Chapter 53: Are Member States Taking Advantage of the Chaos to Cause Trouble? Implementing the Three
"Not only in the four seas, but also in the Grand Line, the current situation is far from optimistic."
"Although you have sent most of your commanders to the Grand Line to quell the rebellion, the results are not yet particularly noticeable."
Seeing that Sora was so angry, Tsuru felt a little embarrassed.
But she still had to add fuel to the fire.
He took out a new stack of intelligence and placed it on the table, reigniting Kong's anger.
bang~
Another slap brought the already shaky table to its final rest.
"Damn it, have these kings gone mad?"
"It's one thing for pirates to rebel, but for them, as a member state of the World Government, to do something like this at a time like this is unacceptable."
"Damn it, they all deserve to die."
Intelligence indicates that, in the first half of the Grand Line, besides the numerous riots caused by pirates...
Even more outrageous, some member states of the World Government also chose to actively join the riots.
For example, the Kingdom of Mokfiel.
At this critical juncture, they actually dispatched thousands of troops to annihilate some small neighboring countries.
In just over a week, they wiped out a total of five small countries.
All the original nobles and royalty were killed.
All disobedient civilians were killed.
The ignorant pirates who came to plunder were all killed.
It's like the Three Lights in the One Piece world, utterly outrageous.
It then annexed all the islands and lands of these small countries.
This transformed the Kingdom of Mokfiel, which was originally just a medium-sized country.
They leaped to a point where they were almost at the level of a large kingdom.
In other words, the country's top-tier military strength is still insufficient.
Otherwise, the Kingdom of Mokfiel would truly be defined as a large nation.
There are only a handful of large nations along the entire Grand Line.
The consensus is that becoming a large nation requires very stringent conditions.
In addition to meeting requirements such as population, area, and resources.
Most importantly, the country's strongest fighting force must be composed of generals.
At the very least, one must be a candidate for general, which is equivalent to the rank of deputy to the emperor.
If this requirement is not met, no matter how powerful a country is, it still cannot be called a large country.
For example, in the Kingdom of Alabasta, the strongest person isn't even a lieutenant general.
His country's land area is still almost the largest in the world.
Does anyone in the world acknowledge that it is a large country?
No, none at all.
In other words, the World Government is considering past friendships.
In addition, the Alabasta nation is ultimately descended from the Twenty Kings, and thus has come into contact with many secrets.
Ultimately, at the request of the World Government, the Navy specially set up a branch here.
Ensure that the Kingdom of Alabasta is not destroyed by pirates.
The fact that the Kingdom of Alabasta has survived for so many years is closely related to this.
Besides the Kingdom of Mokfiel, other kingdoms like the Kingdom of Koobi and the Kingdom of Abuse operate similarly.
It's just not as outrageous as the Kingdom of Mokfiel.
This is also the main reason why Steelbone is so annoying.
When member states of the World Government cause trouble, it's really difficult for them, as navies, to take action.
These kings were incapable of doing other things, or at least not very well at them.
However, they are quite adept at causing trouble for the navy.
Once they have their eye on it, it will be raised at the quadrennial world conference.
The argument is that the navy's mismanagement necessitates a reduction in military spending.
If there are enough countries in the same boat, their navy is going to have a tough time.
"Air Marshal, the World Conference, which takes place every four years, is just around the corner."
The crane, as if it were an empty stomach, uttered a soft sentence.
"Yeah, another world conference. Damn, this is really tricky."
I don't know how to handle this situation right now.
It's obviously not going to work if it doesn't react.
If this continues, more and more world governments and member states will follow suit.
The Grand Line is chaotic enough; if it gets any more chaotic...
Now that he's a naval admiral, he can pack his things and go back to his hometown.
But the reaction also doesn't work.
They are all member states, belonging to the high-level ranks.
At least administratively, they are no less powerful than the navy.
Fortunately, at this moment, Sengoku quickly used his brain and gave a suitable suggestion.
"Marshal Kong, report to the Five Elders. Anyway, you don't have the authority to report directly."
"Let's just pass this hot potato to the Five Elders and wait for their orders."
"For us in the navy, our primary job is to deal with pirates."
"Let the army or even the CP organization deal with these messy affairs of the member states."
As long as Brian isn't involved, Sengoku's mind remains clear.
It hit the nail on the head, directly pulling me back from my aimless, rambling thoughts.
"You're right, Sengoku. I'll report this to the Five Elders and let them worry about it."
"Yes, there is a road. Okay, let's do it this way."
Kong nodded, preparing to call the Five Elders after this small meeting.
Although he really didn't want to make that call at all.
Every time I call the Five Elders, I inevitably get insulted by those five old guys.
Unfortunately, Kong couldn't say a word in response.
These are all high-ranking officials, the true pinnacle of power.
It's gotten to the point where Kong is practically developing PTSD from the Five Elders.
Unfortunately, he really had no choice but to fight.
The problem can't be solved without making a phone call.
"Oh, right."
"Garp, you and Zephyr should work together, each in a different direction, and wipe out the pirates in the first half of the Grand Line as soon as possible."
"Go to the four seas, Crane."
"You understand the depths of the four seas better than those two brutes, and you act with discretion."
"These places can't continue to be in such a state of chaos."
"If things continue to be chaotic, it will be difficult to recruit new navy personnel next year."
I was thinking about the main purpose of today's small meeting.
I looked up and set out a new task.
"Alright, Marshal Kong."
"No problem, Marshal Kong."
Garp and Zephyr were the first to nod, both of them knowing what was going on.
To put it bluntly, it was murder.
"Marshal Kong, I understand."
"But what about the forces in the West Blue, South Blue, and North Blue that involve the World Government?"
Crane nodded in agreement, but he was troubled by these sources of turmoil across the land.
The West Sea Mafia, the South Sea Cross Society, and the North Sea Germa Family.
It's all related to the world government, it's really damn tricky.
"Let's wipe out the pirates first and cut off their outstretched tentacles."
"But avoid direct conflict with them; just push them back to their original territory."
"I will report the rest to the Five Elders."
"Yes, I understand."
The crane nodded, seemingly lost in thought.
"As for Sengoku, you can stay at headquarters and recuperate while you're at it."
"Yes, thank you, Marshal Kong."
Zhan Guo nodded, looking quite helpless.
Given his physical condition, it's unrealistic for him to be able to go on a mission anytime soon.
"Alright, that's settled then, meeting adjourned."
"Yes, I'll take my leave."
"Yes, Marshal Kong."
Da Da Da~
The four quickly left the empty office.
After the four people left, Sora took out a Den Den Mushi (a type of electric scooter) from the cabinet behind him. It looked very expensive.
"Hiss~"
"Bru bru bru~"
I took a deep breath before dialing the number.
"Kachcha~"
"My Lords, your subordinate, Steelbone Sky..."
Go ahead and ask!
If you want to know something, just ask.
Just hitting without asking questions?
