The gourmet among pirates

Mo Lin, who was confused about the purpose of Warring States, asked cautiously: "Marshal Warring States, I wonder what you want to see me for?"

On the other end of the phone, Zeng Guo seemed to hear Mo Lin's nervousness and confusion. He laughed and explained: "Don't be nervous, Colonel Mo Lin. I'm looking for you so early in the morning. Of course I have something good to tell you. "

After making a joke with Mo Lin to lighten the atmosphere.

Warring States continued: "I am calling you this time mainly to congratulate you, Colonel Morin, for your promotion. From today on, you will be an honorable commodore."

Promotion...promotion?

Mo Lin's eyes widened and he looked confused.

What happened? Why did I get promoted all of a sudden after all this stuff?

Just because I had a fight with Shanks, give me a promotion?

Not so!

The rank of general in the navy is not that cheap.

Although brigadier general is only a position between colonel and major general, in a broad sense, it is a true general rank.

"What's going on? Marshal, I don't seem to have done much credit recently! Why was I suddenly promoted?" Mo Lin asked the phone bug in confusion.

"Are you really not making any merit?" Warring States asked in reply before explaining to Mo Lin:

"Brigadier General Morin, have you forgotten the incident in which you asked the Kingdom of Rivers for help not long ago? In that incident, you independently killed the pirate "Sea Urchin" Motorcycle with a bounty of 78 million Baileys. Brother, the Rivers Kingdom specifically asked the World Government to take credit for that incident."

"Coupled with the contribution you made in guarding the Donghai Branch in the past few years, your promotion to the rank of brigadier general is a matter of course. Of course, your battle with the red-haired Shanks completely established your reputation and made the world The government recognizes your strength, which is one of the reasons why you were promoted to brigadier general so quickly this time..."

In Sengoku's explanation, Mo Lin finally understood the reason for his promotion to Commodore.

After the doubts were resolved, Mo Lin was excited about the promotion, but also a little hesitant. He hesitated for a while and asked: "Marshal Warring States, if I get promoted this time, should I go to the Navy Headquarters to report on my duties?"

According to the tradition of the Navy Headquarters, it is also to stabilize the rule of the Navy Headquarters over the four sea branches.

Every general-level officer in the Navy will be called back to the Navy headquarters for a debriefing ceremony when he is promoted.

At the same time, in that ceremony, those who are promoted will also take over the mantle of the admiral that shows the word justice under the spotlight.

It can satisfy the vanity and sense of mission of new naval generals to a great extent.

This is one of the weapons used by the navy's top brass to win people's hearts.

"Hahaha, of course it's coming. This is a navy tradition."

Seng Guo's laughter on the other end of the phone made Mo Lin's heart slowly sink.

Since he was going to the Navy Headquarters to report on his duties, wouldn't Molin want to go to the Grand Line?

The Navy Headquarters is located at the end of the first half of the Grand Route. The distribution of powerful people around this location is completely different from the East China Sea, which lacks combat power.

The difficulty index of survival there has skyrocketed compared to that in the East China Sea.

What should I do if I am attacked by others on my way to the Navy Headquarters?

Ordinary miscellaneous fish are fine, but what if you are unlucky and happen to encounter that group of hidden top powerhouses, or encounter a super large sea king?

On the other end of the phone, Zhan Guo waited for a while, but after seeing no response from Mo Lin, the smile on his face gradually faded.

[With this reaction, it seems that he really doesn’t want to come to the Navy Headquarters. 】

After sighing in his heart, Warring States continued in a joking tone: "Why, are you so happy that you can't even speak?"

Hearing this, Mo Lin also smiled sincerely and said: "Of course, this is my honor, but now, I'm afraid I can't leave the East China Sea for the time being?"

Warring States asked as expected: "Why? Is it because that guy Garp asked you to help him take care of the child? This does not conflict with your coming to the Navy Headquarters to participate in the debriefing ceremony! If you don't want to be separated from the child, just Just bring him to the Navy Headquarters, so I can also take a look at Garp’s grandson.”

"Well, I can also help him find a cultural teacher to prevent the little guy from inheriting Garp's unreliable temperament in the future."

Morin thought speechlessly.

[Goodbye, if you always find out that Garp's grandson is the son of Roger, the Pirate King, you will be so angry that you will vomit three liters of blood! 】

After thinking for less than a second, Mo Lin replied apologetically: "Sorry, Marshal, I really can't leave now. Do you think the debriefing ceremony can be postponed for a while?"

