From the Navy Admiral to the Gotei 13

!Qun Ling directly chose to support Smoker to take the throne.

Five vice admirals, including Jinbei, Hancock, Vergo, Spider-Man, and Dalmesia, assist Smoker in taking charge of the New World's naval affairs.

There is a reason for this too.

When it comes to experience in commanding large-scale battles, Jinbe, Hancock, Vergo, Spider, Dalmesia and others actually don't have much experience.

It’s not that they have never fought a war, but they have never led such a large-scale war alone.

This is normal. According to the navy's system, in such a war situation, there must be a candidate for admiral to take charge of the overall situation.

The remaining lieutenant generals are responsible for local wars.

It takes time and experience to be able to command a war of this scale.

Before this, they had never had such an opportunity. Usually when this situation occurred, Diarmuid, Sakaski, Borsalino, Gion, Kuzan, Kake and others, and even big guys like Garp, Sengoku, and the Chief of Staff, would appear.

Don’t blame anything else, just blame the fact that there are too many talented people in the navy.

There are pros and cons, and to a certain extent, it does suppress the opportunities of powerful lieutenant generals to participate in commanding on this scale.

So they don't have much experience with this.

But Smoker is different. He is one of the Four Emperors in the New World, and he was the commander in several large-scale battles before, such as joining forces with Whitebeard to deal with Charlotte, Linlin and Kaido.

Diarmait and the others were just wandering around on the boat and then had a fight.

The deployment of the war and the mobilization of the troops were all handled by Smoker alone.

So, fifteen years of experience is no joke.

However, it cannot be said that he is particularly skilled. After all, he commanded pirates before, and now he has to command the navy, so he left some vice admirals to assist him.

In this way, there shouldn't be any problems when the two are combined.

Smoker also knew that this was the intention of the two generals, Diarmuid and Sakaski, to push him to the position.

After all, although he had been an undercover agent for fifteen years and had made great contributions, he still lacked an opportunity to truly establish his position in the navy.

As soon as I came back, the opportunity came.

The two generals, Diarmuid and Sakaski, fully supported him, which made him feel very happy.

Ever since Sakaski arrived in the New World a few months ago, the New World's naval defense line has been in a state of combat readiness.

Therefore, matters related to intelligence confidentiality levels have all been raised to the highest level.

Sakaski is a very ruthless guy. His hawkish attitude is not only directed externally, but also internally to a certain extent.

So the intelligence blockade was done quite well.

Diarmait has been here for so many days, but the outside world doesn't know he is here. They think he is in a meeting in Mary Geoise.

Smoker and others took over the defense of G-1, so it was impossible for such important information about the change of leadership to leak out.

To the outside world, the New World Navy is still in a state of inaction, as if waiting for the people on Mary Geoise's side to sort out everything before responding.

Little did they know that major changes had already taken place within the New World Navy.

This is normal. In fact, most people, even strategic experts from various countries and insightful experts in the private sector, think that the Navy’s actions are absolutely correct.

Because this approach is very stable.

As long as things in Mary Geoise are settled, the Navy will be able to take advantage of the momentum and crush the entire New World with dignity.

This is the right way, it is steady and has a very high winning rate.

Therefore, the New World Navy's inaction and lack of reaction did not seem strange, but rather seemed natural.

Smoker was arranged to take over the defense here, and then Sakaski and Diarmait guided him for a few days, allowing him to get started quickly.

Time quietly came to the beginning of 1517 in the Haiyuan calendar.

After all, another year passed by in a hurry.

Over a certain sea area in the New World, on a small naval assault ship, Diarmuid and Sakaski were sitting on the deck, cross-legged on the ground without even a stool.

The assault ship was not big and carried more than 20 navy personnel to be responsible for its normal operation. There were no other extra troops.

There was some snow in the sky, which meant that Diarmait and his companions had entered the climate environment of Winter Island.

The entire ship was enveloped by Diarmait's gravity ability, so it was flying very steadily in the sky, but because it was a bit high, it seemed a little colder.

Sakaski doesn't care. He is a magma man and there is no way he is afraid of the cold.

Diarmait was a strong man, and he was immune to cold and heat.

However, no one was serious about this matter, so Diarmuid and Sakaski were sitting cross-legged on the deck. There was some snow around them, and both of them were dressed in winter clothes.

He was wearing a fur cloak and a mink hat on his head. What was extremely inconsistent was that under the cloak he was wearing a short-sleeved shirt and his pants were very thin, not bulky at all.

It's like Diarmait dressed like this just to look like he was spending the winter, but it's actually useless.

But Diarmait was a man of high decency and handsome. He was not the kind of feminine handsomeness or pretty boy handsomeness, but the kind of handsomeness that was similar to the handsomeness of Zhao Yun and Ma Chao in some games in his previous life.

Heroic!

Therefore, this incongruous winter outfit actually made Diarmait look different and chic, like a hero from the north, and even more heroic.

Sakaski is similar. He is actually not ugly. He has a sturdy build and a tough look. He is wearing some half-inappropriate winter clothes, but he looks quite stylish.

