Chapter 622: Accident
Skyler didn't understand what Nurkic was struggling with, and he had such an idea, what was he doing for so long discussing with a frowning face just now?
But soon Skyler thought of a possibility, that is, Nurkic was just like himself, because of excessive force and lack of oxygen here, the brain was a little unable to turn around.
Skyler firmly believed that if he was the usual self, he would have thought of this good idea, and he had already completed the task before handing it over to Nurkic.
The reason why she didn't react until Nurkic said today was purely due to lack of oxygen!
She doesn't have the worries of Nurkic. Even if Nurkic tells Skyler about her concerns, Skyler probably won't care, after all, she has already landed on the island.
Even if the elephant owner is not happy, what can it do? Come on donkey. Like rolling and throwing yourself off?
Therefore, after Nurkic informed Skyler of this seemingly unreliable plan, Skyler ran directly to the stern, feeling the direction of the elephant's movement, and brewing a slash.
She doesn't plan to take a step from the elephant master and she will cut it with a knife. Although it is a bit difficult to solve it at once, after all, the elephant master's movement is too fast, or the stride is too big.
Skyler can slash across a distance of thousands of meters or even thousands of meters at will, but such a distance may only be a small step for the elephant owner.
Therefore, in order to achieve a slash that matches the main movement speed of the elephant while maintaining the observation space, Skyler needs a big job.
Of course, for Skyler, the difficulty is not too high, but she is not used to it. After all, she usually does not consider too long distance when slashing against the enemy.
She slashes thousands of meters casually, not to say that her limit is in this range, but that it is unnecessary. After all, no matter how fast the slash is, once the distance is extended, then the ability to fight the enemy will be lost, because the enemy is will run.
Now Skyler has to temporarily overcome his own habits, looking for a feeling of slashing that is extremely far away and does not need to worry too much about damage.
After all, things like clouds can be easily torn apart.
Soon, Skyler grasped the hilt of the black knife and obsidian, and the momentum of the sword also gathered in an instant, and he drew the knife and slashed.
"The Wind of the Night!"
Back in the middle, the layers of slashes stopped at the place where the blade was cut. The moment Skyler stopped the obsidian in his hand, these slashes turned into gorgeous butterflies and flew towards the distance.
The clouds that were originally overlapping were instantly pushed away to the sides, and the clouds were separated from what they could see to the endless place in the distance.
"Ka~"
Skyler sheathed the black knife Obsidian, and Nurkic, who was watching the scene, heaved a sigh of relief, and the elephant master did not change because of this.
Maybe it doesn't care at all, after all, the gap in the clouds is extremely narrow compared to the elephant's body size, just like people don't care about chopstick-sized cracks on the ground under their feet.
But this gap was enough for Zanye Detachment to observe. When Skyler walked back, Nurkic immediately led the reconnaissance team through.
After some equipment debugging, Nurkic finally heard the good news. Although the distance is still very far, the multiples of the telephoto equipment they carry are still too small, and the light transmittance of the lens seems to be a bit low at this time. Hip pulling.
Coupled with the extremely fast movement of the elephant master, this led to the situation where they could barely observe the distant sea surface.
This kind of reconnaissance situation is absolutely not in line with the combat requirements, but it is barely enough for the Zhanye detachment who just want to check the situation at the foot of the elephant.
And as far as the current observable range is concerned, there are no islands blocking the elephant's path, but at the speed of the elephant's master, this observable range will not last long.
Nurkic reported the "good news" to Skyler, and Skyler also nodded. Fortunately, she didn't waste her deliberation just now. After thinking about it, she asked:
"We are here, can we still contact others? Or can others contact us?"
Hearing Skyler's question, Nurkic took out the phone bugs on his body and found that they were all in a dormant state. He said, "I'll check the situation on the communication team right away."
"Well, you go to confirm first, if there is no problem with the communication, report our current situation to the headquarters, and at the same time let the reconnaissance team quickly draw the predicted route and send it back to the headquarters.
Let the headquarters confirm the situation on the road map as soon as possible, and if there are branches and detachments patrolling, let them withdraw quickly! "
"Yes, sir!"
Nurkic took the order to turn around and leave, while Skyler glanced at Pedro and the three who had disembarked from the warship and were lying on the ground familiar with the "ground" of their hometown. After thinking about it, they still didn't bother.
As for the headquarters, they were trying to figure out how to confirm Skyler's thoughts, and thinking of Crane who was constantly scratching his head, he suddenly received a call from the Zhanye Detachment.
