Chapter 614 Candidate, Daughter of Beasts! (Two in One)
The recruitment of new members for the new navy is in full swing. While the recruitment of new members for the new navy has attracted worldwide attention, a secret selection is being conducted among the nations.
Tsugikoku Yoshiichi plans to form several fleets mainly composed of young people and let them go to the four seas to help expand the influence of the new navy.
The four seas are the territory of the World Government and the Navy Headquarters. If the people sent are strong people in the new navy, it will inevitably attract attention.
Zoro and Kuina are both young. Children of this age are enterprising and have unlimited possibilities in the future. What they lack is only experience and proper training.
This mission is also a very good opportunity for them.
If they can break away from the protection of the new navy and make a name for themselves at sea, it can also prove their training value from the side. After that, the new navy will have stronger confidence to tilt resources towards these young people.
And it can be foreseen that since they are young enough to be sent out, the World Government and the Navy Headquarters will probably only turn a blind eye and will not rashly take action against these young people.
The Holy Land has just suffered a disaster, and the World Government led by the Celestial Dragons is completely unable to take care of itself. All its strength is used to track down the identity of the mysterious person who attacked the Holy Land.
As for the Navy Headquarters, they also need a long time to recuperate. The huge losses in the "Island of Beginning" have not been fully recovered until now.
Moreover, the Dragon Revolutionary Army has been very fierce in the four seas in recent years. The Navy Headquarters and the New Navy of the New World have an indescribable tacit understanding. The two forces do not interfere with each other and try their best to avoid disputes.
The biggest opponents that the young people of the New Navy will encounter when they go out to sea for training are likely to be those lawless pirates.
If it is based on the average level, the pirates of the four seas are naturally far from being comparable to the pirates of the New World, but no matter where they are, there will always be exceptions of one kind or another. This world is really too big. Perhaps in places that people can't expect, there are still powerful and ambitious pirates lurking.
Zoro and Kuina have both been designated as leaders. The older Kuina is the captain, and Zoro is the deputy captain.
This arrangement was also decided after discussion between Jiguo Yuanyi and Zefa and others. The main reason is not that Kuina's hard power is much stronger than Zoro, nor because Kuina is older than Zoro.
It is just because Kuina has a more stable personality and has learned more about navigation than Zoro. Of course, the more important reason is that Zoro is a road idiot. If he is asked to plan the shipping route, this fleet will probably disappear without a trace in a short time.
Jiguo Yuanyi named this plan the "Future Star" plan, which is a very rustic name, but concise. The main purpose is also very clear, which is to cultivate the future stars of the new navy.
Those who can join this fleet must be of good origin and young people with outstanding talents.
Good origin, outstanding talents, young people.
These three requirements are indispensable, because it is a team training, so even if you are of good family background and have outstanding talents, as long as you are over 20 years old, you cannot join the "Future Star" plan.
People of the generation of Aramaki and Smoker are also not eligible to participate in this plan.
The total number of people in the fleet is 15 people planned by Jiguo Yuanyi.
Among these people, some may become admiral-level senior officers of the new navy in the future, and some may become the absolute backbone of an important department of the new navy. Of course, these future stars are also very likely to fall in the experience and be buried in this vast sea.
But in any case, one thing is certain, any child who returns to Wan Guo alive will become the focus of training for the new navy.
This is related to the future of the new navy, so the internal selection of future stars has received more attention from internal personnel.
When everyone in the world is looking at the matter of recruiting new soldiers for the new navy, the new navy's own people are focusing all their attention on this future star plan.
Yoriichi Tsugakushi was the planner and drafter of this plan, but on the surface, this plan was led by Zephyr.
The first thing Yoriichi Tsugakushi did when he returned to Wan Guo was not to hand over the power from Zephyr in a hurry, but to concentrate on echelon construction.
In the name of Zephyr, the new navy set up a new department to be responsible for the preliminary selection of young people who meet the "future star" conditions in the entire army.
After the initial screening of resumes, a series of high-intensity assessments will be given to the navy who are interested in participating.
After passing the assessment, Yoriichi Tsugakushi will be interviewed together with Zoro and Kuina.
The voyage is led by Kuina and Zoro, so the two children must also be involved in the selection of crew members.
