Chapter 78 Sophistry

Sora looked at Sakazuki and asked, "Sakazuki, you are a junior that I am very optimistic about. You have embezzled trophies privately. This is a serious violation of military discipline. If you really do it, if you admit it now, I will deal with it lightly. But if you do, but you don't admit it, after you find the evidence, you will have to pay a premium."

Listening to the empty tone, obviously he also doubted Sakazuki, hoping that Sakazuki would take the initiative to admit it.

But Sakazuki still said firmly: "I can't admit what I haven't done."

Zephyr wanted to speak again, but Sora stopped him, and then said, "Since you said that, then we will put this matter aside for the time being and talk about another matter."

"Regarding the Whitebeard Pirates, although you rescued Harrington and others, Marine suffered a huge loss and suffered a reputational damage. How do you explain this matter?"

As soon as the empty voice fell, a Marine Vice Admiral stood up and said loudly: "The marshal is right. This matter is really lacking in consideration. The G1 branch is an important force for Marine to deter the New World pirates. Now G1 The branch's withdrawal from New World is a great loss for us. It has caused us Marine to suffer a huge public opinion. This is the first time that Marine has faced such a terrible defeat by a pirate in so many years."

Sakazuki turned his head and looked at this person. This person is also the Marine Vice Admiral of the older generation. He is more than 40 years old. However, he knows very well that this person has spoken out and directed him against him. This is entirely because of Zephyr. The person is Vice Admiral from the Zephyr family.

Sakazuki asked faintly, "Then what should I do as you want? Regardless of the lives of Harrington Vice Admiral and others, and fight with the Whitebeard Pirates? Or should I humbly beg the pirates and let They let Harrington Vice Admiral? Or I moved out Naval Headquarters and moved out of World government, so Whitebeard would compromise? If it's you, tell me, what should I do?"

"I."

The person was speechless, Sakazuki spoke very quickly, and there was almost no way to refute it, because neither one was possible.

Seeing that the person stopped speaking, Sakazuki said to Sora again: "Marshal, this matter is indeed my responsibility. I didn't think about it so much at the time. I just wanted to rescue Harrington Vice Admiral."

"As a veteran, Vice Admiral Harrington has made great contributions to our Naval Headquarters. He has been fighting the pirates all his life. The pirate died in humiliation, forgive me for not being able to do this."

"Furthermore, the G1 branch has been defeated by the Whitebeard Pirates, the foundation has been damaged, and it has already suffered heavy losses. At this time, I don't think we should continue to stay in New World. The rapid retreat is the best choice. As for us Marine Is reputation damage more important than the lives of Harrington Vice Admiral and others?"

Listening to Sakazuki talking so much at once, all the people present were serious looking, especially the older veterans. They all agreed with Sakazuki's words, especially Marine Marshal Sora.

Harrington was his former lieutenant, and the relationship between the two of them was naturally closer than the others, so no matter what else, he was very grateful for Sakazuki to be able to save Harrington, but Sakazuki did not report to the headquarters and decided privately. Let the G1 branch withdraw from New World. This is indeed a surpass, and it cannot be suppressed at all.

At this time, Harrington Vice Admiral, who had recovered and was also sitting in the meeting room, suddenly stood up. He looked at everyone and spoke slowly.

"I have the right to talk about this matter. I was there when Sakazuki confronted Whitebeard and negotiated. Sakazuki did not lose the face of our Marine. Everything is to save me. If I have to be held accountable for this, I am willing. It's no problem to take all the responsibilities for him and to apologize with death. After all, this matter was caused by me."

When the veteran Harrington said this, most of the people present nodded secretly. It is true that Sakazuki cannot be blamed for this matter. At most, it can only be regarded as without prior consultation, but the situation at the time, change to other As far as people are concerned, it is impossible to do better than Sakazuki.

Sora hurriedly comforted: "Harrington, sit down and no one knows that something like that will happen. Whitebeard is the number one pirate in the New World. It is not your fault that you are defeated in his hands. As for Sakazuki's Responsibility, we haven't finished discussing it yet."

Harrington resolutely said: "Marshal, Sakazuki saved my life, and my subordinates, so no matter what decision everyone makes, I am willing to bear all the responsibilities and punishments, but you are not punished. Sakazuki, because he is really an excellent soldier, with Admiral style, is the future of our Marine."

Say good things to Sakazuki, not only because Sakazuki saved his life, but because he saw Sakazuki's ability, how many people in Naval Headquarters can face the entire Whitebeard Pirates and still talk and laugh. Freely, finally forced Whitebeard to compromise?

Therefore, Harrington is willing to take all the responsibilities. First, he is grateful, but more importantly, he is optimistic about Sakazuki, a veteran who has fought with Pirates all his life, and wants to see Marine's future glory.

Sakazuki himself was also infected by Harrington. He solemnly said: "Harrington Vice Admiral, you are also a victim of this incident, and it is true that I did not comprehensively do it. The responsibility is my own."

Because of this incident, Harrington retreated all his power, and he will only be a veteran guarding Naval Headquarters in the future, so he really does not want this veteran to take responsibility for this matter.

"I..."

As soon as Harrington Vice Admiral was about to speak, Sora spoke first: "Okay, Harrington, you don't need to say, sit down, this matter still depends on everyone's decision."

Then he glanced at everyone present and asked: "We, Naval Headquarters, are not talking in words. Today, we are gathering everyone here. It is not just watching and not talking. Anyone who has any thoughts can say it, Sengoku, you Say."

Zephyr would obviously target Sakazuki, so Sora did not ask him, but instead asked Sengoku.

Sengoku said calmly: "I have done meritorious services, but in my opinion, meritorious deeds are greater than demerits. After all, the hostages can be rescued from Whitebeard without any substantial loss. This is an amazing thing in itself. If it is me, it may not be possible to achieve this level."

Kong nodded, and then asked Zephyr, "Zephyr, what do you think?"

Zephyr looked ugly. He said, "Gong is gong, passing is passing. Marine is a disciplined force. If anyone violates discipline in this way, what military discipline is there for Naval Headquarters in the future?"

"What Zephyr said makes sense." Sora nodded, and then asked other people: "You also talk about your own thoughts."
