From the Navy Admiral to the Gotei 13

It would be better to place it near Marineford. He had already decided to station 10,000 navy troops in the Land of Gold, guarding this hard-earned wealth day and night. Slowly exhaling a puff of smoke, Kuzan walked over to Diarmait with a smile, patted his shoulder, and said, "Were you blackmailed by the Warring States General?" "No," Diarmait said calmly, waving his hand.

"No?" Kuzan was stunned for a moment. It doesn't look like you are willing to do this, right?

"That's not extortion, that's outright robbery." Diarmait sighed, then added, "In my opinion, even if Admiral Sengoku doesn't join the navy, he'll be a pirate on the same level as Whitebeard when he goes out to sea. He's very talented in that area!"

“Hahahahahaha…” Kuzan laughed.

Diarmuid got angry when he saw his gloating look. Just wait, when you start riding a bicycle, I will shit on your head!

"Could you please show a little respect to your superior officers, Lieutenant General Kuzan?" Diarmuid glared at Kuzan.

"You still hold the rank of Lieutenant General, but you have the honor of being a candidate for general. In terms of military rank, we are still on the same level, Lieutenant General Diarmuid." Kuzan said with a smile, his tone still a little gloating.

"Hmph, the Land of Gold is my money to buy an official position. This time, I finally heard half a word of truth from the mouth of the Warring States general." Diarmait suddenly laughed again.

"What exact words?" Kuzan asked.

"He said that I would become a general sooner or later, and told me not to be stingy." Diarmait replied with a smile.

"Aren't you afraid that he is deceiving you?" Kuzan whispered.

"Then what can I do? Can I really keep the entire Golden Land in my hands?" Diarmait asked.

"That's true. A higher-ranking official can crush people to death." Kuzan said with some emotion.

"But objectively speaking, there's no point in keeping it. You might as well give it to the headquarters. We're short of money right now, and with this kind of supplement, the headquarters can better cope with the Great Pirate Era... and benefit the entire navy. You've earned a reputation this time, and all the navy will remember your kindness. If there's a chance to be promoted to admiral in the future, you'll be indispensable." Kuzan nodded again and analyzed.

Diarmait was not a pirate, so he knew very well that it was impossible for him to keep all the gold for himself.

Handing it over to the headquarters is also an inevitable result.

What Kuzan said makes sense.

After chatting for a few more sentences, Diarmait asked, "What about you? You don't plan to take the position of general?" "I'll just forget about it?" Kuzan said after a slight hesitation.

He was not a very active person, and his thoughts were influenced by Garp to a certain extent. He did not particularly care about the position of Navy Admiral.

After discovering that Kuzan had been led astray by Garp, Admiral Sengoku quickly brought Kuzan to his side to train him.

According to the original story, if nothing unexpected happens, Kuzan's values ​​will be reshaped and he will eventually become one of the three admirals of the navy.

But now, although General Zhan Guo also brought Kuzan with him, he did have a strong inclination in his heart to train Diarmait to become a new generation of naval admiral.

Otherwise, Diarmait would not have become the first candidate for general among this group.

With Diarmait taking the lead, the Warring States generals did not force Kuzan to reshape his values ​​and force him to become a general.

Even General Zhan Guo felt that if Kuzan was really willing to take a step back on this matter, it would be of some benefit to the entire navy.

This is to prevent Diarmuid and his companions from causing any serious conflicts in their positions as generals.

As of now, Sakaski is definitely going to compete for the general position, and General Zhan Guo has already confirmed this.

The same was true of Diarmait, who never concealed his desire to become a general.

Therefore, among the new generation, there are actually two people who are determined to win the positions of the three generals.

Only Borsalino and Kuzan did not express their opinions. Borsalino would just get by as long as he could, and as for Kuzan, it's almost the same now.

This is good, either of them can take the position in the future.

The remaining one will not have any resentment, which is conducive to the stability within the navy.

Without talking about this matter anymore, Kuzan sat cross-legged next to Diarmait, and then asked curiously: "I heard that Gion ate the Thunder Fruit?" "Yes, we went to Sky Island to find it." Diarmait nodded.

