People are pirates, this navy is not very fair!

1507 Haiyuan Calendar

Chambord Islands, Naval Base, Commander-in-Chief's Office.

"Three years!...Fortunately it's not three years and three years!"

Sephiroth was wearing a black leather coat, with long silver hair hanging casually on his shoulders. He put his hands behind his back and looked at the plaque on the wall that read "Flexible Justice". His heart was filled with emotion...

It took him three years to go from colonel to brigadier general before he took up the position of commander-in-chief of the Shampoo Islands Naval Base!

Normally, if a colonel in the headquarters is promoted to brigadier general, if he has not made any great achievements, but is rated as very outstanding in the annual assessment, it usually takes four years to be promoted...

Of course, if you have no background, strength, or influence, then continue to endure it slowly!

If you stay in your fifties or sixties and don't make any big mistakes, you may be promoted to brigadier general!

Even Smoker was forcibly credited with saving the Kingdom of Alabasta by the Five Old Stars.

He has just been promoted from colonel to brigadier general, instead of directly to major general or lieutenant general. It can be seen that every promotion after colonel is not easy!

When Sephiroth was able to graduate from the military academy and be promoted to colonel, it was because he saved Dressrosa and saved the face of the navy in a political sense.

Otherwise, it would be great if he could get the rank of major just for wiping out those pirates!

Logically speaking, Sephiroth is stationed in the Shampoo Islands, which is the only place for pirates from all over the world to enter the new world. If he kills pirates to earn military merit, with the combination of the Gate Fruit and the Vampire Fruit, he can basically It’s just a hands-on matter!

but……

If Sephiroth really dares to start the random killing mode and touches the shady interests of others, he estimates that he will soon be complained and reported by countless "ordinary people" for violent law enforcement, corruption and bribery... Anyway, all kinds of No matter whether there is a crime or not, it will be pinned on his head!

The more he learns about the dark side of the World Government, the more disgusted he becomes with this corrupt regime...

Sephiroth's own background is not very clean, and the high-ranking officials he befriends are only pure exchanges of interests.

Usually when we make money together, we can call him brothers, but if he really gets exposed, those guys will definitely end the relationship as soon as possible.

Don't expect anything more than helping him out. It would be great if those people don't make things worse for him!

By then, the best outcome for him is to be exiled to the G5 branch of the Navy, away from the Navy's power circle. If it is even worse...

He estimated that he was afraid that he would be sent to Pusheng City Prison!

Therefore, when Sephiroth can earn merit, it is only when pirates cause trouble.

but……

Ever since his "throat-slitter", mysterious and one-shot killing method was spread, except for the first year, there were more pirates who did not believe in evil and dared to commit suicide and cause trouble in the Chambord Islands. , three years later, the number of pirates who still dared to cause trouble became very rare, and he couldn't meet one for several months!

As for those guys who dare to cause trouble, they either think they are strong enough and want to become famous in a battle, or they are stupid enough and stunned enough...

however……

Waiting for the results of these guys will lead to death!

Therefore, Sephiroth's ability to be promoted to brigadier general so quickly without having enough meritorious service every year must naturally involve exchanging interests with all parties...

For example, in Commodore Kesha... Oh! No, it was Rear Admiral Keisha. When he was plotting the position of Admiral of the West Sea, Sephiroth also helped. In exchange, the other party also strongly recommended him to the corrupt senior officials of the Navy to take over as the commander of the Shampoo Islands Naval Base. s position.

In the past three years, in addition to the still booming arms business, Umbrella Company's monopolistic shellfish products have also occupied a considerable share in many industries!

It is worth mentioning that the supply of weapon shells such as blast shells, laser shells, impact shells, etc. used for combat is in short supply!

Even the navy took the initiative to place an order. In addition to using those weapons to equip some soldiers, they also wanted to use them to develop new weapons...

Taking this opportunity, Sephiroth also used the power of corrupt senior officials in the navy to win arms orders from some naval branches!

However, the Navy has the most demand in the transaction for the memory alloy created by Jim's ability. The demand for other weapons is relatively small...

Recently, Sephiroth successfully completed experiments on bloodline factors on mice and created genetically modified mice.

After three considerations, he finally decided to give up the next step of human experiments.

Humans only have one child a year, so if he focused on research into genetically modifying humans, it would probably take many years to succeed.

After all, the human growth cycle is too long, and it will take at least ten or eight years to realize the effect of genetic modification...

His original purpose of researching bloodline factors was just to create devil fruits!

After learning from experiments on genetic modification of mouse fetuses, he also had a new entry point into the research on Devil Fruit, so he did not want to continue taking detours...

