Chapter 42: Wood who was recruited back to the headquarters
Naval Headquarters, Marineland Port Office
Since the last time he came here from Hongye Island, this is the second time he has returned to the Navy Headquarters.
In half a year, the Navy Headquarters has not changed much. If anything, the number of naval forces at the port is much larger than before.
Wood's life in Impel Down City was quite happy. Wood, who had a good relationship with the management of Impel Down City, was doing well in Impel Down City.
However, just yesterday, he was still on the fourth floor training prisoners with little Sadie, but he suddenly received a contact from the captain of his team, asking him to return to the navy headquarters.
When he first heard this order, Wood's expression was obviously confused. However, Wood quickly came to his senses and looked at the squad leader, a naval captain, with excitement.
In the past, the other party said that he wanted to commend Wood's outstanding contributions to the upper management. Wood thought that the other party was just talking, but he didn't expect that the other party really didn't fool him!
Although it would be nice to stay in Impel Down City and be able to use the prisoners to train himself, Wood always felt that it was too dangerous to stay here when the Golden Lion escaped from prison, so he kept thinking of ways to leave.
I heard that this time I was called back to the Navy Headquarters, and it was under the order of the Warring States Marshal. It was obvious that I was going to be promoted!
Today, the warship escorting the prisoners came to Impel City again, and Wood also left with this ship.
Seeing the naval warships drifting away, some people in the naval squad stationed in Impel Down City were quite unhappy.
"Captain, did you really praise that guy Wood with your superiors? Why? How long has he been in Impel Down? I've been here for two years.
If there is an opportunity to get promoted and leave here, you should consider us first!"
There is not just one person who is dissatisfied with this, but several people.
Although the work in Impel Down City is easy, it is also quite tedious and boring.
Impel Down City is surrounded by windless zones, and the island is surrounded by sea kings. There are no other entertainment venues on the island, and the people in Impel Down City are either prisoners or monsters like Jailermon.
For the navy stationed here, this is not their prison. What is better for them than those prisoners is that they do not need to be punished every day and are not locked in an iron cage.
Not everyone can live in harmony with those inhuman jailer beasts like Wood, and can have fun and learn martial arts with prisoners every day.
Wood lived a fulfilling life in Impel Down City every day, but for others, life in Impel Down City was extremely numb and boring.
"Shut up, if the name Wood hadn't been mentioned above this time, I would have even forgotten that we have such a person here.
If I could really leave this hellish place by just saying a few words of praise to my superiors, I would have done it myself. Do you think I am willing to stay in such a place where a bird doesn't shit?"
Hearing the squad leader's words, other navies stationed in Impulse City were also confused. So now the question arises, if it wasn't for the squad leader's commendation, why did Wood suddenly receive a transfer order from the navy headquarters?
If they remembered correctly, Wood was a third-class private. In terms of military rank, the opponent was at best a senior cannon fodder.
For a small person of this caliber, would the Navy Marshal remember the other person's name and even transfer him back to the Navy Headquarters?
"Maybe he is a hidden big shot, or maybe he has someone in the Navy Headquarters.
Damn it, if I had known that Wood's background was so complicated, I should have gotten closer to him, and maybe I would have been promoted and left with him now."
The navy in the impel city all thought that Wood was about to be promoted and leave, and even Wood himself thought so.
However, when Wood discovered that the navy leading him was not taking him to the Admiral's office, but to the living quarters of senior generals, Wood suddenly felt a little strange.
"Brother, wasn't it Marshal Sengoku who transferred me to the Navy Headquarters?
Why are we not going to the office area of the Navy Headquarters, but going to the residence area of the Navy Admiral?"
The island of Malinfando is very large. In order to maintain the daily needs of the island's navy, there are also markets and towns here.
In addition to the tall towers and city walls of the Navy Headquarters that stand out most prominently in the center, the island actually has many residential areas.
The senior generals of the Navy Headquarters and their families settled on this island.
The navy leader who was leading the way had the same military rank as Wood. However, the other party did not take Wood to the majestic tower building, but took him to the residential area, so Wood had this question.
"Marshal Sengoku will transfer you back to the Navy Headquarters because our colonel asked you to do so.
So the person we want to meet this time is naturally our colonel, not the Warring States Marshal."
Colonel? Hearing the other party's address to his parents, Wood once again showed a question mark on his face.
Although he has been in the Navy for two or three years, and even stayed at the Navy Headquarters for a full two years.
However, Wood knew very few naval generals. Excluding Lieutenant General Garp and General Zefa, the only colonels at the Navy Headquarters he knew seemed to be the colonels who taught them basic courses.
So this time, is the other party requesting Marshal Xiang Sengoku to recall him to the Navy Headquarters?
Let's not mention whether the other side's naval captain has such a big reputation. We can ask the Warring States Marshal for help.
Wood remembered that the colonel's instructor did not think so highly of him.
Wood, who was full of doubts, was finally led to a house that looked quite decent. The navy leader who led the way reported to the door that he had been brought, saluted and left.
However, just as Wood hesitated whether he should report it and entered the house to see the other person's true face, a tall figure at the entrance slowly walked out of the house.
Because it was not duty time, the other party was not wearing a navy uniform, but a one-piece sweater.
The extremely loose clothes still can't hide the other person's proud curves, and the long legs on the lower body that are enough to dazzle people are like ivory, directly exposed to the air.
"It's you! Only half a year has passed, and you have become a captain at the Navy Headquarters!"
Half a year is neither long nor short, but it obviously cannot make a big change in a person's appearance.
So when the other party showed up, Wood thought that the other party was Gion, whom he had not seen for half a year.
Originally, he was wondering why he had been living in Impel Down City for half a year, why suddenly the Navy Headquarters thought of a little person like him, and had been having a relationship for a long time. It was Gion's fault.
