Leading Two Hundred Officers!

"What method? Why only one ship? How fast can it be?"

Once he got serious, Garp immediately seized on the key points and asked a series of questions.

Vidal, without flinching, immediately explained what he could do and his ideas. Garp, after listening, was greatly impressed by how this young man had mastered the Devil Fruit ability.

He also wanted to ask what the name of that move was when he instantly appeared on the giant bull hundreds of meters away, killed someone, and then instantly returned.

"Alright then, we'll do it your way. I'll have all the officers of Commodore and above assemble here right away."

Garp patted his stomach and laughed as he stood up. "No, Vice Admiral, you have to stay." Vidal shook his head.

"Why!"

Seeing the look of surprise in Garp's eyes, Vidal calmly replied, "If all the elite and high-ranking combat forces are removed, what if this fleet encounters an accident en route? This is the New World."

"There's another point to consider: according to intelligence from headquarters, the people who attacked the G-3 Branch were Zangjing from the Flying Pirates."

"So, aside from the Zangjing and the Helandou, there are still more powerful Grand Governor and Gentlemen, as well as the real 'Golden Lion' Shiki, who haven't appeared yet."

"In this situation, how can we ensure they won't attack the fleet and buy more time for the Zangjing repository? Remember, they flew in from the sky!"

After listening to Vidal's long-winded explanation, Garp, Bogard, and the others present were stunned, but at the same time found it very reasonable.

Indeed, this possibility is not small. If Garp also leaves, G-3 might be saved, but the massive fleet of 10,000 men will definitely be lost.

"Impressive!" Rear Admiral Bogard thought to himself.

Garp then snapped out of his daze, tilting his head back and laughing uncontrollably, "Haha, as expected of Sengoku's disciple!"

His words came from the bottom of his heart; Vidal did indeed bear the shadow of the 'strategist' Sengoku.

How many people are you planning to bring?

Vidal already had a plan in mind. "A thousand First-Class Seaman, a hundred field officers, ten Commodore, Rear Admiral, and Sakazuki!"

"So little?"

Garp exclaimed in surprise, "Our opponents are Flying Pirates with seven ships of troops! You should know that their pirate ships are large warships comparable to American warships."

"After all, we also need to guard against an attack by the 'Golden Lion' with a large force," Vidal sighed.

"With me here, you don't need to worry. I'll give you two hundred Colonels, all of them!"

"Remember, if you encounter the Zangjing attacking G-3, your mission is to hold out and await reinforcements. You are not required to capture them, so do not risk your lives, and absolutely do not pursue them recklessly."

Garp solemnly warned, "Never underestimate the Second Governor of the Flying Pirates; his abilities are quite troublesome!"

"Yes, I'll handle it." Vidal nodded.

"Okay, go ahead!"

Garp waved his hand, then took out Den Den Mushi and issued an order to the entire ship.

Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Vidal nodded happily to his lieutenant Bogard, then used Geppo to fly off the deck and return to Sakazuki's side.

At that moment, Sakazuki was listening to Garp's orders through Den Den Mushi, and the more he listened, the more excited he became.

"Well done, Vidal!"

"How about it? Isn't it great working with me?" Vidal chuckled as he landed from the air.

"Um!"

Sakazuki nodded emphatically. This military operation had given him a thorough understanding of Vidal's capabilities.

He was particularly pleased with Vidal's cold-blooded attitude towards the Roger Pirates.

If it weren't for the attack on G-3, he believed that under Vidal's command, the Roger Pirates would have suffered heavy casualties, if not completely wiped out.

"Then support me as the next Fleet Admiral-- "

Vidal crossed his arms in front of him and smirked as he made a sarcastic remark.

"I'll consider it!" Sakazuki replied in a deep voice.

But we'll have to wait and see how things unfold, since the future is full of uncertainties and no one knows what might happen, so he didn't make any definitive statements.

At the same time, the two robust men, each three meters tall and standing side by side, saw streaks of white figures flying out from the other nine warships.

They were like swarms of bees, converging on this side.

The continuous thumping of Geppo, like the buzzing of a swarm of bees, instantly enveloped the entire fleet's sky, creating a truly magnificent sight.

This was a scene where two hundred Colonels and twenty Commodore and Rear Admiral had gathered!

Such a sight filled Vidal with pride and emotion. If a mere two hundred or so officers were like this, it was hard to imagine the scene of one hundred thousand elite naval troops gathered together during the Paramount War.

He remembered that most of the navy personnel present at the time were officers and generals cloaked in the Justice Coat!

"Such a massive war effort must be brought under my control."

Overwhelmed with emotion, Vidal licked his dry lips, the flames in his eyes burning even brighter and hotter under the blazing sun.

"Sakazuki, you'll be my temporary adjutant for this operation. Help me integrate them." "Okay."

Without any hesitation, even though it was his own warship, Sakazuki strode over and began directing the assembled officers to line up on the deck.

Those Rear Admiral generals with higher ranks than Sakazuki and Commodore of equal rank did not express any dissatisfaction.

They still vividly remembered the terrifying Magma-Magma Fruit ability from the previous battle with the Roger Pirates. One person overpowering two pirates with bounties of two or three hundred million was no joke!

These Rear Admirals and Commodores weren't fools; they knew perfectly well that Sakazuki, once he matured, would most likely become a Marine Admiral in the future.

Meanwhile, Vidal went to the bow of the warship and activated the power of the Woods-Woods Fruit to modify it.

[Buzz--]

A pleasing green light bloomed in his hand.

At the same time, a large number of bare logs began to emerge from the bow. According to Vidal's wishes, they were shaped at a visible speed into an open bull's Oxhead with sharp horns. Instantly, this warship belonging to Sakazuki became another 'Oxhead Battleship'.

"Let it charge for an hour first, otherwise the weather might not be this good once we fly out of this area."

Vidal smiled as he looked at the excessively hot sun.

The temperature was quite hot even for him, a person in a vegetative state, let alone the other naval personnel in the fleet. Even the seawater around the warships was shrouded in a faint mist of evaporation.

"I also need to replenish my energy; the Second Governor of the Flying Pirates is no small fry."

Vidal got himself a deck chair, then lay down on it and leisurely closed his eyes, enjoying the slightly overheated sunbathing, looking like he was taking a nap.

This left the officers and soldiers lined up behind him, waiting under the scorching sun for him to come over and say a few words, speechless.

Sakazuki glanced at it too, but the two had studied and lived together at the Zephyr Training Camp for a year, and he knew very well what Vidal was doing.

"Come on, let's go fill our stomachs, there's a big battle coming up later!"

Sakazuki felt his stomach was a little empty, and with a cold face, led the team into the cabin.

Actually, let's not even talk about him. After several hours of fierce fighting with Roger Pirates, weren't those two hundred-plus officers also in the same boat?

In a world where physical strength is the foundation of all power, the importance of food goes beyond mere survival.

Most of the Marine Headquarters' budget is spent on food.

In addition to patrolling and hunting pirates, the main tasks of warships include hunting sea monsters and Sea Kings every day, because their meat has higher nutritional value.
