My Code Name is Ryokugyu - Chapter 12
Chapter 12 The Combination of Fruit and Haki
Early the next morning, Jon and the others were woken up. After getting dressed, they started training under Zephyr’s order.
For several days, Zephyr took them all and carried out various trainings. Every day they were drilled to exhaustion before letting them return to the dormitory.
In the past few days, Zephyr didn’t teach them anything, just the simplest training, repeated training, every time the majority of people can not stand up after training, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the training of the devil.
Under such simple, but high-intensity training, the performance gap between each person is getting bigger and bigger. Among them, the most notable ones are Sakazuki and Borsalino.
No matter how long they practiced, the two of them were not affected at all and kept in perfect condition. The others, except for the hidden Dragon, were extremely tired, and Jon was even more so tired to the collapse every day.
Originally, Jon wanted to study his devil fruit ability, but these days there was no free time. He had been training all the time, except for training, which was eating, and finally sleeping. There was no room left to develop fruit ability.
As far as the fatigue of training is concerned, Jon can also bear it, but what he cannot bear is Borsalino.
This guy is like a gooey candy. He comes to their dormitory to chat every day. The three of them are relaxed, but it make Jon hard enough to talk to them every time.
However, Jon was not without gain. In the chat with the three of them, Jon was also inspired a lot.
Borsalino and Sakazuki are indeed monsters, but their training skills still have merit, but Jon can only learn a small part for the time being, after all, his physique is far inferior to these two.
On the contrary, Dragon gave him more help, such as how to train with less effort, how to fix it after getting tired, and even the skills of how to exert strength were handed over to Jon without reservation.
I have to say that in this respect, Dragon is really much better than him, and Jon has gained insight. His previous exercises are far worse than what Dragon said. This is knowledge. And the gap in experience.
A few days passed, and finally the time for redistribution was reached. Zephyr was very simple and directly announced the list of students who would be taught by him.
There are a total of forty people, and Jon and the four are naturally on the list.
Those who are elected are naturally very happy, while those who lose are very disappointed.
The students of the Admiral of the Navy not only mean that they can get the best education, it is also equivalent to an extra qualification. After graduation in the future, Zephyr disciples are destined to be very popular.
Jon was naturally very happy that he was selected. Although he was certain, he was not as confident as Sakazuki.
He has observed that many of the students in the same period as him are physically stronger than him, and he has been under great pressure these days.
Fortunately, he was selected in the end, which means that he took the perfect first step in the navy headquarters.
After the students were identified, Zephyr brought Jon and his group to the classroom the next day and started class.
“From today, I will be your instructor, and I will teach you all over the next year.”
Zephyr stood at the lecture table and looked at the young faces in the classroom. He was also quite satisfied. Now he does not need to go to the front line to fight, staying in the rear and teaching the young people in the navy is also of great significance.
“As a senior and a teacher, the first lesson I want to give you is to tell you the cruelty of this world.”
“We are the navy, and the duty of the navy is to protect the sea and the people, so we have to fight evil. Pirates, criminals, bandits, etc. are all enemies of our navy;
In the battle with the enemy, with blood and death, everyone is likely to die, including the Admiral. Therefore, the world is cruel. Only by mastering power can we better protect the people and maintain the peace of the sea.”
“Strength is not only manifested as personal combat effectiveness, but various abilities including personal combat effectiveness. An excellent soldier must not only have sufficient combat effectiveness, but also have a wealth of knowledge, excellent command capabilities, and an ability to judge the situation. As the best soldiers in this session of the Navy, this is what you have to learn.”
Zephyr is an actionist, after a short speech, he immediately started the class mode.
They are all selected elites, and everyone listens carefully to Zephyr’s mission.
Zephyr didn’t teach some obscure knowledge as soon as he came up, but started from the most basic, and it was all theories.
In the next few days, Jon and the others had never been to the training ground, and they had been taking classes indoors, ranging from ideological education classes to maritime combat knowledge to navigational knowledge and so on.
As a naval admiral, Zephyr is not only strong in combat, but also very good in other aspects. After a few days, the course has not been repeated.
Jon went to class during the day and spent the rest of the time studying the fruit ability.
After the inadvertent reminder from Dragon last time, Jon paid more attention to the development direction of his fruit, and did experiments, and finally got a lot of gains.
I specifically found some plants, and after my physical strength was exhausted, I found that I could indeed absorb the life energy of plants and transform it into my physical strength, and even repair my injured body.
Not only that, but he also discovered that when he used his own Haki experience, he could really communicate with plants, understand their thoughts, and make plants understand what he meant.
This kind of ability is the ability that results from the combination of his fruit ability and Observation haki. It is not the ability to listen to the sounds of all things, because he can only hear the voices of plants, not the sounds of other creatures.
And after many research experiments, he also found a problem. Before he could use Observation Haki, he could absorb the life energy of plants, but it was far behind the communication, and the plants gave him more life energy.
This is a very strange principle. At the beginning, Jon didn’t understand what was going on, but after careful experimentation and guessing, he gradually understood it.
He found that under normal circumstances, although plants can make sounds, they have no wisdom, nor do they have the complicated thoughts of humans, as if they were single-celled organisms.
When Jon communicates with them with Observation Haki, and when he need them, they will be willing to give their energy to Jon, which is more than forcibly plundering and drawing.
Jon never expected that his own Observation Haki could still play such a role.
In fact, before, Jon was not very satisfied with his own Observation Haki, because his Observation Haki was born, but he didn’t have any special abilities, just like the ordinary Observation Haki.
Jon knows that there are some people like him who are born with Observation Haki, such as Princess Otohime, Bai Xing and so on.
These people who are born with Observation Haki as special abilities.
For example, Princess Otohime can feel the other party’s thinking and emotions, and convey the user’s own consciousness to others, affect their minds and thoughts and resonate strongly, and can even change the other party’s values and ideology.
And Jon hasn’t noticed the specialness of his Observation Haki yet. He can neither influence others nor change his mind like Princess Otohime, nor can he predict the future.
As for listening to the sound of all things, whether it is Observation Haki, or the innate talent, this point, there is no clear answer in the animation, and Jon does not know, at least he himself does not have this ability.
Until now, after eating the devil fruit, he established this special relationship with plants. It can be regarded as a simplified version of the ability to listen to everything, but he can only understand the sounds of plants.
In addition, he has not yet discovered the characteristics of his Observation Haki.
Although Jon also knows that Observation Haki can be strengthened by acquired training, but for more than ten years of exercise, he has not reached the realm of Katakuri, let alone known as the strongest, in addition to increased scope and more accurate perception. The degree of Princess Otohime who sees and hears.
Now his Observation Haki finally showed a huge effect, which made Jon very happy, the fruit ability plus Observation Haki, this may be his main direction of training in the future.
