Time was like an hourglass, always passing unknowingly.
It had been two years since Zhan Guo and the others left the headquarters.
In the general's office, Steel Skeleton stood by the window and looked at the blue sky.
Coincidentally, the seagulls that symbolized peace flew across the sky, and wherever they passed, they could hear their melodious cries.
The voice was loud and clear, and the smile on Steel Skeleton's face gradually rose.
His gaze seemed to penetrate the sea, the white clouds, and the layers of space. He saw Zhan Guo and the others who were sailing on the distant sea. He sighed and said,
"The four little fellows are really good.”
The sea breeze blew over, blowing the stack of newspapers on the desk into the air and slowly falling down.
On the front page of every newspaper was a photo of Sengoku, Karp, Zefa, and Crane.
The big eye-catching title came into view.
New Hope for the Navy, Four New Soldiers Famous on the Sea
One warship, four soldiers, exterminating ten thousand bandits, saving a country!
The Iron Four Corners of the Navy, an existence that rose up by stepping on the corpses of many pirates.
With the birth of Tie Sijiao, what other trump cards does the navy that has lost its combat strength have that we don't know about?
The latest poll! Four Seas 'trust in the navy had increased greatly because of them!
In the Buddha's War Country, he was known as the soldier most likely to become a general!
Tie Sijiao of the navy was actually not at a disadvantage when facing 800 million pirates!
【……】
The headlines were eye-catching, and the exaggerated content attracted many eyeballs.
Every report was written in thick ink and color, and everything they had done in the past two years was written in detail.
The skeleton watched the seagull gradually disappear from sight before turning around.
When he saw that the newspaper had been blown all over the ground, he silently bent down to pick it up, wiped it again, and placed it in a conspicuous place on the table.
In the past two years, he had read every newspaper article more than a hundred times.
Only by seeing their deeds would the Steel Skeleton Kong relax for a moment, and he would not feel helpless about the predicament the navy was facing.
At present, they were the only ones in the entire navy who dared to be so arrogant at sea.
As long as they didn't enter the new world recklessly, it was unlikely that an accident would happen on the great sea route.
Even if they couldn't defeat him, they could still retreat with their combined strength. For example, they suddenly encountered a pirate who came out of the new world last year.
When Gu Gukong received the news, he was so scared that he immediately went to save them.
However, the result was already out when the fleet he had gathered was halfway there. The four little fellows who had fully grown up did not gain much from the other party's joint efforts and could only leave peacefully.
This battle shook the world and made everyone recognize them.
The names of the Navy's Iron Four Corners and Buddha's War State were remembered by many monsters in the New World.
Gu Gukong lit a cigarette and looked at the photos of Zhan Guo and the others in the newspaper."You don't know how to take the initiative to call me, your superior. You're still lacking in the ways of the world, kids.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he took out his phone bug and took the initiative to call.
Blu, Blu, Blu…
Blu Blu…
"Who is it?"
The phone rang for a long time before it was finally picked up.
"Zhan Guo, I am…"
Gu Gukong tried his best to make his smile as gentle as possible. He cleared his throat a few times before speaking.
However, before he could finish speaking, he was hung up.
Looking at the phone bug that had already closed its eyes, the expression on the skeleton's face froze.
"What happened? Is the signal bad?"
Gu Gukong muttered and continued to call.
A few minutes passed, but there was still no answer.
"Let Karp try."
Gu Gukong entered a string of numbers again and dialed it.
This time, the call was picked up very quickly, but the tone and attitude were not good.
Karp: " Who is it? I'm busy right now. Call me back in twenty minutes."”
Pa.
The call was hung up again.
Gu Gukong looked at the phone bug in a daze and then looked at the title of the general on the desk. For a moment, he had mixed feelings.
As a general, I'm getting worse and worse.
This was the first time in more than forty years that two people had hung up on him consecutively.
"Kelly, my adjutant won't hang up on me, right?”
Steel Skeleton sat in his seat and thought for a while. He also felt that they should have something to do, and it was very important. Otherwise, the two of them would not even give him a chance to speak.
Since that was the case, there was no need to beat up Zefa and Crane.
The only person who could confirm that he could hear his voice as soon as possible and not hang up was his adjutant Kelly, who he had arranged to protect Sengoku.
The phone bug typed again.
Blu Blu…
"Hello, who is this?"
Kelly picked up the phone and spoke politely.
"It's me, Kong." Steel Skeleton heaved a sigh of relief. Finally, someone picked up.
"General, Deputy Kelly sends his regards. What can I do for you?”
"It's nothing too urgent. What are the Zhan Guo and the others doing? Why didn't you pick up the phone?"
"Oh, the natural-type Burning Ability User, Cremator Walker, who has been hiding all this time, has been found. They are currently pursuing him on the island.”
"I see."
Gu Gukong finally understood. No wonder Zhan Guo and the others looked so anxious. They didn't even have time to answer the phone.
He also knew about this matter. Last year, as the reputation of the Navy's Iron Four Corners gradually rose, Walker heard from somewhere that Sengoku and the others had been looking for him.
At that time, he was not confident that he could fight against the Sengoku Empire, so he led the entire pirate ship and disappeared into the sea. No one knew where he was, and no news had ever spread.
After a year, they had finally found it. It was understandable that Zhan Guo and the others were anxious.
"Hmm, are you confident?" Gu Gukong asked.
" Yes, after Bloody Hand Monard, Evil Skull Crusher Felix, Explosive Man Shell, and Traitor Nelson were taken care of by them, Sengoku and the others learned that the last one was a Natural Ability User from their subordinates and learned how to equip themselves.”
The Armored Haki was the nemesis of the Nature Fruit. It could capture the physical body of an aptitude user. After learning this move, it could be considered a real threat to the Nature Fruit.
Gu Gukong nodded. Since they were doing business, there was no need to disturb them.
"After this matter is over, ask them to call me. I have something to tell them.”
"Alright, I'll hang up first. I have to lead the soldiers to close the encirclement.”
"Go ahead."
Beep beep beep…
The phone bug hung up, and Gu Gukong leaned back in his chair and let out a long breath.
