In the end, everyone sat down and finished the meal.

Just as the beauty said,

Admiral Akainu couldn't tell the difference between black bread and white toast.

I watched him finish the omelet in two or three bites, and I could tell that he wasn't frowning because the cake wasn't fluffy enough, but because he didn't like sweets, even if it was his birthday cake.

Admiral Sengoku and Green Pheasant ate the cake that was cut for them as usual, and then praised the beauty's stew.

It's obvious that Navy men don't have much interest in sweets, and they prefer meat — — meat dishes are also the fastest to be consumed on the table.

Vice-admiral Tsuru patted my head after eating the cake,

And smiled warmly.

"It's your first time making a cake, and it's already great.

It's delicious.

Thank you.

Leah. "

Vice-admiral Tsuru, you're such a good person!

I was moved to tears.

The only problem left was … …

I looked at Yellow Ape anxiously.

I don't know why, but I've always had a deep-rooted impression of Yellow Ape — — this person must be very picky and troublesome.

Although I don't know why,

I've had this feeling since the first time he stood on the cannon!

This guy, usually,

Definitely,

Especially likes to find trouble when there's nothing to do!

Seeing Yellow Ape cut a small piece of cake and put it in his mouth, I felt my stomach lift.

"Hmm?

Yay ~ Strange, very strange — — "

I knew it!

I knew you were going to cause trouble!

Yellow Ape's voice was full of twists and turns, and his face had an evil smile. Just as I was about to lose my breath from fear,

Vice-admiral Tsuru suddenly poured a cup of tea for him.

I don't know if it's just my imagination, but I feel like Vice-admiral Tsuru's hands … … are faintly emitting a light similar to when an ability is activated???

"Have some tea, Borsalino." Vice-admiral Tsuru smiled warmly.

"… Oh."

Yellow Ape's tone instantly returned to normal.

He was so normal that I felt that he was a little lonely.

He took the tea and took a sip.

With a smile that was no longer as annoying as before, he opened his mouth to speak to the beauty.

"How strange.

Why isn't there raspberry jam on such a nice cake? "

The beautiful woman and I both heaved a sigh of relief and looked at Vice-admiral Tsuru with gratitude.

Lady Crane smiled peacefully and took a sip from her teacup.

Thanks to Ms. Crane, the dinner ended in a much more peaceful way than I had expected.

Although Akainu had an unhappy face from the beginning to the end, everyone else could be said to be having a good time …

[Favorability of Sakaski: 60. Reward: Four-star heroic spirit Rider, Sakata Kinshi x 1]

'Alright, Akainu, you're also very happy … I won't wait!!!'

… Gold Hour?!

Hello?!

Akainu, your favorability reward is Gold Hour?!!! '

I looked at Admiral Akainu with a fervent gaze.

Gold Hour, that's Gold Hour!

Rider's strongest single-target Relic!

Extremely high critical damage!

It comes with NP recharge!

In short, it's super, super, super useful!

Alright!

In order to get Gold Hour, I'll definitely work hard!

Isn't it just Akainu's favorability? I'll do it!!!

The AI jumped behind me and patted my shoulder with its tail, "Good luck."

… Could you please not say the words' good luck 'in the same way as' have a safe journey '?

Oh, by the way, it was Akainu who washed the dishes that night.

"I feel that his birthday was actually quite miserable." Looking at the figure in the kitchen, I whispered to the AI, "Is it just my imagination?"

"From a certain point of view, it was quite miserable." The AI tilted its head, "So, do you want to bravely accept the task of washing the dishes?

Who knows, you might be able to get another wave of favorability. "

I quickly opened "New World's Rare Plants", picked up a pen from under the coffee table and began to pretend that I was desperately studying.

"No, definitely not.

Washing dishes is super annoying. I've washed enough when I was still in the original world.

I can get more favorability later, but I definitely don't want to wash the dishes. I want to study.

Studying makes me happy. "

The AI looked at me speechlessly for a while, then pointed at the page with its soft claws.

"You put the book upside down."

"… You talk too much!"

… … …

Time flies like an arrow, and time flies.

Just like that, I maintained a training volume that would make any freshman in military training pale and faint, and a learning volume that would make any senior in high school wish they were dead, and spent two years.

If this world had the Internet and forums, I would definitely use bloody words to write, "What's the deal with Mary Sue becoming Sparta's hellish military training?", "818's group of inhumane demon generals?", "Do the bastards in the Navy use their muscles to come up with training plans? Why is there no protection law for minors in this world?!", and so on.

If I had to find a reason for this period of time, a value, a meaning.

Then, I think, it must not be the moving youth, the friendship of men, or the soaring hot-bloodedness.

It was Akainu's favorability that finally reached 80.

