Chapter 498 There is an ominous premonition
"Didn't the Navy give you any trouble?"
Xie Wen, who got the good news, was happy for a while and then asked curiously.
Because Windless Belt couldn't receive newspapers, he didn't know how far Morgans' reports went, but Akainu lost his position as marshal because of this. It seems that Morgans didn't just "reveal the news."
In fact, this is the case. When Morgans reported this news, he adhered to his usual "fairness and objectivity" and gave full play to the characteristics of journalism, which elevated the importance of this matter by several levels.
Morgans even received support from several other Shichibukai, and the report also included the attitudes of Doflamingo, Moria and Cavendish on the matter.
This led to the fact that Akainu, who was originally favored by the World Government, did not receive any support from the top in this incident, and the entire process of marshal replacement was very smooth.
It was precisely because there were no twists and turns in Aokiji's rise to power this time that Sakaski did not turn back from the navy and remained as his admiral.
However, considering Sakaski's character, Xie Wen felt that even if he lost to Aoki in the competition, he would not leave the navy.
Moreover, Kuzan in the manga would probably not have quit the navy if he hadn't been recommended by the Warring States Period and then forcibly rejected by the World Government.
Therefore, even an admiral is no different from a dog in the eyes of the World Government.
"Hahahaha! The Navy doesn't have the spare time to trouble me now. Moreover, the Navy's failure this time requires an excuse and a responsible person. I can only blame Sakaski. He was unlucky and happened to hit it."
Morgans' words were full of pride.
At first Xie Wen couldn't figure out what he was so proud of, but he soon came back to his senses...
Based on this birdman's cunningness, he must have already gotten angry with the World Government before doing him a little favor, and the World Government, apart from anything else, is still very good at deflecting blame, and as mentioned before, Basically, they don't consider the mood of the Navy. They can do such a thing as pulling Akainu out to top the tank.
Sure enough, Morgans said immediately afterwards: "Actually, the person who wanted to 'resign' was Sakaski in the beginning, but Sengoku took the initiative to take responsibility for him. The World Government considered that Akainu was younger, It is still necessary to retain the navy's combat power, so I agreed naturally, so even if it is for Sengoku's sake, he will not come to trouble me. "
At this time, Xie Wen finally felt at ease.
It doesn't actually matter whether the World Government and the Navy will come to cause trouble, and Xie Wen is not afraid of them coming to cause trouble, but the key is that their attitude determines whether he can get the power rock he had negotiated with Cody before.
After chatting with Morgans for a while and getting some other information, Xie Wen ended the call with him.
However, he did not leave in a hurry, but rubbed his chin thoughtfully...
Should I call Uncle Cody to discuss the power rock?
He had never urged this matter before. Firstly, they were in the windless zone and had no time to hand over the handover for a while. Secondly, he didn't do much when dealing with Big Mom, so he still felt a little guilty. of…
Well, I'm still not thick-skinned enough.
But the situation is different now. The unlucky guy Sakaski has already taken the blame. Even though both parties know that this is just an excuse, the matter has been determined, and Xie Wen naturally has no need to feel guilty.
However, after hesitating for a while, he still did not call Cody.
Morgans' report on the marshal's appointment has not been sent out yet. If he calls to urge them now, wouldn't it appear that he is too eager?
And Xie Wen also gradually came back to his senses at this time...
After the power rock falls into the hands of the two explosive cats, Kelly Meowth and Meowx, God knows what these two little guys can do. Naturally, they can delay it for a while longer. Why should I go there? Rush to rush?
After understanding this, Xie Wen decisively put the power rock incident behind him, then trotted back to the deck to start a new round of cat petting activities.
"Meow?"
Kelimiao, who followed the collection team into the forest, was walking when she suddenly got excited and looked around.
"What's wrong? Keli?" Haiyuan Meow, who was digging for herbs with a bang at the side, looked over and asked curiously: "Did you find anything?"
"Hmm... Keli just suddenly had a bad premonition... It's a bit like the feeling when someone wants to trick Keli."
The little puppet pursed its lips and looked at Haibara Miao warily.
"Sister Xiao Ai, are you having some bad idea again?!"
"I'm busy collecting herbs right now! I don't have time to trick you, meow!"
The little cat who had been wronged argued angrily. "But, except for you, Sister Xiao Ai, no one else here would be so evil-minded, meow."
Kelimiao, who had been tricked many times, did not easily believe Haibaran Miao's explanation and remained cautious and alert.
Regarding the accusation made by the little puppet, Haiyuan Miao really didn't have the confidence to refute, after all, she usually cheated on Keli Miao.
but…
The little cat looked around.
Nine Snake's collection team, Hua Mei Meow, Link Meow, and...
"Isn't there Sanji too?! He often teases you too!"
Haibara Meow quickly locked onto a "scapegoat".
"Meow?"
The little yellow cat who was collecting unfamiliar ingredients when he was suddenly cued looked confused.
"But Brother Sanji didn't have any bad intentions just now. On the contrary, Sister Ai, you seem to have had bad ideas."
Keli Meow was unmoved.
The little stuffed doll that can sense other people's emotions didn't just wrongfully accuse Haibara, she actually sensed that Haibara was planning to do something bad just now.
Of course the little puppet's senses are not wrong, but...
"I'm not targeting you!"
Haiyuan Meow took out a strange-looking mushroom and explained: "I was just thinking about how to feed this thing to that idiot Meow Xie Wen."
Hearing that Haiyuan Miao was planning to trick Xie Wen, Keli Miao also immediately became interested. She leaned forward and carefully looked at the mushroom in Haiyuan Miao's hand.
"If Keli remembers correctly, that big sister just said this was a 'Crying Mushroom'?"
"That's right, it's the 'Crying Mushroom'. It's a mushroom that makes you cry after eating it. The effect is exactly the opposite of the 'Laughing Mushroom'..." Haibara shook the mushroom in his hand, and then whispered like a demon. The tone was seductive: "Don't you want to see that idiot Xie Wen crying?"
The little puppet, who was already very interested in tricking Xie Wen, was nodding his head at this time.
"Think and think! Keli wants to see Meow! Brother Xie Wen is crying. It's very interesting to think about Meow!"
Then the little puppet put aside the weird premonition just now, and got together with Haibara Miao, muttering about how to trick Xie Wen.
Sanji Miao on the side looked confused.
Of course he liked to see things like cheating on Xie Wen, but cheating people with food was a bit unacceptable to the chef cat.
It's just that the investigation team's ecology has always been that Mr. Xiang Feihu is first, and the cats in the kindergarten group are second. Sanji Miao also understands that he can't stop them, so after a brief struggle, the little yellow cat Wisely chose to pretend not to hear...
Anyway, if Sister Xiao Ai had done it, she would have made the Crying Mushroom into a potion, so it wouldn't be a waste of food, meow!
Sanji Miao silently made an excuse for Haibara Miao.
"Um?!"
Xie Wen, who was petting the cat on the boat, suddenly felt a chill on his back...
【What's wrong, meow? Brother Xie Wen? 】
Duduhao tugged at him curiously, and Charmi next to him also looked up.
"I don't know why, but I suddenly had an ominous premonition."
Xie Wen touched the back of his neck, which felt inexplicably cold, and replied solemnly.
