Pirates of the Navy Thunder God

Chapter 28 The general returns to fight against Shuzo!

Naval Headquarters, 1:30 p.m.

Confrontation training is a must-have training course for almost every faction. Ron had participated in it before, but if he hadn't used the Thunder Fruit at that time, he couldn't compete with the new recruits of the same period in boxing, kicking and swordsmanship. Not to mention experience and skills, the physical fitness alone was enough to widen the gap. The foundation was weak and there was no comparison.

But now it's different. Even if he doesn't use the power of the fruit, the power in his body is enough to make the recruits despair! Compared with the simple fruit ability users, Ron is a guy who pays more attention to the development of his body than the devil fruit. He would rather let his body drive the development of the fruit than become a useless person without the fruit!
Self-challenge is not just about pursuing destruction...

When Ron arrived at the square, the seats in the Colosseum were already full of people who came to watch the test. It is worth mentioning that at this time, they all changed direction... The seats that were wrapped in a circle during the Daoli test in the morning were cut in the middle and stretched to the left and right, forming an arc, embracing the square in front that could accommodate 100,000 people!

The huge square was filled with high platforms. On each platform, there was an instructor standing with his feet crossed and his hands behind his back. They were responsible for protecting the recruits from fatal injuries during the confrontation training, and they also served as referees to judge the outcome.

When the team of new recruits led by Zefa entered the venue, cheers resounded through the sky!
"Come on! You little bastards!"

"Remember, hit him in the balls! Hit him in the balls!"

"Hahaha! Ron, I'm rooting for you!!"

In addition to cheering, officers at all levels privately discussed which new recruits in this round were worthy of their attention and attention... The Navy was just a piece of iron to the outside world, and could put aside all conflicts in front of pirates. This was an iron rule! But there were factions within the Navy. Hawks and doves were just a mainstream, and more of them were different naval families, competing openly and secretly with each other to win over talents and seek benefits for their families.

The Navy and the World Government have a similar history. They have stood on the sea for hundreds of years, and their descendants have all served in the Navy. It would be a joke if there were no factional distinctions.

In this world where the strong are respected, those with real potential, such as Ron, a natural genius who may become a general in the future, will benefit the family immeasurably if they make friends with him.

"Hey, Stein, what do you think of that Zorro?"

"He is a promising talent, but he seems to be a little listless lately. I don't know what's wrong..."

"Is Ron here? The Quest kid will definitely go to help his father. If we can..."

"Forget about it! Considering how much the Marshal cares about Ron, there is no way he would allow us to win him over!"

"Tsk, that's right! Then I can only make myself familiar with him..."

"Who says it isn't?"

It is impossible for the Admirals of the Navy to not know about the factions of their subordinates, but they never overly suppressed them. Because they knew that even in this world of the strong, they could not solve all problems with fists... For example, a mosquito was lying on Jiebao.

As long as you don't touch things that you shouldn't touch, Zhan Guo won't bother to care.

For example, even a blind man can see that Ron has a bright future, and such a person cannot stand in the navy. The Warring States and the World Government will not allow him to stand in a certain family and become the banner of a family, leading to the dominance of that family.

Moreover, compared with subordinates who are united in purpose and act like a gang, it is more conducive to ruling by leading disputes that can be controlled.

It has nothing to do with good or evil, right or wrong, this is just the wisdom of a superior.

After Zhan Guo took the first seat, the colonel officer came on stage and began to explain the rules. The rules were not much different from the confrontation training rules, with only three major changes.

1. Deliberate killing is prohibited. Those who violate the order will be expelled from the navy and will never be employed again!
Second, no secret operations or bribing opponents are allowed. Those who violate the order will be expelled from the Navy and will never be recruited again!
Third, you are not allowed to intentionally interfere with other people's competitions. Those who violate the order will be expelled from the Navy and will never be recruited again!
Normally, confrontation training would not result in such severe punishment as expulsion from the Navy or permanent non-recruitment. For the same offense, the most that could be dealt with was imprisonment or conviction. It was purely because the occasion was too serious today, and the Navy needed stronger discipline!
After a brief explanation, the colonel announced: "Now... the confrontation test begins!!"