Kuzan's expression suddenly became a little bit vulgar, and he winked at Diarmait and said, "That's amazing. You are worthy of being a man who owns the wealth of the entire Golden Land. You are so generous." "What are you talking about?" Diarmait asked in some surprise.

"The Thunder Fruit, which is recognized as the strongest and invincible devil fruit among natural abilities, you actually gave it to Gion like this, and you still say that you are not interested in her? Are you two already hooking up together?" Kuzan raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile.

Gion is the beauty of the navy, a real military beauty with many suitors.

Although Diarmuid always said that his friendship with Gion was pure comradeship, Kuzan never believed it.

Diarmait was fine, with no abnormal behavior, but Kuzan could see that Gion had some special feelings for Diarmait.

Although Gion has a good relationship with Kuzan, in all these years, Gion has never had such a close relationship with anyone else in the headquarters as he has with Diarmait...

Kuzan had already discovered that Diarmuid was a somewhat special person to Gion.

Maybe there is nothing between the two of them now, but as the saying goes, if a girl chases a boy, it’s easy to succeed. With Gion’s charm, if she really makes up her mind to seduce Diarmait, there is no reason why she won’t succeed!

If this fails, Kuzan will start to doubt Diarmait's sexual orientation and won't be able to get too close to him in the future. What if he exposes his retreat?

"What are you talking about? I am Gion's immediate superior, and I plan to train her to be my right-hand man in the future. I can't just let the Thunder Fruit sit in my hands just because it's strong, right? Only when the devil fruit is used can it be transformed into combat power. If it is not used, it will just be a collection. I gave this ability to Gion, which is a strength enhancement for both me and the navy. What's more, do you think I am the kind of superior who would be jealous of talent and suppress his subordinates? Or do you think I don't have confidence? Confidence that I can be stronger than Gion who got the Thunder Fruit? If I didn't have this kind of spirit, how could I compete for the admiral and marshal of the navy? How could I challenge Whitebeard, the strongest in the world?" Diarmuid said without hesitation.

"You still want to challenge Whitebeard?" Kuzan said after a moment of surprise.

“Don’t you want to?” Diarmait asked.

Kuzan pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "Think about it, who among us wouldn't want to challenge Whitebeard and claim the title of the strongest?"

"That's it, isn't it? What's so strange about this? Those of us who have reached this stage all want to step into the ranks of top masters, and after entering, who doesn't want to become the real strongest?" Diarmuid said with a smile.

"So you gave the Thunder Fruit to Gion for no other reason? Was it simply out of public interest?" Kuzan asked curiously, staring into Diarmait's eyes. Diarmait nodded and said, "Gion and I have a simple friendship..."

But when he said this, Diarmait suddenly recalled the scene on Sky Island that day when Gion hugged him and kissed him.

The words in my mouth suddenly stopped coming out.

Seeing this, Kuzan laughed loudly, stood up, patted Diarmait on the shoulder and said, "Hahahaha, yes, your friendship is pure comradeship. I believe it, hahahaha..."

"What are you laughing at?" Diarmait asked with some embarrassment.

"I remembered something funny, is that not okay?" Kuzan said arrogantly.

"You want to start a fight?" Diarmait said unhappily.

I always feel like this bastard is mocking me! ?

But what's so funny about that? Even if Gion and I were having an affair, shouldn't we be the ones mocking you for being single?

How can I be ridiculed?

"We can't fight anymore. Let's do it next time. I'll come over and talk to you before I get ready to go on the mission." Kuzan shook his head.

"Is there something wrong?" Diarmuid asked curiously.

"Well, in the Great Pirate Era, there are always a few outstanding ones..." Kuzan nodded, but didn't say much.

Diarmait didn't ask any more questions, 527 nodded, and after chatting for a few more words, Kuzan turned and left.

Not long after Kuzan left, the Warring States General came over from the crowd with a smile, patted Diarmait on the shoulder and said, "Well, well done, Diarmait. I will definitely give you a credit." "I've spent so much money, why don't you give me a promotion to general or something?" Diarmait rolled his eyes. The Warring States General's expression became a little more serious when he heard this, and he whispered, "Speaking of which, things have been a little strange lately."

