"Third brother, you damn cat, don't grab my roasted leg!!"
Kyle kicked Ace away, grabbed a roasted leg from the table in front of him, and looked toward Ace.
"Good things should be enjoyed by the big brother first, understand?"
As he spoke, Kyle's gaze turned toward Sabo and Luffy.
"Second brother, youngest brother, you are the same, you must learn to defer to the big brother!"
After saying that, Kyle took a bite of the roasted leg in his hand, a look of enjoyment appearing on his face.
This scene immediately made Luffy and the other two grit their teeth in frustration, anger flashing in their eyes.

"Dammit, the first thing I'll do when my strength surpasses yours is beat you into a chicken!!"
Ace said fiercely.
However, Kyle just looked at him disdainfully.
"Wait until your strength surpasses mine?"
"Hah, go back tonight and prop your pillow higher. Maybe you can achieve that unrealistic wish in your dreams!"
After Kyle became the big brother among the four, Luffy and the other two also settled their ranking.
The final result was Sabo slightly beating Ace, becoming the second brother.
Ace was stronger than Luffy, so he was the third brother.
Then Luffy naturally became the fourth brother.
Although Luffy had trained with Kyle for a while, the time was still too short overall.
Even after eating the Gum Gum Fruit, he still couldn't completely erase the three year age gap between him and Ace for now.
Not to mention Luffy, even Kyle, if he hadn't obtained the system and the various enhancements afterwards, might not be a match for Ace and the others either.
These guys' talents are still quite high.
But now though.
They are all weaklings!!
He could beat these three brothers into dogs with one hand!
Watching the three scrambling for food in front of him, Kyle leaned back in his chair slightly and asked Ace and the other two:
"Ace, Sabo!"
"Do you two have any thoughts about joining the Marines?"
"The Marines?"
Ace and Sabo's movements paused simultaneously as they curiously turned their heads.
"That's right! The Marines!"
"I believe you also know, that old codger Garp is a Marine, and Luffy and I are also Marines!"
After glancing at each other, they swallowed the food in their mouths, and Ace asked:
"If we join the Marines, are there any benefits?"
Hearing this, Kyle immediately showed a smile.
Hearing Ace's answer, Kyle knew that Ace at this time didn't yet have the desire to become a pirate like in the original story.
In that case, the difficulty of recruiting Ace into the Marines would be much lower for him.
So he smiled and said:
"There are plenty of benefits!"
"First, after joining the Marines, you won't have to worry about what to eat anymore. You can eat delicious feasts every day, and it's free!"
"Besides, the Marines also pay a salary every month, and you can get extra benefits from missions!"
"As for how much you can get, it depends on how bold you are!"
As he spoke, Kyle reached into his pocket, and when he pulled his hand out, several stacks of Berries appeared in his hand.
Looking at the three stunned faces, he said:
"This is one million Berries. Have you ever seen so many Berries before?"
Ace and Luffy both shook their heads vigorously. Only Sabo didn't shake his head, but his eyes were still filled with shock.
Sabo, coming from a noble background, had naturally seen this many Berries, or even more.
But the problem was, he had never possessed this much himself!
Especially after coming here and living with Ace, the two brothers didn't have a single Berry. Occasionally when they went to the village to buy things, they had to secretly take Dadan's Berries.
Kyle casually threw the stacks of Berries to them.
"These are yours now!"
"I can only say, follow me and be Marines, and you will definitely never lack for Berries! You'll live in luxury every day!"
Kyle revealed a smile.
These Berries were all taken by him when he conveniently took the Gum Gum Fruit from the ship's cabin.
And this little bit he took out was only a drop in the bucket compared to the treasure he took.
He had several hundred million Berries alone, plus quite a bit of gold and jewelry.
Kyle felt not a shred of guilt about taking their treasure.
Although he was a Marine, he wasn't that noble and upright.
His own quality of life definitely couldn't be low!!
The others caught the thrown Berries, their eyes full of daze.
"This, this is for us?!"
Ace was a bit dazed.
"Of course."
Kyle retorted.
"And it's not just this little bit. Follow me, and if you run out of Berries in the future, just ask me for more!"
"Plenty to go around!!"
"If it's not enough, we'll just go rob some!!!"
"In short, following Big Brother definitely won't let you down!"
If it's not enough, just rob?!
Ace and Sabo both looked a bit confused.
Is this something a Marine should say?
But.
It sounds really good!!
Ace and Sabo glanced at each other, determination flashing in their eyes. They looked at Kyle together and shouted loudly:
"Big Brother! We are willing to join the Marines!!"
Kyle smiled.
At the same time, a system prompt sounded in Kyle's ears.
[Congratulations host on recruiting Ace and Sabo. Rewards have been sent to the system space. Please check promptly!]
"Huh?!"
A trace of surprise appeared on Kyle's face.
Why did the reward arrive so quickly this time? When he recruited Luffy before, wasn't the reward only issued after officially joining the Marines?
...
After thinking for a good while, Kyle still couldn't figure out what was going on.
This stupid system doesn't give any hints, garbage!!
But it doesn't matter. Actually, this situation is better for him now, no need for those cumbersome procedures.
The curve of Kyle's smile grew wider.
Sure enough, as he predicted, recruiting Ace and Sabo at this time wasn't very difficult.
Of course, a big reason might also be that they had just sworn brotherhood.
The two brothers are Marines, their grandfather is a Marine, plus the benefits Kyle offered. With all these conditions, everything seemed easy.
Suddenly, as if thinking of something, a look of conflict appeared on Ace's face. He looked at Kyle and asked:
"If we join the Marines, do we have to leave Dadan?"
Speaking of this, visible sadness appeared on Ace's face.
Although he usually never listened to Dadan.
Just like Dadan treated him as a son, he had long regarded Dadan as his own mother.
If he had to part with Dadan, he would definitely be very reluctant.
Kyle glanced at him and said calmly:
"Who said that?"
"You join the Marines, just bring Dadan along. Isn't that simple?"
"This kind of small matter is very simple!"
As he spoke, Kyle looked toward the door and shouted:
"Right? Aunt Dadan! Stop eavesdropping. If you want to listen, come in and listen openly!"
Bang!!
As soon as these words were spoken, the wooden door suddenly burst open, and the figures of Garp and Dadan crashed in together.
This scene made the corner of Kyle's mouth twitch a little.
Does reality also not escape this kind of awkward plot from the anime?
The door never opens at any other time, but just when discovered, it suddenly opens in surprise.
It really is a classic!
Dadan climbed up from the ground slightly embarrassed. In contrast, Garp beside her had incredibly thick skin and didn't feel the slightest bit embarrassed.
Instead, he shot Kyle a satisfied look.
This kid really wasn't boasting. He said he could get Ace and the others to join the Marines, and he really made them join the Marines.
He had tried so many times before, but Ace always ignored him.
Indeed, professional enough!
But, where did this kid get so many Berries? Should I get him to share some with me too?
