Targeted Akainu

Mariejois, Room of Authority.

Gorosei, who controlled the pinnacle of world power, were each standing or sitting, and in front of them, the masked CP0 Vice Chief bent slightly.

"Cister, did you miss anything else from your conversation with Longinus?" The bald Gorosei, who was holding his long sword, asked this.

"I dare not conceal anything." Cister said respectfully.

"Very well!" The blond Gorosei nodded once and asked again with narrowed eyes, "Do you think that there is resentment against the government inside his words?"

Cister silent for a moment seems to be in solemn judgment. For a long time, he only shook his head and said, "There is no resentment, he just lamented that even without the intervention of Gorosei-sama, the internal conflicts of the Marine will sooner or later erupt."

Hearing this, the bearded Gorosei nodded in satisfaction, "He is really still trustworthy, this time, it is the government has treated him badly!"

"The Fleet Admiral is bound to belong to him; what's a little loss?" Long-haired Gorosei's voice was indifferent.

For his words, the remaining four did not refute; they all know that even with their support, the odds are that Akainu will not be able to compete with Longinus.

Whether in merit or reputation, the gap is too big!

"It's thanks to him that he has the upper hand in the Fleet Admiral's race, otherwise, it would really be a headache to let that bastard Akainu become the Fleet Admiral!" Curly-haired Gorosei was upset; six years ago in that war, he was the one who Akainu scolded.

Blonde Gorosei also nodded, "Only Longinus kind of 'compromise' of justice that we can hold well, if it were that bastard Akainu encounter this kind of thing, most likely will run over to us to ask for face or something."

After a moment of silence, the Gorosei with swords continued, "However, only the words of the dispute is far from enough, if one of them is persuaded, it may instead let the whole navy to abandon the dispute and become more united."

Long-haired Gorosei also nodded, "Do not underestimate Longinus, that man, indeed, has an extraordinary affinity, if you let him calm down, it may really be possible to remove the hidden problems within the marine."

The blonde Gorosei is not optimistic about this, "You know the character of Longinus, if you want to make him angry, is not an easy thing."

"He also has a weakness!" The curly-haired Gorosei said in a cold voice, "His weakness is that he cares too much about the people around him!"

Hearing him say this, the remaining four people all turned their wary eyes toward him, "What do you want? Don't burn the fire on yourself!"

The bearded Gorosei even warned, "He is indeed not easily provoked, but once angry, that situation is absolutely everyone does not want to see!"

"Whitebeard is scary enough, don't let him become the next Whitebeard."

"Don't worry about it, all we have to do is to guide the topic, intensify the emotions of those marines, so that their anger is transferred to Akainu." The curly-haired Gorosei cast his gaze towards Cister, making the latter's scalp tingle for a while.

"Are you trying to get Akainu to take on Longinus' men?" The long-haired Gorosei frowned slightly, "But that man is tough but not stupid, he should know the difference between himself and Longinus, there is no way he will go to take the initiative to provoke trouble without any chance of winning!"

"No chance of winning, then we'll give him the chance of winning!" Curly-haired Gorosei face with a confident smile, "I have learned from Dr. Vegapunk to grasp the weakness of the simulated prosthetic limbs of Longinus, I believe that this information is enough to give him confidence!"

"Vegapunk? You really have long been prepared ah!" The blonde Gorosei said in a deep voice, "But do not overplay your hand, in case you let Akainu win, I will not give him face!"

"Longinus won't lose that easily, and ..." laughed the curly-haired Gorosei, "even if he loses, we can, still, refuse to promote him to the rank of Fleet Admiral on the grounds for Akainu's actions against his own people! "

"Then I'm relieved!" The blond Gorosei nodded in satisfaction.

Cister, who was still waiting on the sidelines for the Gorosei to give orders, also lamented that Admiral Akainu was so miserable!

...

Marine Headquarters, Boot Camp.

"Instructor Gregory, tell us about Admiral Hitsujiza?"

