I summon the shadow army in Pirates.

What is the Navy?

The Navy is an organization directly affiliated with the World Government and performs the work of maintaining law and order in the world's oceans in the name of "absolute justice."

Its headquarters is located on Marinevando, an island in the Great Channel, and is considered a symbol of peace in the "Great Age of Pirates."

at this time.

Great Waterway, Navy Headquarters.

Several huge white flags were fluttering in the wind, with seagulls symbolizing peace printed on them, and a spanner across the middle.

The crescent-shaped port below.

Large warships dock here one after another. These warships usually patrol the waters of the Great Channel and round up pirates when they encounter them.

This happens every day, over and over again.

There is no special reason for this, it is just because this is the duty of the Navy Headquarters, and evil needs to be driven out in the name of "absolute justice."

And among these many warships.

A warship coming from Rogge Town in the East China Sea was parked quietly on the edge.

After Coles reunited with Major Kahn, a rare smile appeared on his face.

When the recruit period ended before, he didn't have time to see off the major, but today they finally met again.

This rarely made him happy.

"Instructor Kahn, long time no see, have you been promoted to colonel of the headquarters?" A slender girl with short hair and red-rimmed glasses stepped off the warship from Rogge Town.

Kahn did not forget the girl's name, and a smile spread across his lips.

"Dasi Qi, long time no see."

Later, Kahn explained:

"During this period, your military ranks have been promoted, and I will not be idle here at the headquarters. I captured two big pirates during the previous mission, so my military rank has been promoted to colonel at the headquarters. .”

Coles didn't have much surprise. Where did Major Kahn's strength lie?

As long as there is an opportunity, it is normal for pirates to seize promotion.

"Major Kahn!"

At this moment, another navy man wearing a navy coat stepped off the warship.

Kahn looked at this former old subordinate and corrected him: "Long time no see, Maude, you should call me colonel now."

"Yes, Colonel Kahn."

Maud immediately saluted.

No other sailors got off the ship. Only Coles, Dusky and Maude came from the Rogue Town Naval Base.

Both Dusky and Mod were recommended by Smoker to participate in the elite training camp.

Elite training camp!

This is where the Navy Headquarters concentrates teaching resources to cultivate the backbone of the Navy.

As long as you can enter the elite training camp, you will become a powerful navy after you come out. For ordinary navy, its appeal is very huge.

Each department of the Navy has quotas for recommendation.

However, a recommendation is a recommendation, and whether you can successfully enter the elite training camp is another matter.

Because the Navy wants to cultivate elites, the number of people in the training camp is limited. Only the Navy who pass the preliminary assessment can eventually enter the elite training camp.

After all, there are very few naval officers like Coles who directly book places in elite training camps.

If I want to use the words of my previous life.

That's a walk-on!

After Kahn welcomed the three Coles, he began to lead them away from the port.

"Okay, I'll take you to familiarize yourself with the place where you can rest and temporarily live. Follow me closely and be careful not to get lost."

……

At Marlin Vandeau.

The tallest building.

That is the tower of the Navy Headquarters!

It was an extremely tall classical tower. The lower part was a city wall made of gray-black marble, with the two characters "Navy" printed on the surface.

The upper part is composed of floors one after another. The eaves are exquisitely shaped and gathered upwards in an orderly proportion, full of simple charm.

If someone could look down from the top floor of the Navy Tower, they would see that Malevando actually looks like a crescent moon.

In Kahn less...

Now led by Colonel Kahn, the three marines from Rogge Town began to cross the huge square and arrived at the residential area with many buildings.

In addition to combat facilities on this island.

There are also many residential facilities. The residents on the island are the families of the navy.

From time to time there are sailors wearing white navy uniforms walking here, so the four of them don't show anything special here.

all the way.

Coles' dress and appearance have attracted some people's attention and discussion.

"Hey, look at that young marine, he's still wearing a navy coat at such a young age?"

"It's true. Judging from his age, he should be only eighteen or nineteen years old. Is he now an officer above the warrant officer level?"

