"Colonel Roman!"

"Good morning, Colonel Roman— "

The military is a very straightforward place: the strong rise, the weak fall! With enough military merit, you can earn everyone's respect.

Roman, who wiped out ten pirate crews in just half a month, is definitely a prominent figure at the Marine Headquarters during this period. First, Parachuting Colonel, leaving everyone puzzled; then, he led a group of "Second-generation Marine" in a frenzied crackdown on pirates, achieving remarkable results.

In any case: any navy that can catch pirates is a good navy!

"Boss, when do we leave?"

Facing the impatient Captain Borgin... no, it should be Major Borgin, Roman gave him a strange look:

"Weren't you... going to Sabaody 'relax'?"

"Women are nowhere near as fun as One Piece!"

!

What kind of wild and lewd words are these? But since his men are all "eager to fight," Roman won't refuse.

That's it:

"Go find Isca Colonel Iska and work with her to prepare the supplies and paperwork for the voyage. — Then we'll set off!"

Rumors of Sengoku's 'retirement' have already spread to the Marine Headquarters, and it's estimated that the day when Aokiji and Akainu will engage in a fierce ten-day duel on Punk Hazard is not far off.

Roman had already asked Garp, and if he wanted to go and 'watch', he would need to be at least a general.

Roman, having already mastered the manifestation of Armament Haki, should be strong enough, but his military achievements are lacking.

Very well, let's randomly select a group of unlucky pirates to 'level up'.

Pirate: Don't come any closer!!

In short, with Roman leading the Team 211 on their voyage, the pirates on the high seas are about to face another bloody storm! But before that:

"Colonel Roman, we have reached our objective!"

Near a small island off the Red Line, the warship stopped to await the arrival of the new Lieutenant 'Selke-An'.

"Boss,"

Polkin Borgin tied in a ponytail, gazed curiously at the island.

"Why didn't this colleague board the ship at Marine Headquarters, but instead went to a place like this..."

"You're asking me? Who should I ask?"

?!

"Okay, you're the boss, so you call the shots."

Just as Borgin was speechless with exasperation, a white 'strange bird' flew towards the warship! This caused everyone on deck to frown.

This doesn't look like a natural creature at all; rather, it looks like:

Ability to create things?

Splash splash~~

Just as everyone was wondering, the strange bird disintegrated. A beautiful girl with medium-length orange hair landed on the deck, and her curvaceous figure instantly drew everyone's attention to Roman.

Who would have thought? You always seem like a straight-laced man who's indifferent to women, but it turns out you're keeping a mistress... no, I mean, a mistress on a gold island.

"Hmm... Roman."

Faced with a group of Marines giving her strange looks, even the usually cheerful Nami felt a little awkward. After all, she used to be a pirate who would run away at the sight of Marines, and now they were her colleagues...

It's so awkward no matter how I think about it.

"Ignore them," Roman waved his hand. "Just treat them as my puppet creations."

?

"Colonel, those words are too hurtful to our brothers! Have we been reduced to the level of puppets?"

Facing a second-generation heir who was wailing loudly, Roman waved his hand dismissively.

"Three extra hours of training!"

??

In an instant, all the marines immediately straightened their backs, pulled in their stomachs, and lifted their buttocks! They transformed into clay sculptures and wooden statues, wishing they were puppets themselves.

Let me introduce you:

Roman turned to face the navy personnel standing at attention on the deck and gestured to Nami beside him.

"This is Marine Ensign Serk An, who will be serving as my second-in-command on this ship from now on. Please give him a round of applause."

Smack! Smack! Smack!

A group of marines immediately burst into thunderous applause, Nami embarrassed and at a loss for words.

The boss has spoken, who dares not applaud? Do you think the training time is too short?

"This is Major Borgin, in charge of all miscellaneous tasks and combat."

... You have the bigger fist, so whatever you say goes.

The blond-haired Borgin rolled his eyes.

"This is Lieutenant Colonel Isca, who is in charge of all combat and miscellaneous tasks."

What use is a colonel like you?

However, Nami took the opportunity to thoroughly examine the beautiful young lieutenant colonel:

She had short, orange-red hair, wore sunglasses, and had delicate, soft features. Her slender figure was accentuated by a white naval female officer's uniform, and her long, enviable legs were visible beneath a pair of cropped trousers. Black boots with gold trim perfectly covered her calves.

Hiss~~~ You'll see, Roman, just you wait until tonight!

Look at my fist, as big as a cup!

