I'm at the top of One Piece

Xiong Bao moved closer to Messer and saw the view below as well. Even though it wasn't his first time here, his legs were still trembling. He glanced at Messer again and shouted out like Messer.

"Awooo!!!"

Letting out all the pent-up heroic spirit in his heart, Moses took a deep breath, feeling a slight warmth throughout his body, and a subtle sense of clarity emanating from within.

Her eyes were sparkling.

Feeling that magical clarity, Mercer followed his emotions, breathing and shouting! He shouted with all his might, and gradually, a tranquility from within appeared.

After a long while, Mercer stopped shouting, savoring the peculiar feeling that had suddenly appeared within him.

As you breathe, your body becomes more open and transparent, as if you have a deeper connection with the natural world around you, and even a sense of emotional closeness.

Mercer was baffled by these changes in his body, so he happily opened the system light screen.

[A+ Grade Blessing: Breathing] (Can grow freely)

[Blessing Effect: Qi flows throughout the body, achieving oneness with nature, greatly enhancing the application of one's physical body and the perception of all things in nature, granting a permanent and significantly accelerated growth of "Physical" and "Soul" attributes of A+ grade or lower.]

[Gift's Evaluation: Is this a breathing technique? No, this is the foundation of some kind of spiritual practice. At this moment, you have taken the most important step.]

Things have changed. The effect of [Breathing] has changed significantly, not just by advancing further within the A-level range. Messer understood this clearly:

“A-level blessing abilities have deeper applications. Although I achieved it in one step, some details were missing.”

After more than a year of adaptation and practice, coupled with today's profound emotional impact, I have finally demonstrated the true effects of "him" at this moment.

And to reach even greater heights.

Does this mean the unity of man and nature?

A state of mind or spiritual awareness.

It is also a foundation for taking extraordinary steps.

A satisfied smile appeared on Moses' lips.

And that's not all.

Chapter 11 Visiting Relatives!

"Domineering aura is the innate potential power of all living beings in this world, equivalent to [momentum] and [deterrence], existing like an instinct."

In Moses' view, "dominance" is simply a manifestation of the "essence, energy, and spirit" within the human body.

Through long-term breathing exercises and medical studies, Mercer's understanding of his own body far surpasses that of ordinary people.

Observation Haki is a unique power of perception, a kind of "divine" perception.

Moses is a natural Awakener of Observation Haki.

Unlike other naturally born individuals with awakened Observation Haki, who possess special abilities such as "reading minds," "emotional resonance," "predicting images," and "listening to the voice of all things," this is different.

Moses' Observation Haki only has the most basic sensory effects.

However, through his unique breathing technique over the years, Moses's Observation Haki has been gradually changing as it has been constantly coordinated and intertwined with his breathing.

Be aware of your own breathing, and then use that breathing to perceive your body in all directions.

When the gift of [Breathing] manifests and reaches A-rank in one step, with Qi flowing throughout the body, Moses' Observation Haki suddenly acquires a unique "inner vision" effect.

It can sense and penetrate through its own skin, flesh, bones, and internal organs. At first, Mercer often felt a sense of nausea that was difficult to get used to.

But over the past year, since there's no way to change it, the only option is to adapt. In any case, I can't give up using Observation Haki just because of some minor discomfort.

Observation Haki is designed for external perception, so naturally, this external "internal vision" becomes a kind of "clairvoyance".

However, Messer's Observation Haki level is not high enough at the moment, so the external X-ray vision effect is not as clear as the internal X-ray vision.

and,

With the current enhancement of the [Breathing] blessing, the added effect of achieving oneness with nature has given Messer a premonition that, barring any unforeseen circumstances, his Observation Haki will likely develop special characteristics in the future.

Over time, with the accumulation of experience, Messer's Observation Haki has also improved considerably.

And now.

[C+ Rank Gift: Observation Haki] (Can be freely upgraded)

[Blessing Effect: An innate perceptive ability, the power of "perception," a strong ability to sense the surrounding atmosphere, granting the special effect of "sight," and permanently accelerating the growth of Perception/Agility/Mystic attributes to C+ quality or below.]

