nster" is about to emerge in this chaotic sea.His name is Rogers Darren....Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!···...Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me...As soon as Darren stepped through the gate of Officer Training Camp, he inexplicably gained a shadow.

Ku Zan looked like a small fanboy, following Darren's footsteps closely, occasionally exclaiming in admiration beside him, his eyes shining.

"I heard that during the operation to take down the Ward Sea Pirate Crew, you faced off against the pirate Bonney Waldo all by yourself, right"

"And there's more... I hear you've assembled an invincible, powerful fleet in the North Sea..."

"This is so cool..."

Facing the fervent praise, Darren was somewhat pained, only able to reply with a few empty platitudes.

"——I've decided!!"

Ku Zan suddenly rushed forward and blocked Darren's footsteps.

He raised his hand, stood tall and pointed at Darren. His eyes seemed to flash with intense fire, his thick lips curled into a fierce smile, and he clenched his fist tightly, saying:

"Darren, from today onwards, you are my Kuzan's designated…rival for life!!"

Are you ready to face my burning war intent and justice!

Darren:

Including: ...

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Darren's lips twitched.

Looking at the youthful and energetic Ku Zan before him, he felt that his life in the officer training camp would probably not be too peaceful.

……

The Officer Training Camp has not yet been officially expanded into a Naval Academy, and the number of naval officers who come here for training each year is also small, so the internal land area is not very large.

Darren, Cussen, and Kai quickly found the location of the schoolyard.

It was midday, the sun blazing fiercely in the sky. On the schoolyard, yellow sand whirled in the air, and even the sea breeze couldn't dispel the stifling heat.

More than a dozen naval officers of different builds had arrived earlier. Some were wiping their swords, some flexing their fists, some silent, and some smoking in the shadows cast by the high walls.

Their arrival caused quite a stir, and whispers started circulating among the crowd.

"Wasn't he wrong"

"Rogers Darren..."

"Rumor has it that Bondi Walford's 'King of the North Sea' dried up…"

"It certainly looks powerful... Such an aura..."

..."

Naval officers stared intently at the tall figure leading the way, their expressions varied, each harboring their own thoughts.

Who are the two people next to Darren Do you know them, Darmésia

Someone asked a young officer wearing a military cap and dog-patch markings on his face.

Dálmeiya said slowly:

"That fellow wearing the brown hat is Gaji, from Headquarters, very talented... As for that one yawning with black curly hair, I don't recognize him."

"Do you recognize this, a fire burning on the mountain"

He's called Ku Zan, and like me, he hails from the South Sea. He's a monster.

A young man named Huoshan, with a shaved head and a square face, grinned widely. He had a lit cigar clamped between his teeth.

Although her facial features are rather rough, when she smiles, she gives off a feeling of gentle and safe warmth.

"Remarkably strong, he was handpicked by our department to enter the training camp."

"...A monster"

A sullen man wiping his bayonet in the distance heard the description and looked up.

His skin had a dull sheen, his eyes blazed with cold malice, and his long reddish hair was as unkempt as a spider's eight legs.

"Ghost Spider, you better watch your step. This isn't a vacation in the West Sea."

The speaker was a young man wearing a military cap and with a cross-shaped scar on his cheek. His stern eyes held a hint of mockery.

"Even the Sea of the West is more relaxed than your pathetic 'Weakest East Sea,' Doburman." The Ghost Spider said coldly.

Doberman chuckled.

"If you're not satisfied, we can have another match. I guess you didn't enjoy yourself yesterday either, did you"

Ghost Spider sneered:

"Well, I have no interest in the weak."

As he spoke, his fierce gaze shifted from Kuzan to Darren.

……

Just as the other officers attending the training camp were sizing up Darren and his two companions, Darren himself was taking a quick look at everyone present.

Although they look at least twenty years younger than their appearance in the original story, overall their features are still quite recognizable.

Darmaseia, who has a Dalmatian skin, is an animal-type Devil Fruit user, the Spot Dog Form Ability. She is a future Marine Vice Admiral and elite soldier, having severely injured "Sol God" with her shaving and finger gun on the battlefield at the top.

With a buzz cut, goatee, cigar clamped in his teeth, and a down-to-earth smile, this is Hiokiyama (Fire Mountain), a future Rear Admiral of the Marines.

He took care of Chief Staff Officer "Crane" during the Summit War, being both strong and gentle. He was an example for many young marines and was one of the five Vice Admirals who participated in the "Extermination Order" at Impel Down. He participated in the Extermination Order mission twice.

The red-brown long hair and the sinister expression belong to Kakuzu.

A future Marine Headquarters Rear Admiral, he is a very cruel person.

During missions, he doesn't care if it harms his own subordinates. He was one of the five admirals who participated in the "Devil Slayer Order" plan and is a prominent hawk figure in the Navy in the future.

The one with the scar on his face is Dōberman, a future Rear Admiral of the Marines' headquarters. He was one of the two Vice Admirals who, in the later stages of the Paramount War, teamed up with Akainu to pursue the Whitebeard Pirates. His style is very tough.

Even after the war at the top, when Shanks suggested to stop making a fuss about Whitebeard and Ace who had died, Doflamingo directly rebuked the Yonko Red Hair.

Except for these few people, Darren couldn't recognize the other officers.

After all, the original plot doesn't provide much information about the navy. But it can be confirmed that those who pass the headquarters review and selection to enter the officer training camp will undoubtedly become the backbone of the navy in the future.

Unlike later mass recruitments, the initial officer training camps recruited only the elite among the elite, truly a "cradle of generals".

"Hey hey hey, Darren, Kusan...they're looking at us kind of weird..."

Standing beside Darren, Jiaji felt a wave of discomfort as she met the gaze of the crowd. She felt like every eye was on her, making her incredibly self-conscious.

"Eyes full of fighting spirit... It really gets the blood pumping!!"

Ku Zan adjusted his sunglasses, a wide grin spreading across his full lips, brimming with energy.

With a roll of his eyes, he ignored Ku Zan's enthusiastic young heart and turned to look at Darren.

Darren waved his hand and smiled, "Jiaji, move a couple of steps to the side."

"Oh oh, what's wrong" Jiaji, although puzzled, still complied. "Is this enough"

"Take two more steps."

"Okay."

"Are you still feeling uncomfortable"

"Now... Now I'm good!"

His face was full of surprise.

What's the matter

Darren said quietly:

"Because they only saw me and Kwanza, not you."

Including...

"Hahahahahaha!! Little guys, are you all here"

At that moment, a loud and hearty laugh echoed from the entrance of the schoolyard.

Everyone stood up, straightened their caps, sheathed their swords, and solemnly looked in that direction.

Yellow sand swirls and dances, a tall and imposing figure strides with steady and powerful steps, slowly walking through the yellow sand towards them.

Amethyst-colored short hair, bronze skin, and sinewy muscles bulging under his uniform. He wore black sunglasses, a golden wheat sheaf on his shoulder boards rippling in the wind with his general's cape.

A heavy, oppressive sense of solemnity and power suddenly swept over everything.

Former Fleet Admiral, Zeff, Marine code name... "Black Arm"!
