Pirate: This Marine has two Rinnegan.

"Sengoku! I brought you the person you wanted. Do you have any senbei? I'm starving!"

"..." Chiga looked at the eccentric Garp in front of her and was speechless. She thought to herself that he was just like the character in the Blue Star comics, a simpleton.

However, Chiga didn't dislike them, because these kinds of people are actually the easiest to get along with and have no bad intentions. You know, when Chiga was in Hokage, he encountered Konoha's high-ranking officials and heads of various clans, and every single one of them was cunning and scheming. It's really tiring to be scheming all day long, not to mention that as an Uchiha, he wasn't favored by the higher-ups, and he could easily lose his life if he wasn't careful.

As for Garp, if you treat him sincerely, he won't treat you badly. Not only him, but many of the Marine Headquarters officers are actually easy to get along with. No matter how far their sense of justice deviates, they still lean towards the "right" side. This is also an important factor that makes Chiga prefer the Marines to pirates.

On the office chair, a tic-tac-toe mark appeared on Sengoku's forehead. He had originally wanted to leave Chiga with the image of a wise and dignified old leader at their first meeting, but now it was completely ruined.

Trying to control his emotions, Sengoku somewhat irritably told Garp to sit down to the side.

However, Garp wasn't buying it. He picked out a booger, flicked it with his finger, and a shiny black booger landed on the face of the little lamb next to Sengoku. Instantly, a beautiful beauty mark appeared on the lamb's white face.

"Garp!" Seeing his little pet being mistreated, Sengoku finally lost his temper and was about to explode when a calm female voice rang out.

"Alright, you two, how old are you? Quiet down and stop making this young man Qianhe laugh at you."

Chiga peeked out and saw an elderly woman with gray hair sitting on the sofa, with a tall, mature woman standing next to her.

The mature woman had her long black hair casually tied back, and she had a pair of almond-shaped eyes with reddish pupils. Her delicate nose and a perfectly placed mole below her cherry-like lips brought out her ultimate allure.

"Very beautiful." Chiga silently gave it a five-star rating in her mind. Then she thought that the two people in front of her should be Vice Admiral Tsuru of the Marine Headquarters and her adopted sister, Momousagi, a future Admiral candidate. These two are also heavyweights in the Marines.

While Chiga was observing the two, Tsuru and Momousagi also saw Chiga peeking out.

At first glance, both of them were drawn to Chiga's eyes. What kind of eyes were they? Circles of black ripples were distributed within them like vortexes, and purple light flashed across them from time to time.

The two simultaneously unleashed their Observation Haki, and then they sensed a powerful energy fluctuation and a pressure comparable to Conqueror's Haki emanating from those eyes.

Both of them simultaneously gave Chiga their mental assessment of the "terrifying newcomer."

It's worth mentioning that Momousagi's gaze lingered on Chiga's face for a while before she nodded quietly and looked away.

Chiga naturally noticed the two spying on him, but didn't care. He walked out from behind Garp, went to Sengoku's desk, and greeted Sengoku. A soldier should act like a soldier; this was something he had been taught on Earth.

"Good, very good!" Sengoku was very satisfied. What is a model navy? This is a model navy! Talented, strong, polite, respectful to superiors, and even knows how to kill pirates! In comparison, what kind of scum was that guy who only knew how to pick his nose? Sengoku said he didn't know that kind of scoundrel.

"So, new recruit Chika, given your abilities, I'm going to make an exception and send you to the Marine Headquarters Elite Training Camp, where you will receive the most rigorous and elite education in the Navy!"

At this point, Sengoku paused, looked directly at Senga, and asked, word by word:

"So, are you ready, Uchiha Chika!"

Chiga was in a good mood. She had come here with the purpose of getting to know the power system of the pirate world, and the Marine Headquarters Elite Training Camp was undoubtedly a good place to achieve this goal. Moreover, becoming an officer would be a great experience.

“Yes, I’m ready, Marshal Sengoku!” Without hesitation, Chiga replied.

"Very good, then I'll arrange for someone to show you around the headquarters."

"I'll do it, Marshal Sengoku. I don't have anything else to do anyway." To Sengoku's surprise, Momousagi suddenly stepped forward and took on the task.

