Chapter five hundred and fifty fifth vote(1/2)
The next morning, everyone in the conference room of the headquarters felt that Lieutenant General Skyler, who had just returned from the New World, was emitting murderous aura all over his body.
Many generals secretly guessed in their hearts that it was the Warring States period who transferred Skyler back from the new world, which aroused her dissatisfaction. After all, this was a navy general who was keen on executing justice better than everything.
But there is also an insider, that is Zefa. After all, after lying to pay for his life last night, Zefa, as a teacher, naturally chose to cheat his students.
The account was settled by Skyler. The three of them had a great time eating last night. They didn't consider the price at all when they ordered the order. This led to the fact that Skyler's wallet, which was used to being stuffed, was almost empty before paying the bill when they checked out.
Spending money is one thing, and spending money is another thing. Skyler was so angry that he couldn't even sleep last night, so he came to the conference room so early today.
When the Crane and the Warring States Period came in, they were surprised to see Skyler there. After all, when did Skyler arrive earlier? When did Skyler get there? When did Skyler exuded the murderous aura, the two of them became instantly satisfied.
Sure enough, Skyler also grew up. After all, although this referendum was a collusion with Skyler, as usual, it did not conform to Skyler's willful idea.
After all, if the referendum and execution justice can be chosen at will, then the general must have chosen the latter. This time, she is considered to be forced to recruit her back, and her dissatisfaction is correct.
But because they had passed the series before, Crane and Warring States Period were worried that Skyler would be exposed, but... Skyler's gloomy anger and murderous aura are perfectly in line with the character design!
Skyler still grew up to be an excellent general, and deserves encouragement.
After the two arrived, the conference room became much quieter, and many generals looked at the Warring States Period, and they looked a little strange. After all, everyone knows that the Warring States Period is about to step down.
In other words, this marshal can't work for long, just like a teacher said, "I will retire after teaching you this class." The students miss you and are inevitably disrespectful."
The Warring States Period didn't care. After all, he wanted to retire now, go fishing, and sit and watch the world, and move forward according to the direction he guided when he left office. Isn't that kind of happiness of sitting and watching the clouds roll and unfolding than scratching his head in the marshal's office?
After all, there is enough capital to brag, so why bother to continue to endure hardships?
These people think that he has no power after resigning, and he still laughs at the pressure of these young people. It is this group of stupid people who don’t even understand life that look at him with this kind of eyes.
The old guys of the same generation in the conference room, even Zefa and Kapu, were a little envious at this time and looked at the Warring States Period jealously. After all, they were all people who have devoted their lives to the Navy. Is it too much to be happy?
At their age, although their habits over the years can still drive them to implement justice and contribute to the construction of the naval forces, to be honest, everyone is tired and tired.
Seeing that his former partner not only retired, but also became glorious, he retired after doing something that attracted attention from the whole world. Who can not envy him?
However, these old guys are too lazy to explain to the young people. After all, if these young people understand, then who will fight against the future navy?
Moreover, when they were young, they were hidden by the previous generation. Only when they were seventy-year-old and eighty years old and were injured could they understand the value of life. Why should they teach these young people? They are not confused.
Just when people of the two ages looked at the Warring States Period's about to retire from their respective eyes, time passed little by little, and the generals gathered more and more.
This time it was not a meeting of all generals. After all, some generals may be too much to force the recruitment when they are carrying out their tasks at the most critical moment.
The reason why she "forced" recruited Skyler was that on the one hand, she had colluded before, Skyler had agreed to come back, and on the other hand, her vote value was too high.
With Skyler's influence in the navy, the vote she cast may influence the decisions of a considerable number of neutral generals, and if he abandons the vote, the impact will also be great.
However, although not all the generals met, basically all the people they could arrive. At this time, the conference room was filled with vast crowds, waiting for the three generals and these three candidates.
Of course, everyone knows that Kizaru directly withdrew from the election, but as a general, he had to participate in this referendum. He didn't even go to roadshows or win over the franchise countries.
When the agreed meeting started, only one minute was left, the three generals Akainu, Kizaru and Aokiji finally arrived. Kizaru walked between the two and felt extremely uncomfortable.
Half of his body was scorched by magma, and half of his body was penetrated by ice. He Kizaru remembered that the two levels of ice and fire did not mean this.
