Chapter 115 Vacation
Chapter 115 Vacation
In the following period, Moko did not go out for long periods of time except for her regular rest days. She usually either stayed at the Marine Headquarters to work and rest, or went to Fishman Island to see Shirahoshi or to deal with Moko's affairs. Her schedule was quite tight.
Moko would call home every few days to check on her three children. Hearing them express their longing in their innocent and adorable voices, Moko's heart would soften, and she would wish she could fly back to Mount Golbor to hug them.
Moko thought this way and did just that. Counting the time, it had indeed been a long time since she had gone back. When she asked Sengoku for leave, he agreed without saying a word and did not ask for any reason. Just like Garp said when she first came in, he would never restrict Moko's vacation. This was something that Moko was particularly satisfied with.
If it weren't for letting go appropriately and allowing the three children to learn independence, Moko would definitely go back every month. After all, with Mihua and Tuanzi around, there's no need to worry about wasting too much time due to the distance. However, in order for the three children to become stronger, Moko basically only goes back during the Lunar New Year or some special occasions. If she misses it due to other things, she will make up for it later.
Special days are special because they leave behind many special and beautiful memories. Perhaps family members won't all be by your side on these special days, but at least, Momo hopes that when her three children grow up, they will remember her in their childhood memories whenever these special days come around.
She couldn't be there for her three children through their entire lives, but her love would always be with them. If, in the future, the whole world denies the existence of her three children, then the love she left behind would be the best proof to refute these ridiculous claims.
The vacation won't start immediately; Moko will probably have to stay at Marine Headquarters for another week. This week, Moko has decided to finish dealing with the urgent documents first, and then some routine ones. As for Borsalino and Kuzan, Moko can only shrug and say that expecting those two clowns to come to work is like hoping for a shower of rainbow candy.
(Borsalino & Kuzan: ╭?(  ̄ ▽ ̄)╭? Hehe)
For example, right now, Moko, who has just finished processing the last part of the documents, is lying on a recliner, calmly drinking black tea, flipping through a book that interests her with her other hand. Mihua is wrapped in a blanket and sleeping soundly in Moko's arms. Anyone who sees this scene can't help but sigh that life is peaceful and serene.
However, while things were peaceful inside the room, things were not so peaceful outside. The special effects flying all over the sky and the two people darting back and forth in the air were obviously not peaceful at all. Aesop, on the other hand, was used to this scene. After all, the two generals would have to fight every two or three days.
At first, Aesop would panic and get anxious when he saw the two generals fighting, but after seeing it more often, and seeing Moko's unhurried attitude, Aesop forced himself to pretend he didn't see it. Not everyone dared to watch the show between the two generals, and Aesop wanted to live for a couple more years.
Just because Aesop didn't dare to watch didn't mean others wouldn't. Moko just thought the two of them were having a tantrum. Anyway, the two of them knew their own strength, so Moko didn't care. Compared to this playful fight, it was better to read a book. The contents of the book were much more interesting than these two clowns.
Of course, there were also those who were interested in the two fighting. For example, Ella, who was currently clinging to the window railing with her eyes sparkling as she watched the two show off their special effects, was extremely excited. She was waving her chubby paws, seemingly cheering for someone. Moko was even considering making a cheerleading ball for Ella next time, which instantly heightened the atmosphere.
Borsalino and Kuzan were fighting with great enthusiasm. As for why they were fighting here instead of in the training room, it was because Sengoku had posted a notice outside the newly rebuilt training room prohibiting Borsalino and Kuzan from entering. Now, the two of them had to find a place to fight on their own, so they simply started fighting in the main square outside.
Despite the fight, the two were actually quite restrained and not completely oblivious to their surroundings. You have to understand, if these two were to fight seriously, the office building would be totaled. Sakazuki, standing by the window, saw that the two weren't going too far, so he didn't interfere. He glanced at them and then went back to his desk to continue working. These two had been causing trouble for quite some time. Let them fight, as long as they don't embarrass the Navy outside.
As for the other naval personnel who were unaware of the situation, they were filled with admiration when they saw the two admirals fighting. They thought it was a great opportunity for them to observe and learn from the admirals' personal combat skills.
"As expected of a general, starting combat training so early is truly admirable."
"Admirals Kizaru and Aokiji are already so powerful, yet they are still working hard to improve themselves. It's truly inspiring. I want to learn from these two admirals."
"Mmm, me too..." xN
The two's tantrum was so brilliantly misunderstood as daily combat sparring, which in turn boosted the training enthusiasm of many naval personnel. Sengoku simply stopped caring, thinking that free incentive templates were a good use of, and it also saved the finances some money. Hmm, he's really a clever little guy (σ°?°)σ..