Sengoku glanced at her in surprise. To be honest, Momousagi's status at headquarters was not low; she was also Tsuru's younger sister. Using the excuse of giving Garp a vacation to have him pick up Chika was already a bit overstepping his bounds. Sengoku had originally planned to send a mid-level officer who was familiar with the environment.

Crane glanced meaningfully at his adopted sister, thinking, "This old maid can't hold back anymore." Garp continued picking his nose, sitting indifferently to the side. What did this have to do with him?

Ignoring the stares from the office, Momousagi spoke frankly.

"I feel a connection with this young man, Chiga. I'd like to get to know him better. I'm sure we'll have the opportunity to work together in the future."

"Well, since you've taken the initiative, go ahead. It's not a big deal." Sengoku approved.

Momousagi walked gracefully to Chika in her high heels, one hand on her hip, and smiled at Chika with a hint of teasing.

"Well then, let's go. Nice to meet you. My name is Gion. Please take care of me from now on, Chiga-nii~"

"This Momousagi is acting like a fairy. Let's not call her Momousagi anymore, let's call her Pink Fox instead." Chika thought to herself, but still gave a polite smile on her face.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Gion-nee."

Chapter 13 An Encounter with Tea Pig

Naval Headquarters living quarters

Walking side by side with Gion on the street, Chiga looked around at the surroundings with some curiosity.

The streets are lined with various shops, mostly selling daily necessities, similar to the commercial streets on Blue Star, but with a more modern style than Konoha. Since it is a naval base, the signs and decorations are mainly blue and white.

"You can come here and browse around when you have time, buy some fruit or something to treat yourself, that way you can grow taller," Gion said casually from the side.

Chiga was speechless. At the age of 16, she was already nearly 1.9 meters tall, but in her eyes she was still not tall enough?

However, seeing that Gion was over two meters tall, he was relieved, as it was a local characteristic.

Seeing that Chiga didn't react, Gion assumed that Chiga thought she disliked him for being short, and then changed her mind.

"Actually, you don't need to be too tall. Your current height is enough, after all, you're only 16 years old."

"Hmm, I didn't notice that, Gion-nee, there's an old man over there staring at you."

Chiga noticed a sleazy-looking middle-aged man in a brown casual suit standing in front of a bar. He had been staring in their direction ever since, so Chiga spoke up to remind Gion.

"Huh?" Gion turned her head and immediately saw the uncle Chiga had mentioned.

There was no way around it; that so-called "uncle" was just too conspicuous. But not because he was handsome like Chiga; he was conspicuous because he was incredibly ugly.

The man had his hands in his pockets, a crooked mouth, and a cigarette dangling from his lips. His large face had two small, squinting eyes, but judging from the situation, they wouldn't open very wide, just like... Zhu Bajie from Earth!

"Oh, I know that guy. His name is Jiaji. He's pretty annoying. You should stay away from him in the future."

"Jiaji? That's the Chaton who'll be on par with Gion as a candidate general, right?" Chiga thought, stroking her chin.

At that moment, Kake saw Gion glance in his direction and immediately walked over with his sleazy gait.

"Gion-san, it's been a whole month since I last saw you. You're still as beautiful as ever. Please accept my 88th confession!" Kakei approached Gion and Chiga, pulled out a bouquet of flowers from somewhere, and then confessed with a "deeply affectionate" expression.

However, Gion didn't even glance at him, and directly reached out to pull Chiga away.

"Hey, Gion-san, don't go! You haven't rejected me yet!" Kake hurriedly caught up, eager to receive Gion's eighty-eighth rejection.

"I'm tired of saying no, just give up on that idea!" Gion said with a look of disgust.

"Why? Am I not handsome enough or not good enough?" Jiaji asked incredulously, voicing the question that had been buried deep in his heart.

Chiga watched silently from the side, thinking to herself, "With your appearance and behavior, where do you get the confidence to ask this question?"

Kakei saw that Gion was too lazy to reply to him, and lowered his head in frustration. Then he finally noticed Chiga, who was watching the drama unfold.

"Hey? Who's this guy?"

Seeing that Kaji had finally noticed him, the bystander, Chiga stopped watching the drama unfold and stepped forward to introduce himself.

"Hello, I'm a new recruit to the Navy, my name is Uchiha Chika."

"Oh, hello, I'm Kake." Kake briefly introduced himself as well, thinking to himself, "Where did this newbie come from? Gion is personally accompanying him, and he's so handsome!" Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind...

