At the end of the horizon, the purple-red morning light rose up, dispersing the thin mist.
The sunlight shot out like boiling molten steel, gradually reflecting the entire blue sky translucently.
Seagulls flew across the sky, curiously looking down at a huge headquarters warship, slowly sailing out of Marinevando Harbor and embarking on a voyage to the remaining branches of the Grand Line.
The people on board were naturally the elite recruits of Nuo Xia's class.
Accompanying him along the way, in addition to more than a dozen instructors responsible for observation and assessment, was also former Navy Admiral Zefa himself.
The disciples were to leave the headquarters and be assigned to various branches as interns. For such a big matter, Zefa couldn't sit still in the headquarters. He had to personally sit in along the way until he could safely escort each student to the destination before he could feel at ease.
certainly.
This is all Zefa can do. After the last recruit is delivered to the assigned branch, he will return to the headquarters with the warship until three months later, he will pick up the disciples back to the camp.
When the time comes, there will inevitably be scenes of life and death.
After all, the internship period is different from the actual assessment. Each branch can only send one instructor responsible for supervision, so it is inevitable that there will be insufficient care.
Therefore, just like every previous term, at the end of each probationary period, a small number of people will die on the battlefield and will never be able to return to the headquarters.
Zefa didn't want to see this scene.
But what can he do?
Zefa, who has fought against countless great pirates since the old times, knows the cruelty of the battlefield better than anyone else.
If they want to become a qualified elite naval officer in the future, for these disciples who have not yet graduated, this probationary period, which they can only rely on themselves, is a path they must go through, no matter how many hardships there are.
A young eagle that has always been protected by its wings will never truly grow up.
…………
On the first floor of the cabin, in the large training room.
Nuo Xia was performing penance in hell as always.
The thick iron wall in front of you has fist marks and sword marks. At first glance, you can see that it is full of holes and holes, and it is dilapidated and mottled. People can't help but worry that the entire wall will collapse at any time.
Boom!
Another heavy punch hit the iron wall, and the entire wall suddenly shook like a thin piece of iron. The shock rippled across the area and even spread to half of the cabin.
In the kitchen next door, the chef who was chopping vegetables suddenly shook his wrist and accidentally chopped the entire chopping board and pot into pieces. He cursed his mother angrily.
"Phew, there's progress again."
Seeing the astonishing power of his punch, Nuo Xia shook his arm with satisfaction and retracted his fist. The dark color like thick ink quickly faded from the surface of his arm.
After this period of hard training, he has now basically mastered the hardening of weapons. He can harden any part of his body at will. The success rate is 100%, and the strength has also improved a lot compared to more than a month ago.
.
If at this moment, Ghost Spider were allowed to compete with him again.
So even if the opponent no longer underestimates the enemy and goes all out, Nuo Xia is confident that he can completely defeat him in just ten minutes with the help of his strengthened body!
but……
Nuo Xia loosened his clenched fists, looked down at the two swords on his waist, and smiled.
In these days, his biggest achievement is actually not the progress of domineering, but his swordsmanship!
After practicing day and night for a whole month, he finally broke through the bottleneck in the realm of swordsmanship with his unremitting efforts and officially entered the realm of swordsman!
With just a thought, you can unleash an astonishing sword energy at any time!
This makes Xi Liu, who has not yet entered the realm of swordsman, envious of this.
However, both of them also knew that Xi Liu's current swordsmanship bottleneck was also coming to an end. It would only take a month or two at most, and he would be able to become a swordsman before the end of his apprenticeship period at the latest.
"In the next training, I can't let go of domineering energy and physical skills, but the direction is more focused on seeing, hearing, color and lunar eclipse."
Nuo Xia looked at the mottled iron wall and pondered silently in his heart.
Lunar Eclipse is his best sword skill so far. Its powerful lethality and blinding control effect make Nuo Xia attach great importance to this skill.
After hard training, he has now become completely proficient in this sword technique. All that is left to do is to perfectly blend domineering energy into this sword technique to increase its already terrifying power to a higher level.
As for seeing, hearing, and color.
In these days, even though he did not deliberately spend a lot of energy on cultivation, he has still made progress. With concentration, he can now clearly capture the movement within a radius of twenty or thirty meters.
otherwise.
When going to have a tryst with Peach Rabbit, she won't easily get rid of Shia who is good at following...
Talk about it.
As if remembering something, Nuo Xia turned his head and looked through the porthole toward the distant port beyond the horizon, his eyes slightly disappointed and regretful.
Last week, Taotu received another urgent mission and had to rush to the South China Sea. He didn't even have time to see him in person and say goodbye.
Otherwise, the proud little rabbit would have stayed at the port today until he watched the warship he was riding on go away, then he would have reluctantly turned around and left silently...
See you in three months, little Bunny!
Nuo Xia rubbed his face, exhaled, recovered from his thoughts, opened the system panel again, and looked at his property bar.
[Talent skills: toothy smile, rough skin and thick flesh (intermediate level), rebirth of severed limbs]
"Have the three attributes increased a bit each..."
Looking at the changes on the data level, Nuo Xia's eyes flickered, "Tsk, inexplicably it feels like I've spent another 150,000 points in vain."
The most outstanding thing is still endurance.
Nuo Xia estimated that with his current endurance, he could easily continue to practice hard for more than half a month without sleeping.
Its level of abnormality can be said to be unique in the entire history of the elite camp.
Even the three famous generals in the future were far inferior to him in physical fitness when they were in the recruitment stage!
"With my growth rate, I will be fully qualified in terms of strength when I take the graduation exam, so there is no need to worry at all."
Turning off the panel, Nuo Xia looked out the window at the majestic sea and grinned, "So, now I only lack military exploits..."
The three-month internship period is not long or short.
Maybe in the eyes of others.
If these new recruits can follow the branch's fleet during the probationary period, encounter two or three naval battles, and defeat several cadres with high bounties, they are already considered to be quite outstanding, and they can get a good ranking in the year-end assessment.
but……
He is different.
Neither Teacher Zefa nor Xiliu and other friends from the same period seemed to have realized it at this time.
When a monster who usually works hard and can go without sleep for more than ten days starts to decide to spend all his time and work hard to gain military achievements without sleep...
