockings on the paper. Was her senior finally going to make a move on her?

The girl with glasses clenched her small fists, seemingly already prepared to dedicate herself to scientific research. After all, since her senior allowed her to examine her body, she should reciprocate in kind.

"Senior, I will do my best!"

"Ah."

Loya immediately felt much better. As the company's boss, how could he not have a beautiful secretary who looked good in clothes?

This is probably what a sense of ritual is.

"By the way, inform Smoker and the others, as well as the commanders of each squadron, to assemble in the conference room in half an hour."

"clear."

The new official took office three fires.

He is now the acting base commander of G-5. Although he doesn't plan to set any rules, he at least needs to clarify the division of responsibilities.

With the personnel structure of the G-series fortresses, a maximum of ten combat units can be established, with a total force of 10,000.

Currently, the G-5 branch only has two thousand members, making it the smallest branch in the G system, and there is still a lot of room for expansion.

We need to expand our military strength.

Half an hour later, in the conference room.

The six corps commanders and Smoker and his team sat on either side of the desk, the atmosphere between them somewhat confrontational.

The complete integration of Squadron 11 into Branch G-5 means that the original rights and interests of the squadron commanders may be partially divided or even replaced.

The main reason they were willing to follow Loya was that Loya's interests did not conflict with theirs, since Loya had succeeded the base chief.

But Smoker and his friends were different.

They were unwilling to give up their troops.

"Oh, everyone's here."
