The weather above Malinfando on this day was very good, cloudless, and the warm sea breeze blew the seagull flag on the top of Marinefando with a slight fishy smell.
This renovated steel fortress also has a warm atmosphere.
Warring States stood in his office, looking at everything about Marinefando through the window.
He couldn't help but recall what Sora had said to him when he went to Marigio two days ago.
"I didn't expect you to apply for retirement so soon." Kong shook his head helplessly, and stamped Sengoku's application with the seal he took from Wulaoxing.
"Originally, I was thinking of hanging on for a few more years and letting you take over my job, but now it's better that you retire before me."
Sora's joke hit Sengoku's heart. Does he want to retire?
Of course I don't want to. After being a marshal for so many years, I definitely can't give up on him in the Warring States period.
But he must retire. If he doesn't retire, I don't know what the navy will develop into.
"Brother Kong is joking. It won't be a problem for you to be active for another twenty years. It would also be good for Sakaski to succeed you at that time."
Warring States took the application that Sora handed him, and cheered up and joked with Sora.
Sora looked at Sengoku and sighed.
"You still don't support Sakaski as marshal? You know, if the next marshal doesn't have the support of the previous marshal, it will be difficult to start work."
Warring States was silent, and after a long time he spoke quietly, "Whether Sakaski is suitable or not is no longer important, nor is it important whether I support him or not."
"Kuzan no longer has any objections. At the same time, he has also reflected on himself and made a self-examination in front of the entire army and said that he will implement his own justice. There is no way that Kizaru will cause trouble to Akainu. Akainu's own It's even less possible for humans."
"In addition, the strongest force in the navy right now is that boy from Morn. His public support of Akainu means that at least three generals support Akainu."
Sengoku was still very sad when he said this. After all, just after the Akainu Aoji battle, a lot of effort was spent on promoting admirals and admiral candidates.
Qingzhi abdicated and automatically took the lead as the Commander-in-Chief, leaving two positions for Admiral.
One of them must be Morne's.
The other one is selected from those who are above the rank of lieutenant general in the entire army.
But who would have thought that this move would completely expose the strength of the people under Moen.
Peach Rabbit and Tea Dolphin, who were originally the most promising generals, were directly crushed by Moen's Ain and Shiliu. Yixiao also stood out among everyone.
The one who finally became the admiral of the navy was Yixiao, who was slightly more powerful than Shiliu!
Ever since, the three generals of the navy have taken shape again.
[Kizaru] Porusalino, still unchanged.
[Fujitora] Yixiao, a user with the gravity fruit ability, is proficient in two-color haki, especially the color of seeing and hearing, and can even sense meteorites in the universe.
That move of meteorite falling from the sky was the last straw to defeat Shiliu.
[Golden Crow] Moen, a person with the ability to reproduce the fruit, has triple abilities, and his strength is unfathomable.
A move of Golden Crow's explosive flames can even threaten the lives of the four emperors.
Moen's code name was originally thought to be wolf. After all, his team has the title of Crazy Wolf.
It's a pity that the wolf doesn't fit Morn's appearance. After all, after Akainu was promoted to marshal, Morn could only be responsible for the general's appearance.
He alone raised the average appearance of the admiral.
In the end, he took the word "Golden Crow" from his strongest move as the code name.
Fortunately, this world does have the existence of the legend of the Golden Crow, which means that there is the existence of the phantom beast species called the Golden Crow Fruit.
It's a pity that when I read through the history books, I didn't see any examples of the Golden Crow fruit appearing.
The number of general candidates has also been expanded to five for the first time!
[Momotu] Gion, proficient in two-color domineering, swordsmanship, and taijutsu!
[Tea Dolphin] Extra plan, proficient in two-color domineering and physical skills!
[Molang] Xi Liu, who is proficient in two-color domineering and has Momo fruit ability, uses a demon sword named: Seven Stars!