[Blessed Assessment: Among the three treasures of "Essence, Energy, and Spirit," this pertains to the power of "Spirit"—perception is the prerequisite for everything!]

Messer's Observation Haki has gone from C-rank to C+-rank, without any major breakthrough, and he doesn't think there's anything wrong with that.

because,

All of this is a closely interdependent relationship. Observation Haki can accelerate the growth of perception, agility, and mystery attributes, and conversely, these attributes also affect the growth of Observation Haki to some extent.

However, Moses's attributes haven't changed much; there have only been some minor alterations.

Attributes:

[Physical Fitness]: Strength: F+ → E- Endurance: F+ → E- Agility: F+ → E-

[Soul]: Willpower: F+→E- Perception: E-→E Spirit: F+→E-

[Special/Mysterious (Energy)]: F+ → E- (Observation Haki growth bonus in progress.)

In just over a year, his basic physical attributes improved from F+ to E-, which was neither fast nor slow. As he was in the growth phase, Messer did not undergo any particularly arduous training.

Every day, he simply followed the routine of long-distance running training, breathing awareness training, or occasionally hunting various wild animals in the wild.

Even so, in Messer's view, his current physical abilities are still stronger than Ace's when he was nine or ten years old in the original timeline.

Because of the E-rank, in the four major outer seas of the East, South, West, and North, those ordinary and common "powerful" pirates are at most at this level in terms of physique.

Clearing his mind of all distractions, Mercer turned off the light screen and gazed quietly at the magnificent natural beauty before him.

In Moses's perception, everything around him had changed, and the spiritual realization of the unity of man and nature endowed this natural beauty with a unique "spirituality".

"No, rather, it is only today, now, that I have truly seen the natural world clearly. Everything has come alive."

【breathe】

The breathing of earth and stone.

The breath of the pine tree.

The respiration of water vapor.

The breath of ice and snow.

Everything has its own unique breath and special life frequency.

Moses pouted:

"The breath of all things, the power of cutting or not cutting, in the end, it's nothing more than some insights into the unity of heaven and man."

"In fact, many complex and sophisticated things, once you understand them correctly, are really just that simple."

Having figured things out and gotten what he wanted, Moses had no intention of staying there any longer.

As for understanding nature?

joke.

"You can't get fat overnight. You have to eat slowly and walk steadily. Taking one step at a time is the safest way."

All lofty insights and powers are often built on the most basic attribute, namely the "body".

She reached out and ruffled Xiong Bao's ears, then lifted him by the back of his neck and turned him around, only to see him look up at her with a puzzled expression.

"Let's go home."

Bear Cub shook itself and ran happily toward the burrow, with Mercer following behind.

The stone slab was put back in its original position.

The broad summit fell silent again, with only rows of footprints confirming the presence of other creatures.

The way down the mountain is more difficult than the way up. Accompanied by the cold wind on the cliffs, halfway up the mountain, through the damp and cold clouds, we took one step at a time to reach the foot of the mountain.

Xiong Bao shook its fur vigorously to shake off the condensation on its body, while Mercer had already moved a safe distance and avoided getting wet.

As if sensing the dampness of its fur, Xiong Bao opened its lower mouth unusually wide and then bit its own head, like gnawing on bamboo. After a few bites, it completed its self-devouring, leaving only a ball of white fur behind. A few seconds later, the fur ball unfolded, and Xiong Bao's body became dry.

Mercer was not surprised, after all, he was the one who taught him. Once Xiong Bao was steady, Mercer rode on his back, and the swaying Xiong Bao walked home with his toes pointing inward.

……

Back home, I cleaned and butchered the roe deer I had captured on the way back.

Heat oil in a wok, add scallions, ginger, garlic, and various suitable herbs, stir-fry for a few minutes, then add salt, MSG, and other seasonings to enhance the flavor.
