"Ding~"

As they continued their discussion, a loud ringing sound suddenly echoed through the area, capturing everyone's attention.

The moment the sound was heard, all those preparing for training immediately stopped what they were doing and quickly moved to the central square to gather.

This time, however, the assembly took slightly longer than usual. Many of the personnel were not in the immediate vicinity, as they were undergoing specialized training in different locations.

By the time everyone had gathered, ten minutes had passed a delay that was understandable under the circumstances.

Despite this, the organization's efficiency was still commendable.

Anos observed the scene with a faint smile. The sight of tens of thousands of people in uniform, marching in perfect formation, was awe-inspiring from any angle.

At the forefront of the formation was a young man Anos recognized—Enel. He appeared slightly darker-skinned than before, but after over a month of rigorous training, his courage had noticeably increased.

His once-slender frame now displayed defined muscles, and his demeanour hinted at the confident and imposing figure he would become.

The most striking feature, however, was his large earlobes, which now extended almost to his shoulders, making him stand out even more among the recruits.

Most of the soldiers present were in their twenties, exuding energy and vitality.

Although their heights varied, the overall uniformity of the formation was impressive, presenting a refreshing and disciplined image.

"Report! First Brigade assembled! Expected count: 1,000. Actual count: 1,000!"

"Report! Second Brigade assembled! Expected count: 1,000. Actual count: 1,000!"

...

The entire force was divided into over 500 teams, grouped into 11 brigades of 1,000 soldiers each. This structure was designed to prepare them for coordinated group combat.

Each brigade had its own instructor, who also acted as its leader, capable of commanding independently if a higher-ranking officer was unavailable.

Fujitora stood silently, listening to the reports from each brigade. He couldn't help but admire Anos for implementing such precise military management.

The level of discipline here far surpassed that of the current Marine forces.

In this world, while the Marines under the World Government are prominent, the armies of various nations are often disorganized and lack discipline.

Compared to those forces, this unit was like an unstoppable army of 100,000.

"Your Majesty, all brigades have assembled. Please issue your orders," Daiki reported after ensuring all teams had finished their roll calls. He stepped forward, saluting Anos with precision and respect.

"General Fujitora, allow me to introduce you," Anos said with a smile. "Today, you'll be giving them a lesson, so I'll leave the stage to you."

"This is an honour, Your Majesty. I am ready," Fujitora replied humbly.

"Daiki, let's proceed," Anos said, his tone shifting to a more commanding demeanour.

With a calm yet firm expression, Anos led a group toward the front of the massive formation.

As they advanced, the soldiers remained silent, their disciplined posture reflecting their respect for their king.

Even though many were excited to see Anos in person, the training grounds remained eerily quiet, save for the occasional gust of wind.

Standing at the front of the formation, Anos scanned the rows of soldiers. Their unwavering gazes and steadfast stances conveyed their readiness and dedication.

Closing his eyes briefly, Anos took a deep breath before opening them. His sky-blue eyes radiated a commanding yet gentle presence, and his aura enveloped the entire venue.

Breaking the silence, he addressed the troops in a calm yet powerful voice:

"Apologies for interrupting your training, but today marks an important milestone. I've gathered you here to recognize your dedication and hard work. I see the progress each of you has made, and for that, I thank you."

"But today isn't just about acknowledgement. It's about introducing someone who will be instrumental to your journey."

Anos stepped back and gestured toward Fujitora, continuing, "This is Fujitora, who will serve as the general of our special operations forces!"

The announcement sent a wave of shock through the ranks. The soldiers were caught off guard by the sudden introduction of a leader they'd never seen before.

Despite their confusion, no one uttered a word. Anos's authoritative presence ensured complete silence.

"Fujitora, the floor is yours," Anos said with a nod.

"Gladly," Fujitora replied. He stepped forward, his movements slow and deliberate as he leaned on his cane. It didn't take long for the soldiers to realize their new general was blind.

"Greetings," Fujitora began. "My name is Fujitora. It is an honour to serve under His Majesty and to be entrusted with the role of general in the Tru Kingdom. From this day forward, I am one of you. Together, we shall advance and overcome any challenge."

Though his introduction was brief, what followed left the soldiers in awe. Without warning, Fujitora unleashed his gravity-based powers, increasing the weight around the entire training ground.

The immense pressure forced many soldiers to their knees, with some collapsing entirely.

Both Daiki and Abona exchanged glances, now fully understanding why Anos had personally recruited Fujitora. His overwhelming strength and mastery of the Gravity Fruit made him an ideal leader for the special forces.

Fujitora's ability would not only test their endurance but also accelerate their mastery of Haki.

With such a training regimen, the soldiers of the Tru Kingdom would grow stronger at an unprecedented rate.
