Chapter 154 Tanjiro’s determination!
[Passers who want to hug Luo Feng’s thigh: If Mr. Kizaru is willing to take action, then it’s safe, but first you have to find Boss Chu. 】
[Porusalino: This is a problem. It would be easier to solve if you wait for me to come to you like DIO. Otherwise, I don’t have extra time to waste with those ghosts. 】
【Kamado Tanjiro: Yes! I'll try to find a way! 】
[Passers who want to hug Luo Feng’s thigh: You have to work hard to become stronger yourself, otherwise it will be too painful to be eaten by a ghost before Boss Kizaru takes action. 】
[Kamado Tanjiro: Yes! I won't let you down! ]
[Kobayashi: Tanjiro-san is really energetic~]
[Kamado Tanjiro: Ah! yes! Thanks for the compliment! 】
[Haihara Ai: ...I always feel like a hot-blooded idiot...]
[Passers who want to hug Luo Feng’s thigh: Don’t slander my brother-in-law! 】
[Kobayashi: I’m suddenly curious, what does Tanjiro-san’s sister look like? 】
【Kamado Tanjiro: Nezuko is a famous beauty in the village! 】
[Passers who want to hug Luo Feng’s thigh: I bear witness! Nezuko is so cute! ]
[Fubuki: That’s right, no wonder some people are so attentive...]
[Porusalino:? ? ? 】
[A passer-by who wants to hug Luo Feng’s thigh: Ah... Mr. Kizaru, Nezuko is still young...]
[Porusalino: ...I won’t help you if you keep doing this. ]
[A passerby who wants to hug Luo Feng’s thigh: No, it’s just a joke. My brother-in-law has to ask Mr. Kizaru to save the situation. 】
[Haihara Ai: Speaking of stupid dogs, you are no longer weak now, right? Didn’t you catch a pretty big tiger last time? Isn’t there anything you can do to help? 】
[Passenger who wanted to hug Luo Feng’s thigh: How should I put it? With my current strength, it’s easy to hit the lower string. I still can’t hit the upper string. The upper and lower strings of the Twelve Ghost Moon are basically the same. Not the same thing. 】
[A passer-by who wants to hug Luo Feng’s thigh: Boss Dan is also quite disgusting. It’s not a question of whether he’s strong or not. When he encounters someone he can’t beat, he can hide and keep his opponent cool. 】
[A passer-by who wants to hug Luo Feng’s thigh: If you don’t find a way to deal with Boss Chu at once, it will be impossible to completely eliminate the ghosts. ]
[Kobayashi: It sounds really difficult to deal with...]
[Haihara Ai: So ghosts can live for a long time? Then someone in our group should be very interested, right? 】
[Orochimaru: Oh, you really understand me, Haibara. 】
[Haihara Ai: Aren’t you specialized in researching these things? Given the current progress in researching pure gold, given your personality, you shouldn’t place all your hopes on pure gold, right? 】
[Porusalino: Huh? I thought you had convinced little sister Hermione? 】
[A passer-by who wanted to hug Luo Feng’s thigh: I’m shocked, hasn’t Boss Orochimaru taken care of Hermione yet? It shouldn’t be, you are a professional counterpart! 】
[Kobayashi: emmmm, why do you make it sound like Orochimaru-san is a human trafficker. 】
[Orochimaru: I’m not the only one who needs to convince Miss Hermione. Isn’t Porusalino-kun interested in the specialties of the magical world? 】
[Orochimaru: Although we convinced the principal of the magic school last time, it seems that he doesn't have much sincerity in cooperation at the moment. 】
[Passers who want to hug Luo Feng’s thigh: That’s true. I always feel that Dumbledore is too defensive of us. Except for what we have agreed upon before, he really won’t give us anything more...]< br>
[Porusalino: Well, after all, we came to the door ourselves, so it’s not surprising that others are on guard. 】
[Haihara Ai: If there is a misunderstanding, we should try our best to explain it clearly, and we have no ill intentions...]
The world of ghosts is destroyed, and Tanjiro, who has just completed his training, lies down on the grass. He stared with excitement and anticipation at the virtual interface that suddenly appeared in front of him.
After experiencing the tragedy of his family being destroyed, he finally found the hope of saving his sister Nezuko from this place called the dimensional chat group.
But before that, he had to follow what the big passerby in the group said and work hard to become stronger and protect Nezuko.
When Nezuko is turned back into a human, she will have to seek revenge on the villain who killed his family and turned his sister into what she is now!
When Tanjiro thought of this, his whole body was filled with strength. He even tried to get up regardless of his physical fatigue, and shouted loudly to practice chopping.
Standing far downwind to avoid being detected by Tanjiro's sense of smell, and using the big tree to block his figure, the former Mizuhashira Taki Sakonji was watching this scene quietly.
