Moreover, for one of the Five Elders, the highest authority of the World Government, to make such a call over a mere Vice Admiral-level combat force...
What does this signify?
The internal combat forces of the World Government are also in crisis!
To maintain stability among member countries and to deal with the frequent uprisings of the Revolutionary Army everywhere, the World Government's operable manpower has already been exhausted...
Sengoku sometimes really wished that this group of Heavenly Celestial Dragons would step down gracefully, dissolve the current World Government as soon as possible, and have the member countries form a new World Government...
"Execute the order, Sengoku."
Saint Saturn also ignored Sengoku's helplessness, only insisting he execute the order.
"..."
Sengoku frowned, thinking about it over and over, finally contemplating a backup candidate, making a direct call to the Navy Training Camp: "Zephyr, do you have time? Are you still training students? Is Admiral Kagura there? Where is he training now? How is the training progress?"
That's right.
Akihara Kagura got promoted.
After all, on Sky Island, Akihara Kagura's performance was obvious to all.
Balancing competence and contributions...
Coupled with the background of the Navy's major recruitment...
And possessing the Logia-type·Rumble-Rumble Fruit within him...
From a Lieutenant at the Headquarters, promoted to Vice Admiral of the Navy Headquarters, Akihara Kagura has already jumped eight ranks, becoming a hot new favorite at the Navy base;
Based on his strength and battle achievements, along with the backdrop of major recruitment, he was directly promoted from a Headquarters Lieutenant to a Headquarters Vice Admiral, becoming a new Admiral candidate.
If there is a vacancy in the Admiral's position in the future...
Akihara Kagura is likely the most hopeful candidate to be promoted to a Headquarters Admiral.
Now...
Akihara Kagura is training on an island specifically for his cultivation.
This young navy man is standing by the sea, holding a dilapidated giant warship in his hand, slowly lifting the warship before suddenly tossing it away.
The next moment!
Akihara Kagura's palm rose, an overwhelming Armament Haki surged out, destroying the flying warship into a puff of air!
Whether it's Armament Haki or Observation Haki, for Akihara Kagura, they can both be cultivated using Chakra, which he has always been training for.
This training period in the Pirate World has allowed him to catch up quickly, to the extent that even the system's rewards can't keep up with his Haki training progress.
