"tick~tick~"

"Sa~Sa~"

In the quiet office, He buried his head in front of the case, and wrote his own comments on each promotion report. Even though most of them were rhetorical templates, the workload was a lot.

In fact, the crane can completely hand over these tasks to the people below, and then sign it himself, or even make his signature into a seal like Skyler, and give it to others to affix it.

However, among these reports, there are so few copies that He wanted to write by himself, specifically picking out more than ten points to complete this kind of differentiated treatment by himself, but He was unwilling to do it.

On the opposite side of Crane, she thought that the female navy was Schuyler's student Shuangyue Guina. She was obviously a little uneasy at this time, and her hands were constantly grasping her pants.

In fact, Guina didn't get nervous as soon as she arrived. On the contrary, she got some hints from Nurkic who informed her, so she was in a good mood when she came.

But after arriving, He just arranged for her to sit down and started working on his own. Now that an hour has passed, He still has no intention of stopping.

And with Guina's excellent observation skills, she can judge that in the past hour, the crane didn't even look at her, so maybe it's not even the so-called observation or stress test.

For some reason, Guina suddenly had a feeling that the Lieutenant General Crane in front of her was very similar to her teacher. Lieutenant General Crane was still so kind and kind before.

Even when he punished himself and others, he couldn't bear it, and even after the punishment was over, he immediately cared about his body and mood.

But what happened today? Lieutenant General Crane's quiet and somewhat icy feeling is just like the teacher who usually sits at the bow of the boat and thinks. It seems elegant and gentle, but it has a sense of distance that is insurmountable.

Gu Yina didn't know why the crane showed two completely different sides. At first, she thought it was her own illusion, but the longer she sat opposite the crane, the greater the pressure and anxiety in her heart.

Even... I don't know why, Guina wanted to apologize, even if she didn't do anything wrong at all, but at this moment, she just wanted to apologize.

But the untouchable aura exuded by He He made her dare not even apologize.

After a while, there were only three files left under Crane's subordinates. The top one was Smog. Even if it was read backwards, Guina was still in a state of high tension and high hit. Read every word written by the crane.

Crane is like a replay monitor, writing down all the shortcomings and mistakes of Smog in the past. Yang and then restrain.

But when the crane started another line, and according to the template, changed thanks to Smog's advantages and achievements, the crane's movements stopped, the pen in his hand turned around his fingers, and then he was placed beside him.

"Have you been waiting for a long time? When you are old, you can only focus on one thing at a time."

Gu Yina, who was staring at the file and waiting for the crane to write the next line, was taken aback by the warmth of the crane, with a granny-like hoarse voice and occasional shrill voice.

Gu Yina, who came back to her senses, looked at the gentle and kind smile on the crane's face, as well as the temperament like a spring breeze, which made Gu Yina doubt again, which one is Lieutenant General Crane.

However, Guina quickly replied: "No, no, Lieutenant General Crane, I'm fine."

Seeing that Guina was a little flustered, Crane was not in a hurry, but put the pen aside, and then pushed the few strands of silver hair that fell in front of him behind his ears.

Maybe it's because the hair of the elderly is very close, even if it's just casually fiddling, the hair stays soft where its owner wants it to stay.

After giving Guina enough time, He Cai asked: "Guina, I heard Skyler say, have you thought about leading the detachment yourself?"

Gu Yina's emotions were withdrawn at this time. After hearing He's question, she nodded seriously, although she still couldn't be like her teacher, to achieve the kind of firm justice that went all the way to the dark.

But she had already realized clearly enough that Skyler, and the distorted justice within the power of the Zhanye Detachment, was not suitable for her.

He smiled, gently smoothed the information with both hands, and then said: "You young people are really amazing, you are already capable of leading a detachment at such a young age, how old are you now? Twenty-three? Twenty-four? "

"twenty two."

"Twenty-two, I am at your age, and I am still a clerk in the headquarters. I have not even had the opportunity to go to sea a few times. However, this era also needs fresh power like you."

Crane reached out and took a large bowl with a lot of candies and small cakes that was put aside, put it in front of Guina, and motioned to Guina to be casual, as if a grandmother was talking to her granddaughter.