The face hidden behind the mask showed a bit of relief and struggle. When he first met Tanjiro, he was actually not very optimistic about this kid joining the Demon Slayer Corps.
However, Tanjiro used his own efforts to gradually change his mind, but the more he did, the more hesitant he was as a former water column.
He has lost too many students and does not want to see the children he has trained with his own hands fall on the road to slaying ghosts again.
But Tanjiro's situation is different. Whether it is the blood feud between his family members or the need to save his sister, he is destined to continue along this path.
The only thing that Kintaki Sakonji can do is to teach Tanjiro to become stronger as much as possible, so that he can slash the sword in his hand more powerfully when facing those damn ghosts.
While Tanjiro was busy training, Porusalino in the pirate world was also busy, but he was busy rehearsing and preparing for the Navy Marshal promotion ceremony in a few days.
For such a major event involving the face of the navy and the dignity of the new marshal, even Porusalino, who is about to become marshal of the navy, has to cooperate a little to avoid making mistakes during the ceremony.
Fortunately, as Marshal of the Navy, Porusalino only needs to appear in the final stage, and the number of rehearsals is far less than that of the staff responsible for the ceremony.
However, compared with the lieutenant generals of the headquarters who were acting as spectators on both sides at this time and whispering to each other, such a task was definitely not that easy.
After all, the lieutenant generals of the headquarters who served as background throughout the entire process did not need to do anything, and had extra free time to watch Porusalino have fun.
"It's been so long, but it's still hard to imagine... The candidate to succeed Marshal of the Warring States Period will be Mr. Porusalino..."
Lieutenant General Stoloberg crossed his arms and looked on. He looked at Porusalino, who was standing on the podium, quite complicatedly.
Although he and Porusalino are juniors and seniors, and they have a good friendship with each other, as a hawkish navy, he still can't accept the reality until now.
It’s not that Porusalino is unqualified, it’s just that I’m used to his salty fish manner, but I’m a little uncomfortable with being so serious now.
"So you are all too young. That guy Porusalino was not like he is now...well, before. For a while, many people thought that he would take over the position of Marshal Kong. ”
Lieutenant General Gumir of the G-2 branch said happily with a bulging belly.
As one of the first members of the navy to join the 'Moyu' faction, Lieutenant General Gumil has witnessed almost the entire process of Porusalino's transformation from a rising star in the navy to a general of Moyu.
It is precisely because of this that he is very pleased with Porusalino's change. This feeling is actually a bit like 'hoping for a child to succeed'. Of course, when it comes to Gumir and Polusalino, it is probably I didn't expect that my unreliable salted fish boss would turn around one day.
Especially the members of the 'fishing' faction who follow Porusalino have always been a minority in the navy. Although they are not squeezed out by the hawks and doves in the navy, they are openly and covertly It is inevitable to look down upon.
Now that I have made the decision, I will naturally have to get it back tenfold. Even those who choose to join Porusalino are mostly not complacent guys, but this psychological gap alone is enough to make them The navies of other factions felt very uncomfortable.
The most unlucky ones are those 'speculators' who actually don't care about hawks and doves. For them, it doesn't matter whether they are hawks or doves. It is enough as long as the leader of their faction can become a marshal of the navy.
People like this were even the mainstream among the top brass of the Navy for a time. The problem is that no one of these 'speculators' was optimistic about the dead salted fish of Porusalino before. Naturally, it is impossible for them to choose to join the 'mo' who has no future. Fish' faction.
As a result, now that the new marshal has been selected, everyone is dumbfounded on the spot, even if the 'speculators' want to choose to change the court, it is too late.
Fortunately, such troubles basically only belong to the top brass of the Navy. Except for Tina and Smoker, who have long been regarded as the future of the faction, the ordinary colonels of the headquarters do not need to care about these.
That is a worry that only belongs to the generals of the headquarters. For the vast majority of the middle and lower-level navy, no matter which general becomes the marshal of the navy, they are worthy of cheering.
After all, those who can become admirals have made countless achievements. Even the most unexpected Porusalino, if you think about it carefully, no one will have any objection to his qualifications to become a marshal.
"...That period of time must have been many years ago. After all, when I was an ordinary sailor, Mr. Porusalino was already the same person as before..."
Lieutenant General Maynard, who was much younger than Lieutenant General Gumir, said somewhat depressedly. As a fanatical follower of Akainu, he had always been looking forward to the time when Sakaski became the marshal of the navy.
No one expected that the final winner would be neither Sakaski nor Kuzan, who had the strongest fight with him, but Porusalino, who seemed to pose no threat.
The 'answer sheet' that Porusalino handed over was too perfect. For the navy, Porusalino, who killed two pirate emperors and injured one, was undoubtedly the one who stood up for the war. The biggest contributor.
