Chapter 333 Akainu smiled
Chapter 333 Akainu smiled
Is this even a big deal?
Suddenly, his eyes lit up as if by magic: "Grandpa, think about it. Akainu and Aokiji are both arrogant and proud guys. So, no matter who wins or loses this battle, the loser will definitely not stay in the Navy."
After all, who can stand being subordinate to another person?
That would free up a vacancy for the position of admiral!
Therefore, you'd better work hard behind the scenes and find a way to push Vergo into this position.
"Once he becomes a Marine Admiral, our Figarand family will effectively control two Marine Admiral positions, one overt and one covert! That would be incredibly beneficial for our family!"
Upon hearing his grandson's words, Figalando Greenegu's lips curled up slightly, revealing a barely perceptible smile: "Of course I hope so too!"
However, the position of Admiral in the Navy is not one that can be attained casually.
It's different from positions like major general or lieutenant general. Even with my current power and status, I can't force someone to take that position.
This person not only needs to have real skills, but also needs to have extremely high prestige and a good reputation within the Navy. Otherwise, don't even think about it; putting aside others, even the Five Elders would have a hard time.”
Aini raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile, and said slowly, "Vergo meets all these conditions. He is not only exceptionally strong, but also has an excellent reputation in the Navy and is deeply respected by his soldiers, who address him as 'Sir'."
At this point, Aini paused slightly, seemingly considering his next words, before adding, "Recently, some unusual activity has occurred in the New World."
Kaido's Beasts Pirates and BOOM Pirates have surprisingly abandoned their attack on our G5 and instead turned their attention to the territory of the Whitebeard Pirates and the Red-Haired Pirates.
In order to curb their expansion, I have sent people to stop them.
As for Vergo, I sent him to Ghost Island.
I firmly believe that with his abilities, his performance on Ghost Island will surely cause a sensation throughout the world.
In this way, even if his meritorious service cannot directly promote him to the rank of general, he is almost certain to be at least a candidate for the rank of general.
If we secretly provide a little assistance, it's not entirely impossible for him to rise to the rank of Admiral.
Figarando Greene hadn't paid much attention to the topic at first, but upon hearing this, his interest was instantly piqued.
In fact, this was the second time Aini had recommended Vergo to him.
Previously, he hadn't paid much attention to Aini's suggestion, thinking that Aini's idea was too naive, or even fanciful.
Now that I think about it carefully, it seems that I did underestimate this Wei Erge.
After a long silence, he finally spoke slowly, "Alright, I agree. As long as he can achieve enough merit on Onigashima, I will find a way to secure his position as a candidate for general. As for the general's rank..."
At this point, Figarando Greengus suddenly chuckled, as if he were confident about what he was about to say.
"I don't need to push him; there will naturally be people who are eager to push him up."
After all, the power of our Figarando family is now at its zenith, and we have become the number one family in the Holy Land. Even the Five Elders feel immense pressure... So, all I need to do is secretly give it a little push and provoke those people a little, and this matter will naturally fall into place.
However, all of this depends on Vergo's own strength, so his performance on Ghost Island this time is crucial!
"And about that thing I mentioned before, you should know what to do, right?" Figarando Greengus changed the subject, bringing the conversation back to the main topic of the power transmission.
Aini nodded: "Understood! The Five Elders aren't important, what's important is the Marine Headquarters. It's best to make sure the entire Marine Corps knows about it."
Figarando Greenemon nodded in satisfaction: "That's good!"
The two chatted casually for a while, and then hung up.
.......
"Brubrub!"
The atmosphere in the naval office was unusually tense; you could hear a pin drop. Everyone was on edge, as if the slightest misstep could trigger a violent conflict.
Just as tensions were about to rise, a sudden telephone ring broke the silence of the room. This unexpected sound, like a cool breeze, slightly dissipated the tense atmosphere.
Everyone's eyes turned to the Den Den Mushi as if it were an important signal.
Everyone knew that a call at this time couldn't be trivial. Moreover, based on past experience, such calls often concerned major decisions within the Navy, especially the selection of the next Admiral.
Marshal Zhan Guo frowned slightly, a strange unease welling up in his heart. He didn't know why, but an ominous premonition surged within him.
However, he did not hesitate for long, quickly reached for the Den Den Mushi, and said in a deep voice, "This is Sengoku!"
The Den Den Mushi then emitted a soft buzzing sound, and the screen changed to Enni's appearance. Enni's voice came through clearly: "Fleet Admiral Sengoku, this is Enni."
Sengoku looked surprised; he couldn't understand why Enni would call at this time. Not only him, but Akainu and Aokiji also wore the same puzzled expressions.
However, Aini didn't seem to care about their reaction. He said bluntly, "I heard that you nominated Aokiji to the Five Elders to be the next Fleet Admiral?"
Zhan Guo's face darkened, thinking to himself, "Is this any of your business?"
Akainu, however, was secretly delighted, because he felt that Enni's electrification might be an opportunity for him.
As if to confirm his conjecture, Eni continued, "Fleet Admiral Sengoku, in my capacity as a candidate for Admiral, I would like to make a personal suggestion to the Navy Headquarters."
Although Sengoku was not pleased, since Aini, as a candidate for Admiral, had made the suggestion, he had no choice but to listen.
Enni: "I suggest that Admiral Akainu be appointed as the next Fleet Admiral, because although the current situation is favorable to our Navy, the impact of Whitebeard's final act should not be underestimated. Therefore, the Navy needs a strong-willed person to take the position of Fleet Admiral in order to suppress the next wave of pirates."
Akainu laughed!
