However, they were clearly overthinking it.
Laurentina did want to kill the Celestial Dragon, but she didn't want others to suffer the punishment along with her.
Under everyone's gaze, the girl's tone became sincere: "I'm sorry, Saint Roswaal, I startled you."
Then the tone shifts abruptly, "But it's all that couple's fault!"
"Huh?" Roswaal froze, his mind not quite processing it. "CP?"
“Yes!” Laurentina nodded. “He knew perfectly well that I was a Marine, a student of Professor Zephyr, and the sister of Colonel Tina, but he didn’t tell you, which almost caused you to lose your dignity!”
it is true?
Roswaal thought for a moment, and when he saw Jesse's evasive gaze, his face instantly turned red.
So he raised his pistol.
"and many more."
The girl stepped forward again. Faced with this stunning face, Roswaal looked puzzled but couldn't muster any anger.
“It would be a waste to kill him. I suggest turning him into a slave for transportation!” The girl said sincerely, with an expression of concern for the other person. “After all, you are such a useless slave.”
After saying that, many of the navy personnel had a mischievous grin on their faces.
The class monitor is so good and bad, I like him so much!
Roswaal's eyes lit up. He compared their physiques and smiled broadly, "You're so clever, Marine. Your suggestion is excellent!"
After accepting the Celestial Dragons' praise with grace, Laurentina gathered blood on her fingers and appeared in front of the thin slave the next moment.
Even though you're a notorious pirate, I'll still grant your request.
Even when you get to heaven, you should thank me for my great compassion.
"Flying Finger Gun - Spear of Death"
! ”
A bloody spear pierced through the slave's neck.
The exploding collar, which could not detect any living beings, automatically unhooked.
The girl bent down to pick it up, and the next moment, she put it around CP's neck.
"No..." Jesse's eyes slowly lost their light, and his body seemed to hunch over a little.
"Good navy! Good navy!" On the contrary, Roswaal was so happy he almost jumped for joy. "Now I've got a slave for free!"
Most Celestial Dragon families acquire slaves through purchase, but he obtained a more powerful slave without much effort.
After all, Jesse made the mistake first, and the World Government cannot blame him.
"Good navy, good navy!" Roswaal sat on Jesse's back and asked happily, "Did you see the little girl run past just now?"
After he finished speaking, the room fell silent again.
"I know!" Laurentina smiled brightly.
Zephyr, Garp, and the others frowned, but did not stop them.
"where?"
"At GR 13," Laurentina pointed in a direction, "a bar that likes to rip you off. There's an old man with glasses there; he's the kid's grandfather. Go find him!"
Diverting trouble to the east?
Zephyr and Garp grinned like scoundrels.
Wait, the Navy is responsible if something happens to a Celestial Dragon, right? Zephyr's face darkened.
Chapter Twenty-Seven: The CP Has No Right to Confer Titles on Me! (Hahaha, please support!)
Upon hearing this, Saint Roswaal immediately led the new slaves to GR 13.
He kicked Jesse in the face a few times as he walked, probably to train his obedience.
Jesse, unwilling to accept defeat, wanted to explain that GR13 was Hades' lair, and that Roswaal Saint couldn't be fooled.
However, seeing Laurentina's cold smile, he ultimately lowered his head pathetically, sighed, and fell silent.
However, none of this mattered to Laurentina and her group. After the conflict with the Celestial Dragons, the recruits lost all interest in shopping.
In their minds, the position of justice seemed to have been challenged.
Seeing this, Zephyr simply led his navy back to port, heading straight for Marineford.
"You, you." Zephyr took the sherry handed to him by Laurentina, hung up the Den Den Mushi, and said, "The whole of Sabaody is in complete chaos."
"What do you mean?" Laurentina smiled elegantly. "Is it that a Celestial Dragon is dead or Rayleigh is dead?"
