Pirates: It's not a mythical beast, it's a phantom god

"It's simple. Your power generation technique is exactly the same as that of the fishman who replaced Uncle Burfat~"

"Ah."

Jinbei nodded. The training he was conducting now was completely in accordance with the key points taught by the previous fish.

“But this is not right~”

As he said that, Ossi tore off the packaging and poured out all the remaining pocky in the carton in his hand...but those slender chocolate bars miraculously did not fall to the ground, but floated in the air.

Ah~

Ignoring Jinbe's surprised look, Osi first picked up one and put it in his mouth, then lightly tapped his fingers to pull the randomly floating pocky to the appropriate position.

A dozen chocolate bars were arranged and combined to form two slightly complex stickman shapes.

"Look, this is the skeleton proportion of the fishman who is teaching you fishman karate now."

Ossi pointed at one of the slender stick figures, then moved his finger to the more symmetrical one next to him and said:

"And it's the proportions of your skeleton."

Click~

Ossi bit the pocky in his mouth into two pieces, and used the outer stick-shaped biscuit as a pointer to point out the details on the two stick figures.

"Did you notice? There are quite a few differences in your body proportions."

"Because you murlocs are different species, your body shapes vary greatly, so the key points he taught, like 'fists should be placed in such and such position, legs should be aligned with such and such,' don't actually apply to all of you."

It's okay for someone like Jinbei Arlong to have two arms and two legs... But if he has three arms on each side like Xiaoba, some movements of his arms will be completely impossible to achieve.

"You were just practicing straight punches, so your power-generating posture should be able to release your full strength. However, the posture you just imitated him only allowed you to exert 80% of your strength."

"The Fishman substitute teacher only taught his karate, not Fishman karate."

"Ah."

Jinbei nodded in agreement. Being a gifted man, he had actually vaguely noticed this problem.

But unfortunately, substitute teacher Yu Ren took time out of his busy schedule to teach them, and he really didn't want to trouble him again.

It is actually very simple to get started with the art of Yuren Karate. All you have to do is roughly copy the fixed movements taught by the instructor, or even practice on your own with an instruction book. Combined with the Yuren's naturally strong wrist strength, you can exert considerable power.

But if one wants to master it or even reach the level of being able to use the secret technique, one must undergo specialized and rigorous training.

It would be best to have a murloc karate master who can use secret techniques to provide one-on-one guidance, and constantly correct the force techniques according to the different body proportions of each murloc.

Otherwise, you can only rely on your own talent to explore bit by bit.

For example, Osi, although she has never studied Murloc Karate seriously, she can master those techniques at a glance, and even apply them to other situations, using those secret techniques as normal attacks.

……

Snapped!

After a crisp snap of fingers, the two "stickmen" were broken up again, but the pocky did not return to the box in Ossi's hand. Instead, they dispersed and floated around Jinbei.

Jinbei was a little confused as he saw a pocky stuck on every joint of his arms, shoulders, torso, and legs.

"Enemy controller."

As Ossi opened her fingers, using the chocolate bars as a medium, strands of fine golden electric current were transmitted from her fingers to Jinbei's joints.

Then Jinbei found that his body was moving subconsciously, and he was so scared that he quickly tensed up.

"Don't resist, just relax."

Osi's "Enemy Controller" was a trick she came up with when she was bored watching frogs fighting. The principle is similar to Pain's black stick.

In theory, this move should be best performed by directly inserting a highly conductive material into the opponent's body, thereby interfering with electrical signals to achieve strong control over the opponent's body.

But this is just a teaching session after all, so there is no need to make it so bloody, so Osi simply used a chocolate bar instead.

Although it is far behind in terms of strong control, there will be no problem as long as the opponent does not resist.

"Come, I will now walk you through all the basic moves of Fishman Karate."

"This is the standard movement that best suits your body. Xiaopang, you must remember it well."

"..."

"Yes."

This was already teaching at the level of chasing after someone to feed them. For Jinbei, who was used to having one meal hungry, he really couldn't imagine how he could repay this kindness.

……

After leading Jinbe through the basic moves from beginning to end ten times, Osi withdrew the substitute system after making sure that the opponent had fully adapted to the new techniques.

"Okay, once you've mastered this set of movements, we'll move on to the next step of advanced instruction."

