Chapter 34 The troublesome Porusalino
“Polusalino, regarding your previous application for building a swimming pool on a warship for the physical and mental health of sailors, it was approved, but the scope of the pilot Only for your ship for the time being!"
Marshal Warring States threw the stamped document over with a dark face.
It is absurd to build a swimming pool on a warship, but it is better than letting Porusalino passively work.
“Oh! I can finally build a swimming pool on the boat. It’s great. I’ll find someone to modify it right away!”
Porusalino also didn't expect Marshal Sengoku to have such a hand. He was indeed a 'smart general' of the navy.
Seeing Porusalino leave the office with the application in hand, Marshal Sengoku also breathed a sigh of relief.
For this Porusalino, who became an admiral at almost the same time as him, even Cyborg Sora, the navy marshal before the Warring States Period, had no good solution.
This guy neither cares about power nor money, nor does he have goals he wants to pursue like Sakaski or Kuzan.
The position in the Navy is just a job for Porusalino. It is good that he can complete the work while fishing. It is undoubtedly too much to expect him to work overtime.
Logically speaking, a salty fish like Porusalino should be unlikely to be welcomed by his superiors.
However, Porosalino was too strong and had made enough contributions without knowing it, so he had to be promoted to admiral in the end.
The two navy marshals before and after them also tried their best to make Porusalino work well, and finally figured out this way of getting along with Polusalino.
But as long as you can tolerate Porusalino's laziness and idleness, in a sense, this guy is the best subordinate.
At least Porusalino will not be too willful, even if he is passive and sabotage, it is within the scope allowed by the rules.
"Swimming pool... is it better to be open-air or indoors... Ha, I almost forgot that I have to discuss it with Nami first!"
Porusalino is very self-aware, and the Warring States Marshal was willing to approve his construction. The swimming pool is already the bottom line. Even if there is a warning of 'slow work', Marshal Sengoku is unlikely to agree to use the navy's budget to build a swimming pool for Polusalino.
Unless Porusalino does not hesitate to threaten with a strike, there is really no need to think about it carefully.
Building a swimming pool, even on a warship, only costs tens of millions of Baileys. It is not worth using Bailey's trump card for this.
"Nami-chan, I'm back~"
Porusalino, who put on a serious admiral's uniform and a windbreaker, walked into the office. For some reason, Nami preferred to see Porosalino in a navy uniform.
So every time Porusalino wants to please Nami, he will take the initiative to put on this 'battle suit'. In this way... As long as the request is not too excessive, Nami will usually agree to it. .
“Hmph!”
Nami, who was writing and drawing behind Porusalino’s luxurious desk, was delighted when she heard the voice.
Then he wrinkled his nose and snorted cutely.
The hateful guy left for more than ten days and only made two phone calls to come back. This is really not too much!
"Hey, don't be angry, look what I brought you..."
Polusalino was already prepared, and took out an exquisite pair from his pocket with his backhand necklace, and walked to Nami with a smile.
After several rounds of sweet words, Nami was easily coaxed to smile. Then he took the opportunity to take out the application for building a swimming pool and asked Nami to arrange the construction of the swimming pool.
As Porusalino's adjutant and financial officer, Nami is not only responsible for managing Porusalino's small treasury, but is also in charge of all budgets and expenditures under Porusalino's name that can be put on the table.
"The current shipwrights and engineering department staff in the headquarters are busy repairing warships and strengthening fortresses. I'm afraid they won't be able to allocate manpower in a short time."
Nami was very happy to accept the gift. She sat naturally in Porusalino's arms. Her petite figure was like a large doll compared to Porosalino's tall body.
"Hey, is that so... Then let's entrust other branches or the shipwrights of the Seven Waters City to renovate it!"
Polusalino has been looking forward to the swimming pool for a long time. As a Devil Fruit user, he cannot swim in the sea. The active ingredient PYROBROIN in seawater will make him weak.
And when there is a swimming pool, he can swim in the water that has been specially treated to remove PYROBROIN. Of course, the key point is that he can see little Nami in a bikini~
"I'm afraid it won't work. Your ship has already Being included in the battle sequence as the first line of defense to block the outer sea, if you go to other branches or even the capital of Seven Rivers, you will not be able to reach the combat position within the scheduled time..."
Nami showed some distress. little expression.
She is not as enthusiastic about the swimming pool as Porusalino, but having a swimming pool on the ship is something worth looking forward to.
"It has been incorporated into the combat order... Speaking of Nami, how many years has my ship been in service?"
Porusalino touched his chin with a meaningful expression on his face.
"Is it your ship? I remember that the current ship was assigned to you eleven years ago. Counting the six years before that, it has been in service for a total of seventeen years." As Polusali Adjutant No's Nami is still very competent. She even remembers clearly how many times Porusalino's ship underwent repairs.
"Is there a possibility...to exchange my ship with the warship blocking the port defense..."
Polusalino is not a picky character either. Otherwise, they would have refused to use the old ship as a base ship.
However, it is a rare opportunity to exchange for a new ship, and it is an open and honest exchange of the old ship for the new one, so there is no reason to refuse.
"Is this okay?"
Nami instantly understood Porusalino's intention, which was simply to take the initiative to send the ship to the front line.
In this way, as long as it is sunk, there is naturally a reason to ask the Warring States Marshal for a new ship.
And as Porusalino is an admiral, as long as he asks, the new ship assigned to him must be the best.
"It turns out that that ship will be eliminated in a few years. The headquarters has now begun to install new warships inlaid with sea tower stones. Is it ridiculous for me, a general, to still use old ships?"< br>
Porusalino spoke angrily, completely forgetting that the headquarters had tried to change his ship several times before, but he had always refused because he was too lazy to move.
At that time, Porusalino's idea was also very simple. As long as he kept using an old ship that was too slow to cross the windless zone, he would not have to perform those troublesome tasks.
After all, by the time his ship arrived, most of the troublesome missions were almost gone. With that old warship, he couldn't catch up even if he wanted to.