Under the constant hints of the crane's eyes and gestures, Guina still picked up a piece of candy, but before she raised her hand, the crane said, "Try this, it's even better."

Guina put down the candy, followed the position of Crane's fingers, and picked up a piece of candy that looked dark and only covered with a layer of translucent sugar coating. After putting it in her mouth, Guina's expression became complicated.

Because the taste of the candy is indescribable, it has the sour and sweetness that candy should have, but the flavor is very... complex, and has a strong medicinal smell, which reminds Guina of her mother's when she was a child. Room.

"Haha~ You are very similar to your teacher."

Seeing another young man eating licorice candy in pain, the crane had a happy smile on his face, and at the same time he picked up a piece and put it in his mouth. Unlike Guina or Skyler, the crane enjoyed it very much.

After a while, He Cai asked, "What kind of detachment do you want to lead? Combat? Logistics? Expulsion? Pursuit? Or a coordinated force with a single function?"

Hearing this, Guina restrained the saliva from her mouth, swallowed twice, and said, "I want to set up an all-round detachment, just like the teacher and Lieutenant General Garp."

"Well..." He's long tail sound made Guina a little worried, but He still nodded and said: "No problem, it is very suitable for a potential young man like you.

However, as usual, I still want to ask, what does justice mean to you? "

The question is traditional, broad, and even hollow, but nearly every potential navy has been asked, or something similar.

Skyler had been questioned even before he joined the Navy, and the person who asked the question was Kong, who was still the Admiral of the Navy at the time, but Kong's question was more precise.

Because he didn't expect Skyler, who looked like a teenager at the time, to give any in-depth answer, but then he was empty.

In more than one speech, he used this story to brag about his knowledge of people back then.

But obviously the crane felt that Guina should face a broader but more suitable problem. The broad problem has its flaws, but it also has its advantages.

Precise questions can get precise answers, but broad questions sometimes bring unexpected angles that even the questioner can't think of, and answer them from a level that you haven't thought about.

It's just that such a question is more demanding for the person who answers, and the level and vision will be directly exposed, and even the crane has more than once encountered a brigadier general who can't even speak completely.

Gu Yina kept pursing her lips at this time, which reflected that the crane had seen it many times, so there was no accident, but waited quietly, whether it could be sorted out is the standard of whether a navy has the qualifications to become a general.

There is no standard answer to this question, and even the standard answer of those clichés is the most non-standard answer, because sincerity is also one of the cores of this question.

Guina hadn't thought about using clichés to answer. To be more precise, she didn't even know the template clichés that should be there. After all, this kind of thing was not popular in the Zhanye Detachment at all.

And her decision to leave the Zhanye Detachment was only a decision made half a year ago. Since then, she has continued to execute justice, and no one has instructed her on what kind of test she needs to go through to become a general.

Guina was silent for a long time. If it was another brigadier general who was questioned, the crane might give a low score in his heart and change to a more simple question.

But Guina is different, not because she is Skyler's student, so the crane is willing to give her more tolerance, on the contrary, she wants Guina to answer this more difficult question.

Because it is impossible for Guina to end just by becoming a general. Perhaps it is difficult for Guina to catch up with generals and naval heroes, but at least, she cannot be lost in the group of generals.

After thinking for a long time, Guina finally said: "I think...justice is the road to the right goal, and fortunately, the road to justice to the right goal is not narrow and single.

Compared with the pirates who seem to do whatever they want and take the so-called freedom as their banner, the road of justice is actually more tolerant, and everyone can walk out of their own pace on this road, and even...

Embark on a path that goes against the mainstream, but is equally correct, and leads to the light. "

Crane nodded. This answer was not the best answer she had heard, but she liked it very much. She looked at Guina and asked, "What about yourself?"

"For myself...I can't say those sobering words, but...for me, justice is the mission that I will pursue and uphold for the rest of my life.

And this persistence is something that my father, my teachers, myself, and everyone who knows me can be proud of. For me, that's enough. "

"Interesting, you young people always like to use your whole life to refer to the rest of your life. It's really enviable."

He smiled and nodded, then said: "Do Lao Shen a favor, go to the archives to find out your personal file and bring it back to Lao Shen, thank you."

Guina looked at the crane in a daze, is this the end of the conversation? But she still has a lot of words and doubts she wants to express, or she doesn't know how to express.