After all, they will work with them in the future, not with Yoriichi Tsugakushi. These crew members may have to eat and live on the same ship in the next few years. Whether their personalities are compatible and whether the auras of the crew members are in harmony are very important.
When Tsugaru Yoshiichi formed a selection team under the name of Zefa and began to examine young people from the entire army, Zefa and Yixiao also came forward to preside over this year's recruitment of new soldiers.
Other high-ranking officers of the new navy did not rest because of these two things. Tsugikuni Yoshiichi has returned, and he also intends to further expand the influence of the new navy and plans to unify the new world first. To this end, the new navy began to send out a large number of scouts to conduct a thorough investigation of the remaining pirate forces in the new world.
Re-evaluate the degree of danger and rebuild the files of these rampant pirate forces.
Then, according to the "threat level to a peaceful society", these pirates were sorted and classified, from high to low threat, and then named and cleared in turn.
This difficult task was entrusted to Tianzheng and Mihawk.
Tianzheng was responsible for intelligence collection and classification, while Mihawk summoned several elite troops of the new navy and began to busy themselves with various preliminary work for the sea expedition.
At the same time, the warship manufacturing factory of Wan Guo also started working non-stop, repairing and maintaining ships, and equipping the young people of the future stars with qualified enough vehicles.
These tasks are enough to keep the dock busy for a while.
The recruitment of the new navy lasted for half a month. The comprehensive arena of Fengwei Island was put to good use. People from all over the world who wanted to join the new navy gathered on Fengwei Island. After a series of competitive selections, the quota of 3,000 new recruits was finally filled.
Jiguo Yuichi also took the time to learn about this year's recruitment. The result, in Jiguo Yuichi's opinion, can only be regarded as unsatisfactory.
If the full score is 10, a passing score of 7 or 8 points will be the end.
This year's recruitment did not produce a strong man like Aramaki back then, which more or less made Jiguo Yuichi feel that something was missing.
However, Yuichi also knew that people of Aramaki's level were hard to come by. If you use modern words. How can people like Aramaki be considered an SSR? !
It's not so easy to recruit
After a simple understanding of some recruitments, Jiguo Yuichi did not pay attention to this matter anymore.
Kuzan is in charge of the training of 3,000 new recruits. As a former admiral of the Navy Headquarters, Kuzan is very good at doing this kind of thing.
Moreover, Kuzan is kind and fair, and his status in the new navy is high enough. The chief coach of the new recruits' training camp is Kuzan, which will make them feel the importance of the new navy and enhance their sense of belonging to the new navy.
Where these future backbones will be assigned to in the future is largely determined by Kuzan. In the new navy, Kuzan has great power.
Kuzan is not at all opposed to dealing with newcomers.
The reason why he chose to leave the Navy Headquarters is that he felt that he could not find justice in his heart in the Navy Headquarters. There are strong contradictions and conflicts between what the Marine Ford Navy Headquarters said and did.
A lot of justice has indeed been done.
However, the management of Marine Ford, who was manipulated by the Celestial Dragons, has no possibility of implementing justice to the end. The law often has to give way to the nobles. In such a place, it is too difficult for Kuzan to find spiritual comfort.
As the new navy recruitment came to an end, the sea seemed to have returned to calm.
The World Government has not made any major moves recently, and Marinford has not shown any abnormality, but there is something that makes Tsugakushi Yoshiichi a little concerned.
The Intelligence Department has passed a special intelligence to Zefa. After reading the battle report, Zefa felt that the matter was a bit tricky, so he came to Tsugakushi Yoshiichi's temporary office to ask Tsugakushi Yoshiichi's opinion.
Tom, the master craftsman of the Seven Waters, completed the sea train some time ago. The train that can travel on the sea. This cross-era product has attracted praise from all parties.
After Tom completed the sea train, the CP4 agents stationed in the Seven Waters detained Tom and prepared to send the master craftsman who built the ship for the Pirate King Roger to the gallows.
But on the day Tom was detained by the CP agents, Magellan, the new admiral of the Marine Headquarters, rushed to the Seven Waters with his subordinates and directly snatched Tom who was detained by the CP agents.