For the World Government and the Five Old Stars, the pure gold in Porusalino's hands is a more important surprise than the death of Whitebeard. Even if it is just to ensure that they can get the pure gold without any loss, they are willing to pinch their noses and let Bo Rusalino was promoted to Admiral of the Navy.
After all, at Porusalino's age, even if he ends up serving as a naval marshal, it will only take a few decades at most.
For the five old stars who can stay young forever after possessing pure gold, time is no longer their enemy.
It is a pity that the Five Old Stars underestimated Porusalino’s ‘ambition’, and they did not expect that what Polusalino gave them was just a degraded version of pure gold. "Can I just read from the manuscript? Isn't this too insincere? The sailors would prefer to see me improvise..."
While the lieutenant generals of the headquarters participating in the rehearsal were chatting, Porusalino on the stage was also 'bargaining' with Lieutenant General Ahe, who was in charge of the promotion ceremony.
Before taking office, the naval marshals of the past dynasties often delivered a speech similar to policy principles. The main content was generally a summary of the past and prospects for the future.
The former is a formulaic compliment unless the previous Admiral was terrible to a certain extent, while the latter is the time for the Admiral's performance.
But when we arrived at Porusalino, we suddenly thought of something fancy.
After all, the same routine for hundreds of years is a bit boring, so why not try something exciting and give the sailors who have never seen the world a little shock of another world.
Unfortunately, Marshal Sengoku and Lieutenant General Ahe resolutely resisted Porusalino's proposal. The two old men, who had spent their entire lives worrying about the navy, just wanted to complete the handover smoothly and did not want to see anything that might cause an accident.
"With your reputation in the Navy Headquarters, you don't need to do those messy things. Just take over the Sengoku position honestly."
Lieutenant General Ahe replied with a calm expression. Tao, whether as a senior who joined the navy earlier than Porusalino or from Gion, Lieutenant General Ahe knew enough about Polusalino.
It would be fine if it was Porusalino who was in a salty state before, but now this guy has clearly gradually returned to the 'naval monster' he used to be.
From the perspective of the navy, this is actually a good thing. After all, a dead salted fish is definitely not a qualified naval marshal.
But everything has its pros and cons. Porusalino, who became active again, not only got rid of his salty state, but also restored his past messy style of doing things.
Lieutenant General Ahe, who was responsible for preparing for the marshal promotion ceremony, was almost numbed by Porusalino, but there was really no suitable candidate besides her, so he could only bite the bullet and continue to organize it.
“It’s like this every time, don’t you get tired of it?”
Porusalino tapped the podium lightly and said out of boredom.
According to the rehearsal process, it should be time for him to stand on the stage and give a speech. However, if Porusalino wants to be lazy, obviously no blind guy will pop up and accuse the newcomer. The Admiral was unruly.
Even Lieutenant General Ahe turned a blind eye. As long as Porusalino didn't mess around, everything could be discussed.
“When Marshal Kong was appointed as the marshal of the navy, I was just an ordinary sailor!”
Vice Admiral Ahe said calmly. Like her, I could witness three marshals one after another. There are not many navies in the world, and most of them will retire after their prime years. The probability of becoming a senior member of the navy is less than one in ten thousand.
"That's really amazing... I guess this should be the last rehearsal, right?"
Polusalino shook his head with regret, but in the end it was just a whim, Ahe Even if the Lieutenant General disagreed, he didn't force it.
In order to allow Porusalino to be promoted to the rank of Navy Marshal with great glory, the headquarters was almost extremely busy during this period, and rehearsals like today were held no less than ten times in total.
Fortunately, Porusalino only had to attend the last few rehearsals. Even Marshal Sengoku, who was almost too busy to take a break, was pulled over by Lieutenant General Ahe to go through the process in advance.
"Well, this is the last time. The promotion ceremony will be officially held in three days."
Lieutenant General Ahe also breathed a sigh of relief. Although it is not particularly smooth, so far , everything was still within the range of her expectations.
There were no problems in the process of the promotion ceremony. The senior navy officials who were supposed to come to the headquarters to attend the ceremony were basically all present. The only ones left were Zefa, who was still on the way, and Meldavia and Meldavia, who were out on missions. Lieutenant General Vivian.
However, three days is enough time for them to rush back to their headquarters. If that doesn't work, they can adjust their seats temporarily. Anyway, the promotion ceremony of Navy Marshal does not require that all senior navy officials must be present.
"Three days, there is still plenty of time..."
Polusalino silently estimated the time in his heart, looked in the direction of the new world and said softly.
New World, Wano Country
The Beast Pirates, all of whom have joined the Space Dark Matter Pirates, have moved their base from Onigashima to the land of Wano Country .
