G-Eighth Branch!

In the center of the first half of the Grand Line, there is an island that looks like a copper wall.

"Anada~ You must eat all of these."

A beautiful girl with a smile was standing in front of a bearded man with a bitter look on his face, holding a plate.

"Jessica..." A cold sweat broke out on Jonathan's head. Looking at the plate full of green and red vegetables in front of him, his throat couldn't help but move.

"Anada, I'm going to prepare the food for the training ship that will arrive next. Remember, food must not be wasted."

Jessica turned around gracefully and smiled at Jonathan.

The commander of the G-8 branch, Vice Admiral Jonathan, could only pick up the fork with a grimace, looking at the green vegetables and red radishes, not knowing how to eat them.

It's difficult~~~

Jessica came to the navy canteen. A large group of chefs were working hard to cook, because soon the internship ship from the navy headquarters would arrive, and the next batch of navy on duty would also come to eat.

Looking at the busy people, the smile on Jessica's face slowly dissipated. Not only the navy soldiers in the branch had heavy tasks, but also the logistics staff like them were also working hard.

After all, people are like iron, and food is like steel. If you don't eat one meal, you will be hungry.

Not everyone is a naval admiral. Nimei's will not eat for ten days and nights.

"Hurry up, everyone. The internship ship will be here soon. Why are you making the curry so hot! Also, cut the radish over there into cubes for me and pour it in!"

Jessica directed for a while and started to prepare the ingredients.

At the coastal port of the G-8 branch, the patrolling soldiers were taking over their shifts.

"I said, I heard that the training ship from the headquarters will come to our base for rest today?" A naval soldier who handed over his shift looked at his captain with a smile and asked curiously, "What does the headquarters look like? I don't know. I know."

The squad leader slapped the guy angrily, "Make it look like I've been there. Except for some officers above the rank of captain, no one in our base has ever been to the headquarters."

"It should be spectacular."

Looking at the mountain peaks and the dense forts, the soldier began to yearn for the appearance of his headquarters, which must be even more spectacular than here.

Ding···Ding···Ding···

The lookout soldier in charge of the observation sounded the alarm.

"The naval battleship was found, it is the flag of the Navy Headquarters! The training ship is here!"

As the lookout soldiers shouted, the soldiers began to run quickly, opening the sealed bay and preparing to receive the trainee ship that came to rest.

"What an iron-walled fortress!"

On the training ship, Moen sat on the railing, looking at the orderly G-8 branch in the distance.

Unlike other branches, the last branch in the first half of the Grand Line is also the farthest branch from the headquarters.

The G-8 branch will build a crescent-shaped island and transform it into a naval branch. The reefs in the crescent-shaped bay are the best defense traps.

Following the command of the soldiers from the G-8 branch, the training ship arrived at the port safely.

"This...what happened to you?"

After getting off the boat unsteadily, Moen saw an old man looking helplessly at the internship boat in front of him.

Not to mention the shattering of the shell, the keel vaguely buried in the water gave him a feeling of cracking.

Was this being attacked from the bottom of the sea?

"This is Mekao from the maintenance team of our branch. He is an extraordinary boatman." The soldier responsible for picking up Zefa and the others introduced.

Moen nodded. No matter where he is, the status of a boatman will never be low.

To put it bluntly, unless you are the kind of person who is loyal and never changes his mind, navigators and boatmen will basically not be killed on the sea.

Whether they are recruited as one's subordinates or sold as slaves, the survival rate of people in these two professions is much higher than that of ordinary sailors.

Watching the maintenance squad begin repairing the naval warship, Zefa took a group of new recruits to rest.

Lieutenant General Jonathan is already waiting at the port.

"Teacher Zefa!" The bearded Jonathan rushed forward excitedly and hugged Zefa, which made Moen and others on the side feel a little embarrassed.

Zefa was very casual and patted Jonathan on the back cheerfully, "Okay, what does it look like! Where's Jessica, why didn't I see her come out with you?"

After Jonathan saluted Zefa, he replied, "Jessica has already gone to prepare lunch for the students. I will take you, teacher, to the cafeteria."