[White Fox] Ain, who is proficient in two-color domineering, has fully developed the retrograde fruit, and holds Morn's accompanying sword: Qingxue!
[Blue Sparrow] Lairila, who is proficient in the Haki of Wisdom and Color, and the strongest natural Devil Fruit with the Thunder Fruit ability!
There are also Samoreka and others whose strength has reached the level of lieutenant general. Sengoku's eyes turned red when he saw the list.
If this group of people were discovered when he was the marshal, what would happen to the Four Pirate Emperors?
Just crush it and that's it!
Unfortunately, except for Ain, none of Morn's men joined the battle when they reached the top.

Pulling his thoughts out of his memories, Warring States lit up a cigarette for the first time. As a never-smoker, he suddenly felt melancholy and wanted to use tobacco to calm it down.
"Cough cough cough!"
As a Sengoku who had never smoked before, he still choked on the first puff, but his strong physical fitness allowed him to immediately adapt to the feeling of tobacco entering his lungs.
"Huh~ The navy from now on will depend on you."
Warring States stood in front of the window, watching a group of neatly arranged navy patrols complete, and when they were dismissed, they headed to the cafeteria talking and laughing.
It's already noon, and it's time to eat.
Warring States turned around and began to pack his luggage. After all, he had to make room for the new marshal.
After today, he, Sengoku, will no longer be the Admiral of the Navy, and the Admiral of the Navy will be officially handed over to Acting Marshal Akainu.
After Akainu completes the tasks assigned to him by the World Government, he will be the true marshal of the navy.
Slowly putting a tea set into the box, Warring States paused for a moment, thinking about how many tea cups Garp had broken, and he must pay for it!
Turning around and taking down the inscription on the wall, Warring States paused for a moment. This inscription was a plaque of justice that he wrote with great enthusiasm when he was just promoted to marshal of the navy.
"Should we leave it to Sakaski? Forget it, given his personality, he won't want it."
Warring States was silent for a moment, then took off the inscription on the plaque, folded it carefully and put it into the box.
After packing up some gadgets, Warring States walked to his desk and picked up a photo frame.
Inside is a group photo.
There was the stoic Cyborg Sora, the playful naval hero Garp, the gentle Crane, the slightly grinning Zefa, and Akainu, Aokiji, and Kizaru who had already shown their talents at that time... ··
Things have changed and people have changed. This is a photo taken when he was promoted to marshal.
It's a pity that now those who are retired are retired and those who are promoted are promoted. It is not easy to get them together again.
The background is the port of Marinefando, which now no longer has the same flavor as before.
Da!
Instead of putting the photo in the box, Seng Guo flipped the photo frame upside down and placed it on the table.
This is the marshal's office. That is a photo of him with the previous marshal and the next marshal. Leave it to Sakaski.
"This is the marshal's treasure... Sakaski, did I do something wrong?"
Warring States stroked the photo frame twice, and the corners of his eyes were a little moist.
How he wanted to sit in this position for a few more years, not for fame and fortune, but just for the words in his box.
Justice reigns over the world!
Crunch!
The door was pushed open, and the silver-haired Staff Officer He walked in. He looked around twice and then said with a smile: "Why, no one can help?"
Warring States turned around and showed a smile, "Haha, I gave them a holiday. After all, if Sakakis takes office, they will probably be busy, and they won't have any holidays by then."
"What, Ahe, why did you come to see me? I am still the marshal today. If you want to sign anything, bring it over. I signed everything."
Warring States behaved very cheerfully and showed no signs of disappointment at all.
But Staff Officer He shook his head, came over to help Warring States pick up a can of tea that he forgot on the coffee table, put the tea into the box and said quietly, "I just came to see you..."
Warring States paused in his movements and shook his head with a wry smile.
"It's really...the gentle Ahe..."
Crunch~~
The door was closed, and the sun shone in the office, but there was no warmth.
Maybe, after a while, this office will return to its previous appearance.
It's just that the person who yelled in the office will be replaced.