Chapter 69 The second call.

"After all, the Red-haired Pirates are in the East China Sea now. If I leave, I'm worried... It will be difficult to find a navy in the East China Sea that can check and balance the Red-haired Pirates."

At the end, Molin's voice couldn't help but become serious.

Although this was a temporary excuse that Mo Lin came up with, to be honest, Mo Lin was really worried about it.

How could a future Yonko pirate group spend a lot of time in the East China Sea for no reason?

Obviously, there must be a reason for red-haired Shanks to travel to and from the East China Sea many times.

It's just that Mo Lin hasn't figured it out yet. After all, the animation he watched in his previous life only showed a corner of this world. Compared to this huge world, the things described in the animation are simply insignificant.

As for you saying that Red-haired Shanks returned to the East China Sea to help the Red-haired Pirates go home and visit their relatives, that's a joke.

If you really want to go home to visit relatives, just let Jesus Bu and the others come back alone. Besides, the red-haired pirates have stayed in the East China Sea for a year many times. How can such a long time be explained by just visiting relatives? ?

After Mo Lin finished speaking, Warring States on the other end of the phone also fell silent.

Mo Lin was right, although now the three navy generals including Kizaru, Akainu, and Aokiji have grown up and are known as the golden generation of the navy.

But after the death of Pirate King Roger, the golden age of pirates also started.

In recent years, the sea has become more and more turbulent, and powerful pirates have emerged in endlessly. Even though the navy is more powerful than before, it also seems to be getting weaker.

Today, the Navy Headquarters no longer has the control it once had over the second half of the Grand Line, the New World.

In order to suppress the pirates on the Grand Line, the current navy headquarters is indeed unable to allocate troops for the time being to go to the East China Sea to contain the red-haired pirates.

With the strength of Red-haired Shanks, if you want to contain the Red-haired Pirates, you will need to deploy at least one admiral candidate level combat force.

The problem is that combat power of this level is either stationed in various branches in the new world or put out fires everywhere to deal with those powerful pirate groups.

Now, Mo Lin, who was born in the East China Sea, can contain Shanks and give him someone to be afraid of. Not to act recklessly in the East China Sea is actually the best way to deal with it at the moment.

It can be said that Morin used the red-haired pirates as an excuse, which was perfect.

But if I just let Mo Lin go, wouldn't I lose the opportunity to meet Mo Lin and get to know this powerful naval man hidden in the East China Sea better?

After thinking about it for a while.

Zhan Guo finally shook his head.

"Forget it, as a navy, he has also arrested many pirates over the years. The No. 127 branch area where he is stationed has become the area with the best security in the East China Sea in the past two years. Since this kid wants to stay in the East China Sea, , then let him do it!"

"As long as he doesn't do anything that endangers the navy or violates justice, he can do whatever he wants. Why do I care so much? If you have merit, you will be promoted, if you have mistakes, you will be punished. Just let nature take its course. Why have to force it? What about him?"

After thinking about something, Warring States no longer hesitated to let Mo Lin come to the Grand Channel.

He organized his language and said: "In that case, let's postpone your debriefing ceremony. However, I have already been promoted to military rank. Even the brigadier general's uniform has been sent to you. Well, after all, The time should have come, you can go get this yourself."

"Oh, by the way, since you mentioned the Red-haired Pirates, it just so happens that you can keep an eye on the Red-haired Pirates while they are in the East China Sea! Well, except for the base commander of the 127th branch of the East China Sea, I also grant you the temporary concurrent position of East China Sea Guerrilla Admiral, so that you can mobilize the nearby navy at any time to deal with the red-haired pirates..."

After another exchange.

Maureen hung up the phone with a look of surprise.

He just mentioned it tentatively, but he didn't expect that Warring States really delayed his report time.

He was also given the position of East China Sea Guerrilla Admiral. Although he only held the position temporarily, during his tenure, he could directly recruit major branches of the East China Sea Navy and the power of warships was truly given to him.

When the Warring States Period came back, he was promoted to brigadier general and concurrently served as the guerrilla admiral of the East China Sea.

Then Mo Lin would jump from an ordinary colonel to one of the men with the most power in the Navy in the East China Sea.

His power far exceeds that of the general Donghai Major General, and is even higher than that of a Lieutenant General.

