Chapter 25 Assessment
In the following days, Navy Branch 16 and the Conomi Islands were quietly digesting this harvest.
After Miss Nami’s careful calculation, this income includes not only the pirate bounty, the pirate ship, but also some of the pirate treasures.
Although they were hidden very deeply by those cunning pirates, and if they were not careful, they might have almost sold the pirate ship together, but with the help of Miss Thieving Cat, valuable things could not be hidden no matter how deep they were hidden. Open her eyes that exude a strange light.
They were all found one by one!
As mentioned just now, some of these ships must be sold.
Not to mention that the Konomi Islands and the 16th Naval Branch do not need so many ships. Some of them are not suitable for civilian and naval military use.
Therefore, it is better to sell it and buy a new one when the time comes.
The Konomi Islands will leave part of it as a cargo ship, and the 16th Navy Branch will also leave part of it as a naval warship. Then the coating will be changed.
Although naval warships are all built and ordered uniformly, no matter what model they are.
Strictly speaking, pirate ships are not suitable for use by the navy.
But there is nothing we can do now. We can't find a suitable navy warship supplier, so we can only make do with it at this stage.
If you want a warship, you can either secretly build it yourself, buy it from a black merchant, or order it from the Navy Headquarters.
He built it by himself, not to mention that he didn't have a shipbuilder. Even if he did, he didn't have blueprints for naval warships. Even though there are so many naval warships on the sea, the technical content of naval warships is not low.
Especially large naval warships!
Moreover, it is illegal to build naval warships privately on the sea.
If you are looking for black traders...the price is not guaranteed, and to find black traders, you have to go to the Grand Channel or the New World to find it easier.
As for ordering from the Navy Headquarters?
Please, the 16th branch of the navy is invaded by pirates every year and needs funds every year. Where does the money come from to order so many navy warships?
Didn’t this tell the Navy Headquarters that the 16th Navy Branch had money?
How can I ask for subsidies then?
You must know that even the five existing warships of the 16th Navy Branch were all brought together by asking Sean for help in the past few years and reporting losses themselves.
Of course~
This time, we can take this opportunity to use the damaged navy warship to ask the navy headquarters to add another one.
By then, the 16th branch of the Navy will have 6 naval warships, plus the pirate ship-coated naval warships. It can be said that the 16th branch of the Navy, just in terms of the number of naval warships, can be called the number of naval warships in the waters near the entrance of the great waterway in the East China Sea. The strongest naval branch.
As for whether there is a naval branch in the other half of the sea that is stronger than the 16th Naval Branch, Xia Che doesn't know.
only.
This strength is the same as that of the previous overlord of the East China Sea, the Klik Pirates. They are known as five thousand pirates and fifty pirate ships, but when they encounter a strong man, they can be chopped to pieces by just one person.
Without hard power, no matter how much equipment there is, it's useless~
Even strictly speaking, the number of sailors under the 16th branch of the Navy is still less than that of the Creek Pirates.
Of course, the Navy branch has been recruiting sailors during this time and has never stopped. Recruitment slogans have been posted. There has also been a craze for becoming a navy in the Conomi Islands. It is estimated that even Smoker has heard about it. .
For example, now...
"Bang~"
The door was suddenly opened.
Xia Che, who was planning the development of the naval strength of the Conomi Islands, raised his head and looked at Smoker who ran in without even knocking on the door. He took a sip of the black tea that Robin Xiaomi poured for him and said helplessly, " Senior Smoker, you need to change your temper. Fortunately, I'm not doing anything in there now. If I were doing something in there, it wouldn't be too embarrassing. No wonder you were sent down to this weakest sea by the superiors. You are so sophisticated in the world. You have to learn more from me.”
"..." Upon hearing Xia Che's words, Smoker's face, which was originally calm, suddenly turned dark.
Learn to learn?
What can I learn from you?
Fish in troubled waters, deceive the superiors and deceive the inferiors, and defraud funds?
Or should I learn from you to catch pirates?
What's more...
How can you, a fellow who was also demoted, be better than him?
