soon.

While talking and laughing, the two of them arrived at the pier unknowingly.

Two large warships have been waiting there for a long time, ready to go to the new world at any time.

One of them was unremarkable. It was a temporary ship randomly selected by Aokiji. It was no different from the other standard warships in the headquarters.

The other one is quite conspicuous and special.

The hull is brand new, and the white paint is bright and shiny. Although it is only slightly larger than a standard warship, the gun muzzles on both sides have doubled.

What is even more eye-catching is the collision head of the ship, which is a huge blue eagle with wild eyes and soaring wings.

"Thunder Eagle".

This is the name of this warship. It just left the factory a month ago and was only delivered to the headquarters last week. It has never even participated in a battle.

That's right.

The Thunder Eagle is a warship designed and built by Tom, the fishman of the Seven Waters Capital, for Noxia himself.

half a year ago.

Tom once solemnly promised to Nuo Xia to build him the most powerful warship in the world.

But now, the old man is worthy of his reputation as the world's number one shipbuilder and has fulfilled his promise perfectly.

The final performance test results of this "Thunder Eagle" based on the department's professional testing are simply amazing.

In addition to the double firepower, the Thunder Eagle is far ahead of warships of the same class in terms of the sturdiness of the hull structure and the theoretical maximum speed. It is the undisputed strongest warship in the entire navy.

At that time, all the lieutenant generals were envious of this warship. Qingzhi even touched it and looked at it greedily, and his mouth was almost watering.

The ability to do this is not only due to Tom's excellent shipbuilding skills, but also because the main part of the entire ship is made of "Treasure Tree Adam" as raw materials.

Because the Adam tree is one of the strongest trees in the world, it is said that it can remain standing no matter how brutal the war is.

Therefore, even if it is just a piece of wood, it can often be sold for a sky-high price of 200 million beli on the black market, and there is often no market for it.

Nosha is no stranger to it.

Pirate King Gol D. Roger's ship "Orson Jackson" and Future Luffy's new ship "Wanli Sunshine" were both made from this tree.

Of course, Tom couldn't afford Adam wood. He told Norcia in his letter that the wood used to build the warship was the remaining wood from the entire Adam tree that Roger had given him.

The same "Treasure Tree Adam" was used to build the strongest pirate ship and the strongest warship respectively...

Nuo Xia found it quite interesting. The former helped Roger start the era of pirates, but what if the latter ended the era of pirates in his own hands?

Nuo Xia and Qing Zhi each set foot on their own ships.

"Lieutenant General Noxia!"

As soon as they boarded the deck, countless sailors stood at attention and saluted, looking at Nuo Xia with eager reverence.

A total of 1,200 naval personnel.

These are all Nuo Xia's direct subordinates, and they are also the absolute elites he selected from his headquarters.

It's funny to say.

Before the delivery of the "Thunder Eagle", Cyborg Kong instructed Nosha to start forming his own direct troops. As soon as the news came out, it triggered an unprecedented wave of registrations throughout Marineland.

As his military exploits have become more and more outstanding in the past two years, Nuo Xia's prestige in the navy has also become higher and higher, and he can be said to have countless fans.

As a result, there were only about a thousand people available, but more than ten times the number of navy soldiers rushed to sign up. In those days, the threshold of the relevant departments was completely crushed...

If it's just at the grassroots level, that's it. According to the regulations of the headquarters, every large warship commanded by a lieutenant general of the headquarters will be equipped with a major general and a commodore as adjutants.

These two positions were also taken over.

In just one day, more than thirty applications were submitted to Gang Gukong's desk, allowing this old marshal, who had lived for almost a hundred years and had seen all kinds of storms, to send them all for a long time.

It took me a while to come back to my senses.

Then he simply left the final decision in Nuo Xia's hands.

Nuo Xia flipped through the thick stack of files sent to him, and the decision was made very quickly. Two candidates were decided on the same day.

And these two adjutants are exactly——

"Lieutenant General."

Two tall figures wearing white cloaks of justice came around, one on the left and the other on the right, and saluted solemnly, while Nuo Xia also nodded at them and chuckled:

"Long time no see, Flying Squirrel, Ghost Spider."

