EBE Chapter 172 Kuzan, I am the Marshal!
Chapter 172 Kuzan, I am the Marshal!
"We can't touch Princess Vivi and the Celestial Dragons. I remember that Boa Hancock joined Allen in Marinford, right?"
Akainu glanced at the senior naval officers in front of him, and finally fixed his gaze on Aokiji.
"Since Boa Hancock has defected to Allen, she is the enemy of our navy, and there is no need for their Nine Snake Island to exist."
"Aokiji, take two lieutenant generals and launch a demon-slaying order directly against Nine Snake Island and wipe them off the map!"
At this time, the murderous intent on Akainu's face could no longer be hidden. There was a hint of ferocity in his gloomy expression, and his clenched fists made a sound of bones rubbing against each other.
Hearing his words, everyone present was stunned. They didn't expect Akainu to have such a big reaction to Eren's actions this time.
But after a few seconds, Aokiji frowned and shook his head, with some dissatisfaction in his tone.
"It's better not to do this! Our navy's reputation is at its lowest point right now. The previous incidents with O'Hara and Xi Hai had a huge impact! If we continue to attack civilians..."
"so what!"
Before Aokiji could finish his words, Akainu interrupted him and stood up suddenly.
"Justice will never compromise with the evil party, no matter how much it costs!"
This sentence choked Aokiji. He wanted to say something, but looking at Akainu's expression at this moment, he hesitated and didn't say it.
"But Sakaski, there is still a problem."
Vice Admiral Tsuru stood up in a calm tone. Although Akainu had become the admiral, her words as the chief of staff still carried some weight.
"Alan is too powerful. If we attack the civilians of Nine Snake Island who are dependent on him, and he also attacks the member states of the World Government or the ordinary soldiers of our navy, then we will definitely lose more than we gain!"
"After all, with his strength, even if we were led by a general, it would be difficult for anyone except Borsalino to escape!"
"That's exactly what I mean!"
A trace of ferocity appeared on Akainu's face.
"If this method can be used to get Allen out, that would be great. From now on, every navy ship must be equipped with explosive rocks as standard! If Allen shows up, he must pay the price!"
The pupils of all the high-ranking naval officers present shrank instantly. No one would have thought that Akainu would be so crazy!
"Sakaski, are you crazy? What are our navy soldiers to you? Bait to attract Allen's attention? Or tools for you to complete your attack and inflict harm on Allen? They are the cornerstone of our navy!"
Even the hawkish Vice Admirals Doberman and Spider-Man, who were on the same side as Akainu, looked at each other in confusion, some of them disagreeing with Sakaski's decision.
The explosive rock may not kill Allen, but it will definitely kill all the navy soldiers on that ship!
This idea sounds creepy and chilling!
"You all disagree?"
Akainu glanced at the senior naval officers present. This idea was already extremely extreme, and no one dared to express support at this time.
"Everyone, Allen is definitely the biggest obstacle to our navy's implementation of justice, so we must eradicate him!"
Even though everyone present was skeptical and opposed, Akainu still looked at them one by one with a cold face, not giving in at all.
"If necessary, even if it means risking my life, I can be used as bait to carry out the plan to kill Alan!"
"As long as we can eradicate him, all the sacrifices will be worth it!"
"besides…"
His eyes swept across the faces of Aokiji, Kizaru and Vice Admiral Tsuru, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
"Kuzan, I am the marshal!"
"Sakaski, you're going to regret this!"
Aokiji stood up from his seat, turned around, opened the door and walked out. The rest of the people looked at each other, not knowing what to do.
The admiral and the new marshal directly confronted each other in the office, which made them more or less at a loss.
The navy has always been divided into hawks and doves, led by Akainu and Aokiji respectively. Although there has never been a direct conflict between the two sides, they have no good feelings towards each other.
Logically speaking, Akainu's decision this time should be supported by all the Hawks, but his idea is too crazy. No one wants to travel with a device in the ship that can blow up an entire ship of navy!
Not to mention the doves!
Not to mention installing explosive rocks, they even rejected the plan of attacking the civilians of Nine Snake Island first to attract Allen!
For a villain like Allen, those of them in the navy will naturally do their best to catch him, but they will not let ordinary civilians suffer in the process!
On this point, the hawks and doves reached a rare consensus that the marshal could not be allowed to continue with such crazy ideas!
Seeing that the temperature in the conference room had dropped to freezing point, Zephyr, who was sitting next to him, hesitated for a moment, then stood up and looked at Akainu.
"Sakaski, Allen killed my best friend. I want to bring him to justice, but we can't use the lives of the navy as bait!"
"Our image among the public has already plummeted. If we continue to do this, we will be criticized by the soldiers within the navy!"
"When that happens, internal and external troubles will truly be the navy's biggest crisis."
Zefa was reluctant to say more to Sakaski, but after all, he was once an admiral who had fought in the navy for decades and did not want to see the navy decline like this.
Akainu took a deep look at Zephyr who stood up. This old guy's strength has now declined to the level of an elite vice admiral, and he still relies on his seniority to give orders to the marshal. It is really too annoying!
It was He who sensitively noticed Akainu's expression and quickly stood in front of Zephyr, blocking his gaze from Akainu.
"Sakaski, we can actually find Alan without using such extreme methods!"
Seeing that Akainu's expression had eased, Hecai hurriedly continued, saying that a new emperor appoints new ministers, and she was afraid that she would not be able to sit in the position of chief of staff for much longer.
"Look at all the lawless things that guy has done since he showed up. He's not someone who knows how to hide at all!"
"This kind of person is always very high-profile in everything he does. Furthermore, his next target is definitely the New World. So as long as we pay more attention to the movements of the New World, it should be easy to find him!"
"I hope your judgment is correct. If not, the plan will continue."
Akainu was silent for a while, looked at Crane expressionlessly, then turned and left the house.