"I'll be stricter then—"

"Bulu Bulu~Bulu~"

The sound of Den Den Mushi suddenly interrupted Ossi's after-school lecture.

"Hey, who is——"

"Ossie! Come here!"

"Mr. Kaido is dying!"

"..."

"?"

"Ah?!"*2

Chapter 271: Saving 'Big Ice' Kaido

Time goes back to when Kaido fell to the ground after drinking...

As the situation was caught off guard by this sudden incident, the scene showed signs of being out of control for a while.

After all, according to the pirate whose entire arm was severely frostbitten, Kaido is no longer breathing.

A man as strong as a monster, who had been captured and executed dozens of times by the navy without a scratch, and whose body had been forged into an indestructible state through countless battles, actually collapsed to the ground and stopped breathing after taking a sip of wine...

This made everyone wonder if there was some devil fruit mixed into the wine.

But fortunately, when a certain name was called out by Jin, the pirates present suddenly quieted down as if they had swallowed a reassurance pill.

After the great battle a few months ago, the name Ra has taken on a special magic in the Beasts Pirates.

She is not a captain, but sometimes she is better than a captain.

Like a magical spell, no matter what happens, just shouting out this name will solve it.

Even now the real captain is suspected to be dead.

[La, this name seems...]

Hua Zha, who witnessed all this, became more and more curious about the man named La.

The last time he came here, he heard Kaido and the little red-haired girl mention this name. It seemed that she was her sister...

But how to say it, Kaido's attitude towards the man named Ra was very strange, so strange that Hanazawa couldn't find a suitable adjective to describe it for a while.

"Blu~Blu~"

The sound of Den Den Mushi rang out, and Hanazawa's attention was drawn to it.

"Hello, this is La."

The Den Den Mushi was picked up and began to imitate. As expected, it was a girl's voice... The girl's voice was very nice, or rather, a little too nice.

[Just like the legendary Siren...]

[What kind of person is the other party?]

The restlessness in Huazha's heart was also soothed by this magical voice, and he even began to inappropriately imagine the other person's appearance... But his wild thoughts were quickly interrupted by Wright's anxious voice.

"Miss La, something bad has happened to Governor Kaido!"

Hearing that it was indeed the voice of La from the other side, Wright quickly told them the current situation.

"go on."

The voice on the other end remained calm, not at all affected by Wright's urgency.

"Governor Kaido just drank the barrel of Snow Wolf wine you brewed."

"Oh."

"You mean the barrel of failure?"

"Did you take it out accidentally?"

The tone was still calm, as if hearing a boring joke.

The barrel of Snow Wolf Wine with a golden wolf head logo was a test product of the formula improvement at that time in order to increase production.

But it turned out that they used too much strength and the brewed product was totally unsuitable for ordinary people to drink.

The roller coaster-like feeling of life and death is too exciting. People with weak constitutions may even die on the spot after drinking it...

Later, it was accidentally discovered that the evaporated wine could help improve the quality of other ordinary Snow Wolf wines. In addition, La had lost interest in continuing to improve the formula, so he locked it in a corner of the wine cellar.

But this time, because the wine cellar had been filled with a lot of new wines as compensation from the World Government, the space inside was completely occupied and messed up, so when moving, I accidentally took the wrong one...

"Don't worry, Captain Kaido won't die. At most he will be unconscious for a while."

He opened his mouth and comforted her.

"But, but the Governor is no longer breathing..."

"Huh? Normally, there wouldn't be such a strong reaction if it was just one bite."

After all, a normal person wouldn't drink a second sip of this stuff in a short period of time. With just one sip, Kaido's physique would at most cause him to lose consciousness for a while like Hanazawa.

"Uh...Captain Kaido drank more this time, um..."

Wright found it difficult to describe Kaido's drinking posture at that time. In any case, most people would probably not hold the bucket and pour it directly into their throats like that.

"How much did he drink?"

La asked bluntly.

“…half a bucket.”

"..."

"Miss La?"

The silence from the other side made Wright begin to feel uneasy.

After a long time, La finally spoke:

"Just leave it there and don't worry about it."

"Eh?"

"Does this mean that Governor Kaido will wake up on his own?"

Wright and everyone else breathed a sigh of relief.

"No, it means you should be careful and don't get frostbitten from that thing."
