Chapter 196: Ain who decides to go to the Navy to find the truth
A simple navy and pirate would offend a lot of people, let alone a young guy like Wood.
If you want to live in Marineventor, you must be a family member of a high-ranking general, and now Wood's naval status is completely invisible.
Theoretically, it is not in compliance with the regulations for Stia and Ain to move to Marineland.
But with the endorsement of the two big men, Zefa the Blackman and Garp, the naval hero, and the nod from the Warring States Marshal, this matter should not be too problematic.
"Let's go to the Marine Headquarters, Marinefando. Can I join the Navy?"
Ain tried to go to the Navy Headquarters through the local Navy branch several times before, but to no avail.
Now that she heard that Garp could take them to the navy headquarters, Ain immediately became interested.
Although she is not really an adult yet, this does not mean that she is not smart. From Garp's words and deeds, Ain can tell that the other party is not lying.
Moreover, if Garp really does something to them, Ain also believes that no one here can stop him.
Because Wood joined the Navy, Ain went out of his way to learn about the Navy's system for a while.
Garp's military rank is Vice Admiral. Generally, people who reach this position can almost walk sideways in the first half of the Grand Line.
As far as the naval branch near Hongye Island is concerned, the highest officer is just a naval colonel, and a branch captain of this level can only be a lieutenant colonel at the naval headquarters.
Garp was overjoyed when he heard Ain asked if he could become a navy man.
Originally, he was still thinking that because of Boy Wood's incident, it would be quite difficult to persuade a talented girl like Ain to join the navy.
Who knew that before he even brought it up, the girl had already taken the initiative to express her desire to join the navy.
The idea that Ain would want to join the navy just came up.
She wanted to go to the Navy Headquarters before, just to ask the so-called Navy Marshal what her brother Wood had done wrong.
But from General Zephyr taking them to live in Marineland, to Garp's attitude towards them, all of this made Ain feel a little strange.
As a student of General Zefa, Brother Wood betrayed the navy. Shouldn't General Zefa regard this as a shame? Why would he worry about the safety of Brother Wood's family instead?
And as Garp is a marine, even if they didn't do anything bad but were implicated because of Brother Wood's identity as a pirate, the other party wouldn't be so polite to them, right?
Moreover, it is obvious that Brother Wood is now a pirate, but the Lieutenant General in front of him seems to have quite a sense of intimacy when he calls Brother Wood.
Everything made Ain feel a little inconsistent, and she even believed that Brother Wood would suddenly become a pirate and commit a series of "bad things", and there must be some hidden secrets in it.
I am just a nobody now. If I ask the other party directly, no one will tell me the answer.
So if this is the case, the answers to all questions can only be found by yourself!
Since you can go to the Navy Headquarters, you might as well become a member of the Navy Headquarters and then slowly climb up the ranks.
One day, I will definitely be able to find out the truth about Brother Wood's betrayal of the Navy!
"If you want to join the navy, in addition to passing the assessment during the specific recruitment time every year, joining at other times requires the recommendation of a naval general.
Little girl, if you want to join the navy, it’s no problem. I can be your recommender.
But in exchange, are you, a girl, interested in becoming my student?"
From the courage shown by Ain before to his agility later, it was clear that Garp also took a liking to this outstanding naval prospect in front of him.
As the Vice Admiral of the Navy Headquarters, and having pushed Roger into desperate situations many times, Garp, who is known as the "Naval Hero", thinks that he has some reputation on the sea, so he accepted a civilian girl as his student.
It's more than enough.
However, who knows is that the title of "Naval Hero" does not seem to be used by the girl.
Ain politely rejected Garp's idea of accepting a disciple, and said that she wanted to be a student of General Zefa because he was the teacher of her most admired brother.
If Ain wants to investigate the truth behind Wood's betrayal of the navy, Zefa, as Wood's teacher, must not be able to avoid it.
Not only did the other party not hate the student Wood who became a pirate, but he also wanted to protect his family. Such an attitude was very strange.
So Ain believed that General Zefa must know something.
In order to understand this information, Ai Yin believed that becoming the opponent's student was the fastest way.
It is undeniable that Lieutenant General Garp in front of him may know something, but he is full of uncertainties.
Ain was still weighing gains and losses, while Garp was surrounded by an invisible low pressure.
He never thought that he, Garp, would be so unprepared. He originally thought that he could get ahead of Zefa, but who knew that they still chose Zefa instead of him.
In terms of strength, Garp admitted that Zefa was indeed a rare strong man, but if it were a head-on confrontation, Garp felt that he would have a better chance of winning.
As for the military rank...well, although he Garp is only a lieutenant general, he can guarantee that he Garp will definitely get through in the navy headquarters faster than Zefa.
What's more, Tazefa has a lot of students, and Takapu has accepted formal students so far. Comparing the two, no matter how you look at it, Takapu has a better future.
Garp's earnest persuasion was not because he cared much about the student Ai Yin's problem, but because Garp personally came to the door and actually couldn't win over Zefa who was far away in the headquarters, which made him feel a little embarrassed.
However, it is a pity that Ain seems to be determined to become Zefa's student like her brother Wood, which makes Garp feel quite helpless.
I thought I could get there first, but I didn't expect that I ended up becoming an errand boy. I ran a long distance for free and helped Zefa find another student with good qualifications.
Garp was in a bad mood. After returning to his hometown of Donghai Windmill Village, he had nowhere to vent his anger and directly trained his two grandsons, Luffy and Ace.
Garp had great expectations for Luffy and Ace. Considering the blood they had left in them, Garp was certain that these two brats would become strong men on the sea in the future.
When he returned to Windmill Village this time, Garp actually wanted to take Ace and Luffy back to Marinefando, and then train them step by step into excellent marines.
But the identities of Ace and Luffy are too sensitive.
One is the orphan of Pirate King Roger, and the other is the son of the leader of the Revolutionary Army. If these two children go to Marinefando, Garp is not confident that he can save them.
