Pirate: Son-in-law, I’m determined!

Naval Branch 153 Fortress.

Recruit registration office.

"Name?"

"Loya."

"age?"

"17 years old."

"Why join the Navy?"

"To get ahead!"

The pen in the lieutenant's hand stopped on the paper, he raised his head and looked at the young man in front of him, and nodded incomprehensibly.

Very common reason.

But few people say it outright.

He had an impression of the young man. About three months ago, the merchant ship on which the young man's family was traveling was robbed by pirates. Only the young man was lucky enough to survive, and he has been working as a busboy in a tavern in the town since then.

There's nothing wrong with the background.

The branch's conditions for recruiting new recruits are not that strict, as long as they are not wanted criminals and are in good health, not to mention that the branch has suffered heavy losses and is in urgent need of new blood.

"approve!"

"Thank you, sir!"

"Sergeant Mengka, take the new recruit Loya to get familiar with the base."

"yes!"

Mengka responded in a loud voice.

Only then did Loya notice the strong man standing aside.

Monka?

"Ax King" Mengka!

With a tall figure of nearly three meters and a solemn and unsmiling face, he looks intimidating.

Loya estimated that with his small body, he would have to lie down on the ground and call an ambulance as long as he was lightly punched by the opponent.

Before there is strength beyond common sense, size is an absolute advantage.

hiss--!

Is this the oppressive feeling of "Axe King"?

When Mengka came to Loya, he seemed to want to be more friendly and put on a smile that was uglier than crying.

Pretty scary.

"Newcomer, follow me."

"Yes, Sergeant Mengka!"

Luo Ya straightened his back and showed a calm attitude.

Since you are here to be a soldier, you must look like a soldier.

What's more, at this time, Mengka had not yet transformed into a future dictator, nor did he have the power and rights he had at that time.

After receiving the rations for new recruits, Loya followed Mengka with his quilt and bucket in his arms, familiarizing himself with the general situation of the fortress.

Two cylindrical defense towers, four high-rise buildings for accommodation and logistics, plus several open training grounds, this is the 153rd Naval Branch.

Including logistics, the entire branch totaled only more than 200 people, of which the number of officially established naval soldiers was only over 100, and most of them were lost in battle.

It can only be described as shabby.

However, this is reality.

The backbone of the navy gathers on the Grand Line, especially the Navy Headquarters, with the purpose of protecting the safety of the Holy Land Mariejoia.

As for the navy stationed in the four seas, not only are its troops scattered across the four seas, but its combat effectiveness is also far inferior to that of the navy of the Grand Route. It is even difficult to defeat the "big pirate" with a bounty of less than 20 million.

Dormitories, restaurants, entertainment areas

Having a general understanding of the layout of the fortress, Mengka took Loya to the recruit training ground.

Dozens of preparatory recruits are undergoing physical training, but their mood is quite low, and even the slogans are shouted weakly.

The fallout from the defeat was just beginning.

Mengka clenched his fists, and veins bulged on his arms, showing his hatred for the pirates and his unwillingness to be incompetent.

It took him a long time before he loosened his fist.

"Starting from tomorrow morning, you will undergo basic training here. In the afternoon it will be chore time. Someone will lead you."

Mengka explained the precautions.

The newly joined recruits are all the lowest-level handymen. In addition to necessary training, their main tasks are cleaning and other logistics work.

That is, handymen.

Even the character "雑" is printed on the back of the uniform.

Fight against pirates? The miscellaneous soldiers are not worthy yet.

Only when the miscellaneous soldiers can successfully complete basic training such as physical fitness will they be promoted to third-class soldiers. At that time, they will no longer be responsible for chores, but the novice protection period will also disappear.

Going to the battlefield!

Loya listened carefully to Mengka's explanation.

The training items for recruits are basically physical training, including 200 push-ups, 200 sit-ups, 10 laps of rope climbing, 20 laps of long-distance running on the school field, etc.

"So that's it. It's exactly one-tenth of the training volume of our navy."

Loya knew it well.

He has a certain understanding of the naval training content of the Navy Headquarters.

Before time travel, because Kirby's strength had skyrocketed, he chatted with netizens who spoke particularly well, and one of them talked about the training program of the Navy Headquarters.

Maybe that's why he traveled through time.

Sorry, he shouldn't have gotten high.

"Sergeant Mengka!"

Loya faced Mengka and pointed at the recruits and training facilities on the training ground, his eyes shining: "Can I join the training now?"

"Now?"

Mengka was stunned for a moment.

It is normal for new recruits to be in high spirits when they first join the army, but not many of them ask for formal training when they first arrive.

interesting.

If you think that recruit training is easy, you are totally wrong!

Normally, a chore soldier needs at least three to six months of training before he can successfully complete basic training and be promoted to a formal third-class soldier.

Do you want to make great achievements when you come up?

Let’s first ask the pirate’s sword and gun master if he agrees!

Mengka became interested and wanted to see Loya's potential. He said with a straight face: "Yes, but I must remind you that as long as you join the training, you must not quit midway. Do you understand?"

"clear!"

Loya took a deep breath, immediately ran into the training ground, followed the recruits at the end, and ran in a circle around the training ground.

20 laps in total!

One lap of the track at the training ground is a standard 500 meters, and 20 laps are 10 kilometers. Even if the average physical fitness of people in this world far exceeds that of the earth, it is not easy to complete it.

"Hey, new guy?"

The recruits noticed Luo Ya. They were actually all chore soldiers, but they joined the branch two or three months earlier. They were considered "old people" among the recruits who were about to graduate.

"Brothers, work harder!"

"clear!"

The recruits tacitly agreed to speed up, intending to give the newcomers a little more strength. This was one of their few pleasures.

