The Military Settles Down!
This high-level general meeting convened by the High Command had a tremendous impact on the entire army.
Especially the Vice Admiral rank.
This class has always been somewhat stagnant, because there are only three Admiral positions in each branch of the military, so most people face the awkward situation of having nowhere to rise.
Furthermore, given the limitations of talent, there's little prospect of further improvement.
Therefore, many people choose to lie down and coast along after being promoted to Vice Admiral, just getting by day by day.
However, the public announcement of the 'potential exploration for Life Return's and 'advanced Haki techniques' has shown them a new goal that allows them to continue to improve their strength.
The Emission of Armament Haki, the ability to penetrate and the Observation Haki Future Sight, are enough to transform an ordinary vice Vice Admiral into an elite among elites.
Not to mention the possibility of Life Return that could grant the ability to regenerate severed limbs.
However, many Vice Admiral first need to master the basics of Life Return; before that, not every Vice Admiral values the role of Life Return.
Firstly, it's quite difficult.
Secondly, aside from stopping bleeding, controlling hair loss, and improving digestion efficiency, it doesn't seem to be anything special.
But things are different now.
The value of Life Return was greatly enhanced in the minds of the Vice Admiral, and they even developed a "basic technique" called "Demon Slayer Breathing Technique" that allowed them to quickly understand and master Life Return.
Therefore, the Army, navy, Air Force did not train to become Vice Admiral Life Return.
They began to seek out former Pillars from the Demon Slayer Corps, such as Sanemi Shinazugawa, Kyojuro Rengoku Gyomei Himejima, Giyu Tomioka, Giyu Tomioka, Jigoro Kuwajima, to learn Breathing Technique.
The latter naturally wouldn't refuse, as this was their job; they were usually responsible for teaching soldiers Breathing Technique.
However, Gyomei Himejima, Giyu Tomioka, and the others were surprised to find that these Vice Admiral mastered the Breathing Technique at an astonishing speed.
Basically, all you need to do is demonstrate it to them, and then guide them on the breathing rhythm and explain the key points when they practice the Breathing Technique for the first time, and they will be able to learn the 'Total Concentration' of the Breathing Technique.
Then I'll explain the key points of 'Total Concentration and Constant' to them again.
So, during the second practice of the Breathing Technique, they can generally maintain a state of continuous and focused breathing. After they go back to sleep for a night, they will be able to completely maintain the Breathing Technique even during sleep.
These Vice Admiral were also adept at choosing the Breathing Technique style that best suited them.
To be honest.
Even Giyu Tomioka, the "Water Hashira" hailed as a genius, was deeply discouraged by these Vice Admiral from the Marine Headquarters.
Sanemi Shinazugawa, Gyomei Himejima, Kyojuro Rengoku, and others, being in the Vice Admiral Army Headquarters, suffered even greater psychological shock.
There's no way around it; everyone who gets promoted to Vice Admiral is a one-in-a-million genius. Even if there are some slackers among them, they are still considered exceptionally talented in the entire Sea Star.
If this were the Demon Slayer World, even Yoriichi Tsugikuni would probably have to call them masters.
Besides.
These Vice Admiral were also very serious about learning biology, and every month they would set aside two days to go to the Military Affairs Department building to receive instruction from Muzan Kibutsuji.
Throughout this process, no one discriminated against or questioned Muzan's identity or strength, because they clearly understood what was most important.
In his spare time, he also reads various biology books he has bought, especially those on human biology and self-healing systems.
They began to gradually learn what cells are, how cells are composed, and what the immune system, stress system, and repair system are.
Even someone as powerful as Edward Newgate has recently stopped touching 'Murakumogiri' and is instead spending his time in his kingdom with his sons, studying diligently under the guidance of several professional biology teachers.
At the same time, we practiced Breathing Technique and Life Return together.
Honestly, if Whitebeard could Life Return in the original story, his physical condition would definitely be many times better, at least comparable to Garp and Sengoku.
This can be considered one of the benefits of joining the system.
Otherwise, where would he learn about Life Return?
It could be said that the entire Sea Star military seemed to have become very quiet. All the Admiral and Vice Admiral were buried in their studies and training. Even the lazy Borsalino was pondering the penetration of Armament Haki, occasionally picking up a biology book to flip through.
This directly motivated the lower-ranking Rear Admiral, including major generals, Commodore generals, colonels, and lieutenant colonels, to train their Physical Arts more diligently and also to learn about biology.
Finally, Zephyr directly ordered the Military Affairs Department to print a set of three textbooks covering advanced, intermediate, and basic knowledge points, and then distribute them to the Three Armies and the CIPHER POL.
As a result, even the lowest-ranking soldiers in the Army Headquarters, Marine Headquarters, and Air Force Headquarters began to spend two hours each day studying in classrooms.
"Not bad, not bad"
Upon learning of these changes within the military, Imu, still in the Giant World, immediately revealed a very satisfied and pleased smile.
In his view, biology must be the most important subject for the naturally strong Sea Star Person.
Only by gaining a deeper understanding of one's own body and comprehending the essence of vitality can one unleash greater power.
Muzan Kibutsuji is a perfect teacher in this regard, capable of providing a personal demonstration during the teaching process.
And this is just the beginning.
Further understanding of Divine Power, and even the power of the soul, is needed. Unfortunately, the World Government currently lacks professional instructors in these two areas.
"Speaking of which, the Myriad Worlds Top 100 Combat Power Tournament is about to begin."
Imu, sitting on the Empty Throne, suddenly remembered this matter. He recalled that the official announcement stated that the preliminary selection would begin on June 1st, but it was already mid-April.
"By the way, let's ban military personnel from participating. The purpose of this competition is to attract skilled civilians. What's the point if more than half of the top 100 are officers and soldiers from the Three Armies?"
Moreover, he felt that the Star Gate Pass was not very useful for military Vice Admiral and soldiers, as they could not travel to Otherworld on their own.
Immediately.
Imu gave the order to the Five Elders, Five Elders naturally dared not have any objections. However, just as he ended the call, a new idea came to mind.
"Shouldn't we hold a competition within the military?"
As soon as the idea came to mind, inspiration flowed into his brain like a fountain, Imu began to ponder.
If this competition is to be held, what is its purpose?
He thought about this problem for a long time.
"Assessment!"
Imu's eyes lit up, and he immediately became interested.
"The combat capabilities of Vice Admiral and Rear Admiral in the military vary greatly. Some Rear Admiral may not even be able to defeat a colonel, while some lieutenant Vice Admiral in a real fight."
"Could we use fixed, large-scale assessments to guarantee the combat effectiveness of Vice Admiral, Rear Admiral, and Commodore generals?"
The current military promotion system relies primarily on military merit, with little to no assessment or evaluation of actual ability.
According to traditional thinking, someone who is capable of earning military merit must have a certain level of strength.
In the original story, it was only because of the Paramount War and Aokiji's departure that the World Government made an exception and conducted a "World Military Draft" based entirely on strength.
Imu's current thinking is that in the future, military merit can only lead to Commodore at most. Further promotion should be based on actual combat effectiveness, and generals should become truly reliable pillars on the battlefield.
"In the future, perhaps Commodore who are about to be promoted to Rear Admiral, in addition to undergoing basic physical fitness tests, also have to engage in a one-on-one combat with an incumbent Rear Admiral. Only those who win can be promoted to Rear Admiral, and the same applies to Vice Admiral."