Moreover, she didn't know how to judge her own question and answer, right? is it bad?

Or even scarier... mundane?

Even though there are thousands of words in his heart to say, but now the crane has resumed writing, the current Guina, but not the slightest idea of ​​watching the crane give Smog's comments.

In other words, she couldn't concentrate her mind at all at this time, and just stood up blankly.

"Squeak~"

Crane frowned as the legs of the chair rubbed against the ground, making a high-pitched noise that made no one feel comfortable.

However, Guina didn't seem to hear the movement she made, and just said in a somewhat floating tone: "Okay...Okay, Lieutenant General Crane."

After speaking, Guina was like an inferior robot, walking out of Crane's staff office with jerky movements.

"Is your leg numb?"

When she walked out of the office, Guina heard a voice that she could hear from time to time, but was never familiar. She turned her head and said in a panicked salute, "Teacher!"

After saluting, she quickly said, "Teacher, I didn't notice you just now."

Skyler waved his hand. If a young man discovers the skills she learned from the Warring States, it actually seems that she is very stupid with the Warring States?

Of course, she won't comfort Guina. First, she's not good at it, and second... She won't admit that she uses the domineering skills that few people have mastered, just to watch her students." interview".

"I just came here, aren't you going to the archives? I'll take you there."

After Skyler finished speaking, Guina nodded, then looked at Skyler and waited for her teacher to lead the way. Skyler stood there for a few seconds, looking into the office, but the crane didn't pay attention at all. she.

So Skyler had to say embarrassedly: "You should take me there, I don't know where the archives are."

Although she has been in the Navy for more than 20 years, Skyler is still very unfamiliar with the headquarters building. Except for the offices of a few people, she knows nothing about the headquarters building.

If she was still in the boot camp, she might really know where the archives were. After all, she was doing paperwork for Kizaru at that time, but the headquarters building was also relocated.

Even if the location of the archives has not changed, she can't find it now. Her memory is not so good, especially for some things that she is not interested in, she forgets faster.

However, Skyler's reversal made Guina feel a lot more relaxed, nodded, and did not hurt her teacher, but silently began to lead the way.

Although Guina has never worked in the headquarters building, and has not even been there a few times, remembering the layout of the headquarters building is that every sea...is the necessary work that most navies should do.

On the way to the archives, Guina still asked somewhat, "Teacher, do you think I can become a qualified officer?"

Skyler looked at Guina, this little girl was in a dojo before, and the confidence she had acquired from Zoro had almost returned to her in the past few years.

And Guina's question...that's not even a question, Skyler shrugged and said, "So, what kind of officer do you think is a qualified officer?"

"I..."

Guina shook her head, and Skyler slowed, then said: "If you want to avoid failure, there is a

A good way to do it is to never do it.

But if you want to be successful, even if you want to be successful, just to be a qualified officer, you have to try, even if it fails. "

Hearing this, Guina just nodded slightly, everyone understands the truth, but when it comes to doing it, not everyone can be decisive.

Skyler couldn't comfort Guina anymore, because she didn't know how to be a qualified officer. After all, her deeds were actually unqualified.

But... Maybe it's negative and positive, Skyler feels that he has some good achievements inexplicably, and has also gained the trust and even admiration of some people.

But how did she share it with Guina? Tell her that as long as you fail enough times, you can succeed? Skyler thinks this is bullshit.

The two fell into silence again. After coming to the archives room, the navy on duty did not dare to slow down, and quickly helped Guina find her archives.

After getting the file, Guina obviously wanted to say something, but she refused to speak. The two walked towards He's office again, and Guina didn't stop until they came not far from He's office.

She looked at Skyler worriedly and said, "Teacher, I'm a little scared. What if... even if I try my best, but I fail in the end?"

"Effort? Effort is something everyone can do. No matter how lazy people are, they will use their time to struggle.

Maybe some people succeed with hard work, but you can't expect that, because there are not so many stages in this world, where everyone who works hard can show their success.

If you really expect success, hard work is not enough, you have to work hard to pursue everything you want, everyone can work hard, but not everyone dares to work hard.

