Luckily I wasn't late.

Tina took off her sunglasses and put them in her pocket, in fact, being late was in the past, that was the daily routine of the base, and she was also late several times, but this time was the first fire of the new officer's arrival, so she had to give some face and abide by her duty.

At this time, there were already many navy troops in the training ground, and some soldiers were rushing to the ground, and Tina stood in a relatively backward position, looked around, and estimated that only about eighty percent came.

And this is already the most complete collection in the past two years, except for emergencies.

"I don't know what kind of person the new colonel is, I heard that he was transferred from Marin Fando."

Tina looked at the empty high platform in front of her, and muttered in her heart, "This won't happen in the headquarters, I guess I will be very angry when I see the soldiers like this......"

In her mind, Marin Fando is a true holy place of justice, and from the first moment she chose to join the navy, she longed to one day enter the headquarters and become an absolute elite in the navy.

"Hey, you've all heard about the new colonel who arrived last night."

"Ah, you know, Colonel Heiko, I didn't just hear that I saw it outside the dining room this morning."

"Really, what does that new headmaster look like? Isn't it the kind that is very fierce and harsh, and it is difficult to deal with? ”

The surrounding navies were whispering, and Tina suddenly heard what she was interested in from the conversation of several young female sailors, and immediately pricked up her ears and focused her attention.

"Not at all."

The female voice replied with some smugness, "On the contrary, he is a very nice uncle, and when I saluted and said hello, he also returned the salute very gently, and asked me if I had eaten, and asked me to take the rest of the breakfast back and share it with the brothers in the dormitory." ”

"Huh? Sounds like a good person. ”

"Yes, it's just a little too fat, it's estimated that there are three or four hundred pounds, and I can't breathe when I walk, let alone fight, and I don't know how I got to the position of colonel."

"You can't say that, what if it's a particularly capable commander-type talent, or a Devil Fruit ability, it doesn't seem to be powerful, but even tens of millions of bounties can easily win ......"

Tina's breathing suddenly stopped, and she clutched the corner of her clothes with some weakness and lowered her head slightly.

Not because of anything else, but suddenly remembered the strangely shaped oval fruit that he had accidentally found in a fruit tree in the slum last night after escorting the little black-haired girl named Dusty home.

After all, she was born on the Great Voyage, unlike some of the most knowledgeable civilians in the four seas, who recognized it at a glance as a precious and rare devil fruit that could bring strange powers to people.

So when the night was thick and no one around was paying attention, he took it off without hesitation on the spot and brought it home.

It's just that...... What's next?

Tina, who joined the Navy in pursuit of justice in her heart, didn't get much sleep last night.

She thought about handing over this fruit, but considering that she was not in the headquarters, and the superiors of the branch were a group of disdainful crooked melons and cracked dates, there was a high probability that the fruit would be swallowed privately, so she could only extinguish this idea.

As for eating it yourself......

Tina was also a little hesitant about this, she was very water-oriented, she didn't really want to be a landlubber completely, and besides, she didn't have a Devil Fruit Illustrated Book by her side, and the devil knew what messy abilities this fruit could bring to her......

"But!"

Just when she was in a trance, the voice of the young female navy came from her side, her tone was much higher than before, and she seemed a little excited:

"Although that Colonel Heiko doesn't seem to be anything special, among the subordinates he brought this time, there is such a beautiful man!"

"Eh, is it true?"

"How handsome is it, is it more handsome than Captain Ibuprofen?"

"Not at all in a grade!" The young voice said firmly, "I'll see it with your own eyes later!" I've never seen such a handsome man in the whole city of Earl, and when he laughs, and the sun is so warm and sunny that I was so fascinated that I almost didn't hit the street lamp when I walked! ”

As soon as these words came out, they immediately provoked a scream of excitement.

A bunch of...... Tina pursed her lips disdainfully, although she was only nineteen years old this year, and she was the same age as these young female navy soldiers, but she would never superficially look at a person's appearance.

In contrast, she was more concerned about whether the newly arrived Colonel Heiko would have the courage to make some changes to give this lifeless broken branch base a new lease of life.

"Hey, here!"

"That's right, that's Colonel Heike and them, hurry up and stand up!"

"Queue, queue!"

There was a sudden commotion in front of the team, and the navies, who were standing in chaos and disorder, began to stand in formations, and Tina saw from a distance through the gap in the crowd that a group of people were walking towards the training ground under the leadership of Captain Ibuprofen.

It's finally here......

Tina's face was solemn, and she also stood in a military posture, her eyes kept falling on the passenger, and as the distance narrowed, she suddenly frowned, and realized that something was wrong.

The figures of those people didn't seem to be as strange as expected, and even faintly familiar......

…………

The other side.

Heiko, who led Vito and the others to the high platform of the training ground, was observing the naval soldiers in the training ground while listening to Captain Ibuprofen in front of him introducing the relevant specific situation.

"At present, our 78 branch bases, the number of soldiers below the second lieutenant level, a total of 404 people, except for sick leave and personal leave who are not at the base, the number of people who should arrive today is 380 people, and you can count the number of people present according to the roster I prepared."

That's a lot......

Heiko was a little disappointed in his heart, he knew that the 78 branch was incomplete, but he didn't expect the scale to shrink to this extent.

There are only more than 400 people, and even a standard warship of the headquarters is not enough, but it is a great voyage, and he has the impression that even some branches of the four seas have more than 1,000 people.

Vito, who was listening silently in the back, also raised his eyebrows, and his attention was a little off, but he simply felt that the number of people sounded a little unlucky......

"In addition to me, there are two captains, six lieutenants, and ten second lieutenants in the base, all of whom have already arrived, and the two majors who were originally going out have also made a special trip because of your summoning order."

Captain Ibuprofen paused at this, and secretly glanced at Colonel Heike's face, as if he was hesitating something, and Heiko had already noticed this, and immediately snorted, and said unhappily:

"Don't help hide it, let's say, where is my deputy, Lieutenant Colonel Ruhr, the deputy base leader of this base?"
