Chapter 13
The fourth day of the training camp, training ground.
"System, view accumulated slacking time!"
"【Training Camp Turmoil】: Accumulated slacking time is 35/400 hours, please keep up the good work, host!"
The training camp is from 6 am to 9 pm every day, with 12 hours of training time, and the meal and rest time adds up to only three hours.
And the slacking time required by the daily task is only 8 hours, which also led to Karl, who skipped class for three days, over-completing the task.
Now his system space has a total of 6 Designated Attribute Enhancement Cards, as well as a pile of snacks and drinks, which can be said to be lying down and earning, but it's a pity that as his body shape and age return to normal, Karl's good days are officially declared over.
Karl returned to the training ground unwillingly, following the main force to do basic training, saying that he would start practicing the Navy Six Styles today.
Zephyr stood in front with a glowing face, his physical condition was much better than the first day, which Zephyr himself felt deeply.
Since being healed by Karl's Holy Light, his chronic asthma had actually recovered! These days, not only is his breathing smooth, but he doesn't even pant when running, just like he had never had asthma.
Without the trouble of asthma, his strength gradually recovered. Although he couldn't compare with that old monster Garp, he was much stronger than he used to be.
"Today, I will personally teach you the cultivation methods and application techniques of the Navy Six Styles - Iron Body. No matter if you have learned it before, listen to me carefully. Once someone is distracted, all of you will be punished!"
Iron Body? A trace of strangeness flashed across Karl's face. The only Six Styles techniques he knew were Shave and Paper Art.
One for pursuit (escape) and one for life-saving (dodging bullets).
He didn't know anything else. It's not that he didn't want to learn, but his physical fitness was too bad before. Even if he knew the techniques, he couldn't use them due to his physique. Now it's a good opportunity to learn.
Anyway, it's 12 hours a day! Not afraid of being unable to complete the daily slacking task.
"Iron Body, the only defensive technique in the Six Styles. The principle is to accelerate blood flow, make muscle movement faster, thereby making muscles obtain the hardness like steel. The disadvantage is that you cannot move freely when using Iron Body."
"So, we must choose the right time when using Iron Body, don't be self-righteous, no matter what attack the enemy uses, use Iron Body to defend."
"Okay, next I will explain in detail how to cultivate Iron Body......"
One hour later.
"Ding, detected this world's combat technique - Navy Six Styles, has been included in the system and added to random rewards, probability +50% during the Training Camp Turmoil task."
Karl suddenly let out a sigh of relief. Tell me earlier! It made him listen so carefully, wasting an hour of slacking time in vain.
"Okay, I have told you all the cultivation techniques of Iron Body, who else doesn't understand?"
The recruits sitting there shook their heads in unison. The techniques of Iron Body are not difficult, and they can be easily mastered if the control ability of the body reaches the standard. And even if there are really those who don't understand, they won't be the bird that sticks out. At worst, ask others! It's not miserable.
"Very good, since you all understand, then let's start practicing! I only give you three days. If there is anyone who still can't master Iron Body, humph humph!"
So, the following training ground seemed to become a shit-holding meeting, one by one with furrowed brows, full red faces, expressions of wanting to pull but not being able to pull out, Karl was also like this.
Fortunately, the ten-year veteran Karl had already mastered the techniques of Paper Art, and his control over his body was far beyond other recruits. After practicing the methods taught by Zephyr several times, he easily mastered Iron Body.
Don't say, after using Iron Body, Karl suddenly felt his self-confidence rising. With his steel bones, no one is easy to deal with!
It's a pity that it doesn't have much effect on that place. It is estimated that only Armament Haki can enchant it.
"Eh! This kid... learns too fast!" Zephyr, who had been paying attention to Karl, eyes lit up. That familiar luster, he felt it was Iron Body for sure. After a little thought, he called Karl over.
"Karl, have you learned the Navy Six Styles before?"
"Yes, Instructor Zephyr, Brigadier General Charles taught me, but before I could only use Shave and Paper Art, and I just mastered Iron Body."
"Charles~"
A youthful face appeared in Zephyr's mind, it was Charles when he was young. The reason he remembered it so clearly was because Charles was his first batch of students.
It's just that his talent was not good. After more than 20 years, he was only a branch Brigadier General, which was more than enough to guard the branch.
"That's not bad either. Your talent is indeed better than that kid Charles. Remember not to be proud and complacent, continue to practice!"
Karl naturally agreed with his mouth full. Practice? Doesn't exist! Slacking time is about to begin!
But before that, he had to find a unlucky guy to help him test the effect of 【Weak and Fragile】.
Hmm, scanning around, Karl locked his eyes on a guy who looked strange. It's decided to be you, Binz!
Don't look at this guy with thin arms and thin legs, he is a Growth-Growth Fruit user, and he scored 451 points in the Doriki test, winning second place.
Overall, he is already the strongest recruit besides Karl, which shows how withered Navy talents are now.
"Your name is Binz, right? Can you trouble you to help me test the defensive effect of my Iron Body?"
Looking at Karl with a grinning face, Binz subconsciously frowned. Among all the recruits, the one he couldn't stand the most was Karl. Why doesn't he need to work as hard as they do to train, and can still get the favor of Instructor Zephyr? Just because he is some kind of Devil Fruit user?
Although he didn't see it very clearly on the first day, most recruits could roughly guess that Karl is a Devil Fruit user.
Otherwise, normal people can't release golden light balls, but they don't know what Karl's ability is. Even if they want to ask, they can't see this guy's shadow.
So facing Karl's request, he subconsciously wanted to refuse, but then thought, testing the defensive effect of Iron Body, isn't it just being beaten? That is to say, Karl took the initiative to find a beating? Is there such a good thing?
"Great! No, I mean, I'm very willing to help!"
Binz changed his words very quickly, but Karl still heard the clues. Combined with the envious eyes of others, it is not difficult for Karl to draw a conclusion that his popularity is not very good, but Karl doesn't care. Putting himself in his shoes, he can't stand himself either.
They are all recruits, why do others work hard to exercise their physique, while he enjoys happiness at home? If someone appreciates him because of this, it's strange!
Karl tore off his top, revealing his sturdy upper body, signaling that Binz could attack at any time, and then muttered in his heart, system, use Weak and Fragile.
"Weak and Fragile used successfully, Defense -100%, Injury/Sickness Probability +1000% and obtain Serious Injury Exemption, lasting three minutes."
"Six Styles·Iron Body!"
Binz, come directly~!
