Chapter 436 of the text volume: The pinnacle of swordsmanship, the supreme realm! "Not yet."

He picked up the tea cup and took a sip, and said, "I am responsible for this matter. In the past few months, I have urged my superiors on average once a week, and the answer I received has never changed. It is nothing more than '

Excuses such as "insufficient funds and still raising funds" are the same this time."

War is cruel after all. In one battle, the Pirate Alliance's entire army was wiped out. Needless to say, the navy also paid a heavy price.

The number of casualties alone reached 13,000, and the number of seriously wounded exceeded 30,000. Such a huge number naturally required a huge pension.

However, in order to prepare for this war, the headquarters used up almost all the navy's savings. Coupled with the various finishing tasks after the war, the department was really stretched thin and had no way to pay back the money. It could only ask for special funds from its superiors.

This is a matter of course, and this amount of money is nothing to the world government.

As a result, almost four months have passed, but the money has not yet been allocated. Just as He said, every time the headquarters urges it, the world government uses various excuses to delay it.

This is really unacceptable.

"No need to rush, I estimate that the dial will be dialed soon." Warring States suddenly said.

"What?" Everyone around looked at him in surprise.

"Didn't I say before that the superiors have always had a vague attitude towards the resignation I submitted?"

Warring States said calmly, "But it is not a problem if it continues to be vague. A specific approval should be given this month. At that time, there is a high probability that close associates will be transferred from the World Government to take over the position of marshal. By then, the pension will naturally be

distributed."

"What do you mean?" The flying squirrel was surprised.

"Yes, pension and resignation are basically the same thing."

He sneered and said, "When the new officer takes office, the pension will naturally be approved. This will not only improve the new marshal's prestige among the grassroots marines, but also calm the resentment of the Warring States Period for being transferred away. It is said that killing two birds with one stone, the World Government will not

No, I am very good at this kind of trick of playing with people's hearts."

"Bunch of bastards!"

Lieutenant General Dauberman, who had a hot temper, slammed his fist on the table, "How many family members of sailors are waiting for this money to be used now? So many soldiers are going through life and death, for what reason! To protect these people who are full of calculations.

A fat pig?! Do the superiors still regard the navy as a human being?"

"When did they treat the navy like a human being?"

A faint voice suddenly sounded at this moment:

"In other words, except for those high-ranking world nobles, how can they care whether the rest of the people are dead or alive?"

Before he finished speaking, the entire conference room was already silent.

The reason is very simple, because this voice is so familiar and slightly unfamiliar because they haven't heard it for a long time. Everyone turned their heads in the direction of the door in surprise.

In the morning light, at some point, a slender figure wearing a white cloak of justice appeared there.

"Mr. Nosha!"

"General Nuoxia!"

Many people shouted, and the old subordinates such as Flying Squirrel Ghost Spider stood up subconsciously in excitement.

Shiliu, who had been silent with a cigar in his mouth, also raised his head and grinned - since fighting in the First World War, he had taken the initiative to transfer to the Navy, and currently holds the position of Lieutenant General of the headquarters.

"Everyone, please sit down. We haven't seen each other for a few months, so it won't be a big deal."

Nuo Xia waved his hand, pulled out the chair in front of the empty seat and sat down.

This seat is right next to Sengoku. It has been empty for several months and has been specially reserved for him.

"Noxia, you..."

Warring States looked at Nuo Xia, who was sitting next to him, and suddenly his eyes widened as if he noticed something.

"Huh?"

Garp on the side also let out a light sigh, while Akainu, Aokiji, Kizaru and others looked at each other subconsciously, with expressions of some surprise and uncertainty.

They are all the top strong men in the world. At this moment, they can vaguely notice that there is something different about Nuo Xia, whom they have not seen for several months.

That feeling is very subtle.

If Nuo Xia had stood in front of him and not deliberately restrained his aura, they would have clearly felt a terrifying coercion from each other.

That was proof that he belonged to a peak powerhouse. Although he was stronger than himself, he was still roughly at the same level.

And now...

Nuo Xia obviously didn't restrain his aura, but standing there, he seemed to be no different from ordinary people, without any pressure. Only by concentrating all his mental power could he vaguely feel the slightest hint of danger.

"Um."

Nuo Xia smiled and nodded slightly, acknowledging the speculations of Warring States and others.

He did break through again.

Moreover, it is an all-round breakthrough and an all-round improvement!

Four months ago, after the battle with Whitebeard, Nuo Xia once again felt the loosening of bottlenecks, especially in the kendo, where he vaguely touched a new world.

He did not dare to delay and immediately entered a state of seclusion and self-cultivation.

After several months of practice, he successively broke through the final bottleneck of Armed Color Haki, Wisdom Color Haki and Swordsmanship.

at the same time.

As the news spread and prestige reached its peak, Nuo Xia's points also skyrocketed. After a few months, they had accumulated over 30 million points.

This is undoubtedly an astronomical figure, which makes Nuo Xia finally able to use the additional function to upgrade all his basic measurements attributes.

Now, his property panel has changed into this:

[Name: Romanov Nosha]

[Age: 28 years old]

【Strength: 41】

[Agility: 41]

【Endurance: 48】

[Intelligence: 16]

【Charm:24】

[Current points: 20560]

[Regular skills: natural thunder fruit, combat fighting, double-sword style swordsmanship, six styles, gun shooting, self-discipline, armed color Haki, knowledge color Haki, painting, fishing, swimming...]

[Innate skills: Overlord color and domineering, petrified eyes, indestructible diamond, listening to the voice of all things, toothy smile, craftsman spirit, wind barrier, rough skin and thick flesh, steel head, rebirth of severed limbs, amphibious breathing]

[Currently equipped: Guardian Angel, Light Boots, Armor of Thorns]

…

The most luxurious data panel.

The all-round improvement of various attributes, the master-level swordsmanship and the two-color domineering force have brought Nuo Xia's combat power to an unparalleled level!

If he had another battle with Whitebeard at this time, Nuo Xia would be confident that there would be no need to fight for nearly ten hours like Ding Shang.

——Even if it is conservatively estimated, it will only take a few dozen minutes at most, and Whitebeard will be completely defeated!

"You guy..."

Hearing Nuo Xia's frank admission, Zhan Guo and others looked at each other, feeling shocked in their hearts.

In their eyes, Nuo Xia's strength is already the strongest in the history of the navy, surpassing themselves and others, and can be called a ceiling-level existence in the world.

Under such circumstances, he can actually break through again... Then how strong is his current strength?

"Ah, what an exaggeration..." Qingzhi couldn't help but smacked his lips, "I feel like now, let alone a one-on-one fight, even if Sakaski and I join forces, we may not be able to compete... In this world, really

Is there anyone else who can be your opponent?"

The corner of Akainu's mouth twitched slightly. You can compare yourself to yourself. Why do you have to involve me?

"Of course."

Nuo Xia's answer was beyond everyone's expectations. He said calmly, "To be honest, it was this breakthrough that gave me the confidence to completely defeat her. If I had fought against her a few months ago, I would have won."

It’s still unclear whether we will be negative.”

Of course?

Except for Taotu whose expression didn't change and who had obviously known the inside story for a long time, everyone else was stunned and didn't quite understand what Nuo Xia meant.

This means……

How can it be?

Even the strongest man in the world, Whitebeard, was defeated by Nuo Xia. Looking at the world, who else is qualified to make Nuo Xia say such a thing?

Warring States suddenly seemed to realize something and frowned slightly:

"Do you mean...the people above?"
To be continued...
