Chapter 155: Navy Dawn Branch! "D" Branch? (Two in One)
"Dressrosa?!"
In Marshal Gang Gukong's office, Ji Guoyuan raised his left hand and pointed the hilt of the knife directly at the nautical chart.
The place he pointed to was an island country in the middle of the New World. When Gang Gukong looked back and saw this place, he was obviously stunned.
He was not surprised that Yoshiichi Tsugakuni decided on the location to establish the naval branch so quickly, he was just surprised that the place Yoshiichi Tsugakuni chose was Dressrosa.
Dressrosa's position in the New World is almost equivalent to the Strait of Malacca in the present world.
Being able to control this place is equivalent to being able to control one of the largest shipping ports in the New World, which is of vital significance for the navy to control the New World.
"Dressrosa!"
"It's such an important place. Our navy has considered establishing a branch here."
"but."
"Tsugikuni Yoriichi, let's go to another place. This place is beyond the control of our navy."
"Even a place like Shuixianxing Island took a lot of effort for our navy to gain a foothold. If you hadn't stopped the attack of Shiki the Golden Lion, the G-ICE branch on Shuixianxing Island would have been destroyed by the pirates by now."
"Even the branch at the end of the New World is suffering from pirate attacks of this magnitude. If you establish a branch in Dressrosa, I'm afraid the threat you face will be even more terrifying."
"The pirates will never allow such a nail to be inserted into their sphere of influence."
Gang Gukong looked at the sea chart, turned his head, and advised Ji Guoyuan in a deep voice.
The New World has always been considered the pirates' backyard. The erratic weather conditions in the New World make it impossible for the navy to conduct large-scale operations there. The fleet is too concentrated, and a single shipwreck can cause heavy losses to the navy.
Activities in the New World are necessarily small-scale and limited in scope, and this is one of the main reasons for the proliferation of pirates in the New World.
Because the control of the navy was greatly reduced in the New World.
At the same time, after the Rocks Pirates disbanded, Captain Rocks himself died, but many of his crew members and cadres survived.
After years of growth, those cadres have grown into powerful pirates. With these people around, the navy has no time to care about other pirate groups, big and small.
Instead of going to the New World and expending great energy to fight against those powerful beings, it would be better to expend less energy to stabilize the Four Seas. Even with such a strategic approach, with the current strength of the navy, it is impossible to completely control the Four Seas.
The West Sea still looks like a chaotic area and is basically out of control.
In essence, the New World is actually the Garden of Eden for pirates.
Dressrosa, where Yoshiichi Tsugakuni plans to establish a new naval branch, can be said to be the center of this Garden of Eden.
In the future world, Doflamingo will be able to establish his own power here and control the entire country, relying not only on his own abilities, but more importantly, he has the support of the Four Emperors Kaido and also bears the title of Seven Warlords of the Sea.
The underworld is backed by Kaido, one of the Four Emperors; the white world has the title of Seven Warlords of the Sea appointed by the Navy.
With the combined effect of these two factors, Doflamingo, who walks between black and white, was able to gain a foothold in Dressrosa and develop his own business.
In the future world, the Navy attempts to strengthen its control over the New World, and this is also after the emergence of Pacifists and Seraphim.
Only then will the navy have the confidence to extend its tentacles completely into the new world.
Prior to this, the Navy had been extremely cautious about infiltrating the New World.
Over the years, only a few small branches have been established to collect intelligence.
Sora Akechi would not be so naive as to think that a young man like Yoriichi Tsugakuni would come to Dressrosa just to establish a naval intelligence point.
Kong Gu has been keeping a close eye on Yuichiro Tsugakuin and he thinks he knows something about him.
There was no doubt that although Tsugikuni Yoriichi was trained by Zephyr and Garp, he was definitely a hawk. Even Sora knew that the hawkish old guys in the Marine Headquarters had become restless recently.
With the rise of Yoriichi Tsugakuni, undercurrents have already been surging within the navy.
On the surface, the navy is headed by marshals and admirals, but in reality, the influence of those older generation lieutenant generals in the navy is terrifying.
"I'm not going to change my mind."
"If we want to establish a branch in the New World, Dressrosa is a crucial location."
"Here, I can connect the G-10 branch and the G-ICE branch in the New World. With these three branches as a foundation, the Navy will be able to radiate influence in the New World."
"I hope the Marshal will seriously consider it and agree with my idea."
After listening to what Yoshikazu Tsugakuni said, Garp and others in the office looked at Yoshikazu Tsugakuni.
"He's a young man who's planning to do something. I think I can give it a try."
"At worst, I'll lose some money and withdraw from Dressrosa."
Zhan Guo pondered for a moment, sat on the sofa, and gave his suggestion. He beside him also nodded slightly to show his agreement.
Seeing that his two think tanks had reached a consensus, Ganggu Kong seriously considered the pros and cons.
If successful, the navy would have a foothold in the New World.
If it fails, the worst result is that the branch will be destroyed by pirates and all the members of the branch will be killed.
