From the Navy Admiral to the Gotei 13

Upon hearing this, Karp's expression lit up and he said, "That's right, Bell is someone we all trust. If she becomes the store manager, we won't have to worry about corruption."

Bellmère was in a trance for a while before he came to his senses, with a slightly touched look in his eyes.

Don't be fooled by Diarmait and Cap talking about making money all the time.

But she knew very well that for people of Diarmait and Cap's status, Bailey's money and other things were no longer important.

With their power and status, this thing is within their reach.

These statements are all about taking care of Bellemere.

Of course, she wouldn't refuse such a good offer, so she smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll take good care of your money."

“Hahahaha…” Everyone laughed.

In this way, Bellemere had to temporarily put aside her dream of selling oranges and change her career to become a boss lady.

Just as Diarmuid and the others were talking about this, Sakaski's sturdy figure also walked over from a distance.

When he saw Diarmait and his group, his stiff expression was obviously surprised, and his eyes were full of confusion.

What the hell?

Why are Gion and Garp here?

That would be fine, but there was also this unknown woman. …

But this is not too surprising, but the question is, why are you bringing four little ghosts with you?

We are going to fight Kaido!

It's not a ship going to kindergarten, okay?

Can you be serious?

"Ah, Sakaski!" Diarmuid waved to Sakaski from a distance.

Although Sakaski was confused, he nodded and walked over.

"Diarmuid, what is this?" After Sakaski approached, 8610647,46 asked with some confusion.

"Ah, I'd like to tell you something. These are Lieutenant General Garp's two grandsons, these are Lieutenant General Garp's two granddaughters, and this is Belle-mère, the mother of Lieutenant General Garp's grandsons and granddaughters..." Diarmait introduced.

Sakaski? ? ?

What kind of introduction is this?

But as expected, Garp did not refute Diarmait's statement that Nami and Nojigo were his granddaughters, and even looked very happy.

Although Bell-mère was a little surprised, seeing how happy Garp was, she was certainly not stupid enough to deny this matter. If Nami and Nojiko became Garp's grandsons, they would definitely be the third generation of officials, and they would be able to walk around Marineford with their heads held high in the future.

Sakaski was stunned for a moment, then looked at Bellmère with respect in his eyes and said, "So you are Dorag's wife?"

Isn't this too fertile? These little ones don't look very big. Did you give birth to four children for Dorag in just a few years?

Bellemeier was stunned for a moment, then quickly waved his hand and said, "Misunderstood, I am the adoptive mother."

Sakaski nodded and said, "Hello, foster mother. Hello, foster mother."

He didn't take it seriously at all. After all, Dorag's identity was difficult to deal with, and his wife certainly couldn't come to Marineford to live openly.

So it is reasonable to get the identity of a foster mother!

Although everyone says that I, Sakaski, am a reckless man, but in most cases, I am very smart!

Okay, I see it but don’t say it out loud!

Sakaski didn't dwell on this issue for too long. He nodded to the confused Bellmère, with a look that said, "I understand. No need to explain."

Diarmuid and Garp didn't think much about it, and were still surprised why Sakaski was so easy to talk to today?

"These four little guys may all join the navy in the future, Sakaski, please take good care of them." Diarmuid said with a big laugh.

"Okay." Sakaski nodded.

Although his relationship with Garp is not very good, it is not that bad either. There is still the friendship. Moreover, as the offspring of Dragon, these four little guys should have good talents, right?

It would be a good thing if he could become a pillar of the navy like Drago did back then.

How could Sakaski say no?

Karp was a little surprised to see that Sakaski agreed so readily, and his impression of him also changed a little.

He thought about it carefully again and suddenly realized that Sakaski's style of doing things had indeed changed in the past two years and he was no longer as annoying as before.

He has matured too. …

"Tina, take Bellmère and the others back to Marineford later. You will be in charge of them for now." Diarmait made further arrangements.

After all, we are going to deal with Kaido, it is impossible to bring so many burdens with us.

Tina was not someone who didn't know the importance of things. Although she was a little reluctant, she nodded and said, "Yes, General!"

Chapter 197: Smoker Tobacco Company Plan? (Second Update)

Sakaski came alone and boarded Diarmuid's warship directly.

The so-called sky island does not actually exist only in the sky above Gaya Island.

There are branches all over the world.

The entire White Sea and the White-White Sea converge at an altitude of 10,000 meters. It can be said that these two types of sea areas exist above most parts of the world.

So what Diarmuid and Sakaski meant was to take off directly from Marijoa, go to the White Sea first, then sail on the White Sea, and then find Kaido.

The first time is a trial, the second time is familiar. This was not the first time that Diarmait went to the Sky Island. With his ability, the warship soon flew up to the White Sea.

On the deck of the warship, Diarmait stretched out his body, seeming to be in a very happy mood.

Diarmait really didn't take the fight to Kaido seriously this time.

Although Kaido seems to be very powerful, he is probably not at his peak yet. Judging from the strength of Charlotte and Linlin, who had fought against him before, Diarmuid felt that his strength might be similar to his own.

Even if it's a one-on-one fight, there's nothing to be afraid of.

Not to mention, he brought people with him this time.

Sakazuki, Gion, and Garp, none of these three people are easy to deal with, and they can all be Kaido's opponents.

