Pirate: This Marine has two Rinnegan.

"Charlize, has Uchiha Chika come by? What was her attitude?"

Upon hearing this voice, Charlia straightened her clothes, stood up, and said calmly,

"He performed very well, and I am very satisfied with him!"

"Huh? Didn't he kill you? Did he threaten you?"

"No!

"They were just a few disobedient dogs," Colonel Chiga said, not only expressing his apology but also promising to be my bodyguard next time and protect my safety.

"Oh? That's quite a guy. Very well, we understand."

After hanging up the Den Den Mushi, Charlia patted her chest. The matter was over, but why did she have such a strange feeling?

Chapter 61 Conferment of Brigadier General Rank

Area 66, Sabaody Archipelago, within the naval base

Whoosh! Chika and Kalifa appeared in the office. As soon as they arrived, Chika began grumbling.

"Is Charlia out of her mind? Are all Celestial Dragons like this?"

Kalifa stood silently behind Chiga, her gaze towards him somewhat strange. She had noticed something, but she wasn't sure, so she remained silent.

Suddenly, the Den Den Mushi on the table started humming.

Chiga answered the call casually, and Sengoku's voice came through.

"Is that Chiga? What did you do tonight that even the Five Elders came to talk to me about you? They said you've been very diligent lately, and that your rank is too low?"

Chiga was also momentarily stunned. "I've been dutiful all this time?" Did he mean that the Super Shinra Tensei and the Heavenly Meteor destroyed almost an entire area of ​​Sabaody, or that he slapped Charlia hard tonight?

"I only met a Celestial Dragon named Charlia, nothing else."

"What? You mean Charlene from the Rothwald family?"

"Yes."

Sengoku remained silent for a while on the other end of the Den Den Mushi. He knew about the Rothwald family; they were a typical Celestial Dragon, possessing all the vices that Celestial Dragons had.

As the daughter of Saint Rozwald, the head of the Rozwald family, Charlia has always looked down on other races.

Chiga met with this person once, and the Five Elders informed him that Chiga would be rewarded. He didn't believe that the two were unrelated.

However, the outcome was ultimately good. The faster Chiga was promoted, the more openly he could delegate authority to him. The Navy was destined to belong to young people like Chiga in the future.

"Alright, then go back to Naval Headquarters tomorrow. I'm going to confer upon you the rank of Commodore. You can come and attend the conferment ceremony."

"Yes, I understand."

After hanging up the phone, Chiga looked up and found that his secretary, Kalifa, was looking at him with a strange gaze.

Looking down at herself and confirming there was nothing wrong, Qianhe asked in confusion,

"What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?"

Kalifa shook her head helplessly, indicating that it was nothing.

Yeah, my boss, you went out tonight and slapped some big shot across the face, and then you came back and got a reward? That's just unbelievable, isn't it?

Chiga rubbed his temples, his gaze falling on the box containing the Ashura Fruit on the table, only then remembering that he still had such a fruit.

To leave such a Mythical Zoan-type Devil Fruit here for a whole day and night, one must be incredibly careless.

Reaching out and opening the box, the fruit inside was revealed—a golden, mushroom-shaped fruit, except that this mushroom had three heads, making it look rather strange.

Kalifa walked over to Chiga, curiously examining the fruit, and asked,

"Boss, would you like to eat this fruit?"

Chiga nodded. After all, it was a mythical beast, which perfectly met his requirements.

This time, without avoiding Kalifa, Chiga reached out and patted the mushroom head in the middle of the fruit, absorbing it directly using the Hungry Ghost Path.

A short while later, the energy absorption was complete, and an ordinary mushroom appeared on the table.

Kalifa covered her mouth as she watched this amazing scene unfold before her, thinking to herself, "No wonder he's the boss; the things that happen to him are always so strange."

Chiga closed her eyes to feel the power she had just gained. When she opened her eyes again, her right eye had a fourth tomoe.

Kalifa also noticed the change in Chiga's right eye and asked curiously,

"Boss, are those symbols you see the result of absorbing Devil Fruits?"

"She truly is my excellent secretary, so intelligent!"

"Boss, what you're doing... never mind, do these four patterns mean you've absorbed four Devil Fruits? You absorbed the Gravity Fruit too, right?"

"Yes, that's why I need a Devil Fruit, but don't worry, I'll find you a suitable one later."

Nodding, Kalifa leaned closer to Chiga and stopped talking. To be honest, whether or not she had a Devil Fruit was no longer important to her. All she wanted now was to be a good secretary to Chiga.

