Chapter 237: Akainu's Attitude (Second Update)
"Bastard! Why don't you answer the phone, do you want to be punished? ”
The phone bug yelled at Hailan.
If it weren't for Hai Lan, who had already turned the phone bug's head in other directions, he had every reason to doubt that he would be sprayed by the phone bug and spit on the star.
“... Hey, what about people? Why don't you speak? ”
Listening to the rough voice of the phone bug, the soldiers on the deck felt as if they were being stabbed to their necks, and they didn't even dare to gasp.
Now that even Hailan hasn't spoken, who dares to answer?
"Sakasky senior, it's me."
“……”
The other end of the phone bug was silent for a moment.
Akainu has an impression of Hailan's voice.
Akainu and Hailan did not have much contact, but the few times they had contact, Hailan left a relatively special impression on Akainu.
Hailan's feeling to Akainu made Akainu a little inexplicable.
Sometimes Akainu thinks that he should hate Hailan very much, but there are many things that Hailan does that even he admires; But when Akainu thinks that he should like Hailan, he will feel that Hailan is very annoying.
This ambivalence made Akainu not understand at all.
But this psychology did not last long.
Akainu is a very simple military man.
Since you can't figure it out, you don't want to think about it at all, so let's spend the extra energy on fighting pirates.
"It turned out to be Lieutenant General Hailan... But why don't you answer the phone? ”
As soon as he heard that it was Hailan who answered the phone, Akainu's attitude eased a lot.
Even though Akainu is now the base chief of the G1 branch of the Navy in New World and rarely returns to the Navy Headquarters, Akainu has never missed his attention to maritime intelligence.
The flying thief "Golden Lion" Shiji was killed by Hailan.
The three kings and the Seven Martial Seas have all suffered great losses at the hands of Hailan.
The lonely red of the Chambord Islands was also delayed because of Hailan.
With one deed after another in front of him, even Akaiu had nothing to say.
Facts are more persuasive than any clever language.
Hailan briefly described the strange weather she had encountered before to Akainu.
Akainu said in a deep voice: "I see, I understand, it's all right, right?" ”
Hailan glanced at the deck: "It's okay, the warship can barely sail, and the soldiers are all alive." ”
"Then I won't hold them accountable, and I'll report to G1 as soon as possible."
With that, Akaiu hung up the phone.
The surrounding naval officers all had surprised and envious looks on their faces.
Although there are no special lines in Akainu's words, it is not difficult to find from the tone of Akainu's speech that Akainu's attitude towards Hailan is almost completely different from others.
There are not many people who can make Akainu treat him so kindly.
Not even the "Hero of the Navy" Karp.
But they didn't feel the slightest unfairness in their hearts.
Lieutenant General Hailan's exploits, they all heard it in their ears and saw it in their eyes.
For Hailan, they only have the purest envy.
In fact, Hailan did not use any skills in his attitude towards Akainu's words and deeds.
As mentioned earlier, Akainu is a pure and simple military man.
This world of One Piece is also not like ancient China, with the concept of "absolute loyalty to the monarch".
Therefore, there is only one kind of person who can make Akainu look up to and respect, and that is to have real merits.
Although Karp also had the merits of defeating pirates such as Locks, Whitebeard, and Roger, Karp has been like a retired old man over the years, and he has rarely fought pirates.
In addition, Karp's off-line personality seems to be a bit old and disrespectful, so Akainu's favor for Karp has simply dropped again and again, which is completely opposite to the "Karp's little fan brother" like Pheasant.
It's Hailan, except that his personality is not in the same way as Akainu's taste, but he can't find fault with other aspects.
……
In the Navy's G1 branch in New World, Akainu sat opposite Vice Admiral Jonathan, and between the two of them, there was a chess deck.
"Sakaski, it's been almost two hours since this round, you're a little absent-minded, how many calls have you made?"
Akaiu didn't answer Jonathan's question: "See if I don't kill you." ”
"Hehe..."
"What's wrong?"
"It's time for you to fall down..."
“…… Don't play anymore! ”
"Hehe... Tsundere! ”
"What do you mean by tsundere?"
"Don't say... I can't say..."
"You bastard, you're good at anything, but it's annoying to like to pretend to be mysterious."
Akainu pushed the chess game in front of him, and sat on the sofa with a golden sword: "If you don't say it, don't say it, but Jonathan, what did you do wrong?" Otherwise, how could he be sent to guard some steam factory? ”
A lieutenant general of the headquarters, the commander of the G8 branch, was sent to protect the factory, and anyone could see that it was a degradement.
Jonathan happily explained, "Sakasky, you're thinking things too simply.
The steam factory guards don't seem interesting, but you know, it's the government's core technology, and once it falls into the hands of pirates, the world is probably going to be in chaos.
So what is the position that matters? Or is justice important? ”
Akainu couldn't argue with Jonathan, and compromised: "Hmph, then let it be, anyway, whatever you kid says makes sense." ”
Actually, Jonathan didn't tell the truth to Akainu.
Although he is an old friend of Akainu, his personality is diametrically opposed to Akainu.
Akainu is strict with himself and his soldiers, and fights on the front line of the fight against pirates every day.
Jonathan didn't want to get involved in the fight at all, only wanted to retire early.
The guards of the steam factory, which may seem degrading to others, but to Jonathan it is a beautiful one.
Not only steel mills, but as the "Industrial Revolution" progresses, other industries such as shipyards will develop there, and sooner or later the economy will prosper.
When the time comes, as the supreme commander of the "Iron Ore Island", is it not equivalent to retirement?
On the left is his wife Jessica, and on the right is the wine Shirley, life... But that's it~
But you can't say that to Akainu.
With the character of Akainu, if you hear this, the friendship between the two will definitely be over.
Of course, the phrase "protecting core technology" is not a complete lie.
There are very few lucky people who can find a large group of bosom friends with their purest personality like Luffy.
Absolutely most people rely on their brains.
Three days flew by.
In the chess game, Akainu was killed by Jonathan and was about to be generalized.
"Newspaper... Report... Come... Here it comes? ”
Akainu pushed the chess game: "So fast? ”
Jonathan raised his eyelids, and didn't bother with the red dog, but asked the herald in a slow voice, "Don't worry, speak slowly, what's going on?" ”
The herald swallowed and spit, sweating profusely, and his eyes were frightened: "White... It's the Whitebeard Pirates here! ”
