The existence of the Skeletal Demon was a lingering shadow for Bastille.
His powerful strength and endless methods had even played the Marine Headquarters in the palm of his hand.
However, now Kai was telling him that the Skeletal Demon had appeared in Alabasta.
He had even joined forces to kill the dignified Shichibukai, Crocodile.
If he hadn't heard it with his own ears, who would have believed that all of this was true?
"Later, Princess Vivi will give you an official explanation." Kai didn't explain too much.
Sometimes, the more you say, the more flaws there are.
Moreover, the most convincing person was Vivi, who was from the former Celestial Dragon royal family of Alabasta.
Hearing this, Vivi, who was following beside Kai, had a slight change in expression and nodded in agreement.
Unlike Bastille, who was kept in the dark, they had long known that Uchiha Kai, Ainz Ooal Gown, and Laxus were all the same person.
Vivi wasn't clear why Kai was doing this.
However, since Kai had appeared as the Bone King, he had not only bestowed Yuba with seven days of torrential rain, but also turned Yuba's yellow sand land into an endless oasis just now.
Based on these favors alone, it was enough for Vivi to make up this lie for Kai.
"Lord Ainz, please rest assured. There weren't many people watching the battle just now. I'll immediately issue an order to let them keep their mouths shut." Vivi said urgently.
"At the same time, I will report the course of this matter to the Marine Headquarters in my father's name."
Watching Vivi, who had suddenly become serious, Kai stopped and patted her shoulder and said, "I'm relieved with you handling things."
"Also, rest assured, I don't have any intentions for Alabasta."
At the same time, in the Marine Headquarters, in the Recruit Camp, the huge square was filled with recruits who were undergoing intensive training.
Zephyr, who had retired from the position of Marine Admiral and become the chief instructor of the recruits, was looking at the recruit queue below with a serious face.
When he saw some of the more outstanding students, a trace of comfort flashed in the depths of his eyes.
It could be said that as a teacher, there was nothing more than being able to see the newcomers that he had cultivated successfully leave the Recruit Camp and become the pillars of the Marine that was more worthy of being happy about.
Thinking that the Recruit Graduation Exercise would be held soon, Zephyr's face became more solemn and said in a deep voice, "Gathering everyone here today is because you will be participating in the Maritime Combat Exercise as recruits next."
"In the training camp, you may be very bad, or you may have just barely passed, or you may have good talent and possess strength that surpasses ordinary people and reaches the point of being extraordinary."
"However, once you walk out of this door, in my eyes, that's just a fart. I can beat all of you alone, and it's the kind that wipes you out."
The awe-inspiring words echoed in the world and couldn't be dispelled for a long time.
However, for these completely unforgiving words, the Marine soldiers below obviously didn't take it to heart.
It could be said that they had long been accustomed to hearing these admonishing words in the Marine Headquarters for three years.
Moreover, after hearing it too much, it was even a little kind.
Watching the expressionless recruits below, the coldness on Zephyr's face was slightly restrained and said, "In half a month, I will apply for you to go to the Grand Line and participate in the combat assessment."
"You who are able to gather here are all elites among the Marine recruits, so the assigned assessment tasks are also different."
"Those who arrest pirates with a bounty of more than 10 million Berries will directly become a lieutenant commander. Pirates with a bounty of 30 million Berries can make you a commander."
"Pirates with a bounty of 50 million Berries will make you a captain. When you have the ability to arrest pirates with a bounty of 100 million Berries, then you will be a commodore."
Speaking of this, Zephyr's tiger eyes were like torches as he swept around the field and finally landed on the four most valued confidants and shouted sharply, "However, I can tell you very responsibly."
"There are only a few people who can become a Marine commodore after walking out of the Recruit Camp, and at least there aren't any among you."
"If you think I'm talking nonsense, then please show the strength of Sakazuki and Kuzan, those little brats, otherwise don't act like heroes in front of me and don't set your goals too high."
"If possible, I would rather you fail than lose your lives. To carry out the Marine's justice, you need to be alive, understand?"
"Understood!"
Dozens of Marine elites shouted in unison.
Faced with this powerful response, Zephyr's old face couldn't help but have a trace of redness.
"Haha, I didn't expect you, Zephyr, to train a group of talents for the Marine Headquarters again. Next time I see the Gorosei, I'll let them praise you and increase the Recruit Camp's military expenditure." Sengoku's voice suddenly came.
Faced with Sengoku, who had changed his usual behavior, Tsuru was slightly surprised. At the same time, she clearly knew why Sengoku had undergone such a huge change.
After all, during these three days, they had carefully studied the Six Styles lecture that Bastille had transmitted back, which came from Laxus.
The perplexity about the Six Styles' secrets had disappeared. After studying this lecture, the feeling of getting stronger was amazing.
"Isn't that Fleet Admiral Sengoku? Doesn't he always sit in the Headquarters' atrium and rarely come to the rear's Recruit Camp?"
"Fleet Admiral Sengoku wouldn't have learned that there are many elites in our class and specially made an exception to come here to take a look, right?"
The scene suddenly became a little noisy.
For the Marine recruits, the most yearning thing, in addition to the admiral, was the position of Fleet Admiral of the Marine.
Sengoku was able to ascend to this position. Whether it was strength or intelligence, it was not comparable to ordinary people.
What's more, the Marine Headquarters and the Recruit Camp were connected.
But the two sides were too far apart.
If they had to explain, one was at the mouth of the sea, and the other was in the interior of the Red Line.
However, there was a road connecting the two, and in between was the residential area for the families of Marine soldiers and generals.
"Shut up, all of you be quiet." Zephyr's face sank and he shouted angrily, "Can the appearance of an old man make you ignore the military regulations?"
"Your actions just now have completely lost my old face. Now I want you to run fifty laps around the training ground. If you don't finish it before noon, you won't have any food."
The awe-inspiring words echoed in the huge square.
Faced with this unquestionable order, the recruits present smiled wryly, but they didn't have the slightest intention of refuting.
Among them, the people with strong strength and intelligence had already rushed out first.
Their appearance was even more like they were holding back their strength to perform.
