Chapter 29: Unyielding
However, the current Arthur cannot be compared with those strong men in his mind.
Seeing that Arthur hadn't attacked for a long time, he took the initiative to rush to him and punched him: "It's getting late. Although you are very strong, you haven't broken the best persistence record in my hands yet!"
He did not use his full strength, but simply adjusted his strength according to Arthur's limit to prevent Arthur from getting hurt.
"This time, he definitely can't hold on and will fall asleep obediently." Zefa punched Arthur's subordinate, and he was sure in his heart that Arthur could no longer resist.
Seeing Ze's powerful fist approaching, Arthur suddenly raised his sword with both hands, his eyes flashing: "Dragon bomb!"
Only a loud bang was heard.
boom--!
The fist landed on Arthur and was suddenly bounced away by Arthur.
The sudden huge force shocked Zefa so much that he lost his balance.
"What...?" Zefa was shocked and thought, "He used his skills to dissipate a lot of the power of my fist in that instant?"
"Get going!" The ground of the playground where Arthur was located cracked due to his momentum, and he stabbed Zefa, who had lost his balance, with a knife.
All the elites watching the game stood in awe, not daring to imagine what was happening on the playground below.
The tip of the knife stabbed out swiftly, but Zephyr suddenly stepped on the air and dodged sideways, causing Arthur's stab to miss.
Arthur's eyes moved in his eye sockets, looking at Zefa in shock, thinking: "Six Styles: Razor can be used like this? I thought that move was a sure hit! Is this the general?"
“Cooper…” (How can there be such a powerful human being…) Cooper, who was lying on the playground, had never seen anyone who could avoid Arthur’s knife.
"What a joke... I thought I was strong." Arthur thought to himself, watching Zephyr dodge his attack and punch him again.
The force was twice as strong as before.
boom!
The explosive punch landed on Arthur's body, knocking him directly into the ground.
"It's over. I have to say... you are the third one who has survived my hands..." Zefa laughed, and saw Arthur standing up again covered in blood.
In less than two seconds, he stood up again.
Arthur tore off the bandages on his body, revealing his lean flesh and two scars from his time in Punk Hazard.
"I won't fall." Arthur's aura sank. He steadied his shaking body and wanted to continue confronting Zephyr.
"Aren't you afraid of death?" Zefa was moved by Arthur's perseverance and pointed at Cooper and asked, "You are just showing off if you continue like this. Look at your eagle. It has learned to surrender."
"If I fall, we will all die." Arthur Zefa said. Now he is no longer the naive time traveler in Rapeseed Village.
After going through two missions, I realized that every battle was like a risk on my life.
Besides, he seemed to have died once.
In order to push Arthur to his limits, Zephyr attacked him again.
Suddenly, Arthur found that he could feel Zefa's attack intention, and his body predicted it in advance and moved.
He adjusted his body slightly to dodge Zephyr's fist and slashed at his body.
Zefa's punch missed and he quickly dodged. The blade chopped down from his side and left a crack on the ground.
Zefa suddenly realized something was wrong and frowned slightly: "Is it a coincidence?"
"Haha, this is getting interesting." Arthur suddenly grinned and said, "I want to ask you something, instructor."
"I prefer people to call me Z, or Mr. Zefa." Zefa introduced himself to Arthur.
"Well, Mr. Zephyr." Arthur changed the topic: "Before I get knocked down by you, can you tell me whether Observation Haki can see some hidden and unmotivated creatures."
Zefa, who was using Observation Haki, was shocked. The feeling just now was not an illusion. Arthur did use Haki to dodge his punch.
He looked forward to Arthur even more and responded:
"No, Observation Haki can only predict people with murderous intent and hostility. If someone lurks beside you silently, it will be difficult for you to find him."
So that's how it is. Arthur finally understood the rules of Observation Haki and dispelled his doubts.
Observation Haki is not a radar.
"Show me your limits, Arthur."
This battle test lasted two and a half days...
In Marinford, on the playground of Zefa's training base.
Zefa looked at Arthur, whose muscles were about to explode, and couldn't believe that someone with such perseverance existed. It was unprecedented.
