A few days later.
Because the incident took place in Pangu City in Marijoa, although a group of reporters who were responsible for recording the World Conference outside the city vaguely learned about the revolutionary army's attack on the town, under the strong suppression of the World Government, almost no one knew that Saint Charlos had been killed.
There is no way. The killing of Celestial Dragons has happened more than once in recent years. For the sake of the face of the World Government and the descendants of the Creator, no matter what, this time this news cannot be released.
So, after the government's intervention, today's newspaper headlines are as follows:
"Shocked, the Revolutionary Army dared to attack the Celestial Dragons' territory?!"
"The Navy vs. the Revolutionary Army? An episode that happened during the World Conference!"
All major newspapers vied with each other to write about how fierce the battle was at the time. The vivid descriptions almost occupied about half of the newspaper's pages.
What? You ask why such a big thing only takes up half of the page
That's of course because...the remaining half of the page was almost filled with the news that the Navy Admiral had been replaced.
"The former admiral of the navy, Momotosagi, voluntarily abdicated, and the Thunder Sword Master Vivian took over and became the youngest admiral in history?"
"Thunder Swordsman? Thunder General! Looking at Vivian's life experience."
"The youngest general in history? Our reporter will analyze whether Vivian is worthy of this title."
"..."
"Newspaper reporters nowadays are really good at writing headlines."
Vivian sat in the yard of her own mansion, crossed her legs, and sighed as she read the newspaper.
Then his attention was focused on the headline that analyzed whether his strength was worthy of the title of general.
"The Thunder Swordsman Vivian was completely defeated by the Gun God Logt Larven a while ago. Although Larven's strength has surpassed many of the Four Emperors' vice-captains in the popular version, and he has become the man closest to the strength of the Four Emperors, but even so, Vivian, who can't even defeat Larven, in my opinion, is also not worthy of the position of admiral."
Why do we say “same” here
Because before, when Taotu had just taken up the post of Grand Admiral, the reporter also wrote an article titled "Analyzing the Strength of the New Grand Admiral Taotu".
In that fake press release, Taotu was subjected to countless doubts, just like Vivian.
"The government actually listened to your request and changed your code name to Thunder General."
Also sitting in the yard was Peach Rabbit.
Just look at this woman wearing a pink casual suit, holding a cup of green tea in her hand, taking a sip gently, looking at Vivian with a look that could not be more leisurely and comfortable.
"No, you've been quite free lately." Vivian couldn't help but say.
"Of course, after I retired from the position of general, I realized for the first time that my previous life was so beautiful."
Vivian: “…”
"But your future life will be very difficult. After all, not only the government, but also the outside world is paying close attention to your every move as the new general."
Thinking back to the pressure she had just taken on as admiral, Taotu still felt a little breathless. But now, she has retired from the position of admiral and can watch others "suffer" with gloating.
"Oh, paying attention to my every move? So what..."
He has already thought it through. At worst, he will just give up. If his superiors really go back on their word and revoke his position as admiral, that would be the best. He can then take advantage of the situation and push the real Fujitora to the position.
Although Fujitora really doesn't want to be an admiral now, he feels that it is necessary for his "follower" to sacrifice on his behalf rather than becoming the admiral himself.
Thinking of this, Vivian closed the newspaper nonchalantly and continued to lie on the recliner, sipping tea leisurely like Taotu.
Tomorrow I will have to hand over all the work from Taotu and go to work in the base office of the headquarters. I have to relax while I still have some free time, otherwise I may not have the chance in the near future.
...
The next day at noon.
After a simple lunch in the cafeteria, Vivian, led by Taotu, came to the general's office on the third floor of the base.
This was originally Taotu’s previous office. Now, there is a plaque with five large characters “Gentle Justice” hanging on the wall behind the chair.
"You can ask someone to replace this thing later. After all, as a general, you still have to go through the motions and do enough superficial work."
"oh."
Vivian nodded.
But at the same time, I was wondering, what exactly is justice for me
Is it justice full of benevolence
Or arbitrary justice
Vivian put a cigar in his mouth and started thinking.
At the same time, Taotu threw a pile of documents on the desk in front of Vivian.
"These are the things I have been dealing with recently. Some of them have been completed but not yet filed in the data room, and some have only been halfway through. Now I hand them all over to you."
Vivian: “…”
"You really don't feel any pain in your conscience?"
Looking at the information that was as high as a mountain, Vivian couldn't help but complain.
He clearly remembered that Kizaru in the anime only punched in and out every day and never handled affairs in the office. Why is it that now that it is his turn, he has so many affairs to deal with
This is obviously directed at him.
Little did people know that when Kizaru became the admiral more than ten years ago, he also went through the same process.
Do you want to just punch in and out at get off work every day and waste your time without any qualifications
Kizaru said: You have a nice idea.
"By the way, your admiral's cape and suit have been customized. Someone should deliver them to you later. Well, if there is nothing else, I will go back to drink tea."
Momosaki licked her red lips. It turned out that the tea that Fujitora usually drank was really to her taste.
"Okay... If there's anything I don't understand later, I'll ask you..." Vivian responded weakly.
After Taotu left the office, he sighed, sat down, and began to look through the documents on the table.
"Do you have to personally review all the missing child cases in this town?"
"Some pirates whose bounties are only 20 or 30 million have to be personally classified and investigated..."
Does the general still need to do this kind of work
It's just like deliberately making trouble for the newcomers.
He curled his lips in dissatisfaction.
At the same time, accompanied by a knock on the door, Vivian's suit and uniform had been delivered to the office as Taotu had just said.