When the three generals stepped into the conference room, the already quiet conference room became quieter and the atmosphere gradually became solemn.
The three generals sat in the predetermined position, which was also a symbol of the beginning of the meeting. However, this time the person with PPT fruit ability was not there, but it seemed that he had already reached the rank of military being able to attend the meeting.
However, because this meeting was special, it could only be hosted by the Warring States Period. After all, no one was afraid of offending anyone, and if he said anything wrong, there would be no consequences.
At this time, the Warring States Period also stood up, walked up to the podium with two file bags, and put down the two documents. The Warring States Period said: "I believe that my colleagues know our purpose here.
I have resigned from the post of marshal. I have asked you to come here today to select the next marshal.
The votes of the world government and the franchise countries are already in my hands. Next, our navy's own votes will not be changed or invalidated after the vote ends today.
I didn’t waste your time much. After all, we probably didn’t know about my upcoming resignation today, so... think about the candidate you want to vote in your heart.
There is no need to make any mystery. After all, we are the last and most direct voting round. Those who support Akainu, please raise your left hand, those who support Aokiji, please raise your right hand."
"What if I support Kizaru?"
Just as the Warring States Period was talking very seriously, Kap suddenly asked, and the Warring States Period was stunned, and then he was furious in an instant. How could Kap not know that Kizaru had withdrawn from the election?
However, it is impossible to say such things directly, so as not to be told by others that the navy generals do not want to be the marshal of the navy, and there may be problems within the navy.
But this bastard Cap still asked such questions at this time, but it was not good to not answer. He coughed lightly and said, "If you support Kizaru, just don't raise your hand.
There is no need to raise your hand in a hurry. I haven’t said the choice of each general for the vote.”
Seeing Karp switched to raise his hands and retracted it, the Warring States Period wanted to fight Karp. This guy was so annoying. Didn’t you see how serious the current occasion is?! Where is Karp dancing aerobics?!
"The vote count of Brigadier General and Major General is one vote, lieutenant general is five votes, and general is ten votes. If you also serve as the chief instructor of the Navy, the Grand Navy Supervisor, the Grand Navy General, and the Marshal, then you will have another ten votes."
After the Warring States Period said that, Karp frowned and said dissatisfiedly: "Who can only have five votes?"
As he said that, Cap looked around and found that besides himself, Zefa, He, Skyler, and the Warring States on the stage had more effective votes than him, and he became dissatisfied instantly.
However, the Warring States Period showed a bastard smile. He deliberately angered Kap. After all, as long as the regulation is properly, it would not affect the fact that giving Kap five or ten votes will be given at all. But the Warring States Period simply won’t give it! I don’t want to give it!
"If there are no other questions, you can start raising your hands to vote."
Ignoring Kap's murmurs, the Warring States period announced directly, but no one raised his hand. After all,... the person who should have made a statement has not yet expressed his opinion.
Kizaru looked back and found that no one raised his hand, and laughed and joked, "Yo hey~ Is it all wanting to be a marshal~"
Everyone knows that this is impossible. With Kizaru's personality, he will not sign the appointment letter to his desk, let alone a campaign. At this time, maybe he just doesn't want to make the atmosphere too solemn.
At this time, except for the three generals who probably wouldn't choose to vote, the rest are those who should be the ones who should be the ones who should be the rhythm of the vote.
After all, whether it is Zefa, He, Karp or Skyler, their decisions will change the direction of many people, but everyone knows that Zefa will not vote, and He and the Warring States Period on the stage may not vote until the end.
Although Cap's status is high, there are probably not many people who will follow him today. Now almost all the generals are waiting for Skyler to vote.
Although most generals believed that Skyler would definitely choose Aokiji, after all, Skyler was also a dove-like general. At this time, many of the dove-like generals had smiles on their faces.
After all, they felt that their side would win, and there were more dove generals than hawks in terms of number. If Skyler supports Aokiji, he would bring the neutral navy over. At that time, their doves would be crushing victory.
In the eyes of the hawkish generals, there was some regret. Skyler was not the general of their faction. Although Skyler usually had a good relationship with them, few people thought Skyler would choose to support Akainu at this time.
The generals who followed Skyler to fight in the New World were very puzzled when they saw the atmosphere stagnation, because they all thought of a possibility that Skyler would not support Aokiji.
