One Piece: Shadow of the Navy

Marinefando, in the square of the Navy Headquarters Base.

The upper echelons of the Navy High School in the Navy Headquarters Base gathered in the square and stood in an orderly manner in the square.

On the high platform of the square, facing the direction of the square, there are ten chairs, one of which is in the middle, three chairs on the left side, next to each other, and some distance away from the one in the middle. On the right side, there are six chairs placed together, also separated from the middle one.

Under the high platform, the navy was standing.

The person standing in the front row is the rear admiral. The rear admirals are lined up neatly in two rows one after another. The one in the front is the rear admiral who has been promoted to the rank of major general longer and has more seniority, while the ones standing in the back row are He is a junior major general.

However, although the major general was standing in the front row, there was a vacant space at the front of the square. At least one more row of people could stand, but no one was there now.

After the major generals, there are a large number of brigadiers. The brigadiers do not have so many rules. Although they are divided into five columns, most of them stand with people they are familiar with.

After the brigadier came the colonel, then the lieutenant colonel, and finally the major, one at a time and moving backwards.

In the entire navy, except for the generals who are still performing tasks outside, other generals have gathered here.

In addition to the generals and generals arranged in an orderly manner, the square was also filled with sailors with the rank of major and below.

The whole square was filled with the sound of people talking to each other. Although each person's voice was not loud, so many voices gathered together and it became a loud buzzing sound.

Viewed from a high place, the entire square is full of people. In front of the high platform in the square, people are standing in an orderly manner, but in other places, it is orderly, crowded and densely packed.

Marines with the rank of rear admiral and below are standing in the square, waiting. In the conference room of the headquarters base, the marshal, two generals, and all the lieutenant generals who are not performing tasks are here, and a discussion is going on. Meeting.

At the head of the conference table, Seng Guo flipped through the documents handed to him by the secretary and spoke.

"Now that the six alternate generals have been determined and the relevant code names have been discussed, the next step is to announce the news to all sailors."

Although the candidates for the six alternate generals have already been determined by the Five Old Stars, they are not qualified to determine such candidates.

This meeting was just to discuss their respective code names with the six people. However, Warring States did not say this out loud and just blurred it.

Warring States put down the documents in his hands and looked up at the senior navy officials below.

"Although alternate generals are essentially lieutenant generals, they are different from lieutenant generals. Five lieutenant generals are either promoted to generals or selected as alternate generals, so their vacant lieutenant general ranks must be filled as soon as possible. to avoid staff vacancies.”

As soon as he finished speaking about the Warring States period, an old lieutenant general below spoke again.

"The problem mentioned by the marshal must be solved as soon as possible. Although the number of vice admirals in our navy is not fixed, the total number has always been maintained at a relatively stable number. This time, the number of top combatants has been reduced by five. , it really should be added as soon as possible.”

"Furthermore, when Commander-in-Chief Kong left the post of Marshal, he already took away a group of more senior lieutenant generals. Many of us now have just been promoted, and their qualifications are still lacking. At this time, Let alone weaken our strength.”

"This...isn't necessary? Beard and the others were just selected as candidate generals. They are still the top combat power of our navy."

Some people still haven't been able to think of something deeper. They feel that Warring States' proposal is appropriate, but there is no need to be so anxious.

Of course, there are only a handful of people who think so, and few people echo their words.

The person who said this was a middle-aged lieutenant general. The other person was the kind of lieutenant general who mainly sat in the office and processed documents. He may have never carried out a few combat missions in his life, and he had never experienced being on the front line of combat. So Warring States just glanced at the other person, didn't say anything to him, and ignored him magnanimously.

Everyone in the entire conference room knew what was going on with him, and few people paid him any attention.

"Suggest any suitable candidates you have. Please select all five of the quotas. They will be announced together at the inauguration ceremony of Porusalino later." Warring States glanced at the other lieutenant generals. Circle, settled.

He knew that most of the people here knew what he wanted to do and knew that he was doing it for the Navy and would support him.

Indeed, just as Warring States thought, most of the lieutenant generals could understand what Warring States meant and did not have the slightest disapproval.

On the surface, the navy's top combat capabilities are the lieutenant general, the three generals, and the marshal. The lieutenant general is the basic part, and the three generals and the marshal are the top of the top.

Now, in addition to the navy, the official military of the world government also includes the army. For the world government, the balance between the two must be well grasped, so the world government has mandatory requirements for the top combat capabilities of the navy and army.

The top combat power, the generals, the navy and the army are the same, they are all three generals.

As for the second-level lieutenant generals, because the sea area under the jurisdiction of the navy is much wider than the land area under the jurisdiction of the army, the number of lieutenant generals in the navy is slightly greater than that in the army, including [-] in the navy and [-] in the army.

Of course, because the lieutenant general is not the decisive combat force, the control is not so strict, and the world government does not explicitly require that there must be so many people on both sides, but this is a tacit unspoken rule, one or two more, less One or two doesn't matter, but if there are too many, then the commander-in-chief of the entire army will have something to say to the marshals of both sides.

When Sora was still marshal of the navy, he proposed the concept of alternate generals. One general had two alternate generals.

Alternate General, in name only, but although the Alternate General is still essentially a Lieutenant General, the functions of the two are different and belong to a new function.

Moreover, only two alternate generals were selected before, and now the remaining four are selected together.

The current meaning of the Warring States Period is to completely separate the candidate generals and lieutenant generals, make the candidate generals independent, and expand the number of combat forces at the navy's lieutenant general level.

As long as the matter is done, when the time comes to report it to the commander-in-chief of the army and the Five Old Stars, they will have nothing to say.

Although Warring States didn't say it explicitly, most of the lieutenant generals present knew what he wanted to do, and they all supported it.

However, despite his support, Warring States did not speak. For a while, no one spoke to recommend anyone. You looked at me and I looked at you, and they were all silent.