"How could that be? CP suffered a lot of losses." Zephyr's gaze was serious, but he couldn't help but grin. "That bastard Rayleigh got a warning too, and had to pay a lot of money, hahaha!!!"
"Ah, that old swindler still has money?" Garp took a big bite out of the bone and meat.
"Of course not, so he was so poor that he pawned his pants and had to humbly ask Xia Qi for money, hahaha."
The girl envisioned a deserted, exploitative bar, where the old pirate's obsequious voice drifted out, a washboard rested on his lap, and the smoking female owner flipped through ledgers calculating losses.
A win-win situation means winning twice.
The deck turned into a sea of joy, and Laurentina's mood finally improved.
Amidst the laughter of the crowd, the training ship finally arrived slowly at Crescent Bay.
On the port, a pink-haired figure waved in this direction; it was Tina, who had finished her patrol.
The conflict between my sister and the Celestial Dragons really startled me!
After registering their entry information, Tina hurriedly pulled Lauren Tina closer to a high-end restaurant in the residential area.
The restaurant looked incredibly luxurious, with walls covered in various expensive paintings and magnificent crystal chandeliers casting dreamy, colorful light.
The two sat down, and the waiter enthusiastically poured tea and water. Tina followed the menu without any hesitation and marked up more than a dozen dishes.
"Time flies," Tina said, returning the menu and instinctively taking a Pocky stick from her pocket. "Tomorrow is the day of the investiture ceremony."
Tina was happy, but also disappointed.
"Sister." Glancing at her slightly wistful expression, Laurentina smiled genuinely. "Thank you, thank you for taking care of me this past year."
Tina smiled. She thoroughly enjoyed the short wait before the meal. After the commissioning ceremony, her sister would be a full-fledged naval officer. How long could she stay under her protection?
Even after finally achieving a close connection in spirit, is it inevitable that our physical lives will eventually diverge?
Tina took a sip of red wine and sighed.
Then, he took out an exquisite little box from inside the pink suit, inside which were a pair of silver shark earrings that were obviously very valuable.
The earrings, adorned with gemstones and featuring a minimalist design, exude a sense of refined elegance, as if one were traversing a deep blue ocean, observing graceful white sharks engaging in their hunting game.
"This is a gift for you!" Tina walked over and carefully put it on the girl's head.
"Thank you, sister." Laurentina turned her head to look at herself in the beautiful glass window, her expensive earrings sparkling as if she were wearing a sky full of stars.
Shark earrings suit me perfectly, just like gold snake earrings paired with Hancock.
But I always feel like he's a bit silly. Is it just my imagination?
Red Harbor, CP6 Headquarters.
“Damn it!!”
A tall man in a long black overcoat kicked over a bench, and his subordinates standing nearby stiffened in fear, falling silent.
"What's the casualty situation at CP6?" Habs asked, his voice filled with anger.
"Reporting, sir," a man in a T-shirt wearing a black top hat adorned with red fur replied hesitantly, "Five more colleagues are seriously injured..."
"5 people..."
Habs's face was frosty as he slammed his hands on the table. "That damned navy girl is named Laurentina."
"Right? It was this wretched woman who instigated Roswaal to cause trouble for Rayleigh."
"Yes, Jesse was also turned into a slave."
boom!
Habs punched him to the ground, roaring, "I haven't forgotten! I don't need you to remind me!!"
"Damn it, that Celestial Dragon isn't blaming her now, she's blaming us for our incompetence! What an idiot! What an idiot!"
Habs glanced at the reprimand document on his desk and clenched his fist.
"Tomorrow is the graduation ceremony for new naval recruits, right?"
"When the ranks are awarded, we need to find a way to prevent that woman from getting her medal and cape so easily!"
Habs stepped forward, his eyes coldly fixed on Elron, his face twisted in a grimace: "When it's time for the conferment of ranks, give that girl some trouble, humiliate her thoroughly, make sure this bitch knows where the navy's power comes from, and teach her a lesson!"
