From the Navy Admiral to the Gotei 13

Thinking of this, Diarmait frowned and said, "Speak."

"If I could get your support, Admiral, and the support of the navy, how could I lose?" Smoker said in a deep voice.

"You mean you want our navy to help you? What's your reason?" Diarmait asked in a deep voice.

"I'm one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea. From an institutional point of view, I'm also affiliated with the World Government, and I'm a brother organization to the Navy. There shouldn't be any problem in asking the Navy for help, right?" Smoker said with a smile.

"Get to the point." Diarmait ignored Smoker's playful words.

Because Smoker was just talking nonsense. Does that mean the Navy should give their full support to one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea? Wouldn't Crocodile be laughing like crazy?

What's more, it's not convenient for the Navy to support Smoker in this way. Wouldn't that be telling others that Smoker has an affair with the Navy?

Smoker didn't dare to play tricks on Diarmait anymore. He leaned forward slightly and said in a deep voice, "I'll give 300 billion berries to the World Government. Can you convince the World Government to send the navy to help me?"

Diarmait was stunned for a moment. Oh, your idea is good.

Diarmuid then glanced at Queen Stusi, who pondered for a moment before saying, "It should still be possible. You know, Mary Geoise has been undergoing reconstruction since the incident. Rebuilding a holy place is a heavy burden on the World Government, especially in terms of funding. Speaking of which, the World Government has already withdrawn funds from me many times since the incident at Mary Geoise. I'm sure the same is true for other institutions..."

"That's right. The navy's military funds have also been temporarily withheld for a period of time. I guess they are trying to make ends meet." Diarmuid nodded.

"Therefore, the World Government should be quite short of money at this stage. If Smoker really offers such a large contribution to the World Government, it should be possible to persuade the World Government. Or, the World Government should also hope to establish a good relationship with a wealthy Shichibukai like Smoker. If the World Government issues a transfer order, the Navy can also reasonably participate in this war. I just don't know if it will disrupt your Navy's plan?" Queen Stussy said softly.

"Our navy's plan has been disrupted by this bastard. Now we have no plan at all." Diarmait glared at Smoker.

If it were before, the navy would definitely not be suitable to wade into this mess, and just sit back and watch Charlotte, Linlin and Whitebeard fight each other.

But now, the original plan of the navy has been completely overturned. The marshal has urged Diarmait several times to come up with a feasible new plan to resolve the situation in the New World.

Upon hearing this, Smoker said excitedly, "Since it's feasible, I'm going to bribe Mary Geoise. If 300 billion isn't enough, then 500 billion is. I don't believe they won't be tempted. What's more, this is also good for them. Once the navy can help me openly, I will join forces with Whitebeard and will definitely be able to kill Big Mom and Kaido..."

"Killing them won't work. We still need them to be active for a while. Didn't I just say that? We can kill them anytime we want, and you don't need to do anything. We just want them to live a little longer so that we can avoid the situation where the bow is put away after all the birds are gone, and buy time for our navy to prepare to escape!" Diarmait interrupted Smoker directly.

In order to kill Big Mom and Kaido, he still uses Smoker to jump around?

Nowadays, there are many masters in the navy, and they are the real overlords of the sea. As long as they are determined, they can definitely wipe out these so-called big pirates. It’s just that there is no need for the time being.

Smoker was stunned for a moment, then changed his words and said, "That is to defeat Big Mom and Kaido. By then, even if Whitebeard and I separate, with the full support of the World Government and the power of the Navy, I will be able to stand on equal footing with them. Moreover, by then, it will be a three-way balance of power. I will have a greater say in the New World and can help the Navy better stabilize the situation in the New World and buy more time. By then, the Navy's plan will be back on track, right? After all, it doesn't matter whether they fight or not. What matters is buying time, right?"

Listening to Smoker's words, Diarmait stroked his chin and remained silent for a while.

To put it simply, isn't it just about helping Smoker ascend to the throne again and help him become one of the Four Emperors?

If you think carefully about the scenario described by Smoker, it seems that it is feasible. Moreover, if he can really be on par with Whitebeard and others, he will be of great value to the navy. At that time, his power will also be able to take Amway Group's business to a higher level. The benefits will be too numerous to count.

At this moment, Queen Stussy smiled and said, "If you use the power of the Navy and the World Government to forcibly divide the New World with Whitebeard and others, everyone will look down on you, especially the pirates..."

Smoker didn't care at all. He waved his hand and said, "Do I need them to respect me? My reputation has been tarnished since I became a Shichibukai, right? Aren't those people secretly calling me a lackey of the World Government? Well, I'll show them how to be a lackey for once. Besides, why do I need the reputation of a pirate? I'm a fucking marine!"