If you dare, you will be one step closer, and, in this way, you will not have any regrets, because failure means death, and you have no time to regret failure. "

Skyler stopped in front of He's office, turned around and put his hand on Guina's shoulder, and said, "Of course, this may be too harsh, and you can also take it for granted that you are only twenty-two years old, with Take the time to let yourself be the person you want to be.

But no one will always be twenty-two, on the contrary, there will always be twenty-two people who have the same dream.

It's up to you to choose. After all, if you walk in now, you will no longer be under my control. In the future, you will represent Guina, your detachment, not my student or a member of the Zhanye detachment. "

Listening to Skyler's words, Guina looked sideways at the door of the crane's office, and for a moment, an extremely strong voice came from her mind.

The intense dizziness was even scarier than the first time she was on a boat when she was a child.

The open door was also constantly being pulled away at this time. The door that was only one step away seemed to be separated by mountains and seas, and it was impossible to cross it.

For a moment, Guina wanted to turn around and leave, because she didn't know if she was ready, or... there would be no day when she would be ready at all.

The bursts of dizziness caused Guina's face to turn white, her lips gradually lost their blood, and her hands and feet that quickly became cold began to tremble. She struggled and closed her eyes.

But at this moment, in her mind, she thought of the boy who had been outspoken all day.

‘If it was you, there shouldn’t be any hesitation, right? ’

In his mind, the boy raised his fist and set up a battle with him for the world's greatest swordsman.

'Sorry, Zoro, I want to be crowned the world's greatest swordsman for a few more years, so...I won't wait any longer. ’

The sword in her heart was full of power. Guina, who was originally like a hypoglycemic patient, now her body became straight again. The seed that was planted, after being suffocated a few times, still sprouted tenaciously. .

In the office, Crane frowned, looked out the door, looked at Guina and murmured: "These young people, why are you so worried, Ace, Yamato, and then you..."

At this time, in the headquarters building, many people also noticed the momentum in the bud. The yellow monkey, who woke up from his office chair, took off his sunshade mirror, rubbed his eyes, and then looked through the wall and looked at the staff officer. direction, said:

"Marshal of the Warring States Period? Are you so worried after retiring~"

But his brows were wrinkled, his hands rubbed his loose face, and he even patted twice, shook his head, and said, "No... what a terrible young man~"

"Teacher, I think I understand."

Outside the staff office, Guina nodded, took her report, and walked into Crane's office.

"Puff~"

On Kraigana Island, the scarred Zoro walked back to Mihawk, sat on the ground with one buttocks, tightened the abdominal roll on his waist, panted and said:

"When are you going to start teaching me? I've... defeated all the baboons!"

Mihawk crossed his legs and sat on the beach chair, surrounded by red wine and potato chips, holding a newspaper in his hand. After reading today's newspaper, Mihawk said:

"Well, almost, you seem to be ready to die."

"It doesn't matter, as long as... as long as it can become stronger."

Zoro nodded, and said with a curled abdomen again, but suddenly, he jumped up, looked at Mihawk in disbelief, and said, "What did you just say?!"

"You heard."

Mihawk raised the glass, and did not seem to have the idea of ​​repeating it a second time. The inconceivable expression on Zoro's face turned into ecstasy. Regardless of his injury, he reached out to Rameyhawk's hand and said at the same time:

"Come on! I can't wait!"

Mihawk raised his hand gently, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com dodged Sauron's claws, straightened his right leg on his left leg, and then kicked Sauron out, and then said: "Wait until you heal up."

"That's tomorrow?!"

Zoro climbed up from the ground carelessly, with the same smile on his face, and yelled at the castle in the distance: "Perona! Heal me!"

"Bastard! How many times have you said it! I'm not your servant, why do you order me?!"

Perona's frantic voice came from the castle, and then she carried a medicine box, her face full of anger, and floated towards Zoro.

Under Perona's sutures and bandages, he didn't use anesthesia, but Zoro had no pain, and the excitement made him forget what the pain was like.

He looked at Mihawk, then seemed to remember something, and asked, "Mihawk, is there any news? Luffy...they."

Mihawk put down the wine glass and glanced at the newspaper, which was full of boring and repetitive news such as the new Navy Marshal's appointment, the joint concert of Old Bones and No Girl, and shook his head and said, "No."
