T Bone sniffed and asked, "Is this really the right thing to do to help you?"
Leiyin nodded affirmatively.
T Bone said, "All right. I'll do my best, I promise."
...….
After a series of ups and downs during the journey, the ship finally arrived at its final destination, the Marine Headquarters in Marineford.
As soon as Leiyin arrived at the port, he felt a great sense of grandeur and magnificence.
He saw a huge fortress (the original one destroyed by the Battle of Marineford many years later). On the wall were two big words, "MARINE", written by the Fleet Admiral of the Marine, Sengoku the Buddha.
Marineford was an island with a huge military fortress and a large town where marine' families lived.
There were also numerous heavy artillery pieces and many naval vessels on the island.
Above the fort, there were offices and meeting rooms for the Fleet Admiral, Admiral, and Vice Admiral. Besides, there were trees, plants, flowers, and lawn space.
Around the fortress were the four massive towering posts with four flags of seagulls, the marine symbol.
After finally setting foot on the Marineford, T Bone went directly to Vice-Admiral Garp with Leiyin.
When he found Garp, Garp was wearing a dog mask, with tea and snacks on the side.
He was sunbathing in the courtyard where he lived, looking very relaxed. T Bone gave a respectful marine salute, "Lieutenant T Bone and Petty Officer Leiyin are here to report to the Vice-Admiral!"
Garp took off his dog head mask and looked at them with a smile, "Oh, you guys finally came."
Leiyin looked at them blankly and said, "What's the hurry? I don't see anything serious at all..."
T Bone hit Leiyin with his hand, "Hey, this is Vice Admiral Garp, so be polite....."
"It doesn't matter," Garp interrupted before T Bone could finish his sentence, "That's just the way this kid is. I'm used to it when we met at the Shells Town."
Garp was really an easy-going guy.
Later on, T Bone told Garp the truth about Leiyin having captured Diamante alive.
Garp got up from his chair in a flash, "Now, where is Diamante?"
T Bone said, "He is handcuffed with a Seastone Cuffs and still in jail on the ship, awaiting your disposal. Leiyin wants me to take the credit for this. However, I don't think it's quite right, so I've come to consult you...."
"Just do it!" Unexpectedly, Garp immediately agreed, "Say that you're the one who captured Diamante alive."
Hearing that from Garp, T Bone didn't push the matter any further. T Bone then said, "So, what should we do with him now?"
"You go down first and give him to the Fleet Admiral directly."
"As ordered!" T Bone gave a salute and went straight down.
After T Bone left, Garp came and patted Leiyin's shoulder, "I didn't expect that the two of us would get along. I also didn't realize that you, kid, is a low-key person, hahaha."
Leiyin spread out his hands, "Well, I just want to practice quietly for a while. I don't want to be bothered by too many external factors."
Garp said, "Yeah, the matter of arresting someone from the Donquixote Pirates, who is also a top officer, will definitely cause a small shock in the world. If people knew it was a 16-year-old Petty Officer's work, it would definitely get the world's attention. By then, you may not have a peaceful life."
"By the way, where do you plan to place me? Do you want me to go into battle with ordinary soldiers? Or do you want just to make me an officer to command the unit?" Leiyin asked.
Garp laughed, "Neither."
Hmm?
"With your current age and the strength you possess, the formal marine isn't suitable for you yet. As you've said, you still need to practice a bit more, so I've been thinking about it. I should place you in the [Marine Academy]."
"Marine Academy?!"
Garp smiled evilly, "Yeah, when you get there; you have to work hard. If you behave well, I'll introduce you to Hina, the flower in the Marine Academy, to be your girlfriend, how about that?"
Huh?
Leiyin was full of frustration, "Old man, I know that you are a Vice Admiral in the marine, but can't you be a little serious at your age?"
"Hahaha...."
However, speaking of this Hina, she seemed to be very familiar. Leiyin secretly thought.
Right, come to think of it. This person was a superhuman with Ori Ori no Mi Devil Fruit ability, known as [Black Cage] Hina. Many years later, she would become a Captain in the Marine Headquarters.
