Chapter 27 Promotion and salary increase, Karp's arrival

Navy Branch 153.

It was already three days after the eradication of the evil dragon and Colonel Mouse.

"Congratulations Link for successfully destroying the Dragon Pirates and dealing with the traitor Colonel Mouse. Your rank has been promoted to Colonel of the Marine Headquarters! I hope you can continue to work hard and make more contributions to justice!"

"Thank you, sir. I will try my best!"

Link responded with a cheerful look on his face.

He originally thought that he would at most be promoted to brigadier general of the Four Seas Branch, but he never expected that he would be directly transferred to colonel of the Navy Headquarters!
According to the rules of the One Piece world, the military rank of the same rank in the Navy Headquarters is three levels higher, which is equivalent to completing three consecutive jumps, two levels more than the original promotion to brigadier general of the Four Seas Branch!
“I didn’t expect that I could complete a triple jump just by completing this small task!

I originally thought that I would have to wait until Luffy and the others were in Alabasta and defeated Crocodile Crocodile before I could be promoted to the Marine Headquarters!

Then when Luffy kills Crocodile, won't it be possible for me to be promoted to Vice Admiral of the Marine Headquarters like Smoker in the original story?!"

Link thought in his mind.

But in fact, he doesn't know whether Luffy can defeat Crocodile this time.

In the original work, the reason why Luffy was able to defeat Crocodile was because of the plot-killing effect of the blood-locking plug-in.

After all, according to his performance in the Battle of Marineford, Crocodile's strength is fully capable of matching the elite vice admirals of the Marine Headquarters.

Even Link, who has now mastered Armament Haki, does not dare to say that he can defeat his opponent.

If Luffy really cannot defeat his opponent at that time, it would not be strange.

"Forget it, I've helped him enough, and I'll let him solve the remaining tough problems himself.

Anyway, that guy is a genius in combat just like the Saiyans, and every battle is just a rare experience for him."

Link muttered to himself.

At the Cocosia gathering a day ago, he had written down the methods of cultivating Armament Haki and Observation Haki in a booklet and gave it to Luffy.

I believe that Luffy’s strength will be higher than in the original by then.

I just don't know if the other party can persuade Ace and prevent the war at the top from happening.

If Luffy fails to stop Ace in the future, the war at the top will still happen, and they will have to fight against each other.

"Congratulations, Captain Link! We are now in the same position in the navy."

Just as Link was thinking, Smoker came over and handed Link a white cloak with the word "Justice" engraved on it.

This is a cloak specially customized by the Marine Headquarters according to Link's body shape. It is many times better than the ordinary cloak that Link wore before, which is standard equipment of the four sea branches.

"Colonel Smoker, you are not in Rogue Town. Could it be that my three consecutive job promotions have something to do with you?"

Link made a joke when he saw Smoker actually show up.

"It has something to do with me." Smoker said slowly.

Link was stunned when he heard Smoker agree.

I was just joking, but I didn't expect it to be true?!
"What? You still have the nerve to do this?!"

Link was a little unconvinced.

If the other party really had this face, he would not have been demoted to the East China Sea.

"I recommended you to the Navy Headquarters, but that's also because you are strong enough...

As for why you were able to perform three consecutive jumps, it was because a high-ranking member of the navy recommended you."

Smoker gave Link a meaningful look.

As if to say, "You are pretending! Keep pretending!"
It turns out that you are the one hiding the deepest!

In fact, Smoker had some doubts about Link's identity at the beginning. After all, it is not something that ordinary navy men can master such a proficient six styles.

Even in the elite naval training camp where he studied, there were not many naval officers who could master any one of the six styles. He had never seen someone like Link who could master multiple six styles.

At first he thought Link was a gifted man, self-taught!

But after that person asked Link to jump three levels, he realized that Link should be that disciple!
“Okay, Link, stop pretending, I already know the relationship between you and that adult!
After hearing about your incident, that gentleman dropped his heavy work and came to see you in person. Come with me."

Smoker looked at Link who was still pretending to be stupid with a speechless face, and waved his hand to signal him to follow him.

"The top brass at the Navy Headquarters asked me to take a triple jump? Am I related to that adult? Who is that adult?!"

Link was confused and his head was buzzing.

How come he himself doesn't know that he has a connection with the top naval officials?

"Forget it, we'll just go take a look and find out who that high-ranking naval official is."

Link took a deep breath and slowly followed Smoker.

Soon, Smoker brought him to a navy ship.

The moment he saw the dog-head shape of the warship, Link instantly realized who the so-called senior naval officials were.

"Lieutenant General Garp!!!"

Before Link could show his surprise, the sailors nearby saw Vice Admiral Garp appear on the warship and instantly burst into deafening cheers.

"Are you Link?"

Garp walked off the warship and looked at the somewhat nervous Link with a meaningful smile.

"I heard that you used my grandson to earn a lot of merit! Are you treating my grandson as your black glove?"

Hearing that Garp seemed to have a bad tone, Link said nervously: "Hahaha! Vice Admiral Garp misunderstood, I just have some cooperation with your grandson."

"is it?"

Garp suddenly came in front of Link and stared at him very seriously.

Just when Link was quite nervous, Garp suddenly laughed and gave him a thumbs up.

"Hey boy, you did a great job!

Ever since my grandson met that red-haired guy, he has been clamoring to become a pirate!

I beat him every day, trying to make him change his mind.

But that guy was like a stubborn donkey and didn't listen to me at all. He was determined to become a pirate!

I didn't expect you to have something!

Although he was not completely brought into the navy, he helped the navy do a lot of things and upheld justice for the navy!

Whether you can completely recruit him into the navy in the future depends on you, Link boy!"

Garp patted Link's shoulder vigorously and gave him an approving look.

In his opinion, he had been educating Luffy for such a long time, but to no avail.

However, Link only needed to have a few contacts with Luffy to get him to cooperate with the navy!

If we round it up, isn't that equivalent to Luffy being a marine? !
If he allowed Link to have more contact with Luffy, he might really be able to bring Luffy back to serve as a navy!
That scene is so beautiful just thinking about it!

"…I'm sorry, I don't have that ability. Your grandson is destined to become the Pirate King."

Link wanted to reply to Garp like this, but he finally held it back and responded:

"Okay, Vice Admiral Garp! I will definitely ask him to help the navy more and eradicate those pirates who are endangering civilians!"
