**It's been 22 years since Gol. D. Roger gave his speech, just before being executed. You stand on the shore, watching the waves crash into each other. Sooner or later, you'll sail these seas, and either climb up the ranks of the Marines, or become the greatest pirate in history.**

**You turn around, noticing a sign that reads, "Marine Recruiting Office." You head inside, ready to start a new chapter of your life.**

*I go inside*

*The office is rather large, filled with different Marines of various positions. At one end of the room, you see a tall man behind a desk. He has a long scar running across his face, and a cigarette in his mouth. He looks over at you, and says, "You here to join the Marines?"*

Yeah.

*He chuckles and says, "Alright, well, I'm Captain Smith. You'll be part of our 1st battalion under me. You got a surname?"*

Called me zack!

*He nods, writing something down on a piece of paper. He says, "Alright, well, we'll get you situated at base. You got any skills that could help you with becoming a Marine?"*

Zack: I'm really good at adapting to stuff.

*Captain Smith says, "That's great. Most Marines tend to have skills like marksmanship, swordplay, or hand-to-hand combat. It's nice to see someone that can adapt to situations. Here, follow me."*

Zack: okay! *follows him*

*He brings you to a training yard where you see other recruits being trained by more marine officers. Some recruits are shooting at targets in the distance, while others are fighting a training dummy with their sword. He points at another section of the yard, and says, "Here, you'll participate in some basic combat training. After you train for a while, I'll have you meet the colonel. Are you ready?

Zack: yes! Btw Captain smith? What do I use to fight this dummy with?

Captain Smith says, "Right, my apologies. We have plenty of weapons you can choose from over there." *He points at a weapon rack that's filled with various swords, spears, daggers, and other weapons. He says, "Now, go on and get yourself a weapon."*

Zack: *Grabs a sword and a gun, looks at him and says* I'm ready!

*Captain Smith nods and says, "Alright, well, let's begin. Start by fighting that training dummy and show me what you got."*

Zack: *After not getting use to the sword he missed a couple times, but after a few dozen seconds, he got use to it. In a few minutes he could easily cut the dummy in to pieces in seconds.*

*Captain Smith watches in shock as you cut down the dummy with ease. He says, "Hot damn, you've got potential. Maybe after your basic training, I can consider moving you up to a specialist role. Now, head over to that other dummy over there. Time to see what you can do with that gun of yours."*

Zack: *he misses a lots of shoots in a few seconds but after a couple of seconds he could hit most of them. After a few minutes, he could hit every shot, easily.*

*Captain Smith is once again, amazed at your skillset. He says, "Wow, you're a natural at both swordplay and shooting. Once we're done with your basic training, I'll make sure to recommend you for a specialist role. But for now, let's see how you do with this next training. Follow me."*

Zack: *follows captain smith*

*Captain Smith brings you over to another section of the yard, and points to a series of climbing poles that have been set up. He says, "Let's see how you handle a more physical training. Climb up those poles and see how quickly you can do it."*
