"Boss, we agreed on three years back then, but after three years, it was another three years, and then another three years. Tomorrow I become Fleet Admiral. Let's wrap this up! I don't want to spend every day walking on eggshells. I just want to go back to being an ordinary Revolutionary Army soldier." Joel.
"Brother, precisely because you've reached such an important position, I can't let you come back. You've finally made it this far: you're Fleet Admiral and a trusted man of the Celestial Dragons. If you come back now, all our efforts will have been for nothing!" Monkey D. Dragon.
"Then when can I return to the Revolutionary Army?" Joel.
"Three years. I promise this is the last three years!" Monkey D. Dragon. "Here's your Revolutionary Army bonus for this year. Take it!"
"This much?"
"After all, Luffy had you looking out for him during the Paramount War. You deserve it." Monkey D. Dragon.
"Ahem. For the sake of the bonus... I mean, for the great cause of the Revolutionary Army, I'll put up with another three years. But we agreed, this is the last three years." Joel.
This is the story of a low-ranking Revolutionary Army soldier who goes undercover in the Navy, rises all the way to Fleet Admiral, and only wants to return to the Revolutionary Army and be an ordinary soldier again.
No System, no transmigration, and a slow-burn pace. Hope you enjoy it.
