Chapter 65: Navy Headquarters

What is the Navy?

The Navy is an organization directly affiliated with the World Government and performs the work of maintaining law and order in the world's oceans in the name of "absolute justice."

Its headquarters is located on Marinevando, an island in the Great Channel, and is considered a symbol of peace in the "Great Age of Pirates."

at this time.

Great Waterway, Navy Headquarters.

Several huge white flags were fluttering in the wind, with seagulls symbolizing peace printed on them, and a wrench across the middle.

The crescent-shaped port below.

Large warships dock here one after another. These warships usually patrol the waters of the Grand Channel and round up pirates when they encounter them.

This happens every day, over and over again.

There is no special reason for this, it is just because this is the duty of the Navy Headquarters, and evil needs to be driven out in the name of "absolute justice."

And among these many warships.

A warship coming from Rogge Town in the East China Sea was parked quietly on the edge.

After Coles reunited with Major Kahn, a rare smile appeared on his face.

When the recruit period ended before, he didn't have time to see off the major, but today they finally met again.

This rarely made him happy.

"Instructor Kahn, long time no see. Have you been promoted to colonel in your headquarters?" A slender girl with short hair and red-rimmed glasses stepped off the warship from Rogge Town.

Kahn did not forget the girl's name, and a smile spread across his lips.

"Dasi Qi, long time no see."

Later, Kahn explained:

"During this period, your military ranks have been promoted, and I will not be idle here at the headquarters. I captured two big pirates during my previous mission, so my military rank has been promoted to colonel at the headquarters. "

Coles didn't have much surprise. Where did Major Kahn's strength lie?

As long as there is an opportunity, it is normal for pirates to seize promotion.

"Major Kahn!"

At this moment, another navy man wearing a navy coat stepped off the warship.

Kahn looked at this former old subordinate and corrected him: "Long time no see, Maude, you should call me colonel now."

"Yes, Colonel Kahn."

Maud immediately saluted.

No other sailors got off the ship, and only three people came from the Rogue Town Naval Base: Coles, Dasqi, and Maude.

Both Dusky and Mod were recommended by Smoker to participate in the elite training camp.

Elite training camp!

This is where the Navy Headquarters concentrates teaching resources to cultivate the backbone of the Navy.

As long as you can enter the elite training camp, you will become a powerful navy after you come out. For ordinary navy, its appeal is very huge.

Each department of the Navy has quotas for recommendation.

However, a recommendation is a recommendation, and whether you can successfully enter the elite training camp is another matter.

Because the Navy wants to cultivate elites, the number of people in the training camp is limited. Only the Navy who pass the preliminary assessment can eventually enter the elite training camp.

After all, there are very few naval officers like Coles who directly book places in elite training camps.

If I want to use the words of my previous life.

That's a walk-on!

After Kahn welcomed the three Coles, he began to lead them away from the port.

"Okay, I'll take you to familiarize yourself with the place to rest and temporarily live. Follow me closely and be careful not to get lost."

…

In Malinvando.

The tallest building.

That is the tower of the Navy Headquarters!

It was an extremely tall classical tower. The lower part was a city wall made of gray-black marble, with the two characters "Navy" printed on the surface.

The upper part is composed of floors one after another. The eaves are exquisitely shaped and gathered upwards in an orderly proportion, full of simple charm.

If someone could look down from the top floor of the Navy Tower, they would see that Malevando actually looks like a crescent moon.

In Kahn less...

Now led by Colonel Kahn, the three marines from Rogge Town began to cross the huge square and arrived at the residential area with many buildings.

In addition to combat facilities on this island.

There are also many residential facilities. The residents on the island are all family members of the navy.

Marines wearing white navy uniforms walk here from time to time, so the four of them don't appear to be anything special here.

All the way.

Coles' dress and appearance have attracted some people's attention and discussion.

"Hey, look at that young marine, he's still wearing a navy coat at such a young age?"

"It's true. Judging from his age, he should be only eighteen or nineteen years old. Is he now an officer above the warrant officer level?"