Hearing this, Diarmait laughed heartily. "Yes, I appreciate what you said. Profits are the most important thing. Reputation means nothing to you. You're not a real pirate. Once we take care of them, you'll transform into a marine. I wonder how many people will be amazed. Hahahaha."

After laughing, Diarmait knocked on the table and said, "Since you have already made such a proposal, I will accept it for now. Later, I will report all these matters to the headquarters and let them consult and see if there are any major omissions. If the headquarters approves your plan, you can implement it. For now, you should start preparing first to avoid being rushed."

After a brief pause, Diarmait looked at Smoker sternly and said, "If you mess this up again, I'm going to kill you!" Smoker nodded quickly and said, "Yes, General!"

"Hmm," Diarmait replied, then smiled and said, "You've improved recently. You can even come up with this kind of plan?"

Smoker smiled upon hearing this and said, "Actually, that's not what I thought. I recently recruited a new subordinate in the East China Sea. Although his strength is not very strong, he is very smart." Diarmait asked in surprise, "Really? Who is it?"

"He's just a nobody. He was a small pirate before, called Crow. His bounty is over 10 million. He was known as 'Crow' in the East China Sea... These are the things he analyzed for me. Of course, he only told me to bribe Mary Geoise based on my status as one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea. He didn't know I was a navy officer." Smoker said softly.

A hundred ways. Chloe?

Diarmait immediately remembered this guy. If he remembered correctly, he was the one who caused trouble in Usopp's hometown.

There is no doubt that his strength is very weak, but he is said to have a very high IQ. It seems that according to the official setting, he ranks among the top in the world.

How did this guy end up under Smoker's command?

But think about it, Smoker is one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, so it seems reasonable for him to recruit some talents.

Therefore, Diarmait didn't ask any more questions, but simply nodded and said, "Just handle it yourself, don't let him fool you." "Understood," Smoker nodded, speaking seriously.

Chapter 273 Borsalino: I can’t retreat this time!

After finishing the matter that Smoker had caused, Diarmait took out a suitcase from the sofa, threw it on the table and said, "The Gold-Gold Fruit you asked for."

Smoker was a little surprised and said, "So soon! I thought we would have to wait a long time."

"Do you think I am you? You make people worry about you by doing something." Diarmait glared at Smoker.

Smoker smiled awkwardly, then said, "That's good. After this war, if I can reach a higher level, Tesoro should be able to better utilize the power of this devil fruit..."

"Don't let me down again." Diarmait nodded, but did not comment.

Smoker's ability to do things is still very good, and Tesoro is also a talent, so there shouldn't be any accidents. It was really unexpected that he caused such a big incident this time.

"Don't worry, General." Smoker nodded.

Diarmait took a sip of tea, then took out his Den Den Mushi and said, "In the end, I'll still have to clean up your mess."

As he spoke, Diarmait stood up and walked towards the window.

Stussy then looked at Smoker and asked, "Are you going to do something so big this time?"

Over the years, Smoker had cooperated with Stussy a lot, and their relationship had long been very close. He had long known that Stussy was absolutely a die-hard supporter of General Diarmait, so there was no need to mind her identity as a member of the CP agency.

Smoker said helplessly, "I don't want to do this either. Being on the sea, you can't help yourself. Ever since I started my pirate journey, I've been unable to give in."

"Oh, you don't know. When Diarmait came, he was furious and almost wanted to tear you apart." Stussy teased.

Just when Stussy was chatting with Smoker.

Diarmait also walked to the window, pushed it open and let in the cool breeze. At the same time, the Den Den Mushi call was picked up.

"General?" A simple and honest voice came from the other side.

"Is it really okay?" Diarmait asked softly, leaning on the windowsill.

"It's me." Jinbei responded quickly.

"It's almost time. How are things going over there?" Diarmait asked.

Jinbei was silent for a moment, then said, "I've hinted at it a few times, even tried to comfort him a few times, but Brother Tiger hasn't wavered at all. It's hard for me..."

"Don't explain so much to me, Jinbei. You know I just want answers. Time is running out, and now is a turbulent time. You are in the New World, so you should be able to feel how dire the situation in the New World is, right? That bastard Smoker caused me trouble. Soon, there may be a war in the New World, and our navy will also be involved. And I estimate that this war will be carried out under the command of Marshal Sengoku... Do you understand what I mean?" Diarmait said in a deep voice.

He used the title 'Warring States Marshal' instead of 'Warring States General'.

Jinbei naturally knew that Diarmait wanted him to quickly deal with Tiger before the navy got involved in the war.

"I understand." Jinbei said in a very heavy tone.