No matter how many times I was knocked down, I would get up again and face him.
"Hey, get me something to eat, Cooper." Arthur walked to Cooper and kicked him with his leg.
After receiving the order, Cooper immediately flew over the sea to find food for Arthur.
Arthur still held the knife and looked at Zephyr warily, but his eyes were dull and had lost their luster.
After Arthur experienced two actual combat growth experiences, his physical endurance and physical strength became stronger.
I can't believe that I can hold on for so long.
"You've adapted and grown like crazy in just one sparring battle. It's hard to imagine how much you'll grow in the next two months!"
"I will not fall." Arthur roared at him like a wild beast.
Prepare for the next confrontation and anticipate the attack.
"I won't fall down either. That's far from it!" Zefa also began to learn and said the same thing to Arthur.
……
"Marshal Kong, something terrible has happened!" An instructor under Zefa hurried to the marshal's office to report.
"What happened? Is there another war overseas?" Kong was troubled by what had happened in recent days.
I thought it was another war involving non-member countries.
"No, Marshal Kong, Chief Instructor Zefa and the new recruits recruited by Dorag have been fighting at the training base for three days!" The instructor said to Marshal Kong with a worried look on his face.
"What?" Kong was shocked. "The new recruits fought with Zefa for two days?"
"Marshal, go and stop Chief Instructor Zefa. If the fight continues, someone will die!"
……
The elites in the training base were given two full days off because of the competition between Arthur and Zephyr.
"That boy is just stubborn. Only a fool would be so persistent. His body must have reached its limit, right?" said the new recruit named Kake, looking at the two men.
"The ground is in such a mess. How many days will this competition last?"
"Hey, Kake, look over there...over there!" A soldier next to Kake patted him on the shoulder and pointed at a group of female soldiers in the distance.
"Ah?" Kaji looked around and his eyes suddenly widened.
Gion and a group of female soldiers watched the fight between Zefa and Arthur from a distance.
"No...she is just too beautiful today." Kaji touched his sparse hair and decided to confess his feelings again.
The people around Kaji were speechless for a moment, and asked in unison: "When did she become unbeautiful in your eyes?"
"Instructor Zefa and that new guy have gone crazy." Kaji stretched his limbs on the spot and glanced at the people behind him: "Brothers, watch my performance. This time it will definitely be a success."
Kaji has a very ordinary appearance, but has an invincible physique.
That is absolute confidence and optimism.
He took a running start and ran towards Gion, then suddenly knelt on his knees, slid and kowtowed to his knees in front of Gion's slender and graceful thighs.
"You...what are you going to do, Kaji?" Gion gave Kaji a cold look of disdain: "The instructor is still fighting with the new boy, what are you doing to me?"
"Be my girlfriend, Gion!" Kake raised his head suddenly and shook his plain face: "This is my 36th confession to you. I named it, Fancy Romantic Diving Kneeling Confession!"
"You...you are a good person, Kake. But we are really not suitable." Gion held his forehead in public. Even though he had experienced it many times, he still felt very ashamed.
"I will never give up, Gion!"
In an instant, Cyborg Kong learned the news and quickly came to the base where Zephyr was, and saw Arthur fighting fiercely with Zephyr with a knife in the playground.
The rapidly swinging blade couldn't touch Zephyr at all, but Zephyr's fist could hit Arthur from time to time.
Both of them had smiles on their faces -
"The news of the new recruit's physique has reached the ears of the Five Elders." Gang Gukong stood quietly outside the arena, watching the game with his arms folded across his chest: "I didn't expect it to be so terrifying when I saw it with my own eyes."
"Stop them now, Marshal, or people will die!"
"Zefa knows his limits, don't worry..."
The naval instructor was speechless. He had asked Gang Gu Kong to end the competition that lasted for almost three days, but he didn't expect him to come to watch the battle.
"Keep working harder! Hahaha!" Zefa's uncontrollable laughter reached everyone's ears.
Looking at the resolute Arthur who continued to swing his sword, it seemed as if he saw that there was still hope for the future of the navy.