And what else do you want to do in there? Smoker pointed angrily at the boy with pink hair and a melon face, and said, "This guy heard that you are recruiting the navy here and hopes to join the 16th branch of the navy."
As soon as he finished speaking, the boy beside him stood up consciously and looked at Xia Che with excitement.
"Colonel Schach, my name is Kerby, please let me join the 16th branch of the Navy. I hope to become a navy as powerful as Colonel Schach and catch all pirates."
Although he didn't know what happened at that time, when he woke up and saw that everyone had been arrested, he guessed that they must have been arrested by the two marines at that time.
It's incredible that only two navies captured so many pirates.
Especially after learning later that the male Marine was actually the base commander of the 16th Navy Branch, Kerby believed that... Colonel Schach must be a very powerful Navy man. Therefore, when he heard that the 16th Navy Branch was recruiting sailors, he kept thinking Want to try it.
But I can never find an opportunity, or I am afraid... of not being recognized.
After hearing that they were going to be sent back to their own island, he had been very nervous. Finally, he plucked up the courage and asked Colonel Smoker before he was brought over by Colonel Smoker.
However.
"Kebi..." Upon hearing this name, Xia Che raised his head in surprise.
After looking at the pink hair, he guessed who the kid in front of him was.
Unexpectedly, this guy was also brought to the pirates this time.
He raised his eyelids and ignored it because he heard Kebi say "Catch all the pirates!" 】 And Smoker, who had a mocking look on his face, his eyes fell on Kebi, crossed his hands in front of his chin, and said with a serious face, "Although the 16th Navy Branch is very short of sailors, our 16th Navy Branch recruits all the sailors. They are elite soldiers and strong generals, and they recruit men from the sea, but you..."
Although he hadn't finished speaking, Kebi already understood what he meant, and lowered his head in disappointment.
It is normal for a coward like him to be rejected.
But thinking that he had finally worked up the courage this time, if he gave up like this, he would definitely regret it very much. He took a deep breath again and looked firmly at Colonel Xia Che in front of him. When he was about to say something .
At this time.
"But as a naval colonel, for the sake of the justice of the navy, I am willing to give you this opportunity." As if he guessed what Kebi wanted to say, Xia Che interrupted him directly and looked at Kebi again, with the tone of a naval colonel. , said, "As long as you pass the exclusive assessment of the 16th Navy Branch, you can become a member of the 16th Navy Branch."
The words fell.
"???"
Robin, who was keeping quiet and downplaying his presence, raised his head in confusion at this moment and looked at Xia Che.
When will the sailors of the 16th Navy Branch be assessed?
Why didn’t she know?
Aren’t they all the same set of recruitment assessments handed down from the Navy Headquarters?
It’s just that the requirements for branch sailors are slightly lower.
now.
Even Smoker, who was watching boredly, turned his head curiously. Why does the 16th Navy branch have its own assessment?
To be honest, as a naval colonel who was also transferred from his headquarters, Smoker was still very curious about what tests this naval colonel who was more talented than himself would set.
"I, I, I..." Hearing that Colonel Xia Che was actually willing to give him a chance to take the test, Kebi suddenly became excited, clenched his fists with both hands, and shouted loudly, "I will work hard! Thank you Colonel Xia Che for giving me I will definitely not let Colonel Xia Che down with this opportunity.”
"Very good!" Xia Che nodded with satisfaction, his hands still crossed, but his expression became serious again. Looking at Kebi in front of him, he once again exuded the aura of a naval colonel, and asked with a solemn expression, "In that case, let me do the assessment myself!"
As soon as these words fell.
Kirby:? ? ?
Colonel Xia Che personally conducted the assessment?
Before he could react.
"Please listen to the question!" Under the gaze of everyone, Xia Che asked directly, "If there is a large-scale war between the navy and the pirates, and you are also on the battlefield, at this moment, the war has come to an end. , all the goals of the navy have been achieved, but the pirates are still not eliminated. However, at this time, the battlefield is littered with corpses. You see your companions and people you are familiar with on the battlefield dying one by one. You are grieving in your heart. At this moment, you will What kind of reaction?”
