he cast a look at the gloomy hall, asking:"Aren't you afraid he'll stab you in the back""He wouldn't dare, he has no evidence, and nobody would believe him anyway." Darren smiled. "Besides, I'm his go...That evening.

The headquarters of the 321st Branch Party Committee.

After his training, Darren simply rinsed himself off, stepping out of the steam-filled shower.

Staring into the mirror at his scarred, cheetah-like physique brimming with explosive power, he was momentarily lost in thought.

Physique: 58.418

Power: 53.890

Speed: 57.548

Fruit: 71.345

After the final combat training, I also had some wounds on my body, but they were mostly scabbed over and I estimate that a good night's sleep will allow them to heal completely.

This is reflected in the physical sensation data, with physique successfully increasing by 0.312, reaching 58.418. It's another step closer to the 60-point threshold.

"Indeed, progress has been increasingly slow. It seems that I'll have to find time to transport the heavy cannons from the warships to the schoolyard later."

Darren looked at the grotesque scars that covered his body, his brow furrowing in concern.

As their physical defenses become stronger, ordinary swords and firearms are largely ineffective against them.

The slash of a saber and the bullet of a musket, could only leave a faint red mark on the surface of one's skin.

In today's training, most of my injuries actually came from the flying squirrels' shelling.

To continue improving his physical recovery and resilience, Darren knew he had to increase the "intensity".

This is the benefit of the "Perception" talent.

With precise feedback on the data, he can effectively grasp the intensity of "training."

It will not result in injuries that cannot be healed, let alone fatal ones. Instead, the training intensity will be kept within a reasonable range.

Compared to the beginning, the improvement of my physical fitness data has become increasingly slow, but it is still progressing.

Although Darren has been promoted to the Governor of North Sea, controlling the naval power of the entire North Sea region.

But power is one thing, and Darren knew better than anyone that personal strength was the foundation for survival on this vast sea.

What he needs to do now is to solidify his control over the North Sea before going through "inspection" and heading to the central military officer training camp. He wants to make the entire North Sea Navy his "turf" as much as possible.

More power means being able to better acquire cultivation resources.

Based on this, strive to improve your personal abilities as much as possible.

Before mastering aura, the best way to increase strength is to enhance power, speed, and physique.

Darren didn't consider himself a monstrous prodigy like Sakaski, so he trained harder than anyone else.

According to Darren's estimation, the strength of an adult giant is roughly around 60 points.

And when his physical strength reaches 60 points, even in a normal state, his body's strength will reach the strength of the Rokushiki "Iron Block".

And he is getting closer and closer to that goal.

That's right, Darren is walking a monstrous path.

There are no weaknesses, all-around powerful!

The kind of overwhelming power that's utterly disheartening!

He believes that with the help of his "perceptual talent", he will one day be able to reach Kaido's terrifying, inhuman physical strength.

"Tap, tap, tap..."

At this moment, a knock on the door sounded.

Darren threw on a robe and walked over to open the door.

"Darren, Base Commander."

Outside the door was indeed a flying squirrel.

Here are your ice cubes.

Darren nodded and smiled faintly.

Thank you.

The flying squirrel then motioned to the two naval soldiers behind him, and soon they carried in box after box of ice blocks into the mansion.

Whoosh…

A mass of ice cubes was dumped into the bathtub. Two sailors looked at Darren with admiration and respectfully left.

"What's the status of those two guys now"

Darren stripped off his bathrobe, walking nonchalantly into the bathtub filled with ice cubes. He submerged his whole body in the freezing water and casually asked,

Ice bathing is his habit.

After high-intensity training, ice baths can promote blood circulation in the body, aid in recovery, eliminate inflammation, and alleviate soreness.

The flying squirrel, looking at the full tub of ice water, felt a shiver run down its spine.

Upon hearing Darren's question, a strange smile appeared on his face.

They estimated that they were stimulated by you and are now training on the field.

Darren was taken aback, then burst into a silent chuckle:

"It seems our department's geniuses have their pride."

But then I thought, it was quite normal for the two of them to react that way.

There is also a hierarchy of contempt within the Navy system.

The elite of Naval Headquarters look down on the branches stationed on the Grand Line, and the branches on the Grand Line look down on the naval bases in the Four Seas.

This is also very normal.

After all, in terms of strength, discipline, and equipment, the headquarters' navy has a crushing advantage.

And the navy of the four seas, because of its high autonomy and remoteness from the emperor, was even more lax in management and its military discipline was scattered.

Including Kaji and Gion, the two of them grew up under the care of the General. They were upright and talented, deeply loved by everyone. How could they have imagined that they would end up in a place like Behai and be effortlessly defeated by Darren

Now I'm feeling competitive all of a sudden.

"But, Darren, are you sure their arrival won't affect anything"

When no one else is around, the flying squirrel serves as Darren's right-hand man and is usually called by name.

Darren half-closed his eyes,

"My actions here haven't escaped headquarters' notice. This so-called "investigation" is just a superficial formality."

The shrewd old man from the Warring States period brought over Giyoku and Kake to me, mainly because he wanted me to give them some guidance.

The third Officer Training Camp is about to begin. Although they are already the chosen candidates, they still have to go through the motions, polish their image, accumulate some experience and achievements on their resumes.

"If they're going to move against me, it probably won't be these two rookies coming at me. It'll be the 'baptism' by a Crane Division general."

The flying squirrel fell silent for a moment.

"I always feel that your situation is too dangerous, I guess the department will soon be able to find out something."

Darren smiled and shook his head.

"The North Sea is too small; I look down on it."

"Besides, even if headquarters found out anything, what could they do about it"

"If they want to investigate, let them. Let them clearly see the situation in Beihai with integrity and transparency."

Darren then changed the subject:

"I heard that Vince McMahon has been causing quite a stir lately"

The flying squirrel replied:

"Yes, he boasted and flaunted his power everywhere, aggressively expanding his army and leading his troops on campaigns east and west. He declared that he would behead the kings of four countries, including the Kingdom of Yadies, in order to "rule over the North Sea once again."ccessfully defeated the "World Destroyer," Bundy Waldo!""Hahahahahaha…"The sound of Steelbone's hearty laughter echoed throughout the Fleet Admiral's mansion in Marine Headquarters, Marinesford.···.....