After all, if it was really divided according to the previous factions, whether it was for their own interests or reputation, Skyler would definitely have to vote for Aokiji, and there was nothing to hesitate about.
But Skyler's current attitude...is very strange.
At this time, Aokiji also frowned slightly. He did not vote for Raskeller because he knew that people like Skykeller would not change their minds just because they wanted to win over them.
However, when Skyler was in Dan's heart, she was still a little panicked when she would not support his idea. After all, the large granary of the neutral general was almost tied to Skyler's hands.
Whoever she votes for will win, and Skyler has not chosen to vote for herself for a long time, so... maybe it will be cruel.
Akainu's face, which was originally pretending to be calm, also changed a little. Although the two had talked about the marshal, Akainu didn't think Skyler would vote for him.
After all, even from the most superficial perspective, if Skyler does not vote for Aokiji, it is equivalent to betraying his own camp and faction. If Akainu sat in Skyler's position, it would probably be difficult for him to choose to vote for another person.
Although Akainu firmly believed that if he was the marshal, he would definitely do better than Aokiji as the marshal, he was sure, but he could not make others feel confident.
What's more, Akainu would not think that after Aokiji became the marshal, the navy would decline, but it would not flourish as if he had led the navy. Akainu still recognized Aokiji's abilities.
It is impossible for people to have no selfishness at all, especially in the current situation. After all, if Skyler votes for him, it will break the inherent faction in the past and offend Aokiji and a large number of dove-like generals.
And paying so much price just to choose another general who may not be able to do better. Akainu finds it difficult to choose such a choice, let alone others.
But now, there seems to be a little hope, which makes Akainu start to look forward to it and become nervous again. After all, what if it ends up, just because he thinks too much?
Just as countless people were watching, Kizaru suddenly asked, "Skyler Jiang~ Are you a fan of me~"
Skyler's expression, which was originally tense, couldn't hold back at once and almost laughed out loud. This Kizaru was really a master of sport. He would never predict what kind of work he would do.
Skyler wasn't that nervous. After all, she was not worried about breaking the root of the two factions, nor did she care about the thoughts of other generals. As for waiting, it was just pretending to be mysterious.
But unexpectedly, Kizaru broke his defense with just one word. Shaking his head, Skyler raised his hand and made his own decision.
“Wow~”
The moment Skyler voted, the entire conference room seemed to be in a panic. A group of high-ranking generals were constantly making noise like naughty primary school students in the classroom.
After all... Skyler raised his left hand, which means that the person she supports is Akainu. You know, that is Akainu!!! Some dovish generals couldn't hold it in and shouted directly:
"Lieutenant General Skyler, supporting General Aokiji is to raise his right hand, not his left hand!"
But Skyler was unmoved. After all, choosing to vote for Akainu was not a temporary choice, but had already decided a long time ago.
And...Skyler knew that the two people from Tsuru and Warring States Period would bring the votes of Akainu and Aokiji to the same extent, and perhaps to a level of balance with the other two votes in their hands.
In other words, no matter who Skyler votes for, these two will vote for another person, and even control the votes they can control, and balance the entire vote type.
But at this time, the messy sounds in the conference room could not stop. She said a thousand words and said ten thousand, but Skyler still voted for someone she shouldn't have voted for.
Akainu looked at Skyler in surprise at this time, but in surprise, he was also grateful. After all, Skyler voted for him, which was under the pressure of a whole faction.
Aokiji's face looked very ugly. Although he had just guessed that Skyler would not vote for him, when things really happened, he still couldn't accept it peacefully.
Just in the midst of a mess, two more generals made a choice. Ace and Ro, Ace undoubtedly voted for Akainu. After all, Akainu was both his former commander and his teacher.
Therefore, Ace was also included in the hawkish group. It was natural for him to vote for Akainu. If he didn't vote, he would be a rebellious, but what was surprising was Luo's vote.
Luo also raised his left hand, which was very puzzled. After all, Luo had almost no social relationship with Akainu. The only reason for him to vote for Akainu may be to follow the votes and Skyler.
And those generals who followed Skyler to clear the White Bearded Sea in the past six months also made their choices, all of whom chose Akainu, and seemed to follow the votes.
Among the neutral generals, some people began to make choices. Smog and Tina, who were sitting together, raised their left hands.
To be continued...
