340 Receiving Warships
On the other hand, Zhao Hao was sitting there motionlessly.
Kong looked at Zhao Hao in surprise and asked, “What’s the matter? Do you have any questions?”
Zhao Hao replied calmly, “Fleet Admiral Kong, are there any missions that can directly promote you to an Admiral?”
The situation turned awkward for a moment. Kong’s face turned red from choking, and he shouted angrily, “After you complete the Vice Admiral mission, I’ll give you the Admiral’s.”
Zhao Hao nodded in satisfaction at Kong’s answer. He stood up and picked up the last bounty.
“Alright, that’s all for now. We don’t have to waste any more time. Let’s go now. We can get our warship there.”
Since they were Marines, they naturally had to be equipped with warships when they went out to carry out missions.
Kong pointed out the window.
“I’ll be guarding the headquarters for the next few years. You can deploy my warships and Marines at the port. Of course, whether you can control them or not will depend on your abilities.”
Zhao Hao nodded slowly and didn’t say anything more.
Then, the four of them took their respective bounty missions and walked out of Kong’s office without hesitation.
Kong looked at the four young figures with a deep look in his eyes and said slowly in a soft voice, “Don’t let anything happen to you, kids.”
An adjutant slowly pushed the door open and walked in. He looked at the back of Zhao Hao and the other three and asked Kong in confusion, “Fleet Admiral, they’re still cadets who haven’t received any training. Isn’t it too risky to send them out on such a dangerous mission?”
He let the cadets who had not yet undergone training go directly into the sea to apprehend the famous pirates.
It was unbelievable to think about it. This had never happened in the past.
Not many pirates were kind. They wouldn’t show mercy just because their opponent was a young child who had just come of age.
According to the customs of the Marines, even the cadets who had just graduated had to follow the commanding officer for a few years to gain experience and knowledge before they could act independently. However, there was clearly a big problem with how Kong had sent the four of them, who had not even attended the academy, out.
Kongs ignored the adjutant’s words and walked to the window. He looked down at the four figures leaving and was silent for a while before he slowly spoke. “Such a big thing has happened. The Commander-in-Chief will be held accountable.”
“What?” The adjutant was shocked and continued. “How is that possible? We don’t have much combat power to begin with, and the Commander-in-Chief is going to abdicate at this time?”
The Commander-in-Chief’s abdication was undoubtedly news that would shake the world even more.
The Marine Headquarters had already lost two Admirals and 10 Vice Admirals. They were in a state of extreme lack of combat power.
If he were to announce the Commander-in-Chief’s abdication at this time…
It would be a devastating blow to both the people and the Marines.
To the pirates, it was the best news…
Kong said with a frown, “The Commander-in-Chief has already handed his resignation letter to the Five Elders, and they have agreed to it. They feel that the current Commander-in-Chief is not suitable to lead the Marines.
“I tried to stop him, but I failed. I only delayed it for a few years, but it’ll be a few years at the latest. By then, I’ll take over the position of Commander-in-Chief. So, by then, the position of the Fleet Admiral and the three Admirals will all be empty. We still need these young people to grow up as soon as possible and make their names on the sea.”
On the other side…
Zhao Hao, Garp, Sengoku, and Tsuru had already left the headquarters and were walking toward the warships by the port.
Garp was in a very excited state, and he walked casually.
However, he still stood behind Zhao Hao.
Even though the four of them did not have any official positions, they regarded Zhao Hao as their leader.
After all, Zhao Hao’s battle prowess was the strongest among the four of them. This was how it was on the sea, where the strong were respected.
Sengoku and Tsuru didn’t have any objections and followed behind Zhao Hao.
Finally, they arrived at the port and saw the first warship that belonged to them.
On the warship…
An officer who had just finished answering the phone said to the officer beside him in a very angry tone, “Brothers, the Fleet Admiral’s adjutant called. He told me that the Fleet Admiral has arranged a new commander for us to lead us on a campaign on the sea.”
Another officer asked, puzzled, “What’s wrong with that? We’ve been idle here for a long time. Isn’t it good to go out and fight? What’s with your angry expression?”
“Yeah, we haven’t been out for a long time. We’re going crazy. Isn’t it good to be able to go out? What’s with your face?”
…
The officer who answered the phone said angrily, “It’s good to be able to leave, but the new commanders are a few new recruits who haven’t even entered the academy!”
As soon as he said that, the Marines below instantly exploded.
“What?”
“How is that possible? New recruits? I’m going to look for the Fleet Admiral. I can’t agree to such a thing.”
“Hmph! I can kill new recruits with one hand. How dare they be our leaders?”
…
As the Fleet Admiral’s crew, every single person there was extremely proud.
The Fleet Admiral was the strongest existence in the Marines, and those who could join the Marines were all capable.
To be able to become an Admiral’s subordinate was the proudest thing for all Marines.
Even if they hadn’t gone out to sea for a few years, as long as they were still the Fleet Admiral’s subordinates, no one in the entire headquarters would dare to provoke them.
Even if it was just an ordinary officer on the Fleet Admiral’s ship, some regular officers would have to greet him.
However, just a moment ago, Fleet Admiral Kong had arranged for four new recruits to be the commanders of the warship.
This was something that the proud and unyielding Marines could not accept.
They knew all too well what the new recruits were like. They had all gone through that stage.
Not only did they have no combat power, but they could easily wet their pants on the battlefield as well. They also had some childish ideas and commanded randomly. If they really accepted it, the Marines would definitely be laughed at.
Just as the officers were complaining, four figures appeared on the warship.
“Haha, Zhao Hao, I feel like they don’t welcome us. Should we go back and report to the Fleet Admiral?”
“I don’t think we need to trouble Fleet Admiral Kong. If they don’t accept it, we’ll beat them up until they do~”