'Not Skyler mutiny! Not a Skyler mutiny! Not a Skyler mutiny! '
Crane prayed quickly in his heart. In the past, when the Zhanye detachment came to find her, it was either Skyler's personal phone bug or Nurkic's official phone bug, but the detachment's phone bug was hardly used.
Because the phone bug was not used to contact her, but to communicate and report the missions of the headquarters. Zhanye detachment has the autonomy of action, and Skyler prefers to communicate directly with her or the marshal, so it is extremely use less.
Therefore, when it was discovered that it was the official phone bug of the Zhanye Detachment, a very bad guess came to He's mind, that is, the chief, Skyler, announced his mutiny.
Among the Zhanye Detachment, there is a navy who can use the official phone bug, because he doesn't want to see Skyler betray the navy, so he secretly contacted her.
Because it's very possible. If it is another detachment, if the chief rebels, even if someone reports it, he should directly connect with the headquarters, or connect with the marshal.
But the Zhanye detachment is different. Crane knows that no one in the Zhanye detachment can betray Skyler, so even if he disagrees with Skyler's rebellion, at most he can find someone who is likely to control her.
This person is either himself or Garp, but Karp has resigned from his post, and the official phone bug has been handed in. As for the private phone bug, maybe the official phone bug of the Zhanye Detachment has not recorded it.
And just an hour ago, Skyler threatened to join the Revolutionary Army, and hung up his phone in an extremely arrogant manner, so Crane was worried.
Worried that Schuyler really couldn't think about it for a while, taking advantage of the above-mentioned efforts, he directly announced the news of his mutiny to the direct detachment.
After praying for a while, Hecai tried his best to suppress the uneasiness in his heart, and connected the phone.
"I am the Crane of the Staff Department."
He tried his best to speak in a calm voice. Nurkic heard the words and said, "Lieutenant General He, I am Nurkic, adjutant of Zhanye Detachment!"
"Nurkic?! Why are you?"
He never expected that the "whistleblower" in Zhanye's detachment would be Nurkic, but she suddenly said: "What am I thinking, you are the son of Lieutenant General Lawrence.
Tell me, how bad is it now? "
In fact, Nurkic has Crane's private phone. After all, he worked as a part-time chief of staff before, and the two need to contact frequently to confirm some details. If Nurkic wants to find Crane, the fastest way should be to use his private phone. right.
But Crane didn't think much about it. After all, maybe Nurkic was showing his attitude? Using Zhan Ye Detachment's official phone bug to report, perhaps he wanted to say in the subtext that he was still loyal to the navy.
Nurkic frowned, feeling that Crane's attitude was a bit strange, but he didn't have so much time at this time, he quickly replied: "The current situation is very bad, and the franchise countries, branches, and detachments on the New World side may face difficulties at any time." Danger."
"What?!"
The crane in the headquarters stood up immediately after hearing the words, with a look of surprise on her face. Could it be that she really underestimated the impact of this incident on Skyler, and she really wanted to attack the alliance countries and her colleagues for this? !
He took a deep breath, let himself calm down a little, and said, "You try to delay the time as much as possible, and try to find a way to tell Lao Bo about your current situation and the route you are traveling, and Lao Bo will figure out a way."
"I'm afraid the delay can't be delayed any longer. I'll fax you the forecasted route map at the same time. The commander's opinion is to let the headquarters evacuate the branch detachment on duty in the shortest possible time.
At the same time, please help me to confirm whether there are any franchised countries on the road map, or missions on missions, or caravans on voyages. I can't observe them now. "
As Nurkic said, he faxed the route prediction map drawn by the reconnaissance team to the fax phone bug in Crane's office, but Crane was a little unresponsive and said:
"Your officer's opinion? Where are you now? What happened?"
He just realized that he might have misunderstood the idea, and it will take some time to fax at this time. Although he felt that Lieutenant General He's attitude was too strange, Nurkic still explained:
"Our exact location is unknown now. Just now we encountered a giant elephant tens of thousands of meters high. We are now on the back of the elephant and are observing the route of the giant elephant to prevent it from hurting others."
"A giant elephant tens of thousands of meters high?"
Crane frowned and kept reminiscing, as if he had a little impression, but shouldn't this kind of creature be a legend, why did it appear at this time?
However, Crane also heaved a sigh of relief. The actions of Skyler and the Zhanye detachment showed that they did not seem to have the idea of rebellion. What they did immediately was also a task that a navy should do.
