At Karp's gesture of raising his head, Wood looked behind him in confusion.
And the scene he saw before him finally made Wood know why Garp said that before.
Before Garp tested Wood, there were many people standing behind him, many of whom were naval officers who went to sea with Zefa this time.
Among them, Major General Kadalu has the highest military rank among them, and is also the one closest to Wood.
As a rear admiral of the navy, although Kadaru's strength is far different from Garp's, he is still at a certain level.
If it were a fight, Kadalu would definitely have no chance of winning, but if it was just a breath pressure, Garp's aura did not have much impact on Kadalu, and the opponent was standing there with a normal expression.
Except for Rear Admiral Kadaru, the other navy petty officers were not as relaxed as he was.
Although Garp is not serious, naval heroes are not just shouting, and being able to force the Pirate King into desperate situations many times is definitely not an ordinary person.
The school-level naval admirals could barely keep their standing posture at this moment, but their auras were also quite disordered. It was obvious that it was not easy for them to resist such murderous intent.
As for the lieutenant-level naval admirals, their condition was similar to that of Wood at the moment. They were all slumped on the ground and gasping for air.
When he saw Wood turning to look at them, one of the captains also wanted to stand up reluctantly in order not to embarrass the recruits.
However, as soon as he managed to straighten his body, his feet were already bent down, and the latter fell to the ground again.
This is true for navy captains, so sergeants and ordinary soldiers are naturally even more miserable.
However, they don't know whether they have been embarrassed or not, because they have all fallen into a coma.
Comparing the two, Wood also understood that Karp would be satisfied with his results.
Wood is still a new recruit, but in terms of willpower alone, he is already comparable to a captain at the Navy headquarters. Even because of the distance, Wood is even better.
If you still say that you are not good enough, then you are not looking down upon other captain-level non-commissioned officers.
Because of Karp's personal behavior, the induction ceremony for this year's navy recruits can be described as unique.
But a certain young man who originally planned to keep a low profile turned out to be the most handsome boy among the new recruits.
Gold will shine wherever it goes, and the same is true if a person is too handsome.
Wood had just received his freshman uniform from the Resources Department, and then found his assigned room.
The new recruits who have just been recruited from various places will not be directly incorporated into the navy's queue. Instead, they need to be gathered together for several years of systematic training.
Wood received a total of three sets of clothes, all of which were white with blue edges, not much different from ordinary navy clothes.
As a glorious navy recruit, these three sets of clothes will accompany him for several years.
Because they are miscellaneous fish, they do not have the right to wear special clothing. The uniform with white background and blue edges is standard. The regulations of the Naval Academy also indicate that unless it is a daily holiday, you must wear this suit regardless of daily operations or training.
.
Don't ask how many years the three sets of clothes will last. Wood has already asked the Department of Resources. If the clothes are damaged, he can buy them out of his own pocket.
But Wood had also learned about the price. It was quite expensive. Judging from the subsidy they received as freshmen, they could barely afford one piece a month.
Looking at the standard miscellaneous fish costumes in the series in his hand, Wood really couldn't figure out why this crap could be sold so expensively.
"Although it is the standard uniform of the navy, it was specially designed by the marshal at the time by a famous designer of the Grand Line.
Despite its simple appearance, it actually reveals a grandeur, and the fabric selection is also quite sophisticated. It is not only warm in winter and cool in summer, but the artistic content alone is as high as two or three floors..."
As if seeing the disgust on Wood's expression, the noncommissioned officer who allocated resources immediately explained the special characteristics of this dress to Wood.
From the artistic content of the clothes to the symbol of the navy, even Wood had to admire him. This guy is so unqualified to work here. If it were his previous world, this guy would be the sales champion everywhere with his eloquence.
.
Even after a wave of analysis by the other party, Wood suspected that he might have made a mistake. The one-on-one clothing that he thought before might not be as simple as imagined, so he took the initiative to buy an extra set of clothes.
The resource guy quickly took the banknotes from Wood, and then handed Wood a brand-new "double suit" uniform, with a childish expression on his face.
However, when Wood fiddled with the clothes, he couldn't find anything "not simple" about the clothes. Just when he was about to go back and discuss it with the resource guy, he found that the resource guy was saying the same thing to a new recruit.
lines.
Then that buddy got mad and actually spent all his assets and bought ten sets of clothes with a lot of money.
"Yes, it seems that your vision is indeed vicious. You actually bought so many clothes that symbolize the navy. This shows how strong your sense of belonging to the navy is.
I am optimistic about you, maybe in ten years, you will be the next admiral."
A smiling face sent away the excited recruits who were leaving with a lot of clothes in their hands. When the resource guy saw Wood returning, his expression suddenly fell.
"These navy costumes are specially customized and once sold, they are non-returnable!"
The Naval Academy has been around for a long time, and Garp, Sengoku, and Zefa were all students who graduated here.
Most navy soldiers were just ordinary people when they first joined, and the navy headquarters would naturally not allow them to fight against vicious pirates.
If the navy is too weak when fighting pirates, it will only affect the navy's own reputation and increase the arrogance of the pirates.
Moreover, the navy without training is basically free of charge when it comes to fighting with the pirates who are making waves on the sea, and it is impossible to carry out the so-called justice.
Moreover, a too high casualty rate will not only affect the majesty of the navy, but also cause ordinary people to think that this is a job with a very high mortality rate. People who join the navy in the future will definitely be affected as well.
After Zefa retired from the front line, he currently serves as the chief instructor of the Naval Academy.
Akainu and Kizaru are the first students of Zefa, while Qingzhi is the third student.
As for Wood's current term, it is already considered the fifth term.
