Planck's memorial service was held the next day.
The entire central fountain square was once again filled with people.
The scene was almost the same as the grand wedding a few days ago.
But judging from what he did twice, it seems like a lifetime ago.
The wedding and funeral only lasted two days.
I'm afraid no one thought that Planck, who once traveled all over the world, would die like this.
Death is almost child's play.
But, this is the cruelty of reality.
The entire memorial service was unusually quiet. No one spoke. Only Chen Senran stood on the high platform and softly told the whole process of Planck's accident.
But the content is irrelevant.
What matters is the result, and the result is that Planck is dead.
And all those who supported Planck disappeared inexplicably.
Even if someone noticed that something was wrong, when they saw the former Gangplank's loyal dogleg, the supreme leader of the entire merchant community, Woody, and Gangplank's widow Miss Fortune, standing quietly next to Chen Senran, they would also
He closed his mouth very wisely.
The overall situation has been decided.
Even if this overall situation is full of intrigues, anyone with a bit of political sense can smell the strong smell of conspiracy in it.
But this is no longer a situation that ordinary people can reverse.
Faced with a reality that they cannot resist, ordinary people can only choose to accept it.
When Chen Senran finished describing Planck's long and dazzling life, Miss Fortune, Planck's new wife and widow, naturally stepped forward and began to tell her pain.
She only said one sentence and started crying.
Her acting skills are good, or in other words, she is really sad.
Although Planck did not die, he became a ghost, and from now on he can only be separated from the sea and the sky.
Maybe she thought about her sadness, and Miss Fortune cried more and more painfully.
That kind of pain made some people present who really loved Planck feel sad. At the same time, it also made some skeptical conspiracy theorists wonder whether they were overthinking.
Chen Senran was very satisfied with Miss Fortune's performance, even though it had nothing to do with the overall situation.
However, Miss Fortune has always been a stubborn woman, and if she really decided to fight back, he would still have some headaches.
Things became easier after that. After a night of strong winds, Master Woody, the former Gangplank dogleg, naturally surrendered to Chen Senran.
He carried on the fine tradition he had when he was Planck's dog-legger. After a routine mourning of his dead old master, he began to flatter Chen Senran desperately.
To praise Chen Senran as a rare and unparalleled person in the sky and below, I almost had to kneel down and lick Chen Senran's shoes.
At the end, not only the people below couldn't bear to listen.
Even Chen Senran himself has a red face.
He had to cough a few times before finally interrupting Woody's continued rant.
Finally, of course, it was the justifiable coronation ceremony.
Chen Senran announced the results of the temporary meeting of the Military Committee yesterday. He will temporarily serve as the chairman of the committee and command the entire Blue Flame Island.
No one has or dares to have any objections to this so-called temporary resolution and the temporary appointment of an acting deputy.
Because looking at the entire Blue Flame Island, after Plank's death, only Chen Senran has the most prestige and the most strength to hold this position.
After a simple debriefing ceremony, everyone dispersed.
After all, Planck's body had been destroyed, and people could not find the body for a more complicated burial ceremony at sea.
So we can only hang white shells at the door of every house to commemorate the man who was once the best pirate in Bilgewater and almost became the king of the entire Endless Sea.
————————————————————————
After the final face-saving work was completed, Chen Senran was not in a hurry to go back to the liquor and gunpowder to celebrate with his friends.
Because there are too many things waiting for him.
Bilgewater has so many things going on right now, it can be said that everything is waiting to be done.
The first is the institutional aspect. Chen Senran feels that the original military committee system is still not centralized enough and too scattered.
He decided to take centralization to the extreme. He wanted to use the model of a military government, which was to imitate the current system of Noxus.
Although it will definitely arouse some resistance, Chen Senran's reputation accumulated in many battles and his recent achievements in saving Bilgewater from fire and water can definitely suppress most of the opposition.
Moreover, heavy codes are used in troubled times. For this reason, he believed that even Bilgewater officials with some brains would not be able to clearly see the current situation. Nowadays, Bilgewater can be said to be extremely empty. Although it repelled a parliamentary attack, it was short-lived.
This period of time is a period of power vacuum.
If the previous free and undisciplined atmosphere is allowed to continue, then the fall of Blue Flame Island will be a matter of time.
The second thing, of course, is to rebuild the navy.
Chen Senran had previously designed to get rid of the pirate coalition and the entire Sea King Trident. Although it paved the way for him to ascend to the highest position now, it also wiped out all the maritime forces in the entire Endless Sea.
But in the final analysis, you will injure the enemy a thousand times and injure yourself eight hundred.
Although he is now reluctantly relying on the Netherworld Unicorn, he is standing on the line of defense against the two battle warriors on the sea, the little murloc Fizz and the deep sea titan Nautilus.
But the Netherworld Unicorns were not his direct troops after all, and judging from this incident, Nautilus was not wholeheartedly devoted to him.
These are all hidden worries, so building your own navy is a top priority.
Then there was a series of power vacuums released from Planck's direct descendants after they were eliminated.
He needs to give up part of the benefits to those who deserve them, and then reasonably distribute the remaining benefits to his own people.
Coupled with some miscellaneous things, even Chen Senran, who has always been extremely energetic, was troubled.
It wasn't until the sky turned dark that Chen Senran had time to breathe a sigh of relief.
After sending away his subordinates, Chen Senran sat alone in the dull conference room.
The magic crystal lamp has been turned off, and the whole room is dark.
It revealed a sense of suppressed suffocation.
Chen Senran knew that everything was not over.
But it has just begun.
Parliament will never give up.
The last failure will make them more aware of Bilgewater's current strength.
If you can't defeat the opponent in the next head-to-head confrontation.
Then, everything you have now will be in vain.
This is invisible pressure.
But if you can't even withstand such pressure, there is no need to return to that continent.
Not to mention, go see...that person again.
That figure will eventually be awakened from the depths of memory.
So many years have passed, how are you now? (To be continued...)
