Chapter 72 Adding insult to injury

The start time of the ‘Supreme Meeting of the Navy’ is 9 o’clock sharp. It is actually just a little past 8:30 now. There are still more than 20 minutes before the start, but the general officers are obviously very punctual. Those who should come have all arrived at this time.

“Since everyone is here, there is no need to wait any longer. Let’s start.” Marshal Kong sat in the position facing the gate and said to the gate.

The navy soldiers guarding the gate immediately closed the gate after hearing this.

“This meeting was initiated by Vice Admiral ‘Black Bat’ and I finally decided to hold it... Some people present may have heard about the agenda of the meeting in advance, but for the sake of those who are still unclear, I will explain it in detail here.” Marshal Kong said solemnly.

The meeting room was quiet, and everyone was waiting for Marshal Kong’s next words.

“Two days ago, a ‘celestial dragon’ was offended in the [Sabaody Archipelago]…” Marshal Kong began to narrate the whole story, trying to describe it in the most concise language, without any personal emotional tendencies, just roughly reproducing the whole process of the matter.

Of course, the process omitted the arrogance of the 'celestial dragons', because it was not convenient to say it in such an occasion, and even if it was not said, how many people present here did not know the nature of the 'celestial dragons'? You can restore the general truth by directly imagining it yourself.

"That's probably what happened. Now the people have been brought back by Vice Admiral 'Black Bat', the three people over there." Marshal Kong pointed to the three teenagers standing behind Vice Admiral 'Black Bat' who was sitting in a special seat next to him, and continued, "The reason why Vice Admiral 'Black Bat' initiated this meeting is because one of the three of them has the potential to be a general. Vice Admiral 'Black Bat' believes that the navy needs to treat such talents with caution and should not deal with them casually, so he wants to discuss it through this meeting."

"Potential for a general? Tsk... just these three little ghosts?" Marshal Kong's voice fell, and a wretched sneer suddenly came, and many eyes in the conference hall immediately looked in the direction of the sound, but saw that the one who spoke was Vice Admiral 'Yellow Monkey' Borsalino, the top vice admiral who was rumored to have been designated as one of the next admirals of the navy.

"Are you questioning my judgment, Borsalino?" the skinny old man, Vice Admiral Black Bat, asked gloomily.

"Don't be angry, Vice Admiral Black Bat. I'm just talking about the facts. I don't mean to target anyone. I've seen these three little brats before. Maybe they all have some talent, but it's a bit exaggerated to say that any of them has the potential to be a general..." Yellow Monkey shrugged.

As for Vice Admiral Black Bat's unhappiness, he didn't take it seriously.

Although Yellow Monkey doesn't usually show his arrogance, he is more arrogant than anyone else in his bones. No matter what emotions he shows, it's just his way of dealing with the world like a game.

Afraid? This emotion seems to have not appeared in his dictionary for a long time.

"At the age of eight, he obtained the status of a six-star bounty hunter in the Bounty Hunter Guild by his own ability, and suppressed a team of 'Tianlongren' bodyguards with an average strength of more than colonel level. Tell me, if this is not considered the potential of a general, then what is it?!" Vice Admiral Black Bat slapped the armrest of the chair and asked sternly.

"Huh?" Hearing the words of Vice Admiral Black Bat, Yellow Monkey was stunned for a moment.

He knew that the person with the potential of a general that Vice Admiral Black Bat was referring to was Lei Fa, and it was precisely because of this that he suddenly spoke up to sabotage.

Because he had seen Lei Fa's strength, even against Smoker, he needed to rely on wisdom to win. It was too ridiculous to say that he had the potential of a general, right?

You know, even Smoker, in the current situation, is far from being called a general, and is still far from a real monster-level genius.

Therefore, regarding the statement that Lei Fa has the potential to be a general, ‘Yizaru’ directly assumed that this was because he was the adopted son of Sengoku, so Vice Admiral ‘Black Bat’ wanted to help Sengoku and fabricated it.

It is not surprising that he would think so, because Lei Fa’s strength exploded in the half year after the duel with Smoker. The biggest leap was after going to Shabaodi and getting a year of training time in ‘Shokurinji’. In that year, Lei Fa not only had a leap in strength, but also had an extra year of growth time out of thin air.

Because in that year of training, this world was equivalent to only a moment.

It was these factors that led ‘Yizaru’ to misjudge Lei Fa’s strength.

On the other hand, he had no way of knowing that during the time Lei Fa went to Shabaodi, he also had the identity of ‘Mr.V’ and became a super star of the ‘Bounty Hunter Guild’. Even, he had the experience of taking advantage of two monster-level geniuses, Marco the Phoenix and Hercules the Machine Fury. Yellow Monkey was not aware of all these things.

If he knew these things, even if he wanted to take advantage of Lei Fa's misfortune, he would not choose to attack Lei Fa on the issue of whether he had the potential to be a general.

"Borsalino, I have verified whether the statement about the potential to be a general is true. Vice Admiral Black Bat did not exaggerate. You don't have to question it." Marshal Kong spoke at this time and made the final decision.

"Yo yo yo, is that so? I made a mistake. I hope Lieutenant General Black Bat has more people and doesn't want to be on the same level as me." "Kizaru" said wretchedly.

Lieutenant General 'Black Bat' snorted coldly and did not reply to his words.

At this moment, another heavyweight spoke.

"So what if you really have the potential to be a general? The 'Celestial Dragons' are not to be offended. This is an iron law set by the World Government. Can high talent violate the will of the World Government? It's ridiculous..." The one who spoke this time was It is the top lieutenant general, 'Akainu' Sakaski, who is rumored to be the next navy admiral together with 'Kizaru' Borsalino!

'Kizaru' spoke out because Lei Fa had offended him before, and he was notorious for holding grudges, so he was unwilling to let go of this opportunity to add insult to injury.

'Akainu' is not the case. He has no grievances with the three of Leifa, and he does not speak with any personal bias when speaking at this time. It is just because his philosophy does not allow him to sit back and watch the three of Leifa escape punishment!