Elron wiped his sweat and hurriedly said, "Lauren Tina is the most valued new generation of the Navy's top brass. She has an excellent relationship with Sengoku, Tsuru, Zephyr, and others. If we ruin that girl's future, the Navy will be furious, and CP6 will also have a hard time dealing with it."
Although awarding ranks to naval officers is also CP6's responsibility, no one has ever caused trouble in this regard. Face is given to each other, and if Laurentina were truly put in an awkward position, the naval leadership would not hesitate to take drastic measures.
Especially that old bastard Kap, he's arrogant and no one dares to interfere if he does something. There are plenty of ways to annoy someone, how could Commander Habs be so short-sighted?
This is exactly like Spandam, that idiot commander of CP9!
"Don't you know how to gauge the limits here?" Habs walked up to Elron, grabbed him by the collar, and lifted him up as casually as if he were a chick.
"If you can't even handle something like this well, how will you be able to take over as the commander of CP6 from me in the future?"
"Understood, sir!" Elron's eyes lit up, and he responded respectfully in a loud voice, "I will definitely let her know the wrath of CP6!"
“Not bad.” Habs tossed him aside like trash, gritting his teeth, “Isn’t she arrogant? Then review and revise her speech too, and let her read what rules are!”
"I'll be watching from the audience with the other CP officers, so don't let me down!"
"Yes!" Elron nodded and bowed.
The next day arrived as expected, much to everyone's anticipation.
The once solemn and imposing Naval Headquarters attic was now adorned with banners, and the attic had been thoroughly cleaned. The graduation ceremony that all the new recruits had been eagerly anticipating was about to begin!
Chapter Twenty-Eight: We Choose Justice! (Please support us!)
The recruit graduation ceremony is the most important annual ceremony for the Navy and a window to promote the Navy's strength to other forces. Its fame in the maritime world is no less than that of Big Mom's tea party.
After all, in the Great Pirate Era, the World Government could not tolerate pirates stealing all the glory, and as the strongest overlord on the sea, the Navy needed to flex its muscles against the pirates regularly to maintain its deterrent effect.
Of course, in order to protect the newlyweds, their family information is concealed by higher-ups.
This year, due to the sudden emergence of the "Naval Empress," the outside world has paid special attention to this graduation ceremony.
Before the ceremony even began, reporters from major newspapers had already set up their video Den Den Mushi (snail phone) and were constantly adjusting the lenses.
Among them, Morgans, the president of the World Economic News Agency, personally visited Crescent Bay. Beside him was the photographer nicknamed "Flame Photographer," who was returning here for the first time since being dismissed from the Navy.
Habs, Spandam, Spandam, Morgans, Stussy, Rufeld, Mihawk... the head of the CP organization, some of the emperors of the underworld, the Seven Warlords of the Sea and other major forces all came to witness this global event of justice.
Those who couldn't come would turn on their video Den Den Mushi and watch the whole thing for amusement.
The ceremony was about to begin, and the invited guests took their seats in twos and threes.
Habs, who was in front of the audience, turned around and Elron immediately understood and leaned over. Then he heard his superior's cold voice: "Make her lose face, but don't make the World Government lose face. Find the right balance."
“I understand, sir,” Elron nodded.
Other CP officials who were aware of the matter also turned to give encouraging looks, the meaning of which was self-evident.
The CP and the Navy have always been at odds, so isn't this an opportunity to seize the initiative?
Jingle bell!
All the guests fell silent. The naval band played a melody, and then the new recruits hummed a song.
"We are a naval force dedicated to upholding justice. Witness the fierce spirit of us..."
It's the Navy's "Song of Justice"!
The powerful melody was amplified infinitely through the Den Den Mushi, spreading evenly to every corner of the square.
All the new recruits stood up.
Sengoku, Zephyr, Tsuru, Garp and other high-ranking naval officers all stood up.
Even the guests in the audience stood up.
