Ryuya looked at Kizaru.
A smile played on his lips.
Time seemed to stand still at this moment.
It was unknown how long it had been before Ryuya finally smiled at Kizaru, "Okay, as you wish."
"Ryuya, you need to think this through. This is a competition between subordinates!"
Sengoku wanted to remind Ryuya.
To this, Ryuya simply said, "I never do anything without preparation!"
Kizaru's heart sank even further when he heard Ryuya's words.
Just as he was about to start the competition immediately, Ryuya looked at Kizaru and said, "Admiral Kizaru, if that's the case, we'll compete in a month. Should be fine, right?"
The last sentence was directed at Sengoku.
Sengoku nodded, "A month's time, no problem."
Kizaru opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but seeing Ryuya's gaze, he said, "Oh la la~ Since Admiral White Dove has spoken, then see you in a month!"
With that, Kizaru's figure instantly disappeared from Sengoku's office.
Sengoku looked at Ryuya, "Are you sure?"
"Just consider it training for them!"
"But, you can only use Ain, right? At most, you can add Kalifa. No, Kalifa is currently training on a secret island, she can't leave. You only have one person you can use right now!"
Sengoku said to Ryuya with concern.
"Don't worry, Fleet Admiral Sengoku. I never do anything without preparation."
After saying this, Ryuya also left Sengoku's office.
Seeing Ryuya's confident expression, Sengoku didn't know what to say.
If he were to say, in terms of strength, Sengoku felt that Kizaru might not be Ryuya's match.
But if it was a battle between subordinates, Sengoku didn't know what Ryuya was trying to do!
"He's really hard to understand!"
Sengoku patted his head and stopped thinking about it. Instead, he focused on handling other documents.
As for Ryuya and Kizaru, let them figure it out themselves!
This news spread quickly.
Soon, the entire Marineford knew that Ryuya and Kizaru were going to have a competition!
Ryuya returned to his room.
As soon as he entered the room, Ryuya saw Ain and Stella.
"Ain, are you finished with your training today?"
"Yes, Ryuya-sama. I heard..."
"I was just about to tell you about this."
Ryuya sat down on the chair and said to the two girls, "You two should have heard about my competition with Kizaru."
Ain nodded vigorously and saluted Ryuya, "Ryuya-sama, we will definitely give it our all!"
"I know. After all, you two are my confidants!"
Ryuya continued, "So, I was thinking, should I put some pressure on you two, make you grow up sooner?"
This time, Ryuya was truly thinking of the two of them.
After all, their training had been a little too relaxed lately.
Plus, Stella had just eaten her Devil Fruit, which was a good time for her to advance.
So, Ryuya planned to put them through some serious training!
"But, Ryuya-sama, I heard this isn't a three-on-three match? We only have two people here, including Stella. What about the third person?"
Just as Ain finished speaking, there was a knock on the door.
Ryuya snapped his fingers.
An illusion appeared out of thin air in front of the door.
After opening the door, it disappeared.
The door slowly opened, and a woman with long, light pink hair walked in.
"Ryuya-sama, can Hina be the third person?"
Tashigi walked in from outside and came to Ryuya.
She had never changed her mind.
As soon as she heard about this, she immediately made a decision.
With her current abilities, coming to Ryuya, who was missing a third person, she would definitely be chosen!
Thinking of this, Hina felt incredibly confident.
Ain and Stella also looked at Hina, who was standing in front of Ryuya, their hearts filled with unknown thoughts.
Hearing Hina's words, Ryuya stood up from his chair.
"Hina, I know your intentions, but I already have a third person in mind."
Hina's cheeks flushed when she heard Ryuya's words, "That, Ryuya-sama, just, just pretend I wasn't here."
Saying this, Hina ran outside.
She was so embarrassed.
She had basically recommended herself, and then been rejected?
"Wait a moment, Hina. We're about to eat. Why don't you stay for dinner?"
Since she had come to recommend herself,
Ryuya should at least treat her to a meal.
After thinking about it for a moment, Hina agreed.
After all, this was a good opportunity for Hina to get closer to Ryuya.
At the dinner table, Hina asked Ryuya, "Ryuya-sama, can you tell me who you're planning to invite?"
"A woman who's very skilled in swordsmanship."
Saying this, Ryuya took a bite of sashimi.
It had to be said that the pirate world was full of fish.
After hearing Ryuya's words, the three women fell into deep thought.
But after searching their memories, they couldn't think of anyone in the Navy who was particularly good at swordsmanship.
Time quickly passed to the afternoon.
Most of the Navy were on break.
Ryuya went to another residential area of the Navy.
This was the residence of the Vice Admirals.
In terms of conditions, it was pretty good.
Ryuya came to the door and gently knocked.
The door slowly opened.
A woman with the aura of a mature woman appeared in Ryuya's sight.
"Admiral White Dove, you're a rare visitor."
"Actually, I wanted to come visit you a long time ago, but I've been so busy lately, I haven't had the time. Please don't mind."
"Is it because of that competition that you, Admiral White Dove, came to visit me personally?"
"Then I'm sorry, Admiral White Dove." Gion looked at White Dove in front of her and continued, "I won't participate in any invitations. Please turn back."
Gion said to Ryuya without hesitation.
However, at this moment, a smile appeared on Ryuya's lips.
The smile was very gentle, as if Ryuya was completely at ease with everything in front of him.
"Gion, Vice Admiral candidate, are you really not going to accept my invitation?"
Ryuya emphasized the words "Vice Admiral candidate." Thɪs chapter is updated by Novᴇ(l)Fɪre .ɴᴇt
