Chapter 161 Porusalino: The Sacred Carla Connects Us!
For the temporary shelving of the "Shichibukai" plan, Porusalino had actually expected it - after all, the navy is absolutely opposed to pirates, and although the current situation of the navy is very bad, it is not so bad that it must be Only by cooperating with pirates can the status quo be maintained.
Moreover, rather than saying it was "anticipated", it is better to say that Porusalino actually had the purpose of temporarily shelving the Shichibukai plan from the beginning - because as Brother Xun said: "The temperament of the Chinese people They always like to make compromises. For example, if you say that this room is too dark and a window must be opened here, everyone will definitely not allow it. But if you advocate removing the roof, they will come to compromise and be willing to open a window."
Although the people in the pirate world are not Chinese, they are actually very different in their preference for "harmony and compromise" - it is precisely because of this that Porosalino prepared two plans.
Perhaps saying this is disrespectful to one of the three major forces in the future world, the Shichibukai, but the fact is that in Porusalino's plan, the first radical "Shichibukai" he submitted previously The plan was just used as a "backstop" for the second compromise plan, which was the plan he really wanted to promote.
By the way, according to the original plot and timeline of One Piece, the Shichibukai plan should be successfully passed after more than ten years. Because at that point in time, the New World had already formed a situation in which the four emperors were at odds with each other, and the World Government, relying solely on the power of the Navy Headquarters, was no longer able to compete with the growing number of the four emperors, so it had no choice but to resort to "fighting pirates with pirates." strategy...
…
The time is twelve o'clock at noon on August 4, 1502 in the Haiyuan calendar. The location is the No. 1 restaurant in the Marine headquarters of the Navy, in a private room exclusive to general officers.
Porusalino reached out from his coat pocket and took out an exquisite tin cigarette box with a seagull icon printed on it, and slowly took out one:
"What, lend me a hand, Sakaski~"
"..."
Sakaski, who was sitting diagonally across from Porusalino, made his attitude clear with his silence and cold eyes.
"Tsk..."
Porusalino was not angry at all. He smacked his lips and then lit the cigarette with the laser on his fingertips.
"So you'd better explain it a little bit, Porusalino-senpai,"
Kuzan, who was sitting diagonally across from Porusalino, gently cut a piece of steak into several small pieces with a table knife and said, "You hit a wall with the Warring States Marshal, so you decided to Are you looking for us to peddle your plan to cooperate with pirates in the 'Shichibukai'? Let me state in advance that although I don't think all pirates deserve to die, if you want me to cooperate with pirates, Porusalino Senior, you must completely convince me~"
"of course not,"
Porusalino shook his head and puffed away contentedly, "Didn't you read it? The two white papers I gave you before were clearly written in them."
"The writing is too ugly, I can't be bothered to read it."
"puff--"
"Hey! What do you mean the handwriting is too ugly! I specially wrote it with my own pen to show you my serious attitude! And I obviously have my own font style!"
The reactions of Sakaski and Kuzan left Porusalino speechless, but he quickly waved his hand, "Forget it.
I'm too lazy to argue with you two guys who don't appreciate it... I'll explain these two plans myself. "
"The first is your plan, Sakaski, which is the 'Burning Crusade'..."
"The navy's manpower is already stretched thin. Even if I were willing to personally lead the expedition, I'm afraid I won't be able to mobilize so many elite sailors, let alone have them stationed all over the world for a long time to hunt down those who enter the Grand Route from the source. Pirates,"
Sakaski frowned and interrupted Porusalino, who was about to speak at length, "Moreover, the high-level government officials would not agree that our navy would leave the pirates of the Great Channel alone and instead focus on threatening more dangerous people." Small Sihai.”
"I agree with Sakaski, Senior Porusalino."
Kuzan also put down his knife and fork, wiped his mouth and continued, "And in my opinion, those big pirates in the New World who are ready to make trouble are precisely because our headquarters' combat power is quite concentrated, so they are willing to treat them honestly. Within their respective spheres of influence... and once Marinefando's troops are dispersed, they may not be so honest. And, as the most important protection targets of Marinefando, the world's nobles in Mariegio..."
