Chapter 229 A year of changes.

Haiyuan calendar year 1521.

More than half a year has passed since the Battle of Marineford.

The situation in the boiling new world was turbulent, and many shocking events occurred.

First, shortly after the war ended, the Supreme Admiral of the Naval Headquarters, Buddha Sengoku, resigned from his post.

Along with the legendary naval hero, Iron Fist Garp, he has been relegated to the back burner.

The senior members of the navy held an election for the vacant position of commander-in-chief.

As a result of the election, Admiral Akainu won with the highest number of votes.

However, his appointment was strongly opposed by Admiral Aokiji.

Two people with different ideologies fight to the death on an uninhabited island, and the winner takes over the navy.

The war lasted for ten days and ten nights, and the brutal battle even caused permanent changes to the topography and climate of the entire island.

In the end, Akainu won by a narrow margin and successfully took on the position of Navy Admiral.

The defeated Aokiji left the navy and disappeared.

In order to quickly replenish troops and expand the navy's territory in the New World, Navy Admiral Akainu launched the "World Recruitment" operation.

Among them, two strong men stood out from the crowd and became the new admirals of the Navy Headquarters.

Code name: [Fujitora], [Green Bull].

In the same year, the first half of the Grand Line, Marinford, was established as the G-1 Division.

The Navy Headquarters was moved to the entrance of the New World, and the original G-1 branch was renamed New Marineford.
The above is an inventory of changes in the naval situation since the Battle of Marineford to the present.

——World Economic News Service.

The warm light of the early morning shines through the window, brightening the quiet living room.

The rich aroma of coffee wafting from the kitchen makes the cottage even more cozy.

"Aokiji actually quit the navy?" Nami put down the newspaper on the sofa, looking quite surprised.

Now she has grown her hair long, with an orange-red bun tied up at the back. A few strands of hair hang beside her ears, and the ends of her hair wind around her fair neck.

Compared with her previous immaturity, her temperament has become more mature.

Of course, this also includes physical growth.

What does a 'J' cup mean? Reiner's happiness is hard to describe in words.

"Look at the back. There's a lot of information."

Reiner walked out of the kitchen, put two cups of coffee on the table, and sat down next to her.

His body was stronger than before, his face looked resolute and had a more mature look.

Nami smiled and reached out to scratch his chin.

Although he grooms it every day, he still has some hard stubble.

It feels itchy when rubbed on the body, which is a very novel and exciting experience.

Nami didn't reject this feeling. Every time her neck was rubbed, her shoulders would shrink and her sensitive body couldn't help but tremble.

Reiner handed her a cup of coffee and turned to the last page of the newspaper.

A familiar figure in the picture caught his attention.

"--Eh?!"

Nami let out a long sigh of surprise and immediately picked up the newspaper, "Soul King, isn't this Brook!"

"Well, we have a big star in our family now."

Reiner let out a small smile as he laid back, reaching his hand behind Nami and placing it on the back of the couch.

Nami took a sip of coffee and put it down, crossing her legs and automatically leaning towards his chest.

Nami couldn't help but feel delighted to hear the news about her long-lost friend, and she read the introduction in the newspaper carefully.

“I don’t know how the others are doing now.”

"Everything is probably fine, except Sanji." Reiner looked up at the ceiling and murmured, "I'm suddenly a little scared to see him. I'm sure he will be killed."

"It's your fault that you did such a bad thing and made him so excited. I won't protect you when the time comes." Nami said unhappily.

During this period of time, the two have been following Visalia around the world.

With Reiner's protection, the old men have reached many islands that were previously difficult to land on.

Basically, the environment is harsh, the beasts are ferocious, or the local people are extremely tough.

I have even encountered cannibal tribes that ate raw meat and drank blood. Because we couldn't communicate due to language barriers, they just wanted to kill people.

I was scared to death by those old guys and almost peed myself on the spot.

The undead easily subdue the other party, they are not a powerful group.

Of course, they have also encountered powerful enemies.

Because the focus of training is the body, Reiner never uses the undead, he always fights on his own.

The large number of battles he had experienced since he went to sea until now had made his physical skills improve significantly.

Before going to sea, he only relied on numbers. Looking back now, Reiner believes that it was not so much that he had poor talent, but rather that his foundation was too poor from the beginning.

After all, before he came into this world, he was just an ordinary person.

Fighting skills don't just appear out of thin air, and martial arts can't be learned without a teacher.

Without practical support, it would be useless to practice behind closed doors for a lifetime, so I have always focused on physical exercise.

"If I remember correctly, the next stop is Alabasta." Reiner glanced at Nami, "They are planning to go deep into the desert and study the effects of dancing powder."

"Well, I wonder if Vivi is here. I haven't seen her for a long time and I miss her a little." Nami's eyes flashed with some anticipation.

As soon as they entered the Grand Line, Vivi got on board. Before Robin joined, she was Nami's only good friend, and the two of them could talk about anything.

"You don't have any other plans, right? Let's go find Weiwei together?" Nami looked up and asked.

Reiner said, "I'm going to go to the Santa Dora River, but you can go find Vivi first. Maybe she can find some information."

His previous experience there made him a little concerned.

Just by chance, he returns to Alabasta, and Reiner wants to explore it.

It can also be considered as cultivation.

The two of them usually practice on Visalia. When they land, they look for enemies to practice. If there are no enemies, Reiner will imitate Garp and fight against the mountains to practice Haki.

Nami has less time to practice because she needs to learn meteorological knowledge.

However, in terms of domineering, he has already touched the threshold of observation Haki, and his fruit development has not fallen behind.

With Eneel's experience as an example, as long as Nami masters the observation Haki, she will be able to surpass everyone in terms of perception range with the power of the fruit.

I asked Rayleigh about the practice of advanced domineering techniques before leaving the Sabaody Archipelago.

He is still in the stage of laying the basics, and advanced applications such as dominance, foresight, and the release of armed color are not within his reach for the time being.

But there is still a long time, just take it step by step.

On the contrary, he has a lot of ideas about the ability of the fruit.

After discovering that the undead were unable to cast their domineering Haki, Reiner knew that it would be difficult to reach the top relying on the undead.

After all, in the later stage, domination is one of the means to increase the upper limit of combat power.

But he had no intention of abandoning the undead.

Reiner also believes that the real body and the undead can complement each other.

To use the game's terms, it means relying on the undead to snowball in the early stages, and using them as the backbone of combat power in the middle stages.

In the later stages, they all reshaped their bodies and asked Franky to help transform them into weapons.

The flesh and blood are weak and the machine soars!

 There is a construction project going on near my home and it is too noisy. I can't concentrate on typing. I may adjust the update time later.
