People in One Piece are so good-looking - Chapter 423: Promoted to General, Head to the Opening Ceremony!

“Oh, this…”

Nuo Xia raised her eyebrows and opened the file.

Sure enough, the title that first caught the eye on the first page was three bold and black characters:

“Promotion Order”

“…I am glad to hear that Mr. Romanov Nosha has chosen to return to the headquarters. After evaluation and discussion by the Supreme Council of the World Government, because of his illustrious military exploits, glorious resume, and majesty all over the world, according to the evaluation, he is fully qualified to be a general of the headquarters…”

“Therefore, after Lord Wu Laoxing reviewed it and the Navy Headquarters notified him, we reached a consensus and approved the appointment as follows.”

“I hereby appoint Romanov Nosha, the candidate for the original general of the headquarters, as the general of the headquarters, codenamed White Dragon.”

“This appointment will take effect from the date of issuance of the document.”

“May 12, 1510 in the Haiyuan calendar”

“Supreme Council of World Governments (Seal)”

“Commander-in-Chief Kong (Seal) of the Armed Forces of the Army, Navy and Air Force”

…

The binding is exquisite and the layout is grand. In addition to the two red seals at the bottom, there is also a three-dimensional carving of the World Government flag pattern engraved on the top.

Full of cards.

It is not just a promotion order, but like a trophy and medal, it is a souvenir that can be sealed in a glass cabinet.

“Glad to hear.”

Nuo Xia curled her lips and saw Nami standing on tiptoes looking curiously. He stuffed the document into her arms and said, “Here, let’s play with it.”

“Thank you dad!”

Nami had long been envious of the three-dimensional carvings on it. After taking it, she excitedly rushed aside to study how to pick it out and play with it.

“Hey! Brat, that’s the promotion order to general!”

Warring States shouted dissatisfied, but then he shook his head and smiled helplessly.

It’s really messed up… Apart from that dead old man Garp, this guy is the only one who can take the general promotion order seriously, right?

“Oh, there’s also the ritual thing.”

“Ritual? What ceremony?”

“Of course it’s your promotion ceremony.”

Zhan Guo said, “Originally, according to the convention, a formal promotion ceremony will be held in the square when a general is promoted. Your situation is quite special, so this time, the headquarters also plans to make the standards higher…”

“It’s not necessary.” Nuo Xia frowned, “The war is about to begin. It’s important to prepare for the war. I’m not someone who cares about such things…”

“I know you don’t care about this.”

Warring States interrupted him, “But don’t forget, with your popularity and prestige, I don’t know how many people have been looking forward to your return to the headquarters. Make the ceremony more formal and grand, so that more soldiers can see it, and it can also be greatly improved.” Boost military morale.”

This is true…

Nuo Xia pondered for a moment and nodded indifferently, “Then do as you wish. I will try my best to cooperate. Sorry for the trouble, Mr. Warring States.”

“It’s a matter of duty, so what are you talking about?”

Warring States smiled, put away the remaining documents, and walked towards Nuoxia Courtyard.

“Hey, hey, what are you doing?” Nuo Xia stopped him quickly, with a puzzled face, “Didn’t you say you weren’t just here for a meal?”

“Ahem, it’s rare that you are finally back. The circumstances are special, so I have to grab your father and have a drink together to celebrate.”

Smelling the aroma of beef stew with potatoes wafting from the kitchen, Seng Guo’s expression remained unchanged, “Karp will come over later, don’t worry, we both brought our own beef this time, bringing a full thirty kilograms with us.”

Nuo Xia rolled her eyes angrily, but still got out of the way. To put it bluntly, she was still greedy for her mother’s cooking skills, and she was used to it!

These two stinky old men!

…

That night, the whole family gathered together, drinking and drinking, laughing and having a great time.

In the early morning of the next day, the most grand general promotion ceremony in the history of the Navy Headquarters was held in the square in front of the Marinevando Fortress.

Tens of thousands of naval elites were present to witness the entire process.

When Warring States announced the promotion order in public, under the eyes of people with admiration and adoration, Nuo Xia stepped onto the high platform step by step, took over the brand new white cloak of justice, and stepped into the vacant ranks of the three generals. Warring States personally wore the general for him. epaulets.

The epaulettes of the three generals are all yellow. Only the colors of the cuffs are different. Akainu is red, Aokiji is blue, and Nosha is light silver.

Paired with the white suit shirt underneath, Nuo Xia’s figure is even more upright and slender, and her appearance is unparalleled.

Doing nothing, just standing there casually is enough to make it difficult for anyone to look away.