Later, she would get promoted as a Rear Admiral in the Marine Headquarters. She was a true beauty. Unexpectedly, Hina was now also in the Marine Academy.
Suddenly, Leiyin thought of something else, and he asked Garp, "Old man, am I still in the Marine Academy as a Petty Officer then?"
Garp held up a finger, "You're too strong to be in the cradle of future naval officers at such a low rank."
"Really?" Leiyin asked.
"Well, I'm going to promote your rank."
"What?" Leiyin looked at Garp with an expectant look.
Garp solemnly said, "I'm going to officially announce that Petty Officer Leiyin will join the Marine Academy as a Chief Petty Officer."
Leiyin was depressed, "Huh? How can I still be Chief Petty Officer after all this time? Are you kidding me, old man?"
"I'm not joking. The marine order is like a mountain, and you're going to report to the Marine Academy immediately tomorrow without fail."
"Okay...okay..." Leiyin was dumbfounded.
As expected from Garp, he was still the same old comical man full of childishness.
Actually, Leiyin didn't mind about the marine rank. Even if he were to name himself an Admiral now, what would be the use?
If he didn't have the strength, even if he became a Fleet Admiral directly, he would still be controlled by others, and it would be useless.
Before Leiyin asked Garp, Leiyin had a bad premonition that Garp, that old man, was indeed very fond of fooling around and giving him a low rank.
In fact, Garp did this with good intentions. He understood that Leiyin was so powerful that he had already surpassed a Captain or even a Commodore's strength. So he did it, firstly, to keep Leiyin away from the limelight.
He wanted Leiyin to keep a low profile and quietly enhance his strength. When he suddenly broke out someday, he would be on the top of the marine. Secondly, he didn't want him to get too carried away.
Leiyin was only 16 years old. After all, he was young and energetic. It wasn't always a good idea not to experience any storms.
If he were to give a Captain or even a Commodore, he could easily become a Vice Admiral or even an Admiral in the future.
Regardless of Garp's usual carelessness, he was actually a genius. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been a Vice Admiral for so many years.
"By the way, kid, all the trainees in the Marine Academy have their dormitories. Yours is only a kilometer or so away from my residence. It was the one I specifically left for you, so you'll be living there from now on."
Perhaps in Garp's heart, he already considered Leiyin as his grandson.

Garp always wanted his two grandsons, Ace and Luffy, to become marine. However, one of them has already gone to sea to become a pirate.
The other one was always saying, "I am the man who is going to be the Pirates King," so he couldn't do anything about it.
If Garp remembered correctly, Leiyin was even older than Ace. Leiyin's strength itself was unlimited, and seeing him now stepping down to become a marine, Garp's heart couldn't help but feel a bit relieved.
"This kid is not only strong but also very courageous, very much to my liking. He will definitely be a strong marine warrior in the future." Looking at Leiyin's back, Garp secretly thought to himself.
In the days to come, Leiyin called Garp "old man," while Garp called Leiyin "kid." Maybe in Leiyin's heart, he also had already treated Garp as his grandfather.
.....
When he arrived at his dorm, Leiyin found that Garp had put his heart into it. His dorm wasn't huge, about 80 to 90 square meters, but it had a large courtyard with all sorts of equipment for exercise and general training items.
Garp also meant for Leiyin to devote himself to training and become a marine pillar in the future.
Leiyin could take his place, become an Admiral, or even the Fleet Admiral of the marine.
Leiyin wasn't one to make a show of himself. So, as soon as he arrived at his residence, he immediately started itching to see the large courtyard for his training.
He had been thinking about developing S-rank ninjutsu, so he gathered [Rasengan] in his hand and injected attribute chakra into it.
"Hey, you know what? I heard that there was a gorgeous girl at the Marine Academy yesterday."
As soon as Leiyin's attention was focused, he was distracted by the sound from outside. It turned out to be a couple of marine soldiers who happened to be passing by the entrance to Leiyin's yard while they were talking.
"Yeah, yeah, I heard that too. I heard that she failed to learn the [Kami-e] of the [Rokushiki] and has yet to join the Marine Academy. The headquarters even sent a Captain to instruct her personally."