"...Didn't you fucking say you didn't read the plan?!"
"Do you believe this too?"
Sakaski sneered, showing disdain.
"puff--"
Kuzan was holding back laughter crazily.
"..."
Porusalino's fist was hard and hard - but considering that his two plans were tailor-made for the two people in front of him, or simply counting on them to execute them, he still forcibly suppressed his thoughts. Desire to hit:
"I know what you both said, so I prepared extra insurance work, which is Kuzan's 'Frozen Throne' plan."
Porusalino continued: "The Fish-Man Island, located 10,000 meters under the sea just below the Holy Land Marigioa, is the only place to reach the New World. It is also the birthplace of most of the fish-men and merfolk. And the way to Fish-Man Island is The ship must be coated by the coaters of the Chambord Islands. It can be said that the two key points of Fishman Island and Chambord Islands are closely related to the New World.”
"I understand what you mean, Senior Porusalino. You want the navy to increase its presence in the Shampoo Islands, and at the same time send troops to guard the Fish-Man Island, so as to cooperate with the powerful aborigines of the Fish-Man Island. , block all the elite pirate groups that break through from the Grand Line, right? And I, a natural-type frozen fruit ability user who is very suitable for exerting my abilities in the sea, will be stationed on Fish-Man Island and become the person in charge of the naval base there."
Kuzan scratched his head, "I think the idea is good, but senior, have you ever considered what Teacher Zefa once mentioned, the complex and sharp relationship between Fish-Man Island and us humans? If I remember correctly, Fish-Man The fish-men and mermaids on the island were once classified as "fish" by humans, and were discriminated against by humans... It wasn't until the Ryugu Kingdom became a member of the World Government 200 years ago that it began to establish friendly relations with humans, right? That's also when the Ryugu Kingdom became a member of the World Government. After that, the King of Fishman Island was allowed to participate in the World Conference..."
"So most of the indigenous people there still maintain a disgusting attitude towards us humans,"
Sakaski continued, "And even if our navy spends a lot of manpower and material resources to build a naval base there, we can't possibly guard against a large number of pirate raids on the one hand, and on the other hand, guard against those fish that hate humans. People and mermaids.”
"You are right. The most critical problem on Fish-Man Island is that the attitude of the indigenous people there is not completely friendly towards our navy, or towards us humans,"
Porusalino stroked his chin and said, "But after all, there are so many fishmen and mermaids living on Fishman Island, and there are still quite a few indigenous people who have a neutral or friendly attitude towards us. Moreover, those bad attitudes It can also be changed through some of our behaviors... Among other things, if Kuzan served as the base commander of the Navy's base on Fishman Island, would you help the indigenous people there to fight against the crimes of foreign pirates, and then arrest them? Where are the slavers?"
"Of course."
"Really? In addition to these actions we can do, we can also attract the fishmen to join our navy. The senior officials have always coveted the strong naval combat capabilities of the fishmen, and the people in power on Fishman Island also hope that they can Show more of your own position and strength in the world government system... It can be said that both sides actually have the intention to cooperate, but due to the bad relationship in the past, no one spoke first."
"So you just want to talk?"
Sakaski looked Porusalino up and down with strange eyes, "The Polusalino I know would not bother to study such a plan...could it be said that Counselor He used the ability to wash fruits, Have you washed away all your laziness?"
"puff--"
"You have laughed three times today! Kuzan! Be careful and you may break your legs laughing in the future!"
Porusalino first glanced at Kuzan, who had committed the crime of disrespect, and then shook the ashes slightly, "Of course I won't bother to do thankless things, but if these plans can be passed smoothly, then we Wouldn’t the pressure faced by the Navy be greatly reduced? Then wouldn’t my job be correspondingly easier? It’s a matter of killing two birds with one stone!”
