I Want to Fight Ten

In training grounds of all sizes, soldiers were sweating under the scorching sun, pouring their youthful energy.

Mo Xingchen, having somehow acquired a coconut, was leisurely observing the soldiers training in the field from under a tree by the training ground, a straw in his mouth.

It felt like a university senior, enjoying a popsicle, watching the freshmen struggling through their military training, drenched in sweat, and even offering unsolicited commentary and jokes.

He completely ignored the soldiers in the field who were glaring at him with gritted teeth, their eyes practically spitting fire. They probably would have swarmed him and beaten him up if their officer had given the order.

"That middle-aged uncle with purple short hair, who's burly and shouting at the soldiers to speed up, must be the future Admiral Black Arm Zephyr. Yo, I didn't expect the future Admiral Aokiji to be classmates with the future Revolutionary Army leader Dragon, and also Onigumo and Momonga, these future Powerful Vice Admirals."

Leaning against the large tree, sipping coconut juice, Mo Xingchen muttered to himself.

"But now, they're all just little brothers. None of them can fight. Hmph! I could take on ten of them!"

As Mo Xingchen was lost in his own fantasies, watching these future Pillars of the Navy finish their basic training and begin their one-on-one combat practice, Zephyr noticed the cadets' eyes repeatedly glancing towards the resting area under the tree. He frowned and followed their gaze.

Good heavens! The sight made his face flush, and the muscles in his brow twitched into a "#" shape. There sat a soldier in beach shorts and a floral shirt, wearing a navy cap, leaning against a tree, holding a coconut, with his legs crossed. His flip-flops bobbed up and down with his restless leg. Zephyr immediately roared, "Soldier under the tree, get over here!"

The cadets, who were about to start their combat practice, stopped and followed Instructor Zephyr's gaze towards Mo Xingchen. Hearing the roar, Mo Xingchen looked around, realized he was being called, and jogged over to stand before Zephyr.

"Name, position, affiliation!"

"Reporting, Officer! Mo Xingchen, Headquarters Captain, affiliated with Vice Admiral Garp's warship, serving as a Communications Soldier!"

Garp? Thinking about the timing, it was about time for him to report back to headquarters. Zephyr, realizing Mo Xingchen was an old friend's subordinate and had just returned to headquarters with no training assignments, calmed down considerably. He looked closely at Mo Xingchen and asked, "Officer? You don't know me? A new recruit?"

"Yes, Officer. I was conscripted by Vice Admiral Garp in Loguetown this time!"

Zephyr's interest was piqued. Having known Garp for so many years, he knew that while Garp was usually carefree, he was fundamentally proud. Ordinary people wouldn't catch his eye. Moreover, for a newly enlisted recruit to be given the rank of Captain and assigned as a Communications Soldier indicated he intended to nurture this young man.

But why hadn't he called me all these days, saying he was sending someone to the training camp? Something's not right! His eyes darted, and he decided to test this new recruit.

"My name is Zephyr! Marine Headquarters Admiral, currently the Elite Training Camp Head Instructor. Although you are not my soldier, now that you've joined the Navy, you must follow the rules!

One, disheveled appearance. Navy regulations clearly state that Generals of Colonel rank and above may dress freely but must wear a Justice Coat. Soldiers below Colonel rank must be uniformly dressed! You are not on leave now, where is your military uniform?

Two, disrupting training. Although you currently have no training duties, you cannot interfere with others. With you slacking off like this, how can others concentrate on training?

Considering you are a new recruit, I will not punish you excessively. They are about to begin combat practice, so you will choose an opponent yourself and complete the training."

If you find this book good, remember to add it to your bookshelf to avoid losing it next time.

"Yes! Admiral Zephyr!"

Mo Xingchen turned to look at these future Big Shots, thinking to himself, who should I beat up?

"I'll take on ten of them!"

Hearing this, the cadets below erupted. One by one, they glared at Mo Xingchen with righteous indignation, wishing they could tear him apart. Those with short tempers, like Onigumo and Doberman, even drew their swords, ready to attack. At this moment, Zephyr raised his hands to the cadets and said with a smile:

"Good kid, you've got guts! But I'm afraid you'll get beaten to death, and then Garp will come looking for trouble with me. Kuzan, you spar with him! Remember to go easy, and give our new recruit a good lesson, so people don't laugh at our training camp for having no one."

He thought to himself, Kuzan now has the Logia Type Ice-Ice Fruit, plus the awakening of his Two-Color Haki, and has already firmly secured the top spot in the training camp, reaching the strength of a Headquarters Major General. No matter how talented you are, you'll lose. Heh, let you experience the harshness of society, and see if you're still so arrogant!

Mo Xingchen shrugged indifferently, spreading his hands.

"You arrange it, I'm easy."

At this moment, everyone else also moved aside, clearing a space for the upcoming match. They weren't in a hurry to train; they just wanted to see how this kid, whose arrogance reached the heavens, would get beaten. After all, they were all elites. Who couldn't hear the Head Instructor's underlying meaning? If Kuzan dared to hold back, let alone lose, even if he went easy, hmph, their future days would be miserable!

Kuzan had not yet experienced the Ohara incident, and his sense of justice was still burning hot. He was currently a proper hot-blooded youth, but he hadn't lost any of the pride a monster should have. He stood casually to the side of the arena, looking at Mo Xingchen.

"Ara ara, Young Man, I've eaten a Logia Type Devil Fruit. Before joining the training camp, I was already a Headquarters Colonel, so I'm technically your superior. To prevent you from losing too badly, I'll allow you to make the first move."

Mo Xingchen smiled, thinking, He's actually quite nice! Then I'll go easy.

"Swish!"

A gust of airflow swept past, and the next second, Mo Xingchen's figure appeared directly in front of Kuzan. Kuzan didn't expect his speed to be so fast. When his Observation Haki sensed it, he had already appeared before him. He looked at him with slight astonishment and subconsciously raised his hands, preparing to defend.

At this moment, Mo Xingchen had already completed a 360-degree spin in mid-air. Using the momentum, he kicked Kuzan's jaw, instantly sending Kuzan flying towards the sky like a Skyrocket.

Mo Xingchen, however, thought to himself, The people in the pirate world are really unscientific. What do they eat to grow so tall? I don't understand! I really don't understand at all! I wanted to properly cosplay Lotus Blossom, but my height wasn't enough. But my aerial 360-degree spinning kick should be quite cool, right!

Mo Xingchen adjusted his position in the air. After landing, he slightly crouched his knees, pushed off with force, and shot straight towards the airborne Kuzan! With a "boom" sound of a sonic boom, all that could be seen with the naked eye was a blur of a shadow instantly catching up to the flying Kuzan!