"What's wrong?" Diarmait asked, standing up.

"Before, the people above wanted us to quickly fill the positions of the three admirals. As you know, the marshal had many arguments with that bastard Garp for this. But recently, the higher-ups seem to be interested... Anyway, they haven't mentioned this matter again. The marshal even tried to probe them once, as if the higher-ups still want us not to worry. Could it be that they are thinking of another way to mess with our navy?" Admiral Sengoku said softly.

But this is just a guess and should not be taken seriously.

Diarmait nodded but said nothing.

Anyway, in his impression, General Sengoku was promoted to marshal after the Mary Geoise arsonist Tiger was arrested, and Borsalino and others were successfully promoted to the three admirals at that time.

There are still more than ten years to go. He has no idea what happened during this period and why he was not promoted to general.

But he guessed that it might be related to the CP agency?

After all, the current commander-in-chief of the entire army is a member of CP. If he is promoted to admiral now, with the navy's achievements in capturing Roger and overthrowing the Golden Lion, it is very likely that there will be a change in the entire navy. At that time, Marshal Steel will most likely be promoted to the position of commander-in-chief.

This will affect the power of the CP. …

It was not Diarmait's turn to worry about these things for the time being, so he simply stopped thinking about them.

The Warring States general had no intention of discussing this matter in depth with Diarmait, and changed the subject: "The reason I called you back this time is not just about the Golden Land. There is something else that I want to entrust to you and Borsalino to handle." "Yes, everything is for justice." Diarmait agreed immediately.

Our department has assigned you a job, can you still refuse?

Come to think of it, it’s been a while since I worked with Borsalino. I wonder what happened?

(Please give me flowers and monthly votes!).

Chapter 104: Navy's Mission: To Grab Vegapunk!? (Update )

Marineford, in General Sengoku's office.

Diarmuid and Borsalino sat on the sofa, while the Warring States General was looking for some documents.

Diarmait poured two cups of tea and pushed one to Borsalino.

Borsalino said with a smile while cutting his nails: "Thank you." "You're welcome, we're friends." Diarmait said with a smile.

"That's true." Borsalino replied, then asked, "-How have you been lately?"

"What's good about it? I was robbed of trillions of berries by an old man. I should have lived a rich life, but now I'm poor and destitute." Diarmait rolled his eyes.

“Hehehe…” Borsalino also laughed.

He had just witnessed what happened in the Golden Land with his own eyes, so he naturally knew what Diarmait was talking about.

The Warring States general standing by was quite shameless. He pretended not to hear what Diarmuid said and continued to look for the documents.

"What about you? How have you been recently? I haven't seen you at headquarters for a while, and I haven't had a good chat with you in Rogue Town..." Diarmait asked.

"I'm in Punk Hazard. The scientific corps is in my hands, and there are a lot of things to do. The headquarters is planning to build a scientific research base there. Originally, there were some problems with funding, but now... thanks to you, there should be no problem." Borsalino joked.

"Alas, sacrificing me will benefit thousands of families." Diarmait sighed pretentiously.

Punk Hazard is a standard non-existent island.

Just like the revolutionary army's future base, Barudigo, it is an island without a magnetic field. Therefore, this kind of island will not be recorded by the recording pointer.

If you want to get there, you must take a special route, so it is very concealed.

It is suitable to serve as a base for the Navy's scientific forces.

Borsalino was chatting with Diarmait.

After a while, General Zhan Guo also found the document he was looking for and threw it on the coffee table in front of the two of them. He picked up a cup of tea and said, "This matter is also related to your scientific forces." Diarmuid and Borsalino each picked up a document and began to read.

After looking at it for a while, Borsalino said, "That really does concern us. I've heard of this doctor... Vegapunk." Borsalino's scientific team includes a large number of scientists, led by M. Caesar Courant.

This guy doesn't have much humanity, but he is indeed good at scientific research. He is a top-notch scientist in the world today, specializing in weapons manufacturing and the like.

Borsalino often heard the name Vegapunk from Caesar.

But all Caesar kept muttering about the bad things about Vegapunk, saying that he was no match for him, Caesar.
