# Chapter 675: In the Future, Only Meritorious Nobility?!
Three-Year Combat Power Assessment Outline
Sengoku, Zephyr, and the others heard Kong mention this, and their gazes subconsciously focused on the headline on the third line.
They could feel that this might be the most important content among them.
However, Garp didn't pay much attention to these things. Instead, he laughed heartily and said, "So, does this mean guys like Issho, Bullet, Crocodile, and Aramaki are about to be promoted to Admiral?"
Kong, however, Shake Head.
"Cough cough, promotion to Admiral, while Combat Strength Level is the primary requirement, there are also requirements for Military Merit and Qualifications. So, whether Issho and Aramaki can be promoted still needs further Consideration."
Immediately after, he revealed information that was surprising yet not entirely unexpected.
"As for Crocodile, there's no problem with him being promoted to Admiral. After all, he's an Army Headquarters Admiral Candidate."
"Oh right... that Kid Bullet, the Command Department has already decided to officially promote him to Army Headquarters Admiral next year. His Code Name will still be the current 'Ghost Shark'."
There wasn't much to say about Crocodile's Matter, but everyone was more interested in Bullet's promotion to Admiral.
Sakazuki frowned directly, his mood instantly becoming displeased, although he knew this kind of thing would happen sooner or later.
In the Future, Crocodile will most likely also be promoted to Army Headquarters Admiral.
This made him somewhat complain that Vice Admirals like Onigumo and Doberman, who came from orthodox backgrounds, were disappointing, giving these Bastards of Pirate Origin the opportunity to become Admirals.
Honestly speaking.
If the Military had one or two 'insiders' whose Strength was comparable to Bullet and Crocodile, Sakazuki would definitely intervene to obstruct the latter's Promotion and fully support the former's rise.
Unfortunately, there are no such Human currently.
"Also, regarding the Air Force, the newly arrived Colonel Enel, given his Logia System Rumble-Rumble Fruit Ability and excellent Martial Arts and Haki, will be directly promoted to Commodore next year and simultaneously given the Epithet 'Air Force Headquarters Admiral Candidate'."
When Kong finished speaking this part.
The expressions of the Big Shots present varied.
Kuzan raised an eyebrow, the scene of their meeting at that Time appearing in his mind.
Borsalino thought of the Lightning Kid he saw on Noah's Ark when escorting Pure Gold before.
And Kaido was confused about who Enel was.
This wasn't strange.
Because when Enel left Noah's Ark and went from the Titan World to the Sea Star Mainland, it happened to be when he went from the Sea Star Mainland to the Imperial Arms World.
And Zephyr still remained in the Military and Political Department on the Red Line side for most of the Time, as he was only a part-time Fleet Admiral of the Air Force.
So, when Enel reported to the Air Force Headquarters 'Elbais', whether it was the Fleet Admiral or the Admirals, it could be said he didn't see a single one.
"Cough cough, Minister Kong, regarding this Matter of Enel, let This Old Man understand the Human first before talking about it."
Zephyr wouldn't completely believe based solely on Kong's evaluation, so he needed to first confirm Enel's Personality, character, and his level in Martial Arts and Haki.
"Okay."
Minister Kong didn't mind. Although he was the Commander-in-Chief, the Promotion of lower-level Officers indeed required the approval of the Marshal of the Three Forces.
Otherwise, even if he issued the Promotion Order from his side, it would be useless if the Three Military Branches Headquarters didn't accept it.
However, Kong, who had some understanding of Enel, wasn't worried at all that Zephyr would look down on Enel.
This was a Logia System Rumble-Rumble Fruit User who had proficiently mastered the basic Technique of the Six Powers and also knew Armament Haki and Observation Haki!
He could be called a significant boost for the Air Force Headquarters.
Didn't you see the Acidic Liquid mixed with envy and jealousy gushing out from Sengoku like a fountain?
Thinking of this.
Kong's Gaze subtly glanced at Borsalino, who was sitting on the chair at the very end and didn't care about the Conversation here at all, and he felt a sudden urgency in his Heart.
They, the Military's Management, actually all knew that Zephyr's concurrent post as Fleet Admiral of the Air Force couldn't last long.
They had to find a suitable Candidate to replace Zephyr.
But they looked left, looked right, looked up, looked down... it seemed... there was only Borsalino as a Candidate.
Otherwise, what to do?
It was impossible to let Human of Pirate Origin like Kaido and Shiki become Fleet Admiral, but the problem was that this Kid Borsalino completely lacked ambition.
"That's about it for the Military Rank adjustment. Just keep it in mind. Don't reveal it to those below for now, understand, Garp?"
Kong called out his name meaningfully and said.
He was too Familiarize with the other party's carefree, casual, and blabbermouth way of doing things, so he could only emphasize like this, trying to make the other party have some secrecy Consciousness.
Garp laughed heartily indifferently after hearing this. "Puhahaha, no problem, I won't tell others, you can rest assured, Old Fleet Admiral!"
However, with his look of making a guarantee, it was difficult for Human who understood him to truly rest assured.
"Alright, let's look at the next one."
Kong silently sighed helplessly in his Heart, then Control the Den Den Mushi at hand to switch to the next slide. Immediately, a large amount of Writing and Diagram appeared on the Virtual Screen in Mid-air.

Further down...
There were also 'Three Military Marshals Collective/Individual Commendation Order', 'Sea Star Combat Hero Medal', 'Wave Cross War Medal', 'Three Military Glory Medal', and so on.
Each one had large sections of explanatory text and was accompanied by exquisite Diagram of the certificates and medals.
The amount of Information Volume was so huge that Sengoku, Zephyr, and the others took almost thirty minutes just to roughly Scan from beginning to end.
Among these, the point that most interested these Admirals was not the Honor and Prize Money, but rather the mention of Peerage and Territory.
Kaido was the first to be unable to resist his Curiosity and asked, "What is the World Government Twenty-Level Military Merit Peerage System?"
"The Twenty-Level Military Merit Peerage System, presumably some of you have already heard rumors about it. This is actually also a reform project that will be announced and implemented next year."
"It's just that the detailed Rules haven't been perfected yet, so it hasn't been released here. Everyone just needs to know that in the Future, you can indeed use Merits to Obtain Peerage, possess Territory, and become Nobility!"
Kong strongly suppressed the few words he didn't say out loud, Scan everyone present with a calm Expression, and said easily.
So, what did he want to say?
That is, in the Future, the World Government might only allow one to become Nobility by establishing Merits!
Special Note: The "Marine Calendar 1502 World Government Military System Reform Plan: New System for Merits and Honors Commendation" in the book was independently designed and suggested by Councilor Molotov.
I just slightly adapted the awarding Content based on the World Government Situation in the book. I am very grateful to Councilor Molotov for the strong Support for this book!
