Chapter 24 Comprehend the Domineering Color of Knowledge
The artillery assessment was over, and neither Wood nor Gion were dissatisfied with the "lower-middle" evaluation.
Harsh Gion also knows that it is really rare for the two of them to achieve such results with their level of prowess.
Especially the last shot, which was ten meters away from the marked point, was Wood's extraordinary performance.
Although the instructor in charge of grading shook his head and made up his mind to have the artillery unit blacklist the two in the future, the two were extremely excited at the moment.
Because these few shots fired in the assessment have been their best results so far...
Marineland, the forest behind the Naval Academy.
A young man wearing only a pair of shorts was currently in a swamp, dodging the collisions of several wild boars.
Since Wood defeated the leader of the wild boar group, this swamp has now become one of Wood's daily training grounds.
After the wild boar leader was completely subdued by him, he has now completely become his dog's leg... and his pig's leg.
When your feet step on the muddy ground, the mud-like terrain will produce a strong adsorption force on the entire sole of the foot, making it impossible for the body to move quickly.
Unlike humans, wild boars seem to have long been accustomed to such terrain, so their movements are as agile as ever.
"Hmph——————!"
Several wild boars grunted from their mouths and charged towards Wood from different directions. However, the strange thing was that not only the attacks from the front were avoided by Wood, but also the attacks from the blind corners of his sight.
Also avoided by Wood.
"Okay, that's it for today's training. Thank you very much for your help. I will get some vegetables from the canteen to reward you tomorrow."
Under the moonlight, the young man picked up the clothes hanging on the tree branch and announced that today's training was over.
The few wild boars that were chasing Wood before, after hearing Wood's words, stopped attacking as if they understood what Wood said, and made a grunting sound in response.
Another year has passed since Wood came to the Naval Academy for training.
During this year, Wood came back to the mountains for special training whenever he had time.
The "shaving" in the Sixth Form of the Navy was successfully learned half a year ago by Wood carrying a heavy load all day long to avoid the attack of the wild boar leader.
The practice just now on the muddy ground was to learn the "Moon Step" among the six postures.
The six naval styles are Shaver, Iron Block, Moon Step, Lan Kou, Paper Painting, and Finger Gun.
Among the six postures, three of them focus on leg strength training. If you master the "shaving" among them, it will be much easier to learn the "Moon Step" and "Lan Kou".
Letting wild boars attack you in the swamp is partly to allow yourself to adapt to the heavier pace as soon as possible, and partly also to practice the "paper painting" of the six postures at the same time.
Paper painting, as the name suggests, is to make your body as light as paper, making it more powerful to avoid various attacks.
At the beginning, Wood only let a wild boar attack him in the swamp. Even so, under the strong adsorption force of the swamp, Wood was still bruised and bruised every day.
However, as time goes by, Wood is gradually adapting to the heavier pace, and the number of wild boars attacking him is also increasing.
The devilish self-mutilation training also caused the surface of his body to be covered with numerous injuries, large and small. Some of them were from other beasts in the mountains and forests, but most of them were caused by the tusks of wild boars.
Of course, hard work always pays off. After a year of devilish training, Wood's current physique has become several times stronger than a year ago.
And in addition to mastering the "shaving" among the six postures, Wood has almost mastered the "moon step".
Moreover, in the face of the raids of wild boars in recent days, although he failed to master "Paper Painting", an unexpected combination of circumstances allowed him to awaken the "Haki of Wisdom and Color"!
At first, Wood felt strange about this kind of ability to sense danger and avoid it. However, after some thinking, he finally understood that he seemed to have understood the so-called "seeing, hearing and color domineering".
Wood was undoubtedly pleasantly surprised when he saw the appearance of domineering color, because unlike the "Six Navy Styles" that can be learned with hard work, domineering is not something that just anyone can possess.
Excluding the "Overlord Haki" that stands tall among the people, the other two types of Haki, "Seeing and Hearing Haki" and "Armed Haki" are not rare in the Grand Line, but they are definitely not popular.
Whether it is "Informed Haki" or "Armed Haki", just like Devil Fruit, it has multiple development directions.
Among them, take the "knowledge and color domineering" as an example. As far as Wood knows, there are four types.
The first type is Katakuri...that is, Katakuri's unique seeing and hearing color. After practicing to the extreme, he can even predict the future for a short period of time!
The second type is the range-wide domineering power of knowledge and knowledge. The representative figure is Elnilu of Sky Island, which is what they call the "Heart Network". Elnilu's power of knowledge and knowledge can even cover the entire island, which is comparable to radar.
The third type is extended knowledge and Haki, which has the function of detecting targets from a long distance. Its representatives are snipers such as Van Oka and Usopp.
The fourth kind of haqi of knowledge and knowledge is also quite special and can only be possessed by a few people, that is, listening to the voices of all things, represented by Roger the Pirate King.
Of course, the above four types of "knowledge color" are all advanced versions. Ordinary "knowledge color" haki can only sense danger and prompt the body to react.
Wood has just awakened to the domineering nature of the world, and he doesn't know if his body color tends to be of the above type, or whether he even has the chance to become one of them.
However, awakening the Haki of knowledge and knowledge is undoubtedly an unexpected gain for him. For a swordsman, the effect of Haki of knowledge and knowledge is even much stronger than that of armed Haki.
"The swordsmanship at the level of a 'Swordsman', coupled with the Six Styles of Razor and Moon Step, and the awakened Haki of Knowledge.
With my current strength, it should be more than enough to become a colonel in a naval branch."
One year has passed, and the basic courses of the naval school have also ended. Under normal circumstances, after completing these basic courses, ordinary recruits can be officially incorporated into the navy and become a qualified part-timer.
Among these recruits, some who have extremely good grades and are outstanding in a certain aspect will continue to be retained in the naval academy for advanced training.
These elites who are left behind will enter more rigorous training and learn abilities such as the "Six Forms".
Because they were not trained as cannon fodder in the navy, but as junior petty officers of the navy.
