Chapter 152 Naval Turmoil, Empty Mediation

The previous chapter has been expanded to 4000 words.

………………

After arriving at Sora's office, Sengoku quickly reported the entire incident to Sora.

After listening, Kong's expression became quite solemn.

He then signed an order authorizing special operations without hesitation.

As Fleet Admiral, Kong's loyalty to the World Government is beyond question.

But this does not mean that he would regard the Navy as a mere tool, allowing it to be bullied by officials within the World Government.

Byron, a mere officer in the CP department, what right does he have to bare his teeth at the Navy?!

After receiving the order from Sora, Sengoku immediately went to the port, ready to personally seek justice for Zefu.

At the same time, Zephyr also arrived at the crescent-shaped port of the Navy Headquarters.

He's waiting here.

The pirates captured by the Land of Blue were sent to Marine Headquarters.

Dragon set sail with Sengoku.

Gazing at the imposing figure standing in the port square, he knew that the general who used to spare lives with his fists was probably no longer around.

Several hours later.

Ichisho from the Land of Blue escorted the pirate prisoners to Marine Headquarters.

Zephyr personally took up his sword and, in front of all the navy personnel in the entire port, killed all the pirates who dared to attack his family, one by one.

This scene deeply shocked the entire Navy Headquarters.

The former merciless admiral actually killed a pirate himself!!

This is no less significant than Garp declaring his intention to become a Marine Admiral, or Sengoku calling the Celestial Dragons idiots.

Such a upheaval made almost all the naval personnel realize at the same time that something extremely serious must have happened to cause Admiral Zephyr's drastic change in temperament.

However, Zephyr was clearly in a bad mood, so the marines didn't want to ask him directly.

Next, on the other side.

With the special operation order signed by Kong, Sengoku stormed into Darnell's noble estate and arrested him on the spot.

"Navy! What right do you have to arrest me! I am a count of the Kingdom of Kragana!!"

Sengoku looked at Darnell with icy eyes.

"You know best what exactly you've done!"

After saying this, Sengoku produced various pieces of evidence of Darnell's manufacturing and trafficking of drugs, and also raided Darnell's underground drug factory.

With all the evidence laid bare, even though everything Darnell had done had been tacitly approved by the King, there was no way to plead for Darnell at this moment.

Then, before the naval ships reached the nearest branch, Darnell committed suicide out of guilt.

To make matters worse, Sengoku, eager to return to his home base, mistakenly sailed his older warship into the Calm Belt, mistaking it for a newer model, which led to an attack by a colossal Sea King.

Darnell committed suicide out of guilt at that time.

Afterwards, the naval warships were unharmed thanks to the full protection of Sengoku, and all naval officers and soldiers were safe.

The only misfortune was that Darnell's body was snatched away and swallowed by a colossal sea monster...

Two days after Sengoku returned to the Marine Headquarters, Byron, the head of a certain CP organization, voluntarily submitted his resignation to the World Government.

Through Machima's investigation, along with the investigations of other couples, the Five Elders gained a detailed understanding of the specific details of the entire incident.

They accepted Byron's resignation, while warning Sengoku that it was all over.

Sengoku knew when to stop and ceased causing trouble for Byron's superior.

Therefore, apart from a few rumors circulating about him, Byron's boss was almost completely unaffected by this incident.

Those who deserve a promotion should be promoted, and those who deserve a raise should receive a raise.

Zephyr, upon learning all this, was both angry and helpless.

After all, the mastermind has already resigned, so what else can he do?

Is this really a fight to the death?!

He's a navy officer, not a pirate; he can't act so recklessly.

Therefore, Zefa also submitted his resignation to Kong.

"Are you really going to go this far?!"

Kong looked at Zefa with a complicated expression.

"Do you know that your resignation will cause new waves in this matter that has just been perfectly concluded?"

"The other party will think that you are resentful and want to find an opportunity to get revenge on them."

"And in order to avoid being retaliated against by you, the other party will definitely take the initiative to attack you before you can."

"If this continues, one of you or him will have to die for things to be truly resolved. Do you understand?"

Zefa stood across the empty desk, his neck stiff, and replied, "I'm just a soldier; I don't understand the intricacies of politics."

"After this incident, I realized that I have indeed wronged my wife and son a lot over the years, and we almost became separated forever."

"Therefore, I sincerely want to step down from my current position and spend the rest of my time with my wife and son."

Upon hearing this, Kong let out a long sigh.

Zefa was still unconvinced in the end.

But leaving it at that point is the best solution; if it forces Zephyr to resign as well...

Just like Kong said, it will only make the other party wary.

Of course, Zephyr must have meant a lot when he said that.

Let's say 50% to 50%.

It's true that they're dissatisfied, and it's also true that they don't want to continue performing long-term missions on the front lines.

After much deliberation, Kong said, "How about this, I'll write a letter to that guy in your name and ask him to give you more compensation."

"Then, I will use the charge of embezzlement and bribery to remove you from your current position as a general, keeping only your rank, and then transfer you to a second-line position."

"In this way, once you've accepted the money, it means you're willing to accept their apology, and they won't worry about you retaliating anymore."

"At the same time, if you are demoted and resigned, the other party can also feel a sense of relief."

"In addition, you will have enough time to spend with your wife and children after you step down from your frontline position."

What do you think of my suggestion?

Kong's suggestion did take all parties into consideration. Apart from the potential damage to Zephyr's reputation, almost all parties were able to obtain the benefits they desired.

Upon hearing this, Zefa knew that this was the best condition he could obtain.

Going any higher, that would truly mean killing the other party.

At that point, it will be a complete and utter fight to the death.

This is pure pirate behavior, something Zephyr would never stoop to.

And so.

This incident was resolved through Kong's mediation.

Zephyr successfully obtained the $2 million in compensation, but was also dismissed from his position as admiral for embezzlement and bribery, retaining only his rank, and was reassigned as the chief instructor of the Naval Academy.

Byron's superior, after paying 2 million Berries in compensation, successfully reached a settlement with Zeff. At the same time, because Zeff was demoted, he also gave up the idea of ​​further revenge against Zeff.

Zephyr's wife and children were brought from the Land of Blue to the Marine Headquarters by Zephyr, and he was responsible for their daily security.

As for the final Warring States period, he needed to write a self-criticism, reflecting on his failure to properly supervise the prisoners.

With this, the incident involving the attack on Zefa's wife and children has come to a complete end.
