Soon, the two arrived at the dining hall of the cleaning department.
After finishing the meal, Yeyin cleaned up the area, then followed Carotel to visit Navy Headquarters.
Actually, the cleaning department has quite a lot of authority.
Except for the offices and rooms of a few special individuals, which are off-limits, they are basically allowed to clean up trash in any other place.
Of course, private rooms are also off-limits.
It wasn't long before the afternoon came.
"Minister Carotel, can we go clean up the training ground now?" Yeyin asked excitedly, running up to Carotel with a happy expression.
"Uh, should we take a break first?"
"There are people assigned to clean it this afternoon…"
"No, no, it's my first day at work, I can't slack off," Yeyin said, cutting Carotel off before he could finish.
What a joke! This was his first opportunity, and picking up trash after others throw it away isn't the same.
Besides, treasures need to be discovered personally!
"By the way, are we responsible for providing our own meals?" Yeyin asked slowly.
Having eaten well while hanging out with Garp these past few days, suddenly eating the food from the cafeteria today was quite an adjustment.
"Yes, we have a special budget allocated for meals."
"I know, you might feel…"
"Here's ten million Beli, take it," Yeyin interrupted, tossing a bag over.
"Huh?" Carotel was stunned.
"As a condition, no matter where you go to clean up trash, you must take me with you," Yeyin said directly.
Carotel was confused by Yeyin's words.
Usually, people offer money to bribe their superiors in order to have an easier time. But Yeyin was asking to do more work.
"Alright… but this money…"
"I just want to eat better!" Yeyin replied calmly, pushing the bag of money back to Carotel.
"Okay, I'll make arrangements," Carotel said, taking the bag and then leading Yeyin to the training ground.
"Over here is Instructor Roger training new recruits."
"The person mainly responsible for training these new recruits is Admiral Zephyr."
Carotel explained.
"Got it."
"Wait, is that… Kuzan?"
As Yeyin scanned the training ground, he spotted a familiar face.
This guy looks like he's in his early twenties. It seems he just recently joined the training ground.
"Kuzan, where's the trash you threw away?" Yeyin walked up to Kuzan and asked, delivering his standard line.
"The trash I threw away?"
"I never throw away trash," Kuzan replied, a bit puzzled.
Being suddenly questioned like this by a cleaning officer, Kuzan had no idea what was going on.
"I'm the cleaning officer here, so I need to clean up trash," Yeyin said. "Let's have a fight. If you lose, you have to throw some trash on the ground every day."
Yeyin wasn't just interested in picking up trash.
It wasn't every day he got to meet someone like Kuzan, who would one day become a powerful force. How could he not seize this opportunity?
Yeyin was definitely interested in fighting with Aokiji!
