33 Marine G8 base

Year-1513…

Marineford…

After losing his duel against Gion it was unknown how long he was unconscious but the sound of rumbling woke from his sleep and while his eyes are still close the noise from the cracking from the rice crackers is like sounds from cannon fire or thunderstorms which ks really unbearable for his sleep.

Although his eyes are closed the noise made him twitch his eyebrows when he heard Garp's outburst "Bwahahaham... You lost against the little sister of Tsuru I can't believe it. "

From the way Garp is laughing Ry9 knew Garp has detected he has wakened up and knew it is not possible for him to sleep anymore so with an angry shout he woke up to argue against Garp standing up on the bed and pointing at Garo angrily "Damn you, Garp, you can't you see I am injured. "

With that, they started arguing when someone called from the door "Vice-Admiral Garp please don't make so much disturbance in the hospital, there are patents in the hospital that needs rest. "

"We are sorry. " Ryo said looking at the doctor who left with a nod accepting his apologies when he snapped out and asked "Wait a minute why am I apologizing instead of you? "

After another round of arguments, they finally started having a normal conversation as Ryo asked "So what happened with your grandson? "

"Don't ask me what happened?

Thinking about it makes me so angry that I want to go and beat the shit out of that damn red hair. " Garp replied with a frustrated face while crashing the rice crackers in his hand.

"When are we going? " Ryo asked with a smile while taking a bite from an apple from his bedside as if he is talking about a newbie pirate, not an Emperor.

"Ah forget it beating the red hair is too much of a hassle he never stays in a single place.

Besides I have left him with Dadan and her gang he will be fine and visiting him from time to time will fix him up. " Garp said with a sigh.

'You are just too lazy to run after him admit it old man. ' Ryo thought inside but didn't say out loud because if he says he will have to suffer under the fist of love again although he usually doesn't care about the punches however today is different and getting punched with worsen his injuries and that will be even worse so he decided to ask instead with a smile "You mean Curly Dadan the mountain Bandit with who you have left your Adapted grandson who is at the same age as me right? "

"Yes, that is where I left Ace and I am sure the two brothers will be happy and staying there Luffy will not want to become a pirate king. " Garp said with a serious face.

"Ahahhaa… you took your grandson to a Mountain Bandit for him to change his mind, I can't believe it haha haha… " Ryo started laughing looking at Garp as if he is the biggest idiot in the world.

"You say he will be fine than tell me did Ace change his mind about being the Pirate King yet? " Ryo asked back with a smile.

"He will sooner or later if he doesn't I will make him. " Garp said with a serious face.

"I am sure you will. " After that, they argued for a while and finally Garp left saying "Congratulation on your promotion brat. "

"Thank you for your training old man. " Ryo said behind him with a smile.

After Garp left Hina came to visit him with Smoker and from them, he got to know he was unconscious for a and they will also apply for an official Marine ranking as soon as possible and left while Hina added she will apply to join the same base as him.

After another day of rest, Ryo's wound healed completely as he got called in the Fleet-Admiral's office where Gion was waiting for him.

"This will be your Marine Justice coat. " Sengoku said pointing at a white coat inside a transparent case.

After that, he left with Gion in her battleship saying goodbye to Garp and asking him to take him for a visit in his home village the next time he goes to visit Luffy and Ace.

Although a Marine Base in the Grandline is commanded and works under a Marine Vice-Admiral however the current highest commanding officer of this base is a Rear-Admiral Gion and the Vice- Admiral who should be stationed in this base is chasing after a Pirate in New World and left her to take care of everything here and she has become the highest authority in this base for a few months from then on.

On his way here from a new Marine recruit of this base, he got to know directly under her is a Commodore named Jonathan who is in his early 30s and the tactician for most of the operation around here and today Ryo has joined her as another Commodore for helping in the base although she wasn't happy about him joining her base as she thought he might cause more trouble than solve the problems because of his age.

Although Sengoku and other acceptance of his strength, she has never doubted in his straight however from her previous experience she knows the young people have hot blood and temper.

They are reckless most of the time and will do things without considering for the consequences and when she lost against him in the first round in the fight she thought he judgment of the kid can't be more right but after the 2nd round her view of him changed a 180 turn and she respected him for his swordsmanship and so was Ryo but they never spoke about it to one another but inside promised to improve and challenging the one another.

Upon landing at the port of the G8 base they found some of the battleships are broken and getting fixed as Gion asked looking at an injured Jonathan "What happend while I was not present? "

"While on a daily patrol we discovered…"
