Chapter 740 The war begins (page 13)
G5.
"Admiral! All the troops from our headquarters have been assembled and are coming at full speed. It is expected that it will only take one day to reach the G5 sea area. General Kizaru called us on the phone and asked if we are ready."
Penn, who carried the dead wood on his back, quickly ran into the fortress base and reported urgent information to Rorschach who was sitting behind his desk.
Luo Xia nodded and said: "Tell him that the G5 army has already been prepared and is waiting for them to come and join together."
"Yes!" Penn took the order and left.
"Are our G5 troops really dispatched this time?" Skylark, who was acting as a secretary next to Luo Xia, asked softly.
As Rorschach's most trusted person, Skylark was fully involved in the contact between Rorschach and Zefa, as well as subsequent actions. Of course, he knew that even if G5 came out in full force this time, it would not be the NEO Navy they wanted to fight.
Luo Xia shook his head: "No, let Luo stay with his fleet of hearts this time and stay behind G5."
"Ah? General... General, are we staying?" On the sofa, I was still full of expectations for the upcoming battle, thinking that I must perform better on the battlefield this time than that stupid big guy Pamel. Beibo suddenly showed a look of disappointment.
Looking at the bear ears hanging down from his head, Luo Xia couldn't help but smile.
"Well, this time you stay at home. Among the five fleets of G5, your Heart Fleet is the most stable and reliable. With you guarding our home, we can go out to fight with peace of mind. Bebo, I can protect G5. The task is left to you?"
Rorschach looked at Bebo with a serious face and a sincere tone.
"Is our Heart Fleet the most stable and reliable among the five G5 fleets?" Bebo's eyes suddenly became bright.
"Well, the most stable and reliable one." Luo Xia nodded.
"Is it more reliable than Pamel's fleet?"
"Well, it's more reliable than the Brontosaurus fleet."
"Woohoo~, Lieutenant General, did you hear that? Admiral Rorschach said that our Heart Fleet is the most stable and reliable in G5." Bebo was so happy that his face turned red, and he turned to Luo beside him and said.
"Ah." Luo looked calm and continued to look at the new world map on the desktop without raising his head.
Bebo was happy for a while, then remembered that he had not responded to Luo Xia's approval. He immediately stood up, raised his hand in salute and said excitedly: "Please feel free to entrust me with the important task of guarding G5. I promise to complete the task! Absolutely not." A pirate, no, not even a fly would be able to fly to G5 Island.”
"Well, you are very energetic. I believe you can do it."
Rorschach said something approvingly, which made Skylark standing next to him unable to hold back and pursed his lips and smiled secretly.
After Bebo left with great enthusiasm and planned to strengthen the guard work of G5, Luo looked up from the new world map, considered for a while, looked at Luo Xia and said: "Luo Xia, I have to remind you here."
"Huh? What?" Luo Xia put down the document in his hand and looked over in confusion.
Luo said softly: "Not fighting this war with the NEO Navy is just our G5's unilateral opinion and does not represent the opinions of this department. Although you went to Teacher Zefa to arrange something in advance, it is hard to say whether it can be used. Even if it really works and lures the pirates to Totland, the target of our operation may not be transferred from the NEO Navy to the pirates. Maybe the higher-ups will let us bypass it. Pirates, keep going and complete your mission.”
Luo Xia thought for a while and found that Luo's analysis was correct.
Indeed, they don’t want to go to war with G5. Perhaps this is the thought in the hearts of most naval soldiers.
After all, Zefa's influence in the navy is too deep. It can be said that most of the senior generals in the navy today are students taught by Zefa himself.
This even includes the two current navy admirals and the navy marshal.
Although Zefa has defected, he has not targeted the navy so far, nor has he helped others to cause trouble in the sea like the pirates in the New World. Instead, he has gone around to quell disputes in the surrounding sea areas and fight against evil.
Although he is no longer in the navy, everyone's gratitude and admiration for him has not changed.
Now we are going to encircle and suppress the NEO navy led by Zefa. I am afraid that except for a few sailors led by Aramaki who have an indifferent attitude, everyone else is unwilling to do so.
But if the superiors really wanted to fight, the sailors would have no choice but to follow orders.
In such a major action that has already determined the purpose of the war, even the admiral has no power to make temporary changes.
If you want to cancel this war, or change the target of the attack midway, only the Five Old Stars and Akainu as the navy marshal can do it.
After figuring out the key here, Luo Xia immediately understood what Luo Xia really wanted to say.
There was no one else in the office except Rorschach, Skylark, and Luo.
Everyone knows Rorschach's true views on the world government, so there is no evasion.
Luo said directly: "Your daily contact with Teacher Zefa is not hidden, and Marshal Sakaski must have seen it. Therefore, you may waver in this war, or even help the enemy. I think The marshal will definitely have some guesses as well.”
"Sorry, I did lack some consideration."
Rorschach smiled as Luo said this.
In fact, it's not like he hadn't considered this before.
For example, when he was on Punk Hassad Island, he called Zefa directly in front of Akainu.
For example, on G1 Island, he also contacted Zefa in front of Sengoku and Garp.
He could have done this kind of thing secretly in a deserted place afterwards and contacted Zefa privately, but Rorschach did not do that.
Yes, he did it on purpose.
Rorschach wanted to use this obvious method to test Sengoku, Garp, Akainu, and Kizaru, and find out the limit of their tolerance for his behavior.
This method can let Rorschach know what the senior leaders of the headquarters think of them.
What would everyone do if one day they had to show off their cards?
Should he still insist on maintaining the rule of the World Government, or should he turn to himself, join him, break away from the World Government, or even declare war on the World Government?
The bottom line is broken through step by step.
Especially for a wavering person like Kizaru.
Of course, Rorschach did not mess around in front of Kizaru. Although he confessed to Kizaru about letting the bear go, deep down, he was still a little confused about Kizaru. If he really wanted to go out alone, Will Kizaru come together?
Needless to say, Sengoku's soliloquy on Marinefando Island a few days ago was actually meant for Rorschach to hear, so he had made his position clear.
As for Garp, he should also be able to help.
Although the relationship between him and Rorschach is no longer as close as before because of Ace's death, Rorschach knows that in the face of big things, Garp is still the same Garp.
As for Akainu...
Everything he has been doing seems extreme.
His goal seems to be to wipe out all pirates in the world.
The orders he gave to the World Government always exceeded the requirements.