"That's not the navy of our headquarters. This time period is the time when the elite training camp is held. There are many navy from all over the world. The positions there are three levels worse than those of our headquarters. If it were here, I guess this young man would just be The standard of a corporal in this department.”

"Well, I think it's about the same. At this age, my son's military rank is only a sergeant in the navy headquarters. However, it's a pity that my son didn't inherit all my handsomeness, otherwise he could be compared with this boy's handsome face."

Although it has gone far.

But with his keen hearing, Coles still heard the conversations of those people.

The last person who spoke was an uncle in his fifties. Although his appearance was old, he was still somewhat handsome. He might have been extraordinary in appearance when he was young.

After walking through several streets.

Kahn brought Coles and the other two to a row of dormitories, where there were many vacant rooms that had been cleaned up.

"You will rest in the rooms here. I have already arranged the rooms and procedures for you. Over there is the cafeteria, where all navy members can eat for free."

"Well, it's getting late, and I have something else to do. I have to go on duty first. My residence is in the building not far away. If you need anything, you can come to me and rest early."

After a detailed explanation, Kahn left the row of dormitories.

Watching Kahn leave, Coles and the other two were puzzled.

Why did Major Kahn seem reluctant to stay in contact with them for a long time?

Is it because this is the headquarters of the navy?

Is the discipline strict?

After looking at each other.

Mod suggested: "It's only five o'clock now, why don't we go over to eat first?"

"Let's go."

Coles was in front of him, and it would be a waste not to eat this free meal.

…

At this time, because there were still five days before the preliminary assessment of the elite training camp, the recommended navy officers were somewhat relaxed.

After dinner, most people began to rest in their rooms.

Kors did not fall asleep.

In addition to only needing to sleep three hours a day, he also couldn't sleep because of the pressure.

This is the legendary Navy Headquarters!

Although he did not see the three most powerful admirals of the Navy Headquarters, Coles still felt a huge invisible pressure.

His strength in the East China Sea was indeed good before, but this is the Grand Line.

As one of the three major forces in the Grand Line, the Navy's headquarters is full of masters, and there are even more people who know the Navy Six Styles and Haki.

After leaving [Lanros] and the twelve [Shadow Knights] with his family, Coles' overall strength dropped a lot.

Except for the Shadow Fruit.

The strength of Coles' top precision swordsmanship is not worth mentioning in the Navy Headquarters.

It seems that every moment must be seized to practice and strive to improve.

…

Late at night.

The night is dim.

There were only a few stars outside.

This row of dormitory buildings had many rooms, and all of them were inhabited by candidates recommended by various sea branches to participate in the elite training camp.

There were still five days before the preliminary assessment, and there was still plenty of time.

Therefore, most of the navy who came to participate in the preliminary assessment of the elite training camp had already relaxed their vigilance and fell asleep.

In Coles' room.

He was meditating with his eyes closed, hoping that he could break through the current bottleneck of accurate swordsmanship and enter the next stage of cutting iron.

It was dark all around.

There was no movement at all, but Coles could sense the sound of dust falling.

This was because his sensitivity was greatly improved under the amplification in the shadows.

Suddenly.

Coles came out of meditation and looked at the figure that suddenly appeared outside the window.

It was a middle-aged man with an ordinary appearance, wearing a navy uniform and a navy coat on his back. At this time, he was looking at Coles in the room through the window.

After seeing Coles's reaction, the middle-aged man wrote down the score on the report board in his hand, and then disappeared silently.

It was one of the six styles of the Navy, the shaving!

Coles' eyes narrowed. He had learned this skill before coming here, so he discovered how the middle-aged officer suddenly appeared and disappeared.

Didn't the preliminary assessment start in five days, or was it a secret assessment?

Ten minutes later.

The middle-aged officer with an ordinary appearance finished the assessment and turned to leave the dormitory building.

On the report board in his hand, he scored everyone's alert reaction, with the lowest being 1 point and the highest being 10 points.

Among them, most of them were below 6 points, and those who could reach above 6 points were all navy officers with very good alertness and reaction.

Although Coles directly reserved a place in the elite training camp, the assessment officer still recorded his score on the report board.

The score number recorded after Charlotte Coles's name is: 10!
