"Brothers, Deputy Kelly just called and said that the Steel General has arranged a new commander for us to lead us to the sea.”
"Isn't this a good thing? There are pirates to kill, but what's with your angry expression?”
"That's right. Deputy Kelly also said before that if there are no accidents, we won't sail for the next few years.”
"But, but the new commanders are four new recruits who just graduated from the academy.”
"What is it? Let the new recruits lead us? How can this be? I want to find the general. I won't accept it.”
"What do new recruits know? I can crush them with one hand. This is an insult to me.”
"I'll accept anyone who can lead us as a major general, let alone a lieutenant general, but what's the big deal with a new recruit?”
"Brothers, if those four new recruits dare to come, we'll blast them off.”
“……”
On the Steel Skeleton's exclusive battleship, 800 soldiers were furious and protested with red faces.
The admiral was the highest combat power in the navy headquarters. Being able to stand out from everyone else and become a soldier under him had always been their proudest thing.
Even though it had been a long time since they had gone out to battle at sea, they still had the title of " General's subordinates " above their heads. They could still do whatever they wanted in the headquarters as usual. No one dared to show them any disrespect. Even some officers had to greet them with a pleasant expression.
But today, the adjutant told them that the new commanders were four recruits who had just graduated from the academy.
In their opinion, what kind of combat power could a recruit have? It would be good enough if they didn't pee their pants on the battlefield.
Moreover, if they really accepted it, they would definitely be laughed at by their colleagues.
"Hey, Zhan Guo, they don't seem to welcome us. Did Uncle Kong trick us?”
"Don't talk nonsense. How can the Steel General be such a person?”
"I think the Steel Skeleton General is quite a nice person. It shouldn't be his order.”
“……”
At this moment, an unfamiliar conversation suddenly sounded at the stairs connecting the warship to the port.
The soldiers fell silent and turned their heads abruptly.
Zhan Guo, who had his hands in his pockets and a calm expression in his eyes, Karp, who was unscrupulously pinching his nose, Zefa, who was frowning, and Crane, who was holding his chin thoughtfully, appeared in his line of sight.
There were four of them, and they had not changed out of their academy uniforms. Their youthful faces were clearly that of new recruits…
There was no mistake, they were the new commanders.
The experienced veterans sized up the four of them and instantly came to a conclusion. They greeted them with obscure gazes and nodded secretly.
"Where did the four of you come from? Is this place where anyone can come up? Hurry up and get down."
"Yes, I don't have a good temper. Do you want to have a taste of my fists?”
"What's wrong with you third-class soldiers? Don't you know how to salute a captain like me? Didn't the school teachers teach you? Hmm?"
"I don't care what orders you received. I advise you to consider your own strength and whether you are qualified or not.”
“……”
The soldiers shouted in a chaotic manner. Many of them had ferocious expressions on their faces, wanting to scare the four of them away.
There were even some who were hot-tempered. They took out the long saber at their waist and gestured at them.
This kind of resistance was very clear. He even threatened them to take the initiative to find the Steel General to cancel the order.
"Zhan Guo, it's obvious that this group of people doesn't intend to leave with us.”
Seeing this, Zefa also knew that it would be difficult for them to command this group of veterans with their current status. He said in a low voice,"Speaking of which, we haven't been officially appointed yet.”
Although they had the top three credits in the academy, they could obtain the rank of colonel according to the rules.
However, the appointment document from the headquarters had not been issued yet. Under such circumstances, the four of them were indeed third-class recruits.
A third-grade recruit commanding 800 officers?
This was indeed a little magical.
Zhan Guo chuckled and shook his head,""The navy is a violent organization. Military ranks serve strength. So what if you're just a small fry? Four years ago, how did we make everyone in school respect us?”
"You mean?" Zefa gulped, his eyes shining.
"Beat them up." Zhan Guo said calmly.
"Hahahahaha, I've wanted to do this for a long time.”
Karp immediately jumped out and waved at the soldiers. He said disdainfully,"Who was the one who said that he could crush us with one hand?”
The soldiers looked at each other.
Soon, a three-meter-tall muscular soldier pushed through the crowd and walked out.