However, Mo Lin also knew that all this was based on Mo Lin's own strength.

If Molin didn't have the strength to check the red-haired pirates, Sengoku wouldn't have given him such great power.

······

Not long after Mo Lin hung up the phone from Seng Guo, the naval transport ship arranged by Seng Guo to deliver military uniforms to Mo Lin arrived at Navy Branch No. 127.

In addition to Molin's military uniform, this ship also contained a large number of daily necessities, because this was originally the transport ship used to transport supplies to Branch 127.

Compared to the supplies on the ship, Mo Lin's brigadier general's uniform was actually more like a carry-on item.

Captain Cao of the transport ship solemnly took over his brigadier general uniform.

It didn't take long for Molin to change her outfit and walk out of her office door.

Now that he has been promoted, Mo Lin has no intention of hiding it, and there are few people who have no intention of showing off to others.

Life is like ****, since you can't resist, just enjoy it.

After seeing Molin's new outfit, news of his promotion quickly spread throughout Branch 127.

······

After wandering around the entire branch base, Maureen returned to his office again.

Before Molin could sit down and rest for a while, the phone bug installed in the office rang again.

"Bulu bulu bulu, bulu bulu bulu..."

Looking at the phone ringing again, Molin said.

"On weekdays, this phone doesn't ring a few times for ten days and a half, but today it's like having convulsions. I think it's just a few times."

After picking up the phone somewhat strangely, Maureen asked: "This is Naval Branch No. 127, who are you?"

After hearing Mo Lin's voice, the person on the other end of the phone seemed to hesitate for a moment, and then said unconfirmed: "Are you...Mo Lin?"

Listening to the clear and sweet female voice that originally came from the phone bug, Mo Lin felt unusually familiar, as if she was extremely familiar with the owner of this voice.

But Mo Lin turned around in his mind for a long time, and he didn't remember who the owner of this voice was.

After thinking for a long time, Mo Lin still couldn't remember who the owner of the voice was, so he asked: "I'm Mo Lin, um... I'm sorry, I didn't recognize who you were?"

Chapter 70 Bellmère

The person on the other side of the phone didn't seem to care much that Mo Lin didn't recognize her voice. Instead, he was a little surprised that Mo Lin received her call directly.

She said: "It's really you, Maureen. I am Bellemere, Bellemere from the Thirteenth Branch. Do you still remember?"

Branch 13, Bellemere.

After these two words were intertwined, Mo Lin instantly remembered who the owner of this extremely familiar voice was.

After Mo Lin recalled the owner of the voice, she said excitedly: "Sister Bell, is it really you?"

"Of course it's me. Could anyone else pretend to be me?"

Bellemare was the second lieutenant of the 13th branch of the Navy where Maureen once stayed.

She once served as an instructor for the Thirteenth Naval Branch. Coincidentally, it was Bellemere who was the instructor of Molin's batch of soldiers.

Speaking of which, Molin's initial physical training and the initial basics of marksmanship (how to shoot) were all taught by the other party.

Because Molin was handsome and cheerful, he had a good relationship with the carefree Bellemere.

It can even be said to be intimate.

After all, Mo Lin had confessed to the other party on impulse.

After confirming Bellemeier's identity, Maureen asked doubtfully, "Sister Belle, you are still alive. This is really great. We lost miserably in the battle with the Kingdom of Oiket. Although we did not find it at that time, Your body, but we all thought that you had been sacrificed in that war, but we didn’t expect that you were still alive.”

"But since you are still alive, why don't you contact us after all these years?"

Bellemere was also an officer under Captain Jem. She also participated in the battle to defend the Ouikot Kingdom.

After the battle, the navy that arrived later found only Molin and a few other survivors, but not Bellemere. Molin thought she was dead.

"Although I was seriously injured in that battle, I luckily survived. Later, because I was tired of the war, I returned to my hometown. Now I am the mother of two children."

After hearing this, Mo Lin felt a little bit uncomfortable in her heart.

Although it was his predecessor who confessed his love, at least this is the person he confessed to!

Now that the other party had two children, Mo Lin felt embarrassed and disappointed.

He said in surprise: "Ah! You already have two children?"

Bellemare smiled and said, "Of course."

After saying that, Bellmeier was silent for a while, and then said in a deep voice: "Actually, the reason why I found this phone number and called you this time was because of my child."