The temptation to directly create a legion of ability users and increase the overall combat power of one's own force is too great!

Moreover, he can also let Jim directly fuse devil fruits and weapons...

On the other side, with the help of Tezzolo, Stella also successfully "bought back" the throne of the Sardo Kingdom...

More than a thousand heavily armed combatants from the Umbrella Company, led by two people, broke directly into the palace of the Kingdom of Saldo.

When the previous king was given the choice of either being killed in a coup or giving up the power to rule the country for [-] billion beli, he chose the latter without hesitation and left the Kingdom of Sardo with his family.

After Stella became the queen of the Sardo Kingdom as the legal heir, she gradually turned this country into a major arms trading country in the first half of the Great Channel, with weapons sold as far away as the East China Sea and the South China Sea.

Under Sephiroth's instruction, Stella chose to pay the heavenly gold to make the Sardo Kingdom a member of the World Government, thus gaining the protection of the World Government and the Navy...

In addition, the Kingdom of Dressrosa, located on the other side of the Red Continent, is responsible for the second half of the Great Channel, as well as the arms trade in the North Sea and the West Sea.

In this way, the Umbrella Company has gradually gotten rid of the constraints and blood-sucking of senior officials of the world government, and no longer needs to spend a lot of money to open up relationships...

The reason why the Umbrella Company has this confidence is mainly because Sephiroth serves as a buffer hub to resist some unwilling people.

In the past three years, Sephiroth's reputation as "The Cutthroat" has been widely spread not only among the pirate community, but also among the navy and the world government.

His strength and talent are obvious to all, and he is still so young. In the eyes of others, sooner or later he will have the opportunity to compete for the position of admiral...

Sephiroth simply sneered at this. He had no interest in becoming a naval admiral and serving the Celestial Dragons every day!

After the situation of the Umbrella Company gradually stabilized, he was already considering whether it was time to train himself a spokesperson in the navy!

As the big boss of an umbrella company, he actually has to clock in and work in the Navy... It’s very hard to think about it!

Although, he spends most of his working time fishing with his bat clone...

Sephiroth knew very well that he had been walking between black and white, which was tantamount to dancing on the tip of a knife. It would be fine if nothing happened, but once something happened, he would definitely not be able to walk around in circles...

Compared with the complicated situation of Sephiroth, the situation of the three Boya sisters is much simpler. After Hancock had the title of Shichibukai, the navy removed the bounties on all the members of the Nine Snakes Pirates, making Xia Qi and others on the ship became ordinary people again.

Due to Hancock's great strength and charm, as well as her contribution to Nine Snake Island, two years ago, she undoubtedly won the support of most of the Amazon Lily Kingdom's citizens, ascended to the throne, and became the The previous empress was expelled from the country.

It was said to be expulsion, but that was only in name.

In fact, Hancock just asked the previous empress who suffered from a similar disease to leave Nine Snake Island to pursue her love...

However, Hancock considered that if she directly stated that she agreed to leave the Nine Snakes Island as the previous empress, it would have a very bad impact on the female citizens.

If there is one, there will be a second one. The women on Nine Snakes Island are full of curiosity about creatures like men!

If Hancock directly allows them to leave the country, the Amazon Lily Kingdom will collapse in a very short period of time, and her long-term efforts will be in vain!

Therefore, Hancock still practices that only the strong can sail on a pirate ship and see the laws of the outside world.

On the other hand, in order to enhance the overall strength of the country and increase the population, Hancock not only equipped his pirate group and island defense army with the most advanced weapons of the Umbrella Company, but also increased the number of female orphans adopted by Nine Snake Island every year. The number has doubled.

As long as these girls are carefully trained for ten or eight years, they will become a very reliable fighting force in the future...

Boom boom boom!

A sudden knock on the door interrupted Sephiroth's thoughts. He turned around and sat on the chair behind his desk before speaking:

"Come in!"

A school officer named Mike, wearing a white cloak of justice, opened the office door with a stack of documents in his hand and saluted him.

"Brigadier General Sephiroth, I brought the latest enlisted soldiers' information!"

"Lieutenant Colonel Mike, are there any guys with potential among these recruits?"

"Yes. Among the fifty-eight recruits we recruited this time, there is a guy named Virgo. He is very good..."

"Oh!? Virgo...show me his information."

Upon hearing this, Lieutenant Colonel Mike immediately handed the documents in his hand to Sephiroth. The one on top was clearly Vergo's information.

"Age 26, height 247 centimeters, weight 145 kilograms, weight lifting 2826 kilograms, grip strength 2209 kilograms, 10 meters in [-] seconds..."

