Chapter 65

Garp’s hands clasped in front of his chest as he said, “I’m not afraid; why should we avoid suspicion? How about the fact that he defeated Drake? Lieutenant Commander is indeed too high. How about giving him a Lieutenant position?”
Sengoku thought for a moment and said, “How about this, you and I each step back. What do you think, Lieutenant Junior Grade? This is already the treatment of seven consecutive promotions (Seaman First Class, Petty Officer, Chief Petty Officer, Master Petty Officer, Warrant Officer, Ensign, Lieutenant Junior Grade). Not to mention in the Marine Academy, even in the entire Marine Headquarters, it’s rare.”
Garp smiled brightly at the words: “Well, as expected of Fleet Admiral.”
After saying that, both of them laughed.
………
In the evening, Leiyin opened his personal information of Naruto System at home.

Chakra Amount: 61000/61000]
Leiyin noticed that after defeating Smoker and Drake, his chakra amount rose by a full 9,000 points. This indicated that these two fights, especially the one with Drake, were a big boost.
This also showed that the stronger the opponent he defeated, the faster his rank would improve.
After the ranking examination, many trainees were given new ranks.
Leiyin was promoted to Lieutenant Junior Grade and became the strongest trainee in the Marine Academy. No one said he was “that Chief Petty Officer” anymore.
Two months later, there would be a battle examination. By then, the Marine Academy trainees would have graduated from here and become a full-fledged marine officer.
Like Leiyin, Drake and Smoker were naturally became the focus of attention among the high-ranking marine officers.
………..
One day after the final.
Real Admiral Gion was instructing the trainees to practice their daily swordsmanship.
“After all, this is the main point of the swordsmanship. Does everyone remember?”
“Yes, we remember.”
Gion’s beautiful eyes swept around the trainees, and then said, “Hina and Verdan, you two come out to spar to the point that you are ready.”
The two girls who weren’t given credit came out and stood opposite each other with swords in their hands. They looked at each other as if a fire was coming out of their eyes.
“These two girls, why do they look a little off?”
As soon as the order for the match was given, their swords collided with each other, emitting the sound of gold and iron clanging.
They didn’t give way to each other, sending a stormy attack at each other.
Looking at the situation; the two didn’t seem like they were in a match. It was more like they were fighting for their lives.
When enemies met, they saw each other in a different light.
Earlier, Verdan heard that Garp was going to introduce Hina to Leiyin; and Hina also knew that Verdan and Leiyin had known each other for a long time and that their relationship was not quite normal.
The battle between women was terrifying.
Especially at this time, it was impossible to lose.
However, as an instructor, Gion saw that something was wrong and immediately criticized the two after stopping the match.
“What kind of grudge do you guys have? I just ask you guys to perform the sword technique, but you actually fought!”
“All of you go and run 20 laps for punishment!” Gion yelled at the two of them.
Hina and Verdan said “yes” at the same time. They then looked at each other and looked away at the same time. They gave a “humph” and went to carry out Gion’s order.
Gion’s gaze once again went to the team and locked on a person before she said, “Leiyin, come out.”
Leiyin, who had been named, walked out from the group.
“Based on Verdan’s and Hina’s performance, I think maybe everyone didn’t comprehend the section of sword technique just now. So, Leiyin and I will demonstrate it to you once more.”
Leiyin understood Gion’s meaning and immediately demonstrated the sword technique he had just learned without missing a single move.
“Worthy of being the strongest this year. Even after obtaining the first place, you are still so hardworking.”
Suddenly, an unknown trainee on the stage said, “Instructor Gion, why don’t you and Leiyin have a sparring session? We can learn from that.”
“Yes, we can learn faster in actual battle.”
“That’s right.”
On the ground, the voices of those who wanted to see Gion and Leiyin compete were higher than a wave.
Leiyin was now the strongest trainee in the Marine Academy, so Gion also wanted to see how strong he was. “Leiyin, are you willing to fulfill everyone’s request?”
Leysin nodded abruptly, indicating his consent.
……..
Gion and Leiyin stood opposite each other. Gion drew the [Konpira] at her waist, while Leiyin drew the Sword of Kusanagi behind him.
Leiyin already knew Gion’s sword skill level, so he naturally didn’t dare to be careless.
Leiyin was the first to attack, flying forward almost at his fastest speed. The Sword of Kusanagi slashed straight up. However, in response to Leiyin’s strike of steel, Gion replied with the same force.
CLANG!
A crisp sound of the metal collision, and the two swords even clashed sparks.
The force of the two was equal.
Gion waved her sword at Leiyin’s sword and swung it at the ground. Pink sword energy appeared on the ground like a swimming dragon whistling towards Leiyin.
Leiyin saw this and was forced back a few dozen steps by the sword energy. However, he also waved his sword, and blue sword energy appeared on the ground.
The blue sword energy and pink sword energy collided together, causing a violent roar in the field, astonishing the trainees below.
The attacks canceled each other out in both directions, and both of them were shaken back a few steps.
The scene was similar to yesterday’s duel with Drake. The difference was that this sword energy of the two was evenly split.
Drake was convinced at this point that Leiyin could fight his instructor to a draw.
Not only Drake, but even Gion’s heart also couldn’t believe it. She then said, “Leiyin, you are indeed a little stronger than I thought, but next, I will not show mercy.”
Gion took the [Konpira] back into its scabbard before the words left her mouth and then pulled the sword out horizontally again. A pink arc of sword energy spread out towards the whole field.
“HALF MOON – SWORD SLASH!”
