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

"Woo-ha-ha-ha~ Kid, let me see your limit!" Kaido laughed heartily.

The mace and obelisk were swung faster and faster, with each blow coming with greater force.

The two men seemed to be wielding their weapons without limit, venting their respective dominance. Every strike of the obelisk was like a flash of lightning, and every strike of the mace seemed to split mountains and crack rocks.

However, despite the increasingly fierce confrontation, the two tacitly refrained from using their abilities, relying solely on their domineering attacks from beginning to end.

"Drink!"

Kaido leaped and slammed heavily onto Ra's obelisk, causing the entire area of ​​more than ten meters opposite her feet to cave in.

But before he could exert any more force, La turned his wrist to remove the mace and at the same time aimed it at his face at an incredible angle.

Kaido raised his head in a hurry, and almost had one side of his beard cut off.

"Haha! You little brat, you're really getting more and more used to fighting."

"Because fighting skills are not difficult to learn."

"How arrogant! But you do have the capital. Go on, I'm just getting hot..."

"Mr. Kaido (Boss)!"

Before Kaido could finish, the voices of Jin and Burfat from afar interrupted this morning activity.

Kaido and Ra also stopped their actions at the same time.

Even after what seemed to be an extremely intense battle to outsiders, the two men's breathing remained calm. The endurance of their animal-type mythical beasts and divinely sculpted bodies was almost bottomless.

"It's you. What happened? Did the noise from our morning exercise wake you up?"

"I'm afraid it's not just us. The residents of the town and our crew members all thought it was an earthquake and everyone hid themselves." Burfat said helplessly.

To be honest, with Kaido and La's current strength, they should not do even morning exercises on the island that serves as their base.

"It really did have an impact. Captain Kaido, you can't do this again."

"Don't worry about that. By the way, your buns should be ready by now, right? Old Cook should be preparing breakfast by now. I'm just starving after some exercise!"

Kaido didn't care, put away his mace and walked towards the cafeteria.

"Twenty-five minutes and forty seconds, it should be just the right time to get there. I'll go wake up Osi, Oubei and the others." La calculated in his mind and immediately figured out the exact time.

…………

"Hmm! So fragrant and delicious! Sister La, when did you learn how to make dumplings?" Osi ate one at a time, his hands dancing like windmills.

"I just learned this morning. Drink some water, don't choke." La handed over a cup of tea.

"Osi, slow down! Look at the way you eat... leave some for me!" Oubei wanted to say a few words but after seeing Osi quickly finish a tray of buns, he quickly grabbed the food.

"Well, it's too small, I can't taste it!"

Burfat simply picked one up with two fingers and threw it into his mouth, smacking it twice.

Kaido on the side directly picked up a tray and poured it all into his mouth. This amount was "really" not enough for him to fill his teeth.

"Not bad, but the quantity is too small."

Jhin didn't move, as if he didn't want to take off the airtight mask.

"After all, I packed it according to our standards. Next time, I'll try to pack it a little bigger... Jin, don't you want to eat it?"

"I do not need."

"Jin is not used to eating in front of others," Kaido explained.

"I know, I know! It's one of those settings where you can't take off your mask in front of others, right? Usually, this kind of situation means you either have a past that no one knows about, or... Ugh, Ugh!"

Ou Bei directly picked up a bun and blocked Osi's mouth.

"Just eat. Why are you writing a novel here?"

ember:……

"Skipping breakfast is not good for your health. If you are not used to showing your face in public, you can pack some food to take home." La said from the side.

"Don't worry, Jhin is not a child who needs to be fed. But you, little kid, are young, but your personality is like that of an old woman." Burfat sighed.

"Yes, yes, yes. I always feel that Sister La is like my mother. She won't allow this or that." Osi agreed.

"I agree." It was rare for Obei to agree with Osi.

pull:……

To be honest, I feel like a retired old man with nothing to do. I always want to find something to do, such as cooking, feeding cats and dogs, etc.

While a few people were chatting, the official breakfast in the cafeteria was served.

But surprisingly, the bowl no longer contained the same old grilled steak, but a rather light vegetable porridge.

Seeing everyone's puzzled expressions, the pirate who brought the dishes carefully explained, "Boss Kaido, there was an earthquake this morning. All the vegetable vendors ran for shelter, so we can only make do with what's left over from yesterday."

After hearing the other party's explanation, Layou turned his head to look at Kaido, and found that the other party seemed to have not heard it, and drank the bowl of porridge in one mouthful, not afraid of the heat at all.

"It's still not satisfying without meat! By the way, how are you two little brats training your Haki?"

After drinking ten bowls in a row, Kaido took a short break and thought about what he had told Jin and Burfat yesterday.

"I, I! I have completely mastered that Observation Haki!" Without waiting for others to speak, Osi raised his hand proudly first.

Ou Bei, with his head bowed, sipped the porridge in front of him without saying a word. It seemed he hadn't found the trick yet.

"The red-haired kid is very talented, and his observation Haki can barely adapt to the needs of combat. But the blue-haired kid has not made much progress." Jin showed no mercy and directly stated the situation of the two.

Ouba lowered her head even lower. To her, who was always proud, what Jhin said was tantamount to a public execution.

"Huh? Haven't you found the reason?" Kaido didn't think that Ouba didn't have talent in this area.

"Maybe this method is not suitable for Oubei. I will be responsible for the subsequent teaching." La gently stroked Oubei who lowered his head.

"Okay. But you have to hurry. The sea is not calm recently. By then, the two of them must at least be able to protect themselves." Kaido reminded.

"understood."

La nodded, and then asked something that concerned her: "By the way, Captain Kaido, I saw a kind of bird delivering newspapers in the town. Is that a feature of this island?"

