Chapter 7: Chapter 7
Luffy blinked hard. He was sure that it was not his eyes that flashed. There was really an electric current flashing through his palm.
He soon realized that it was the Rumble-Rumble Fruit he had just eaten yesterday.
It was the first time he had superpowers in his two lives. He had not yet adapted to it and almost forgot about his ability.
He stood up again and got into position. While exercising hard, Luffy thought about the reason for his recovery.
In fact, when he saw the electric arc, he guessed it.
The reason why he recovered so quickly was probably because the electric therapy of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit worked.
If he remembered correctly, electric therapy did stimulate tissue regeneration and relieve pain.
It also has the effects of accelerating blood circulation and reducing fatigue.
But this thing is not effective by just shocking himself twice.
He didn't understand the principle of electric therapy at all, and he didn't control the electric current to stimulate himself just now. It seemed that his electric therapy was passive ability. He didn't need to control it himself, and it could also help him.
And he didn't feel any side effects of electric therapy on himself.
In other words, this ability is a completely a blessing.
Perhaps relying on this, he can also have the recovery and endurance comparable to that of Zoan-type devil fruit users.
Luffy, who had figured it all out, was immediately full of energy.
The 14- and 15-year-old boys around him couldn't hold on and fell down, but he became more and more energetic.
After a while, there was a loud roar, and Luffy successfully completed the 200 push-ups assigned by the instructor.
"Beep——!"
A whistle sounded, and Prue suppressed his shock, looked at his watch and said loudly:
"Time is up, all the recruits who have completed the task, gather here.
The rest of you continue training, and you can eat when you finish.
If you haven't finished before 8:20, then you don't have to eat."
It is now 7:50, which means they have 30 minutes to complete the task.
This is a nightmare for some recruits who have neither completed the running laps nor the push-ups.
Originally, Luffy joined in midway, and was struggling with whether he should practice more or leave.
Suddenly, he heard Prue's loud voice and was instantly startled.
"Little devil, come here!"
"Yes, instructor!"
Luffy he ran over quickly. Just as he was about to salute, he was interrupted by Prue's wave of his hand.
"Kid, since you are new here, I will exempt you from running the remaining laps.
Now follow your instructor to get your training uniform. Change your clothes and then come back for dinner."
"Yes, instructor!"
As the order was issued, McGinn stepped forward and waved to Luffy, and began to lead the way.
Luffy immediately trotted to catch up, and the two quickly entered the logistics department and disappeared from everyone's sight.
Looking back, Prue looked at the recruits lying on the ground, howling like wolves and ghosts, and was immediately furious. He cursed with hatred:
"A bunch of rubbish, not even as good as a 5-year-old child.
I feel ashamed!"
Leaving this sentence, Prue turned around and left.
At the spot, whether it was the new recruits who had completed the training or not, they all looked at each other in bewilderment.
'What did the instructor say? That kid is only 5 years old?!
Whose kid can do 200 push-ups at the age of 5!
Even if you find a kid from the giant tribe, it is impossible to be so outrageous! '
After a while of complaining in their hearts, the recruits followed their instructors to the cafeteria. Even though the instructors were watching them along the way, they couldn't suppress their enthusiasm for discussion.
Obviously, Luffy's performance just now made them all remember the youngest child in the recruit camp.
Maybe in the future, there will be a great marine from their class.....
After following Instructor McGinn all the way to the logistics department, Luffy unexpectedly saw an acquaintance here.
It was the man who had helped him register and join the new recruits camp earlier.
The officer, who came to the logistics department to get a cup of tea, never expected to see this little kid again in such a short time. he don't know if it was because the shadow left by Garp was too deep, he subconsciously stood up and shouted:
"Master Luffy."
Luffy:.....
His shout attracted the attention of more than a dozen staff members in the logistics department.
They all looked around and cast a scrutinizing gaze at Luffy.
'Damn, what are you yelling about in front of so many people?
Luffy suppressed his embarrassment, stood at attention and saluted properly, reminding:
"Sir, I am the new recruit Luffy, please take care of me."
Although the recruiter Fili is a civilian, his rank is also a lieutenant in the marine.
After Luffy's reminder, he reacted instantly and realized that he had done something stupid again.
'Damn, he make another mistake! '
Cursing himself, Fili nodded to Luffy reluctantly, and then hid aside.
Seeing that the farce was over, McGinn coughed lightly, took Luffy to a female logistics soldier, pointed at Luffy and said:
"Take him to be measure and get three sets of training uniforms.
Also, toothbrushes, towels and other daily necessities, please help deliver them to dormitory 1067 later."
The female soldier who was called looked at Luffy curiously, nodded and took him away.
As soon as they left, the logistics department became lively.
More than a dozen people gathered around Fili, and surrounded Fili who had just picked up the teacup and wanted to run away.
"Fili, do you know that kid? Whose family is he from? Is he joining the marine at such a young age?"
"Ah, that, I don't know anything."
"Come on, don't be stingy. You've already exposed his identity as a young master. It doesn't matter if you tell us whose young master he is."
"I, I really don't know, so I'll leave first."
Fili couldn't stand the questioning of so many people, and wanted to escape with a random excuse.
But how could everyone do as he wished? One of the female soldiers grabbed his arm, stared at him fiercely and threatened:
"Tell me now, or you won't be able to get out of here!"
"Yes, hurry up and tell us, or you won't be able to get a needle from us in the future."
'I, who did I offend? Why am I so unlucky today?'
Fili's eyes were filled with tears, and he really wanted to cry.
Finally, under the coercion of everyone, he still couldn't resist, and he covered his mouth and whispered:
"Okay, it is Vice Admiral Garp. He is the grandson of Vice Admiral Garp."
"WHATTT——!"
