Pirate: I was just slacking off, do you really think I'm bad?

"However, before Vice Admiral Sakazuki left, he told me that the fighting spirit of the 166th branch of the North Sea Navy was the strongest, but he didn't have a good training method and couldn't make you stronger."

"But I have developed some training methods in the East China Sea, and Lieutenant General Sakazuki approved of them during a conversation. In the coming period, I will pass on the training methods to Colonel Cleveland."

"You must train hard and not let Lieutenant General Sakazuki down!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Raleigh took out the two notebooks that had already been compiled from his pocket.

One book is his simplified version of the Six Styles of the Navy, and the other is the Three-Three System Tactics and Line Infantry Tactics.

The two notebooks are designed to enhance individual combat capabilities of soldiers, while the latter is an indispensable weapon for group operations.

In this backward era, advanced tactics can greatly reduce one's own casualties.

This may also be due to the extraordinary power in the world of One Piece, where a top-tier powerhouse can be as strong as an entire army.

Therefore, most people spend their time improving their personal skills, and few people study those complex and useful tactics.

Raleigh could only chuckle at the Pirate King's army's tactics.

When the navy and pirates fight, it's simply a matter of kings versus kings, generals versus generals.

Whether or not we can win depends entirely on whether our top combatants are strong enough and top-notch enough.

Whoever has the strongest combat power will win the battle.

However, the navy is still better than the pirates, since the pirates have no organization or logistics, and their artillery and weapons are inferior to those of the navy.

The only point worth noting is that pirates are basically all outlaws.

They approach every battle with a death wish, making them virtually impossible to defeat.

However, pirates generally suffer from many hidden injuries, and even the world's strongest man, Whitebeard, is rapidly weakening after his peak.

The Navy does this very well; in general, many Navy admirals are at their peak much longer than pirates.

"Is this...is this for me?"

Cleveland's excited words interrupted Raleigh's reverie, and he eagerly stretched out his hands.

He had seen two of Raleigh's disciples; they were young but already possessed extraordinary fighting prowess.

I learned from talking to Miles that he had only trained with Raleigh for a very short time.

Moreover, it is said that Major Gion and Major Kake also received guidance from Raleigh.

Although I don't know Raleigh's true strength, I can deduce from the strength of the people around him that Raleigh must be a terrifyingly powerful general.

What's even more commendable is that he has considerable expertise in how to improve the combat effectiveness of naval soldiers.

"Okay, you can take it. My requirement is that you lead these soldiers to master at least three of the Six Styles of the Navy within a month."

"yes!"

Cleveland took the notebook from Raleigh and gave him a solemn military salute.

Strictly speaking, only the most outstanding individuals in the Navy can receive formal training from headquarters and enter the officer training camp of the military academy.

Cleveland has not yet attended the main campus for further studies.

Because going to the Marine Headquarters in the Grand Line is too troublesome, the Marines within the four seas are almost all left to their own devices.

The training methods in the military depend on how the officers in charge arrange them.

Most of the time, it's just some simple training and passing the tests, since no one checks anyway.

While Cleveland was enthusiastically training its soldiers, Raleigh, who was lying on the sofa reading a book, had no idea what was going on.

In the Kingdom of Totnis, someone is investigating the truth behind the king's murder.

-------------------------------------

Kingdom of Totnes, Navy Branch 127.

On the training ground inside the base, a short-haired female navy officer is training.

Although he was covered in sweat, his eyes shone with unwavering determination.

The other naval personnel on the training ground started discussing this scene.

"Bellmer has been training very hard lately, and he always trains until he is completely exhausted and has to be carried back by his teammates."

"Yes, but speaking of which, Bellemere's strength has improved so much recently. If it weren't for Bellemere last time, we would have suffered a great loss."

"I think I know Bellemere's technique; it's the Navy's Six Styles, a secret technique passed down only by the Navy."

Although not much time had passed, Bellemere trained with all her might every day after receiving the secret manual from Raleigh.

Riley's simplified version of the Six Powers of the Navy enabled Bellemere to achieve numerous feats during this period, capturing many well-known pirates.

Bellemere, who had already been promoted to private first class, had not forgotten Raleigh's teachings.

She vividly remembered Raleigh telling her that the forces of justice should not be so weak.

Huff... huff... huff...

Exhaling the stale air from his chest and abdomen, Bellemere stopped running.

She has completed her physical training and will now study the Six Styles of the Navy.

"Belmel!"

"The branch secretary wants to see you. Stop training immediately and go to the meeting room."

A uniformed messenger ran into the drill ground and shouted loudly at Bellemere.

"Huh? What does the branch manager want with me?"

Bellemere casually picked up a towel from the side and wiped the sweat from her head. She then put on the uniform that was lying on the side and prepared to rush over and ask.

After walking along a short stone path, Bellemere entered the base's office building.

Before even entering the building, I saw the branch secretary standing guard at the meeting room door, as if there were some important guests inside.

The outspoken Bellemere asked directly:

"Colonel Duncan, what brings you here?"

Duncan quickly gestured to Bellemere, then quietly walked over and said:

"I don't know what's going on, but there are people from the World Government inside, members of CP9."

"I guess they're here to investigate because the Mad Blade Pirates killed the King and his guards of the Kingdom of Totnes a while ago."

"When you go in, don't say anything out of the ordinary. Think before you speak. If you don't want to say anything, you can remain silent. We're from the Navy, not under the jurisdiction of CP9, so don't be afraid."

After Duncan finished explaining things to Bellemere, he saw Bellemere nod seriously before letting her in.

As soon as the conference room door opened, the scene inside was revealed.

For some reason, even though it was a familiar place, Bellemere felt like she had entered the lair of a wild beast.

The temperature inside the conference room suddenly dropped by ten degrees.

In the main seat inside sat a man wearing a CP9 uniform.

Judging from his age, the man wasn't very old, probably around thirty.

However, Bellemere sensed that the level of danger far exceeded that of any Marine she knew. (Rayleigh hadn't made a move, nor had he exerted any sense of pressure on Bellemere.)

"Private First Class Bellemere, is that right? I have some questions for you."

The cold voice carried through the air, seemingly with an undeniable air of authority.
