Chapter 511: Adjutant Ain
Naito was quite familiar with Ain's character. So after a little pondering, Naito sent a message to Sengoku.
As a Vice Admiral, Naito hasn't assigned an adjutant because he usually doesn't care about anything or handles anything, and an adjutant is similar to having a secretary, assisting marines affairs.
Marines who have higher ranks are provided with adjutants.
The letter than Naito has sent to Sengoku said that he wanted to have an adjutant, and he specifically mentioned Ain to be his adjutant.
Sengoku received this message from Naito and felt very strange.
Because Naito hasn't taken the initiative to request an adjutant and even refused to have one, but now he asks explicitly for Ain to be his adjutant.
Ain was Z student, and Sengoku didn't see anything special in her, and he didn't know how Naito even knows about her and why he chose her.
Could it be because she's a beautiful girl?!
It seems to be the only explanation.
When he thought of this, Sengoku didn't get angry; his eyes actually flashed with a bright color. He wasn't afraid that Naito might have an unusual hobby; he was worried that Naito hadn't had any hobbies.
If Naito doesn't care about anything, then obviously he doesn't care about the marines either. Maybe he will decide to leave the marines.
But now it seems that Naito's preferences have been discovered. As long as there are preferences, this will be easy to handle.
Feeling that he had grasped the key point, Sengoku didn't hesitate to approve directly and assigned Ain to become Naito's adjutant.
…….
The upper-middle floor of the Marines Headquarters. This is the floor where the Vice Admirals are located. One of them is Naito's separate office, and Garp also is on this floor.
But most of the time, Garp would go to Sengoku's office to steal food.
At this moment, outside Naito's office, a girl with blue hair was standing carrying documents in her hands, with a trace of anxiety in her beautiful big eyes.
She was wearing a windproof coat of Naval commander, and because she became Naito's adjutant, she was directly promoted from a major first-level into a lieutenant colonel.
She was initially an adjutant to another Vice Admiral. But she was suddenly transferred to Naito's side after less than a month, and she got promoted to a higher rank too, which made feel really strange.
Moreover, Vice Admiral Yuu Naito was extremely unfamiliar to her. It seemed that a while ago, there has never been a Vice-Admiral with this name. It seemed as if he had emerged out of thin air.
But the name alone seemed to be a bit familiar to her, and she didn't know where she heard of it.
She didn't know what kind of a person Naito is, or how fierce he will be as a Vice Admiral. After taking a deep breath, Ain stretched out her hand and knocked gently on the door.
"Come in."
Hearing the sound emitted from inside, Ain opened the door and walked in.
After entering the office, Ain suddenly showed a hint of surprise.
The office was extremely clean and tidy. The wooden floor was bright. There was only one desk, one chair, and one recliner in the entire room.
There was no one behind the desk or on the reclining chair. However, an extremely handsome young man with white hair was sitting on the floor in the middle of the room.
Looking at this young man who seemed to be about her age, Ain was taken aback, then couldn't help but ask, "What… Is Vice Admiral Yuu Naito here?"
"You're Ain?"
Naito stood up, and after glancing at her, he recognized her identity but still asked casually.
"Yes."
Ain nodded, watched Naito stand up, then observed him for a while.
Amazing!
This is the only word she could think of.
Naito's appearance was something she has never seen before, almost impeccable, just like a person walking out of a fairy tale, his body was perfect, and it even gave vibes of noble temperament.
His eyes seemed ordinary, but it seemed as if a deep starry sky was in them. Just looking at each other made Ain lose consciousness for an instant.
Ain was sure that in the entire Marines Headquarters, or in the world as a whole, absolutely no one could be compared with Naito in terms of appearance and aura.
Ain came at a very coincidental time. It happened that Naio has just finished cultivating. Otherwise, under normal circumstances, he would have looked like an ordinary person.
Naito has always adjusted his temperament to avoid such situations.
After standing quietly for a while, Ain suddenly came back to her senses, and a flush appeared on her cheeks. She then lowered her head and never dared to look at him directly again. At the same time, she said in a slightly flustered tone: "May I ask who you…"
"Aren't you here to report?"
Looking at her, Naito smiled.
Hearing Naito's words, Ain suddenly raised her head again, looking at him with some disbelief, and asked again in doubtfully, "Are you…"
"Yuu Naito."
Naito nodded at her, then walked behind his desk and sat down casually.
Ain was stunned again.
She had never thought that this young man in front of her was actually the Vice Admiral, Yuu Naito!
Naito, in front of her, seemed to be less than 20 years old. Although he appeared to be at the same age as her, he was already a Vice Admiral!
At that moment, Ain finally remembered why she felt so familiar when she heard Naito's name the first time. It was the guy who the newspaper reported that he drew with the world's greatest swordsman, Dracule Mihawk!
Later they reported that the young man's name was Yuu Naito. If you think of it like this, there should be no surprises. This person in front of her was the one who fought against Mihawk, the World's Greatest Swordsman.
What Ain didn't expect at all was that Naito will turn out to be a marine and a Vice-Admiral of the Marines Headquarters, who she would assist in the future.
"Sir Yuu Naito! I'm very sorry, I was so rude just now!"
After finally reacting, Ain saluted Naito all of a sudden, and at the same time, quickly pressed her inner feelings, and her expression became calm again.
However, the waves of feelings surging in her heart couldn't be subdued in a short time.
After saluting Naito, she put the document she was holding on the table in front of Naito. This document was her own information.
It recorded Ain's information, her previous experience in the marines, including her Devil Fruit Ability, as well as her height and weight.
However, the measurements weren't available.
"It seems that you were an adjutant to another Vice Admiral before."
Reading Ain's job resume, it seems that she was promoted to a first-grade major a month ago, and she served later as Vice Admiral Onigumo's adjutant.
"Yes."
Ain nodded, with a slight humble expression. Vice-Admiral Onigumo was known to being very vicious and cruel. He doesn't even care about the lives of his subordinates. Ain was still a bit fearful of him.
However, Ain was one of the former Admiral Z's disciples who cared a lot about them. Almost everyone in the Marines Headquarters was once a student of Z, including the three current Admirals.
"So…"
Naito touched his chin and put the documents in his hands on the table.
She had just served as Onigumo for less than a month, but she was forced to come over. It's estimated that Onigumo would be very upset now.
Naito thought about it for a moment, then he didn't care anymore. Onigumo? Even if it was Akainu himself, so what?!
If he's upset, he can come to practice a bit with Naito. After all, that's why he wanted to join the marines in the first place. Naito was gonna use them to hone his swordsmanship.
And, of course, more importantly, to study more about Time Ability.
