"Maude, the dinner is about to begin."
She was wearing a bright red dress, with elegant makeup, and she was incredibly beautiful.
The ability of the Slippery Fruit not only removed the scars on her face, but also gave her a face and body that were not inferior to Hancock's...
"knew."
Maude responded casually, lowered her head and concentrated on writing the last stroke of the word "tiger".
Sunny came to Maude quietly and looked at the word "Tiger" just written on the white paper.
"Maude, what is this word?"
"Tiger."
Maud put down the pen, picked up the paper, and looked at the words on the paper carefully.
"Tiger?"
Sunny was slightly surprised.
Although she has been in the Revolutionary Army these years, she has always paid attention to Maude's deeds and experiences.
So when she saw the word "tiger", her mind immediately pictured the current Navy Admiral Fujitora, who had always been friends with Mod.
"Is this for Fujitora?"
Sunny turned her eyes, looked at Maude's beautiful profile, and asked softly.
The word on the paper is not an ordinary word, but represents a pure gold ring.
"Um."
Maude didn't hide anything and nodded to Sunny.
The shock in Sunny's eyes became even stronger, and she subconsciously said: "But he is..."
"friend."
Maud smiled.
Sunny immediately said nothing more.
Only now did Maud notice Sunny's appearance.
"Where did you get these clothes?"
he asked.
Sunny smiled and said: "Sister Violet gave it to me, does it look good?"
Maud stared at the bright red dress on Sunny, pinched her chin and commented.
"The clothes are nice, but they are too feminine and not suitable for you."
"?"
... ... .
Navy Headquarters.
Marshal's Office.
Akainu frowned.
On the table in front of him was an order that could not be refuted.
The content is -
Immediately remove Fujitora from his position as general.
The reason for resigning was just two words - dereliction of duty.
"Suck yo yo..."
On the sofa directly in front of him, Fujitora buried his head in a murmur.
Akainu looked at him and said solemnly: "Are you still in the mood to eat?"
"When you're hungry, you have to eat. Do you want a bowl?"
Fujitora picked up the half-eaten soba noodles and asked.
“…”
Akainu's frown deepened.
Chapter 541: respective preparations
The Celestial Dragons are arbitrary and arrogant...
In the eyes of many people, it is already deeply ingrained.
But the removal of General Fujitora's position was so unreasonable that it went beyond Akainu's understanding.
I don’t know whether to say that the Tianlong people are ignorant and stupid, or that they are overconfident.
In today's situation, how important is the combat power of a general
Does he still need to talk about this kind of thing
Akainu looked gloomy.
In fact, he also knows that once the superiors make a decision, no matter how hard he argues, it will not change any facts.
Those words that the higher-ups didn't want to hear would never be heard even if he said them countless times in person.
And if the higher-ups want to hear it, he can get a response just by farting casually.
"Gulu gulu—"
The frustration and anger in Akainu's heart vented into lava, burning the transfer order and the desk to ashes.
Since sitting in this position, I have realized that many things cannot go as expected.
No matter what happens, it does not matter whether it is right or wrong, but it depends on the attitude and decision of the superiors.
If it were before—
As a general, he will only carry out his duties and complete the mission to the best of his ability without asking for any reason.
But now he is the marshal.
So it is no longer possible to consider the problem from the perspective of a soldier.
He must shoulder the responsibility of being a marshal, for the world, for this era... to kill the existence of pirates!
However, the current world government is different from the world government he recognized before.
Sometimes he even felt that the orders assigned by the upper levels of the World Government were holding him back just like his pig teammates.
For example, this adjustment order to cater to the mood of the Tianlong people is simply outrageous.
But he couldn't do anything...
Keeping your head down is the price you have to bear when walking up the stairs.
If you don't want to bow your head, you have to go all the way to the top of the steps...
But his ideal is not to stand at the top of power, but to end this damn era of great pirates.
Akainu realizes that some things can no longer be relied on from the top, so in order to deal with some changes that may happen in the future, he must have a back-up as soon as possible.
"I heard from the logistics side... You have burned down four desks this month."
Fujitora slowly put down the bowl.
He couldn't see it, but he knew what had just happened.
The smell of sulfur that filled the office was quite pungent, but luckily he had already finished eating the noodles.
Hearing this, Akainu looked at Fujitora, suppressing the anger in his heart and said: "It seems that you have no objection to this 'resignation'."
"I have failed in my duties many times, and it is appropriate for me to be held accountable and resign."
Fujitora picked up a hand towel and wiped his hands.
Judging from the many facts that have happened, he did not fulfill his duties as a general in all aspects.
Originally, Kizaru should have shared the responsibility with him.
only-
Kizaru died in battle.
Then, all the responsibilities will naturally be borne by Fujitora alone.
But on the other hand, because Kizaru died, Fujitora is willing to accept all accountability.
Anyway, it happened.
Fujitora will accept the situation calmly.
Maybe someone is thinking...
Why did the Navy suffer repeated defeats at the hands of Maude
Even when he had the upper hand, he never took advantage of Mod
But Fujitora wouldn't think about this.
He placed the handkerchief next to the bowl and then reached out to fumble for the crutch leaning against the side of the sofa.
Akainu frowned and watched with a gloomy expression as Fujitora picked up the crutches and stood up.
From the time he received the order from the top to the time Fujitora sat here and finished eating the noodles, Akainu's brows never relaxed.
"Don't forget, you're still a Marine."
He looked at Fujitora who was about to get up and leave, and said in a low tone.
The Navy Headquarters could reluctantly accept Admiral Fujitora's abdication, but it could not accept Fujitora's departure.
The combat power of a general is irreplaceable!
Fujitora's movements suddenly stopped.
He didn't respond to Akainu's words. He tapped the ground with his cane and groped towards the office door.
Akainu stared at Fujitora silently.
It wasn't until Fujitora walked out of the office and left for a while that he withdrew his gaze and turned to look at the phone bug that had survived the burning of the boiling lava.
... ... .
On the corridor.
The sound of clogs on the ground was heard, mixed with the sound of walking sticks tapping the ground.
Fujitora, wearing a purple robe, walked on the corridor.
Every navy he encountered on the way would silently give him a military salute.
These silent words and deeds clearly indicate that Fujitora still regards Fujitora as a general.
This also shows Fujitora's reputation and weight in the navy.
Facing the silent salutes from many naval admirals, Fujitora made no response.
He walked all the way to the corner of the corridor, then suddenly stopped.
Beside the corner wall, Garp with white hair was leaning there, obviously waiting for him here.
"have a drink?"
Garp invited.
Fujitora turned his head to think, but soon he was reminiscing about the taste of soba noodles.
then.
He asked in return: "Is there any soba noodles?"
"Ha ha."
Garp laughed and said, "That's enough."
Half an hour later.
