Early morning.
West Blue 104th Branch, training ground.
The sun is shining, with occasional sea breeze blowing.
On the training ground, naval soldiers were training in formation, with various weapons placed on weapon racks.
After half an hour's inspection, Gion and Kake were surprised to find that these naval soldiers generally had strong physical fitness.
Can this guy Alan really train such soldiers?
"This... is no less than the soldiers from our headquarters, right?"
Kake took out a cigar and lit it. Gion recognized at a glance that it was the same kind of cigar that Alan smoked, and she was furious.
"You...did you go see that guy Alan again yesterday?"
Kake was trembling with fear. Looking at Gion's increasingly gloomy face, his voice trembled as he said:
"Gion, you know me well. How could I dare to do such a thing behind your back..."
"Then how do you explain this?" Gion looked at the smoking cigar.
Kake was sweating profusely, his eyes darting rapidly from side to side...
I can't say that I accepted Alan's kindness, right?
"Isn't this what Alan gave me in the conference room yesterday..."
"Besides... didn't General Sengoku ask us to learn from Alan?"
Gion: ...
"So that's how you learn?"
Learn to smoke, drink and sleep with women?
Kake's wavering attitude made Gion feel even more itchy.
"Damn it! I will never tolerate such scum in the navy!"
"The pure justice of the navy must not be tarnished!"
Looking at those elite soldiers, she knew that the Sengoku general had not lied to her. It was impossible to train such soldiers without some skills.
Gion clenched her fists.
It's abominable that he is so capable, but he has allowed himself to degenerate and trample on the dignity of the navy!
"I must correct all of Alan's bad habits and make him an upright and good navy!"
Looking at the Gion in front of him, who was full of fighting spirit, Kake said in a low voice with some dissatisfaction:
"...Even if he smokes, drinks, and sleeps with women, he can still be an upright and good navy..."
"What did you say?"
Kake looked horrified:
"I, I say you are right! I will definitely support you..."
As the two were talking...
Alan yawned as he arrived at the training camp. He looked at the two people in front of him and said hello:
"Oh, isn't this Captain Gion and Captain Kake? What a coincidence."
When Gion saw Alan, she snorted and turned her head away.
Alan looked at the angry girl in front of him and shrugged helplessly.
It seems...what happened yesterday is still hard for her to accept.
On the contrary, Kake greeted him warmly.
"Captain Alan, I came to your training ground today and realized that your West Blue is full of hidden talents..."
He came up to Alan very rudely and put his arm around his shoulders, as if they were brothers who hadn't seen each other for many years.
Who could have known that Kake's change of attitude was entirely due to a little token of his appreciation from Alan.
"No, no, it's just that the food is better."
Gion gave Kake a look, and Kake immediately understood.
"Captain Alan! I heard you're the strongest navy officer in the West Blue. How about... sparring with us?"
Alan glanced at Gion and immediately understood...
Feeling like he can't handle me, so he wants to punish me to vent his anger...
Alan's mouth curled up.
Good guy, I didn't expect that I would be delivered to the door...
"Yeah, of course."
"You two are both geniuses from our headquarters. If we really want to spar, please be merciful..."
Kake immediately put his hands on his hips and laughed:
"Haha, don't worry... For the sake of the cigar, I will definitely control my strength."
When Alan saw the big and small Kake, his eyes went dark.
Is that what I mean?
I'll just be polite...
"Then...please..." Alan didn't intend to say anything.
After all, some things can only be understood after they have experienced them personally.
Dust is flying.
The navy soldiers nearby blocked the training ground completely. After all, no one dared to challenge Alan since half a year ago.
Today, I am able to witness such a battle with great difficulty.
"Major West, can Captain Alan defeat the two captains of this headquarters?"
A soldier looked at West and asked the question in his mind.
West just smiled.
Although it is well known that the strength of the headquarters is greater than that of the Grand Line branch and greater than that of the Four Seas branch, it is basically impossible for the generals in the corresponding positions to be stronger than those in the headquarters.
However, he witnessed Alan's growth with his own eyes.
That guy... is as strong as a monster!
The two captains from headquarters...may be in big trouble.
...
In the training ground, Alan also looked at the health bars of the two people.
Gion:
HP: 3710/3710
Physical fitness: 121.22
Strength: 150.17
Agility: 164.98
Kake:
HP: 4410/4410
Constitution: 151.22
Strength: 157.17
Agility: 132.10
"Then let me go first!" Kake walked out with his hands rubbed.
Since you gave me a little gift and two large boxes of high-end cigars...
Mr. Kake, I'll be gentler later...
Alan nodded politely.
"Then please, Captain Kake!!"
Kake lowered his knees and his muscles tensed visibly.
BANG!!
A huge force erupted in an instant, and a big hole appeared on the ground under his feet, with gravel flying everywhere and smoke and dust rising. Kake's body was directly pushed out by the terrifying force of the explosion, and the whole person shot out like a cannonball, heading straight for Alan.
Alan also clearly noticed Kake's movements. Although his speed was very fast in an instant, it was only due to his physical fitness.
The navy men watching on the training ground saw only rubble flying everywhere, and then a cloud of dust appeared. When the smoke and dust cleared, there was no one there... only a big hole left!
I couldn't help but take a breath...
Of course, West saw all the movements with great difficulty, and sighed:
"As expected of an elite navy from headquarters, but..."
But they will still be the losers.
The next second, Kake, who had disappeared on the spot, appeared in front of Alan!
The veins on his arm bulged from the tense muscles, and his fist swung towards Alan's chest with even greater swiftness.
There was no unnecessary movement at all, he just wanted to see what Alan's physical fitness was like.
If it is really just a facade, then this one strike will end the battle!
Looking at Alan who was motionless in front of him, it was as if he had no reaction at all...
Kake couldn't help but feel overjoyed.
It seems like I've tricked her this time! I even taught her a lesson in front of Gion, saying she'll definitely throw herself into my arms. If I confess my feelings next time, she'll definitely agree.
He had already thought of the VIP settlement scene after Alan was defeated by him in one move.
I looked at Alan with some apology, sorry...
Although I have held back since you gave me a gift, you can't blame me if you don't come down this time!
BANG!!
A punch landed...
