An 18-year-old candidate for Admiral appeared in the Navy.
In just a few days, with the desperate work of a large number of news birds, the news spread almost all over the ocean.
This was definitely not good news for the pirate forces.
On the Moby Dick, Whitebeard was having a banquet with his sons. Someone brought in a newly received newspaper. Whitebeard just glanced at it and immediately crushed the barrel in his hand.
"It's this little Navy kid named Carl again! He's fighting Zephyr? Stop kidding!"
When Carl's name was heard, the atmosphere of the banquet suddenly stagnated. Oden sat next to Whitebeard. He stared at Carl's photo in the newspaper with hatred in his eyes.
He touched the empty sleeve on his left and said hatefully,
"Оur Whitebeard Pirates must take revenge!"
Whitebeard glanced at him and said,
"Oden, of course, I will take revenge, but you should pay more attention to Toki now, she is about to give birth."
After hearing this, Oden's anger slightly calmed down. He nodded and said nothing more.
Whitebeard spread the newspaper on the table and said lightly,
"The Navy is promoting supernovas so loudly just to suppress us pirates. Ha, they are not the only ones who have new monsters."
Oden was stunned for a moment and asked,
"Pops, you mean...."
"Pirates can also push out a few so-called supernovas. Our Whitebeard Pirates will take up two spots, namely you and Marco."
Oden is now 31 years old, the same age as Drake when he later became a supernova.
With the influence of the Whitebeard Pirates today, after the news of the pirate supernovas was released, the newspapers immediately buzzed with excitement like flies smelling something. It is definitely not possible to have only two pirate supernovas, but the pirates don't need to worry about this. Based on the news of the past two years, the newspapers directly selected five powerful pirates and stuffed them into the team of pirate supernovas.
The Beast Pirates were established, and Kaido, who was jumping around everywhere, was among them. Moreover, their pirate group was quite impressive. In addition to him as the captain, there was also the number two person on the ship, King.
However, Kaido was so angry when he saw the news that he wished he could smash the reporter who stuffed him into the supernova list to death with a stick.
King asked puzzledly,
"Boss, you don't look happy?"
Kaido raised his head and took a few gulps of liquor, angrily saying,
"Humph! I'm really tired of being a newcomer! I don't care about supernovas!"
He grabbed the newspaper and wanted to tear it up but suddenly saw the news about Big Mom. It turned out that her second son, Charlotte Katakuri, was also selected as a supernova.
Kaido suddenly became a little happy and muttered,
"She gave birth to so many children, but only one was selected. It's a bit embarrassing, Lingling!"
Looking at the remaining two supernovas, both are energetic guys, one is Moria, and the other is Crocodile.
Kaido has no interest in these two people. He just looked at Moria's photo and complained.
"This guy is a bit ugly, I want to give him a beating!"...
At the Navy Headquarters, after that night, Carl and his class of students still lived in the school dormitory for the time being, waiting for the Headquarters' arrangements.
When they had nothing to do, these old students would go to the training ground to watch the newcomers train and give a few words of guidance from time to time, experiencing the sense of superiority.
Lucia was still inseparable from Carl. She often went out at night to find Carl to do something he liked to do, and would not come back until the late night.
Once, when Lucia came back, she met Ginny, who got up at night. She always showed a cold look on her face, but there was a rare panic on her face. At the same time, there was an indescribable feeling in her heart, exciting and shameful.
Ginny tilted her head, looked at Lucia's slightly messy clothes, and asked,
"Lucia, did you go out at night? Can't sleep?"
Lucia pursed her lips and said in a muffled voice,
"Yeah."
Ginny laughed, patted Lucia on the shoulder, and said,
"Insomnia is bad for girls' skin. Go back to sleep. Brother Carl's warship will be approved in the next two days, and we will be on the same ship with him!"
Lucia nodded, feeling strange in her heart. A ship was too big for her. A bed was enough. Gion got up when she heard the noise. She was wearing pink silk pajamas, leaning on the bed, looking at the two people at the door with a smile.
When Ginny saw that Gion also got up, she thought she was woken up by her conversation with Lucia, and apologized immediately,
"Sorry, Gion, I disturbed your rest."
After two years of getting along, there was no gap between Ginny and Gion that existed when they first met, and Ginny is not a person who holds grudges.
Gion smiled and said softly,
"It's okay. I've been sleeping lightly these days and often can't sleep." Lucia frowned slightly. She was indeed too relaxed these days. Gion's words were obviously meant to imply something. It was likely that she knew that she went out in the middle of the night.
But one thing was certain: Gion couldn't have seen what she did with the young master. She couldn't have avoided the young master's perception.
Thinking of this, Lucia felt relieved. She pretended not to hear it, quietly returned to her bed, and lay down. After saying good night, she closed her eyes.
Gion shrugged. Ginny looked at the two of them in confusion, then looked at Jessica, who was still sleeping, and muttered,
"Everyone is so weird..."
The next day, the Headquarters approved warships for all graduates with a rank of Commodore or above.
As a Commodore, Lucia could naturally have her own warship, but she chose to become Carl's adjutant and was on the same ship with Carl.
Ginny and Jessica also boarded Carl's ship.
Carl, Akainu, and Borsalino were assigned to G1, G2, and G3 branches respectively as base chiefs there.
These three branches are all located in the Grand Line, which is completely different from the Naval branches in the four seas.
And these three branches are also located in seas with extremely difficult security. In recent years, various pirate forces often appear here.
Among them, the G1 branch where Carl is located is the most important. It can be said to be the most solid line of defense behind the Headquarters.
In wartime, it can also support the Headquarters in the shortest time.
The Headquarters gave the position of G1 branch base chief to Carl, which shows that he is highly recognized for his strength.
At the Headquarters' port, Carl stood on the bow of the warship, with Ginny and Lucia standing on his left and right.
With a loud whistle, the warship slowly sailed out of Marineford. Zephyr raised his head, took a sip of sherry wine.
"The world has been watching..."
