Section 9: ZF's Shameless Demands

  As soon as Jinbao returned to the headquarters, he immediately received a disciplinary action of suspension from his original position.

  Arbitrarily mobilizing troops is a serious crime. Although he had previously led a mission to provide cover, and although Admiral Lei was actively moving, the navy was not his family business after all, and military discipline was paramount. Not dismissing General Jin on the spot was already considered good luck for him.

  He was then detained in a special solitary cell, enjoying 24-hour surveillance, waiting for the verdict of the military tribunal.

  As for whether he can take on a naval position, Shinbo isn't particularly concerned. In some ways, the life of a pirate is even more free and romantic than that of a naval officer. Moreover, all his treasures and Berries are stored in the Aladdin's lamp, guarded by the loyal lamp spirit. His only worry is that those 5 warships, which were modified at great cost, would be taken away by someone else, which would break his heart.

  The investigation took much longer than he had imagined, a full year and more.

  Although he was only gone for less than two months, the things he stirred up were quite numerous. First, he mysteriously solved the Rainbow Fog phenomenon and then excavated the tomb of the Thousand-Year Dragon. Therefore, a detailed investigation would require a lot of time, which is understandable.

  In this year, Shino also made great gains. Every day, Captain Rai would take out a segment of time to teach him the remaining 5 styles of the Navy's Six Styles.

  What's the format?

  One, Gun. A technique that boasts the power of a gunshot. Concentrating one's entire body strength into the index finger, a single strike is released with lightning speed and stone-hard fingers. The tip of the finger possesses bullet-like attacking power, capable of easily piercing through the human body.

  Two, Moon Step. The application technique of "cutting". Jumping and kicking in the air, changing the moving track before falling. With this aerial movement skill, you can launch an attack from the air without leaving a dead angle.

  Three, Rasetsu. Not kicking the enemy to inflict damage, but rolling up a "vacuum" attack! With sharp slashes, tear apart the opponent.

  Four, paper drawing. Unload the full-body strength and entrust oneself to the airflow changes generated by the opponent's movements. All attacks towards oneself can be dodged in a flash!

  Five, shave. Temporary interval, tread on the ground more than 10 times, using the explosive speed generated by the reaction force to move.

  Having grasped the essence of life return, Shina can freely control every part of her body, even moving her hair at will. (Although Fishman Shinra doesn't have hair.) And the Navy's 6th style is just a physical control technique, like a high school student relearning elementary school courses, although it feels unfamiliar, the core principles are clear, making it very easy to learn.

  However, even so, Jinbao's rapid progress also made General Leimen secretly astonished.

  This is again due to the metamorphic function of the mother nest fruit. Its mysterious connection network allows Xinbao to freely connect with any sub-body, sharing his own practice experience and insights. This means that when Xinbao learns the 6th style at a certain moment, other sub-bodies receive Xinbao's understanding of the 6th style of the Navy at the same time, involuntarily learning the 6th style based on Xinbao's understanding.

  Then, by feeding back their respective insights and understandings of the 6 forms to the Mother Form, they can achieve an understanding ability that is 10 times that of one person!

  The Mera Mera no Mi is absolutely a trump card for auxiliary training!

  The only regret is that the number of child bodies in the mother nest fruit has not been improved due to Shinpachi's mastery of the 6th style, and it remains embarrassingly at 12th place (with 11th place already full).

  Time flies, and a year's time has passed in such a fulfilling way.

  On this day, Shen Bao, who had been "under house arrest" for a long time, finally welcomed the result of a one-year investigation - the visit of General Shangguan.

  "Let's put it this way, your mistake this time is indeed extremely serious. It has even shocked the highest levels of the world government." The Warring States took a sip of tea, looked at Shen Bao with deep meaning, and continued to say, "We spent a year investigating, and it was very clear. Captain Shen Bao, you abused your power for personal gain, privately mobilizing troops... Hey, are you listening to me or not!"

  Upon seeing the General of the Warring States, his forehead bulging with rage, Shao Bao stretched his waist and waved his hand sleepily: "Don't be anxious, don't be anxious, General of the Warring States. At your age, you should control your temper a bit more, it's not good for your liver otherwise. Alright, just state the verdict directly, no need to beat around the bush."

  "Judgment has not been decided yet, the key now is to see your performance. The world government has always attached great importance to this disciplinary action and hopes to punish severely. However, our naval headquarters still maintains you, especially your uncle, who has fought for some time for you. In fact, although your mistake was extremely bad, it's not without a chance of redemption."

  "Compensation?" Jin Bao's eyebrow rose as he listened, and he had already vaguely guessed Warring States' intentions.

  As expected, the Warring States continued: "In fact, we can completely change the nature of this incident from private to public interest. Your biggest crime is using power for personal gain, but if this 'private' becomes 'public', then it's using power for public interest! Not only will you not be punished, but your military rank will also be promoted!"

  It has come to this point, and Shen Bao still doesn't understand the implicit meaning of the Warring States period - if you hand over most of the wealth you've obtained to the government, not only will you not be punished, but your position will also be promoted.

  At this moment, Shen Bao's face turned expressionless, but in his heart, he was secretly furious: "Good, good, good! So that's how it is! It seems my plan was flawed. Whether it's the Rainbow Mist's sunken ships or the Thousand Year Dragon's corpse and dragon eggs, there are many people involved. There's no wall that doesn't leak air, the World Government and the Marine Headquarters have teamed up, one playing the good cop and the other playing the bad cop, just wanting to get something for nothing from me!"

  But wanting to get treasures from me is not easy!!!

  Humming, daydreaming!
