Chapter 24: A Year of Transition
A week later, the tragic CP9 assessment came to an end.
"I didn't expect that in the end, only three people qualified, is it because of this kid named Lu Qi?" At the beginning of the assessment, the mask examiner looked at Lu Qi, who had returned at the end, in shock.
At this point, Luci was in rags, and his clothes had turned into rags after the battle with Billy. Still, he stood by with a nonchalant expression, waiting for the results to be announced.
"Otono Owl, you have carefully planned to stealthily seize the key, and finally succeeded in bringing back the documents, qualified." The mask examiner looked at the round teenager and said.
The zipper on his mouth didn't open, and Otonai Owl nodded in acceptance, a flash of joy flashing in his eyes.
"Bruno, you have used your fruit ability to successfully obtain the documents, qualified. I'm sure you'll be able to thrive as an agent. Turning his gaze to the tall Bruno, the examiner knew exactly how terrifying the teenager was.
The corners of his mouth curled, and Bruno was happy that he had become a CP9.
Finally, he looked at Lu Qi with a complicated look, and the mask examiner only said a word; "Luki, qualified."
The grim-faced Arch didn't fluctuate at all, and still stood in place. But the pigeon on his shoulder, Hadley, nodded slightly, as if to respond for Luki.
"Then, you're going to be going into a year-long internship, and hopefully you'll be able to stay at CP9 eventually." The mask examiner's cold voice made it impossible to hear what he really thought.
"Homecoming, back to Justice Island!"

After a week, Ray and Caterina finally worked out the initial plan for the weather weapon, and only waited for the materials to be in place to start trying to make it.
"Owen, I'll ask you and Darwin to get the materials on paper." Ray handed over a few sheets of information written in hand. After eight days of getting along, they gradually became familiar with each other.
"Rest assured, we've got it covered." Owen replied confidently.
"William, I'll leave the launcher to you, I don't know when you'll be able to do it." Ray turned his head back to William, who was lying on the table writing and drawing.
Hearing Ray's question, William frowned, "I can't say for sure, you asked for the development of a new type of weapon that does not rely on gunpowder, I have never been in contact with it before, so I can only grope my way forward." ”
Ray, who had been prepared for a long time, was not surprised, and he and Caterina teamed up to make meteorological ammunition that could be used in real combat in a short period of time, and it was far more difficult to create than to innovate.
"No matter how difficult it is, we can definitely develop it." Ray said with a morale boost.

East China Sea, Dawn Island, Kolpo Mountain.
The morning dew lingered and dripped from the leaves and hit the head of the snail that had just woken up; The sound of birdsong came from the forest not far away, crisp and loud; The squirrel gets up early to comb its fur in the morning sun, its fluffy tail cocked larger than its body.
In a clearing in the forest, the dense trees have disappeared, and even the grass on the ground is hard to find. In this clearing, a wooden house stood quietly. Smoke rises from the dilapidated hut and drifts away in the breeze to a place where no one knows.
"Bastards, get up! The old lady doesn't raise waste wood that doesn't work. A sudden roar broke the silence, and Cali Dadan, armed with a large kitchen knife, kicked open the door of his men's room.
Getting up in a daze, one of the bandits rubbed his eyes that didn't want to be opened, "Boss, what time is it!" Let's sleep a little longer! ”
A slap gave his subordinates a "Daigo empowerment", which made him sober up from his confused state, and Dadan scolded: "A group of waste, children as young as Ace have already gotten up to go hunting, and you are still lazy in the bed?" Hurry up and chop ten bundles of firewood for each person today, or don't think about eating. ”
Not to mention the funny daily life of the bandits, Ace, who is hunting in the forest, is in some trouble.
"Damn, how could the Legig Tiger be so close to the bandits' den." Staring closely at the giant beast more than four meters tall in front of him, Ace didn't dare to relax in the slightest. His breathing was rapid due to the nervousness, and the sweat on his face kept dripping.
The Legtoothed Tiger didn't pay attention to the little man under his feet. It looked down, its heavy breath rolling up the dust on the ground.
The fishy smell came to his nose, but Ace didn't dare to make any moves, for fear of attracting the attention of the Tiger.
In the eyes of the Tiger, Ace is like a little mouse that is not enough to stuff his teeth. However, although the tiger does not hunt mice, it is likely to be killed with one claw.
There was a hint of banter in his eyes, and the wide claws of the two toothed tigers fell like the top of Mount Tai, and the huge momentum even made the leaves on the side shake.
His pupils dilated with fear, and he saw that Ace was about to turn into a meat pie, and at this critical moment, a figure suddenly blocked in front of him and stopped the attack.
At this moment, the man's back seemed to Ace as if a god had descended from heaven.
He took the huge claw with one hand, and the middle-aged man in front of him had incredible strength in his body. "Yo! Ace, grandpa has come to see you. The middle-aged man touched Ace's head with his other hand.
"Oh!" Although he was shocked by Karp, Ace's awkward personality made him reluctant to face his grandfather's kindness directly. In other words, this is Die Tsundere!
With a flick of his claw-holding arm, Karp lifted the tiger into the air and slammed it into a tree trunk not far away.
"Click!" The trunk of the tree snapped in response.
Struggling to get up, the Toothed Tiger looked in horror at the man, who was no bigger than his palm, and when he saw that Karp was no longer in pursuit, he wailed and turned to flee.
"Let's go back! Today, our grandfather and grandson have a good chat. Ignoring Ace's struggles, Karp grabbed him and put him on his shoulder and began to walk back.
"Bastard old man! Put me down! ”
"Hahaha!"

Fish-Man Island, Dragon Palace.
Princess Otohime and King Poseidon discussed it earnestly.
"Your Majesty, the World Government Conference is about to begin, and I hope to be able to collect signatures from the people who wish to move to the mainland, so that humanity can see our will." Otohime's face was full of determination.
After staring at it for a long time, Poseidon finally sighed: "Do you still want to do that?" You know it's a difficult road, and the hatred between humanity and us is irresolvable. But I also know that although you have a gentle personality, the decisions you make will never change, so let it go! I will support you. ”
"Hmm!" A spark of hope ignited in Otohime's eyes.

The first half of the Great Channel, Tung Island Magnetic Drum Island.
A female reindeer jumped out of the snow and disappeared with another puff of smoke.
In the castle on the snowy mountain, Dr. Hiluluk, who has a strange cross hairstyle, and Dr. Kureha, who is already 100 years old, sit by the fire and drink and chat.
"You haven't died after all these years!" Shiruruk laughed.
"After all these years, your medical skills are still like!" Kureha also revealed the shortcomings mercilessly.
"Hahaha!" Two gray-haired old men are reunited in this snowy weather.
