Self-Discipline! Have You Seen Marineford at Four o’clock in the Morning?

"Well, just come."

One of the Five Elders nodded towards Kong, making a hoarse voice.

All five of them looked very old and had different images.

The person who responded to Kong had a golden formal hairstyle, a dark red suit, a golden beard, and a serious look.

"We owe you an explanation."

At this time, the other Five Elders gently took a sip of the fine black tea in his hand, and whispered softly.

This man was wearing a dark blue suit with long narrow eyes, long straight white hair and a long beard.

"Sakazuki contacted us privately after the battle on the Red Line, and frankly expressed his desire for the position of Marshal Marine."

A balding Five Elders with a mustache on the left took the words:

"Sora, you should know very well that we, as high-level government officials, have always admired Sakazuki's style of work."

"His loyalty to the government and obedience to orders that he showed in the West Blue Ohara incident, we all see in our hearts."

"So when Sakazuki and Kuzan were fighting for the position of Marine Marshal, we actually had a clear intention for him."

The voice fell, and the far away Five Elders, wearing a white robe, bald head and glasses, nodded with a sly expression, and said in a deep voice:

"──And he successfully awakened Conqueror's Haki in the Red Line battle."

He is the only person in Five Elders who is not wearing a suit, and he is meticulously wiping a knife in his hand on his knees with a piece of high-grade silk while talking.

The blade is pitch black, branded with black flame-like lines, and it looks as if it is so deep that all the surrounding light can be absorbed.

This is a murderous demon knife.

"Conqueror's Haki, although it does not prove anything, but at least in our opinion, Sakazuki has a stronger determination and courage than Kuzan to deal with Roy and his NEO new Marine."

The last Five Elders, wearing a black flat hat, said slowly.

"So we agreed to his request."

Listening to the five Elders in front of you, what you said and said to yourself, Kong couldn't help feeling a little angry.

These domineering old immortals!

He resisted the anger in his heart and said with a blank expression:

"Since this is the decision of the adults, I have no opinion."

What a character Five Elders is, naturally and keenly aware of Kong's inner dissatisfaction.

They looked at each other and said slowly:

"Sora, we didn't discuss this matter with you in advance, and indeed owe you an explanation."

"Yes, but we now need a strong Marshal Marine to regain our strength."

"Moreover, after experiencing the Holy Land Mariejois and the invasion of NEO's new Marine, we really need you to come back and sit down."

"Other people, we are not at ease."

Kong finally couldn't restrain his anger, waved his hand and said coldly:

"But you did this, but in the end you forced Kuzan away!"

The Five Elders all stunned.

They didn't expect that the guy Kong would use such a tone to contradict them.

"Sora, pay attention to your tone."

"This is World government, not Naval Headquarters!"

"Since the Ohara incident, Kuzan has been in a constant wavering state both in terms of military affairs and orders from our government..."

"Such an unstable factor can't take on the responsibility of Marshal Marine!"

"The government does not need people who disobey orders."

"As a soldier, you should know this very well..."

Kong was silent.

His eyes became calm again, and he looked at the Five Elders in front of him and took a deep breath.

"I see."

"So, this time you asked me to come here because of..."

"The pension and reorganization work of the government army is still quite heavy. I don't have much time to stay here for a long time."

Five Elders was silent, and said at the same time:

"I believe you guessed the situation on the government side?"

Kong nodded and said without concealment:

"Lack of money."

There was another dead silence.

"Yes."

"Since the Naval Headquarters withdrew from New World, our government's control over the sea in New World has gradually declined."

"Many trade routes have been directly cut off, and many members of New World's member countries have also used various opportunities to delay and refuse to hand in the heavenly gold..."

"Plus the ever-increasing military expenditures at the Naval Headquarters and the reconstruction work at the Holy Land..."

Listening to Five Elders' words, Kong suddenly laughed.

"So, I don't know how this old bone of mine can help you solve your troubles, Lord Five Elders?"

Five Elders paused and said one after another;

"Go to New World."

"Go find that guy and give him a condition that he can't refuse."

"Now only you can step into the New World."

"After solving this trouble, we don't care what you want to do."
