From the Navy Admiral to the Gotei 13

Chief of Staff Ahe's expression eased a little and he said, "Fortunately, Diarmait has some quick wit, but things have come to this point. Everyone, prepare to face a new wave. Roger's last words will not be easily erased by Diarmait." "Justice will prevail." Gion suddenly said.

Sakaski nodded and said, "Diarmuid has already given all the necessary warnings. If there are still people who don't listen, then there is no need to show mercy. Kill them if you see them!" Chief of Staff Ahe sighed. No matter what, they should go back to the headquarters first.

She stood up and waved her hand, saying, "Prepare to return to Marineford. The Marshal and the higher-ups have to make a decision on these matters." Soon, after Diarmait returned to the team, the navy's warships slowly sailed away from the port of Rogue Town.

Roger's dying declaration swept the world through the live broadcast and the next day's newspapers.

Just as Dorag said, the tide of the times cannot be resisted by one person alone.

Even Diarmait made a supplement at the end, explaining the navy's determination.

But as time went on, the brewing storm became more and more terrifying.

Countless people hung up the pirate flag that symbolizes evil, and at the call of the times, plunged into the wave of the new era.

For a time, thousands of ships were racing on the sea, and there were pirates almost everywhere.

Chaos and evil quickly impacted the order of the entire world. Even the world government was overwhelmed. Within a week, it had received requests for suppression from dozens of member states.

Marine Headquarters. Marineford.

In the conference room, Marshal Cyborg was sitting in the first seat.

Then the Warring States general was standing in front of a projection, holding a small stick in his hand and pointing at it. On it was projected a world map.

Diarmait and a group of other high-ranking naval officials had already returned from Rogue Town and were sitting down to attend the meeting.

"At present, there are no major changes in the New World, but we cannot take it lightly. I have reason to believe that this is because the wave has not yet swept to the New World. Now, looking at the overall situation, I can draw the following conclusion. Roger is dead, the era of pirates has begun, and now the four seas are in chaos. Because the branch bases set up by our navy in the four seas before, lack of combat effectiveness, resulting in this unexpected situation now, we are simply unable to suppress the four seas. At present, only the situation in the East China Sea is relatively stable, and the other three major sea areas have suffered serious shocks..." said General Warring States with a gloomy face.

"No matter what, it is certain that the number of pirates will continue to grow in the future. This is a very serious challenge for our navy. I hope that everyone can give full play to their abilities and clear the sea as soon as possible." Chief of Staff Ahe said.

Diarmait stroked his chin and spoke, "Judging from the current situation, the chaos in the four seas is only the beginning. When they have finished fighting within the four seas, the strongest warriors in each sea region will be determined. These people will definitely attack the Grand Line. Although Roger didn't say it explicitly, in the eyes of these people, their treasure must be in the New World. So, they will follow Roger's example and pour into the Grand Line from the four seas. After breaking through the first half, they will fight their way into the New World to search for treasure. Or maybe it's their ambition."

The other sailors nodded. They could guess this even if Diarmait didn't say it.

"Go on, do you have any good suggestions?" The Warring States general looked at Diarmuid and said.

The Warring States generals have always trusted Diarmait's brain.

"Yes, General," Diarmuid replied, then stood up, teacup in hand, and walked to the projection screen. He said, "The Four Seas branch bases have low combat effectiveness and insufficient manpower. This is a long-standing problem that has accumulated over the years. We can't reverse this problem in a very short period of time. Therefore, judging by the current situation, although it is regrettable, I believe we can give up the idea and hope of suppressing the Four Seas pirates in a short period of time..."

As soon as Diarmait finished speaking, the expressions of some of the admirals changed, as if they did not approve of his "appeasement"...

Sakaski frowned and looked at Diarmait, ready to refute something.

But just as he was about to speak, he felt something was wrong. Diarmuid had always been a man who dared to fight and kill. Sakaski would never doubt that. Someone like him... shouldn't be a surrenderist.

