The sky was clear and the seagulls were soaring in the sky. Yao took a deep breath and smelled the salty sea breeze. He was on the patrol of the neighbouring water along with his division mates. He looked at the vast ocean and gleed. He stretched out his hands and shouted towards the ocean, "I AM GOING TO BE THE BEST MARINE THERE EVER LIVES!"
Laughters broke out from behind him, as his comrades began to crowd around him. "Sure you will, Yao. Sure you will." said his comrades as one of them threw him a mop, "But first, you ought to finish mopping the deck or the Captain will screw us, you know?" Yao had just entered the Marines as a new recruit, but he was sure that one day he will become one of the best Marines that ever live, and maybe, he might even become part of the Cipher Pol 9!

With the mop in his hand, Yao continued with his chores. This was something that recruits like him have to do, the captain issue this kind of labourous, non-glorious job to recruits like him, but he had to do them, since he had chosen this career path. He gradually finished his task, and was returning back to the store. But just as he was walking back, the ship started to shake violently. Yao looked over into the ocean and saw something welling up from within. A huge monstrous face suddenly appeared out of the ocean, staring at Yao. Immediately, the whole crew appeared on deck to face the monster. A Sea King had appeared and was now looming over the marines with a hungry look over his eyes.
