"That's hard to say." Ryan doesn't have a fixed schedule and usually travels all over the world.
"All right."……
After a brief stop and a day of rest, the Irons set sail again the next day.
The journey passed through several islands, including Rogge Town.
Many of the more famous pirates in the East Blue were all dealt with by Ace, Sabo, and Luffy before they entered the Grand Line.
Previously, Rein had told Garp via Den Den Mushi that Luffy would be joining the Marines!
When they met again at Navy Headquarters, Garp wasn't as relentless in his pursuit, mainly because he couldn't catch up.
The Red-Haired Pirates were even stranger; as they chased after them, Rein's ship still hadn't disappeared.
They disappeared first!
Clearly, after his outburst, the red-haired man accepted reality!
Or rather, this was the reality he was setting out to be, just a typical trait of a doting father.
This made him hesitate to make a decision during his first conversation with Ryan!
The three brothers were originally on different warships and had little opportunity to communicate!
Until one day, Luffy defeated a great pirate with a bounty of 40 million Berries!
He couldn't wait to pick up the Den Den Mushi and show it off to Ace Sabo.
At that time, Luffy said: "Ace, Sabo, the highest bounty of the pirates you defeated was 37 million Berries, right? I've already surpassed you! I just defeated one with 40 million Berries!"
"What?!" Upon hearing this, Sabo and Ace's competitive spirit was instantly ignited to its fullest extent!
He then immediately went to find Lieutenant General Garp.
"Grandpa, let's hurry to the Grand Line! I've heard there are many powerful pirates there!"
"But Rein and his crew's ship is already in the waters ahead! Don't you want to see Luffy anymore?" Vice Admiral Garp asked, looking puzzled.
Ace: "Now is not the time to see Luffy!"
Sabo: "That's right!!"
"But……"
"No buts, we want to become an excellent navy as soon as possible!!!"
"Huh?! Hahahaha!!! Alright, alright! Then let's head into the Grand Line first!" Anyway, once they catch up, if Renn wants to run, there's nothing he can do!
Look at the determined looks on Ace and Sabo's faces!
Garp no longer hesitated!
"Change course and head towards the Grand Line!!!" Garp declared with great enthusiasm.
Garp, who never uses a sword, even drew one of his subordinates' swords and pointed it diagonally at the sky.
With a self-satisfied expression, she said, "As expected, my education wasn't in vain, it was useful!! Waaah!!"
……
[Garp #1: All of you, shut up! I know what you're thinking. You want to call me stupid, right? Yeah, I admit it. So what if I'm stupid? I'm proud of my stupidity. After all, I'm their grandfather. Do any of you have a Marine Admiral's grandson? No! So you have no right to talk to me!!]
[Whitebeard #1: Why is Garp getting so worked up? We haven't even said anything yet!]
[Number 1 Sengoku: Exactly!]
[Garp #2: The other one said it well! Rather than feeling ashamed, it's better to strike first. That's my style, hahaha!!]
At this point, the other powerful figures were truly embarrassed to speak.
After all, no matter what, it's a fact that Garp has the grandson of a Marine Admiral!
Not many people are qualified to be compared to Garp!
[Raine: You've gotten smarter, huh? Could it be that the two Garps are sharing a brain right now?]
……
And it was from this moment that the three brothers began to compete with each other.
Just two days later, Ace triumphantly dialed the Den Den Mushi on the Rein warship.
He specifically asked Luffy to answer the phone: "Hey Luffy, I just accidentally captured a pirate with a bounty of 45 million. Grandpa just promoted me to Private First Class. You haven't captured an even stronger one yet, have you?"
"What?! Ace, you're already a private first class? That's amazing! Damn it, I'm still a private third class!" Luffy was shocked.
As long as they are not naval officers of the rank of vice admiral or above!
It would not require the consent of the Five Elders of the World Government.
Naval marshals and naval inspectors can directly promote marines to vice admirals or lower ranks.
However, once you reach the rank of lieutenant general, you need to submit a report to the Five Elders.
However, the decision-making power still rests with the Navy, especially with the Inspector General of the Navy.
The marshal was primarily responsible for various military operations!
A lieutenant general can then freely promote officers below the rank of general.
However, to avoid gossip, Garp and Rein made Ace, Sabo, Luffy, and the others start from the lowest rank of private.
After all, the navy adopts a merit-based promotion system.
Those who achieve merit in battle will be promoted very quickly!
After the third, second, and first class ranks, there are sergeant-level officers such as corporal, sergeant, and sergeant major. Then there are lieutenant, colonel, and general ranks! Each of these ranks is further divided into four levels: junior, middle, and senior.
Within days of joining the Navy, one can rise from private third class to private first class.
That's already very fast! Of course, the real credit goes far beyond that.
But everything must be done step by step, and the feelings of other naval personnel must be considered.
"Oh, right, I forgot to tell you, Sabo defeated a pirate with a bounty of 50 million Berries. He's really lucky; he's now a corporal in the Marines!!"
"I'll surpass you all in no time, damn it!" Luffy couldn't stand this provocation!
He angrily slammed down the Den Den Mushi! Then he found Rein: "Brother Rein, when are we going to enter the Grand Line? I want a promotion too, and I want to defeat the powerful pirates!"
"It'll be here soon." Ryan had been listening the whole time!
I don't know what Luffy is angry about. Didn't you brag to Ace and Sabo first?
However, it's good that they're so motivated.
[Garp #2: Damn it, why don't I have a grandson like that?!]
[Luffy #2: Grandpa, are you senile? You have grandsons!]
[Garp #2: Get lost! I don't have an unfilial pirate grandson like you!!]
Comparing yourself to others will only make you miserable!
Looking at Luffy from another world, he's so enthusiastic about becoming a Marine!
Number 2 Garp was looking at his pirate grandson with utter disgust and disgust!
……
Time flies, and winter has arrived in the blink of an eye.
Instead of rushing, they searched for the pirate crew along multiple routes of the Grand Line!
At this time, Ace, Sabo, Luffy, and the others had not yet arrived at Marine Headquarters.
But their deeds are already circulating at Navy Headquarters!
The three young marines, all Garp's grandsons, were formed in just a few months.
They defeated many powerful pirate crews in succession.
Even a guy named Ace, who was only ten years old, had already killed a pirate with a bounty of 110 million Berries.
He's been promoted to Navy Lieutenant Commander! If it weren't for his young age!
Fearing he might not be able to command the army in battle, his rank needs to be raised.
The other two are not weak either; Sabo defeated a pirate captain with a net worth of 9500 million Berries!
His current rank is also major. Luffy defeated a great pirate with a bounty of 7200 million!
He's now a lieutenant major!
Three little monsters from one family, although many people questioned whether these guys were born with connections!
But they knew Lieutenant General Garp; he would never engage in such bureaucratic practices.
On this day, Garp and Rain's ships are about to arrive at Navy Headquarters!
At the port, a large crowd had gathered, with many sailors eager to see what kind of kid he was!
A pirate who can frequently collect bounties of tens of millions.
"Sakazuki, is the Navy this corrupt now? The oldest is only ten years old, and any one of them has already accomplished tasks that ordinary field-grade officers cannot. Some of them, even if a rear admiral were to take action, might not be able to complete," Kizaru remarked from the crowd.
Firstly, to welcome Rein, and secondly, out of curiosity, to see Garp's three grandsons.
