At the Supreme Command of the Armed Forces Meeting!

As a result, among the five, only Marcus Saint Mars, the highest boss of the Propaganda Administration who is in charge of history, science and technology, and propaganda, still supports the Ministry of Police.

After all, separating the military and police is beneficial to the stability of public security in various places, and with an additional Police Force, there will definitely be a need for a batch of new technological equipment, right?

Furthermore, if the Publicity Department organizes large-scale concerts or speeches in the future, the police are obligated to maintain order according to their duties.

Unlike the current naval branch, which is really indifferent. Every time, you have to greet the high-ranking officers at the Marine Headquarters first, and then pass the orders down layer by layer.

They only become serious when it comes to the Poneglyph.

However, Marcus Saint Mars knew that the resistance the Ministry of Police would face was not only from within the World Government, but also from the Affiliated Nation.

After all, this is taking away their judicial rights.

Currently, the various Affiliated Nation generally entrust the handling of civil disputes and conflicts to the sheriffs employed by the cities, who then adjudicate the disputes according to their own domestic laws.

In reality, it's a subjective judgment made by the king or other nobles. After all, few kingdoms bother to create a legal code, as overly comprehensive laws can often become a constraint on the nobles.

But the high and mighty Imu doesn't care about this obstacle or that obstacle!

"Let's start by establishing a basic Ministry of Police framework in the Affiliated Nation of the first half of the Grand Line as a pilot project."

"By next December, each Affiliated Nation's capital city must have a Police Station, with workers temporarily hired locally."

"The Marine Headquarters will need to transfer at least 10,000 marines to the police force."

The Five Elders remained kneeling and bowing, but each of them wore a different expression, yet no one dared to voice the slightest objection.

"As you command!"

They knew that, under Lord Imu's orders, the establishment of the Ministry of Police was inevitable, and this would surely cause undercurrents among the nations of the first half of the Grand Line.

The next day, at 1 p. m.

In front of the current World Government office building in Mary Geoise, two rows of Holy Land Garrison, clad in fine armor and holding spears, stood on either side of the road leading to the gate, serving as the most imposing backdrop with their eyes fixed straight ahead.

[Step, step, step, step]

A moment later, the first person to arrive was a middle-aged man with medium-length brown hair, wearing full golden armor and a white cloak draped over his back.

He held Visor -style helmet in his left hand, his cold, emotionless gaze sweeping back and forth between the warriors on either side.

"It's the Fleet Admiral!"

The Holy Land Garrison soldiers present were extremely familiar with this man; he was an image etched into their very souls.

Everyone whose gaze swept over them instinctively straightened their posture, and even those wearing helmets did not show the slightest change in expression.

They didn't even dare to look him in the eye as he walked through the gate; they truly kept their eyes fixed straight ahead!

"Knock knock knock."

The Fleet Admiral of the Holy Land Garrison arrived at the conference room of the Supreme Command of the Armed Forces, took a moment to catch his breath, and then gently knocked on the door.

"Enter."

"Grown ups."

Upon seeing the person sitting at the head of the conference table, he immediately bowed his head and respectfully greeted them.

"Emori, I knew you would be the first one to arrive. Please have a seat," Zambalong V. Saint Nusjuro said, looking at the other man with a serious expression.

The Shodai Kitetsu, which he had always cherished, lay quietly on the conference table in front of him.

"Yes!"

"Relax. Although this matter is related to your Holy Land Garrison, it's not really related to anything. Just listen."

"Yes, sir." The Fleet Admiral of the Holy Land Garrison named Emori sat upright and answered respectfully.

Meanwhile, outside the World Government headquarters building, three men and one woman met together, and judging from the epaulets on their Coat of Justice, they were actually two Admiral and two Vice Admiral.

"Um?"

Why are you here?

Sengoku looked at Sakazuki in his red suit with surprise, and Steel Bone, standing beside him, also looked puzzled. Sakazuki calmly replied, "The Supreme Command of the Armed Forces sent me a notification."

"It is indeed strange. Logically speaking, I am not qualified to attend a meeting of this level, but..." He said, frowning in confusion.

Normally, although she and Sakazuki are the Chief of Staff of the Marine Headquarters and a candidate for Navy Admiral Candidate, they are still Vice Admiral. Even if there is something they need to know, it should be conveyed to them after the Fleet Admiral Kong or Sengoku returns.

"Now that Sakazuki is here, what about Borsalino and Kuzan?" Sengoku asked.

"I don't know," Sakazuki said honestly.

This Steel Bone Kong knew, and he said, "Kuzan has already gone to the Polar Ice Continent to carry out a mission. The G-0 branch in Borsalino has just started, perhaps that's why they haven't been called here yet."

In comparison, Sakazuki's G-1 branch was right next to Mary Geoise, which was very convenient.

"Let's go in and we'll find out!"

Steel Bone, as was his habit, gave the orders and then led the way toward the World Government headquarters. Sengoku, Tsuru, Sakazuki followed in that order.

As they entered the already open conference room, they were surprised to find three people already seated at the conference table.

Zambalong V. Saint Nusjuro, Commander-in-Chief of the Supreme Command of the Armed Forces!

The current Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, Raymond!

Emori is the current commander of the Holy Land Garrison!

Needless to say, the first one is a general, and the next two are both Admiral. Adding in Kong and Sengoku, this meeting room has gathered four Admiral from the World Government's military.

Zephyr was supposed to come, but he was busy treating his asthma on Drum Island and had to be absent. As for participating via video conference using Visual Den Den Mushi, how could such a high-level military meeting be allowed to do that?

There is no such rule yet!

Let's begin.

Once the four naval personnel were seated, the Five Elders, without waiting for them to ask any questions, waved their hands and gave instructions to the government officials waiting nearby.

These officials in black didn't reply; they simply and efficiently placed the pre-prepared documents in front of each of the bigwigs.

The servants then placed a cup of matcha on the table, and finally, led by the officials, quickly left the meeting room, closing the door behind them.

The aroma of matcha filled the conference room in an instant.

This is a hobby of Zambalong V. Saint Nusjuro.

"You guys take a look first."

At this moment, Sengoku and the others noticed that there were many documents, which looked to be two or three centimeters thick. After hearing the order, they silently opened the documents and began to read them.

Zambalong V. Saint Nusjuro wasn't in a hurry either, sipping the fragrant matcha slowly, completely ignoring the increasingly surprised expressions on the faces of the others.

Before they knew it, time had slipped away silently amidst the aroma of tea, and the six of them had spent nearly an hour just looking at the documents.

The content above was truly astonishing, and the aspects involved were extremely complex. The sheer volume of information caused the people present to frown.

After reading it, the group looked at each other, unsure of where to begin.

At this moment, Zambalong V. Saint Nusjuro looked at them with a stern face.

"Let's talk about the Star Gate first."

Two chapters today, ten chapters on the 24th.
