From the Navy Admiral to the Gotei 13

As a navy admiral, I really don't have a good impression of the CP2.9 agency. I always feel that those people are like mad dogs, biting whoever they catch.

However, in terms of intelligence and reconnaissance capabilities, the CP agency is indeed far ahead of their navy.

I've heard some rumors recently that they are making some big moves and setting up a new intelligence agency. However, the Navy has no power to interfere in this matter. Admiral Zhan Guo only knows something about it thanks to the Marshal's relationship with the higher-ups.

Not really.

After thinking for a moment, General Zhan Guo nodded and said, "Things have come to this. We really can't let Douglas Barrett go any further. You have a point. This kind of thing is a headache for more than just us. I'll go talk to the Marshal later."

After a brief pause, the Warring States General looked at Diarmait and said, "Speaking of which, that guy's abilities are quite formidable. You might be able to restrain him. If there ever comes a chance, I might have to arrange for you to take action."

Diarmait was stunned for a moment, then he smiled and nodded, saying, "Okay, if I meet him, I will definitely kill him."

Seeing this, the Warring States general nodded with a smile.

He also listened to Borsalino's report and, based on some video footage recorded on the warship at the time, confirmed that Diarmuid had indeed fought against pirates like Charlotte and Linlin in a short period of time without being at a disadvantage.

Therefore, I didn't doubt his bold words just now.

Chapter 111: Find a way to fight the World Government!? (rd update)

I met up with Zephyr again in Marineford, and we chatted about some interesting things. I also heard about the East China Sea. Rogue Town had recruited a new Nature student named Smoker.

Because of his natural ability, compared with Sakaski, Kuzan, Borsalino, Gion and others, the navy there directly recommended him to the headquarters.

Currently, Smoker has entered the military academy and started doing odd jobs.

That’s right, I’m doing odd jobs, not studying.

The main reason was that Smoker was too young to join the navy directly, and Mr. Zephyr sympathized with his potential in nature, so he sent him to military school early.

Just wait for him to study and learn in the military academy for a few years. When he is of the right age, he will be accepted as a disciple, arranged for him to attend classes in the military academy, and after graduation, a good career path will be found for him.

As for the natural ability, there was nothing surprising about it, the Smoke Fruit.

Diarmait was very interested in the little brat Smoker, but he had no intention of going to see him.

After staying at Zephyr's house for a day, I left Marineford the next day and returned to G-7.

Near the G-7 sea area, Diarmuid's warships were sailing slowly.

He stood at the bow of the deck and could already see G-7.

The expansion project was completed a long time ago, and it has been undergoing fortification recently. From a distance, one can see a large number of artillery and fortresses standing in the fortress.

The port has also been expanded, from the original one port to the current four ports, with dozens of brand new warships docked there.

At the same time, at the port, you can see teams of naval soldiers doing drills. Judging from their appearance, they should be newly recruited.

I guess the recruitment in Gion is almost completed.

After further training and reaching the conventional combat capability of the navy, we can continue to capture people from Impelton with a base of 50,000 troops.

The military town planned by the G-7 has not yet been started.

The development plan for the doldrums is about to begin.

On the deck, Diarmait was leaning against the fence with a Den Den Mushi in his hand, chatting with the people on the other side of the Den Den Mushi.

"So? Has the matter been exposed?" Diarmait asked with a smile.

"No, Vice Admiral Garp directly lived in that woman's house. Come to think of it, that woman is quite amazing. She has long exceeded the normal delivery period, but she still has no intention of giving birth to the child. Her willpower is really strong. I admire her a little bit." Stussy responded on the other end of the Den Den Mushi.

That’s right, Diarmait is building a relationship with Stussy.

After all, he is a good comrade in the personal alliance.

She carried a gun for me and I fired a cannon for her.

"Vice Admiral Garp is really loyal. Ever since we parted in the South China Sea that day, he hasn't left Batlila Island for such a long time. I've passed by our headquarters several times but never saw him..." Diarmait said with some emotion.

Maybe this guy Garp has many faults and is too tough.

But you have to say, if you have established a relationship with him where you can trust him with life and death and family, then you really won’t have anything to worry about if something happens to you.

"Yeah." Stussy said with some emotion.

Whether it was Diarmait or Garp, Stussy actually felt that kind of humanity in them.

In comparison, the CP organization is so cold and dark that it is frightening.

Whenever he thought of this, Stussy felt more and more fortunate that he and Diarmait had become an alliance.

In this darkness, I have found some stable support.

Especially when Diarmait became the candidate for admiral of the Navy Headquarters, Stussy felt more relieved.

She was not mistaken.

After a brief pause, Stussy continued, "Speaking of which, the search here will soon be over. It can be said that we've found basically nothing. Also, didn't I mention before that we at CP-0 are going to set up an external intelligence agency? Now that the framework is set up, many people are vying for leadership of this agency, and I'm ready to give it a try."

“Are you sure?” Diarmait asked with a smile.

"With me here, of course it's 100% certain!" Stussy said confidently.

She also shared some of the credit in the capture of Roger, and after that, she continued to work tirelessly and tirelessly in carrying out long-term search missions in the South China Sea without any complaints.

The chief and the commander-in-chief of CP both admired Stussy's character and methods. Besides, her achievements had not yet been realized. As long as she asked for it, the people above her probably would not make things difficult for her.

By then, the Queen of Happy Street will be truly worthy of the title.

"Then congratulations in advance." Diarmait said with a smile.

Stussy responded briefly, then whispered, "Isn't it likely that you in the navy have noticed something's amiss recently?"

Diarmait frowned slightly and asked, "What do you mean?"

