"Set sail!"
"Faster!"
"If you can't reach the Governor's Mansion within a day, I'll skin all of you alive!”
Following Brian's order, the officers and soldiers of Branch 243 boarded the warship at the fastest speed. Then, they carried out their duties and sailed at full speed.
Branch 243 was not too far away from the West Ocean Governor's Mansion. It was about 300 nautical miles away, and the maximum speed of the warship was 14 knots. Therefore, in theory, they only needed to sail at full speed for 22 hours to reach the Governor's Mansion in the stipulated time.
Of course, theory was just theory. No one could guarantee what would happen midway.
However, Brian had absolute authority in Branch 243, and the officers and soldiers in the branch did not dare to question him. Therefore, when Brian said that they had to reach the Governor's Mansion within a day, all the soldiers would definitely do their best to ensure that they would arrive within a day!
The Seventh Branch of West Ocean was also the most elite force of the West Ocean Navy.
This time, the Seventh Branch would naturally be mobilized to encircle and suppress the pirate Astona.
However, the Seventh Branch was not optimistic.
This was because the pirate Astona was no ordinary pirate.
First of all, Astona was sinister and cunning. Not only did he manage to successfully escape from the capture every time, but he also made the navy involved in the capture suffer.
Secondly, there were 12 crew members under Astona. These crew members were all very strong and vicious. Each of them had a bounty of more than 20 million Bailey.
The last thing that worried the 7th Branch the most was Astona's personal strength.
Although Astona had yet to enter the great sea route, his bounty had already reached an astonishing 120 million Bailey.
It was said that even the Golden Lion had invited Astona to join the Flying Pirates. Although this matter was not confirmed, the navy of West Ocean believed it to be true.
It was also because of these reasons that the soldiers of the 7th branch had no confidence in the operation to surround Astona.
Even the most elite Seventh Branch of West Ocean was not confident, let alone the " trash " from the other branches.
"Sigh, I don't know how many people will die this time. Our branch's pension for last year hasn't been paid yet.”
"Me too. The headquarters has always used the excuse of insufficient military funds as an excuse. Hmph, they look down on our West Ocean Navy.”
"Don't be angry. What's the use of being angry? The dead can't come back to life, and their compensation can't be paid.”
"I'm not angry, I'm just unwilling. Aren't we desperately trying to catch pirates? However, the bureaucrats in the headquarters not only deducted our compensation, but they also wanted to hold us accountable!”
"Those useless bureaucrats only care about their achievements. They don't see our contributions at all. Besides…Sigh, it's our fault for not being able to catch Astona.”
Just as these branch officers were chatting in the Governor's Mansion, a tall figure passed by them.
"Eh…isn't that Colonel Brian from Branch 243?”
"Don't tell me that guy is also here to participate in the encirclement mission.”
"A scum who drinks, drinks, gambles, extorts, and extorts all day long.”
" Shh, lower your voice. Don't let him hear you. He's Governor Karl's junior, General Zefa's disciple…"
"What's there to be afraid of? If he really had the ability, he would definitely stay in the headquarters. Why would he be transferred here?”
"That's true. Those who are transferred to the branch basically have no hope of being promoted.”
Brian was not deaf, and he was good at hearing, looking, and being domineering. Therefore, he could hear the group of officials talking about him behind his back clearly. He could even see their faces clearly.
At this moment, Brian stopped and turned to the group of officers.
The group of officials also felt a little guilty, so they immediately shut their mouths.
Brian glanced at the faces of the officers and sneered,""I want Astona's head for sure. You bunch of trash can only wait for my performance in fear.”
Brian turned around and walked toward the inner courtyard of the Governor's Mansion.
The officers looked at each other and then burst out laughing.
"Did he just say he wanted Astona's head?”
"He really doesn't know the immensity of heaven and earth.”
"Hehe, Astona is an expert who once defeated Governor Karl!”
"Even Governor Karl couldn't defeat Astona, let alone a hothead like him.”
In the eyes of these officers, not only was Governor Karl the disciple of General Zefa, but he was also the most powerful navy in the West Ocean. If even Governor Karl couldn't defeat Astona, then no one in the West Ocean could.
"These bastards, I really want to kill them all. Forget it, I'll find an opportunity to kill them on the battlefield.”
Brian muttered in his heart and then walked to the governor's office. At this time, Anna happened to come out of the office and bumped into Brian.
"Hey, Little Chili, are you free tonight?”
Brian greeted Anna.
Anna suppressed her anger and said with a straight face,"Colonel Brian, please mind your words and actions. Also, let me remind you that you are a soldier!”
At the same time, Anna thought to herself,'Can such a scoundrel, a scum in the navy, really count on him to deal with Astona?'
" Hey, don't be so cold. I have the best wine and foie gras on my boat. We should have a drink to improve our relationship..."
Brian said as he walked towards Anna and forced her into a corner. At the same time, he raised his hand.
Kabedon!
"You hooligan, I want…"
Before Anna could finish, Brian kissed her.
"Woo…"
The branch officers who came from the inner court were also dumbfounded.
"Surprised?"
Brian raised his hand and easily caught Anna's hand that was about to hit his cheek.
"Bastard! Let go of Anna!" At this moment, Colonel Robson of the 185th branch rushed over.
Robin was Anna's classmate and had always had a crush on her.
Therefore, when he saw Anna being humiliated by Brian, he was naturally furious.
However, there was a whoosh, and then, with a thud, Morrison knelt in front of Brian.
Finger Spear!
