Chapter 146 Decision, headquarters’ reward!
Kong Gang's question made Zhan Guo silent immediately.
Garp and Zephyr looked at Sengoku and laughed silently, as if today's meeting had nothing to do with them.
Steel Bone Sora had obviously noticed that Garp and Zephyr were standing aside and preparing to watch the show. He raised his head, looked at Zephyr, and asked:
"Zefa, you are Tsugikoku Yoriichi's master. Tell me, for his achievements like this, what kind of reward should our navy give him?"
"Don't say something like General Sheng. You know it's absolutely impossible."
"The World Government has already turned a blind eye. If Tsugikuni Yoriichi rises to the rank of Admiral like this, many things will be beyond our control."
"Give me some practical advice!"
Kong Gu Kong is actually very troubled now. On the one hand, he is happy for Tsugikuni Yoriichi's achievements. He is also not young anymore, and he is actually very happy to see outstanding young people coming to the fore in the navy.
But what bothered him was that who was this young man who stood up? It had to be Yuichi Tsugikoku who had killed CP0 some time ago!
Although it is said that Tsugikuni Yoriichi did those things with the support of "justice", their navy is not really such a simple partner of "justice".
If it weren't for that incident, Tsugakuni Yoriichi would have achieved such great achievements today, and any reward would not be a problem. But precisely because of that incident, the Navy could not reward Tsugakuni Yoriichi in a high-profile manner.
What kind of signal would rashly and lavishly reward Tsugikuni Yoshiichi send to the naval officers?
However, not giving rewards, or being too stingy in rewards, will also lead to gossip within the company.
He single-handedly destroyed the famous Hiku Pirates. If there weren't any impressive rewards, who would still die for the headquarters?
“Hehehe!”
“Hahahahahaha!!!”
Hearing Cyborg Kong's question, Zefa, who had been restraining himself for a long time, finally couldn't help laughing out loud, laughing very happily.
Under the gaze of Steel Bone Sora, Zefa praised without hesitation:
"Very good! Yunyi did a great job this time!"
"Shiki the Golden Lion! The Flying Pirates!"
“Hahahahahaha!”
Zefa thought of the attack that Jigoku Yoshiichi had set up and laughed again. Everyone in the office looked at Zefa. Seeing Zefa's expression, Kong Ganggu covered his head with a headache and could not help but urge:
"Well, his achievements are great, and no one denies it."
"Tell me, how do we deal with this?"
Zefa's laughter gradually subsided. He looked up at Kong Ganggu, crossed his arms, and said, "He will be promoted to lieutenant general. He will be allowed to form his own branch and be given the power to appoint personnel below the rank of major general."
"This should be enough to shut other people up!"
Zephyr's words made Kong's pupils shrink slightly. Is this reward small? Compared to the direct promotion of admiral, this reward is certainly small, but considering the achievements that Tsugikuni Yuichi has made so far, such a reward is reasonable and does not make the Marine Headquarters seem too stingy.
There is also a huge gap between lieutenant generals. This gap does not refer to the gap in strength, but in power.
There are actually many "honorary" vice admirals in the headquarters of the navy. Although they hold the rank of vice admiral, they do not have the right to form branches and appoint generals on their own.
As mentioned before, in the Naval Headquarters, the only people who hold power besides the Navy Admiral are the Admiral and a very small number of Lieutenant Generals with real power.
The reward that Zephyr mentioned for Tsugakuni Yoriichi was to allow Tsugakuni Yoriichi to directly leap to a powerful vice admiral in the Marine Headquarters.
Form a branch on your own
A lieutenant general is not considered overstaffed even if he leads a team of tens of thousands of people.
Moreover, if Tsugakuni Yoshiichi had the power to appoint major generals, his power in the navy would probably be surpassed only by admirals and marshals of higher ranks.
Even the power of the general was not much higher than that of Yoriichi Tsugakuni.
The power to appoint major generals and below, in the entire headquarters, the number of lieutenant generals who have such power can be counted on one hand!
