Heroic Spirit Template in One Piece Chapter 363 366: Comparison, So Terrifying

A few more days passed, and the Neo Navy's world recruitnt ca to an end.

It wasn't because no one else wanted to join, but because the recruitnt quota had already been filled. Any additional recruits would be excessive and a burden.

Interestingly, the Neo Navy had recruited 50% new soldiers and 50% veterans, totaling 3.08 million personnel.

The new recruits were naturally young and strong n from all over. While physically capable, they lacked any training or combat experience. They were true greenhorns.

As for the veterans, they were forr Marines. Though experienced from nurous battles, they had already surpassed the minimum standards for physical and combat readiness.

These were the people whose faith had been shaken by what Caelan previously revealed and had since turned toward the light.

Combined with the 3.08 million new recruits and the 500,000 veterans retained from before the Battle of Marineford, the total combat strength of the Neo Navy now exceeded 3.58 million.

This figure didn't include the full-ti logistics personnel. If those were included, the total number would reach the tens of millions.

Even without waiting for the new recruits to finish training, the Neo Navy already had enough power to take control of the world.

At the sa ti, the World Governnt's large-scale conscription also ca to a halt.

It wasn't because they didn't want to recruit more, but because they simply couldn't. They were forced to give up.

Even so, including the civilians and slaves they had captured, they managed to gather 501,321 new soldiers.

However, even with these additions, the current size of the Marine force was only about one-fifth of what it used to be, sitting at around 1.5 million sailors.

Fortunately, the World Governnt had recruited three brand new admirals.

The addition of these three Logia-type users was sothing they could proudly announce.

After all, the common people of the world were unaware of the Knights of God. Seeing three admirals join the Marines gave the impression that the World Governnt still had so fight left in them.

Thus, the Neo Navy and the World Governnt both issued announcents, showcasing their respective recruitnt results.

Just like with the earlier recruitnt propaganda, the World Governnt's results were published alongside the Neo Navy's achievents by the World Economy News and distributed to the entire world.

The front page of the newspaper was clean and flat, printed with the Neo Navy's results.

[On November 20, 1520 of the Sea Circle Calendar, the fourteen-day World Recruitnt has concluded. The Neo Navy welcos 3.08 million new comrades. Under the leadership of Supre Commander Caelan, the Neo Navy marches toward new glory.]

[At the sa ti, the Neo Navy officially confirms the appointnt of six admirals: Fujitora Issho, Buddha Sengoku, Black Arm Zephyr, Momousagi Gion, Aokiji Kuzan, and Kizaru Borsalino. These six are the first batch of admirals in the Neo Navy.]

[...With Supre Commander Caelan and the six admirals at the helm, the Neo Navy is destined to achieve final victory.]

On the back of the newspaper were the World Governnt's conscription results.

[After fourteen days, the World Governnt and the Marines recruited a total of 501,321 soldiers. A gratifying outco. World Economy News note: the current total strength of the Marines stands between 1.5 to 2 million personnel, a force still to be reckoned with.]

[In addition to the 500,000 aspiring recruits, three admirals with extraordinary vision have joined the World Governnt. Admiral Golden Bear Castellon, Admiral Ryokugyu Aramaki, and Admiral Black Snake Urther are all Logia-type Devil Fruit users, drawn by their admiration for the World Governnt's 800 years of prestige.]

[Saint Jaygarcia Saturn: The power of the World Governnt, forged over eight hundred years, remains as mighty as ever. Though storms may co, it will ultimately endure.]

The mont this double-sided newspaper was published and circulated globally, it imdiately drew massive attention.

The first to start talking were the new recruits of the Neo Navy.

"The Neo Navy got 3.08 million recruits. We can't even find space for the extra 80,000."

"The World Governnt only recruited a little over 500,000 soldiers. They're so desperate they might as well try squeezing out every last drop from the n's sacks!" Morik burst out laughing as he looked at the paper.

"The more you lack, the more you try to show off. Still, are there really 500,000 idiots willing to join the World Governnt?" Hans asked, puzzled.

Logically speaking, after the Battle of Marineford, the World Governnt and the Marines had completely lost their credibility. The truth behind the pirates had been exposed by the God Slayer.

After that, the entire World Governnt shrank to a re fraction of its original size, with territory reduced to less than one-third.

For such a decayed regi to still recruit soldiers was already unbelievable, but the fact that 500,000 people joined was downright absurd.
