Chapter 541 Sophistication(1/2)

Skyler looked at Smog who suddenly ran to his warship and was a little confused. One thing she could rule out was that Smog was definitely not trying to come and take a cigarette.

Smoger was not that brave yet. If he were so brave, he would have never had the chance to be a navy.

However, after experiencing this series of small things, Smoger became even more mute. Skyler looked at him and asked, "Are you looking for me?"

Upon hearing this, Smoger nodded. He was indeed here to find Skyler. Smoger admitted this very openly. Skyler continued to ask, "Is there anything wrong?"

"I...I..."

Smoger became shy again, Skyler frowned slightly, but he didn't guide him. After all, that was not something she would do. Unless she was guiding someone to jump into the pit, she was really not that...intellectual.

Skyler was not in a hurry, so she could wait for Smoger's answer slowly. Smoger had struggled for a long time before speaking:

"Lt. General Skyler, you said before, if...if I want to be a general, you will write me a letter of recommendation."

"I thought this was something extraordinary. But with your performance today and your past achievements, even if you don't need my recommendation letter, you will be promoted to a general, right?"

Skyler asked strangely, after all, Smoger's performance in the East China Sea in recent years is obvious to all, and today's war has proved that he has enough strength to serve as a general.

Therefore, Skyler's letter of recommendation can at most add icing on the cake. The process will just go faster and will not affect the judgment of the Crane or the Warring States Period. Therefore, it is a bit of a loss to fulfill her favor at this time.

Smoge nodded. In fact, after the war ended today, He came to see him and even asked him to participate in the post-war general meeting, which shows that the headquarters has planned to promote him to general.

But he came to fulfill the promise...Smoger looked at Skyler, took a deep breath and said, "In fact...Lt. General Skyler, I am here to ask you to give the letter of recommendation to Tina."

Tina did not qualify to participate in the post-war general meeting, which means that she is not the one who can be recommended. This is actually very normal. After all, Tina has not performed particularly well.

But as Tina's friend, Smog knew how much effort and preparation Tina had made to become a general. Tina definitely had the ability to be a general. It was just that Tina, who has always been in the second line, had no attention.

Tina helped him too much Smog. He wanted to do all his efforts to help his friends, even if he asked him to come to Skyler and change the candidate for the recommendation letter.

This is a very excessive thing. After all, Skyler proposed that he could write a letter of recommendation to Smoger, which is a kind of "gratitude" rather than an exchange.

In other words, Smog is now the ignorant child who is picky and picky about gifts. This accident will offend Skyler, and even Tina will be disgusted.

But he really didn't want Tina to continue waiting, especially Tina was the one who kept pulling him back to the right side of his naval career. If Tina hadn't been Tina, Smog felt that he would have been devastated long ago.

In Smog's heart, Tina is more qualified to become a general than him, at least... she should not become a general later than him.

Skyler also looked at Smoger at this time. She understood why Smoger was so nervous. After thinking for a while, Skyler nodded and said, "Okay."

After saying that, Skyler nodded and then turned around and left, but Smog was stunned. He never thought Skyler would agree so easily.

He prepared a lot of words to convince Skyler. He even did everything Tina contributed to the Navy in front of Skyler, but Skyler actually agreed now?

Smoger may not know that Skyler's recommendation letter was not particularly precious in her own mind, or... she did not mind recommending a navy qualified to become a general.

Because the general only represents an open recognition. Not becoming a general does not mean that he is weak or has insufficient contribution to the navy.

If promoting generals is the only way for every navy, then the captains of each team of the Zhanye Detachment will become generals, but sometimes the navy needs them not to become generals.

Skyler understood this principle, and everyone in the Zhanye Detachment also understood this principle, but Smog was difficult to understand.

Of course, Skyler would not feel that every navy needs to sacrifice his personal future to the members of the Zhanye Detachment in this way. She even kicked out the young people like Luo and Ace who were willing to stay in the Zhanye Detachment.

Because they became generals, these people played far more than they were in the Zhanye Detachment. At this time, the Navy needed them to become generals.

As for Tina... she has come step by step. She does not fit her "sacrifice" system and aims at generals. Therefore, there is no problem with such a navy becoming a general.

In addition, it was not very difficult for Skyler to recommend a navy as a general, although in name, it was a letter of recommendation she wrote.

But then, let Nurkic do it for him. Skyler's seal as the chief is in Nurkic's hands. Even if Skyler writes it himself, he has to ask Nurkic to stamp it. It's so troublesome.

It’s better to just hand it over to Nurkic. Nurkic’s writing ability is much better than her.

Smoger watched Skyler leave blankly, and even forgot what to say. After a while, he seemed to realize something, and a happy smile appeared on his face, which turned into a thick smoke and disappeared.

Skyler was half lying on the beach chair on the deck. She did not choose to go home to rest. In order to fight the war, the entire living area and town were cleared.

If she goes home to sleep, she will not be able to find anything to eat after waking up. Instead of getting up, she will have to find something to eat after waking up, she might as well rest on the warship directly.

Anyway, more than half of her spent the past twenty years on warships, and she had already adapted to such a life. If she returned to the land to sleep, she would feel that the ground was shaking very seriously.

This is the common distress of many people who live on the boat all year round. Others feel the surroundings shaking when they get on the boat, and the land is stable.

But the people living on the boat are just the opposite. Their bodies have adapted to this shaking, and their bodies are unconsciously making feedback to offset the shaking.

Once you return to the ground, your body will not be able to adjust for a while, and you will continue to sway yourself. This situation where I move and don’t move will make people feel shaking.

