From the Navy Admiral to the Gotei 13

It is now the beginning of the year 1498 in the Haiyuan calendar. In the past two years, the world has been turbulent and changing, but it has little to do with Diarmait, who has been practicing in Marineford.

He basically attends the Navy's strategic meetings on time every week to understand the current situation in all aspects and punch in for work.

The rest of the time was spent in the officer training camp, training with Teacher Zefa.

The elite officers of the 6th Officer Training Camp have all graduated not long ago.

Flying Squirrel, Huoshaoshan and others were directly promoted to colonels in the Naval Headquarters upon graduation, and it is said that they have already obtained the qualifications of brigadier generals. As long as they make meritorious contributions, they will be able to enter the ranks of generals immediately.

From this, we can see the advantages of the officers' training camp cadets.

As long as you receive systematic training here, your starting point will be much higher than that of ordinary navy officers after you graduate. As long as you don't commit suicide, you can generally be promoted to a general-level officer in the navy.

This was just the beginning. In the future, the officer training camp had an enormous impact on the Navy Headquarters. Almost twenty years later, all the elite officers of the Navy Headquarters came from here.

They support the future of the navy.

Of course, there are also people who seek death, such as Smoker in the future. That guy originally had a promising future. As a natural ability user, he immediately received special attention and training after joining the navy. He was sent to study under Teacher Zephyr. As a result, due to his own troublesome factors, he eventually graduated. He didn't stay in the headquarters for long before he was sent to the East China Sea to guard the fish pond.

Diarmait may not be extremely talented, but he works hard enough. For two years, he has never relaxed his training, rain or shine.

Perhaps it was because hard work can make up for lack of talent, or perhaps it was because although his talent was not amazing, it was still quite good. Therefore, under the guidance of Teacher Zefa, his strength has changed dramatically compared to before.

Gion, who fought against Diarmait, was the one who could feel this change most directly.

It is worth mentioning that Gion also became a brigadier general of the Naval Headquarters not long ago.

For two years, they often practiced together.

In terms of swordsmanship alone, Gion almost crushed Diarmait at the beginning, but half a year ago, she had to take Diarmait seriously.

Now, Diarmait will not lose to her so easily. Even if he still wins less and loses more, the fight will be very exciting.

This is just a sword technique. Once Diarmait uses his abilities, Gion will no longer be his opponent.

Nagason Yakotetsu was wrapped in the power of Haki and slammed hard into Gion's Konpila. Perhaps because neither of them was particularly proficient in Haki, they did not produce the brutal energy waves that appeared in the duel between Haki masters.

With a move of his own, Gion exerted force on his feet and disappeared from Diarmait's sight.

It is one of the six styles, the shaving step!

At the same time, a gleam of light flashed in Diarmait's eyes, and he swung the long sword in his hand, creating a flower shadow, and made a very sharp blind slash behind him.

Sure enough, the next moment, the sharp Kinpila hit Nagazo Mikotoru.

"You've become more proficient in your Observation Haki!" Gion exclaimed in admiration as he blocked the attack.

She thought she was extremely talented and growing very fast, but she had to admit that Diarmait was growing even faster than her.

But she was not jealous, because she knew very well that Diarmait had put in much more effort than she had.

"It's okay." Diarmait chuckled.

As the words fell, his feet flashed and his figure disappeared on the spot. It was also the Shave Step, one of the Six Styles of the Navy.

"Iron block!" Gion said in a low voice.

The slender figure froze in place, and at the same time, a certain degree of domineering aura quickly covered her body.

Diarmait's slash suddenly landed on her arm, but due to the combined power of the iron block and domineering power, it did not cause her any injuries.

"I heard that you went drinking with Dorag yesterday?" Gion asked while blocking the attack.

"Well, that guy has been acting a little strange recently. He seems to be in a bad mood. Kuzan asked me to go and enlighten him when I am free." Diarmait responded with a smile.

"I also noticed that his mood was not right. Ever since he completed the mission of guarding the Celestial Dragons, his originally cheerful personality has become much gloomier. Two days ago, he had a big fight with Garp." Gion said while fighting with Diarmait.

Monkey. D. Dorag.

The son of the naval hero Monkey D. Garp, he was considered a top-tier expert among the current generation of naval personnel, and also one of the most influential.

After all, Zephyr's son is dead, Admiral Sengoku is not married, and Chief of Staff Ahe is also single. Therefore, Dragon is considered the top second-generation official in the navy, and even Rossinandi cannot compare to him.

At the same time, as the son of a hero, Dorag has also attracted much attention. He has been trained by various bigwigs since he was a child, so his strength is extremely powerful.

I've heard Kuzan mention before that Sakaski had fought against Dorag several times, but he lost more than he won. The occasional victory was probably because Dorag took care of Sakaski for the sake of face.

At the same time, Drago is also an elite vice admiral of the Marine Headquarters, and has made many contributions to the Navy's battles.

For Garp, Dragon is his pride. For the navy, as long as Dragon develops normally and step by step, he will inevitably become an admiral of the navy.

It is even possible for him to become a naval marshal in the future.

Originally, it should have developed like this.

Until recently, Dragon carried out the navy's political mission, escorting the Celestial Dragons on patrol.

The mission was successfully completed, but after returning, Dorag had changed a lot and his emotions were very unstable.

Putting aside their identities, Dorag and Diarmait can be considered friends.

We have had a lot of contact in the past two years.

Ever since that day in Admiral Sengoku's office when he officially became the Commodore of the Naval Headquarters, Diarmuid had truly felt the changes in his life.

Before this, he had received a lot of care from General Sengoku and Teacher Zefa.

But in essence, he is still a small character. Even though he can follow Kuzan and Borsalino, he is still a follower and is not on the same level as them.