[Sakaski's favorability is 70. Reward: Four-star Hero Spirit Rider · Sakata Kinshi x2, Golden Bear Seal Lighter x1]

[Sakaski's favorability is 80. Reward: Four-star Hero Spirit Rider · Sakata Kinshi x2, Golden Bear Seal Lighter x3]

… It wasn't easy, but I saw the hope of victory!

In short, when Zepfa finally said "Very good, you can enter the next stage of training", I didn't think, didn't hesitate, went home and packed my luggage. I told the beauty that "Akainu will come later to check the results of my training, and I suspect that he will use his Devil Fruit ability this time. In order not to be beaten to death, I ran away first", accepted the Den Den Mushi and Wallet provided by the beauty, promised to contact her at any time, and said "If you don't have money, just say so" … Once again, I changed into Quiet Hassan's card and slipped on Kapp's ship.

The AI looked at me coldly: "Why don't you just grit your teeth and continue to work hard to raise Akainu's favorability to the max?

Didn't you say that you 'saw the hope of victory'? "

I looked at it calmly: "Yes, I saw the hope of victory, and the shining star of death next to it."

Don't fucking think about me!

I eavesdropped on Akainu's phone call last night!

He asked Zepfa if I can use Armament Haki now, and if I can, he will be serious tomorrow!

If I don't run now, when will I run?

Otherwise, am I waiting to catch Acheron's head with my bare hands?!

This damn AI not only couldn't understand my distress, but it also faintly sang a song:

"Lift up your skull ~ Let me see your …"

"Shut up!"

"Okay."

The AI dodged my flying kick and jumped on the high cabinet to watch me remove the card, "Is it okay if you remove Quiet Hassan's aura now?"

"No problem."

I took a deep breath and began to try to relax the muscles that were tight because of meeting a stranger, "Because I am going to see Kapp."

"That's fast this time?"

"What else?"

I rolled my eyes at the AI that didn't need to eat anything, "Do you want me to continue to eat compressed rations?"

After eating fifty meals of compressed rations in a row, I would rather starve than eat this thing.

"Besides, we are so familiar with each other … It's just a ride, he won't drive me off."

Having said that, I suddenly looked at the AI vigilantly, "You didn't do anything this time, did you leave a message for Akainu for me?!"

If it happens again, I will really kill … Kill the AI!

"Do you think I'm that bad?" The AI's voice actually had a trace of grievance, "I didn't do anything this time."

I breathed a sigh of relief.

Okay, it seems that when I come back, I can still keep my life …

"But Gloria's mother is very angry.

She bought a chainsaw after you left, and it seems that she wants to have a thorough conversation with Admiral Akainu. "

"…"

I suddenly blacked out.

Okay, I probably won't be able to keep my life when I go back.

"Forget it, let me tell you a piece of good news."

The AI jumped down from a high place and landed lightly on my shoulder. Then, it turned from left to right, and its big furry tail swept across my face.

"I've also studied the corresponding rules. You can increase the favorability of others in Fengche Village. If you accumulate more than 100 favorability, together with Akainu's favorability, I can help you exchange for the function of materialization of ceremonial attire. However, you can only materialize three-star ceremonial attires."

I immediately became excited, "It's okay!

Three-star ones are already great! "

For example, the Dragon Vein, the Sea of Reeds, and the Inherent Barrier … Once released, it would be a different dimension!

Together with the ceremonial attire of the heroic spirit, it would be no different from summoning a heroic spirit … I feel like I will definitely win!

"You can only materialize ceremonial attires that have substance.

For example, Ling's pendant, Azoth's sword, Magic Ore, Mapo Tofu, and various black keys.

Without substance, they are purely conceptual and cannot be materialized. "The AI paused," This is the limit of the world's laws, and we can't break through it. "

… I'm so angry, I don't want to keep smiling anymore.

"You're such a useless system."

I was extremely angry and aggrieved. "Clearly, the card system written by the male author is so amazing. He can even summon Flying Shadow's Black Dragon Flame and Inoue Orihime's Twin Heavens Return to Shield. However, you only have this restriction …"

"I hope you understand one thing."

The AI didn't react angrily, and its tone was very calm.

At the end of the day, it was just an artificial intelligence system without any human emotions.

"I'm an AI used to observe civilizations. According to the rules of interstellar law, I only have the right to observe and cannot interfere with material reality.

The only help I can provide you is logistics and calculation. You will have to do the specific actions yourself. "

The AI looked at me with a pair of inanimate red eyes. Without all of its human-like reactions, the AI didn't look much different from a QB.

"The future of mankind can only be saved by mankind themselves, right?"

I was silent for a long time, but I still couldn't hold back my retort.

"How can you say 'I'm so useless' in such a righteous and righteous manner?"

"… In any case, work hard.

In the future, if you earn enough affection and friendship points, I can also help you materialize four-star and five-star ceremonial attires. "