But r
If the branch had been led by Yoriichi Tsugikuni, the man who slew the Golden Lion, the worst-case scenario might have been avoided. Perhaps the Navy could have simply paid a small price and attempted to establish a new foothold in the New World.
"Um"
"Brigadier General Tsugikoku Yoshiichi, I agree to your request."
"Do you need any support from the headquarters in establishing a new branch?"
Since Kong Gu Kong has asked this, Jiguo Yuanyi will not be polite to him.
What's most important in this era? Talent! What's second? Equipment!
"I want headquarters to allocate a group of elites with leadership experience to the branch to help me recruit and train new soldiers."
"At the same time, I hope that this headquarters can provide sufficient funds. I'm a little embarrassed to say that I don't have my own warship yet, so this will probably cost a lot of money."
"Putting aside my own vehicle, if I want to establish a branch, I think I'll need at least 10 warships."
"Oh right, weapons. The pirates in the New World are very powerful. If ordinary marines want to inflict damage on them, they need not only their own strength but also sufficiently advanced weapons."
"besides."
Tsugikoku Yoriichi spoke his request quickly, completely unaware that Kyōkotsu Sora's face was growing darker and darker. Tsugikoku Yoriichi wasn't expecting help from headquarters; he was planning to turn headquarters into his branch.
Ten warships?
You are a lieutenant general, are you planning to issue the demon-slaying order yourself when the time comes?
At the end of the discussion, Kong Gukong only agreed to allocate a few experienced officers to Jiguo Yuanyi to assist him in establishing a branch.
At the same time, he promised to allocate a warship to Yuichiro and give him 1 billion berries in start-up capital.
This is the greatest support that the headquarters can give to Yuichiro. In this era before inflation, one billion berries can do a lot.
Yunyi's previous request was just a casual remark, and he gave up after getting these benefits.
"The New World branch is different from other branches of the Navy. In the New World, it is difficult for the headquarters to provide you with any support in a timely manner."
"You have to rely on yourself."
"Tsugikoku Yuichi, you will be the leader of the new branch. I give you the right to name the branch yourself."
After discussing some preliminary matters regarding the establishment of the branch with Yunyi, Kong Gukong said to Yunyi:
As he finished speaking, the senior executives in the office looked at Yuichiro Tsugakuin with a smile.
"What's the branch name?"
"Then let's call it 'Dawn'!"
"Dawn, daybreak!"
"I will open the dawn for the people in the new world!"
Hearing this name, Sora, Garp and others were stunned, and then looked at Yoriichi Tsugakuni with serious faces, as if they wanted to see something from Yoriichi Tsugakuni.
Cyborg frowned and opened his mouth to reject it, but Garp burst into laughter.
"good!!"
“That’s a great name!”
"Marshal Steel Bone Sora, there's no need to be overly sensitive about a name. I think this name is pretty good."
"What do you think?"
Garp looked at Cyborg Sora, causing Cyborg Sora to swallow the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
"D."
Kong Gukong looked at Jiguo Yuanyi, said something in his heart, and finally sighed softly, then nodded and agreed.
Before the awarding ceremony, Jiguo Yuanyi had already discussed the relevant matters of establishing a branch with the senior management.
After coming out of Sora's office, Yoriichi Tsugaku and Garp walked towards Zephyr's residence together. At lunch time, Sengoku brought Rosinante to Zephyr's house for a free meal.
Rosinante, who hadn't seen Yoriichi for a long time, rushed up to him shouting as soon as he saw Yoriichi Tsugikuni. In the headquarters, Rosinante really didn't have many friends of the "same age".
Zhan Guo has now officially started training Rosinante. After Rosinante turns sixteen, Zhan Guo does not plan to arrange for Rosinante to enter the Naval School, but will directly send him to the Sihai branch to study. When he is eighteen years old, he will enter the Naval School.
Zhan Guo intended to let Rossinanti follow the path that most naval generals had taken. He did not want to train Rossinanti as a "second generation".
Rossinante is not Tsugikuni Yoriichi, and he is not so talented that he can directly join the Naval Academy without being criticized.
Rossinanti's strength is still far from enough!
During the meal, Rosinante mentioned this matter. There was no complaint in his tone, but full of expectation. Looking at Rosinante's enthusiasm, Yunyi also smiled and said with blessing:
"Then we'll meet on the sea!"
"When you grow into a qualified officer, I will ask General Zhan Guo to transfer you to the New World!"
"Together, let's bring peace to this sea!"
Listening to Yunyi's blessing, Rosinante nodded heavily and promised, "Of course! I will be able to enter the new world soon!"
After dinner, Garp, Sengoku and others left.
Yixiao and Cyrus also settled down in Zefa's house. After arranging a few people, Zefa took Jiguo Yuanyi to his study alone.
"Teacher Zefa, what's going on? You're being so mysterious."
Yunyi was pulled into the study by Zefa. He saw Zefa carefully close the door, and then carefully and solemnly took out a small box from the secret compartment of the study, and asked with some confusion.
"I have something to give you, something very important."
"sit!"
