Chapter 34 Choice

Recruit Camp building, inside Zephyr office.

With a cigar in one hand, Zephyr sat in his seat and asked, “Have you chosen? What do you want to learn…”

Rowen sat on the sofa opposite to him.

Today is the third day after the end of the year-end test. For these three days, Rowen has been racking his brains on a question. The source is a piece of information he is holding, a rough introduction about Rokushiki.

The first place in the Recruit Camp year-end test can be said to be a big deal for the Marines, so even if Rowen hasn’t built a reputation outside the Headquarters, he is still qualified to learn the legendary ultimate techniques of Marines, Rokushiki!

Rokushiki is a set of Martial Arts that Marine has developed for over a hundred of years and they have trained in them for even longer. These techniques are the foundation of Marine’s fighting power and it is also something that gives them an edge over the general Pirates!

The name is “Rokushiki”, which means there are Six Techniques.

The first three moves are Defensive or movement techniques.

The first move, it is a defensive skill that accelerates blood muscle movement and makes the body as hard as steel, it is called Tekkai (Iron Body);

The second move is called Soru, in this Technique, the person has to step on the ground ten times in an instant which will allow them to moves quickly with explosive force;

The third move unloads the whole body strength to dodge an opponent’s attack, it is called Kami-e (Paper Drawing) that uses the airflow changes caused by some actions to dodge incoming attacks.

The last three moves are derived and continue to strengthen the control of body stamina based on the first three moves.

They are Geppō (Moonwalk), by which one can moves in the air through the explosive reaction force obtained by instant stepping;

Shigan, which uses Tekkai (Iron Body) as a continuation, it condenses the power of the whole body on the fingers and emits a blow between the hardened finger flashes.

Rankyaku (Tempest Kick), which uses Kami-e (Paper Drawing) to perceive changes in airflow and slashes through the vacuum created by ultra-high-speed kicks.

It seems that there are only six moves, but everyone can derive their own unique moves from the basic moves!

Just like the ‘Shigan (Finger Gun)-Connected Stars’ used by Shuzo where dozens of Shigan (Finger Gun) attacks broke out in one second, and the destructive power behind them was amazing!

And after integrating all the Six Techniques, one can even develop the ultimate technique ‘Life Return (Seimei Kikan)’

In addition to perfect control of every trace of power in the body, one can even use their hair as a killing tool when necessary. In addition, this is an augmentation skill that is strong when the person using it is strong!

After learning and mastering Life Return (Seimei Kikan), the user will no longer waste any effort to do useless work. Their move and their style will be as fine as a cat, one would be able to show the clear judgment of the current state of the body and prepare for the next move.

In this mysterious state, even if the user’s Doriki value has not changed, their actual combat effectiveness will be greatly enhanced!

Moreover, in addition to active use, the effect of Life Return (Seimei Kikan) is not hidden, and it always exists like a passive ability!

Most importantly, this effect is effective for anyone!

If Rob Lucci’s strength gain after learning Life Return (Seimei Kikan) is 1.0, then it is better than Garp’s. After learning Life Return (Seimei Kikan), his gain is still 1.0!

But one-tenth of 100 and one-tenth of 10,000 cannot be confused!

Therefore, Marine Rokushiki is something that he must learn as his foundation!

Only……

“It’s so hard to choose!”

Rowen rubbed his temples with a headache, and sighed, “Why should I choose?”

As a recruit, all Rokushiki techniques are given to Rowen, not to mention compliance or non-compliance. A single problem of proficiency is inevitable. Therefore, the first place in the year-end test has the right to learn Rokushiki but he could only choose two methods.

For these two techniques, Zephyr, who was originally the Main Instructor, specified the difference based on the physical differences of his disciples. However, Rowen is different from the rest.

He has a very comprehensive ability and his comprehensive ability is enough that there is no weak point. Zephyr is not sure, so he gave Rowen the choices.

Hearing Rowen’s complaint at this moment, Zephyr snorted and spoke: “Others are not even qualified to choose. Don’t complain! Make a decision quickly. According to the rules, after today, you will automatically give up Rokushiki Training!”

Zephyr was naturally scaring Rowen, he is Rowen’s teacher and he would not take away his disciple things.

But Rowen didn’t know that and he automatically regarded it as a threat as soon as he heard it. He scanned the information anxiously, and then took a deep breath before speaking: “I have decided! I choose Soru and Tekkai (Iron Body)!”

Zephyr chuckled secretly but he continued to show seriousness on his face, he shook his cigar, and asked nicely, “But why choose Soru and Tekkai (Iron Body), tell me your reason?”

“First of all, these two techniques are the foundation for something that I would learn later. I won’t mention it for now. Learning the basics first will make subsequent learning easier…”

“In addition, Soru requires the user to step on the ground ten times in an instant (0.36 seconds) in order to explode enough reaction force to move quickly. And the difference between the best and the ordinary user of Soru, except for the coordination of the body itself, the final difference is just the speed of stepping on the ground!”

Rowen said while raising his arm.

Zī Zī Zī Zī Zī Zī Zī!

Shoo!

At that instant, Rowen punched three times in an instant and Thunderlight moved with his fist, leaving a clear blue afterimage.

“Speed, as a Rumble-Rumble Fruit Ability User, I am inherently invincible in that aspect!”

“Not bad!”

Zephyr’s eyes lit up as he hadn’t noticed this.

He is also more enamored with Soru in his heart. In addition to basic aspects, it is also because Soru is more labor-saving when moving in short distances. If combined with the peculiarities of Thunder-Lighting Human physics to accelerate the pedaling on the ground, then one can even be faster and more practical!

The main reason for that is Rowen is still very weak, his Thunderlight speed is not slow at all, and it can compete with Glint-Glint Fruit. But at that speed, Rowen wouldn’t be able to react at all before he Awakens his Observation Haki, and it would be difficult for him to use in actual combat!

For example… Rowen would need to slow down to determine the location of his opponent and his speed would be deducted.

Seeing his disciple being so keen, Zephyr nodded in satisfaction and continued to ask: “What about Tekkai (Iron Body)?”

“Humm…”

Rowen blinked, his facial muscles twisted and he winked at Zephyr: “If I say I was afraid of death, would you believe the teacher?”

Zephyr: “…”

Three seconds later.

Bang!!

Watching Rowen fly over a hundred meters and fall to the ground, Zephyr greeted the soldiers who came by, “Arrange for someone to come and repair the windows tomorrow, understand?”

Looking at the tattered window sill, the corners of the soldiers’ mouths twitched without squinting.

“Uh… yes!”

Waiting for the soldiers to leave, Zephyr threw the broken cigar into the ashtray before he looked out the window and suddenly laughed.

“What a good boy!”

Fear death?

Indeed.

If you want to grow stronger, not fearing death is the basics, but you have to fear death if you want to live long enough to become strong!

Rowen has his terrible self-healing ability, and ordinary injuries would do nothing to him! The kind of ability that synchronized with the ability to grow stronger gave Zephyr a seed, it gave him a soldier that would be able to fight against Kaido when he became an Admiral.

But even so, it cannot be taken lightly!

After learning Tekkai (Iron Body), the damage done to Rowen’s body will be greatly reduced. Coupled with his terrifying self-healing ability, maybe the future Marine Force will also have the strongest creature like Kaido!

But well…

This is not the reason why you are afraid of death!!!
