Chapter 84 Benefit Consultation Part 2
Momonga is becoming more and more indifferent towards life now.
Sengoku stood silently on one side, waiting for Zephyr’s emotions to stabilize, and he patted his shoulder, and then spoke to Rowen.
“Rowen, this time, you have brought back the Core of the Hell Island Crab. I will help you count it as Military Merit. But you have not been officially awarded any Military Rank and you cannot directly enjoy the rewards corresponding to that rank, so do you have any other requirements? As long as it is not something outrageous, I will help you accomplish it.”
This is the conclusion Sengoku and Momonga came to after careful discussion, after all, the matter of completely killing a big threat like the Hell Island Crab, the credit is way too big!
More than a decade ago, when the Hell Island Crab was destroying everything everywhere, the Gorōsei (Five Elder Stars) said that if anyone can solve this problem, they will let him become a High-Ranking Official with high pay and the rewards would be high too!
How big that order was?
As long as the Hell Island Crab is completely killed and the strength of its killer is decent then becoming the Fourth Admiral is also a certainty!
The Gorōsei (Five Elder Stars) was also in a hurry at that time.
And they had a reason for that hurry, the areas that the Hell Island Crab destroyed were all Allied Kingdom Members of the World Government!
At that time, the World Government took advantage of the chaos created by the Sea Pirates era and a total of more than 200 countries joined them to seek asylum.
After being messed up by the Hell Island Crab, there were only more than 170 Countries left, which directly created a vacuum zone of power.!
Later, the Marines relied on making huge sacrifices to suppress the Hell Island Crab in the sparsely populated Calm Belt, which temporarily ended the disaster.
Now Rowen had completely wiped out the Hell Island Crab while he was training on the Hell Island with other Recruits.
Even if he doesn’t yet deserve the rank of an Admiral, the position of being a Vice-Admiral isn’t out of the question. But doing that would do more harm than good to Rowen. He still lacks the foundation and he is also an easy target for others.
Smart people in One Piece World also know that they need to be discrete in their actions and they need to remain in shadows until they have enough power to protect themselves from everyone.
After all, among the new Pirates that appear every year, those who die the fastest are those who clamor the most.
So Sengoku simply used a promise to appease Rowen. He believed that Rowen would understand why he did it with his cunning level to speculate.
Sure enough, the expression on Rowen’s face became serious after turning around.
You can’t be directly rewarded if you don’t have a military rank, and that’s for the uninitiated to hear. But if Marine Fleet Admiral can’t allocate rewards based on someone’s merit then the world would have been overturned by the pirates by now.
So Rowen knew that Sengoku would not be so stupid to obliterate his credit, but had another purpose in it.
“Sure enough… I don’t have enough power or background.”
Rowen pondered, then looked at Zephyr, and mentally made a judgment.
“Then I can just say something freely?”
“Say it! But you know it in your own mind, don’t say it over ……”
It’s good to chat with smart people!
Sengoku finally feels a little better and he can now ignore being despised by Rowen just now. Although Rowen’s courage is a little bit stinky and he is quite capable of causing trouble with his temper, but where would Sengoku find such a Recruit like Rowen with his strength and brain?
But in the end, he still spoke one more sentence, that is that asking for too much would be impossible. Everyone is doing things under the rules, and breaking the rules is not good for anyone.
“Relax, my request is very simple.”
Rowen grinned, he didn’t care about the rank, only strength was the hard currency in this world. Sengoku offered compensation because he didn’t want to be too pushy and unable to improve his rank.
Instead, he offered compensation, which was just what Rowen wanted.
“Let’s talk about it first…”
Sengoku’s eyes flashed as he heard Rowen’s words and a bad feeling arse in his heart, he wanted to take back his words and he wanted to break his promise for a moment.
“In fact, my request is really simple… No matter what Zephyr Sensei teaches me in the future, Marine can’t intervene in that for any reason, such as not having enough Military Merits, not enough Military Merits, not enough Military Merits, or something.”
Important things need to be said three times!
Rowen finished his request in one breath and raised an eyebrow at Zephyr.
The latter was stunned for a second, then suddenly took a deep breath.
Zephyr thought that Rowen would ask to learn all the Marine Rokushiki, Haki, and so on. After all, in terms of Rumble-Rumble Fruit development, the Scientific Force Base is more useful to Rowen than Zephyr! But he didn’t expect to hear such a request.
As long as the Marines can’t interfere with Zephyr’s teaching for having insufficient Military Merit or something else, he would be able to teach Rowen those things at any given time.
It may look like Rowen is making a fortune, but Zephyr knew that once this request is permitted, the initiative would be in his hands!
Rowen was able to give up the explicit interest to make this choice, this is the kind of trust that he has never seen from his students!
For a while, Zephyr was close to crying again.
“Rowen!!”
“Sure enough, do you still want to grow stronger?”
Sengoku slightly frowned as he was also taken aback by Rowen’s request. However, this request did not exceed his expectations. Instead, it was still under the upper limit he had prepared.
Sengoku thought for a moment and nodded: “Well, I agree to this request!”
Then he looked at Rowen and said, “But even so, Rowen, it’s not good to be too ambitious. If you want to learn Marine Rokushiki and learn Haki at the same time then it will only distract you and it will do more harm than good, understand?”
In response, Rowen slightly smiled and said: “Understood!”
