Chapter 28 Is the shameless senior actually so strong?
Because of the shooting assessment and the artillery assessment, Wood and Gion had a lot of contacts.
Gion is a very competitive person. After he was completely defeated by Wood in both shooting and artillery performance, Gion went out of his way to get to know Wood.
For ordinary people, it may be difficult to obtain Wood's detailed information, but for Gion, this is not too difficult.
Lieutenant General He is not only the lieutenant general of the Navy Headquarters, but also the "big staff officer" of the entire navy. He is one of the few senior generals with real power.
The relationship between Gion and Tsuru, although there is a big age difference between them, is as close as sisters.
Through Crane's help, Gion also obtained extremely detailed information about Wood and gained a better understanding of the man in front of her.
Wood was born on Hongye Island in the first half of the Grand Line. His experiences before the age of 15 were ordinary, or not much different from those of ordinary teenagers.
However, when he was 15 years old, he killed a group of pirates who came to the island, and he was out of control from then on.
When he was 15 to 16 years old, a total of eight pirate groups landed on Hongye Island, five of which were completely wiped out by him, and the remaining three pirate groups also fled because their captain was killed.
Before coming to the Navy Headquarters, he single-handedly slaughtered half of the Iron Arm Pirates and killed the captain of the Iron Arm Pirates who had a bounty of 20 million Baileys on his head.
On Hongye Island, Wood has an excellent reputation. Not only is he widely loved by the islanders, he is even called the "Guardian of Hongye Island". The residents of the island also agree that he is a good boy.
When he came to the Navy Headquarters, he faced the pressure of the naval hero Lieutenant General Garp, and won the praise of Lieutenant General Garp and General Zefa in terms of his will and strength.
After seeing the information about Wood in his hand, Gion was undoubtedly shocked.
Because the Wood in the intelligence was so different from the Wood she knew.
Wood in the intelligence department has excellent talents. Whether it is his will or his character, at his age, he can only be described as excellent.
But what about the Wood that Gion knew? Not to mention his mediocre grades, he was also extremely timid and afraid of getting into trouble. As for his character, even if he had no moral character, it would be a bit high to think highly of him!
The gap between the intelligence and the actual situation was so big that Gion even thought that he had got the wrong person.
However, in the entire naval academy, there is only one guy named Wood who matches his age.
Obviously, it is impossible for a person to have two sides, either the other person has a split personality, or the other person is deliberately pretending.
Wood has lived on Hongye Island for more than ten years, and his personality has not changed much during this period. It was only after he arrived at the Navy Headquarters that he became what he is now.
Then things are not difficult to understand. Wood's mediocre achievements and his wicked character were all deliberately created by him.
Gion didn't know why Wood did this, but she also knew that everyone had their own secrets. She would not deliberately ask Wood anything, as long as Wood's nature was not bad.
In order to confirm the accuracy of the intelligence, Gion had even secretly tested Wood several times. The opponent's physical strength, reaction and speed were unexpectedly strong.
And as a "swordsman", even though Wood's aura was perfectly hidden, Gion could still vaguely feel the cold light entering the sheath from Wood.
When Gion met Wood for the first time, it was not unreasonable for him to regard him as a rival.
Although Wood's shooting performance was not the best at the beginning, Gion still kept an eye on Wood. Thinking about it now, it was probably because of the aura on Wood's body.
A "swordsman" meets another "swordsman". No matter how perfectly one of them hides, the feeling of meeting his opponent is unmistakable.
Gion didn't know Wood's reason for hiding his strength, but she felt that as long as Wood was still in the Naval Academy, they would always have a chance to fight against each other in the future.
After all, the intensive training for naval officers includes practical courses. No matter how deeply Wood hides himself, he will be sure to reveal his true strength.
Gion thought so at first, but a year later, even in the final assessment, Wood still only received mediocre results, and had already submitted his graduation application, preparing to become an ordinary
As a naval soldier, Gion finally couldn’t sit still!
According to her original idea, Wood should at least show some strength in the final assessment and eventually become an elite and be retained.
However, this guy obviously has such great strength, but he actually chooses to be a naval soldier without any ambition!
The expected showdown between the "swordsmen" has not yet come, so Gion will naturally not let Wood become a deserter, and she also thinks that with Wood's strength, it is too humiliating to become an ordinary naval soldier, so she turned this man into a deserter.
He told He about the matter and asked for his help.
This is also the reason why the former naval colonel said that he would receive notices from the two bosses Zefa and He at the same time, asking them to keep Wood.
"Gion-san thinks too highly of me... The three people lying over there all have much better grades than me.
If it is compared to shooting or shelling, I am still a little more confident.
But if it’s a physical fight, for a soft-legged shrimp like me, let alone the three of them, even if it’s a one-on-one duel, my chances of winning are not great.”
Hearing what Wood said, Gion showed a look of disdain. With Wood's level of shooting and breaking, he actually had the nerve to say he was quite confident.
"You don't need to pretend to be a harmless little white rabbit in front of me. If you don't have that strength, I won't go out of your way to ask someone to keep you here..."
"It turns out it's you! I said that based on my assessment results, I have nothing to do with the so-called elites. Why was I retained? It turns out it was you.
We all have no grievances in the past and no grievances today. I just want to be a navy soldier. Why the hell do you want to harm me!"
After hearing what Gion said, Wood, who had an innocent expression on his face, suddenly showed a look of confusion and annoyance. The emotional problem was not with Zefa, but with Gion.
"Because I haven't defeated you yet, and you are actually very strong. You have killed a pirate with a bounty of 20 million before entering the naval academy.
With such qualifications, even if I don't intervene, do you think Admiral Zefa will let you become an ordinary naval soldier?"
He does not mean that.
When he heard what Gion said, Wood's expression had not changed much, but the two little ones on the side looked at Wood in shock.
Tina aside, Smoker, who was bruised and swollen at the moment, looked at Wood in front of him with an expression of disbelief, because he really couldn't believe that such a shameless person could actually be such an awesome being.
