Time Travel: Age of Discovery

"But see I can change geometry?"

"What's the matter?"

When Teya came to his senses, he saw a group of recruits sitting on the ground, staring at him intently, with confusion on their faces.

Only then did Teya realize that he was teaching the new recruits and that his mind had been wandering.

"The potential I just mentioned is when you train..."

After the explanation, the recruits digested his words and felt that they had learned a lot of new knowledge.

"Coach Teya, tell us a story."

"Yeah, yeah, storytelling!"

The recruits cheered.

Since Teya became the instructor, all the new recruits like his teaching method, which is free and unrestrained, like a friend and a companion, and they can learn new knowledge.

Many people had heard of Teya's deeds long ago, even before he joined the navy, by reading newspapers and joining the navy because of them.

When many new recruits first met Teya, they all thought he was a cold and strong man.

However, when I met Teya in person, I realized that he was a gentle big brother.

Teya looked at the group of young faces and couldn't help but smile.

After he made up the story once, the recruits became addicted and kept pestering him to tell it again and again.

"Okay, I'll tell you a story about a mermaid. Don't be afraid of what I'm about to say..."

The recruits were familiar with the fact that Teya always liked to tell a joke before telling a story, and they were used to it.

After all, Teya is not usually indifferent.

Two years passed quickly, and Teya sent off a group of graduating naval recruits for the first time.

Previously, due to the rapid development of combat power, the navy's combat power was interrupted, and the one-year training period seemed short, so Teya and Zefa discussed changing the original one-year system to two years.

Finally, the Navy accepted and set a two-year training period.

This batch of sailors are the first to undergo two years of training, and their foundation is more solid than that of previous recruits.

Any one of them would be considered an elite navy elsewhere and have outstanding physical skills, all thanks to Lai Teya.

However, after the graduation assessment, many recruits heard that they would be assigned to the naval branch and hugged Teya and cried reluctantly.

Most of them are orphans and regard Teya as their family, and Teya treats them very well.

Seeing them crying miserably, Teya wiped away his tears silently.

"It was once said that one must be resilient and not cry."

Teya shouted and everyone stopped crying, but they still looked at Teya with affection.

Teya felt inwardly that these people were talented in fighting, but their minds were too fragile. After all, they were just children, and some of them were even younger than he was when he joined the navy.

Teya does not allow for excessive sentimentality or emotional investment as new recruits arrive one after another.

At this moment, he fully understood the saying "the camp is permanent, but the soldiers are transient", and it was indeed true.

Only by standing there can you appreciate the scenery there.

A lot has happened in the past two years, but nothing has attracted as much attention as the recent events.

Roger's pirate group arrived at Raftel, dominated the Grand Line, and Roger became the "Pirate King"!

"It's 1497... I've been here for seven years."

Teya leaned back in her chair and whispered.

Seven years is enough to change anyone?

Teya had no way of knowing, but he knew that he had indeed changed a lot.

The most important thing is a change in mindset.

From being impulsive at the beginning to being able to plan and handle things rationally now.

It has been twenty-two years since I came to Teya. Counting my experiences before crossing over, I am probably already thirty years old mentally.

But he didn't feel old.

Because there is still much work for him to do.

Looking out the window, Teya stood up and said, "It's time to set off."

"Where are you going?"

Zefa stood at the door with documents in hand, looking at the embarrassed Teya.

"I……"

"Never mind, there's something I need to tell you."

……

An island in the New World... "Captain? Why are you disbanding our pirate group? Is this the end of our adventure?"

The members of Roger's pirate group stared at Roger on the shore. He stood with his hands behind his back, and the sea breeze gently blew his wide cloak.

After a long while, Roger said, "It's time to put an end to this, but this matter cannot be spread to anyone else, because I still have something to finish."

Everyone fell into deep thought, only Rayleigh looked at Roger with a complicated look.

"Roger's Pirates are disbanded!"

"Haha, we should hold a banquet to commemorate this occasion."

Roger's words did not cause any response, and everyone lost their former laughter. After all, after many years of brotherhood, they were about to part ways.

Shanks, who had been taking care of Buggy since he left the ship due to illness, also rushed over. He was now mixed in the crowd, with the straw hat given by Roger covering his face, but his sadness was hard to hide.

"Cheers to Roger's Pirates."

Rayleigh raised his glass high.

"Cheers to Roger's Pirates!"

Everyone raised their glasses and shouted in unison, but many had tears in their eyes, knowing that this farewell might be forever.

Today, the world-famous Roger's pirate group quietly disbanded, Roger left the ship, and the rest disappeared.

……

The falling cherry blossoms are like a heavenly scene, with petals dancing in the air, so beautiful that it is out of this world.

"Hehehe, how does this wine taste?"

"Well, it's a fine wine indeed."

Two men were drinking under a cherry tree, with several jars of liquor scattered around, some of which had been opened and spilled on the ground.

Each of them held a red bowl, one of them looked slightly drunk and was enjoying himself.

"I was surprised to hear that you disbanded your pirate group. What are your plans?"

"Me? Haha, you're actually concerned about this. Are you here just because of the wine?"

The two were world-famous pirates, one was Roger and the other was Whitebeard.

Whitebeard didn't answer, but just poured another bowl and savored it carefully, which made Roger laugh.

"Newgate, the world calls me Gold Roger, but that is all wrong. My real name is Gold D. Roger!"

Roger took a sip of wine, looking slightly tipsy, and said to Whitebeard, "Do you know the meaning of D?"

"D? There's also someone in my family whose name has a D."

Whitebeard pondered for a moment: "Marshall D. Teach."

"Hahaha, I admire your temper!"

The two of them raised their bowls and drank, with cherry blossoms flying around them.

"I wish to give you the Eternal Compass of Raftelu as a gift to you as a friend."

"Oh? I'm not interested in that. You can keep it."

"Really? Hehehe."

Whitebeard glanced at Roger calmly, said nothing more, and concentrated on pouring wine.

The two men clinked their bowls together, the wine splashed out and mixed together, and they drank from the same pool.

……

"Promoting me to Lieutenant General? Isn't that too much?"

Teya looked at Marshal Kong with disbelief on his face.

"Indeed, you are promoted to Lieutenant General."

"Why?"

Teya has rarely gone out to sea in the past two years and has not made many military achievements. Logically, Akainu should be promoted to vice admiral, but it is not his turn.

After continued questioning, Sorimiteya explained, "Lieutenant General Uliji died heroically while on a mission in the New World. Therefore, the position of Lieutenant General is vacant. We have carefully considered you filling this position."

"Your strength is sufficient."

"Maybe it's not enough..."

Kong was too lazy to argue with Teya. The situation was urgent and Teya had to carry out the mission. The Lieutenant General appointment ceremony was omitted. Teya was concerned about this.
