Chapter 44: Chapter 44 Two people are ready to carry out the mission?
Wood has calculated that with his current military rank, if he works step by step in Impel Down City, it will take at least twenty years to be promoted to the level of lieutenant commander at the Navy Headquarters!
And this is still thinking in a good direction. If there are some problems with Impel Down City during this period, or if there are mistakes in their work, this time may be even longer.
There are not many opportunities to return to the Navy Headquarters, and there are even fewer opportunities to be promoted quickly.
"It doesn't really matter whether I get promoted or not, the point is that I am the most loyal person.
We have known each other for two years anyway, and although our relationship is not that good, as a former classmate, Gion-san needs help, and I, Wood, will naturally help! "
Wood's words were so impassioned that if Gion hadn't already recognized who Wood was, she would have almost believed him.
Naval Headquarters, Office of the Admiral
"Gion, are you sure that this mission only requires the two of you to go there?
Currently, there should be quite a few idle naval colonels in the Navy Headquarters. As long as I officially appoint you as squad leader, even if they have the same military rank, they will all listen to your command. "
Looking at the man and woman standing in front of him, the old man with goat braid confirmed with Gion again and asked if it was too hasty to complete the mission with this configuration...
Previously, Gion had been inactive for two days after accepting the mission. Sengoku also believed that Gion attached great importance to this mission, so he was extremely cautious in selecting personnel.
However, two days later, Gion actually selected a "third-class private" who was not even a junior petty officer from tens of thousands of outstanding naval generals?
"Yes, Marshal, this is my decision after careful consideration.
This mission does not require too many people in the first place. If there are too many people, it will only attract the attention of interested people and easily alert the snake.
Although Wood is a bit out of character, as his former classmate, I can vouch for his strength and there will be absolutely no problems.
And in order to take care of the reputation of the navy, this time we asked Marshal Sengoku to allow us to hide the identity of the navy. "
"For the Celestial Dragon people, they don't care who is responsible for escorting them, they only care whether the slaves can be successfully sent to Mary Geoise.
Hiding the identity of the navy also has two benefits for us. On the one hand, it facilitates our movements, and on the other hand, it helps the Celestial Dragon people escort slaves. It is not a just act. Using the identity of the navy to do things..."
Before Gion finished speaking, Sengoku nodded clearly, and his eyes towards Gion were full of admiration.
If others were sent to contact the Celestial Dragon people, Sengoku would have to worry about whether the navy sent would conflict with the Celestial Dragon people.
On the Gion side, they have even considered the negative impact this incident will have on the Navy.
With such careful thinking, coupled with his tactful personality, Sengoku really didn't think that Gion would act hastily, so after hesitating for a moment, Sengoku finally allowed Gion's two requests to move and hide their identities.
After leaving the marshal's office, Wood also looked at Gion next to him with disdain.
"I accidentally saw a dirty deal. I was obviously going to help the Celestial Dragon people become human traffickers, but I was afraid of tarnishing the justice of Haori, so did I plan to hide my identity and do it for the sake of convenience?
I didn't realize it before, but Gion-san, who is pretty and pretty, also plays politics and conspiracies in the same way. "
Gion had mentioned to Wood before that the mission was to escort, but he never said that the people being escorted were slaves of the Celestial Dragons.
If he had known that it was this kind of mission, Wood would definitely not have agreed to assist Gion even if he had stayed in Impel Down for the rest of his life.
Taking a closer look at the entire series of "One Piece", the existence that makes Wood feel nauseated and even nauseated the most is the so-called world noble Celestial Dragon.
Although some pirates do all kinds of evil and burn, kill and loot everywhere, when it comes to their evil deeds, they are not one ten thousandth as bad as these so-called world nobles.
Even if the so-called Celestial Dragons are called the root of "evil" in this world, it is not an exaggeration at all.
Wood doesn't think he is a very kind guy, but he has minimum limits.
He cannot disregard his own life and death and kill the Celestial Dragon people to eliminate harm to the people, but it is completely impossible for him to help the Tianlong people do things for them!
"Do you think I like those pig-like existences? Even if we weren't responsible for this mission, Marshal Sengoku would have sent others to carry out the mission.
The Navy has always belonged to the World Government, and even Marshal Sengoku could not refuse this mandatory mission.
And compared to other people accepting this task, why can't we be the ones who go, maybe we can help better? "
Hearing Wood's cynicism, Gion was not angry, but said such words with a subtle expression.
Since it was to carry out an important mission, the more combat power the better. Why did Gion give up so many colonels' combat power but insisted on just going there with Wood and himself?
Is the request to Marshal Sengoku to hide the navy's identity simply based on the reputation of the navy?
Wood was not a fool. After hearing Gion's pointed words, he finally showed a relieved expression.
He didn't know the specific plan of Gion, but he was only a third-class private, and he couldn't resist the orders of the navy marshal and navy captain. Since he was on the pirate ship, he could only follow the path until the end.
After Gion and Wood left the room, Sengoku took out a document again and started working, but soon he showed a melancholy expression again.
"I hope that girl from Gion doesn't go too far..."
Marshal Sengoku was a man known as a "wise general". Not only was he not a fool, he also saw things more clearly than anyone else.
Even after Gion made those strange requests, he could roughly guess what Gion wanted to do.
There is no doubt that Gion has the "just" heart of a navy, and she is also like Crane, knowing how to think twice and make arrangements before taking certain actions.
What Sengoku is worried about now is whether Gion will go too far, and then he, an old guy, will be asked to come out and wipe their butts.
Sengoku looked at another document on the table, which contained Wood's detailed personal information.
"Instead of choosing to work alone, I chose a third-class soldier. It seems that the Gion girl has quite a lot of trust in this kid named Wood."
