Chapter 546 Recruit Training Camp
...
"Crack!"
Back in the third team's lounge, as soon as Ajin opened the door, fireworks were set off!
"Congratulations on your promotion, Jin!"
Everyone congratulated.
"Hehehe! Congratulations, Jin, you got promoted again! In less than a year, you've been promoted from a rookie to a marine corporal. Your military rank is higher than mine! I'm really jealous of you!"
Kang Si warmly put his arm around Ajin's shoulders and congratulated him.
"Thank you guys!"
Ajin said with a smile.
"If you hadn't ignored our advice, Jin, and always used too much force to kill the pirates, you should have been able to level up two or three more times!"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, what a pity! Otherwise, he would have been promoted to second lieutenant based on his military merits within less than a year of joining the service! He would have become a new legend in our East China Sea Navy!"
Everyone was talking about it.
"Yeah, you should be more careful next time. In principle, we have to hand over the pirates to the judicial department after arresting them. Privately executing pirate prisoners is not allowed. Although it is difficult to define whether it is intentional or manslaughter, all the bounty pirates you have fought have not left a single one alive. As the captain, I have been scolded a lot for this! You should pay some compensation for mental damage, Master Jin!"
Bellmaire complained.
"Haha, thank you for your hard work, Captain. I will pay attention next time."
Ajin agreed casually.
"What an insincere answer! Well, forget it. At this rate, it won't be long before your military rank surpasses mine. Then I will leave the captain's position to you, and let Commander Da Vinci worry about it himself! No, the old man is retiring soon!"
Knowing that Ajin didn't listen, Bellmère waved his hand helplessly and said.
"Hehehe! I think Jin did a good job! Those sinful pirates should all be killed. You are already one rank higher than me. What else do you want? If I really promote you to second lieutenant, do you think I will save face?"
Kang Si jumped out to express his support.
"Ajin, you must keep up the good work. It would be even better if you can be demoted for this! There's nothing wrong with being a private first class together!"
"He has killed so many pirates this year and made so many contributions. Everyone thinks that his promotion to corporal is too low. What about you, Kang Si? Shouldn't you reflect on yourself? Why are you only a private first class after so many years of service and becoming a veteran?"
Bellmaire teased with a smile.
"Hey, hey, hey, big sister, on such a happy day, can you please say less and save my face?"
"By the way, if it weren't for your wise leadership, our Third Squad would have repeatedly disobeyed orders, and every time we finally made a contribution, we would either make up for it or be demoted one level. I wouldn't have been promoted and demoted until now and am only a private first class."
Conse couldn't help but complain.
"Oh? I've wronged you, haven't I? I've become a stumbling block on your road to success, haven't I? Tomorrow I'll ask the colonel to transfer you to another team."
Bellmère put his hands on his hips and said rudely.
"No, no, I was just kidding. I don't want to go anywhere! Our Third Team is the best! I will be a member of the Third Team in life and a ghost of the Third Team in death!"
Kang Si hurriedly explained, and the others laughed at his shameless appearance.
Watching the daily playfulness of the third team, Ajin also showed a relaxed smile. After a year of getting along with each other, he and this group of teammates have established a deep comradeship.
"Hey, everyone, listen to me."
Ajin spoke up.
Only then did they stop arguing and look over with curiosity.
"I'm here to say goodbye to everyone and thank you for your care during this period. In two days, I will leave here and go to the Marine Headquarters in Marinford to participate in the boot camp."
"Uh?"
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, but they were not very surprised.
"This is great news! Congratulations, Jin! We all know that a genius like you needs a bigger stage! Staying in the small 158th branch will only tie your hands and feet!!"
Kang Si patted Ajin's shoulder vigorously and said.
"That's right, Jin, just go for it. We are all looking forward to the day when we retire and can drink some wine in the pub, read the big news about you in the newspaper and brag to the people around us that we were once teammates with the admiral!"
"Yes, yes, yes! Big sister is right, the Admiral of the Marine Headquarters! So handsome! If it's you, Jin, you will definitely be able to do it!"
Bellmère and the others also encouraged with a smile.
"I will work hard. Thank you everyone. I will come back to see you if I have the chance."
Ajin bowed to several people to express his gratitude.
"Hahaha, any gratitude is just empty talk. Let's all go to the bar tonight and have a few drinks to celebrate! You're a rich guy, but I didn't expect you to run away so soon. I won't have the chance to blackmail you anymore!"
Bellmère began to "arm-arm" enthusiastically.
"no problem!"
That night
The atmosphere in the small town pub was lively, everyone was drinking happily and toasting to this brief but wonderful encounter!
...
grand line
Marine Headquarters Marineford
Dozens of young marines gathered in the spacious training ground. They were all talented young marines from various naval bases, and each of them was the most outstanding one in his circle.
The young and self-important boys and girls were looking at each other curiously at this moment, and they couldn't wait to create sparks and test their level among this group of elites who were also selected from thousands.
Ajin lowered the brim of his hat and stood alone in an inconspicuous corner, observing quietly.
He also wanted to find out the strength level of these people in front of him, but not for the sake of competitiveness. Although Ajin was still young, his mind was already mature. What he was considering was how much strength he should hide so that he could perform just right, being excellent but not so exaggerated as to arouse suspicion.
Like Ajin, there is also a young marine who is just over 2 meters tall and has actively marginalized himself. He wears sunglasses and has a serious look on his face. The only thing that makes people want to laugh is the black strawberry hairstyle on his head, and the lightning-shaped sideburns on both sides are very stylish.
"Da da da!"
There was a sound of footsteps, and then a middle-aged man about 3 meters tall, with a strong physique, short purple hair, and a firm and serious face walked over.
"General Zefa!"
"It's really General Zephyr!"
"Great! I finally get to meet him in person!"
There were murmurs among the excited crowd.
Ajin raised his head and looked at the legendary admiral curiously.
The other person was wearing a purple suit with a luxurious cloak of justice draped over his shoulders. His face was solemn and he walked like a dragon or a tiger, giving people a sense of oppression that was as unshakable as a mountain!