In contrast.

Akainu and Aokiji, who were standing on both sides of the high platform, seemed a little overshadowed.

“I really regret agreeing to that old man from the Warring States Period…”

Aoki murmured in a voice that only the three of them could hear, “I haven’t seen you in the navy for so long that I have forgotten how handsome you look in uniform. I shouldn’t have come to support you. What happened to me?” Let’s see how it goes down…”

Nuo Xia was too lazy to pay attention to this guy.

Akainu glanced at Aokiji, and on his usually gloomy and serious face, the corners of his mouth twitched in a rare way…

——

same day.

The news that Bailong returned to the navy, officially took over as general, and would participate in the upcoming battle on the top, was spread to the world at the fastest speed through the deliberate promotion of the navy and the world government.

The whole world was instantly shocked!

From the first half to the New World, from the East China Sea to the North Sea…there are newspapers flying everywhere, and the public opinion is so hot that it even overwhelms the previous series of discussions on the war and becomes the hot topic of everyone in the streets and alleys. topic of discussion.

Seemingly in response to the Navy’s propaganda offensive, the Pirate Alliance in the New World quickly made some noise.

The Whitebeard Pirates announced that the forces of the Pirate Alliance have been assembled and are currently being integrated. Once the integration is completed, they will immediately launch a thunderous attack on the Navy headquarters, completely shattering the Navy’s delusion of ending the era of great pirates!

The world’s attention suddenly returned to the war itself.

In the final analysis, this war is destined to determine the future direction of the world, and no one can remain indifferent or stay out of it.

And now, the only problem is…

When will this war break out?

The Navy Headquarters quickly gave the answer.

On May 23rd, three days after the general promotion ceremony, the Navy Headquarters officially announced that a group of Impel Down City prisoners would be executed on time at nine o’clock in the morning on June 1st.

The list of personnel is not long, but each one is a heavyweight. The lowest bounty for more than ten pirates is 50 million beli, and they are all closely related to the forces participating in the Pirate Alliance.

Among them, there are also six Whitebeard Pirates headquarters crew members who were captured by the navy during sporadic battles in the New World.

The leader is the captain of the fourth division of the Whitebeard Pirates, Thatch!

As soon as this news was announced, the world was suddenly in an uproar.

Everyone knows that Whitebeard has always loved the crew very much, treating all his subordinates as his sons and not allowing others to bully him.

This time, the Navy announced the execution of six crew members, including a captain-level presence!

Whitebeard obviously will not sit back and watch this scene happen. This means that no matter how hastily the Pirate Alliance prepares and no matter how unintegrated their combat power is, they still have to engage in the battle in advance, and they must also give up their home field advantage and take the initiative to attack. Malinvando!

——

New World, aboard Moby Dick.

“The Navy wants to broadcast live to the whole world and kill Sachi?”

Marco punched the mast hard and said through gritted teeth, “Damn it, this clearly gives us a deadline and forces us to take the initiative to attack!”

“The conspiracy of the Warring States Period…”

Whitebeard held the newspaper in one hand and the wine bottle in the other, squinting his eyes and speaking in a low voice.

“It’s okay if you don’t get fooled.”

Kaido’s cold voice came from the side, “Don’t forget, old man with white beard, what I said before, the overall situation is the most important thing. If this war is lost, the end of pirates around the world will come.”

“If the Navy wants to kill them, it’s up to them. We will continue to follow the original plan. Starting from the G1 branch, we will remove all branches of the Navy one by one. They have a foundation and have to defend it. We have no such scruples!”

“What did you say!”

“Ignore Sachi and the others? What a joke!”

“Asshole! Say it again if you dare!”

Many of the white-bearded crew members on the Moby-Dick suddenly became furious and rebuked them one after another. Diamond Jozi even rolled up his sleeves and showed a fierce look. If Kaido didn’t take back his words, he would probably beat him up. Posture.

“snort……”

Kaido sneered, not wanting to pay attention to these guys at all, he picked up the wine gourd and raised his head to drink wine. Finally, he wiped the wine stains from the corner of his mouth and looked at Whitebeard sideways:

“Old man with white beard, you are a smart man, otherwise you would not have given up your so-called pride and face before and chose to join forces with me. You should know in your heart what is more important.”

“It’s very clear.”

The white-bearded man lowered his eyelids and spoke calmly, and the wrinkles on his forehead were carved into deep shadows by the dusk.

“Dad!”

“Don’t believe his lies!”

Marco and others were shocked, but the next moment they were interrupted by Whitebeard raising a hand.

