Chapter 563： The new G-9 branch base chief

Chapter 563 The new G-9 branch base chief

As the admirals of Wano Country expressed their approval for Ion's appointment as the base commander of the "G-9 Branch", the matter was almost settled.

After all, even the Warring States Marshal had to carefully consider the opinion that most of the Navy's powerful lieutenant generals agreed.

What's more, in terms of strength, qualifications, and status, Ian is actually the best candidate for the G-9 branch base leader.

The only thing to worry about is Ion's injury.

…

A few days later, a humble port in the Jiuli area.

"I said, Ion boy, really don't have to stay here to help you watch for a while?" Lieutenant General Garp said casually.

"No, Lieutenant General Garp, my injury has almost recovered." Ion, who was a little pale, declined.

"Tsk, that's fine, you boy refused, Xiaohe can't blame me for not staying." Lieutenant General Garp said, and then turned around and boarded the naval battleship.

Now, with Lieutenant General Garp arriving in the Kuri area, and leading a considerable number of naval warships that stayed outside the waters of Wano Country into Wano Country.

Numerous admirals will also leave this newly established branch of G-9 and begin their return towards Marin Vando.

After all, most of the naval generals who participated in this war still have heavy military affairs, and many of them are the base chiefs who guard the branches of the great route. They must return as soon as possible to avoid the emptiness of the naval headquarters and other naval branches. Under attack.

As the order for the warships to set sail was issued, except for the five naval warships reserved for temporary use by the G-9 branch, the rest of the naval warships began to sail away from Wano Country.

For the navy, after nearly half a month, they have roughly figured out the harsh weather conditions in the outer waters of Wano Kingdom.

Even though the level of danger is still high, the time node and currents for successfully leaving the Wano Country waters have been roughly figured out, which is enough to ensure the success rate of the fleet passing through.

On the main ship of the naval fleet leaving Wano Country, Lieutenant General Garp found that Lieutenant General Crane was still looking in the direction of Wano Country with a solemn expression, and he could not help comforting Lieutenant General Crane.

"Xiaohe, don't worry, if even Ion can't keep the G-9 branch, even if I were to be the base commander, the difference would not be much."

"No, I'm not worried about Lieutenant General Ion's combat power, but other things." Lieutenant General Crane replied.

"What's the matter?" Lieutenant General Karp asked.

Lieutenant General Crane sighed helplessly and said.

"I'm afraid that the disappearance of Sora and Ying will cause extremely serious irritation to Lieutenant General Ion, and even Lieutenant General Ion decides to stay in the G-9 branch, maybe it is because he is unwilling to return to Marin Vando and face the Warring States. "

"Should... not? Ion kid is not a man who is easily defeated by emotions." Lieutenant General Garp said disapprovingly.

"Ugh…"

Lieutenant General   Crane sighed deeply again, and did not speak again.

Standing beside Tsuru Naka Admiral, he stared deeply at Gion of Wano Country, which kept getting smaller and smaller in his line of sight, but suddenly said.

"Sister Crane, I plan to try to be the base commander of the G-5 branch."

"Um?"

Lieutenant General    Tsuru looked at Gion with a little surprise.

Lieutenant General Garp guessed even more out of his mouth. "Gion, you don't simply want to be closer to Ion-kid?"

Gion did not refute Lieutenant General Garp, but the five fingers holding the "Famous Sword, Kinpira" couldn't help tightening, and then said.

"My strength is too weak. If I want to make my knife sharper, it is one of the best ways to continue to hone myself as a base commander in the New World Sea area."

At the end, Gion's eyes looked extremely firm.

too weak!

In front of Drago, Gion can deeply understand that he is far from the real top figure in the sea, and there is still a clear gap.

Myself... It seems that I am even further away from Lieutenant General Ion!

Gion has not forgotten the battle he once promised with Ion under the moon, but even though that battle has not yet started, Gion already knows that he is going to lose!

He has never slackened his kendo practice in the past ten years, but the gap between the two sides has become more and more obvious.

Feeling of powerlessness…

The feeling of powerlessness that can't help Lieutenant General Ion, the feeling of powerlessness that can only stare at Lieutenant General Ion's back, the feeling of powerlessness that is as deeply felt as Lieutenant General Ion is leaving him. .

must...be stronger!

What I want to say to Lieutenant General Ion, but I haven't finished it yet! !

Lieutenant General    Tsuru stared deeply into Gion's eyes, as if feeling Gion's determination, nodded and said.

"That being the case, Vice Admiral Gion, please be prepared to be hard-working. Even compared to the G-9 branch, the risk of the G-5 branch is much lower, and it is closer to the G-1 branch and the navy headquarters. Get reinforcements faster, but the pirates in the New World waters are crazy!"

Gion clenched the "Famous Sword, Kinpira" in his hand and replied word by word. "That...exactly what I hoped for!"

…

Different from the emotion and melancholy of most navies in the naval fleet that left, Ion, who had bid farewell to his colleagues and left, briefly dealt with the military affairs of the G-9 branch, and then returned to the G-9 branch navy that is still under construction today. in the base office.

As Yon opened the office door, there was a figure in a gray cloak inside the office.

Ion walked into the office without any change in his movements and closed the door, and after locking it, he couldn't help but scolded with laughter.

"Dorag, what are you doing? It's still broad daylight."

In front of Ion, a close friend and comrade, Drago's fierce, tattooed facial features grinned almost exactly like Lieutenant General Garp's, and he weighed the lunch box in his hand and said.

"Congratulations on your promotion to the G-9 branch base commander, so I brought you a snack from Wano Country to congratulate you by the way, it tastes pretty good."

"Who is in the mood to eat snacks, Sora and Ying haven't yet..."

As Drago opened the lunch box and saw the nodding that was full of color and fragrance, Ian couldn't help but pause when he spoke, and then pointed his finger at the desk and said.

"let it go."

Dorag shrugged, then took out the snacks in the lunch box and placed them neatly on the desk before speaking.

"Don't worry too much about Sora and Ying, doesn't the life card show that they are in good condition? With our control over Wano, as long as Sora and Ying arrive in Wano, we will know the news soon."

paused, Drago patted Ion's shoulder and comforted.

"Besides, things like sons and daughters naturally have their own path. It's useless to worry too much. Instead of wasting energy on them, it's better to think more about our future."