Seeing Zefa follow Jonathan and leave, the three of them, Moen Binz Ain, looked at each other, shrugged and followed.

Laerila did not follow the others, she stayed alone on the warship. After all, if she appeared in the branch, she would definitely cause a sensation.

In the navy canteen, in the cleared space, the trainees on the training ship were eating happily.

This meal was carefully prepared by head chef Jessica and all the chefs. It was very delicious and looked very luxurious.

Moen looked at the curry on his plate and the steak on the side, and twitched the corner of his mouth.

It is impossible to eat these things on the ship.

Don't look at the original work where Luffy and the others had all kinds of luxurious meals, food and drinks after they got Sanji.

There were no more than ten people on board, and Sanji was definitely busy on his own. Coupled with his cooking skills, the food was no problem.

But the navy that sails far away does not have such good treatment.

The chef needs to prepare food for nearly a thousand people, plus storage problems. It's good to be full, but don't expect exquisiteness.

Instead of gobbling as much as before, Moen slowly and slowly cut the steak in front of him while watching Teacher Zefa and Lieutenant General Jonathan chatting.

This thing was very expensive in my previous life, so I had no intention of eating it.

 "Um."

Putting a small piece of steak into his mouth, Moen couldn't help but hum a little due to the rich juice and the elastic beef.

Binzi, who was sitting next to him, tugged on his turban, forked a large piece of beef and put it into his mouth, and then began to gasp.

"Sure enough, the food in the naval base is delicious." Binz shed tears of happiness...

Ever since Moen's training began to slack off, Teacher Zefa began to pay close attention to Binz and the others' physical training, which made Binz feel extremely tired every day. If the chef hadn't started a small stove for Binz and the others when he had nothing to do, he wouldn't have been able to catch up. consumption.

The good memories of resting in the G-7 branch suddenly flooded into my mind.

"Binz, I don't mind telling the chef what you said." Ain scooped up a spoonful of curry with a spoon in a very ladylike manner and put it into his mouth happily.

Binz's face froze instantly. If the chef had heard what he said just now, I'm afraid he would never be able to turn on the stove...

With Binz trying to please Ain endlessly, the meal came to an end.

In the base headquarters office, Jonathan is playing chess with Zefa.

"Teacher, how do you feel about my G-8 branch?" Jonathan quietly took a dark move and looked at Zefa who was thinking hard and asked.

Zefa frowned and kept stroking his fingers on the table, "It's very good. He's very energetic and has the demeanor of a navy."

Jonathan smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Teacher, what you see is just the surface. Eh~"

Zefa raised his head in surprise. He was a very competitive student. He could not compete with Akainu and the others because they were natural fruit ability users. During the same period, there was basically no one who could suppress Jonathan. What now? Sighing?

"G-8 Branch, the mainstay of the first half of the Grand Line." Jonathan finished the last move and checked Zefa with a sigh. "But at least half of my soldiers have never seen blood and have never really dealt with pirates."

General naval branches have their own squads, just like the G-1 and G-5 branches in the New World, which have more than ten squads.

Generally, major generals and colonels lead cruises to maintain the stability of the sea.

Jonathan has thousands of soldiers under his command, including fifteen squads, with each squad having two hundred men.

But these three thousand people are only half of the combat soldiers in the base, and many of the other half are recruits who have never experienced war at all.

As a hawk, Jonathan loves fighting, but unlike Akainu, he cherishes his soldiers very much, which also gives him a very high reputation among the soldiers.

Zefa looked at the dead chessboard in front of him, scratched his head and stood up, "They haven't experienced blood, so why don't you just let them experience it?"

Jonathan handed Zefa a cigar and lit one himself and took a deep breath. "It's not that easy. Most of the pirates who came to the Grand Line are extremely vicious people. I don't want my soldiers to do so." Slaughtered by them when unprepared.

Special treatment during wartime, but now is not a wartime. What I want to do is to train this group of soldiers into soldiers who are not afraid of fighting, instead of letting them die. "

Zefa walked to the window, looked at the neatly patrolling soldiers not far away, and said nothing.

"Actual combat? Is Legend qualified enough for our soldiers to practice?"