Add Diarmait himself, four against one, wouldn't it be easy to defeat Kaido?

So he really didn't feel any pressure at all.

On the side, Sakaski walked over with a cigar in his mouth. He seemed to be in a complicated mood.

"Five-nine-zero" "What's wrong? You don't seem to be in a very good mood. Wasn't it you who proposed this outdoor activity?" Diarmuid teased with a smile.

Sakaski was stunned for a moment. What kind of outdoor activity is this?

However, Sakaski didn't pay any attention to Diarmait's teasing. He sighed and said, "I originally thought that this time, I would use Kaido as my capital to be promoted to admiral, but with the three of you here, I suddenly realized that this doesn't seem to be much of a capital. In this world, anyone else, even a useless Celestial Dragon, should be able to take my role and defeat Kaido... It's a bit boring for a moment."

Yes, if it was just Diarmait, Sakaski could at least be one of the two protagonists of this operation.

As a result, the difficulty doubled and was reduced to the extreme. Suddenly, it seemed boring.

Just like he said, if they really found Kaido, they could just replace him with some loser, and Garp, Diarmuid, and Gion would probably be able to beat the shit out of Kaido...

How can this be considered merit and capital?

But unfortunately, they all came to help, and it was difficult for Sakaski to refuse. It would seem too ungrateful. At the same time, it would be putting personal interests above the interests of the navy. He could not do such a thing.

Therefore, my mood is very complicated.

"Hahahaha, don't be anxious. Even if you can deal with Kaido this time, you still have to be sent out for two years before you can be promoted to admiral. Speaking of which, Borsalino does have more advantages than you in this regard..." Diarmait said with a smile.

Sakaski nodded and said, "That's true. Now that things have come to this, there's nothing to worry about."

That's right, even if he defeats Kaido, Sakaski can only be considered to have obtained a ticket to the next step. Next, he will be sent out to be a base commander like Diarmait did in the past to prove that he is more than just a fighter.

Only after he completes this process can he be officially promoted to general.

This is also the current standardized process of the navy. It is far from being like Fujitora Issho in the future, who can directly be parachuted from a civilian ronin to the position of admiral.

Compared to Sakaski, Borsalino has been stationed in Punk Hazard for several years, and his experience in this area is indeed more mature.

“Where are you going?” Diarmait asked.

"Baron, it is said that Kaido went there. It seems that there was an investigation about him before. This guy Kaido is very likely from Sky Island. His hometown should be in Baron." Sakaski said.

Diarmait???

Baron, he knew, was now called Baron, and would later become the 'Ruins of Baron Terminal', also an empty island, the place where Kaido played free fall from a height of ten thousand meters in the original story.

It’s just that this place hasn’t become a ruin yet. But I heard that the people living on the Sky Island moved away two years ago, so it’s only a matter of time before it becomes a ruin.

But...that's not what I'm asking?

"No, I mean, after dealing with Kaido, which base are you going to go to?" Diarmait asked quickly.

Sakaski finally realized what was happening and smiled, "I thought you were talking about Kaido."

"Hasn't this been discussed before? Of course I know he's in Baron..." Diarmuid rolled his eyes at Sakaski.

Sakaski didn't dwell on it. After a moment's thought, he said, "G-1."

"G-1?" Diarmait raised an eyebrow, then said, "I thought you would choose a base in the first half of the Grand Line."

"I thought about it at first," Sakaski nodded, but soon continued, "But I ultimately decided it wasn't suitable. Choosing the base in the front half is undoubtedly to focus on guarding against newcomers, while also prioritizing development. There's nothing much to say about these new pirates; for us, they're no problem at all."

Diarmait nodded, acknowledging Sakaski's words.

Indeed, things like supernovas are basically instant kills for people like him and Sakaski, and are not a problem at all.

"But when it comes to development, to be honest, I'm not very good at it. I can't even compare to Borsalino, let alone you. So if I choose to find a base in the first half of the Grand Line and serve as the base commander, I won't be able to make use of my strengths. In the end, the results may not be good. In comparison, the New World is different." Sakaski smiled and said.

Without waiting for Diarmait to speak, Sakaski continued, "The pirates of the New World are stronger and more to my taste. Also, as an admiral, you know better than I do that our navy's focus is always on the New World. Sooner or later, we will launch a major counterattack and hunt down those damned pirates one by one..."

“I see. It seems you have really thought this through…” Diarmait said as if he had figured something out.

"Of course." Seeing this, Sakaski said no more.

The navy will definitely counterattack the New World in the future. In the first half of the Grand Line, Sakaski was unable to display his strengths, but in the New World, his aggressive aura could not be concealed. Therefore, he may not have intended to prove his development ability from the beginning, but just wanted to further demonstrate his powerful offensive ability.

The naval bases in the first half of the Grand Line and the New World shoulder two different responsibilities. The bases in the first half and the bases in the four seas are mainly responsible for providing blood transfusions to the headquarters and are development-oriented, while the New World is the place for bleeding and is strategy-oriented.

In this way, at least before the navy achieves its ultimate goal of conquering the New World, Sakaski can use this to prove that he is an indispensable person.

If I work hard for a few years in the new world and achieve results in this area, then with this experience and achievements, I can be promoted to a general and no one will be able to say anything.
