"Ding, congratulations to the host for successfully creating the Xuanwu Navy and announcing it to the whole world, obtaining mission rewards: Mysterious Treasure Chest *1, Troop Enhancement Stone *10."
"Ding, starting from the day the Xuanwu Navy was created, within seven days, eliminate three pirate groups. Mission complete, reward: A-grade Special Forces Summoning Stone *1, Xuanwu Warship *1. Mission started, please host complete the mission promptly, otherwise the rewards will be confiscated, and the special forces already summoned into this world will be deployed to the world's Naval Headquarters."
"Ding, due to the system detecting the establishment of the Xuanwu Navy, the daily summoning limit for special forces for the host has increased to 500 people."
"Ding, due to the host announcing the establishment of the Xuanwu Navy to the whole world, special forces awaiting summoning from all over the world are on their way and are expected to arrive within a month. New summoned special forces will report in batches."
Benedict's eyes narrowed as he heard this.
A-grade Special Forces Summoning Stone: Can summon an A-grade special forces with special abilities and S-grade potential, which can be enhanced with Troop Enhancement Stones.
"An A-grade Special Forces Summoning Stone, that's great!"
"I've just obtained ten Troop Enhancement Stones, so they'll be put to good use."
Benedict thought this and couldn't help but feel expectant.
What kind of combat power would a special force with S-grade potential possess?
Glancing at the ten Troop Enhancement Stones lying in his system space, Benedict's gaze turned to the Mysterious Treasure Chest, and he said expectantly, "System, I want to open the treasure chest!"
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the skill 'Eight Inner Gates' Grandmaster level."
As the system's voice sounded, Benedict felt the power surging within him, which calmed down after a moment.
Benedict glanced at his information interface.
《Special Forces Summoning System》
Host: Benedict
Age: 18 years old.
Identity: Marshal of the Xuanwu Navy.
Abilities: Indestructible Physique, Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu, Talent Enhancement, Rokushiki * Grandmaster Level, Armament Haki Lv1, Observation Haki Lv1, Conqueror's Haki Lv3, Eight Inner Gates * Grandmaster Level.
Looking at the information before him, Benedict felt comforted.
The results of three years of day and night training had already given him the ability to fight at Admiral level.
"So, next, it's time to eliminate three pirate groups."
"Troublesome, I can only act alone now."
Riding a canoe out of the harbor, Benedict smiled as he saw a pirate ship approaching.
"Yo, they're delivering themselves."
"This saves time and effort."
In the distance, approaching the Xuanwu Navy base was the Black Poker Pirate Group, with a total of thirty-one members, led by Captain Martin, who had a bounty of 3 million Berries.
"Captain, a small fry has been spotted on the sea."
"That small fry seems to be Benedict, the one who declared himself Marshal of the Xuanwu Navy in the propaganda posters."
On the deck, from the crow's nest, a skinny man holding a telescope looked at Benedict standing on the canoe and quickly shouted down to Captain Martin, who was drinking.
The other crew members heard this and all came to the ship's side to observe Benedict.
"Look over there, it really is a naval base."
"Hiss, they actually built a naval base. Does that mean there will be hundreds of thousands of marines here?"
"Quick, retreat, we're walking into a trap."
Some people spotted Benedict, while others spotted the massive naval base displayed in the harbor.
For a moment, these pirates were shocked and terrified.
"That's not right. We are very familiar with this sea route and often pass by. When was it converted into a naval base? How come we didn't know anything about it?"
Despite their fear, someone quickly reacted and shouted.
Martin, as the captain, was also familiar with this route and understood that there was no naval base built on this island before.
Furthermore, building such a large-scale naval base would require a huge amount of manpower, resources, and time.
But they had never seen any marines building a naval base here.
"Captain, it's impossible for such a massive naval base to appear and be built without anyone noticing."
"Perhaps there's some secret behind this, and these buildings are just a smokescreen."
A middle-aged man with a goatee and glasses, who was Martin's deputy, said thoughtfully.
Martin pondered for a moment and immediately made a decision. He went to the bow of the ship and shouted, "Boys, full speed ahead, capture that brat alive, and land on the island."
With the captain's order, the pirates who were still fearful now showed excited expressions and let out cheers.
Little did they know that their journey this time would cost them their lives.
Benedict watched the pirate group accelerating towards him, his smile growing wider.
"You are Benedict, the one who claims to be the Marshal of the Xuanwu Navy."
Martin stood at the bow of the ship, looking down at Benedict on the canoe, and sneered dismissively, "Although I don't know how you managed to distribute posters all over the world, you will now die at the hands of our Black Poker Pirate Group, and expose your lies to the whole world."
As Martin spoke, he specifically observed the naval base in the harbor.
It was quiet, with no living soul.
So, this was an empty naval base?
Or was it fake?
But it looked very real.
However, the brat in front of him was too weak.
"Lies?"
Benedict heard this and showed a gentle smile, saying, "So, do you want to go to Azkaban for tea?"
"Tea?"
"Hahaha, what's tea compared to drinking wine?"
A pirate heard Benedict's words and laughed mockingly.
The others also joined in with laughter.
"Since that's the case, then go inside and experience a life without joy."
Seeing them so happy, Benedict decided to make them forget joy and embrace pain.
Thus, under the mocking gazes of Martin and the others, Benedict's body radiated a powerful pressure that instantly enveloped the entire Black Poker Pirate Group.
Martin and the others, who were laughing moments ago, instantly stopped laughing, foaming at the mouth and passing out.
Leaping up, he landed on the pirate ship and looked at everyone who had fainted, a satisfied smile on his face. "Dealing with these pawns, Conqueror's Haki is indeed more effective. And the pirate ship is saved."
"Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu!"
In an instant, fifty shadow clones appeared around Benedict. They first stripped all valuable items from Martin and the other pirates, then each grabbed one and dashed across the sea, heading towards the underwater prison, Azkaban.
The remaining shadow clones controlled the pirate ship and sailed towards the harbor, staying to guard it.
Benedict had just realized that if he left the Xuanwu Navy base, no one would be there to guard it.
Therefore, leaving shadow clones behind was a good plan.
And so, Benedict stepped onto his canoe and continued to sail the sea, searching for the next pirate group.
