I summon the shadow army in Pirates.

Under the leadership of Major Kahn, the rescued naval recruits were brought back to the naval base.

The new recruits' teaching was originally going to start today, but because of the incident with the William Pirates, Kahn temporarily gave the new recruits a day off to recover their mental state, and formal teaching and training would begin tomorrow.

In the recruits' dormitory.

There was silence.

Every navy recruit is thinking about his own things, and so is Coles.

The knife that William slashed at him before was so fast that he had no time to dodge.

If it weren't for Major Kahn, he would be a cold corpse now.

too weak!

Still too weak!

Even with devil fruit powers.

But without proficiency and good development, once you encounter a powerful pirate like William, it is almost impossible to win.

Become stronger!

You must become stronger quickly!

Coles kept warning himself in his heart.

William's last words before leaving clearly targeted him. If he didn't improve his strength quickly, he might really die next time he met him.

After all, who can guarantee that Major Kahn will always be by his side?

In this chaotic era of great pirates, the best way to protect yourself is to become stronger!

Coles was lying on the upper bunk of the dormitory, with his hands behind his head, looking at the wall distractedly, thinking about how to become stronger.

After summoning the shadow soldier Adun, he felt that the number of shadows he could summon had reached saturation.

He can only summon up to ten shadow soldiers now. If he wants to increase the number of shadow soldiers he can summon, he should need to increase his proficiency in the shadow fruit...

Except for the shadow fruit.

There should also be room for development of one's own strength, such as physical skills, swordsmanship, etc.

……

the next day.

Fifty-eight navy recruits were gathered together in a white-painted classroom.

Although only twenty people, including Coles, passed the review of the Navy Recruitment Office this month, the Rogue Town Naval Base recruits new recruits every month.

However, due to problems such as the number of people and time, the Rogge Town Naval Base unified teaching in batches of three months, so Kahn needed to teach fifty-eight sailors this time.

Without letting everyone wait for long, Kahn, wearing a navy coat, walked into the classroom. After glancing at everyone, he said:

"Some of you already know me, but some of you don't know me yet, so let me introduce myself first. I am Lieutenant Commander Kahn from Rogge Town, and I will also be your instructor during the recruit training period.

During the three-month recruitment period, you all need to obey my command, do you understand? "

"understand!"

Some of the recruits had not yet gotten over the incident of being kidnapped yesterday, so their answers were a bit confusing.

In this regard, Kahn didn't say anything, he just opened a roll call list and started to call the recruits.

"Dasi Qi."

"Here." A girl with short hair and glasses stood up and responded.

Dasqi did not encounter yesterday's kidnapping incident because she did not find her glasses when she got up yesterday, which delayed her for half an hour before arriving at the naval base, thus missing the pirates of the William Pirates.

Coles was sitting in the back row of the classroom. After hearing the name Dasqi, he felt a little stunned.

Unexpectedly, I would be in the same batch of recruits as this future "female idiot".

"Louis Art."

"arrive."

……

"Charlotte Coles."

"arrive."

When Kahn read his name, Coles immediately responded with anger.

"Okay, very energetic."

Kahn praised the last Coles, and then looked around at all the recruits in the classroom.

"From the moment you put on the white military uniform, you are the Navy. The Rogue Town Naval Base welcomes you at all times."

"But, you are not yet a qualified navy, because you are just new recruits who have just joined the navy. You can only become a real navy after going through three months of recruit training."

"Now, I'm going to give you Navy recruits your first lesson!"

As Kahn finished speaking, the recruits almost all cheered up and wanted to know what the first lesson was going to teach.

Kahn first asked the recruits below: "What do you think the obligations of the Navy are?"

Faced with this inquiry from the instructor, the recruits began to give their own answers.

"The navy's duty is to eradicate pirates!"

"Maintain order!"

"obey orders!"

Various answers echoed in the classroom.

Kahn waved his hand slightly to signal everyone to be silent, and then wrote two words on the blackboard:

"Protect!"

After writing about the real naval obligations, Kahn began to explain in detail to these naval recruits:

"Why is the navy's duty to protect? Because this is the purpose of the navy in the first place!"

"Suppressing pirates and maintaining order, these actions are all extended for protection. What do our navy want to protect? We want to protect civilians, protect the weak, and protect innocent people."

After Kahn waited for the navy recruits below to digest this, he continued to speak passionately.

"Why do our naval bases continue to recruit new recruits? Because in the battle with pirates, our navy will be injured and killed every day.

To this day, I still remember that my subordinate Vic was shot through the heart with a bullet by a pirate because he was protecting a seven-year-old child who was kidnapped...

Lant, a young navy man, broke into the fire alone to save a family of civilians who were trapped by a pirate arson. However, because the fire was too strong, he suffered burns over large areas of his body, and now he can only lie in a hospital bed. superior……

There are many deeds of the Navy. Some of them left their names and some left quietly, but they are great, glorious and worthy of praise.

When you, the navy recruits, grow up, I hope you can protect more innocent people. "

As Kahn finished speaking, many recruits fell silent and began to think.

At this time, a navy recruit who had not experienced yesterday's kidnapping incident expressed doubts.

"Instructor Kahn, I have a question.

Isn’t the pirate Jeff you let go yesterday a huge hidden danger? When the William Pirates fight against the navy, won't more navy die at Jeff's hands? "

Kahn looked directly at the navy recruit who asked the question and answered with great solemnity.

"Everyone may have a different answer to this. But I am a lieutenant commander, and I cannot abandon the current navy recruits and watch them die at the hands of pirates.

As for what Jeff will cause in the future, I can't predict it. All I can do is protect what I can in front of me as much as possible, because..."

Finally, Kahn picked up the pointer, pointed at the two big words on the blackboard, and said loudly.

"The Navy's duty is to protect, not to force others to sacrifice."

The sea breeze blew in from the window, which was refreshing, and the gentle light also penetrated from the outside, refracting on Instructor Kahn and the blackboard.

It was as if life was born.