Crane suddenly remembered the behavior of Skyler who suddenly hung up the phone before. She was very angry and worried at the time, worried that Skyler would not think about it and really acted as a traitor to the Navy.
After that, she kept calling Skyler one after another, but no one answered, which made He even more worried, but now, she suddenly felt a little guilty.
Because she thought of a possibility that Skyler hung up the phone, not just because she didn't want to communicate with her, or hanging up was Skyler's subjective behavior.
But the reason why Skyler didn't answer the phone when she called several times in a row after that might not be because she imagined that Skyler was too angry, but because of the sudden situation that made her unable to answer the phone.
And no matter how bastard Skyler is, she, Karp, Zefa, and the yellow ape are the people brought out by them. No matter how bastard they are, they will never really directly betray the navy.
Shaking his head, at this time, the faxed road map was finally printed out, Crane looked at the road map and said: "If there is nothing wrong with the road map drawn by you, then...
The only risk is Dragon Palace Kingdom and New Fishman Island, but there seems to be a little change there today, and I don't know the specifics.
The old body will evacuate the ships on the route as soon as possible, and notify the Dragon Palace Kingdom, you should observe more, and report to the old body immediately if there is any change! "
"Yes! Lieutenant General He, then you should inform me first, and I will continue to observe."
"Well, pay more attention to safety."
After Crane finished speaking, he hung up the phone, and then took the road map that he had just agreed to, and went to the staff headquarters, and quickly confirmed the branches and detachments that might be on the route, as well as the missions and caravans of the franchise countries.
At the same time, several areas that were drawn on the road map were observed and used as reference points, and more accurate drawings were quickly restored on the detailed sea chart.
He asked the Navy of the General Staff to quickly notify the various branches and detachments, as well as the caravans and missions of the allied countries, and he came to the marshal's office with the chart.
It is rare that Sakaski is not working, because he has to leave for Mariejoia in one week, and the most important thing now is to be busy with the few proposals at the World Conference.
In addition, it is to recite the speech written by Schuyler for him. After all, this is his first time to participate in the World Conference as a marshal, so naturally he needs to be more thoughtful.
Of course, he was also thinking about how to anger the five old stars at the World Conference and reprimand them for their distrust of naval heroes, but he couldn't think of any punchlines.
Especially the speech that Schuyler gave him was constantly recited in his mind, which made Sakalski even more upset. After all, from the speech, he saw Schuyler's sincerity for the naval mission.
But such a sincere admiral suffered such unfair treatment because of the suspicion of some idiots. The most uncomfortable thing was that, as the admiral himself, he couldn't think of a way to relieve Skyler.
Sakaski felt that the navy of the headquarters had looked at him very strangely in the past few days, and now public opinion has been stirred up in a small area of the headquarters.
More and more people have heard the "insider story" and know that Schuyler was unable to attend the World Conference because of the suspicion of the World Government.
And some people also put forward the view that "suspicion of Lieutenant General Skyler is essentially distrust of the Navy". This view is very popular in the headquarters.
After all, there are two important reasons why the headquarters can be relocated from Marlin Vandor to the former G-1 branch of the New World. The first is that Skyler fought for this sea area in the righteous expedition.
Twenty years of continuous construction gave the G-1 branch the foundation to transform into a new naval headquarters, so they were able to relocate to the new world in such a short period of time and strive to expand the sea area under the jurisdiction of the navy.
The second reason is that Skyler killed Whitebeard in the war on the top, so that the navy not only has an acre of land in the New World, but a whole space to play.
If Whitebeard can't be killed, they won't be able to swallow the waters of the Whitebeard Pirates, and their navy won't be able to establish 25 branches in the New World, and they won't be able to garrison a large number of troops to look deeper into the New World.
It can be said that Lieutenant General Schuyler created the navy's growth and development opportunities in the past 20 years, but at this moment they heard that the world government is suspicious of Lieutenant General Schuyler. How can they bear it?
Every navy in the headquarters is constantly working hard for the construction of the navy, expanding the jurisdiction and protection of the navy, especially Vice Admiral Schuyler, who will only live above the tall Mary Gioia, and will not do anything about personnel. Why should the world government suspect Admiral Skyler and not trust their navy?
This kind of emotion became more and more intense when it encountered the "incompetence" of Marshal Sakalski. Now many navies, even recruits, are discussing this matter.