“I’ll start my vacation tomorrow, so Aesop can rest a bit more tomorrow and doesn’t need to come over so early.” Moko closed her book and looked at Aesop.
"Yes, Miss Moko, that..."
Aesop seemed to want to say something more, but before he could finish, two figures who had been fighting fiercely outside suddenly appeared in the office, instantly drawing Moko's attention away. Borsalino and Kuzan looked at Moko with a strange hint of resentment, as if Moko had abandoned them.
After all, no matter how much work Moke handled before returning, as long as Moke wasn't there, new work would inevitably appear on their desks every day. Once they got used to being lazy, they really wouldn't want to handle any work anymore.
Without them saying a word, Mo knew what they were thinking. Her eyes showed helplessness. "I've taken care of the work for the past few days. As for any new work that comes up, you two can handle as much as you can. As for the non-urgent work, wait for me to come back and handle it. Don't make things difficult for the deputy general who handles your documents, understand?"
Mokoko didn't want to see a bunch of lieutenants standing at the door like they were returning from a famine when she came back next time; their eyes made her feel guilty.
"Okay, Miss."
"Okay, Miss Moko."
Seeing their nonchalant and casual manner, Mo Ke frowned and gave them another instruction.
"The necessary work must be done every day. You absolutely cannot pretend to be asleep to avoid it. Urgent documents are definitely very important."
"Oh, I understand, Miss Moko. Don't worry, I'll handle it well."
"Don't worry, young lady, I'm still very responsible and attentive."
Seemingly worried that Moko would really get angry, the two of them finally made a proper and earnest promise this time. Moko pursed her lips and raised her eyebrows slightly. Why didn't she believe it? But there was nothing she could do. Anyway, Sakazuki was watching over them, so nothing serious should happen, right? Probably?
"By the way, was something Aesop trying to say just now?"
Moko remembered that Aesop had hesitated to speak, so she turned to look at him. Borsalino and Kuzan also looked over. Being stared at by the three of them, especially with Borsalino and Kuzan's death stares, Aesop hurriedly waved his hands in a panic.
"It's nothing, it's nothing. Have a nice holiday, Miss Moko!"
It was clearly not what she wanted to say, but seeing that Aesop didn't intend to continue, Moko didn't force him and gently patted Aesop's head.
"Yes, thank you, Aesop. Have a great holiday!"
Feeling the touch on his head, Aesop froze, his face flushed with excitement, and he stammered, "Yes, yes! Miss Moko!"
Moko smiled gently. Seeing that it was almost time, Moko picked up the soft rice flower. Ella flapped her wings and climbed onto Moko's shoulder. She raised her chubby paws and waved at Aesop, as if saying goodbye.
"Young lady, let this old man escort you out~" Borsalino said, picking up Moko's luggage first.
“Oh dear, let me see Miss Moko out.” Kuzan also reached out and grabbed the other side of the suitcase, neither giving way to Borsalino.
"Huh!?" x2
The two glared at each other fiercely again, their eyes blazing with anger, and they secretly pulled their luggage towards themselves. It looked like they were about to fight again when Moko calmly took the suitcase from their hands, a half-smile on her face.
"General Borsalino, General Kuzan~"
Despite the voice carrying a smile, Borsalino and Kuzan inexplicably shuddered. The stiff turn of their heads seemed strangely familiar, and the dangerous aura startled them so much that they quickly let go.
Moko looked at the slightly deformed suitcase handle, her forehead throbbing. This was a suitcase she had used for a long time, and she really liked it.
Like the calm before a storm, Borsalino and Kuzan saw the deformed suitcase handles they had squeezed and swallowed nervously.
"The January snacks are all gone."
"Ugh!!! No way~ Σ(っ °Д °;)っ" x2
"No discussion!" Moko angrily turned her head away, ignoring the two of them.
"Moko-chan! We're here!"
Before Borsalino and Kuzan could plead for mercy, Tina's voice came from outside the door. Tina suddenly pushed the door open, followed by Ain and Smoker as usual. When they found Borsalino and Kuzan in the room, Tina quickly stopped. The three of them straightened up and respectfully saluted Borsalino and Kuzan.
Borsalino and Kuzan were still heartbroken that their January snacks were gone. They waved casually and then huddled in their usual seats, looking dejected. Moko ignored the two kids and pulled her suitcase over to Tina.
"let's go."
"Ok!"
Tina took the suitcase from Moko and handed it to Smoker. Smoker didn't say anything, calmly took the suitcase, and followed the three girls toward the dock.