Never mind, let's get down to business first.

"So what is my task?"

In response to Nami's question, Roman pointed to the sails.

"Command the ships and destroy the pirates."

"... Isn't this the same as before?"

Faced with Nami's surprised words, Roman was speechless. "So, how dare the Straw Hat crew call themselves a pirate crew after all this time...? Look at what they've done since setting sail! A pirate crew more eager to fight pirates than the Navy is just ridiculous."

"In short, the warships are now in your command."

·······

"Second Lieutenant An, please give instructions!"

"Turn the steering wheel to left, engage the paddle wheels for acceleration—"

"Yes!"

Once Nami became familiar with the warship's structure and performance, she immediately demonstrated her powerful navigational abilities! She instantly won over a group of unconvinced marines. Under Nami's command, the warship increased its speed by more than a third, leaving everyone convinced of its superiority.

Based on this alone, Nami's position on the ship is unshakeable. Moreover:

"Boss, the enemy has four pirate ships."

Looking at the sea not far away, and seeing that his speed was no match for the Marine warship behind him, and instead that four pirate ships were turning around and rushing towards him, Borgin sighed with a bit of regret.

"Looks like we'll have to let some of the pirates escape today."

"How is that possible?"

Roman stood up and stretched his shoulders. "With me and Second Lieutenant An Na... An here, none of them will escape!"

?!

"An! Second Lieutenant An..."

Roman walked up to Nami and slapped her shoulders with both hands, utterly speechless.

"Lieutenant Serk- Second Lieutenant An!"

"Huh? Huh... Oh, yes, Roman— "

'You better concentrate!'

Faced with Roman's gaze, Nami clasped her hands together and blinked, trying to get away with being cute.

'Who can get used to suddenly having to use a pseudonym?'

'Get used to it quickly! Don't give yourself away...'

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Turning to look at Borgin, who was suddenly coughing violently, the newly promoted blond major looked up at the sky. Could you two tone down your flirting a little? We're all watching and witnessing your lovey-dovey antics! —Actually, bringing family members on a warship is strictly prohibited, but unfortunately, Roman is the one in charge on this ship.

Moreover, the majority of the second-generation rich kids on board are not exactly law-abiding citizens. After all, as long as the captain can lead everyone to victory, isn't that enough? As for their private lives... there are plenty of Rear Admiral Vice Admiral with all sorts of quirks.

"Boss,"

Just like how these second-generation rich kids prefer to call Roman "boss" instead of "Colonel Roman".

"The enemy has entered the range of our artillery. If we don't open fire soon, we'll be shelled."

"Yes, Second Lieutenant An, take down these pirates!"

In response to Roman's order, Nami untied "The Art of the Thief" from her waist and opened it. As she turned to the page with flashing Lightning Flash, she gently pressed her hand on the page, and the sky above the pirate ships opposite immediately began to darken.

"What's going on?!"

Why is there something above our heads—

"Damn it, why did things have to change at this time..."

On the four pirate ships that were charging menacingly towards them, Captain Milton, with a Milton of 75 million, and several of his officers looked up in astonishment at the sky. The clouds were shifting and changing, and layers of alluring electric snakes began to spread and writhe through the gaps in the dark clouds, gathering from small streams into a vast, cascading waterfall of light—a long, bright, and dazzling chain of Inazuma! Then:

Boom!!

Inazuma struck suddenly, instantly hitting a pirate ship. Amidst screams, more than a dozen charred pirates were sent flying.

And this wasn't just one bolt of lightning, but ten, even dozens! The continuous barrage of lightning instantly enveloped the four pirate ships in a storm of Inazuma.

Crackle!...

"With thunder, shatter the darkness."

With a clenched fist from Nami, who was draped in a Justice Coat, the fate of the four pirate ships was sealed. The marines on the warships, ready for battle, gaped, looking completely petrified.

"Is it... that... intense?"

Borgin scratched his blonde hair, never expecting the eldest son's wife to be so fierce! However:

"Boss, sister-in-law... cough cough, is Second Lieutenant An Logia user?"

Roman answered Borgin's question without batting an eye.

"No, Second Lieutenant An ate the 'Dream Come True Fruit'."

???

I'm not well-educated, do I even know Devil Fruit?

This is even more ridiculous than your own 'Omni Fruit', boss!!

P. S.: That's all for today. I'm taking a break... I'll maybe do a quick post in the book review section when I have time, maybe try to boost its popularity... cough
