"Planning?"

Shimizu Akihiro frowned, waiting happily for Vice Admiral Tsuru to continue.

"His Royal Highness, in war the most important things are technology and strength. We now have top level technology, and our high end combat power is enough to protect one side, but we still need to make two strengthening changes."

Vice Admiral Tsuru nodded and continued.

"The first point is our economy. Although we have captured Land of Sea and Land of Roots, our economic strength is still worlds apart from Land of Water. According to the current strength of Land of Water and the army they sent to attack Kadan Island recently, their overall army will definitely exceed one million, and the daimyo's army is already equipped with muskets and artillery."

"Plus, with the protection of those ninja clans and Kirigakure, it's like hitting a stone with an egg to face Land of Water now.

Tsuru said a lot in one breath, and Shimizu Akihiro nodded repeatedly. She was indeed the Chief Staff Officer of Naval Headquarters, and she said the key points in one sentence. Shimizu Akihiro has always been worried about this.

The top powerhouse of Marines need to be recruited by lottery and recruitment orders. It is impossible to rely solely on those officers to win a war. If he really wants to open wage war on the world in the future, as well as manage the countries and ensure the peace and stability of those countries he acquires, he still needs the common soldiers.

"The second point is the direction of our development in the future. I wonder if Your Highness has discovered that when such a big thing happened in Land of Water, other countries are very calm, as if they are happy to see Land of Water like this, so the relationship between the countries in this world is fundamental. It is not as calm as it seems, but in fact there is an undercurrent surging below, and the balance of several countries may be disrupted at any time."

Tsuru paused for a moment, then continued, making Shimizu Akihiro's face wrinkle.

"Our primary goal now is Land of Water, Land of Stars which borders Land of Trades, and Land of Trades is the most powerful country of business and has ninjas guarding it. They have mastered the trade channels of countries all over the world, and every country wants to have control on the Land of Trades, but nobody dares to send troops even near it otherwise everyone else will just gang up to protect Land of Trades. So we don't need to pay attention to the route through Land of Stars to us at all."

"Then next, we can forget about the development of the northern border of Land of Water, annex all the small countries in the east of Land of Water, and at the same time help us accumulate more capital to fight against Land of Water."

After the Tsuru finished speaking, she stopped, Shimizu Akihiro was also lost in thought, and Kitano Ichiro, who had been frowning, looked at the crane and was shocked. This old woman was able to analyze such a detailed and thorough analysis as soon as she came. The problem of Dan Island and the direction of breakthrough.

"Advisor Tsuru, you've said it well. It has given me some new ideas."

Shimizu Akihiro nodded at the words of Vice Admiral Tsuru, although there was no clear solution, it also inspired Shimizu Akihiro. He now understands what to do.

'System, help me exchange the remaining reputation points for Six Mid-Level Marine Officer Recruitment Orders and One Hundred Low-Level Marine Officer Recruitment Orders.' Shimizu Akihiro's consciousness sneaked into the prestige mall.

[Ding! The exchange is successful]

'Use all recruitment orders'

Shimizu Akihiro immediately said used all the recruitment orders. Marine's strength is currently insufficient, and it was impossible to wait for the Marine Academy to train suitable officers in a short period of time. Shimizu Akihiro decided to use the Marine Officer Recruitment Orders first.

The officers that can be recruited by the Low-level, Mid-level and High-level recruiting orders are the same, but the odds of recruiting higher level officers are different. If you are lucky enough, even the Low-level Recruitment Order can recruit an Admiral, but Shimizu Akihiro has never believed in luck, especially when it comes to his own development. Because of this, he used the Advanced Recruitment Order to directly recruit High-Level Officers before.

[Ding! Consuming six mid-level Marine Officer Recruitment Orders and starting recruitment…]

[Ding! Congratulations on the successful recruitment of the Host. Recruited Officers ->

(Marine Captain — Sharinguru)

(Marine Lieutenant Commander — Drake)

(Marine Commodore — Daikin)

(Marine Rear Admiral — Yuchimura)]

[Ding! Consume 100 Recruitment Orders for Junior Marine Generals and start recruiting]

[Ding! Congratulations on the successful recruitment of the Host. Recruited Officers ->

(Marine Lieutenant Junior Grade–Burnum)

(Marine Ensign–Makko)

(Marine Commander–Shepherd)

(Marine Captain–Gorilla)]

As Shimizu Akihiro continued to recruit, there was also a constant stream of reports from the Marines.

At this moment, the Marine Base building seemed to be being watched, and officers dressed in justice coats were constantly appearing, making Kitano Ichiro, who was guarding here, feel like his heart was about to jump out.

Half a day later, all the recruited officers finally came together. There were One Hundred And Six people in total and the courtyard station appeared to be crowded.

"His Royal Highness, the statistics have been made."

"Today, in addition to the previous Mr. Caesar and Vice-Admiral Tsuru, there are a total of 106 people. The list is as follows" ->

Rear Admirals x3

Commodore x7

Captain x6

Commander x5

Lieutenant Commander x11

Lieutenant x15

Lieutenant Junior x21

Ensign x38

Kitano Ichiro read the numbers one after another according to the numbers he had written down in his scroll. He couldn't understand the military ranks of these guys.

"Reporting To Your Highness!

When the people below saw Shimizu Akihiro appear, they all shouted aloud. Each voice was strong and powerful, shaking the entire Marine Base.

Looking at the white cloaked Marine officers below, Shimizu Akihiro nodded with satisfaction. These people will be his capital to compete with Land of Water.

Just now, while waiting, Shimizu Akihiro made another big purchase with the remaining 1.6 Billion Ryo.

The List is as follows ->

Warships x4

Pacifista x2

Marine Soldiers x20,000

Miscellaneous (Firearms and Weapons)

Shimizu Akihiro's last 1.6 Billion Ryo were all gone. Now, not even a fraction left.

I Swear It's So Confusing To Find WTF Is A Marine's Rank In These Novels. Thankfully, I've Mostly Figured It Out From This Chapter And Corrected It All. If The Author Uses These Exact Same Ranks For All The Chapters, I'll Be Very Grateful.