"yes."

The flying squirrel opposite smiled and nodded, "It's been almost two years."

Ghost Spider grinned. He hadn't been here for a long time. He had just fought side by side with Noxia in the Chambord Islands more than half a year ago.

That's right.

The two adjutants selected by Nuo Xia were exactly the same two of them. One is currently a major general and the other is a brigadier general. They were both transferred back to the headquarters from other places at the beginning of this year.

The reason why Nuo Xia chose them is also very simple.

First of all, they are from the same school. Not only do they have a natural close relationship with each other as disciples of Zefa, but they have also dealt with each other for a long time and know each other well.

Secondly...

Of course, considering the potential of the two of them.

In the comics timeline, the future flying squirrels and ghost spiders are both famous veteran elite lieutenant generals. In terms of strength and status, they are second only to the three generals of the chicken, dog, and monkey.

Taking these two people under his command at the same time will not only make them the most capable assistants in the future, but also give them a sense of accomplishment.

The flying squirrel and the ghost spider also looked at Nuo Xia with some emotion.

Their first acquaintance with Nuo Xia can be traced back to three years ago. At that time, they were already the best among the young generals. Nuo Xia was just an unknown recruit they met when visiting Zefa.

But now, three years later, the other party has become the most dazzling lieutenant general in the headquarters, a being they can only stand on tiptoe to look up to.

They also became each other's direct subordinates, but they took the initiative to apply. There was no jealousy or dissatisfaction towards this young junior brother, only full respect and admiration...

The two of them watched Nuo Xia walking towards the bow of the ship, looking at the sea in the distance, waving her hands slightly, and giving the order in a cold voice:

"Now that everyone is here, let's go!"

"Target, new world, Kingdom of Dressrosa!"

The words just fell.

A thunderous response suddenly sounded across the entire deck:

"Yes, Lieutenant General!"

————————

Far away, the Kingdom of Dressrosa.

A prosperous city along the coast was filled with gunpowder smoke and the outer streets were dilapidated. It was obvious that it had just experienced a dismal war.

"I can finally rest for a while..."

In the temporary palace, King Liku sat down, panted violently, and gritted his teeth and said:

"These bastard pirates are really endless. They chase away one wave after another. Do you really think that we, Dressrosa, are easy to mess with?"

Ever since the violent turmoil caused by the historical road sign text began, there have been many pirate groups in the New World, screaming and heading towards Tokushima.

The critical situation along the coast forced him to go on a personal expedition, taking all the royal palaces with him to the edge towns for defense.

Up to now, it has been three days and three nights of bloody fighting, and I don’t know how many battles it has gone through.

"His Majesty……"

Army Commander Cyrus knelt on one knee with a guilty look on his face, "All this happened because of me. Now the country is in crisis, and all they want is my head. If you really can't resist it, why not..."

"What are you talking about, Cyrus!"

Before Cyrus could finish speaking, King Liku waved his hand and interrupted, saying displeasedly:

"You did nothing wrong from the beginning to the end! Could it be that you were watching the female pirate named Karina burning, killing and looting in the town?"

"Using your head in exchange for the peace of the country? Humph, how do you want the people to see me, and how do you want that girl Scarlet to see her father?"

Mentioning the wife who was willing to give up her status as a princess to be with him, Cyrus's body trembled slightly as he lay down, and he raised his head with pursed lips and no words.

"So...don't mention such silly things again!"

King Riku laughed loudly, "Understand, fight well and live well! Don't forget, you are a man who has won 4,000 games in a row in the arena!"

When Cyrus nodded vigorously and stepped aside, King Liku turned his head again and asked:

"Is there any latest response from the Navy? Who did they send and when will they arrive?"

"They said they set out a few days ago." A minister replied in a low voice, "But they only said they would send two lieutenant generals, and the specific candidates have not been revealed yet..."

"Two lieutenant generals?"

King Riku rubbed his eyebrows. This was indeed a terrifying combat power. Normally, it would be more than enough to sit in Tokushima.
