One Piece: Shadow of the Navy

Cohen's eyes swept over the students.

Although he did not keep his eyes on any one person for a long time, all the students felt that Cohen was staring at them.

As a result, most of them couldn't help but lower their heads, not daring to meet his gaze. Some of them subconsciously raised their chests when his gaze swept across them, like soldiers being inspected by their superiors. greeted his gaze.

Cohen's eyes did not linger on any of the students. He simply glanced at them, then withdrew his eyes, turned around and walked back, reaching Coral and others in a few steps.

Cohen signaled to Coral, and then he returned to his original position, standing next to Qu Yuan.

After receiving Cohen's signal, Coral's eyes followed Cohen for two steps. Then, he took two steps forward and stood at the position where Cohen was speaking.

"All of them, queue."

As Coral shouted, the students standing around immediately started to move.

While the students were lining up, Shankos and others stood there, waiting for them to finish lining up.

Ke En and Zhu Yuan also stood still.

"Tsk, Cohen, that little guy just now is a talent. He has already mastered the armed color Haki. In a few years, with some training, even if he is not as strong as Shankos and the others, he should be close to them. How much."

Zhu Yuan stood with her arms folded in front of her chest. She suddenly hit Cohen lightly with her left elbow, looked forward, moved her lips slightly, and whispered to Cohen.

"Do you feel it's a pity to be killed like this?"

"Talent? Haha~"

Cohen held half a cigarette in his mouth and remained motionless. He let out some very light chuckles, as if he had heard a funny joke.

"The world is so big, and there is no shortage of what you call talents." Cohen took a puff of the cigarette and held the smoke in his mouth.

"What the world lacks is talents who have grown up."

As the words came out, the smoke that Cohen held in his mouth also drifted out in wisps as his lips closed, and dispersed into the air.

Hearing what Cohen said, Zhu Yuan was slightly stunned. After thinking about it for a while, he realized the meaning of his words.

She turned her head and looked at Cohen in surprise, "Tsk, I didn't expect you to be able to say such a thing. I thought you knew how to fight. It seems I don't know you well enough. It feels like Bai has known you for more than ten years."

Zhu Yuan really didn't expect that Ke En could actually say such a thing. She knew that Ke En's mind was very flexible, but in the more than ten years they had been together, no matter what they encountered, Ke En was the best at it. The only thing is to hit it with a fist. If there is anything, we can talk about it after smashing it.

This has always been his way of doing things.

Quanyuan, who was used to his other way of doing things, was a little uncomfortable with such profound words coming out of nowhere.

"Hiss~" Cohen raised his head and blew out a puff of smoke into the sky.

"Having experienced it, you only know a little bit."

"Have you experienced it?" Zhu Yuan was stunned again.

She couldn't help but think of what she had heard about Cohen from her grandfather, and she instantly understood the meaning of Cohen's words.

Nodding slightly, she agreed with what Cohen said, although she had not experienced it herself.

However, she did not continue this topic. Experience?Never experienced it?There is simply no way to solve something like this, so talking about it is useless.

She turned her attention to the students who were lining up, "Do you want to take all the people here to your warship?"

After hearing Zhu Yuan change the topic, Cohen no longer dwelled on the previous topic. He also turned his attention to the students lining up on the training ground.

At this time, 500 people were lining up on the training ground.

The entire training base is divided into five parts. The south side near the port is a building where instructors and support staff work, while the east side near Cedar Town is a dormitory building for students who are not working in the city. Accommodation for instructors and trainees who have settled down in Cedar Town.

The northeast side and the southwest side are respectively a training ground for students' daily training.

The students in the entire training base were divided into two groups and trained on two training grounds respectively.

Cohen knew that what Zhu Yuan was talking about was not just the six or seven hundred students in this training ground, but all the students in this training base.

"No, I only plan to take away some specific personnel, and then slowly observe and make selections." Cohen shook his head and said.

"There are a total of [-] students here, and only about half of them have been trained as naval soldiers. The rest are not trained as marine soldiers, but other training."

"And among the 700 people who have undergone naval training, not all are suitable to be taken out now. There are still many who have not yet reached the standard for discharge. Taking them out will not be beneficial to them, nor will it be beneficial to me. .”

"Oh? In addition to being a naval soldier, have you done any other training? What kind of training is there?" Zhu Yuan asked in surprise after hearing what Cohen said.

She knew that when Cohen built this training base, she also knew that Cohen was training sailors and cultivating direct troops.

But she really didn't know what exactly Cohen had trained in this base.

Normally, Cohen would not tell her these things specifically, and she had never asked Cohen about these things in detail.

"There are quite a lot of classifications. There are spies, intelligence collectors, and assassins trained. I'm not very clear about it myself." Cohen took off the cigarette from his mouth, flicked the ash, and said.

"Tsk, you don't even know your own affairs?"

"I am only responsible for controlling the general direction. I leave the rest to Dodge and the others without much interference."

Cohen shrugged and said, "Anyway, as long as there is someone when I need someone, there is no need to worry about other things."

"That's true."

Zhu Yuan didn't dwell too much on this. She calculated silently in her mind, "Then you can only take away 600 people this time?"

"Well, that's probably the number." Cohen nodded.

"If your warship cannot be filled, it seems that you still need to go to the headquarters to get some marine soldiers to fill it."

"It doesn't matter, they are just grassroots marines anyway, and those trained by the headquarters can barely be used."

"Indeed, your own people account for more than half, so you don't have to worry about having difficulty in commanding."

Zhu Yuan nodded and understood what Cohen was thinking, "But you don't have senior leaders there yet, or do you plan to directly promote Shankos and the others?"

"No way. Although Shankos and the others are no longer much weaker than a normal major general, their highest rank now is just the lieutenant colonel of Coral. He suddenly reached the rank of major general, which is a huge improvement. It’s not conducive to their growth.”

"No, I'm just going to promote them to brigadier general, no problem." Cohen has also considered what Qu Yuan said and already has some ideas.

"Then you don't have a rear admiral on your warship. Although you don't really need a rear admiral on your warship, as a lieutenant general, it's not okay if you don't have a rear admiral under your command."

Zhu Yuan gave Cohen advice, "This is too shabby. How about I ask Morold to go to your place to help you support the situation?"

"It's not necessary. I've just been promoted anyway. Without a major general, there would be no major general. With Shankos's current strength, it's barely enough. In a few years, when they grow up, they won't be able to That’s it.”

Cohen shook his head.

"If it doesn't work, I'll go to your place and borrow two."

"It's up to you." Hearing that Ke En already had his own plan, Zhu Yuan said nothing more.

Just as Cohen said, if it doesn't work anymore, she can just send two people over.