The speed of the training phalanx gradually increased, and Loya, who was already hanging at the back of the team, watched helplessly as he fell behind.

The distance quickly widened.

"Show off your power."

Loya was not surprised and kept running silently.

Wherever there are people, there is a world. It is common for old people to bully newcomers everywhere, and this level is not considered bullying, at most it is just showing off.

If you can’t keep up with training, then you are useless!

In the first lap, Loya was very relaxed.

On the third lap, sweat broke out on Loya’s forehead.

On the fifth lap, the training phalanx appeared behind Loya, leaving him behind and shouting slogans when passing Loya.

"One! Two! Three~Four!!!"

The chants echoed throughout the training ground, making Loya's ears ring.

Circle fifteen!

The recruits have completed the lap training and stood on the edge of the training field for a short break to watch the newcomers' jokes.

Loya was the only one left on the track, moving as slowly as a tortoise, trying his best every step of the way.

"Hu~ha~hu~~"

Luo Ya gasped for breath, his lungs seemed to be on fire, and there was a burning pain. His clothes had long been soaked with sweat, and the wetness stuck to his skin.

Uncomfortable, even painful!

His current body is just that of an ordinary 17-year-old boy. Although he is young and strong, he has been trained according to navy standards since he started, which puts a huge burden on his body.

His legs were as heavy as lead, his vision gradually blurred, and he could still vaguely hear teasing sounds coming from nearby.

Ignore external interference.

At this moment, there was only one thought in Loya's mind.

run!

This is not just a training session, it is also related to his future and whether he can replicate the miracle of Kerby.

"thump!"

Suddenly, Loya's head felt dizzy, and then his knees weakened, and his thin body fell to the sand.

"The newcomer can't hold it anymore!"

The new recruits who were watching immediately became energetic.

Under normal circumstances, the training intensity of newcomers will not be very high. If they can run 10 laps in the first long-distance running training, it is considered very good, and the instructors will not be too harsh on newcomers.

There has to be an adaptation process.

They all came here like this, and the amount of training increased step by step until they could keep up with the training intensity of formal sailors. However, even after training for several months, they were all sweating after running 20 laps.

The newcomer's ability to complete 15 laps in one go was beyond their expectations.

"Hey, look!"

Just when everyone thought that the newcomer couldn't hold on anymore and needed to rest, the newcomer propped up his body with both hands and got up little by little.

Keep running!

The playful smile gradually disappeared.

"This guy is not bad at all!"

Someone muttered something, and the others nodded in agreement.

Very good indeed.

"Sergeant Mengka, what's his name?"

"Loya?"

"Ah, I remembered, he is a bartender working in Food Tavern!"

"Damn, I'm so envious!"

"It doesn't matter that he is handsome, but he can still get along with Mrs. Lilixiang day and night!"

"Brothers, in the following training, give the newcomers more strength!"

"it is necessary!"

In this information-laden world, going to a pub for a drink in your free time is almost everyone’s favorite hobby.

The gentle and beautiful tavern proprietress Mrs. Liliciang is the dream lover of many sailors, so she falls in love with Loya who lives in the tavern.

hehe.

Newcomers must be made aware of the dangers of society!

In the evening, dormitory building.

Mengka picked up the drained Loya and threw him onto the bed in the dormitory, shocking the other newcomers in the dormitory.

This is only the first day!

After Mengka left, the roommates immediately gathered around. One of them took a broom stick and carefully poked Loya's butt.

"Hello?"

"Don't make trouble."

Loya lay on the quilt and twisted her hips in protest.

It took him a whole day to complete the basic physical training that new recruits could complete in half a day. At this moment, his soul was almost floating out of the Tianling Gai.

So damn tired!

"call."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and went back to their beds.

As long as he's not dead, they don't want to have their bodies collected on the first day they join the navy.

Time passed little by little, and the excited newcomers fell asleep one after another while bragging, looking forward to tomorrow.

Soon, there was a sound of snoring.

Late at night, close to twelve o'clock.

Luo Ya suddenly opened his eyes, sat up from the bed, looked around at the sleeping Snoring roommates, and came to the balcony alone, his lips moving slightly.

"The World!"

The surrounding space stretched outward, quickly building an independent world of nothingness, as if entering the starry sky of the universe.

Immediately afterwards, a series of training facilities such as sand, runways, and climbing ropes emerged in this empty space.

It's exactly the same as the boot camp!

"Exactly what I expected!"

Luo Ya was refreshed and dragged his tired body into the training ground.

This special independent space is the special power he awakened after traveling through time. It can record and reproduce the external environment.

"Unfortunately, we can only simulate things related to training."

After three months of exploration, Loya had a preliminary understanding of the function of "the world". Simply put, it is a pure training space.

It has nothing to do with a substitute.

The "world" will reproduce the "training process" he has experienced, so during the day, he will work hard to complete the basic training.

It seems useless.

But time in the "world" is at a complete standstill. No matter how long he stays here, the time outside will not change at all.

In other words, he can perform additional training in the "world", allowing him to have more training time than others and put in more sweat to improve his strength.

This is the power of "the world"!

However, it takes mental strength to keep the "world" going.

When I first traveled through three months ago, the "world" could only last for an hour, but now, it can last for almost three hours.

Loya firmly believes that as long as he continues to become stronger, the duration of the "world" will continue to be extended, thus achieving the miracle of working 200 times harder than others!

"Work 200 times harder!"

"Kebby can do it, there's no reason why I can't do it!"

"I want to be an admiral too!"

Working hard is his most likely and currently only way to get ahead. If he still slacks off when the opportunity is presented to him, he will look down on himself!

Loya stepped forward.

run ahead!