Sephiroth murmured in his heart while looking at Vergo's physical examination parameters during the recruitment process:

This guy should have hidden some of his strength!

Otherwise, just based on these data on paper, Vergo is not qualified to serve as the top cadre of the Don Quixote family, the first generation Corazon!

Speaking of which, Vergo 15 years later didn't even eat the Devil Fruit. He was able to defeat Smoker and Sanji with just pure physical skills and domineering. His strength level should also be at the level of the emperor's deputy...

Pity! ...Vergo is a man who is loyal to Doflamingo, and I can't take him for my own use!

Lieutenant Colonel Mike said with a look of regret:

"Speaking of which, this guy Vergo is also quite a pity!

He is 26 years old now, and in half a month, he will be 27 years old!

Judging from the data from Virgo's military recruitment physical examination, if he had entered our navy a few years earlier, he would definitely have been able to attend the military academy in Marineland, and his future would be limitless!

Unfortunately, the military academy has already started this term.

By next year, he will be overage..."

Sephiroth gently rubbed his chin and murmured:

"What a pity...!? Maybe?"

Doflamingo chose this time to let Vergo join the navy. He obviously calculated the time correctly so that he could miss the opportunity to enter the military academy...

With the paper strength shown by Vergo, it is not difficult to enter the military academy. As long as he makes meritorious service and obtains the rank of non-commissioned officer, he can easily stand out from the navy soldiers and become a military academy student, thus being subject to a secondary background review.

Although Vergo has the Don Quixote family to help cover it, it is not certain whether they can hide from the navy's investigation...

However, Marine Fando Military Academy has a rule that it will not recruit naval soldiers over the age of twenty-six to become military students.

Because, once this age is exceeded, if one is not gifted, the potential that can be tapped by the body will be greatly reduced, and the value of training is not high.

Therefore, in order to allow his body to have the highest potential and plasticity, Sephiroth began to use the ability of the vampire fruit to stop his body from aging when he was 17 years old...

As long as he wants, he can stay 17 forever!

Of course, this is actually a kind of helplessness!

Since he has not experienced any ultra-high-intensity battles in the past three years, his strength can be said to be improving slowly!

In addition to the large amount of armed domineering power in the body, only the insightful color that can touch the threshold of the future can still be used!

And this was what he realized through many sword duels with Gion in the past three years...

It's no wonder that guys like Moria and Crocodile have become so weak after withdrawing from the stage of the New World Hegemony...

There is no pressure, they are abusing people in the Bronze Game every day, one against nine, they are a perfect match for the rank!

Seeing that Sephiroth seemed to be thinking about something, Lieutenant Colonel Mike immediately said tentatively:

"Brigadier General Sephiroth, do we need to focus on training this Vergo?

For example, after his recruit training is completed, assign him to the special mobile unit or the maritime patrol unit...? "

Hearing this, Sephiroth raised the corners of his mouth slightly, showing a hint of a bad smile:

"Huh!? It really needs some attention...

Arrange him to the logistics department and let him be responsible for the toilet sanitation of the base!"

"ha!?"

Hearing this, Lieutenant Colonel Mike suddenly showed an expression of astonishment on his face.

"What? Do you think there is something wrong with my arrangement?"

Sephiroth narrowed his eyes slightly, his tone was slightly cold, and a faint murderous aura enveloped the school officer.

Gum!

Lieutenant Colonel Mike swallowed subconsciously. He was afraid of offending his immediate superior, so he was also assigned to work with Virgo to wash the toilet...

So, he quickly shook his head and said:

"No! No, I think your arrangement is appropriate!"

"It's nothing, just go out first!"

Sephiroth waved his hand impatiently, indicating that the other party could leave.

"Yes!"

Lieutenant Colonel Mike gave him a standard salute before turning to leave the office and closing the door.

Vergo, you, an undercover agent of the Don Quixote family, still want to get ahead under me?

Then three years and three years... Yeah! ?Add another three years!

You can become the cleaning captain of this base!

While Sephiroth was arranging a bright future for Vergo in his mind, he threw the recruit information he had read on the table.

Except for Virgo, others have no value in cultivating at all...

Swish!

Sephiroth pulled out the butcher knife from his waist, swiped it in the void, and opened a space door. On the other side of the door was his underground laboratory on Island No. 50 of the Shampoo Islands.

He casually opened the iron cage on the experimental table and released the bloody bat inside.

Squeak...!

A large group of black bats split from his body and became entangled with the blood-colored bats, forming bat clones.

It stepped through the space door and walked into the naval base office, replacing Sephiroth in his boring work routine, while his true body stayed in the laboratory to conduct research...