The current Ghost Island was changed by Boros into a gladiatorial arena, or a playground where he unilaterally beat Kaido.
‘Boom! boom! Boom! ’
Even on the coast of Wano Country, you can feel the violent vibrations coming from the direction of Onigashima, as if two monsters are constantly colliding and fighting on the island.
The Ghost Island, which originally looked like a skull with horns, is now almost flattened. The flat ground is still filled with numerous large holes. Jhin Cong, who transformed into a pteranodon. Passing through the air, I couldn't help but shudder when I saw those big holes.
Every collapse and big hole on the island was made by Boros, but the one who was used as a hammer was Kaido.
Just thinking of Boros' instructions, Jhin could only bite the bullet and land on the island.
As soon as I landed, I felt a sudden shock, and at the same time I heard a huge roar coming from the central area of Onigashima.
However, Jhin relaxed a lot at this time. According to past experience, this should mean that the battle between Boss Boros and Brother Kaido has come to an end.
Although in the eyes of others, it was Boros who beat Kaido unilaterally, but out of respect for Kaido, the three disasters would not make him lose face.
"Huh...huh...you guy...where did you get this monster from..."
Kaido, who still maintained his half-human, half-dragon form, lay faceless in the pit, his body covered in disgrace, his chest heaving violently and he was breathing heavily, and his face covered with dragon scales was full of confusion and unwillingness.
Until now, he still can't understand why there is such a powerful monster like Boros in this world. Even Captain Rocks can't be this guy's opponent, right? !
"You have asked me this many times. I am just an ordinary space tyrant...a space pirate. Pirates like me should be very common on the sea."< br>
Poros, who was standing aside without even a speck of dust on his face, turned his head, glanced at Kaido with his huge one eye, and spoke calmly.
Boros is quite satisfied with Kaido, the top combatant recommended to him by Porusalino.
His own strength is much stronger than Meruza Garudo, and he is rough-skinned and tough, and his key points are particularly strong. Unlike the previous top combatant, who treated fighting with him as an errand.
Even after being beaten so many times, you can still see the fighting spirit in Kaido's eyes. Boros likes this kind of 'unyielding' subordinates.
Kaido unconsciously shrank his neck after being glanced at by Boros, but then he felt very embarrassed and gritted his teeth and glared at Boros.
"Stop joking! There is no way a monster like you could be born in the sea! And you are so strong, why do you still come to trouble me!"
Recall this paragraph What happened to time, even Kaido couldn't help but curse.
He now understands a little bit how those guys who were ravaged by him in the past felt when they faced him.
Boros is an irresistible natural disaster. Even a man as strong as Kaido will feel somewhat 'broken' when facing a monster that cannot be defeated no matter what.
What made him feel most uncomfortable was that this damn one-eyed monster had been full of food all day long and challenged him to a duel. Kaido's super defense and recovery ability only caused him to be beaten repeatedly. reason.
"Because I want to become the Pirate King, I need qualified subordinates, and you are the top combatant I selected."
Poros replied casually, conversations like this happen almost every day It was all going on, and Kaido didn't believe Boros' origins from beginning to end, but Boros insisted that he was just an ordinary space pirate.
"Bah! I am a beast! Not a bullshit combatant!!!"
Kaido roared loudly, and after roaring, he struggled to get up again and risk his life with Boros.
Fortunately, before Boros could take action to calm down Kaido, Jhin's figure appeared in their sight.
"Boros Boros, Brother Kaido, I have something to report..."
Jin secretly glanced at Kaido's embarrassed appearance and carefully knelt down on one knee.
Except for Kaido, the iron monster, all the pirates in the Beast Pirates quickly recognized the reality in the face of Boros' overwhelming strength, even the three disasters who were the big posters were no exception.
Fortunately, Kaido did not blame them for this, but became increasingly angry at Boros.
“What’s the matter?”
Poros released his domineering energy casually and sensed it for a while. He didn’t notice those guys who overestimated their capabilities and wanted to resist him. The expression on his face was somewhat Pity.
"According to your instructions, we have been paying attention to the news at the Navy Headquarters. The ceremony for the promotion of Navy Admiral Kizaru to Marshal will begin soon..."
Jhin answered honestly, considering his loyalty to Kaido, it was not like he had not planned an operation to overthrow Boros and rescue Kaido.
However, Boros's strength is too outrageous. Even with Jhin's IQ and planning ability, he is stuck on how to defeat Boros.
With no choice but to watch, Boros trains Kaido continuously every day. Fortunately, Kaido's defense and recovery ability are super strong. Even if he keeps getting beaten like this, he will not die... Bar?
"Tsk... the time is almost up, why don't you accept my invitation, Kaido."
Poros's eyes condensed slightly, and then he turned his gaze to the still lying Kaido, who was on the ground, asked expressionlessly.