"Brat, I said so. Why? Are you not convinced?"
"Hahaha, don't think you're strong just because you're big. Let me smash you.”
Karp clenched his fist and stomped on the deck. He suddenly appeared in front of the soldier and punched him in the face.
Xiu, bang.
The soldier didn't even have the chance to react before he was shot into the crowd like a cannonball.
“……”
The soldiers looked at Karp in a daze, then lowered their heads to look at the muscular soldier who had fainted without any movement. For a moment, they fell silent.
However, not long after.
"Brothers, let's go!"
"Don't be afraid. They're just four little brats.”
"How dare you beat up Shangguan? Take him to see the steel-armored general.”
“……”
Someone incited the soldiers to move. The 800 soldiers charged at the four of them.
Karp was already prepared, and he charged forward without a word.
" Then we should…" Zefa touched his purple hair and smiled.
"Five minutes is up."
Zhan Guo twisted his neck, and his bones cracked.
Swoosh, swoosh.
The two of them disappeared from where they were. When they looked again, they were already fighting with the soldiers.
Crane sighed lightly and joined in as well. As a student with S-rank potential, she had learned all six moves even though she was not very proficient in them.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Boom, putong putong…
The Steel General's battleship was hit hard, and soldiers were thrown into the sea like dumplings.
The entire warship was shaking from the impact of the soldiers.
……
Five minutes later, the soldiers were lying in every corner of the deck. Everyone was beaten black and blue, holding their injured parts and wailing.
The only ones standing were Zhan Guo, Karp, Zefa, and Crane.
"From today onwards, everyone will listen to my commands. Any objections?”
Zhan Guo's figure moved and stood on the high bow of the ship. He looked down at the soldiers below and said.
The soldiers thought about it, but they still didn't answer.
Even if the eight hundred men were all defeated by force, they still couldn't bring themselves to listen to the words of the four recruits.
"A short-sighted person who cares about his so-called face. If he can't see the situation clearly, then keeping him will only be trouble.”
How could Zhan Guo not understand what they were thinking? He sighed and then…
Boom!
After four years, the Conqueror's Haki was activated for the second time.
A powerful aura burst out from his body like an invisible hurricane, sweeping out in all directions.
All the soldiers felt as if their hearts had been crushed by a huge rock. They all broke out in cold sweat and trembled in fear.
Some of the weaker ones had already fainted.
"It's so, so uncomfortable."
"Hiss, this, this is the Conqueror's Haki. I've encountered it before when I fought against the Steel General in the New World.”
"Who is he? Even a Steel General doesn't know how to do this.”
" No wonder the Steel General wants us to listen to his commands. Hiss…If we had known that he was the One Chosen by Heaven…"
“……”
Fear mixed with ecstasy appeared on the faces of the soldiers who were awake at the same time. They looked at the young figure on the bow of the ship in awe.
They had followed the Steel Skeleton King to battle everywhere. Due to the limitations of their talent and body, they might not be strong, but they were definitely the most knowledgeable. No one knew better than them what kind of person would grow in the future with the Conqueror's Haki.
It was highly possible for him to become the new general of the headquarters.
"From now on, this warship is requisitioned by us. Those who are unwilling to stay can disembark by themselves!”
The Conqueror's Haki came and went quickly. After Zhan Guo put it away, he announced coldly.
The soldiers struggled to get up and faced the Sengoku area. They placed their fingers across their foreheads and saluted, replying with their actions.
"Greetings, sir."
"Greetings, sir."
“……”
The soldiers shouted at the top of their lungs.
Swoosh.
At this moment, a figure appeared from afar. In just a few breaths, he appeared beside Zhan Guo.
"Steel Skeleton General's Adjutant Kelly, reporting for duty. I will follow you out to sea until the mission is completed.”
Zhan Guo nodded and said,""Let's go."
"Roar!" The soldiers hurriedly shouted.
The Starship slowly left, and soon, it was far away from Marlin Fanduo.
At the port, Gu Gukong had appeared at some point, smiling as he watched them leave.
"Grow up, kid. The future of the navy depends on you.”