Thinking about it carefully, although Diarmait's words were harsh, they were indeed true. The navy was really unable to quickly suppress the countless pirates in the four seas.

Even the vast majority of those people now cannot be called pirates. To call them pirates is an overestimation of them. It is more accurate to call them "bandits".

With a small sampan or a leaky fishing boat, three or five hooligans gathered together and dared to go out to sea with a skull and crossbones flag.

The beginning of this great pirate era was truly chaotic. All kinds of monsters and scoundrels dared to call themselves pirates.

This phenomenon will continue for the next few years, until the heat dissipates a little, and then the pirate craze will truly come.

Sakaski is now a representative figure of the Navy hawks. He did not refute Diarmait's remarks, and the others who were ready to make a move did not speak out to offend Diarmait.

Diarmait took a sip of tea before continuing, "Therefore, I believe that at this stage, our navy's top priority is not to compete with these so-called 'pirates' within the Four Seas, but to quickly establish a defensive presence within the first half of the Grand Line. We must be prepared to deal with any impact these bastards have on the Grand Line before they leave the Four Seas. We must wait for them to tire themselves out and minimize the impact of evil and chaos to the greatest extent possible. Once we have weathered this first, largest, most complex, and most chaotic wave, we can then begin to suppress the Four Seas again!"

Sakaski touched his chin and felt that what Diarmait said made sense. Instead of doing thankless work, he should reorganize the armaments of the four seas and fight guerrilla warfare against those pirates.

It would be better to directly strengthen the defenses on the front half of the Grand Line, wait for them to tire themselves out, form a defense line, and give them a good blow!

Cyborg 2.9 also nodded. To put it simply, what Diarmuid meant was to exchange space for time.

Now, because everything happened too quickly, the navy had no measures or preparations to deal with it, so it was caught off guard in the four seas.

Now, Diarmait wanted to release the four seas to buy time for the navy in the first half of the Grand Route, so as to avoid being caught off guard when the time came. …

Although there are a lot of flaws, it does sound very effective.

Worth a try!

"It seems no one has any objections?" Marshal Cyborg asked first. Seeing no one spoke, he nodded and said again: "Then let's follow this plan. Adjust our current focus and devote all our efforts to building a defense line in the front half of the Grand Line. We strive to eliminate all the pirates who will flood into the Grand Line in the future!"

"Yes! Everything is for justice!" Sakaski, Kuzan and other naval generals all responded in a deep voice.

After saying this, Marshal Cyborg smiled again and said, "Well, now that things have come to this, don't be sad. The right thing to do is to do your job well. Now let's talk about the rewards for Roger and Ski..." Upon hearing this, Diarmait quickly sat down in his seat with an expectant look on his face.

Here it comes, I'm about to get my general candidate, right?!

(Please give me flowers and monthly votes!).

Chapter 91: General Candidate Acquired! Inaugurated as G-7 Base Commander! (Three Updates)

As soon as Marshal Cyborg finished speaking, many naval commanders looked towards Diarmait.

They all knew very well who would bear the brunt of the consequences.

Roger was almost captured by Diarmait single-handedly.

Shiki, that was captured by Diarmuid, Gion, and General Sengoku together.

Among them, Gion and Diarmait both play supporting roles, but Gion's contribution is obviously not as much as Diarmait's, and as for the Warring States general, he has now reached this point.

Unless he is given the position of marshal, there is no room for promotion.

Therefore, the main responsibility naturally lies with Diarmuid.

As expected, Admiral Zhan Guo spoke: "Commodore of the Navy Headquarters. Dauberman, effective immediately, will be promoted to Rear Admiral of the Navy Headquarters. Gion, for a great merit, will be considered for the next promotion to Vice Admiral of the Navy Headquarters, Rear Admiral of the Navy Headquarters..."

General Zhan Guo held a document in his hand and began to read out the accumulated merits of many naval generals.

Some people got promoted and received salary increases, some were commended, anyway, those with a name and a name all made contributions to some extent.

