Chapter 417

“Then, who do you think is more suitable to take over as Marshal Marine?” the old star in a red suit and blond hair asked Akainu.

Akainu replied without hesitation: “If you are willing to believe me, Five Elders, I want to be Marine Marshal.”

As soon as this remark came out, the whole hall fell into silence, and the rest of the people looked at Akainu in surprise. They thought of this possibility, but they didn’t expect that Akainu was not humble at all, so he immediately recommended himself.

“Sakazuki, you are quite confident. Why do you think that you are qualified to succeed Marshal Marine? After all, the position of Marshal is different from Admiral. You are responsible for the Marine headquarters and maintain the tranquility of the entire sea.”

Five Elders have different expressions, but they have also known Akainu, so they recovered after being surprised and asked Akainu instead.

Akainu replied affirmatively: “I think I can do it.”

“It’s a good thing to have confidence, but some things can’t be done with confidence. Five Elders, I still think Kuzan is more suitable to become the new Marine Marshal. My reason is the same as before. Sakazuki has the ability, but he lacks the body. For the benevolence of the commander, he acted too extreme and left no room for it. I don’t think he can lead the entire Marine headquarters.”

Sengoku had long anticipated that Akainu would have such ambitions. In order to prevent Akainu from succeeding, he began to count down Akainu’s disadvantages in front of Five Elders, and did not leave Akainu with any affection at all. Shouldn’t appear on Sengoku, after all, he is the chief of Akainu.

Akainu said: “That’s really interesting. If you don’t take good care of me, I am not qualified to be Marshal Marine?”

“A soldier who doesn’t know how to respect the commander, I don’t think he can be an excellent commander.”

Up to now, in order to be able to build momentum for Aokiji, Sengoku also unscrupulously began to criticize Akainu. He is also an ordinary person. For the sake of profit, it is nothing to criticize Akainu.

“I don’t know what a good commander is like, but I think that as a Marine, at least you can’t let the pirates go, especially when you can.”

“Marine is going to fight the pirates, but you have to do what you can. Reckless action is a reckless behavior.”

“…”

Akainu didn’t want to quarrel with Sengoku, but Sengoku was ready to give up the position of Marine Marshal. He had no scruples at all. He just wanted to not let Akainu succeed, so he stared at Akainu, so that he had no choice but to fight back.

“enough.”

Five Elders looked at Sengoku and Akainu with great interest. As the two most prestigious people in Marine, they would actually behave like a man of the market. This makes Five Elders, whom he has not encountered for many years. All surprised.

But Kong roared furiously. Sengoku was promoted by him, and Akainu was promoted by him. Even if he is more inclined to Akainu now, he doesn’t want the two of them to quarrel here.

“Look at what you look like?”


After angrily, he said to Five Elders: “Five Elders, I think the position of Marine Marshal is still up to you to decide.”

After all, Five Elders is the face-to-face power of the World government. If they are appointed by them, neither Sengoku nor Akainu can refute it.

In fact, since the establishment of Marine for so many years, the competition for Marshal Marine has not been fierce, because before the previous marshal abdicated, he would basically choose the best Marine Admiral to train, and then succeed him after a few years. Marine went through the transition period of changing the leader steadily.

But Sengoku has a problem this year. Among the three Marine Admirals today, the most prestigious and outstanding is undoubtedly Admiral Akainu, but the problem is that Akainu is not valued by Sengoku at all, let alone focused on training. Instead, it suppressed.

It’s fine if it keeps going like this. After a few years, Aokiji will gradually come to power, and it will be natural to succeed Marshal Marine, but the problem is that Sengoku had to abdicate to the virtuous, but Aokiji has the prestige. Inadequate, and Akainu has made amazing contributions in the war, and its prestige is much higher than that of Aokiji.

At this critical moment, contradictions arise. Sengoku is unwilling to back down, and Akainu is unwilling to back down. The final decision depends on Five Elders.

Five Elders is made up of five people. Since it is five people, it is naturally impossible for everyone to have the same opinions. They started to communicate with their eyes, but they were unable to make a decision. Some preferred Aokiji recommended by Sengoku, and some preferred Aokiji recommended by Sengoku. Akainu, there is no consensus at all.

Finally, the old star with white straight hair and long beard said, “Whether it is Sakazuki or Kuzan, they are eligible to compete for the position of Marine Marshal, but we still need to discuss how to decide in the end, and we also need to consult. The opinion of the top Naval Headquarters cannot be decided in a short while.”

Immediately afterwards, he said a lot of words, the meaning is very clear, we need to discuss, you guys wait.



For such a result, Akainu had already guessed that Five Elders is indeed very powerful, but Marshal Marine is a very important position. Even if they are, it is impossible for them to make a decision in one word. They must ask the big boss behind the scenes.

When Sengoku and Akainu returned to Naval Headquarters, the atmosphere of the entire Naval Headquarters changed drastically. Because the news had spread, Sengoku was retiring from the position of Marshal and recommended Admiral Aokiji, while Akainu recommended himself. To compete with Aokiji for Marshal Marine.

A generation of emperor and courtier, so after the news that Akainu and Aokiji were fighting for Marshal Marine, the Naval Headquarters started to stand up from the top to the common soldiers. Some support Aokiji and some support Akainu.

Over the years, Aokiji has gotten many opportunities because of Sengoku’s support. However, because of his character, there are not many people who are loyal to him. However, Sengoku helps him build momentum, and there are many people in Marine who support him today.

But compared with Akainu, the gap is very big. Akainu became Admiral many years earlier than Aokiji. Not only is the youngest Marine Admiral, but he also has great military exploits and more powerful methods. In addition to the high-level hawks, There are also many high-level officials who are inclined to him. As for the ordinary soldiers below, they completely crush Aokiji.

Judging from the support of both sides, the two are not above the same level at all. If it were not for Sengoku’s support, Aokiji would not be eligible to compete with Akainu.

The World government’s delay in issuing orders has also caused the battle between Naval Headquarters to become more and more serious, and even affected the reconstruction of the Naval Headquarters base. In the end, even Kizaru, who wanted to help each other, was involved and didn’t know it happened. What, he actually started to support Aokiji, which caused an uproar in Naval Headquarters.

The noise of Naval Headquarters has aroused great attention from the World government. Now, Marine’s victory over the Whitebeard pirates is just the time when it became famous. But the position of a Marine marshal could not cause mutiny. So Five Elders immediately held a meeting and dedicated it. Asked the big boss behind them, and finally made a decision.

The decision of the World government was weird. They established Akainu as Marine Marshal, but reserved a chance for others. Generals of Naval Headquarters Vice Admiral and above, if there is any objection, can challenge Akainu once, but the chance is only once. If Akainu wins, he will naturally become the new Marine Marshal. If he loses, the person who defeats him will become Marine Marshal.

This decision seemed to many people to be very absurd, but after another thought, I understood what it meant.

When Akainu learned about this decision of the World government, he sneered. Five Elders, or the big boss behind them, should be inclined to himself, but he also wanted to beat him by doing so, so that he could understand that they could treat him. Mentioning as Marshal Marine can also pull him off the position of Marshal Marine.

“The Celestial Dragons clan, it’s a wishful thinking.”