Of course, it only takes a few days for this symptom to subside, or if you encounter something that attracts attention enough, you will also ignore these small details, such as fighting.

Skyler lay on a beach chair, squinting while waiting for his hair to dry. In fact, using a hair dryer is the best, because hair drying by the sea breeze will feel sticky.

But Skyler was too tired today, or in other words, there were too many information and emotions to digest.

In addition, the ice around Marinfando is melting at this time. With the sunset and evening breeze, it is difficult for people to have the motivation to move. Lying down is the most suitable thing.

Gradually, Skyler fell into a dream, which was a rare thing. Skyler himself forgot how long he had been and could still dream while sleeping.

Skyler tried hard to remember everything about this extremely rare dream, but the fact is that she couldn't remember anything, and even when she woke up, she could only remember clearly that she had a dream.

But she had no idea what dream she had and could not recall it at all.

Skyler sat up straight, constantly trying to recall what dream he had, but the harder he worked, the further away the dream was. Even Skyler doubted whether he had dreamed.

Stopped this useless work, Skyler looked around. It was obviously late at night, but it was not dim. Marinfando's direction was very bright, and the entire building seemed to have only one room without lights on.

The surrounding warships were also very bright, and some detachments were even having dinner together. The Zhanye Detachment was very calm. On the one hand, they had already had dinner together, and on the other hand... everyone wanted to rest.

The Navy won this war easily, but it did not mean that everyone involved in the war was relaxed. Even Skyler would feel tired, let alone others.

The deck was quiet, which made Skyler very uncomfortable. She stood up and looked at it, and saw only a figure still on the deck. Skyler walked over and asked, "Brooke, don't you sleep?"

Brooke was holding a mug with "Good Night" written outside, and the cup was still his favorite drink - milk.

Brooke took a sip of milk and then said: "Sleep is to rest the muscles, internal organs and brain, but there are no more of these things."

Seeing that Brooke could still talk these skeleton jokes tirelessly, Skyler smiled. Brooke was a very special person. Wherever he was, it was difficult for people to have negative emotions.

This is not brought by his fruit ability, but his innate talent. He is born to be a person who spreads happiness, but even such a person will experience a lot of suffering and loneliness.

This kind of injustice of fate exists, and it can even be said to be universal. The hemp rope is too picky and the details are broken, and the bad luck only seeks people who are suffering, not just a joke.

Brooke slowly turned his head and faced Skyler. After a while, he said, "Madam Sir, don't you know what you should do next?"

Skyler nodded. To be honest, she was indeed a little confused. She has been working hard for a goal in the past twenty years, but today, the goal was executed by her.

When people have goals, they are full of motivation every day. This goal can be big or small, from the stars and seas to the small, maybe just going downstairs to have breakfast as early as possible.

But once you lose your goal, you will fall into a state of "skepticism". You may know that you still have a lot of things to complete, but you just can't be interested.

This is true for Skyler now. In addition to killing Whitebeard, she still has a lot of things to do. As a navy, she should implement justice. As a navy general, she has the entire Whitebeard Pirates waiting for her to clear it.

Even, as a comrade of Dorag, she has greater interests and contributions to her participation and contributions, but she just can't raise interest.

And she will doubt these things and execute justice. She has been executing justice for twenty years, but every year, the pirates she sees will not decrease.

To expand territory for the navy? The four seas and the first half of the great waterway are also within the jurisdiction of the navy, but those in the navy's waters may not be happy, and even prevent some people from going to sea to be pirates.

As for Dorag's ideal, the twenty kings who created the world government all resisted for the sea, but in the end, the world became like this.

In his heart, he unconsciously doubted everything he should do, which made Skyler feel unprecedented fatigue and tirelessness for no reason.

If this happens to someone else, Skyler can give a perfect adjective, that is pretentious.

But it happened to her at this moment. As an insider, she became unaware of it at all.

Brooke pondered for a while before saying, “Sometimes we don’t need to think about what we have to do, and living every day is actually a very difficult thing.

And if we can live every day well, we may find the fun, and no matter how bad it is, we can also welcome the coming new day with a better attitude."

"I don't know...I've forgotten how to live a good day."

Skyler said, his fingers passing through his hair, opening up the hair that was somewhat woven because it was air-dried in half dry condition, and then said, "Can you give me some practical advice? Brooke."

Brooke reached out and scratched the crack in his forehead, then said, "You can try the music..."

“pass.”

Skyler waved her hand. She was not interested in music. She just liked the passionate tunes. She neither loved the music nor had any appreciation for the music itself.

Brooke was disgusted by the first suggestion, and then he asked, "Ms. Sir, have you ever had any hobbies? Even a long time ago?"

Skyler thought for a while and said, "I have had many hobbies, such as various toys, such as finding a pile of sandpaper, just to polish something smoothly, such as reading comics..."

As she spoke, Skyler stopped, because in an instant, too much interest came to her mind, but she had never devoted herself to anything she had said, and if she had said it all, it might be dawn.

Brooke nodded and said, "How about starting these over again?"

"Do you play with toys? It seems that my age is a bit unsuitable?"

Skyler teased, but Brooke shook his head and said, "If you want to define what a person should do by age, then what you should do now... is dead ~"

“Hahaha~”

Skyler smiled as he patted Brooke's bones, then looked at the light in the distance with a smile, and said, "I will try it as you do."

However, I remembered something that I always wanted to do, but never had a chance."

“What is it?”

"Forging, that should be very interesting. Didn't you say you want to create a new sword? Tomorrow we will go to the Forging Shop, and I will personally create a famous sword for you!"

Skyler said, smiling expectantly. Brooke looked at Skyler, a little confused when he heard this.