"Stop fussing around. If he doesn't want to, just get rid of him first. Tie him up and send him back to Fishman Island for imprisonment, or whatever. Anyway, I want him to disappear from this world, and disappear clearly. He must die in the hands of our navy. I still say that if you can't do it well, I will help you. I will tell Borsalino about this matter and ask him to cooperate with you. Try to do it as soon as possible, understand!?" Diarmait was afraid that Jinbei would continue to hesitate, so he spoke in a heavier tone.

On the Den Den Mushi side, Jinbe gritted his teeth and stamped his feet. He knew that Admiral Diarmait was taking great care of him by giving him so much time. If he couldn't do it well, when that guy Borsalino came, Boss Tiger would be dead.

"Yes, I understand, General. I will pick a time in the next few days to deal with Boss Tiger!" Jinbei said gritting his teeth.

"Well, I believe you." Diarmait simply responded.

Afterwards, he didn't say anything more to Jinbe, and soon, Diarmait hung up the Den Den Mushi.

After thinking about it for a while, he contacted Borsalino again.

At this moment, Borsalino was drinking tea in Punk Hazard's office.

A leisurely day is always so ordinary.

Just as Borsalino was considering whether to leave work early, the Den Den Mushi on his desk began to ring. Borsalino glanced at it, somewhat surprised, and said, "Diarmuid..." Then he picked up the Den Den Mushi.

"Borsalino?" Diarmait asked.

"It's me, General. Do you have any instructions?" Borsalino said in a strange tone.

"Hahahahaha, are we being so distant again?" Diarmait also laughed.

"This is my respect for the admiral as a vice admiral of the navy," Borsalino said jokingly.

After a slight pause, he asked, "You usually don't contact me when you have nothing to do. Do you have a task for me?" "I should say, I have a credit for you." Diarmait said with a smile.

"Are you taking care of me like this? Hehehe..." Borsalino said with a smile.

"The Marshal is going to move positions, you should be aware of that." Diarmait said softly.

"Of course, hasn't this rumor been circulating since Mary Joa's accident? What's the matter?" Borsalino asked again.

"It's just recently. The marshal is going to be promoted, and General Zhan Guo will definitely have to fill the position. The navy will be missing a general again. I have already asked General Zhan Guo before, and he means that you should fill the position." Diarmait said.

Currently, there are four people in the navy who can replace the admiral.

One is Borsalino, this guy is a veteran candidate for admiral, and he has been in the navy longer than Sakaski, needless to say.

Another one is Kuzan, who has also obtained the position of admiral candidate. In terms of strength, qualifications and other aspects, he is qualified to be a admiral.

However, this guy has been very low-key in recent years. He seems to be competing with Borsalino to see who is more inactive. He only becomes active when the Warring States general is trying to deal with him. It seems that he has no intention of becoming a general.

Another one is Gion. Gion is also a candidate for admiral. Although her qualifications are not as good as Kuzan and Borsalino, her strength is not bad. After all, she is a great swordsman with the Thunder Fruit, and she also has Diarmait's support, and her connections in the navy are not bad.

Finally, there is this guy named Kake. That’s right, Diarmait recommended him to be the candidate for general, but he refused out of spite. However, after a while, he still took up the position of candidate for general.

However, Kake is not as competitive as the three Gion people mentioned above, and his prestige within the headquarters is slightly inferior.

At the same time, this guy also had a lot of problems with Garp. As for himself, he actually didn't really want to become the admiral of the navy. The reason why he was willing to be an admiral candidate was that he didn't want to be too far away from Diarmuid, that's all.

Diarmuid actually also wanted Gion to be the general, but with Borsalino and Kuzan in front of her, it was difficult for her to compete. Once the qualifications, strength, and achievements of both sides are not much different, seniority is indeed very important.

Gion is a generation younger than them.

As for Admiral Sengoku, he was about to become a marshal, so Diarmait was not in a position to argue with him any more. Compared with Gion, Admiral Sengoku hoped that Borsalino could become the new admiral of the navy.

Because Borsalino had some relationship with Zhan Guo. This guy had served as an assistant to the general Zhan Guo for several years.

Once the Warring States general becomes a marshal, it will be easy to use Borsalino.

Borsalino was silent for a moment after hearing Diarmait's words, then asked, "You support me too?"

"How is that possible? I support Gion." Diarmuid said with a smile.

"I knew it..." Borsalino also laughed.

"But there's nothing I can do. My boss is going to be replaced soon. He supports you, so why should I go against him? Hahaha..." Diarmait said frankly.

After a brief pause, Diarmait continued, "Of course, if you are willing to withdraw, I will definitely be happy."

"I already withdrew last time, but I can't do it again this time. You know, I have people under me." Borsalino didn't hide anything and said it very frankly. . . . Requesting flowers.

Now Borsalino has completely become the leader of the naval neutral faction.