"Yes, yes, I heard that you, instructor, and Admiral Hitsujiza knew each other twenty years ago!"

"Instructor, tell us, what kind of person is Admiral Hitsujiza?"

Looking at these recruits who still had vigor and youthfulness on their faces, Gregory was also a bit nostalgic, "Boss is the kind of person who is born to stand at the top. Among you, there are many people who are more talented than me, but if you compare with the boss, the gap is so big that there is no limit!"

Hearing Gregory says this; these recruits are a little dissatisfied; they are initially geniuses from around the world. Because they selected the Marine Headquarters, they are in a honey-confidence stage of life.

If they say that their talent is no match for the admiral, then, of course, they admit it, but to say that the gap is so big, they don't believe it.

Of course, they are not so stupid as to say it in public, but only in their hearts secretly slander.

Their performance naturally hides from Gregory; see these recruits not convinced "written" on the face, he did not get angry. He just smiled and said, "If I say that boss after the boot camp performance, you will probably think that it is related to Chief Instructor Zephyr or Vice Admiral Garp teaching. So, I'll say something about what happened to the boss before he came to the headquarters."

Hearing Gregory says this, a group of recruits were interested. To say the story of Longinus suppressing the Impel Down at the age of 14, killing World at the age of 17, defeating BIG-MOM at the age of 21, and becoming admiral at the age of 24 is indeed shocking. But these things are almost calloused to their ears, so they are naturally more interested in what Gregory said.

"Boss, he was born with the talent to Kenbunshoku Haki ..."

"Wait, instructor, what did you say?"

"Born with the ability to possess the Kenbunshoku Haki, how is that possible?"

Although they have not yet reached the training involving Haki, these recruits are shouting, the relevant information is no longer a secret, and naturally know the difficulty of training Haki.

"That's already surprised?" Gregory laughed, "In fact, this talent is not unique to the boss, the sea pirate Aloof Red and Fishman Island's Queen Otohime, they are also born with this talent!"

Instead of being relieved by Gregory's explanation, the recruits' group was even more appalled by the fact that only three people in the whole world could possess the talent, which was simply the luck of having been kissed by Lady Luck.

They also somewhat understand why Instructor Gregory would say that it turns out Admiral Longinus is at least twenty years ahead of them at the starting line!

How could they compete with each other?

Looking at their appearance, Gregory once again said with more vigor, "In addition, the boss also comprehended Soru and Seimei Kikan by himself when he was in the G2 branch ..."

"Realize by himself?"

"Seimei Kikan?"

A group of recruits is more desperate than unfamiliar with Haki; they are naturally more aware of the difficulty of practicing the Marine Rokushiki.

Up to now, not even a few of them have learned the simplest "Soru". Still, Admiral Longinus even comprehended it on his own before entering the headquarters, and the most difficult Seimei Kikan, which is separate from the Rokushiki.

When thinking of this, a group of recruits emitted the aura of defeated dogs, "Waste must be used to describe people like us!"

Seeing that the blow seems to be a bit too much, Gregory smiled sarcastically and hurriedly changed the subject and said, "Ahem, I'm just saying this to make you guys understand. Even the most powerful people like the boss are working incredibly hard. What qualification do you have to be lazy and slack?"

Hearing this, the morale of a group of recruits is finally slightly back up. Indeed, it is not terrible to have great talent; what is terrible is to have people with great talent who work harder than you!

Seeing the crowd finally back on track, Gregory also sighed and said, "In fact, I was even worse than you guys back then, if it wasn't for the boss, I probably wouldn't have been able to get out of the branch in my life, no, I should say without the boss, my life would have ended twenty-two years ago ..."

Gregory looked up abruptly and found that all these recruits were coming up to him; frustrated eyes have long since receded, replaced by curious gossip.

Gregory couldn't help but the corners of his mouth twitch, "What are you doing all together here? Are we all here yet? All go to training!"