Even some navies of the new generation period, and a large number of recruits, are saying that if Lieutenant General Schuyler became the marshal, then their navy would not be so weak.
Weak This is the first time someone in Akainu has used this adjective to describe himself.
"How could I be an admiral at such a damn time."
He murmured and complained that he knew all about the recent situation in the headquarters, and he didn't even want to know if it was possible.
But the dark horse from the Naval Criminal Investigation Department has been making small reports to him during this time, hoping that he can give him authority to deal with public opinion issues within the navy.
But Sakalski still didn't agree in the end, because Sakalski felt that if he gave the dark horse this authority, would it mean that he also recognized Mary Gioia's bastards?
He is no longer the ignorant young general twenty or thirty years ago! Back then, he might have supported the nonsense of the world government, because the Tianlong people were the masters of this world.
At that time, he could unquestionably reprimand Dorag's idea as a completely wrong idea, but he can't do it now, because as his status climbed, he saw the dirty side of the world government.
Although he still feels that what Drago is doing is a crime, he is now judging on his own, rather than the ideological judgment imposed on him by the world government through propaganda.
Sakaski gave a definition of his own changes, that is, he has become more tolerant.
It's not the kind of weakness and tolerance that easily tolerates others, but that he has now agreed that there is not only one correct thought in this world.
Today, he no longer only agrees with absolute justice. He also agrees with the justice of the former Marshal Sengoku King, the justice of the new general Fujitora, and the justice within Schuyler's ability.
Everyone can be right, as long as it makes the Navy and the world a better place.
But a person who is doing the right thing will encounter criticism from people who have nothing to do, and he wants to do something about it, but there is no way, which makes Akainu feel struggling.
"Tuk Tuk Tuk ~"
With his back to the office door, Sakaski, who "faced the wall and thought about the past", did not notice the arrival of the crane, and the crane is a person who abides by etiquette, so naturally he would not walk in directly.
Especially not long ago, she was so angry that Sakaski entered her office without knocking, so even though the situation was quite urgent, Crane still knocked on the door.
"Come in."
Sakaski tidied up his mood, turned his chair, saw a somewhat anxious crane, and asked, "What happened?"
"Skyler encountered a giant elephant tens of thousands of meters high. There is almost no relevant information. Skyler and the others are acting independently. This is the road map for the giant elephant. Do you have any arrangements on your side that will be involved? ?”
Although Crane has already asked the Navy of the General Staff to confirm the affairs of the various branches and detachments, the Navy does not only have these branches and detachments on the surface, but also many secret, confidential and even top-secret troops.
In addition to the members and officers of these troops, only Marshal Sakaski knows about them. Of course, Sengoku also knows about them, but he is in Marin Fando, and there is no new situation in the past year.
Hearing that Schuyler encountered a strange "enemy" as expected, Sakaski frowned tightly, especially when he thought of Schuyler's encounter with injustice, but he still devoted himself to serving the navy, he was even more distressed.
However, he didn't say anything, and his attention was quickly shifted to the chart that He handed over. After scanning it around, he said, "There is no problem with the arrangement on my side. What about the branch detachment and the franchise country?"
"I've had someone to confirm and notify the alienation."
After Crane finished speaking, he pointed to the New Murloc Island in the windless belt, and said, "Dragon Palace Kingdom is on the way of the giant elephant. Do we need to prepare?"
"Just cooperate fully with Lieutenant General Skyler, but here."
Sakasky thought about it, and then said: "I remember that Ace and Luffy are all here. You can remind Ace that if the situation is not good, don't ignore the ban, just enter directly and assist in the evacuation!"
"Luffy. It's this kid again, and Ace, he's been squatting there for half a month, right?"
He murmured and shook his head, these two brothers, no, it should be said that they are from the Meng Qi family, no matter what time they are, they can't make people worry.
Crane left Sakaski's office very quickly. After thinking about it, Sakaski walked out of the office to inform Huang Yuan and the others to be ready to sail at any time.
He himself wanted to go sailing, but he didn't have his own detachment anymore, and at the same time, the headquarters also needed to keep manpower to garrison, but in the best case, it was better not to cause chaos.
After all, the World Conference is about to begin. If something happens at this time, it is not good for the Navy. In addition to this emergency, Skyler also participated or even led it.
At that time, it may be labeled again, and there is no chance to refute or fight, that would be too bad.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"
At this time, on the back of the elephant master, Enilu, who had a relaxed and enjoying face, was startled, and his figure instantly turned into lightning.
