Chapter 19 Successfully Promoted to Major
But no matter what, this is a good thing!
This Black Forbidden Island is one of the few dark places in the East China Sea. Just like the evil dragon gang, they are all protected by inspectors with powerful backgrounds.
In other words, it's all the Celestial Dragons' hands that are making money.
Even he dared to make a move.
Now, Enni is also under the control of the Celestial Dragons.
Let him do it!
Moreover, he, as the commander, made the greatest contribution in the annihilation of Blackthorn Island. He should give this guy a push and put him in the position of Chief Inspector of the East China Sea.
It's better than those nine guys fighting their own battles and causing chaos and harm to civilians.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but laugh: "Then I congratulate you in advance. You should have no problem being promoted to major this time."
Once the rank of major is secured, he won't even need to lift a finger. Burns will handle everything, and the position of Inspector General of the East China Sea will naturally fall into Aini's lap.
Enni: "Colonel Smoker, thank you very much. I'll remember this favor!"
Although this is the East China Sea, a school-level rank is still a school-level rank, and promotion isn't so easy. Blackthorn Island, while barely enough for him to be promoted to major.
That's not enough to warrant another promotion soon. After all, he was just recently promoted to captain, a promotion that was exceptionally made.
But with the strong recommendation of Smoker, the highest-ranking officer in the East Blue, things are different.
Smoker took a deep drag on his cigar and then slowly exhaled a puff of smoke.
He then said, "I hope you won't disappoint me, and even more so, I won't regret it."
Aini understood what he was talking about and replied seriously, "I don't consider myself a bad person, but... I have my bottom line. Even if I make money like them, I won't harm ordinary people."
After saying that, he added in his mind, "How much money can they earn by working themselves to the bone? The nobles are the ones who control most of the world's wealth. If you swindle a little from them, you can live off them for years."
Upon hearing this, Smoker felt a toothache.
As expected, none of those who come from the Holy Land are good people. But when faced with two evils, choose the lesser...
He had a premonition that some people in the East China Sea were about to suffer a great deal. But so what?
As long as the civilians are safe, who cares about the others!
Both parties, each with their own ulterior motives, hung up the phone.
.......
Aini led everyone on another journey, but this time, he would go straight to their final destination, Xirob Village.
When Annie returned to her room that evening, she found Lina and Johnson already waiting for her.
He wasn't surprised to see Lina here.
But Johnson.
Aini was a little confused and asked directly, "What do you want with me?"
Lina: "It's like this, Johnson became the Quartermaster General, right? But his abilities are really not that impressive. So I was thinking..."
At this moment, Aini's face darkened.
Because he already knew Johnson's purpose in coming.
Do you think of him as a great traitor?
"Gurgle..."
Lina swallowed hard. It was the first time she'd ever seen Aini with such an expression, and she was genuinely taken aback. She swallowed back the words she was about to say!
When Aini's gaze fell on Johnson, a cold glint flashed in her eyes: "If you have anything to say in the future, you can come directly to me... This is the first and the last time."
Johnson straightened his face and said, "Yes!"
At this moment, however, his heart was trembling.
My legs felt a little weak.
Enni then looked at Lina again: "You want? What do you want? You want me to get him a Devil Fruit too? You probably don't know how precious Devil Fruits are!"
“In the Sabaody Archipelago of the Grand Line, Devil Fruits are auctioned off from time to time. Each one is worth no less than 1 million Berries.”
"This is still an unknown Devil Fruit. A Devil Fruit like the one you ate, which is clearly a Zoan-type—the White Tiger Fruit—would normally fetch five or six hundred million at auction. Moreover, whether it's the former or the latter, it's priceless... because in the auction house, you'd be competing with nobles or the Celestial Dragons, the world's most powerful nobles. Even if you had Beli, would you dare compete with them?"
"Besides, the Zoan-type White Tiger Fruit you ate is considered top-tier among Zoan-type fruits. My father originally spent a fortune and used all his connections to obtain it from the Celestial Dragons."
It was originally prepared for me.
Do you think this is some ordinary fruit? You think you can just open your mouth and get one?
What are you thinking about?
"what?"
Lina and Johnson both widened their eyes in surprise. They knew that Devil Fruits existed, but they had no idea just how precious they were.
Lina, in particular, only now realized just how precious the Devil Fruit she had eaten truly was.
At the same time, I understood.
This is because Enni gave her his Devil Fruit... which moved her deeply.
"I...I'm sorry!"
While moved, she also felt incredibly guilty and ashamed. How could she... how could she... dare to ask for something so precious again?
Johnson was completely stunned.
Really!
At this moment, Aini's gaze fell on him: "Remember this, you are now the Quartermaster General. Manage your affairs well, and I will certainly not treat you unfairly. Don't think about anything else... otherwise, I can help you rise to the top, or I can trample you down with one foot."
"Yes, yes... Captain Aini, I understand."
Aini waved his hand, signaling him to leave.
Lina immediately pulled Aini into the room.
And then he closed the door behind him.
“Master… let Lina repay you properly!” With that, Lina pulled down her collar a little, and finally pulled out a chain, handing it to Aini.
Then she took off her outer clothes, revealing a tight-fitting top and a tight-fitting short skirt with black stockings.
"Holy crap..."
Aini had to admit, this little girl was becoming more and more understanding of his feelings. And she was getting more and more playful... (omitting a lot of details here).
.....
Time flies, and another half month has passed.
During their time on the ship, Enni, Zoro, Rena, and Arkin spent their days either training their strength or sparring with each other...
So, for the past two weeks...
This allowed the four to fully understand each other's strengths, and at the same time, their relationship became much closer.
A small group of cones slowly took shape.
Of course, the most exhausted one was Aini. After all, he had to have a big battle every night.
“Brubru….”
Just as they were about to reach Syrob Village, Smoker finally dialed Ani's Den Den Mushi.
"The appointment order from above has been issued."
"Captain Aini is promoted to Major Inspector General. He will oversee all inspectors in the East China Sea and will seek a location to establish the East China Sea Inspector General Headquarters."
"Lina, promoted to lieutenant staff officer at the East China Sea Inspectorate Headquarters."