"Don't you even know what a newspaper gull is?" Burfat was a little surprised.

"That's the World Economic News Agency's exclusive newspaper delivery method. Using these newspaper gulls, they can deliver the latest news to any corner of the ocean in the shortest possible time. That's why they're such a dominant force in the news industry."

"If we use birds to deliver newspapers, aren't we afraid that they will be shot down and eaten by people?" This was the first thing Ossi thought of.

“Very few people would do that unless they were starving.”

"Because if you attack one gull, all the other gulls won't deliver news to you anymore. Losing contact with the outside world at sea is extremely dangerous, so it's not worth it for such a small amount of meat."

"Oh~~ I see. I thought the meat wasn't tasty."

"Captain Kaido, could you please give me a copy of the newspapers from previous years? I want to know what happened in the past few years. It would be even better if I could find a literate translator." La started looking for something to do again.

"Let's go directly to Cook. That guy can read and buys almost every issue of the newspaper." Kaido thought of the experienced old chef Cook.

"Yeah, okay." La nodded, thinking that it would be a good opportunity to learn cooking from Cook.

As the sun rose to noon, the pirates began to get up one after another, and the cafeteria gradually became lively.

"Osi, Obei, you can rest for a while after eating. I will meet you in an hour at the place where you trained yesterday."

"Okay, Sister La (Big Sister)"

"Jin, Burfat, since these two brats don't need to be taught anymore, it's a good opportunity for them to go out with me."

"Okay, Mr. Kaido (Boss)"

……

PS: When Jhin eats, he first turns his mouth into a pterosaur and then eats with his beak, so he doesn't have to take off his mask.

This incident was also recorded in SBS~

Chapter 32 The Three Painted Sisters (Part 1)

An hour later, in the clearing—

"Oh my god! What happened here? It looks like it was plowed by a missile?" Osi took a breath as he looked at the training ground that had been completely changed.

Ou Bei squatted down, picked up a handful of crystallized soil debris, twisted it in his hands, and speculated, "Someone must have fought here. The noise this morning must have come from here."

"Eh? Anything going on this morning?"

"You were sleeping like a dead pig, so of course you didn't know. This morning I thought it was an earthquake. I shook you for a long time but you didn't wake up."

"What happened next?"

"Then I felt the earthquake wasn't very strong, and my eldest sister didn't come to look for us, so I continued to sleep."

Well, the two sisters are equally matched.

"Clap clap~"

"Okay, enough small talk, let's officially get into training." The crisp sound of high fives interrupted the bickering between the two.

Seeing that both of them were looking at him, he said, "First, Ouba, I need you to master the Haki of Observation Haki first."

"But sister, I tried all day yesterday and I really have no idea." Ou Bei scratched his indigo hair in distress.

"If you and Ossi hadn't learned it, I would have thought there was some species restriction on this thing."

"Hey~ How can you compare with us? Sister La and I are both geniuses. We can learn it naturally."

"But don't lose heart. You little fool might get it done in a couple of days. After all, no matter how dumb you are, you are still my sister~" Osi crossed his arms and acted like a senior to comfort (?).

(#`dish)

Seeing the other party's arrogant look, Ou Bei was so angry that he gritted his teeth.

"The reason you can't learn is probably because your learning style is very different from Osiris's."

"Ossi's body learns first, and then the brain fills in the relevant knowledge and principles later... or it doesn't matter if it doesn't fill in the gaps. But your brain thinks and understands first, and then drives the body to learn."

"One of you is an instinctive person and the other is a theoretical person." La's voice is always like a clear spring, which can easily soothe the smoke of resentment.

"Think first, then master..." Ober murmured after calming down.

"Yes, one of the reasons why you haven't mastered Observation Haki is because you can't fully understand what Jin and the others mean by 'aura' and 'intuition'.

On the other hand, your own thinking and reaction abilities are too good."

"Ossie follows his instincts, and you have to overcome your instincts."

La could actually understand the feeling of being unable to break through the constraints of his own body due to his excellent body functions. After all, the various values ​​of this body were much higher than those of Obe and Osi.

However, unlike Oubre, La was able to overcome his body's instinctive inertia immediately after realizing this.

"So now I'm going to teach you in a more appropriate way. Close your eyes."

Ou Bei closed his eyes obediently, and immediately felt a warm touch on his forehead.

La gently pressed her forehead against Ouba's, and before he could say anything out of shyness, she whispered, "The earth, the ocean, the sun, the living things, everything around us contains energy.

Oubey, I will temporarily seal your five senses. You need to try to find a new way to observe the world from an energy perspective."

"A new approach, from the perspective of energy..."

As soon as he finished talking to himself, Ouba realized that he was gradually losing his perception of the world.

First it was vision, then hearing, then smell and touch... until the five senses of eyes, ears, nose, tongue and body were completely immersed in silent darkness.

"Use the same method you use to sense the divine power within your body to sense the energy of other objects in the outside world. They are very weak, so be careful."

The sound of pulling rang out in the darkness, very soft and gentle, as if encouraging a toddler to bravely prop himself up and stand up.

Guided by Ra's words and energy, Ober awkwardly mobilized his perception.

This mysterious feeling above the five senses became very difficult to control after leaving the body. The harder Oubey tried, the more he felt powerless.

This feeling of powerlessness continued until she was almost exhausted and about to give up, only then did she finally realize that the originally dark and silent world before her began to flicker with sporadic lights.

"Why is there... light? What on earth is going on?" Ou Bei couldn't help but ask.

"Energy radar." La used a metaphor that Oubey could easily understand.

boom!

It was as if the clouds in his mind had been cleared and the sun had come out. The dark cloud of doubt that had been lingering over Ou Bei's head was instantly blown away by these words.