The two men sat cross-legged, less than a meter apart. On the deck before them lay some food and drinks, which, despite the biting cold, still emitted a faint white smoke. Diarmuid took a sip from the wine bowl and smacked his lips, saying, "The wine's cold."

Sakaski was chewing a kebab in his hand. After hearing Diarmait's words, he casually raised his hand and grabbed the bottle of wine beside him. White smoke passed through his hand and he said, "Well, I see you invited me here to enjoy the snow scenery. I'm afraid you are impressed by my ability and want me to warm the wine for you?"

"Hahahaha, so, when you go out in summer, take Kuzan with you, and when you go out in winter, take you with you. You can drink cold drinks and warm wine." Diarmait laughed.

Sakaski didn't care about Diarmait's shameless behavior of using him as a 'heater'.

After swallowing the barbecue in his mouth, he picked up the wine glass and watched a snowflake fall into the wine bowl and disappear in an instant. His expression was a little emotional. Then he raised the wine bowl and gestured to Diarmait.

Diarmait did not put on airs, and the two of them could be considered good friends and steadfast comrades.

So he also took the wine bowl and clinked it with Sakaski.

"Happy New Year," Sakaski said suddenly.

That’s right, today is January 1517, 1 in the Haiyuan calendar.

This world made up of oceans and islands is culturally diverse and prosperous. I heard that there is a Spring Festival in the Kingdom of Flowers.

Anyway, the standards for "New Year" are different in different islands and even countries.

But in general, January 1st is widely recognized as the 'New Year'.

Diarmait had no intention of changing these things, so he just followed the local customs.

So, following Sakaski's words, he smiled and nodded, saying, "Happy New Year."

A new year, a new day, and actually spending time with Sakaski high in the sky, enjoying the snow and drinking wine, was quite unexpected for Diarmait. He had never imagined such a thing would happen. As the warm wine flowed down his throat, bringing a warm feeling to his body, he exhaled a breath of cold air and said happily, "I hope this new year will bring a new atmosphere." "It's inevitable. This battle will be won. The world's structure will also be reshuffled this year, becoming more stable. A new era has arrived," Sakaski said with certainty.

There was great confidence in his words.

After chatting about some other things, Sakaski said again: "After this battle, are you really going to retreat to the second line?" "Why lie about such a thing?" Diarmuid said as a matter of course.

Sakaski nodded when he heard this, but his expression was a little lonely.

"Why? Are you reluctant?" Diarmait asked with a smile.

Perhaps Diarmuid didn't know that he actually held a very high position in Sakaski's heart.

If it weren't for Diarmait's subtle influence over the years, Sakaski's interpersonal relationships in the navy would have been quite bad.

Things are much better now. He has a very close relationship with some big guys like Garp, especially Garp. Because of Ace's matter, the two of them are very good friends.

So Sakaski is not disliked by everyone in the navy. On the contrary, he has many friends.

But Sakaski has always felt that Diarmuid is his best friend in the navy.

Even though their positions were somewhat incompatible, they had previously competed together for the position of marshal.

But that is all official business, and 2.9 personal relationships are personal relationships.

Sakaski felt a little uncomfortable knowing that his good friend was leaving.

Moreover, Sakaski is a very proud man. He feels that among the current generation of pillars of the navy, only Diarmuid is his rival, and an opponent with more advantages.

If Diarmait really stopped playing, he would feel a bit lonely as a master.

Borsalino is an old scoundrel, and as for Kuzan, he has basically become a useless person now. His position as a candidate for general has reached its limit. I am afraid that after Diarmuid retires, he will not take the initiative in the selection of generals. Instead, Gion is more likely to be the one.

"I just feel a little lonely." Sakaski shook his head again.

Without any hesitation, he quickly asked, "And then? What are you going to do?" "Singing, dancing, rap, basketball..." Diarmait answered casually.

Sakaski? ? ?

"Hahaha, just kidding. I plan to cultivate my sentiments and become a versatile man. Anyway, I don't have to worry about whether there is enough time now. I will develop in an all-round way..." Diarmait said with a smile.

He had this idea. Currently, all his skill points were spent on combat attributes such as 'strength and command'. Now that he has immortality, shouldn't he pursue other things?

But before he could finish his words, his breath became disordered again, with a wisp of white mist coming out of his nose. The wine glass in his hand became a little unstable and some wine spilled out.

There was a hint of worry in Sakaski's eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "Here it comes again."

Chapter 456 Diarmait: Maybe I will travel through time again!

The situation was not much different from that day when Diarmait arrived at G-1.

Fortunately, he was sitting on the deck this time, so he didn't stumble or fall, but his hands were a little unsteady and a lot of wine spilled.

The rich breath of time and space spread around him and was soon absorbed into his body. Although he was only one meter away, Sakaski felt that Diarmait was no longer in this world.

The space around him was somewhat distorted, making Diarmait's figure look strange.

Still the same, quick come, quick go.

In less than three or two minutes, the strong aura of time and space dissipated, and Diarmait returned to normal, slowly exhaling a breath of white air.

"Huh." Diarmait exhaled, then smiled and said, "It's all right."