"A pretty girl? Isn't it supposed to be Hina?"
"I've seen it. She's prettier than Hina."
"No, you are talking nonsense. Didn't we see it together yesterday? She's pretty, but still not as pretty as Hina."
"You're the one who talked nonsense. She's prettier than Hina."
"Actually, I think that Hina from the Marine Academy is the prettiest."
"Haha, many of our brothers in the squadron also have crushes on her."
"Hey, I really envy those male trainees who attend the Marine Academy. There are so many beautiful young girls around, unlike us who have to stand guard every day and charge into battle."
"Hey, it's infuriating when people are compared to each other."
Although the soldiers were complaining, they still walked away, humming a tune.
Marineford was a place where the marine lived. It was as big as a country. There were quite a few marines stationed there; almost all of the world's elite marine were here.
Often, one could meet a group of marines as soon as they left home. Not only that, but many of the marine's families settled here.
The conversations Leiyin just overheard were coming from a small group of the marines.
Indeed, as they said, the Marine Academy was an academy for the future marine officers.
The life there wasn't comparable to the life of a soldier who had to endure seniority and battle.
If one joined the Marine Academy, not only did they have a bright future, but they also enjoyed their youth there.
As he thought about it, the [Rasengan] in Leiyin's hand actually faded away.
.....
The next day, as soon as the sky turned white, Leiyin reported to the Marine Academy.
The Marine Academy was an academy that trained marine officers. Leiyin was expecting it to be big, but he found that it was a little bigger than he thought when he went there.
Leiyin didn't expect that he would meet with some ridicule as soon as he went there.
What happened?
It was his clothes that betrayed him.
It turned out that the marine wore different uniforms for different ranks.
Seaman First Class and below wear the basic marine uniform and hat.
After being promoted to Petty Officer (Petty Officer Third Class), which meant reaching the rank of Non-Commissioned Marine Officers such as [Master Chief Petty Officer (Petty Officer First Class), Warrant Officer], one could choose to dress in various ways, even in civilian clothes.
However, it was still forbidden to wear clothes that weren't suitable for the marine's image.
Ensign and above were allowed to wear a coat with "Justice" written on the back and standard clothing.
More senior officers and admirals were allowed to wear the "Justice" coat with their civilian clothes.
Leiyin was ridiculed because he was still wearing the lowest rank uniform, the marine's most basic uniform, and hat.
Leiyin came late to report on his first day, and the trainees were already lined up when he arrived.
"Chief Petty Officer Leiyin, three minutes late, thirty laps after morning exercise as a penalty!" The instructor said.
Hearing the words "Chief", some of the trainees covered their mouths as if they heard a joke and tried not to laugh. There was one who laughed so hard that everyone could hear him.
"Very Good! Was that funny? Like him, you're going to run thirty laps after morning exercise!" The instructor reprimanded loudly.
Upon hearing this, Very Good's original smile immediately pulled down. Everyone immediately stopped laughing at the words.
Was it that funny?
It turned out that the trainees in the Marine Academy were either competent or had mastered the Rokushiki. The others were children of a high-ranking marine officer.
The lowest rank among the trainees was the rank of Seaman. Just like that, they were described as strange by some of the more mischievous and bullying trainees.
If Seaman was the odd one, then Chief Petty Officer Leiyin was the strangest among the strangest.
A few of the Seamans trainees in the group was secretly delighted to see Leiyin.
He's here, so we're not at the bottom.
Leiyin didn't care about the ridicule of the crowd, but what he did care about was the instructor who had just lectured him.
The instructor was somewhat mature and sexy. She was wearing a marine "Justice" coat and short pants, revealing two fair and hot thighs. She had a sword called [Konpira] at her waist.
She was known as the "Momousagi." A few years later, she became a Vice Admiral in the marine. She was pursued 100 times by a man who was also a Vice Admiral, but she rejected him.
Later, she became a candidate for an Admiral.
Even Leiyin couldn't help but look at her twice.
This is…
