One Piece: Starting in God Valley as a Slave

Marine School,

Carl finally pulled Gion away. When they reached the door, Gion suddenly looked back at Carl. She didn't know what he said to Ginny, making Ginny giggle.

On the way back, Tsuru saw Gion with her head lowered, remaining silent, and asked,

"Gion, are you still thinking about the battle just now? Don't take it too seriously. Go back and practice hard. You will definitely be able to..."

Speaking of this, Tsuru was suddenly stunned. What she wanted to say was that Gion could defeat Carl, but after seeing Carl's series of performances just now, even she felt that this seemed to be an impossible task.

She had to admit that Carl was so talented!

Like Sengoku the Buddha and Garp, the two top Marine fighters today, did they have the same strength as Carl when they were his age?

If they had faced Carl at that time, the result would probably not be any better than Gion's...

Now, in the middle of the conversation, Tsuru was stuck there in embarrassment, not knowing how to continue speaking.

Gion wasn't naive either; she had already understood what Tsuru meant. But instead of being annoyed, she burst into laughter.

"Sister Tsuru, why did you stop talking? In fact, you don't even believe what you were about to say, right?"

With her thoughts revealed, Tsuru simply said it bluntly when facing this sister with whom she had an extremely close relationship.

"Well, Carl's talent is really amazing. To be honest, it's only a matter of time before he takes the position of Admiral."

Gion shook her head slightly and said thoughtfully,

"The future Marine Admiral... is this your evaluation of him, Sister Tsuru? I'm afraid it's better to be conservative!"

Tsuru glanced at Gion with some surprise and continued,

"Do you want to say that he can become a Fleet Admiral? A Fleet Admiral cannot be chosen based on strength alone. Judging from Carl's character, I don't think he is suitable for this position."

Zephyr has heard about Carl's ruthless treatment of enemies during missions. She has a conservative concept of justice and does not think Carl is a suitable candidate for Fleet Admiral.

Thinking of this, Tsuru also laughed, thinking that this was too far-fetched. No matter how strong Carl was, he was still just a student. Strictly speaking, Carl didn't even have a formal military rank.

Gion didn't continue to talk about this topic. She stopped and said seriously under Tsuru's doubtful eyes,

"Sister Tsuru, does Marine School still accept students now? I want to enter Marine School to practice!"

"Well, it's okay to accept, but now the first school year is almost over. If you want to join, you have to be included in the second class."

Gion curled her lips after hearing this, then she hugged Tsuru's arm and started acting coquettishly,

"Sister Tsuru, with your relationship with Zephyr, it shouldn't be difficult for me to be a transfer student, right? Just do this for your sister~"

She really couldn't resist Gion's request. Tsuru said helplessly,

"No, didn't you think the Headquarter was too boring before, and that Garp and I were not as good as Zephyr in teaching? Why do you suddenly want to enter Marine School?"

"Oh, I just want to have more contact with Carl. With such a genius beside me to push me, my strength will definitely improve very quickly!"

Tsuru looked at Gion suspiciously and asked,

"Because of Carl? I hope you don't have other thoughts about him, right? Have you forgotten about Ginny? I can tell you, if you really think so, I will never agree to your request.

You might as well consider adding some extra points, because even though Ginny's appearance isn't outstanding, she's already excellent in other aspects!"

"Sister Tsuru, what are you talking about? I was just defeated by Carl. How could I have other thoughts about him? I really just want to make progress! And can you stop asking me to be on the lookout for a potential partner all day long? It's so annoying!"

Tsuru stared at Gion for a long time, and Gion looked at Tsuru very openly. In the end, Tsuru gave in. She waved her hand and said,

"Okay, I will tell Zephyr about this, but you have to promise me that you will not cause any trouble for me after entering the school!"

As soon as Tsuru let go, Gion immediately cheered. She hugged Tsuru and kissed her hard on the face, leaving a bright red lip mark on it.

"Sister Tsuru is the best! Don't worry, I will definitely practice well in school, and I will never embarrass you!"

Tsuru wiped off the lipstick marks on her face, rolled her eyes at Gion, and said,

"You! Can you be more reserved? I see that Ginny is about the same age as you. She looks so cute. How about you?"

"Tch, it's just a little girl's attitude; men still like more mature women!"

"Just you? A mature woman? Do you want to laugh me to death?"

Tsuru stopped paying attention to her already neurotic sister and left alone.

Gion looked at Tsuru's back, her beautiful eyes narrowed, looking like a cunning little fox.

She took out a pink hairband from her pocket, tied her loose hair back into a ponytail, and murmured to herself,

"Sister Tsuru, just watch. Women don't have to rely on strength to defeat men..."

A few days later,

Carl got up a little late today and left the dormitory quickly with Borsalino, who likes to be fashionably late.

When they arrived at the training ground, it was already time to gather. Carl walked to his seat and stood, waiting for Zephyr's arrival.

Borsalino on the side tilted his head and said,

"Carl, the old man hasn't come yet at this hour. Do you think he's getting older and started sleeping in?"

Carl shook his head and whispered,

"No, the older you get, the less time you have to sleep. I think Instructor Zephyr must be delayed by something."

"Tch, what could possibly delay him? You should retire as soon as you are old. I heard that a Marine Admiral's retirement allowance is very generous!"

"So you want to be an Admiral?"

"Of course! As a Marine with a righteous heart, my dream has always been to become a Marine Admiral!"

Akainu, who maintained a standard military posture, glanced sideways at him, and the disdainful expression on his face already expressed his thoughts.

When the bell rang, Zephyr finally appeared. Everyone was stunned when they saw him, because there was a slim beauty behind Zephyr.

And this beauty was Gion, who had almost decided to join Marine School not long ago.

In the astonished eyes of everyone, Zephyr led Gion to the front, coughed a few times, and said,

"Dear students, we have welcomed a new member today. You should be familiar with her. Let her introduce herself."
