Colonel Hill just smiled and didn't speak.

Then he straightened the chessboard that Hailan had overturned, and then picked up the chess pieces scattered on the ground.

He originally played an incompetent colonel who had no enthusiasm for justice but was incompetent.

The more he the lieutenant admiral, the more successful he felt he had performed.

"Follow your teachings, sir!"

Colonel Hill said something innocuous and watched Hailan leave his room.

"This major's way of turning the tables is really special, but it also reminds me that those who have the ability to turn the tables are not necessarily chess players... Is he hinting at something to me? ”

The next day, Hailan no longer personally led the soldiers to exercise as he did at the beginning, but handed over the training to Second Lieutenant Wagner.

Perhaps because he was completely conquered by the strength that Hailan showed that night, Second Lieutenant Wagner seemed to have become Major Hailan's little fan, and he carried out Hailan's orders absolutely firmly, without the slightest complaint or suspicion.

After Wagner began training with most of his soldiers, Hailan changed into civilian clothes and asked Lieutenant Bermel, who was also dressed in civilian clothes, out of the naval base and came to a leisurely café.

"What, is Major Hailan planning to break up with others and go on a date with me?"

Bermel, who used to be a bad girl, said while drinking sweet coffee, staring at Hailan's eyes without blushing and heartbeat.

Hailan was amused by Bermel's words: "This eldest sister, you are 21 years old, but I am only 16 years old, even if I want to date, I won't look for you, right?" ”

Bermel wasn't angry, she said in a tone of indifference, "You little guy is really..."

"You know what? Just talk about the age of a girl like you, and be careful of being single for a lifetime. ”

"I'm just telling the truth."

"But what girls hate is people like you who speak honestly and don't hold back."

"I'm single, I'm proud!"

“……”

“……”

After staring at Hailan's eyes for a long time, Bermel smiled and waved his hand: "Okay, okay, I'm afraid of you little guy, let's talk about it, what's the matter with me." ”

Hailan glanced at the people around her from the corner of her eye, and after finding that there were no suspicious people, she asked, "Some words may be hard to hear, but I have to say them." ”

"Your strength must be at least the top three in the base of Rogue Town, right?"

Bermel nodded: "Well, you guessed right, my strength can rank second in the base, the third is Wagner's stupid boy, and the first is Colonel Hill, but if I join forces with Wagner, I can also defeat Colonel Hill." ”

"So that's the problem."

Hai Lan put the cup back on the table and asked meaningfully, "I'm curious, with the current strength of your Rogue Town Navy, how can you keep the peace of Rogue Town?" ”

Bermel smiled bitterly: "You're right, we alone can't protect the peace of Rogue Town and the surrounding seas. ”

"In the era of pirates, the number of pirates skyrocketed, and because of the high mortality rate, there was less and less fresh blood in the navy, and not many people joined the army at all."

"So in fact, the main force that we rely on in Rogue Town is Colonel Roy of the 8th Branch of the Victorian Navy, Nelson Roy."

"Nelson Roy..."

Hailan repeated the colonel's name to deepen her impression.

"That Colonel Roy has 20 warships, 3,000 soldiers, plus the official naval force of the Kingdom of Victoria, so the 8th branch is the strongest naval branch in the East China Sea."

"Colonel Hill and Colonel Roy are old friends, so when Rogue Town encounters an unrivaled pirate, he will ask Colonel Roy for help."

"We all respectfully call him 'Admiral' Nelson for a number of reasons."

"Admiral, heh, the tone is really not small, this is a warlord at all!"

Hailan quickly understood Colonel Roy's position, and he continued to ask, "So you think that Colonel Hill has a problem?" After all, a warlord like Roy would not have come to support Rogue just to uphold justice. ”

Bermel had mentioned some questions about Colonel Hill in his previous letters, which led to Helan's "date" with Bermel today.

"That's right."

"I suspect..."

Bermel struggled in his mind for a long time, and finally said what was in his heart: "I suspect that the merchant ships of Rogue Town to other islands were attacked by pirates because the route was revealed by Hill. ”

"Because of this, Hill can guarantee the safety of Rogue Town, because he is the equivalent of Roy's eyeliner in Rogue Town."

Hailan tried to simplify the information provided by Belmel: "In this case, the real mastermind behind it is Colonel Roy?" ”

Bermel's mood began to get a little excited: "It must be him, because only he can cover the sky with one hand in the East China Sea." ”

Hailan didn't answer, but deep down he didn't agree with Bermel's thoughts.

Bermeer, who has never been out of the East China Sea, is a frog at the bottom of the well, and it is fundamentally different from how powerful the real strong are.

Three years ago, when he heard the news of the escape of the Golden Lion Shiki, Bermel even released a big sentence of "If he dares to come to the East China Sea, I will teach him a lesson with my own hands".

has only power but no strength, and it won't take long to sit in the position of "admiral" and he will be thrown down.

Hailan had seen a picture of Colonel Roy at Bermel, the guy was fatter than a pig, and it was difficult to even move, not like a man who could fight.

Or, this Colonel Roy is some kind of Devil Fruit ability with strange abilities, and he is hiding his strength; Or, this Colonel Roy is just a puppet, and there are other people in power behind him.

The same goes for the Draconians who ride on the head of the World Government.

Hailan really couldn't understand why the wise and alert Sky Marshal and the scheming Five Old Stars would succumb to the rule of a pack of pigs. ①

There is only one truth, these pigs are just puppets used by the real rulers to confuse the world.

Stronger than an admiral, he must also stoop down to protect a group of stupid pigs.

How powerful should the real ruler be?

Force or weapon, he should always have some hole cards.

Hailan, who had pulled herself back from her divergent thoughts, continued to ask, "Do you know anything else about Colonel Hill and Colonel Roy?" ”

"Colonel Roy has a very powerful Devil Fruit ability bodyguard by his side, I don't know the specific ability, Colonel Hill has a good match in Happy Street... Sorry, that's all I know. ”

Bermel told Hailan everything he knew.

She's gambling.

If she loses this bet, she will resign from her position as a lieutenant in the Navy and return to the village of Cocoa West to grow oranges.

Of course, the premise is that you can survive the defeat.