But after becoming a brigadier general, things are different. You no longer need to cling to them to participate in many important matters of the navy.

He participated in various meetings in a reasonable and logical manner, put forward his own ideas and suggestions, and gradually stepped onto the stage of the navy's internal affairs.

This is a platform on the same level as them.

During this period, I also met many members of the headquarters, and due to my personality, I became good friends with many of them.

Even Sakaski, when he met Diarmait, would greet each other.

Now the generals of the navy are all well aware that Diarmuid is the user of the gravity fruit, a legitimate graduate of the 6th Officer Training Camp, the most valued and beloved disciple of Mr. Zephyr in the past two years, and a new generation member of the Warring States Admiral faction.

Coupled with his well-known diligence and hard work, his strength is also improving every day. No one will doubt whether Diarmait can shine in the future.

Because this is already a certainty. When his training is completed, he will definitely become one of the elite of the navy!

“Really? He didn’t tell me that he had a fight with his father.” Diarmait said with a smile.

He was not surprised by Dorag's change.

After all, from the first time he met Dorag, he knew that the two of them could not be comrades forever.

Unlike Diarmuid, who was an 'egoist', Dorag was an ambitious 'reformer'.

Diarmuid did not have so many grand ambitions for the country, the people, and the common people of the world. He only wanted to gain a firm foothold in the navy and move up to the top step by step. It would be best if he could gain greater power and become an admiral or marshal, so that he could live a better life in the future and use the power and strength in his hands to influence the direction of the world.

As for the World Government, the Celestial Dragons, whether they are corrupt or not, he doesn't care about it now. As long as it doesn't endanger his own interests, he doesn't care.

But it was precisely because of this difference that Diarmait understood even more clearly that Drago would leave the navy sooner or later.

It is now the beginning of the year 1498 in the Sea Circle Calendar. As far as I can remember, it was in this year that Roger conquered the Grand Line and became the Pirate King.

He didn't know the exact time period, but judging from the current situation in New World, it would probably be the end of the year.

So from this perspective, in two years at most, by 1520, Roger would have come to the end of his life, when he was executed in the town of Roge in the East China Sea.

Dorag has already left the navy and gone out to work on his own.

Therefore, it can be inferred that Dorag will pack up and leave within two years at the latest.

At this time, no one in the navy would have thought that such a thing would happen, and no one would have thought that Dorag would abandon everything he had, even his bright and stable future, and rebel against the navy!

Diarmait didn't think about stopping Dorag or anything, because he couldn't do such a thing at all.

At the same time, it is not necessary.

Without further discussing these matters about Dorag, Diarmait blocked Gion's attack with his sword, and said with a serious expression, "Be careful, I'm going to use my power."

"Hey, you bastard, you are cheating!" Gion's face changed and he cursed angrily.

As soon as she finished speaking, she heard Diarmait say in a deep voice: "Gravity Blade. Tiger Bite!"

An inexplicable force instantly spread out from Diarmait's body and condensed on Nagasomi Kotetsu. Nagasomi Kotetsu, who was originally wrapped in domineering aura, faintly had a light purple halo.

As the halo clung to the blade, it transformed into the shape of a tiger and bit towards Gion with great force.

At the same time, Gion felt a heavy pressure coming towards her. Because the bastard Diarmuid changed his moves too quickly, she didn't react in time and her body was completely unable to withstand it. She flew backwards as if she was pounced on by a tiger.

The sword in his hand drew a flower shadow in the air. As he sheathed the sword, the invisible gravity exerted on Gion dissipated.

This saved the beautiful navy girl from falling into a vicious poop. Instead, she rolled in the air, punched twice, and staggered to the ground.

"Asshole, we agreed not to use our abilities!" Gion cursed as he landed.

"Hahahaha, without any ability, I can't beat you with just swordsmanship." Diarmait said with a big laugh.

There's nothing to be embarrassed about. He's certainly not as good as Gion in kendo, but so what? He doesn't rely solely on kendo to make a living anyway!

Chapter 27 Diarmuid: I’m coming out of seclusion!!

Over the past two years, Diarmait's physical fitness has continued to break through the limits, which even surprised him. Although he still didn't understand what the black core in his body was, he knew very well that he was able to break through the limits several times because of this thing.

However, at this point, he can no longer improve his strength quickly, and has already left the highway and started on a steady upward path.

This is also normal. It is impossible for anyone to continue to grow their strength at a high and stable speed.

At the beginning, the potential base is large, so strength will naturally increase rapidly. When the potential gradually turns into strength, without such a large base, the speed of strength progress will naturally slow down.

According to Teacher Zefa, when they reach that level, it is basically a matter of grinding and grinding. Unless something unexpected happens, they will move forward step by step. There will be no more sudden progress, and if they are not careful, their strength will even decline.

After understanding this, Diarmait naturally would not be upset because his progress in strength had slowed down.

At the same time, he also knew that he had accumulated a lot of strength, and it was almost time to conduct a real combat test.

Having strength alone is not enough. One must also have rich practical experience and go through the melting of iron and blood to truly become a strong person.

Diarmait never doubted this!

In the past two years, he has mastered all six styles of the Navy, but he has not yet fully proficient in them. According to his understanding and the information he got from Teacher Zefa, the true essence of the six styles lies in completely mastering all factors of oneself.

With this mastery, one can even completely control oneself and even injuries, which is the legendary 'life return'!

Among the people of the same level that he knows, only Spider Demon has mastered the life return, can freely control his hair with the Six Styles, and use the Eight Swords Style.

In addition to the Six Styles, he has now mastered the Armament Haki and has also made the entry into Observation Haki.

As for the rare Conqueror's Haki, he has not awakened it, and he is not even sure whether he has Conqueror's Haki.

The power of domineering is also divided into entry-level to mastery, and even has extended stages afterwards.
