After running for an unknown amount of time, Casio, who was running at the very front, had already stopped. Behind him, Baki and Nick finally caught up.
Bending over, Nick and Baki held their knees with both hands and panted heavily.
"To... They had arrived…Huh?" Nick asked intermittently.
At this moment, Casio's breathing had become much heavier. Casio replied,""We're almost there. We're very close to the base!”As he spoke, Casio turned his gaze towards Baki and chuckled."Looks like your friend won't be able to pass the first exam! Did you give him all your luggage? What a wise choice."
It seemed like Casio believed that Jaffa had no chance of passing, so he brought Baki's luggage along to increase Baki's chances of success.
Hearing Casio's words, a smile appeared on Baki's face. He panted as he refuted Casio,""No, I can't! I believe that he will definitely be able to pass!”
Lightly curling his lips, Casio clearly didn't believe Baki's words. Straightening his body, Casio shouted,""There are still ten minutes left. I'm going to sprint!" After saying that, Casio suddenly charged forward!
Seeing Casio's actions, Nick and Baki were both stunned, but they forced themselves to follow after him.
Eight minutes later.
Looking at Baki and Nick who were dragging their legs as they ran with great difficulty, Casio's eyes revealed a satisfied expression. His running movements also slowed down. It seemed that these two fellows had passed the first round of the assessment!
Casio was rather satisfied with this result. In comparison, Casio still felt that his physical fitness was the most important. As for fighting techniques and the like, it didn't matter if he continued to learn them in the future.
Looking at the two people behind him, Casio couldn't help but encourage them,""Hold on a little longer. We're almost there!”
Saying so, Casio's pace became slower and slower. In the end, the three of them were basically walking. However, the difference was that Casio was taking care of the two of them, while the two of them could no longer run.
Finally, through the gaps of the dense trees, the blurry image of a base appeared in their eyes.
And right at this moment, Casio was suddenly startled as he exclaimed,""No! There's a situation!" After saying that, Casio immediately rushed towards the base.
After a leisurely stroll earlier, Baki and Nick had recovered a bit of their stamina. Seeing Casio's actions, the two of them exchanged a glance and immediately followed after him.
Not long after, the three of them rushed out of the dense forest. What greeted their eyes was a group of people surrounding the city. The three of them could clearly see that these people were facing the center with their guns.
Seeing that nothing major had happened, Casio couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief. Following that, his expression turned solemn as he shouted,"What are you all doing!"
Hearing Casio's voice, the few people who had their backs facing Casio suddenly turned their heads. When they saw that it was Casio, they saluted him. One of them shouted,""Captain, there's an intruder!”After saying that, the few of them opened up a path for Casio.
Casio and the other two followed the path that they had opened up and looked inside. At this moment, Jaffa was sitting leisurely in the middle of the circle. Beneath his buttocks were his and Baki's luggage.
"It's you! How could you?" Upon seeing Jaffa, Casio's expression suddenly froze! His face was filled with disbelief.
Seeing Casio, Jaffa immediately stood up and said softly,""Sir! I wonder if I passed the first exam! I can. I've been waiting for you for a long time!”
Hearing Jaffa's words, Casio's expression froze, not knowing what to say! After a long while, he nodded stiffly.
After finding a room for Jefa Baki and Nick to settle down, Casio only told them that the assessment would be held the next day, and did not reveal the contents of the assessment.
However, Jaffa received a piece of shocking news. His mission had already been completed, and now an optimized version of the White Eyes reward was waiting for Jaffa to receive it.
After pondering for a long time, Jaffa finally managed to guess a possibility. It should be because his performance was too outstanding. Casio had decided that regardless of his results in the upcoming assessment, he would still allow him to join the 107 squadron.
The more Jaffa thought about it, the more he felt that his guess was correct. He immediately put down the doubts in his heart and began to pay attention to the rewards this time.
After Jaffa obtained the optimized version of White Eyes, his pupils would not change color. Activating it would consume Jaffa's mental strength. The ability was the same as the White Eyes ability in Naruto, but it would not change the appearance of the eyes. Moreover, his control over the ability had also increased to a higher level. It had some abilities that White Eyes did not have, such as the adjustment of vision.
Jaffa could not help but heave a sigh of relief. If he stared at a pair of pure white eyes every day, he would either be treated as blind or as a mutant. However, thinking about it, the chances of being treated as a mutant were higher. This was not what Jaffa wanted.
As he thought about it, Jaffa directly retrieved the reward. There was no change. Jaffa felt a chill in his eyes and couldn't help but close them. When he opened them again, although he didn't roll his eyes, Jaffa still felt that the whole world was much clearer and his eyes were brighter.
He tried to activate White Eyes. In an instant, the entire base was reflected in Jaffa's eyes. He didn't even need to turn his head. His 360-degree field of vision allowed Jaffa to see everything at a glance. However, Jaffa clearly felt a trace of fatigue in his brain. Clearly, Jaffa was still a little lacking in the ability to simultaneously receive information from 360 degrees around him.