After hearing this, Zhan Guo and He looked at Zefa. Their old friend was really not polite at all. The lion opened his mouth!
If Sora agrees, what's the real difference between Tsugikoku Yoriichi and an admiral? Besides not having to garrison Marineford and not having the power to appoint vice admirals, is there any difference between him and an admiral?
Garp also looked at Zefa deeply at this moment, chuckled, and agreed: "I think Zefa's idea is good."
"For such achievements, a promotion to Lieutenant General would be stingy!"
Garp was fanning the flames, while Zephyr looked at Sora calmly, waiting for Sora's answer. Meanwhile, Sengoku and Crane kept their mouths shut, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.
Waiting for Ganggukong's decision.
“.”
"Promotion is easy. For such achievements, there is no problem in giving him the rank of Lieutenant General."
"But the right to form a branch on its own, as well as the power to appoint major generals and below, isn't that too generous?"
"Tsugikoku Yuichiro's strength is naturally not a problem, but isn't he too young?"
"I know he's a genius, but military management isn't something you can easily master with just the word 'genius'."
"He doesn't have much experience!"
After pondering for a long time, Kong Gukong expressed his concerns. It was not because he could not bear to see Jigoku Yoshiichi in control of power, but simply because he was considering the overall interests of the navy.
A minor, not even sixteen years old, holds such a huge power. Ganggukong is afraid that Ji Guoyuan will not be able to control it.
Things like this should be handled by more mature middle-aged generals.
"Hmph, Marshal, are you saying that after such achievements, I'm just a lieutenant general in name only?"
"Military management?"
"No matter how good the management is, can they wipe out the Golden Lion? Can they wipe out the Flying Pirates?"
"Don't let the big guys in the navy get discouraged!"
Zefa leaned back on the sofa, crossed his legs, and said sarcastically.
No more acting. Zefa didn't even give face to Cyborg Kong, and said sarcastically.
Garp laughed out loud when he heard this, and whispered in agreement: "That's what Zephyr said!"
Zhan Guo and He looked at each other, lowered their heads again, and remained silent.
Ganggukong heard Zefa's sarcasm and frowned. He had no intention of scolding Zefa, but turned his head to look at Zhan Guo and He. Seeing the two of them lowering their heads, looking at their noses with their eyes and their hearts with their noses, he couldn't help but hold his breath.
These four guys have actually reached a tacit understanding?
Ganggukong withdrew his gaze and remained silent for a long time. Finally, he slammed the table and made a decision:
"Recall Tsugakuni Yuichi and hold a commendation ceremony at headquarters to award him the First Class Medal of Honor and promote him to Lieutenant General."
"We agree to allow them to form their own naval branch, but it must be in the New World and the number of members cannot exceed 3,000."
"As for the power to appoint major generals and below, that's too much power. Not only me, but they wouldn't allow it either!"
"It can only be the appointment authority for colonels and below."
"That's it, Sengoku. Notify the G-ICE branch and have Yoriichi Tsugakuin return."
"By the way, you are not allowed to come directly to Marinford. You must first settle in the New World G-1. When you arrive, Zephyr, you will pick him up. Do not stop in the Sabaody Archipelago, but return directly to the headquarters."
Having made up his mind, Cyborg Sora gave the order directly. After hearing Cyborg Sora's order, Zephyr and Garp did not show any disappointment. Instead, they stood up with a smile, greeted Cyborg Sora, and then left the office.
Sengoku and Tsuru also stood up and left with Zephyr and Garp.
After several of his subordinates left, Gang Gukong couldn't help but pick up the battle report again and flipped through it. Looking at the rows of pirates with bounties exceeding 100 million, Gang Gukong couldn't help but feel a headache.
"This kid."
"He was obviously a good seedling, but he was spoiled by those two bastards Garp and Zephyr!"
"Navy's Future."
"If the future of the navy is left to this kid, I'm afraid there will be no peace in this sea."
Gang Gukong stood up, walked to the window, looked at the night view outside the window, and couldn't help but sigh.
