Chapter 23: Chapter 23
"Do you want to die? Idiot from the Rear Admiral family."
Luffy glared at the bastard with dead fish eyes.
He acted as if he had no background, pretending to be innocent!
"Hiss~ Rear Admiral?! From the headquarters?"
Gavin and Binz both took a breath, but soon they looked at Luffy with even more shock.
If the son of a Rear Admiral's family said that Luffy had a strong background, he must be at least a Vice Admiral level.
With a Vice Admiral as a backer, it's no wonder that he able to enter the elite training camp at such a young age.
"Hey, hey, hey, don't look at me like that, I'm the real deal, I got in by my own ability.
Among the new recruits this year, my strength is the best."
Luffy knew what they were thinking without having to guess, and quickly spoke out to prove himself.
He is not just a second-generation who can only rely on background, his own strength is also very strong
"Ah, ha-ha, sorry, I didn't mean it like that."
Gavin quickly explained himself. Hearing the other party say that he was the best in the recruit camp, he no longer doubted it. After all, he can find out if he ask around.
If one just brag about it, it will be embarrassing.
Binz thought so too.
After knowing that neither of them was that kind of person, everyone chatted more enthusiastically.
After that, the four of them went to other dormitories together.
Most of the students were very friendly, and some of them were a little cold but polite.
Regardless of their personalities, when they first joined the elite camp, everyone at least maintained a friendly appearance....
Time passed quickly, and it was the next day in a blink of an eye.
At 5:30 in the morning, the alarm clock rang on time.
Although they had rested for half a month, it was not so easy to change the habits of a whole year.
The moment they heard the alarm clock, they immediately turned over and got up. They began to dress and wash in an orderly manner, and finally folded the bed and left the dormitory together.
The elite training camp is a 6-year system. Except for Luffy and his class, the students of the other 5 classes had already lined up in the training yard.
When Luffy and his classmates arrived, they did not see Zephyr.
There was only an unknown instructor who was directing all the new students to line up.
Because he was the shortest, Luffy was put in the first row without any dispute.
At 5:47 in the morning, all the students were present.
"Everyone, turn right! 300 laps warm-up, start!"
The instructor gave an order, and everyone turned around in unison.
However, after hearing that they had to run 300 laps and it was just a warm-up, some of the guys who were just filling in the numbers broke out in a cold sweat.
However, the instructor did not give them a chance to regret and took the lead in running.
After running 300 laps at the speed of a 100-meter sprint, Luffy turned around and secretly observed, and was surprised to find that the number of people in the team was actually reduced by one-sixth.
'Damn, there are too many people who are just filling in the numbers or using backdoors.
So many people have been laid off before it even starts. I'm afraid there won't even be 40 left in 6 years. '
He was really speechless. The daily training of ordinary marines in the headquarters requires them to run 200 laps within an hour.
This is only a little higher than the requirements of ordinary marines. If you can't even complete this, how can you get into the elite camp!
When he was madly complaining in his heart, there was a sudden cry of surprise from the team.
He quickly turned his head and found that it was the chief instructor Zephyr who came.
This is a good friend of Grandpa Garp from the same period, so Luffy is naturally very familiar with him.
He saw Zephyr, and Zephyr saw him as well.
But Zephyr just glanced at him lightly, and didn't hug him or touch his head with a smile like before.
On the contrary, Zephyr stood in front of everyone seriously, looked around and said:
"Let me introduce myself. I am Zephyr, your chief instructor for the next 6 years. You can also call me Mr. Zephyr.
I have seen your performance just now. Look around you.
Such trash can't even do a simple warm-up.
With this little bit of ability, can you join the elite camp?"
Listening to Zephyr's rebuke, many people showed indignant expressions.
It was obviously those bastards who were not strong enough, how could they be blamed.
They completed this warm-up very well.
Zephyr also saw their dissatisfaction. He forced a sarcastic smile and said loudly:
"Are you dissatisfied? It doesn't matter, soon you will also be one of those trash.
Because in my opinion, most of you are just like them, you can't hold on for a few days, and you will be kicked out by me.
Go back to where you came from.
By that time, you will become the trash you look down on now.
Compared with people who are truly capable, you are nothing but trash that is not worth mentioning."
After saying this, most of the students were really angry.
They are all geniuses in their respective branches, praised and favoured by everyone from marines to base commanders.
Only then are they qualified to be sent to the elite camp of the headquarters for further studies.
Now being called trash and garbage, how can these geniuses who are used to being proud bear it.
But before any of the fools jumped out to refute, Zephyr started to call people out directly.
"You, you, you, step out!"
He pointed at three people in a row. They were the most excited when he was talking.
The three of them didn't flinch at all after being pointed at. They just walked out.
"You seem very unconvinced, then prove it to me with your strength.
Attack me and prove that you are not useless!"
Zephyr hooked his finger and taunted them to the maximum.
The three green-headed guys actually looked at each other, and no matter who was the former admiral or something else, they just swung their fists at him.
Luffy in the team shouted "Fuck", thinking that these guys are really talented.
Things turned out just as he thought, the three green-headed guys who didn't even master the six styles were punched into sleep by Zephyr one by one. They didn't even last 10 seconds in total, which was really out of line.
"Trash, is this your strength?"
Clapping his hands, Zephyr said disdainfully without even looking at the three people on the ground.
But this time, after he finished speaking, when his eyes swept across the team, everyone lowered their heads, and no one dared to look at him again.
Except for a certain dwarf.
Luffy: Stare————
"Student Luffy, you seem unconvinced, do you want to come up and give it a try?"
"No, no, no, I'm convinced."
Luffy shook his head in fear, and then hurriedly lowered his head. Zephyr snorted coldly and didn't care about it anymore.
