Just as the two of them were thinking this, Kaz's ears suddenly moved and he looked out of the window and frowned. "Is there a sound?"
"Round?" Wilbur was stunned. His ears moved as if he was listening for something.
Rumble…
Faintly, he could hear some strange sounds, like the sound of artillery and gunfire, and it seemed to be accompanied by some human voices.
"Vice-Admiral! Vice-Admiral!"
Suddenly, the door was pushed open by a colonel. The colonel saluted and said loudly, "Vice-Admiral Kaz, Vice-Admiral Wilbur, an island has been found ahead. There seems to be the sound of fighting on the island!"
"Island? Where?" Wilbur asked.
"It seems to be the Port of Matruh in the Kingdom of Matruh," the Marine Captain said.
"Matruh…" Wilbur thought for a while and said, "Are we in the range of our own power?"
They knew that the Matruh Kingdom was a member of the New World and its power was within the World Government.
The main reason is that the Joining Country is within the World Government's sphere of influence. If it's not a Joining Country, it's definitely not. If it becomes a Joining Country, it will definitely be called "Schrödinger's sphere of influence".
"Guns? Pirates?" Wilbur continued to ask.
The Marine Captain shook his head. "I didn't see the pirate ship, I just saw the fire and I don't know what happened."
"Internal conflict? We don't seem to be able to care about this kind of thing." Wilbur thought for a while and said: "If it's not a pirate, everything else is just their internal affairs and we can't do it."
Marines can't manage the internal affairs of the participating countries, not even the World Government can, unless the participating countries take the initiative to ask for help.
"Rawr …"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Den Den Mushi on the table rang.
Wilbur frowned and picked up the microphone. Before he could finish, Den Den Mushi rang: "I have caught the signal! I have caught the signal! Help! Help! This is the Port of Matruh, I am the commander of the Port of Matruh. The civilians here are crazy, come and help suppress them!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Den Den Mushi suddenly let out a scream and then hung up.
"Civilian riot?" Kaz's first reaction when he heard the content was to refuse.
Civilians or whatever is inside the Kingdom, that's their thing, not the evil that Marines have to face. And after coming into contact with Mr. Kuro's mind, he doesn't think that a civilian riot is evil. Maybe that Kingdom forced it too hard.
Wilbur looked at Kaz. "No matter what, let's go and take a look. The signatories have found a signal to ask for help. We can't sit back and do nothing. Otherwise, Mr. Kuro will be in a difficult position, especially at this juncture."
He had more to consider than Cass. Now that Mr. Kuro is going to be promoted to general, if any accident or complaint happens at this juncture, it will affect Mr. Kuro's reputation. As Mr. Kuro's subordinates, their superiors will have to take the blame for what they have done. It's not their place to find trouble for Mr. Kuro at this juncture.
No matter what, he had to take a look.
Kaz nodded. "You've got a point. Battleship turn and head for Port Matruh. See what happens."
"Yes!"
The colonel saluted again and ran out to give orders.
The two of them naturally have the power of a Vice-Admiral. Even for ordinary Vice-Admiral, the promotion of merits and strength not only represents that they are Marine elites, but also that they have a high position.
In Dressrosa and Corfu, the two of them are like local tyrants. As base chiefs, they also have Mr. Kuro's power in Pegasus Island and Sabaody Archipelago. It's just that their personalities are not like Mr. Kuro's. Mr. Kuro can do that, but they don't want to. They are fighting for a noble cause of justice. They are executors, not thinkers like Mr. Kuro.
"Speaking of which, if I use 'Spider' as a metaphor…"
Wilbur smiled and said, "Mr. Kuro is the 'spider's' brain, and we are the 'spider's' feet. When the brain thinks, the feet do as it is told. We just have to do it. The spider's feet can be replaced by others, but nothing can be done without the spider's brain."
Kaz was stunned and said in surprise, "What you said makes a lot of sense. It's the truth! Wilbur, it's really good to have you as my colleague! Yes, for Mr. Kuro's career, we can be a 'foot'. As long as the brain is there, nothing is a problem. If it's a 'foot', anyone can replace it! I have a less mature idea now, let's perfect it later!"
"Please go ahead." Wilbur listened.
"We might as well establish another internal organization under the name of 'Spider' and use it as a secret organization with Mr. Kuro as the core. This is because those beliefs are actually from Mr. Kuro. Although we are practicing this belief now, the people below will always make mistakes. We can clean them up and if any of us makes mistakes, others can also kill them and find new 'feet' to replace them!"
Kaz became more and more excited as he spoke. "Mr. Kuro is the brain. As the feet of the spider, we just have to serve Mr. Kuro well!"
**TIP**
Wilbur slapped the table. "Your proposal is good, very good! This solves our internal problems that can't be corrected. For example, that Joshua, he is something we didn't expect. It's not that he is bad, he is not out of our scope, but once someone is out of this scope, we can also cover with this 'Spider' organization and not let the World Government know for the time being!"
They are no longer the ignorant people who made wild guesses about Mr. Kuro's behavior. They at least have a "Seven Steps Countermeasure" and know who the real enemy is, so they have to take countermeasures.
"To be honest, David's actions are no longer restrained. Once the clues are discovered, it will be very bad. Our existence is to prevent this clue from being discovered by the World Government, which will buy enough time for Mr. Kuro and David's actions. We need an internal system of our own, and this organization can not entrap Marines, Pirates, Kingdom Army, or even the Revolutionary Army, even the Underground World!"
Wilbur said loudly: "We can use this organization to spread our thoughts and protect our 'brain'! Our spider organization can definitely shine!"
Cass nodded vigorously. "Chloe should also agree to this. We want to have a number, so Crowe, who has been by Mr. Kuro's side, will be the No. 1!"
