A week later, a large warship is about to arrive at the island where Branch 166 is located.
Rear Admiral Norris is the person in charge of this warship, and is responsible for picking up the newcomers who submitted reports from each branch. At this time, he lowered his head and looked at the documents in his hand.
"Lucal was born on Raleigh Island in the Western Sea. He enlisted in the navy in 1485. He has the ability to possess the special natural fruit Earth Fruit. He has also made numerous achievements in hunting down pirates."
"Well, this young man should be the most qualified in this batch of Xihai. Thanks to Xihai, the quality of the newcomers selected is really high. I guess I can compare it with Beihai, who only has two monster newcomers reported there. "
After reading the information, Major General Norris turned around and glanced at the group of new people behind him who also came from the West China Sea. He was nearly 50 years old and would retire soon after serving as a major general in a few more years. He saw this group of fresh energy injected into the Navy and contributing to the Navy's development. The future feels hopeful.

The warship arrived at the 166th Naval Branch Island. Norris walked to the deck and saw that the people from the 166th Branch were already waiting at the dock. The leader was Lieutenant Colonel Barlow with a big brown beard. Standing next to Lieutenant Colonel Barlow was a 2.5-meter tall man. The burly and muscular man is none other than Lukar, and finally the navymen from the 166th branch behind.
"Chief Baloji, I am Norris, who is sent by the headquarters to pick up the new people." Norris introduced
"Well, Major General Norris is too polite. I admired you for your feat of defeating the Evil Sword Pirates with a bounty of 110 million in the Grand Line a few days ago after seeing the news. This time you will personally lead the way. The team is really lucky." Barlow was still envious of Norris' military rank.
There is a huge gap in strength and status between the branch's lieutenant colonel and the headquarters' major general. Even if Barlow holds the position of base commander, they can't compare. The base commander can only barely maintain the same level.
"Major General Norris, the person next to me is Lucar, the new recruit who is going to the headquarters this time. Lucar, I haven't said hello to Major General Norris yet," Barlow introduced.
While Norris was observing Lukar, Lukar was also looking directly at Norris, completely ignoring the gap in military rank.
He is so strong. He is the strongest person I have seen in the past few years. This momentum is definitely the result of being on the battlefield and experiencing countless life and death battles.
Is such a strong person a major general? As expected, he came from the headquarters. I don’t know how many strong people there are at the headquarters, and how strong those top strong people must be.
"Major General Norris, can I challenge you? I want to see the strength of the strong men in this department."
Lukar did not say hello to Norris. He was a little excited to meet such a powerful person and directly challenged Norris.
Lieutenant Colonel Barlow was immediately startled.
"Lucal, what are you talking about! Apologize to Major General Norris quickly!"
"Major General Norris, this brat is just a brat who has never seen the world. Don't argue with him."
Norris laughed when he saw it, "Hahaha, it's so interesting. The newcomers in Xihai are really energetic. It's good to be young."
"Lucar, there is no need to compete today. There will be plenty of opportunities when we get to the headquarters. There is no need to waste time now. The group of young men on the ship are very unconvinced by you. Come on board."
Lukar nodded silently, strode onto the ship, stood on the deck, looked back at Lieutenant Colonel Barlow and the navy behind him, and saluted.
Goodbye, Navy Branch 166, my hometown.
Barlow and the sailors from Branch 166 stood up straight and returned the military salute.
Finally seeing Lukar slowly leaving, he put down his hand. Everyone's eyes revealed complicated emotions. Although Lukar caused various troubles in the 166 branch, he was from the 166 naval branch after all, and he was also the pride of the 166 branch.
This time, the monsters of Marine Branch 166 finally headed to a larger world stage.
………
Lukar followed Norris into the cabin. The internal activity area of the warship was quite large. There were already more than thirty new arms merchants from the training camp on board the cabin.
The group of navy recruits going to the training camp were all in the cabin at this time, chatting and discussing. When they saw a tall navy recruit walking in, they all turned their eyes to Lukar.
Norris turned around and left after giving instructions for free activities. Lucar found an empty table and sat down.
"This is the monster newcomer from Branch 166. He's really strong. I wonder if he's as powerful as the rumors say."
"Heh, he just looks strong. Maybe he is a strong person but a weak person."
"No, that's not the case. Lukar must have been so famous in Xihai in recent years. Branch 166 didn't have much fame at all before."
"Hmph, I just got lucky and ate a devil fruit."
The toughness of the Xihai side is clearly reflected in this group of recruits.
Lukar's reputation over the years, coupled with the news that Lukar was secretly rumored to be the strongest among the new recruits in the West Sea, left few convinced.
"You are Lukar, right? I am Walker from the 89th Naval Branch in the West Sea. I have wanted to meet you and show you some signs for a long time?"
Lukar heard the voice behind him and looked back, seeing a tall and strong man also wearing a navy uniform.
This man has a burly build similar to that of Lucar, but is almost three meters tall and has a beard. If he didn't look relatively young, he would have been thought to be over thirty years old.
"I'm not interested, just go and play by yourself."
Lukar was completely uninterested in this and turned back to refuse.
What I want to find are the truly strong men in the sea. Bullying these young people of the same age is nothing. As a man of two generations, Lukar still has a self-awareness of his actual age.
"Playing? I just want to see why you say this."
Walker is a Grizzly Fruit user and is also the top powerhouse in Branch 89. He is very confident in his own strength.
Seeing Lukar's attitude of ignoring him, a surge of anger surged up in his heart, and he directly grabbed Lukar's shoulder.
"Hey, that guy Walker has taken action. There's something good to see."
"Walker's strength can be ranked among the top three among the newcomers who have arrived. He can take action just in time to see how strong the rumored West Sea monster is."
The other recruits around him became excited when they saw the conflict, and they were all ready to watch the show.
Lukar felt the movement coming from behind, his eyes focused, and a light yellow power emitted from his body and wrapped around the outer layer of his body.
Earth armor!
When Walker's hand was about to touch Lukar's body, a layer of light yellow film suddenly appeared and directly blocked Walker's hand.
"what."
Seeing the membrane in front of him, Walker knew that Lukar had taken action, but Lukar still did not look back at him, and the anger in his heart became even greater.
"Okay, I have the guts."
Walker glanced at everyone, his eyes full of ridicule. Walker, who was originally so good-looking, couldn't help it anymore. His nearly 3-meter tall figure began to swell, the muscles on his body became more prominent, and gray hair began to grow on his body.
Walker, who had transformed into an evolved orc, waved his hand to grab Lukar again, directly holding onto the layer of earth armor attached to Lukar.
This time was different from the last time I tried it. This time I used all my strength to pinch it, intending to crush the armor directly.
The animal devil fruit has greatly improved Walker's body. The power of the Bear Fruit-Grizzly Bear form fruit has greatly improved the strength of his hands. Walker's palms at this time can crush steel at will.
This time the earth armor did not directly defend against Walker's attack like last time. Only a subtle clicking sound was heard, and a crack appeared on the earth armor.
"Um?"
Luker himself did not expect that there would be someone among the newbies who could break through his layer of earth armor. These were the first abilities he developed when he first obtained the Devil Fruit and were the most defensive moves.
However, this time we were on a ship. We could not stand on land and activate the power of the earth to replenish it at any time. We relied on our own demonic power to activate it, so the solidity and durability were reduced.
It seems that I am a little too conceited. There are so many strong people in this world. Even the younger generation in Xihai have this kind of power.
When the armor was about to be broken, Lukar stopped the messy thoughts in his mind and stood up against Walker's strength.
"You have good strength, let's have a fight."