"That's not the navy of our headquarters. This time period is the time when the elite training camp is held. There are many navy from all over the world. The positions there are three levels worse than those of our headquarters. If it were here, I guess this young man would be just The standard of a corporal in this department.”

"Well, I think it's about the same. At this age, my son's military rank is only a sergeant in the navy headquarters. However, it's a pity that my son didn't inherit all my handsomeness, otherwise he could be compared with this boy's handsome face."

Although it has gone far.

But Coles still heard the conversations of those people with his keen hearing.

The last person who spoke was an uncle in his fifties. Although his appearance was old, he was still somewhat handsome. He might have been extraordinary in appearance when he was young.

After walking through several streets.

Kahn brought the three Coles to a terraced dormitory building with many vacant rooms that had been packed away.

"You will rest in the room here. I have arranged the room and procedures for you. There is a canteen over there. Anyone in the navy can eat for free."

"Okay, it's a bit late. I have some things to do and I have to go on duty first. My residence is in the building not far away. If you need anything, you can come to me and get some rest early."

After a careful explanation, Kahn left the dormitory building.

Watching Kahn leave, the three Coles were a little confused.

Why does Major Kahn seem reluctant to contact them for a long time?

Could it be because this is the Navy Headquarters?

Is the discipline strict?

After looking at each other.

Maude suggested: "It's only five o'clock now, why don't we go over to eat first?"

"Walk."

Coles immediately realized that if you don’t take this free meal, you won’t get it.

……

At this time, because there were still five days left before the preliminary assessment of the elite training camp, the recommended marines were a little relaxed.

After dinner, most people began to rest in their rooms.

Coles did not fall asleep.

In addition to only needing three hours of sleep a day, he also couldn't sleep due to stress.

This is the legendary Navy Headquarters!

Although he did not see the three most powerful generals in the Navy Headquarters, Coles still felt a huge invisible pressure.

His previous strength in the East China Sea was indeed good, but this is a great waterway.

As one of the three major forces in the Great Waterway, there are many experts here at the Navy's headquarters, and there are even more people who know the Six Styles of the Navy and Haki.

After leaving [Lanlos] and the twelve [Shadow Knights] with their families, Coles' overall strength dropped a lot.

Except for the shadow fruit.

Coles' top-notch precision swordsmanship is not worth mentioning in the Navy Headquarters.

It seems that we must seize every moment to practice and work hard to improve.

……

late at night.

The night was dark.

There are only a few stars outside.

This dormitory building in a row building has many rooms, and the people living in them are candidates recommended by various maritime branches to participate in the elite training camp.

There are still five days left before the preliminary assessment, so there is still plenty of time.

Therefore, most of the navy who came to participate in the preliminary assessment of the elite training camp have already relaxed their vigilance and fallen asleep.

In Coles' room.

He is practicing meditation with his eyes closed, hoping that he can break through the current bottleneck of precision swordsmanship and step into the next stage of cutting iron.

It was dark all around.

There was no movement at all, but Coles could sense the sound of falling dust.

This is because with the increase in the shadow, his sensitivity has increased tremendously.

suddenly.

Coles exited his meditative state and looked out the window at the figure that suddenly appeared.

It was a middle-aged man with an average appearance, wearing a navy uniform and a navy coat on his back. At this time, he was looking at Coles in the room through the window.

After seeing Coles' reaction, the middle-aged man used a pen to write down the score on the report board in his hand, and then quietly disappeared from the place.

It's one of the six naval styles of shaving!

Coles' eyes narrowed. He had learned this skill before coming, so he discovered how the middle-aged officer suddenly appeared and disappeared.

Won’t the preliminary assessment start in five days, or is this a secret assessment?

ten minutes later.

The plain-looking middle-aged officer finished the assessment and turned around to leave the dormitory building.

On the report board in his hand, he rated everyone's vigilance response, with the lowest being 1 point and the highest being 10 points.

Among them, most of them are below 6 points, and those who can reach 6 points or above are all navies with very good vigilance and reaction skills.

Although Coles directly booked a place in the elite training camp, the assessment officer still recorded his score on the report board.

The number recorded after Charlotte Cole's name is: 10!
