Chapter 24 Meeting Meeting

the next day.

The next day, at ten o'clock in the morning, in the conference room of the Navy Headquarters building.

This was a rather empty room. All the general officers of the navy were present. They sat cross-legged on cushions in order of their positions from nearest to farthest. In front of them was a low wooden table with teacups and tea bowls for drinking tea on it.

The Admiral of the Navy was sitting in the innermost center. As he waved his hand, an unknown vice admiral slowly stood up.

The lieutenant general, holding some organized documents in his arms, slowly walked to a wooden platform in front of Kong, with brigadier generals sitting upright beside him.

"Snapped!"

A report was slapped on the blackboard, and it seemed to be glued on it. The lieutenant general slowly told the appetizer of this meeting:

"This is a directive notice issued by the World Government. Originally, this matter was to be decided at an internal meeting of the Marshals and Lieutenant Generals, but considering some special factors, it is being brought out for notification."

“Now to the announcement:

This announcement was triggered by an insider planted by the Navy next to the great pirate Rocks, because the other party was planning to take action on an event planned by the Celestial Dragons.

Therefore, the World Government planned to set up a trap around this event, with the government's special intelligence organization and the navy working together to completely bury the great pirate Rocks there!"

As he spoke, the vice admiral posted bounty notices one by one on the blackboard. These were the pirates headed by Rocks:
Rocks, Wang Zhi, Silver Axe, John, Newgate, Charlotte Linlin, Shiki, and the monster rookie Kaido.

The bounties on those wanted orders range from over 2 billion to as low as 300 million, and all of them are big pirates who don't care about life or death.

"Papa!"

After knocking on the blackboard, the lieutenant continued:
“This operation is of great importance, but the navy only needs to dispatch three vice admirals and some grassroots generals and soldiers. Your only responsibility is to keep as many pirates as possible and comply with the orders of the World Government, no matter what happens!
No matter what happens!"

"That's all for the basic report. The bonus for this operation will be ten times higher than before! The three lieutenant generals have been confirmed, and the remaining generals who want to participate in this operation can apply to the marshal after the meeting."

After the first round of reports, the lieutenant general did not put away the blackboard, but turned the page like a book, revealing another blackboard underneath.

With the same action, a table filled with names was posted on the blackboard, thirty-eight in total.

"I believe everyone present has prepared this form. There are thirty-seven young men from the East Sea Nasdaq family who have joined the army, and one Sakaski who is already qualified to be a colonel or even a general."

As the lieutenant general spoke, he posted another table on the blackboard. The only difference was that there were numbers behind the names, which seemed to represent something:
"After yesterday's tests, the basic Dao power of these young men is between 70 and 240. They all have the talent to become officers!"

"Wow!!!"

Shortly after the words were spoken, the lieutenant generals and some major generals remained calm, but most of the generals in the entire venue were a little surprised.

It would be fine if only some people had such a high basic Taoist power. After all, most of them are like this. Those who can become generals are all geniuses. The only difference is the gap between geniuses.

But the problem is that thirty-seven eighteen-year-old boys all have such talent...

To be honest, most of the generals found it a little unbelievable! After all, there were only about 30 generals present! Of course, this was excluding those generals who were out on missions.

But this is also a bit of an exaggeration.

Daoli is a synonym for the standard strength of a vice admiral or below, which is recognized by the World Government and the Navy. The upper limit of Daoli is 10,000, which is also the standard strength of a vice admiral. After that, it cannot be measured.

And based on the differences in Taoist power at each age group, we can basically know a person's talent.

For example, the Dao Power of a normal adult human male at around eighteen years old should be between 5 and 10. If it can reach 20, he has the talent of a lieutenant, 30 is a colonel, and above 50, he can definitely become a brigadier general!
Of course, all of this is based on constant exercise.

There are thirty-seven young men whose Tao power is between 70 and 240. As long as they don't die halfway, it can be basically confirmed that they will be the backbone of the navy's next generation!
And these thirty-seven young men actually came from the same place!
"Quiet!"

Marshal Kong shouted in a low voice, and the entire conference room fell silent instantly. The words of the lieutenant general were heard again:
“This is also the reason for the emergency meeting. Marshal Kong intends to let you take these young men away and train them to be your successors. Of course, this is not mandatory.

After the meeting, a similar form will be distributed to your office, along with a copy of their personal information. The specific details will be discussed privately by the generals. "

"As for the last one, Lieutenant General Zefa, the Marshal hopes that you will train him personally!"

As he spoke, the lieutenant general walked forward with a special information bag, stopped in front of Zefa's position and handed it to him.

After receiving the information bag, Zefa did not open it directly. Instead, he saluted the marshal and the lieutenant general before speaking slowly:
"Leave it to me!"

…………

Time passed slowly, and the meeting officially ended around 1 p.m. The marshal and several lieutenant generals were still holding a small meeting, while the remaining generals slowly dispersed and left.

Back in my office, a form and a pile of printed documents were neatly placed on the table.

Many generals picked up the documents and started reading them, forgetting about being hungry.

They really wanted to know what was in this information, because it might explain why these children were so talented.

The first document, the second document, the third document...

It only took a few minutes to read the information in each document, but after reading each one, many generals would take out a cigar, puff out smoke from their mouths, and then sit in a chair in a daze.