Yes, Magellan of the Navy Headquarters "seized" Tom by robbing him.
Later, intelligence showed that Tom was sent to the Navy's "Iron Wall" fortress, the hands of Vice Admiral Jonathan of the G-8 Navy Branch, responsible for helping the Navy build warships.
It seems that Tom just fell from the wolf's mouth to the tiger's den, but in fact, those who know the inside story know that Tom was saved by the Navy Headquarters.
The World Government has an attitude of killing anyone who has contact with Roger the Pirate King.
Tom, who helped Roger the Pirate King build ships and even knew the secrets of Pluto, is naturally a thorn in the eyes of the World Government.
However, the Holy Land, which suffered a great disaster, is weak. As the Navy Marshal, Sengoku also vaguely realized that something must have happened in the Holy Land, and he made a little move on Tom's matter to test it.
This exploration made Sengoku, who chose to compromise, more certain of his thoughts.
On Tom's matter, the Celestial Dragons actually compromised with Sengoku.
This was something that Zhan Guo had never encountered before. At the same time, he also realized that what happened in the Holy Land might be beyond his imagination.
After quickly scanning the battle report from the Seven Water Capital, Jiguo Yuichi fell silent.
Seeing Jiguo Yuichi thinking, Zefa also emphasized the value of this battle report:
"Yuanyi, you should know Tom, the shipbuilder, very well, right?"
"During his shipbuilding career, this guy used branches of the Adam's tree to make ships."
"The Dawn of yours was also made by him."
"It is rumored that Tom has mastered the power of Pluto, but this news is temporarily doubtful because he has been monitored by CP for so many years and no one has ever discovered Pluto's drawings."
"However, even so, the value of Tom cannot be measured in terms of money."
"He is the best shipwright in the world, and no one better than him has ever appeared until now."
“Now that he is under the control of the Navy Headquarters, it is not so easy for us to get in touch with him.
"If we can save him and lure him to all nations, someone will be in charge of our warship manufacturing work."
"With his help, the combat effectiveness of our new navy's grassroots sergeants can double!"
In fact, there is no need for Zefa to say so much. Jiguoyuanyi naturally knows the value of Tom as a shipwright, and there is one thing that Zefa may not be clear about. Tom has really mastered the blueprints of Pluto.
And regardless of all of this, just because of Tom's kindness in designing and building warships for Jiguoyuanyi, Jiguoyuanyi would not just sit back and ignore Tom's experience.
You can’t “leave Tom’s fate to the wind, right?”
"Lieutenant General Jonathan"
Soon, Jiguo Yuanyi had made a decision. Although he didn't know what Tom was thinking in his heart, being imprisoned in the "Iron Wall Fortress" and working as a cow and horse was obviously not his dream.
It is necessary to rescue Tom.
However, Ji Guoyuan has no intention of taking action on this matter himself.
By coincidence, aren't we already planning for Kuina and Zoro to lead a team out to sea for training? Jonathan and his iron wall fortress should be a good trial for young people like Kuina and Zoro.
"Teacher Zefa, Tom must be rescued."
"Even if we put aside personal relationships, our new Navy cannot sit back and watch the Navy Headquarters continue to grow and do nothing."
"But don't send our strong men for rescue work."
"Let Kuina and Zoro take Tom out 'by the way' when they go to Sihai."
"Although I feel sorry for placing Tom's life on Kuina and Zoro, my juniors, I, Kuina and Zoro have confidence."
"Let them try to do rescue missions as well. That's a good option too."
After listening to Ji Guoyuanyi's plan, Zefa smiled and nodded after being stunned for a short time.
"Well, let them go! With the strength of Kuina and Zoro, it shouldn't be a problem."
"However, this will speed up your selection of 'future stars'!"
"Don't keep Tom waiting."
Zefa told Jiguo Yuanyi with a smile. When Yuanyi heard the words, he lowered his head in distress and flipped through the information in his hand, with a trace of tangle on his face.
"Yamato. Female, 22 years old, Inu Dog Fruit·Phantom Beast Species·Okou Shingo."
"Why did this child appear in the sequence of my new navy?"
"And he was actually able to pass the primary election and reach the level of 'roots are upright and young seedlings are prosperous'?!"