Could it be that Gion has taken a liking to him?!

Thinking of the scene of the two of them walking side by side on the street just now, Jiaji shuddered and froze in place. When Qianhe saw him suddenly acting as if he had been struck by lightning and wanted to go forward to check on him, he suddenly looked up, which startled Qianhe.

He stared intently at Qianhe's face for a long time, making Qianhe think that he had failed in his love confession and wanted to challenge him to a royal duel.

Then, he glanced between Gion and Chiga a few times, took a deep breath, and said in a tone that seemed to see through everything, "Okay, I understand! I wish you happiness, Gion!"

After saying that, he walked away without looking back, with a touch of nonchalance.

"Where did this water come from? Did it rain?" Chiga looked at the patch of water that had appeared on the ground where Kaji had left, with a puzzled expression.

"Ignore him, he understands again." Gion was already immune to Kake's behavior and didn't take it to heart at all.

"Oh," Chiga shrugged, turned and followed Gion away.

Upon arriving at a residential area, Gion pointed to a small building and said to Chiga,

"That's your temporary accommodation for the next few days. We'll assign you housing after you graduate."

Then he pointed to a villa with a garden next door.

"My place and He-jie's place are right next door. You can come find me if you need anything. I'll be at headquarters for the next few days."

Chiga nodded to indicate that she understood.

Seeing that Chiga had no objections to her accommodation, Gion gave her a few final instructions and left.

Chiga also went into her small building to rest and recuperate, waiting for news from the training camp.

Chapter 14 Dao Power Test

I stayed in my small building for three days, and even had dinner with Gion once during that time.

Coincidentally, he ran into Jiaji again at the restaurant. This poor guy saw his goddess with another man, behaving intimately (or so he thought), and he didn't even finish his meal. He stormed out, tears streaming down his face.

Of course, Chiga was already used to it; Gion hadn't said anything, so he was even less concerned.

On the morning of the fourth day, just after Chiga had finished breakfast, Gion came to inform him that the enrollment date had arrived and that he should immediately go to the training camp with her to report for duty.

When Chiga and Gion arrived at the training camp, they found that there were quite a few new recruits reporting for duty. In the center of an open space was a machine that looked like a punching power tester from the planet Earth, which was used to test one's power level in One Piece.

The officer in charge of the test had not yet arrived, and the trainees who had come to report were gathered in twos and threes, discussing the test that was to be conducted later.

Everyone looked a little nervous. After all, they had finally made it to the Navy Headquarters and gotten the chance to participate in the elite training camp. No one wanted to fail at the first test of their spiritual power.

However, this program is also fair; it doesn't consider your connections. If you reach the passing grade, you can enter the training camp. At the same time, it is also cruel. You should know that many people who come here are not first-time participants. No matter how they train, they just can't reach the standard. For them, that line seems like an insurmountable chasm.

At this moment, Gion was explaining the testing details to Chiga.

"When it's your turn, punch the soft pad of that machine with all your might. If the number on the display screen reaches 300 or higher, it means you've passed."

Chiga declared that she was certain she could reach that number, but Gion shook her head, looking earnestly into Chiga's eyes and emphasizing...

"The head instructor of the training camp is former Admiral Black Arm Zephyr. The current three admirals and many vice admirals of the headquarters were his students. Fleet Admiral Sengoku has recommended you to him, so you must go all out this time and not let him down."

Hearing this, Chiga was somewhat moved. Since arriving at headquarters, Sengoku had taken good care of him, and he wasn't an ungrateful wretch. So this time, he was determined to do his best to show himself.

"Don't worry, Gion-nee, just wait and see." Chiga smiled confidently and made her promise.

Gion didn't say anything more, but bent down slightly to straighten Chiga's clothes, making Chiga a little embarrassed. She waved her hand and said it wasn't necessary.

Gion covered her mouth and chuckled.

"So you do know how to be shy? You can't be all sloppy when you're in the spotlight later, with so many people watching."

Chiga rolled his eyes, then suddenly pinched Gion's hand that was resting on his clothes, and while Gion was stunned, he disappeared from the spot with a body-flickering technique.

"You little brat! If you dare touch me, don't run away!" Gion, realizing what had happened, swung her fist at the air and laughed as she scolded.
