It was a sunny day.
After less than ten days, the fleet of the Flying Squirrel Admiral finally returned to the navy headquarters from Donghai.
"The person in charge of escorting Ace and Luffy will go to the people who pushed into the city first.
The rest of the troops returned to the barracks and dispersed, waiting for the next mission.
As for Carl, bring the corpse of the Golden Lion and follow me!”
After returning to the navy headquarters, Vice Admiral Flying Squirrel became serious.
He was not as easy-going as he was on the boat.
No matter what, as a lieutenant general, Flying Squirrel had to maintain a certain level of dignity.
He was on the ship with his soldiers, so he naturally did not need to be too serious.
But in the navy headquarters, he needed to maintain his dignity.
If the Vice Admiral did not have prestige, no one would listen to you, not even the soldiers who followed you!
Carl followed behind the flying squirrel and looked at the naval base curiously.
In his previous life, he had only seen the full picture of the navy headquarters through the war.
Although the naval headquarters in the anime was spectacular, it was still much worse than seeing it with his own eyes.
They walked from the port to the navy headquarters.
Carl passed by the armory, the training field, and the recruit training camp.
These things had aroused his curiosity, but he still had things to do, so he naturally could not go around to visit.
"Haha, is this the recruit Carl you mentioned in the phone bug? It looked really sturdy, and with the ability of this Floating Fruit, it was really convenient!”
A middle-aged man in a dark brown suit and a navy trench coat walked over with a smile. He was smoking a cigar.
This uncle looked very kind and did not put on airs at all. He left a very good first impression on Carl.
Moreover, the beard on his chin was very distinctive, making people want to grab it.
"Carl is Vice Admiral Burning Mountain. He's considered one of the strongest among the veteran Vice Generals. He's even stronger than me.”
"Really?"
Karl was excited when he heard the flying squirrel's words. Then, he looked at the burning mountain and blinked.
"How about we fight?"
"Hahahaha, you're really interesting, kid. However, I won't fight with you because someone has already reserved it.
Now, just hand over the Golden Lion's corpse to me. I'll help you settle the procedures. You can go up and accept the military rank and honor.”
Karl nodded, deactivated his ability, and placed the coffin on the ground.
Huo Shaoshan did not stand on ceremony. He directly carried the coffin with one hand and walked in another direction.
At this moment, Lieutenant General Flying Squirrel's expression darkened.
"As expected, what should come will come. You can't hide even if you want to!”
"Lieutenant General, what are you talking about?”
Carl scratched his head. He didn't hear what the flying squirrel said.
"It's nothing. Just follow behind me.”
"Oh!"
Carl nodded and followed the flying squirrel into the navy building.
The moment he entered the building, he saw many passionate gazes.
Some of these people were envious, some were jealous, but most of them were just curious.
They all wanted to see who the lucky person who killed the Golden Lion and obtained the Floating Fruit ability was.
It was no secret that Carl had obtained the Floating Fruit ability.
It was impossible to hide such a powerful ability.
That was why they were curious about how Carl had gotten so lucky to obtain such powerful strength.
Some people even began to fantasize about what would happen if they obtained such a powerful ability.
Carl's visual dominance had reached the proficient level. He could clearly sense the gazes of the people around him.
However, he didn't care. Ever since he was rescued by the residents of Boya Town five years ago, he was used to being surrounded by people.
Therefore, he only showed his big white teeth and smiled as he greeted the people around him.
No matter what kind of emotions the other party had towards him, even if it was malicious, he would smile and wave.
This made those people stunned for a moment, then they turned their heads away and no longer looked at Carl.
His attitude greatly improved the impression of the navy in the hall.
If it wasn't for the fact that Lieutenant General Flying Squirrel was in front of him, these people would probably have come up to greet him.
Carl greeted them while observing the surroundings.
Here, he found many of the navy soldiers he had seen in his previous life.
Among them were Kirby and some navy soldiers whose names he couldn't name but looked familiar.
However, the average of the navy here was relatively low, and the highest was Smoggy.
Moreover, Smoggy had just come down from upstairs.
Carl smiled and waved at him. The other party snorted coldly and ignored Carl.
The flying squirrel couldn't help but sigh.
"You don't have to do this at all. The people in the navy have different personalities. You just need to build a good relationship with the people you think are worthy of being close to.”
"I know, but I can't let others have a bad impression of me, right?”
Carl's seemingly casual answer stunned Lieutenant General Flying Squirrel for a moment before he shook his head with a smile.
" That's right. If you become enemies with others, even if you become a Great General, you will still be criticized behind your back…"
Obviously, Carl's words reminded him of Red Hound, one of the three generals of the navy!
"We're here. This is the admiral.”
A moment later, the flying squirrel brought Carl to the marshal's office.
"Marshal Sengoku, this is Flying Squirrel. I have brought recruit Carl!”
"Come in!"
After getting approval, the flying squirrel brought Carl into the office.
"How spacious!"
Carl's eyes lit up when he saw the office.
The marshal's office was even bigger than what he had seen in his manga!
Gathering fifty to sixty people here was not a problem at all!
Then, he looked around and realized that other than himself, the flying squirrel, and Zhan Guo, there were other people here.
"Ahem, let me introduce you. These three are the three generals of our navy.
From left to right were Kuzan, Sakasugi, and Porusalino.”
Zhan Guo coughed lightly and began the introduction.
Carl greeted them, but only Kuzan and Borusalino responded to him.
Sakasugi was still doing his own thing. He didn't even open his eyes.
"This is Lieutenant General He, the Chief of Staff of the Navy.”
"Hello, Lieutenant General He."
Carl greeted him, and Crane nodded. Sengoku then looked at the last person.
"This is the naval hero, Lieutenant General Karp!”
"Lieutenant…Lieutenant General Karp?"
"Hello…"
When Carl heard this name, he pretended to be guilty and greeted her.
Karp picked his nose and rubbed it against his clothes. Then, he stood up and walked in front of Carl.
"You're the one who captured my two grandsons and sent them here personally!”
"Recruit! You're really bold!"