Just as Diarmait had guessed before, capturing Roger was Diarmait's credit within the navy, but from the overall situation, it was the credit of the entire navy, and it was impossible for him to be the only one rewarded.

"Vice Admiral Rodriguez Diarmait of the Marine Headquarters is awarded the honor of candidate for admiral and is appointed the commander of the G-7 base." Admiral Sengoku finally called out Diarmait's name.

Diarmait grinned, the general was indeed a man of integrity.

Everything that was promised to him was fulfilled!

"That's all." The Warring States general finally said.

As soon as he finished speaking, all the navy officers in the conference room sat up straight and said in unison: "Everything is for justice!"

At this time, Diarmait was sitting next to Kuzan. After shouting a slogan, Diarmait nudged Kuzan with his shoulder, winked, and looked like a smug villain.

Kuzan rolled his eyes at Diarmuid and said, "Okay, okay, you're awesome, okay?"

“Hahahahahaha…” Diarmait laughed.

The Warring States generals and others looked at Diarmuid with amusement and asked, "What are you laughing at, kid?"

"I just remembered something funny." Diarmait said with a smile.

Kuzan took a sip of tea and said, "This guy is mocking me."

"What are you mocking?" Gion asked curiously.

"The first time I met Diarmait was in the sanatorium. We talked about some things and he said that he would surpass me in the future. Now he has achieved it..." Kuzan said with a smile.

This kind of thing is just a funny story, and no one thinks Kuzan would be angry about it, so many people laughed along.

If you think about it carefully, Diarmait is really a powerful guy.

Back then, when General Zefa brought him back from the North Sea, no one really took him seriously except General Zhan Guo for some reasons.

For example, Sakaski didn't even bother to pay attention to Diarmuid.

But he never expected that from the year 1496 of the Haiyuan calendar to the year 1500 today, in just over four years, Diarmuid had climbed from the position of colonel in the naval branch to the current position of lieutenant general, and received the honor of candidate for general.

In this era, this is simply incredible.

Fortunately, Diarmait joined the navy since he was a child, which helped him shut some people up.

After all, if you count the time he spent in the branch, Diarmait has been working in the navy for more than ten years.

When you think about it this way, it makes more sense.

Now, Diarmait has become a candidate for the position of general.

At present, Sakaski, Borsalino and Kuzan have not yet been awarded the title of candidate for general.

Gion and Kake and the like were not even promoted to lieutenant general, let alone anything more.

In four years, Diarmait had risen to the leading position of their generation.

Now, he has obtained the honor of candidate for general, general and marshal of the Warring States Period, and decided to let him go to G-7 for training.

Everyone also understood that once Diarmait did a good job in G-7 and demonstrated his other talents.

In the future, when he has the opportunity to become a general, General Zhan Guo and Marshal Gang Gu will definitely recommend him.

This is no longer something that a lieutenant general can represent. Diarmuid is now a potential general.

After arranging some other trivial matters, the meeting was adjourned.

Now the matter between Roger and Shiqi has been dealt with.

Roger, needless to say, his body was cold.

According to Shiqi, when Diarmait went to the East Sea, he was also imprisoned and sent to Impeldown.

Diarmait knew that Ski would be imprisoned for about two years, and then he would break the myth of Impelton's iron wall and become the first man in history to escape from prison by force.

Although he returned to the sea afterwards, he disappeared for twenty years.

To be honest, by the time he reappeared, he wasn't much of a threat anymore.

After all, twenty years later, all his strength had disappeared, and he could only rely on the reputation of an old legendary pirate to fool people.

In the end, he was killed by the Straw Hat Pirates.

However, after escaping from prison, Shiqi is no longer a threat.

But Diarmait didn't want him to escape from prison. After all, there was a blood feud between him and Ski. Who knew what this madman was thinking?

It's not impossible that he might get into trouble.

Although Diarmuid knew that Shiqi would escape from prison in about two years, he didn't know the exact month, date or day!

He can't go to Imperial and keep an eye on Shiqi every day, right?