"Huh? Didn't you feel it? It shouldn't be... Originally, I thought that since you were promoted to candidate for admiral, after working at G-7 for a while, it would be time for you to return to the headquarters and be promoted to admiral, so I secretly inquired about the situation. Didn't you hear? The Five Elders are not planning to fill the vacant admiral position in your navy for the time being." Stussy said.

Diarmait pondered for a moment, then said, "General Zhan Guo did mention this to me... but I didn't pay much attention to it."

"It's us on the CP side who are running this. We're afraid that your Grand Marshal will be promoted to the commander-in-chief of the entire army due to his accumulated merits, and will seize power from us. So we persuaded the Five Elders to suppress your navy for the time being. Maybe for a long time in the future... we won't let go of this loophole easily." Stussy said softly.

Diarmait didn't take it seriously. He smiled and said, "I'm not in a hurry either."

In Diarmuid's impression, Sakaski and the other three generals were promoted only after the arsonist Tiger died.

There is indeed still more than ten years left, and he doesn't seem to be in a hurry.

But after hearing his answer, Stussy immediately said in a deep voice, "No, Diarmait, you must fight for it! Try to become the Admiral of the Navy as soon as possible!" Diarmait was stunned for a moment, then asked, "Why...?"

"To be honest, your navy has never been very good at political struggles. You may be very smart, but you are too immature in this regard. If your 'indifferent' attitude were placed in our CP, we would have been eaten to the bone!" Stussy warned first.

After a brief pause, she continued, "If you hadn't gotten the title of candidate for general, it would have been fine. If the general position hadn't been vacant, that would still have been fine. There's nothing much to say about that. But now that you've gotten the title of candidate for general, and there's a vacancy in the general position, it's logical that after training in G-7 for a while and proving your abilities, you should return to headquarters to serve as general, right?"

"Yes." Diarmait nodded.

"But according to the current trend, after you finish your work at G-7 and return to headquarters, you still cannot be appointed as a general, right?" Stussy asked again.

"That's right...what's wrong?" Diarmait frowned slightly, still a little confused.

"What else? This proves that your Navy Headquarters' power over internal personnel appointments and dismissals has been influenced from the outside by our CP agency. Do you know what this means? This loophole cannot be opened, and your navy must not accept it passively. If you don't realize the impact behind this matter, the CP's test will be successful. Later, they will become more aggressive, and your navy's authority may be encroached upon. This is the normal goal of internal struggles. Political struggles are either progress or regression. You must strive to become a navy admiral in the shortest possible time to break the CP's adverse influence on the navy in this regard. Otherwise..." Stussy said this, his tone was already very serious.

"Otherwise, will this kind of thing become the norm? An unspoken rule? Will the CP have new ways to interfere with the navy's internal affairs?" Diarmuid already understood what Stussy said.

Today, the CP agency intervened in the promotion of admirals within the navy by persuading the Five Elders.

If there was no admiral candidate like him in the navy, it wouldn't be a big deal. It wouldn't be affected by CP at all because the procedure is normal.

The fact that he was a candidate for admiral and was suppressed proved that CP had indeed affected the authority issues within the navy.

The Navy has not yet responded to this matter. In Stussy's words, it is not smart enough in political struggle.

Once the Five Elders and the Navy acquiesce to this phenomenon, it will gradually evolve into an unspoken rule.

After that, if the Navy takes any action on this matter, the CP agency may jump out again to suppress the Navy.

By that time, the door had already been opened and it became an unspoken rule. It would be very troublesome to deal with it later!

This is why we cannot open doors casually in many matters!

If you let yourself go and take it easy today, you are sowing the seeds of trouble in the future!

"That's right!" Stussy said in a deep voice.

Actually, as a high-ranking official in CP-0, she shouldn't have told the Navy these words.

But Stussy made a clear choice between the interests of the CP and his own interests.

I don’t care about the interests of your CP organization. I just want to protect my own interests.

She has already formed an alliance with Diarmait. In the short term, no... even in the next ten or twenty years, both sides will benefit from cooperation and help each other.

Only in this way can we go further and have greater influence.

If Diarmuid had wasted more than ten years as a candidate for the position of general, Stussy felt that he would lose a lot of benefits and support.

This is something she absolutely doesn't want to see.

So after hearing some rumors, she keenly noticed the CP agency's subtle intentions, so she sold the CP agency without hesitation. …

At this moment, Diarmait finally figured everything out.

To be honest, he was indeed too careless. Since he had been doing very well in the headquarters in the past two years and had the protection of Admiral Sengoku and Marshal Ganggu, it was natural for him to become the candidate for admiral of the Marine Headquarters.

Therefore, he is now in the most relaxed moment, and believes that he will have no pressure at all when he becomes a general in the future.

Unexpectedly, because he became a candidate for admiral, he gave the CP agency an opportunity to harm the navy, and he didn't notice it at all, and the navy has not reacted yet.

He didn't know whether the subsequent Warring States Generals and Steel Bone Marshals would be able to react and launch an effective counterattack, but Diarmuid knew that he could no longer "take things for granted".

Once G-7 has some real results, he will have to fight for it after he is transferred back to headquarters!

Even if we have to confront the World Government head-on... we have to make the Five Elders give in.

As for how to confront the World Government, Diarmait has not figured it out yet.

But there are definitely two points that need to be grasped. The first is to cause trouble to the CP organization and make them lose the favor of the Five Elders. The second is to unite the internal forces of the Navy and fight together.

Otherwise it would be useless. Just as a candidate for admiral, he cannot change the decision of the World Government and the Five Elders.

"Drag. The Seven Warlords of the Sea. These two points, one can be used to cause trouble for the CP Agency, and the other can be used to unite the navy against a common enemy..." Diarmuid thought to himself.
