Yun Ye's attitude at that moment was arrogant to the extreme.
But when those words came from someone who had been oppressed, they made people's blood boil!
Especially the new recruits who had just been taught a lesson. Their blood surged with passion, and if not for the unbearable pain wracking their bodies, they would have wanted to struggle back to their feet and fight alongside Yun Ye.
While the new recruits were fired up, the senior recruits felt thoroughly humiliated.
"A mere new recruit dares to be this arrogant!"
One of the senior recruits could not stand it any longer. He rushed straight at Yun Ye, fist clenched.
Yun Ye used the same tactic. With another flash of his body, he kicked the Senior Recruit flying, sending him crashing into Jace, who had just been trying to get back up!
Jace cried out in pain, and the two of them rolled into a heap...
"Get him! Don't be afraid! He's alone—we can bury him under sheer numbers!"
"Everyone, attack together!"
Seeing Yun Ye take them down one kick at a time, the senior recruits realized he was a tough opponent and decided to swarm him.
Whoosh...
The senior recruits sneered as they charged Yun Ye in a wave.
Let's see how you fight all of us now!
However, they still underestimated Yun Ye's strength.
With each flicker of Yun Ye's figure, another person was kicked flying.
Before long, a large number of people had fallen across the field.
Seeing that no one could last even a single exchange against Yun Ye, all the senior recruits grew somewhat fearful.
This was not their first time doing something like this, but they had never encountered such a vicious new recruit before...
He was practically beating them like they were helpless children!
"Seniors, are we continuing?"
Yun Ye looked toward the senior recruits and spoke in an indifferent tone.
Yun Ye's tone was calm, but to every Senior Recruit, it sounded incomparably arrogant and domineering!
"You..."
Jace wanted to angrily rebuke Yun Ye, but when he met Yun Ye's calm gaze, he forcibly swallowed the rest of his words.
Yun Ye swept his gaze around and said, "We're all comrades. Why do the seniors have to do this? The instructors will be here soon. If this continues, we'll only make ourselves a laughingstock in front of them. How about we let this end here?"
In this situation, it would not do to take things too far. Leaving the senior recruits some dignity would also make it easier to win them over in the future...
If he offended them too severely and they shouted and fought every time they met, how was he supposed to build influence within the Navy later on?
Therefore, Yun Ye did not want to push things too far.
The senior recruits looked at one another and felt that Yun Ye's words made some sense.
In truth, though, they had simply been beaten into submission. They had never seen such a brutal new recruit, one who beat them as though they were children...
But just as they were about to say something, someone rushed over from the distance at incredible speed.
Roy had begun watching Yun Ye from the moment Yun Ye kicked Jace flying. Afterward, Yun Ye displayed his strength by crushing every Senior Recruit with a single kick, and Roy could no longer suppress the battle intent in his heart.
He had not expected such a formidable person among the new recruits!
"New recruit, how about a fight?"
Roy streaked over at tremendous speed. Looking at Yun Ye, battle intent surged from his body!
The senior recruits lying on the ground all trembled inwardly when they heard that voice.
"That voice... it's Roy!"
"Roy is actually making a move too?"
"Haha, let's see how that new recruit brat keeps acting so smug now!"
"Roy is an expert already selected to join the Elite Camp. His strength is unfathomable! That new recruit is definitely no match for Roy!"
The senior recruits grew excited again, and when they looked at Yun Ye, their gazes were filled with pity.
With Roy targeting him, Yun Ye was probably in for a miserable time!
On the other side, the instructors also revealed interested expressions.
Maynard smiled. "I misjudged him. That kid is quite strong!"
Lydon added, "But Roy has made his move. I wonder how long he can hold out? Ten minutes?"
Mandel chuckled. "If he can force Roy to use his Devil Fruit ability, then he can be proud of himself!"
Listening to his colleagues, Kage grumbled inwardly.
Quite strong? Even if this kid joined the Elite Camp, he would still be among its very best!
How long can he hold out? Are you talking about Roy?
Right, Roy has a Zoan Devil Fruit too. He should be able to hold out for around ten minutes, then?
If his colleagues knew what Kage was grumbling about, they would definitely be full of question marks. Were they even talking about the same thing?
Yun Ye looked over and saw a burly young man with the distinctive build of someone from this world charging toward him at astonishing speed.
From the senior recruits' discussion, Yun Ye roughly learned a little about the man's identity.
An expert already selected for the Elite Camp? I wonder how strong he is. This is a good chance to test myself.
As Yun Ye considered this, he looked at Roy and said, "Private fighting isn't allowed in the Training Camp. Senior, you've already broken the rules. Are you still going to keep pressing the matter?"
"Do you think the instructors don't know about the fighting here? Then why do you think they are letting it continue?"
Roy sneered. "Let me tell you! The strong receive preferential treatment wherever they go!"
As he spoke, Roy stomped his foot. His figure seemed to vanish, and in the next instant, he appeared directly behind Yun Ye. He threw a savage punch downward like a heavy hammer!
Yun Ye's figure flashed as well, easily evading the attack. Looking at Roy, he smiled. "The strong receive preferential treatment?"
Roy did not look surprised. Judging by Yun Ye's earlier performance, he was certainly not someone who would be defeated so easily.
"That's right. The strong receive preferential treatment. Come on, try to defeat me, new recruit!"
Battle intent flashed in Roy's eyes. With a tap of his foot, his figure disappeared as if he had teleported.
He was incredibly fast. With another tap of his foot, he charged at Yun Ye once more.
"Who gave you the right to act so high and mighty?" Yun Ye's tone remained calm. This time, he did not dodge. Instead, his figure flashed as he moved to meet Roy head-on!
Boom!
Their fists collided through the air, and force blasted outward in all directions.
The next moment, both of them retreated at the same time.
"Not bad. I wasn't wrong about you—your strength really is impressive!"
Roy laughed heartily. As he burst forth, his speed increased by several degrees, and no one else could even catch sight of his figure.
However, Yun Ye's perception was powerful. His gaze moved along with Roy, locking onto his figure.
"Here!" Yun Ye threw a punch forward. In the next instant, Roy's figure abruptly appeared, throwing out a punch as well.
Boom!
The two clashed once again, and both were forced back!
"My turn now, Senior!"
Yun Ye smiled and abruptly stepped forward, reaching out with a fierce punch.
Roy's expression changed. He had not expected Yun Ye to be so fast as well, but his reaction was not slow. He tilted his head, narrowly avoiding the blow.
As he evaded, he twisted his body and whipped a kick toward Yun Ye's forehead.
Yun Ye raised his left hand to block it, then sneered. Clenching his right fist, he drove it toward Roy's chest!