Zefa pointed to the chair in front of him. After Yunyi sat down, he pushed the box in his hand in front of Yunyi and continued, "Open it and take a look."
"What is it? Teacher, did you prepare a gift for my promotion?"
"Thank you so much!"
While saying this with a smile, Yunyi opened the box in front of him. The things inside the box at this time also made Yunyi Jiguo's pupils shrink slightly.
"Devil Fruit?"
"Looks like it's the Smoke Fruit?!"
Yoichiro Tsugakuni recognized the contents of the box, raised his head, and looked at Zephyr in confusion.
Zefa nodded slightly and confirmed: "Yes, it is the nature-type, Smoke Fruit!"
"I asked a student to collect it!"
"This thing is for you!"
Zefa said with a grin, but his words made Yunyi frown:
"Teacher Zephyr, I have no intention of eating a devil fruit. I don't think it's necessary for me to create a weakness out of thin air."
"Smoke Fruit, I don't need it."
After a brief moment of confusion and surprise, Yoriichi's expression returned to normal. He closed the box, gently pushed it back in front of Zephyr, and spoke in a firm tone.
"Who said you were allowed to eat it?"
"Keep it. If you meet a subordinate you trust, you can let him eat the Smoke Fruit to strengthen the branch!"
"For ordinary people, the Natural System is a chance to ascend to heaven overnight. It can directly add a powerful person to your branch!"
"Although I think your 'right and left hands' are both very good, it's not easy to gain a foothold in the New World, especially in Dressrosa!"
"Take this and prepare for the establishment of the new branch. I'll come see you once you're stable!"
As Zephyr spoke, he pushed the box in front of Yoriichi again and said with a smile, not caring at all that what he was pushing to Yoriichi was a natural devil fruit that was priceless.
Looking at Zephyr, Tsugakuin Yuichiro didn't refuse anymore. He smiled and opened the lid of the box again. Looking at the devil fruit inside, he thanked Zephyr and said, "Thank you, Mr. Zephyr. Since you are strengthening my branch, I would like to thank you in advance for my subordinates who will eat this fruit in the future."
"By the way, Mr. Zefa, you said before that you asked a student to get this thing. Who was that student? I have to thank him very much."
Hearing this, Zefa smiled and said, "Sakaski is a lieutenant general."
"But he's not at headquarters right now. He's on a mission out there, so you don't have to go find him and thank him."
"If you can make good use of this devil fruit, it will be the greatest gratitude to him."
"This guy Sakaski is a very good young man."
Listening to Zefa's evaluation of Sakaski, Yunyi smiled and nodded slightly.
As for Akainu, even though he spent his whole life in the Demon Slayer world, when Yoriichi heard this name again, he still knew who the other person was.
He had no prejudice against Akainu, he was just an extreme hawk in the navy. In such a chaotic world, it was much better for someone like Akainu to be the admiral than the indecisive Kuzan.
But that was before Yoriichi Tsugikuni came into this world!
He will personally take the helm of the navy's future and make it move in the direction that Yunyi has envisioned!
Two days later, the awarding ceremony for Tsugumi Yoshiichi was held in the auditorium of the Naval Headquarters.
On this day, all officers above the rank of colonel in the Navy Headquarters were present to watch the ceremony. Looking at the red-haired young man on the rostrum who was awarded the rank of lieutenant general at such a young age, the officers of the headquarters who were watching the ceremony felt extremely excited.
Everyone knows that this young man who became a vice admiral at the age of 14 will open a new chapter for the navy and influence the navy for decades to come!
After the awarding ceremony, Tsugikuni Yoshiichi and his "right-hand man" boarded Garp's ship and left the Naval Headquarters.
but
Garp's dog-headed warship did not enter the New World as reported to the headquarters, but instead sailed into the Grand Line.
"Vice-Admiral Garp, is it really okay not to report to headquarters?"
"I don't want to be demoted just after being promoted to Lieutenant General!"
At the bow of the dog-headed warship, Tsugikuni Yoriichi stood on the deck, looking at the sea ahead, and asked Garp beside him. While Yoriichi was speaking, Cyrus and Yixiao behind him both looked at Garp standing next to Yoriichi.
“Hahahahahaha!”
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter!"
"Rules are dead, but people are alive!"
"You want a warship? This headquarters can only give you one. That old, obsolete thing is useless!
"If you want a good battleship, you'll have to find someone to build it! It's unrealistic to contact Dr. Vegapunk privately, but..."
"I know somewhere there are people who can build battleships!"
"I won't let you down, hahahaha!"
Garp's laughter was drowned in the waves. Yunyi looked at the confident Garp, feeling somewhat helpless. He put his hands on the railing and looked at the sea.
Unlike when he returned to the Marine Headquarters, this time, Tsugikuni Yoriichi had three long swords on his waist.
Tenhahazan and Yanma, who were left at home, were also brought out this time by Yunyi. This time, after leaving the Marine Headquarters, it was unknown how long it would take before they would have the chance to return to the headquarters, so these two famous swords were also brought out by Yunyi.
If the knife in your hand is lost in battle, you need a replacement, right?
