This Uchiha is really evil!

At this moment, an emergency meeting is being held, and the person chairing the meeting is...

Admiral of the Navy, Buddha's Warring States!

Under him were the three admirals of the navy...

Kizaru, Borsalino!

Akainu, Sakaski!

Aokiji, Kuzan!

Of course, it also includes those important vice admirals of the Navy Headquarters and other staff officers.

Among them are two lieutenant generals, whose status is very special.

The first one, of course, is the legendary veteran, the hero Garp who destroyed the pirate group of the Sea Emperor Rocks in the Valley of Gods!

The other one is Lieutenant General Tsuru, known as the Chief of Staff.

These two were old partners and companions who had fought side by side with Buddha's Warring States, and they possessed extremely high prestige and status.

Marshal Zhan Guo looked at the report, frowned, and his expression became increasingly gloomy.

"Everyone, the events of Alabasta have now spread throughout the world. I'm sure you all know about it..."

"What do you think?"

Aokiji Kuzan crossed his legs and shrugged lazily.

"In short, the Shichibukai system is now a complete failure..."

"Our navy has also been embarrassed..."

Kizaru Borsalino didn't take it seriously.

"Is that so?"

"I don't think so..."

"Just because one Shichibukai committed a crime doesn't mean the entire Shichibukai system is flawed."

"What's more, these people are already big pirates. Didn't we really anticipate that there might be trouble when we established the Seven Warlords system?"

Chief of Staff Crane nodded.

"What Admiral Kizaru said makes sense."

"The establishment of the Shichibukai system was originally a countermeasure to the sudden Great Pirate Era, which left the Navy and the World Government overwhelmed and unable to cope. "

"Use the big pirates to suppress the other small pirates and prevent the entire era from going completely out of control."

"From a broader strategic perspective, I believe the Shichibukai system has played its role."

Marshal Zhan Guo nodded.

"Having said that, the exposure of Crocodile's conspiracy will undoubtedly cause people around the world to doubt the system of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, and in turn, they will also be dissatisfied with our navy and the World Government..."

Akainu Sakaski said coldly: "No."

"Oh? Admiral Akainu, what do you mean?"

Akainu Sakaski said solemnly: "The one who killed Crocodile, thwarted his plot, and saved the entire Alabasta, isn't that also a marine?!"

"The public will not be disappointed with such heroes."

"In fact, it is precisely these naval heroes who uphold true justice that are most loved and welcomed by the people!"

Marshal Zhan Guo's heart moved.

"Is that Major General Uchiha Chiba who suddenly appeared and wiped out the entire East China Sea?"

"Sakaski, I heard that you've been keeping an eye on him. It was you who made an exception and promoted him to the rank of Major General, right?"

Akainu Sakaski said calmly: "Not bad."

"He has made outstanding military achievements. This promotion is just a small reward for him."

Marshal Zhan Guo nodded.

"In terms of military achievements, he is truly brilliant and will go down in history!"

"However, within the Navy and the World Government, many people criticized him for being too extreme and ruthless. He often completely wiped out the enemy without leaving a single one alive, which made the world fear the Navy..."

Akainu Sakaski sneered: "How can we not be extreme and ruthless in dealing with pirates and villains? Why not cut off the roots?!"

"If it weren't for Uchiha Chiba, how could the East China Sea have the peace and stability it has today? Alabasta would have long been reduced to a war-torn ruin!"

"Doesn't all this just prove that his methods are correct?!"

Aokiji Kuzan shook his head.

"You can't say that, Sakaski."

"Indeed, that man named Uchiha Chiba has made considerable contributions, but that doesn't prove that other methods are wrong. While eager for quick success and instant benefits may yield quick results, they can also cause endless trouble..."

Akainu Sakaski gave him a cold look.

"Endless troubles? What do you mean by troubles?"

Aokiji Kuzan did not back down and continued speaking with a lazy and indifferent expression.

"Killing all the current pirates won't prevent the birth of new ones."

"The fire sown by Pirate King Roger is still burning brightly around the world."

"If the public develops an impression of the navy as extreme, cruel, bloodthirsty, and cold-blooded, it's inevitable they will lean towards the other side."

"I'm not against Uchiha Chiba's approach, but I'm saying that when it comes to enforcing justice, a certain degree of restraint is still necessary..."

Akainu Sakaski sneered, "Ridiculous!"

"Could it be that when pirates and those evildoers strike, they control the speed you so-called?!"

Aokiji Kuzan said calmly: "But we are the navy, not pirates."

"That's why we should be tougher than pirates! Otherwise, how can we enforce justice?!"

Seeing the two quarreling again, Marshal Zhan Guo couldn't help but sigh.

"Okay, you two, stop arguing."

"Even though we're all on the same side, the Navy allows everyone to have a different understanding of justice."

"This is the inclusive side of the Navy, and it is one of the key reasons why the Navy can still maintain its vitality and even grow stronger."

"Sakaski, Kuzan, and of course Borsalino, the ideals you all uphold may differ, but they are all for your own justice, and that is enough."

Akainu Sakaski snorted.

Aokiji Kuzan spread his hands lazily.

Kizaru Borsalino was picking his ears nonchalantly.

At this time, Vice Admiral Garp, who was eating an apple in big mouthfuls, burst into laughter.

"Being able to quarrel is actually a good thing!"

"It means everyone is still energetic!"

Marshal Zhan Guo glanced at him and frowned: "Garp, what do you think?"

Vice Admiral Garp said without raising his head, still biting his apple.

"I don't have any opinion."

"As long as that Uchiha Chiba is still a marine and is still enforcing the navy's justice, I don't think there is any reason to stop him. In fact, we should support him and let him carry out his duties."

Marshal Zhan Guo nodded and said, "Come to think of it, the East China Sea is your hometown, right?"

"Yeah, but I haven't been back for many years..."

"Luffy was taught a bad lesson by that bastard Red-Haired Shanks. He kept clamoring to become a pirate. I beat him up and scolded him, but it didn't work. He ran back in a rage..."

"Ah, I guess I can't tell you this?"

"Hahahahaha, just pretend you didn't hear it!"

Everyone: "..."

Vice Admiral Garp said unconcernedly, "Anyway, it's definitely a good thing for me if Uchiha Chiba can clean up the East China Sea. Maybe it can also make that little bastard Luffy see what the consequences of being a pirate are!"

"I hope he'll be too scared to go out to sea, hahahahaha!"

Marshal Zhan Guo: "...You really haven't changed at all..."

Chief of Staff He brought the topic back to the topic.

"So, Sengoku, what are you going to do about the incident in Alabasta?"

Marshal Zhan Guo thought silently for a moment, then stood up.

"The Alabasta incident cannot be covered up."

"So, instead of covering up the crimes of the Shichibukai, it's better to publicize the navy's capabilities and decisiveness!"

"Pass the order and spread the merits and reputation of Uchiha Chiba, the naval hero who saved Alabasta, to the whole world!"

"Also, promote his rank to Vice Admiral of the Marine Headquarters!"

Although everyone was shocked, such a terrifying promotion speed was truly unprecedented!

Not to mention that Uchiha Chiba is only eighteen years old, what's even more terrifying is that it has only been about half a year since he joined the navy!

In just over half a year, he was promoted to vice admiral of the Navy Headquarters!

What is this concept? !

Unprecedented.

You know, the rank of Vice Admiral of the Naval Headquarters is almost the ultimate goal that all navy officers dream of!

Going further up, there are three generals!

It's really a one-to-one situation. Unless one of the three generals retires first, there will be no replacement or promotion!

The same thought arose in everyone's mind.

A new era is about to begin...
