Chapter 179 Iron Army Selection, a Rich Talent

Not everyone has such a strong appeal as Lu Kai.

If the conscription order issued by Lu Kai was not in his personal name and he did not guarantee to train and lead the team personally, but in the name of G1 or the Navy Headquarters, the effect might be greatly reduced.

The number of strong people willing to come may be greatly reduced, because many people actually do not trust the navy.

Although the situation had developed normally, the Marine Headquarters had taken the initiative to recruit soldiers from around the world more than 20 years later, and recruited masters like Fujitora and Green Bull, but such recruitment actually had huge hidden dangers.

It is difficult for those who have not worked their way up from the grassroots level of the navy to have a sense of belonging to the navy, and it is easy for spies or people with ulterior motives to infiltrate the navy.

Just like the later Admiral Fujitora of the Navy Headquarters, his purpose of joining the Navy was to abolish the Seven Warlords of the Sea system, and as for the orders of Marshal Sakaski, Fujitora only obeyed orders and did not take them seriously at all.

Fujitora and Green Bull are just two of them. There are also many who were recruited into the Naval World and became vice admirals, major generals or other officers.

Perhaps on the surface, the navy has become stronger, but when the critical moment comes, no one knows what these people's positions are and what they will do.

Although the Navy Headquarters and the World Government will investigate the resumes of these people, as long as arrangements are made in advance, the Navy will not be able to detect any foul play.

For example, Doflamingo's cadre Vergo, who was undercover in the navy for 15 years and became the vice admiral base commander, but no one noticed that there was anything wrong with him.

His resume is also quite clean, including Lu Kai's resume. Anyone who checks it will find it clean.

Also, if this is promoted in other places, can the generals achieve absolute fairness and justice like Lu Kai?

For example, a certain general followed Lu Kai's example and established a force similar to the "Iron Army". However, because this general was not fair, he stuffed his own confidants and direct subordinates into this force in order to get high military pay and merit.

Once known to others, this move would not only fail to achieve its goal, but might also cause the soldiers under it to continue to accumulate resentment, ultimately achieving the opposite effect.

In other words, do other generals have the confidence like Lu Kai to guarantee the Navy Headquarters that the excess treatment of the "Iron Army" or the reserve force will be handled by the G1 branch itself?

Luke's report mentioned that the extra military funds they gave to the 'Iron Army' or the reserve force would be subsidized by withholding a portion of the treasure they seized each time they defeated the pirates.

And even if other people can do the above two points, Lu Kai also possesses four major advantages that others do not have.

The first advantage is that Lu Kai’s ability to guide others in training is unmatched in the entire world.

The second advantage is that although Fuya will not demonstrate the healing ability of the transfer fruit in front of any outsiders, she can extract essences that are beneficial to life from many plants and add them to some medicinal materials.

By providing the 'Iron Army' with precious medicinal food, their physical fitness can be improved and hidden injuries or fatigue accumulated during their training can be eliminated.

The third advantage is that Lu Kai secretly went to the Shemale Island and mastered 99 recipes on the Shemale Island that can improve physical fitness.

This recipe will also be an exclusive benefit for the 'Iron Army' and the reserve team, and will be named the Iron Army Recipe.

The fourth advantage is that Lu Kai's "Iron Army" has two general-level strongmen in charge, namely Lu Kai himself and Xiaolong, and also has Fu Ya, who Lu Kai believes is the world's strongest staff, to formulate tactics.

This means that as long as they go out, they will be invincible, and the soldiers of the "Iron Army" will be able to get training without suffering too many casualties.

After all, Lu Kai’s main purpose is to cultivate his own people, and he can’t bear to let these people die easily.

With the Navy Headquarters approving Luke's application and making Luke's conscription order public to the world, G1's two-month conscription officially began.

The reason why it took two months to recruit soldiers was mainly because the world was so big, and it would take a lot of time to travel from many places to the new G1.

In order to provide maximum support to Lu Kai, the Navy Headquarters set up 10 gathering points around the world, one in each of the four major seas of the east, west, south and north, and three each in the New World and the Grand Line.

Those who want to join G1 can gather nearby and then be escorted to G1 by warships dispatched by the headquarters. In fact, this treatment is not unique to Lu Kai. The Navy Headquarters also took such measures when recruiting soldiers.

The difference is that the recruitment of soldiers by the Navy Headquarters is first carried out in various naval branches, and the outstanding candidates are then escorted to the headquarters by warships.

However, this is enough to prove how much the Navy Headquarters values ​​Lu Kai. At least, no other general in the Navy branch can get this kind of treatment.

Of course, in order not to arouse the emotions of other generals, the military expenses of the warship will be borne by the G1 branch of the Navy. However, Luke can only owe it to the headquarters first, saying that he will pay the fee after he defeats the pirates and seizes their treasures.

The Navy Headquarters also agreed.

There was no other way. Who had Lu Kai just recently handed over all the stolen money that Stanway had obtained through various means to the headquarters? Who had made the headquarters really anxious to change the situation of G1?

As a result, countless people who had dreams, admired Lu Kai, and believed that they could meet the requirements began to gather towards G1, and the number of people who came reached more than .

Looking at the good seedlings, Lu Kai also cherished talents. After selecting and admitting 3000 of them, Lu Kai expressed his willingness to write recommendation letters for the remaining people, recommending them to join the army in other nearby branches. Those with outstanding performance could go directly to the headquarters.

Among the more than 1 people who were not selected by G, half chose to accept Lu Kai's recommendation. After all, they were already here, and although they failed to become Lu Kai's subordinates, it was not a bad idea to become his colleagues in the future. Moreover, with their abilities, they would be valued if they went to other places.

As for the remaining people who were unwilling to join other naval branches, Lu Kai sent warships to send them back to the gathering point, and gave each person round-trip fare to the gathering point and a little compensation.

If the Navy Headquarters had not only given Lu Kai 3000 places for expansion, Lu Kai would have really wanted to accept all of these people, because there were many talented people among those who were not selected, and Lu Kai was itching to accept them.

After the conscription was over, Lu Kai immediately began selecting the "Iron Army". Eventually, he selected 1 people from all 6000 people in G500 to form the first "Iron Army". This Iron Army was also Lu Kai's first direct force.

There are also 2000 people who failed to become part of the 'Iron Army', but joined the 'Iron Army' reserve team. Many of them are eager to join the 'Iron Army'.

Many of the people who came made Lu Kai's eyes light up, and this time Lu Kai really got countless treasures.

Among those who came to join G1, there was one who had the strength of a newly promoted vice admiral. This person was called Latilos, he was years old, and he came from Farmani Island in the New World.

Latilos was admitted as an exception because he exceeded the age limit for conscription according to Lukai's standards. However, with such strength, there was no reason not to accept him. Otherwise, Lukai felt that he would be punished by God.
