Even if it did happen, they might not necessarily want to join the navy!
This is something that can't be imitated! It's something that you can only hope to experience!
Video #1 is progressing rapidly.
Haiyuan calendar year 1511.
In this year, Luffy successfully awakened Gear Second.
However, with Raine by his side, Luffy's health is often taken care of.
This made him normalize this state!
Therefore, it will basically not harm the body.
That year, the three brothers focused on honing their skills at the Navy Headquarters.
There are missions, but not many.
As it stands, the Navy Headquarters has enough powerful personnel to meet their combat needs!
During this period, Garp deserves credit for his hard work, even if he didn't achieve anything significant.
Since they were all at Marine Headquarters, Garp spent more time with Luffy and the others.
There is also enough time to train them.
Garp spends his days in laughter and boasting.
The other naval forces were incredibly envious!
After all, with three monstrous grandsons, their future achievements are bound to be astonishing!
……
Ace, Sabo, and Luffy from World 2 watched this scene unfold.
Weiwei was somewhat silent; they rarely saw their grandfather so happy!
Luffy and Ace were happy that their grandfather would visit them sometimes.
However, differences in ideas often lead to disagreements.
In the end, they got a good beating!
Then Grandpa went out to sea in a huff again!
I never imagined that after I joined the navy, my grandfather's face would light up like a blooming flower bud!
He walks with a swagger, and when he eats, he always tries to share a table with someone from the Warring States period.
The purpose of sharing tables is to create a constant Versailles-like atmosphere, and even to subtly suggest that it's time for Sengoku to get married!
It's time to have a child! That way, I might be able to see my grandchild born before I die.
At this point, many people realized that within the naval high command...
Many people are single, no matter what world they live in!
Regardless of how controversial or dark the navy's existence may be.
But there is always a group of people who are doing their best to maintain peace at sea.
To borrow what Akainu said when he refused the Five Elders' marriage proposal, it is that I will not marry and have children until the Great Pirate Era ends!
That's because many generals share this belief!
That way, the sea won't be completely dark!
Fast forward time.
In the year 1512 of the Sea Calendar, Luffy was 9 years old, while Sabo and Ace were 12!
Because these past two years have been primarily focused on studying and training.
Currently, their ranks are not particularly high: Luffy is a Navy Lieutenant Commander, and Ace is a Navy Captain!
Currently, they are all purely combat personnel! Also in this year, the East Blue's Ains Trading Company acquired an extremely rare Logia-type Devil Fruit—the Flame-Flame Fruit!
After thinking for a while, Rein decided to give the Devil Fruit to Ace!
"Remember, while Logia-type Devil Fruits are powerful and convenient, they can easily lead to dependency. Don't forget the importance of Haki and your own strength. I will be checking on you every three months!"
When Rein handed the Devil Fruit to Ace, he solemnly gave him these instructions.
"Yes!" Ace nodded in response seriously.
[Aokiji #2: I have to say, Reinhardt is really good to his students; he just gives them Logia-type Devil Fruits like that!]
[Golden Lion #2: Giving him a Devil Fruit is one thing, but with the financial resources of the Ains Merchant Guild, they surely have plenty. More importantly, he deliberately instructed and supervised Ace to ensure he wouldn't rely too much on the Flame-Flame Fruit. He did much better than Whitebeard in this regard; no wonder there's such a difference in strength between people of the same age!]
[Number 2, Locke: In the end, it was Rein who considered things more thoroughly!]
[Apu #2: I wish I had a mentor and older brother like Renn! Renn-san, are you still accepting apprentices? I'm willing to abandon evil and join the Navy!]
[Kid #2: You spineless coward, you've disgraced all pirates!]
[Apu #2: Are you out of your mind? Pirates don't have any dignity!]
[Buggy #2: If you're going to take on apprentices, I'd like to sign up too. You'll give them Logia-type Devil Fruits, right...?]
This is worth hundreds of millions of Berries!
Whether I have a master or not doesn't matter! The main thing is that I have money.
Even without a Devil Fruit, the Irons Trading Company is so big, I could easily get a decent job.
Then the wealth will come rolling in.
By the end of summer 1512, Luffy, Ace, and Sabo, who had been away from home for nearly two years, were led by Rein!
He planned to go back to his hometown, and Garp was originally going to go home with him.
But the new world has brought new circumstances, so he had no choice but to reluctantly hand over the escort task to Raine!
Although Raine is an office worker, he is, after all, the chief inspector.
His combat effectiveness is significantly stronger than that of a typical lieutenant general!
Safety is guaranteed.
And while passing through Alabasta.
The fast-forwarded video slowed down.
[Doflamingo #2: Crocodile, it seems you from another world are being targeted!]
[Crocodile #2: At this time...]
[Silver Axe #2: Do you think they can beat Crocodile at this point?]
[Number 2, Golden Lion: That depends on whether Crocodile from the other world is the same as ours! If he is, I think Crocodile is in trouble. His physical abilities back then were probably not much stronger than a vice admiral from Marine Headquarters. He relied more on the advantages and power of his Logia-type Devil Fruit to become one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea! And what's worse, these three brats have all mastered both types of Haki! If they remain arrogant and conceited, they're likely to suffer a great loss!]
……
Video #1, Alabasta coastline.
“Your strength has improved significantly in the past two years. It’s time to find you a slightly more worthy opponent. The Navy’s strongmen are good, but when you fight them, they don’t have the intention to kill you. There’s a difference. The latest intelligence shows that the pirate Crocodile is currently in this country.” Rein said, holding a piece of intelligence, looking at Luffy and his two companions.
"Reinhardt, I heard that the World Government recently wants to restart the Seven Warlords of the Sea program, hoping to use the power of pirates to suppress them. It seems that Crocodile is one of the candidates," Ace asked.
“We’ve been bringing this up before, but we didn’t really agree with it. But now, the generation of pirates influenced by Roger’s era has fully grown up, and the New World is in complete chaos! Every day, nations are being established and destroyed, and the Navy’s strength is stretched thin. So this plan has been brought up again,” Rein said calmly.
"Is it really a good thing to give pirates special privileges? If they have the right to legally plunder others, doesn't that greatly diminish justice?" Sabo frowned.
"Many pirates are big bad guys!" Luffy didn't quite agree with this system either!
"So this time you need to perform well and show the World Government that the Navy's strength has grown stronger and stronger. In just a few more years, the Navy will be fully capable of suppressing the pirates and will not need the Seven Warlords of the Sea system at all!"
“That’s right, as long as we defeat these so-called candidates for the Seven Warlords of the Sea, we can prove that they are nothing special.” Ace, Sabo, and the other two suddenly had a bright idea in their eyes.
"That's right, let's hurry up and get to the island to defeat him!!" Luffy said, rubbing his hands together excitedly.
"Okay." Renn smiled slightly.
Alabasta, with its capital Albana.
Alabasta is not currently embroiled in civil war and chaos.
Despite the harsh desert environment, the people in every city are hardworking and optimistic.
The capital city is also very well-developed, bustling and vibrant, with many ships entering the capital's port along the canals!
We are currently on a street in a no-man's-land.
A tavern suddenly exploded, sending sand flying everywhere, and a drunken, menacing voice rang out: "~ Can't you understand human language? Bring me some wine!!"
"This guy is Crocodile, the Sand Crocodile, with a bounty of 8100 million Berries!"
"What? Didn't I hear that this guy was killed after challenging Whitebeard more than ten years ago? His bounty hasn't even gone up since, how come he's here!"
"I don't know! Let's run!!"
The people in the tavern scrambled to escape.
……
But four people went against the flow of people and entered the tavern.