"Then... I'll go first..."

Ron glanced around, and under the gaze of the recruits with twitching lips, he turned into thunder and moved at a high speed. Ordinary people could only judge that something had just flown by the mottled light and shadow left on their retinas.

Even though he has not yet learned the Six Navy Styles, Ron's movement speed is still terrifyingly fast!

"That is……?"

"It's Ron! I didn't expect him to be the first one up!"

"Go up... that's fine! We can just sit and play..."

"Hahaha! That's right, these little guys can't do anything to the Nature Department!"

There are hundreds of recruits in the recruit camp, and they are fighting against each other one by one. So there is nothing to do today, just sit there and watch the game! Therefore, the process of the competition has been adjusted to a certain extent. In summary, it is... a battle for the high platform!

The duration is two hours, and there are 30 platforms. The top recruits who are still standing on the platform at the end of the time are the top recruits. After that, the groups will be divided into two groups to compete against each other, and the first place will be decided in this way. It ends at about or o'clock. "Wait! Something is wrong!"

Someone with sharp eyes suddenly spoke up, carefully counted the number of platforms, and then exclaimed: "Why is there one missing? There are only 29 platforms?!"

"What? Hiss...it's true!"

There are only 29 tables, doesn't that mean there are only 14 groups of winners competing?
There is one more person who will either get a bye and advance directly. Or...

"Hey, could it be..."

Seeing Ron's indifferent look, he obviously noticed this as well. The onlookers who came to watch the performance looked back at Zefa and the man stretching his muscles beside Zefa, and their mouths twitched...

Now, there is something good to watch!
……

“Hahahahaha!!! You little idiot, you’ve got this day too!!!”

Garp's signature hearty laugh echoed in the quiet boss area, the sound was so loud that it was deafening. Sengoku raised an eyebrow and snorted, "Be quiet, Garp!"

"Oh……"

After picking his nose nonchalantly, Cap looked back at Ron and "puffed" again, spraying the donut crumbs all over the floor.

“Hahahaha! But…but…this is so funny!!!”

"Ah, what are you so happy about, Mr. Cap?"

Suddenly, a figure slowly walked onto the stage. He had fluffy black hair, was tall and slender, and was wearing a white jacket and a blue shirt, with a suit jacket lazily draped over his shoulders. He exuded a kind of "listless" aura.

"what?"

Hearing the voice, Garp looked back and said with a smile, "You're back so soon, Kuzan?"

That's right!

The visitor was none other than Kuzan, one of the strongest fighters in the Marine Headquarters and one of the three admirals who went out to sea to carry out a mission, codenamed "Aokiji".

"Yeah, I thought it would be a lot of trouble, but I didn't expect... Ugh!"

In the middle of his words, Aokiji stretched and yawned loudly. Then he rubbed his eye mucus and said to Zhan Guo: "You think too much, Marshal."

"It's a good thing that there are no big troubles! This world needs peace!"

Zhan Guo answered calmly, paused, and added: "After watching the game, go back and hand in the report to me immediately. It's nothing to be lazy all day long. Do you understand?"

"Hey, I understand..."

Aokiji shrugged, not surprised by this. That lazy look really didn't resemble the majestic admiral of the navy at all.

With these three generals around, it’s no wonder that Zhan Guo doesn’t care about Ron’s personality issues… In comparison, he is the most normal guy!
After greeting Garp and the others, he came to the seat that belonged to the admiral and sat down... slumped. Kizaru next to him came up, pouted his lips and smiled obscenely: "Hey, Kuzan, you look so tired, do you want to take a gamble on the next mission attendance opportunity?"

"Hmm? Okay...but what are we betting on?"

Turning over, Aokiji answered lazily.

"Let's bet on how long that kid can hold on..."

Kizaru pointed his chin at the quietest platform in the middle of the venue, his face full of sarcasm: "Sakaski said he can only hold out for half an hour, I said one hour, how long do you bet on?"

"Um?!"

His originally dull and dull vision suddenly became bright after he stopped at the platform. Aokiji rubbed his chin and said in surprise: "The opponent is actually Brigadier General Shusa? Is this kid that strong?"