"So, if the plan is approved, Sakaski and I will go all over the world to perform various tasks, and then you, Senior Porusalino, can relax and enjoy yourself?"
"Well, you can't say that... Sakaski went to the four seas to carry out the 'Burning Crusade', Kuzan you went to the Fishman Island to build the 'Frozen Throne', and I, Porusalino, stationed at Marinevando, represent Holy Card...World Government connects you. We all have a bright future!"
…
While Porusalino was frantically instilling his thoughts and plans into Sakaski and Kuzan, in the marshal's office in the Marinevando Fortress Building——
"Warring States! Let me be healthy!"
"No! Garp, you old bastard! Get out!"
"I want Kangkang!!"
"No to Kang!!"
"Well... don't argue, Marshal Warring States, and this..."
Little Robin, who was holding a thick internal encyclopedia of the Navy, timidly leaned out from behind Marshal Sengoku's desk - although she didn't know who the old man who suddenly broke in and had a quarrel with Marshal Sengoku was. Who, but judging from the other party's dress and the conversation between the two, she knew very well that the other party was also a sailor. And since they are all sailors, why are they quarreling? And it’s because of myself...
"Why did you come out, little Robin!"
Seeing Little Robin coming out from behind his desk, Marshal Warring States felt quite regretful - if he had known earlier, he wouldn't have brought Little Robin over to play with General He Zhong. No, old bastard Garp He came to the door like a dog that smelled a bone.
"Are you the little Robin that Porosalino recognized as his sister? I am Monkey D. Garp, a naval hero. You can call me Grandpa Garp!"
Lieutenant General Garp came forward with a shy face, first took advantage of Porusalino, and then expressed his purpose of coming this time with bright eyes, "Are you still used to being here? Are you okay? Are people bullying you? If someone bullies you, tell Grandpa my name! I will beat him up for you! And... I heard that you are also a Devil Fruit user. Can you show Grandpa your ability?"
"Hey, Garp, you old bastard, if you don't know how to chat, don't force yourself to do so! Don't you feel embarrassed? I'm embarrassed for you!"
"Hmph! As long as I'm not embarrassed, others will be embarrassed!"
Lieutenant General Garp held his head high and looked very proud.
The Warring States Marshal could only twitch the corner of his mouth speechlessly, then put on a gentle face again and looked at Robin: "Little Robin, just show your ability to this bad uncle, okay? ?”
"……Um!"
Robin took a deep breath, then crossed his hands on his chest and gently closed his eyes.
In an instant, a burst of pink petals floated around her thin body, just like a flower blooming, and then four slender arms suddenly grew on her shoulders. As if it had grown in that place, it moved its wrists and fingers flexibly.
In fact, little Robin, who originally lived in O'Hara, could not use the ability of the flower fruit to grow four hands at once. Because she didn't even have enough to eat at that time, and she was still hungry every day. At most, she could use her extra hands to scare the children who bullied her, and then her face would turn pale due to excessive consumption. , I couldn’t slow down for a long time.
But since Porusalino brought her back to Marinefando, Major General Fina and Jessica, who were very fond of her, not only provided her with a very good diet, but also changed their ways of accompanying her every day. She allowed her body and mind to recover - little Robin, who was already very talented, naturally mastered the ability to use the flower fruit to create four hands under such circumstances.
"That's brilliant, little Robin!"
The Warring States Marshal did not hesitate in his words of praise, his face was full of kindness, "You will definitely become an excellent sailor in the future!"
"Don't you think so, Garp?"
"Garp...?"
Only then did the Warring States Marshal realize that his old friend Garp was looking at little Robin as if he was dumbfounded. His mouth opened and closed again, but he was still unable to spit out a single word.
"Garp, could you..."
"Little girl,"
Lieutenant General Garp finally spoke. His voice suddenly became extremely low and magnetic, and the smile on his face changed from an old and ungrateful one to that of a handsome old man. His whole appearance was different, "I have a child." A boxing technique that is invincible in the world, as if it was tailor-made for you!"
"How about becoming my disciple?"