“Which one is more serious?” Whitebeard looked at Kaido and suddenly grinned, “Do you still need me to answer this question personally? Kaido brat!”

“Nothing in this world is more important than your partner and son, gula la la la!”

He laughed loudly, stood up with a big sword in his hand, and looked towards the sunset sky. His eyes suddenly burst into a fighting spirit that he had not seen in a long time.

“Go ahead with my order. Everyone has a good rest tonight. Early tomorrow morning, we will march to Malinfando. We must rescue Sachi and the others before the execution!”

“Yes, Dad!”

A thunderous response erupted from the White Whale.

In the corner, Kaido spat, cursed “old madman” in a low voice, and raised his head to drink wine.

No one noticed.

On his flushed face, which looked like he was drunk, his eyes covered by wine gourds were also burning with a blazing flame. It was a strong fighting spirit that had not been seen in decades and was almost crazy…

…

Time passes day by day.

As the scale of the mobilization of troops by both sides became larger and larger, the shadow of war gradually shrouded the entire great route.

Even people who pay little attention to the world situation can feel that there is an extremely depressing and suffocating atmosphere in the air.

It’s like dark clouds are closing in on the city, thunder is roaring, and a heavy rain is coming!

…………

June 1st, early morning.

Dawn breaks in the east, under the towering headquarters fortress.

At a glance, the sea surface is covered with white sails, and hundreds of naval warships have gathered here on a large scale, arranged in a wing shape, as if to guard the harbor.

The momentum is majestic and spectacular.

The entire coast of the fortress is dotted with huge cannons with large calibers. Their dark muzzles point straight into the distance, which is full of intimidation.

But the most terrifying thing is not the magnificent fleet, nor the heavy artillery like a forest of steel.

But people.

Densely packed white figures filled the entire square. Even if you looked down from above, you couldn’t see them at a glance.

A total of 150,000 navy elites, all wearing white cloaks of justice, stood quietly and solemnly. This means that even the most ordinary person in the entire square is at least a lieutenant officer!

Looking at the entire history of the navy, such a spectacular sight has never appeared before!

The outermost layer of Crescent Bay.

Eight figures as huge as mountains stood side by side. They were the strongest among the navy giants, and they all had the rank of vice-admiral of the navy headquarters!

“Don’t be careless!”

A middle-aged male giant lieutenant general roared:

“No matter what happens, there are only the last three hours left, and everything will be over by then!”

“Oooo!!!!”

Along the entire harbor coast, a response like a roaring mountain and a tsunami was instantly heard. It was the sound that all the navy elites, at this moment, raised their swords high in the air, roaring and roaring.

If Nuo Xia were here, he would see many familiar figures, Tina, Kanser, Zhan Momomaru, Smoker, T Penn…

These young elites stand indifferently with cigars in their mouths, hold their swords tightly in their eyes with anticipation, or are slightly nervous, taking deep breaths to calm down…

On both sides of the high platform behind them, one by one the powerful lieutenant generals of the headquarters stood with stern faces and swords in hand.

Dauberman, Huo Shaoshan, Flying Squirrel, Ghost Spider…these are all powerful men who are famous all over the world.

The four figures headed by them are the three current candidates for the navy admiral, Kizaru, Peach Rabbit, and Tea Dolphin.

As well as the Chief of General Staff of the Navy Headquarters, Tsuru!

next moment.

Three figures came from behind, climbed up the steps, and stepped onto the high platform in front of the execution platform step by step. The shouts quickly receded, and countless people’s eyes focused on the three figures coming side by side.

The square suddenly returned to silence. Apart from the whining of the sea breeze and the waves crashing on the shore, there was only the sound of the three white cloaks of justice flapping in the wind.

“Akainu” Sakaski.

“Blue Pheasant” Kuzan.

as well as……

Considered by all the navy to be the leader of the three, and known as the most powerful general in the history of the navy——

“White Dragon” Nuoxia!

Among the three, Akainu had half his face covered by a white navy peaked cap, and his expression was gloomy;

Qingzhi tilted his head slightly, his eyes casual and dull;

And Nuo Xia, who was in the middle, had a confident smile on his lips, and his eyes swept downwards from time to time, making every navy who saw this smile begin to quietly dissolve the nervousness in their hearts…

Step, step, step…

The steady footsteps finally stopped, and under the eyes of countless admiring and awe-stricken people, the three of them arrived on the high platform.

There are already three empty chairs here, lined up, facing the magnificent Crescent Harbor below.

The monthly tickets are doubled at the end of the month. If you have more, you can vote…
