Marine Headquarters.
This is a high-level conference room. Only Marine Generals above Vice-Admiral are eligible to enter the room to speak. As for Rear Admiral officers, although they are eligible to come in, they are only eligible to listen and record.
The room was quiet and there was no noise. In the silence, only the voice of Marine Fleet Admiral Sengoku could be heard slowly in the hall.
"Then, the reconstruction of the G8 branch base will be decided according to the above."
"In addition … …"
Sengoku pulled out another document, which was about the Ghost Hand Pirates. He pressed one hand on the document and turned to look at Doberman. He said in a deep voice, "Who can tell me what is going on with this Ghost Hand Pirates?"
Sengoku took over the position of Fleet Admiral not long ago, and he has gradually adapted to the work of Marine Fleet Admiral, but he did not expect that at this time, such a big problem would appear at sea.
Doberman stood up and bowed deeply to Sengoku.
"It's my fault, I am willing to take responsibility."
"Sit down."
Sengoku looked at Doberman and said in a deep voice, his eyes swept over the many Vice-Admirals present and said, "It is necessary to maintain Marine's face and prestige. If Marine loses prestige, the evil forces on this sea will become more rampant."
About Ross, after understanding the cause and effect, Sengoku was angry and speechless. A small hole was not filled up again and again until it became like this, the whole wall collapsed.
It is absolutely impossible to revoke Ross's bounty. Even if he reports it to the government, the government will not agree and will definitely order Ross's existence to be erased.
Once Marine loses prestige, the consequences will be very serious, and may even affect the entire sea. So in Sengoku's view, it is necessary to sacrifice Ross for the sake of justice worldwide.
Although this is somewhat unfair to Ross.
Naturally.
From the beginning when Ross killed the West Blue Branch Colonel, this so-called injustice no longer exists. Regardless of the cause, it is an unforgivable sin to kill a Marine Admiral cruelly.
When Onigumo's incident happened, Sengoku also heard about it. After all, a Headquarters Rear Admiral was defeated, but he didn't pay attention to it and just ordered Akainu to be fully responsible for it.
As a Marine Admiral, it is impossible for Akainu to keep an eye on a West Blue pirate, or even to go out to sea, so this matter is still handled by Doberman, who only approves the transfer request and documents submitted by Doberman.
The order to mobilize the G8 branch to encircle Ross was also issued by Akainu.
However …
Whether it was Doberman or Akainu, they did not expect the G8 branch base to suffer a crushing defeat. The Lieutenant General and three Rear Admirals were all killed. At this time, when he heard Sengoku's words, Akainu sat there with no expression, but the expression on his face was already very ugly.
"The problem is that we can't let a small mistake become a big mistake. If there is a mistake, it must be filled up quickly … Ghost Hand Ross is unscrupulous and cruel. In order to maintain Marine's prestige, he must be eliminated as soon as possible."
When Sengoku said this, he glanced at Akainu and turned his eyes to Aokiji and said in a deep voice: "Aokiji, you are fully responsible for this matter."
The incident that was originally Akainu's responsibility was transferred by Sengoku to Aokiji. Many Vice-Admirals present naturally knew the significance. Although they did not blame Akainu and Doberman, this was no different from a fierce criticism.
Akainu sat there without saying a word.
Doberman also kept his head down, not daring to look at Akainu's expression.
"…"
On the other side, Aokiji, who heard Sengoku's order, nodded and showed a rare serious attitude at the meeting. On the one hand, Ross's things are really bad. On the other hand, Nico Robin is on Ross's ship.
The things that should be dealt with have been dealt with. Although the blame was not on the surface, it was transferred to Aokiji. After looking at the people present, Sengoku was ready to end the meeting.
But.
Almost as soon as his voice was about to be spoken, there was a sudden knock at the door, and then a Rear Admiral rushed in, holding a newspaper in his hand, and said in a panic:
"Reporting, something happened!"
He sent the newspaper to Sengoku. Sengoku only glanced at it and suddenly felt a buzz in his head. Looking at it carefully, his fists were already tightly clenched.
In that newspaper, a whole page is about the Ghost Hand Pirates and Ghost Hand Ross. The most important question is the content of the report!
"A Pirate Born of Marines?"
Just the title alone had a hint of mockery in it.
"The Ghost Hand Pirates defeated the elite forces of the Marine G8 branch in the Kingdom of Elias and killed the generals of the unit, branch Vice-Admiral Dalmatian, branch Rear Admiral Roma, Hez, and Atheus."
"According to the previous news, it is not the first time that the Ghost Hand Pirates have defeated Marine's encirclement and suppression and slaughtered Marines. It is a miracle that a pirate who dares to confront Marines head-on and wantonly slaughters Marines can survive to this day. What made them kill Marines so crazily?"
"The time has to go back more than a year …"
Almost everything that had happened in the West Sea was revealed, and it took up most of the space in the book. There was no lack of mockery in the tone of the book.
Seeing this, Sengoku couldn't hold back.
Bastard!
He had blue veins on his forehead and one of his fists was clenched, and he wanted to find the person who wrote this news report and punch him to death.
At the same time, newspapers were sent into the conference room one after another. Everyone had a copy on their desks. Everyone picked up the newspaper and read it.
"… That's it, a Pirate Hunter, under the 'guidance' of Marines, finally became a pirate."
"According to reliable information, from West Blue to Grand Line, the Ghost Hand Pirates have never looted towns! They have never slaughtered civilians! "
"All those who fell under the banner of the Ghost Hand Pirates are ferocious pirates on the evil side, and … Marines who chased after the Ghost Hand Pirates."
"So, how far can this rising supernova go in the confrontation with the Marines? Let's wait and see. "
Bang!
Sengoku finally couldn't hold back and smashed his fist on the conference table, smashing a cobweb-like crack on the table, and his other hand almost tore the newspaper apart.
"Damn it! What's going on with this report, what's going on with this newspaper? What is the government doing over there, how can they let this kind of thing be distributed to the sea?! "
The conference room was silent.
The expression on everyone's face became extremely ugly, and Sengoku's roar made them all silent. As for those Rear Admirals who were listening, they were already sweating.
Something happened.