……

The next day, on Tsuru's warship, just like when they went to the Sabaody Archipelago, Chiga was leisurely basking in the sun with her head resting on Gion's lap.

Gion gently stroked Chiga's hair, a soft smile on her pretty face, quietly watching Chiga resting her head on her lap.

Suddenly, Chiga opened his eyes, and his Rinnegan shone with a divine light, captivating Gion.

With a slight smile, Chiga reached out and patted the spider tattoo on Gion's thigh, saying,

"What's wrong? Haven't you seen enough yet?"

"No, I really want to keep watching like this."

With a smile, Qianhe stood up, stretched, and turned to say,

"When I become a general, I'll transfer you to my ship so you can see me every day. I'll see if you can get tired of it."

Gion also stood up, walked over to Chiga, straightened Chiga's slightly wrinkled naval uniform, and said with a smile,

"Alright, I'll wait for the day you become a general, but don't keep me waiting too long."

"Don't worry, that day is not far away."

……

Inside the Admiral's office,

Boom boom boom!

"Come in."

The door opened, and Chiga walked in with one hand in her pocket. Seeing Sengoku engrossed in his documents, she smiled and said...

"Long time no see, Warring States Marshal."

As Chiga spent more and more time in the Navy, his relationship with Sengoku and others became very close, and they no longer needed to be overly polite when speaking to each other.

"It's Chiga. Come here, here are your brigadier general epaulets and uniform."

Sengoku pushed a small box and a coat with the word "Justice" on the back to Chiga.

Without giving the box containing the epaulets much attention, Chiga's gaze was drawn to the coat.

I believe most people who have watched One Piece like the Marine officers' coats with the "Justice" print on them, right? Wearing that is like the Fourth Hokage wearing his divine robes—it's just one word: cool!

Chiga had been envious of the one Zephyr wore, and now she could finally wear it herself.

Without hesitation, he grabbed the shoulders of the coat with both hands and pulled hard.

Wow!

Chiga put on the navy coat, and with her long black hair and height of over two meters, she exuded a sacred and majestic aura.

Sengoku was stunned for a moment, then, regaining his senses, he thought with a touch of shamelessness,

"He's pretty handsome, but not quite as handsome as I was back then. He's only about ten times more handsome than Garp!"

Chiga shook his body vigorously and found that the clothes were really sturdy. No wonder the Marines were jumping around during the Marineford War and their cloaks didn't fly away.

After the experience, Chiga remembered that she should visit Professor Zephyr when she returned to headquarters. He was genuinely good to her, and Chiga never doubted that.

Thinking of this, Qianhe asked,

"Marshal Sengoku, is Teacher Zephyr still in the training camp? I'd like to go see him."

Hearing this, Sengoku looked at Chiga with satisfaction. This was one of the reasons why he thought so highly of Chiga. People who know how to be grateful and respect their teachers are always well-liked.

However, Sengoku waved his hand and said, "This time, Chiga's good intentions may be in vain."

"No need. This year's trainees are training hard, and Zefa is preparing to take them out to sea for drills ahead of schedule. They have already set off."

"what?!"

Chapter 62: History That Has Not Changed?

Sengoku didn't know why Chiga had such a big reaction after hearing the news of Zephyr's departure to sea. It was just a sea exercise, was it really necessary?

However, trusting Chiga, he still asked,

"What's wrong? Is there a problem with this voyage?"

Of course there are problems, and the problems are huge.

In the Z movie, it was mentioned that when Zephyr was leading the last batch of students on a training ship, he was attacked by Whitebeard Jr. In the end, only Ain and Binz survived on the ship, and Zephyr even lost an arm.

Although history has changed and Zephyr has set sail earlier, there's no guarantee that Zephyr will still encounter Whitebeard Jr. If the outcome is good, great; but what if it's worse?

Thinking of this, Qianhe's expression worsened, and he hurriedly asked,

"Where did Professor Zephyr go?"

"I don't know the exact details, I'll ask him using a Den Den Mushi."

As he spoke, Sengoku dialed Zefu's Den Den Mushi, but after waiting for a long time, the Den Den Mushi was not answered.

This unusual situation caused Sengoku's expression to darken. He looked up at Sengoku and asked,

"What exactly happened? Chiga, do you know something?"

There was no time for further explanation, as the southeast direction was too general. However, there was no time for Chiga to think about it anymore. He directly opened the window of Sengoku's office, activated his Heavenly Dao ability, and soared into the sky.
