Chapter 23 He is indeed a genius
The sky is blue, the sea is blue, and the white clouds are floating.
The huge warship sailed at a steady speed on the endless blue sea, dragging a long white trail from its tail.
In the dark cabin, Darren sat cross-legged on the deck alone, his eyes closed.
The light of the oil lamp cast a vague shadow on the cabin wall.
Three metal balls with smooth surfaces floated in mid-air, moving centripetally around his body.
If anyone were here, they would probably be surprised.
Because these three metal balls flying and moving around the naval colonel, even during the movement, the relative distance between them has always remained absolutely consistent!
This requires extremely high levels of control.
Time passes minute by minute,
With the gentle movement of Darren's fingers, the three metal balls continued to change shapes like liquids, sometimes elongating and extending into sharp spikes, twisting and wriggling like sinister iron ropes, and sometimes spreading out like solid steel. shield……
at some point,
Darren slowly opened his eyes.
The three metal spheres immediately gathered together, and finally changed shape into a silver metal wristband, solidifying on the navy colonel's right wrist.
He exhaled softly, a satisfied smile twitching at the corner of his mouth.
Physical fitness: 60.451
Strength: 55.890
Speed: 58.048
Fruit: 71.871
"Sure enough, real actual combat and fighting can force yourself to grow faster..."
Darren used his "insight" talent to sense his physical condition and couldn't help but say something with emotion.
In the past few months, his cultivation progress has basically slowed down a lot, and even his speed and fruit ability have almost come to a standstill.
Although as he continued to increase his training intensity, various physical data were still slowly improving, but the speed of improvement was no longer satisfactory.
However, after the battle with Germa 66, Darren's physique and strength increased by more than 1 point.
If it is training, it will take at least a month to achieve the same effect.
"It's a pity that Germa 66 was too weak and couldn't really get me into the state."
Darren smiled and lit a cigar.
Germa 66 and Vinsmoke Gaji are actually not weak, but their own abilities are too restrained by Germa's technological weapons.
There is no doubt that if it were not for his own appearance, with the military strength of Vinsmoke Gaji and Germa 66, it would not be a big problem to "kill the kings of the four countries in the North Sea" and even dominate the North Sea.
"I really miss the time when I fought with that madman Sakaski..."
Darren's eyes were filled with emotion.
Before Sakaski left Beihai and went to the headquarters for training, he would often train and compete with the former without using their Devil Fruit abilities.
Of course, the "discussion" between the two of them was fatal in the eyes of others.
After all, that guy Sakaski never holds back.
If you are not careful, you may be killed and it will tragically become an "accident".
During that period, although he would be seriously injured almost every day, Darren was intoxicated by the hearty fighting and the state of constantly forcing himself to break through the limits in the crisis of life and death.
That was also the period when his strength made the fastest leap.
Unfortunately, that is all in the past.
After training in the officer training camp of the headquarters, and under the guidance of former Navy Admiral Zefa Blackarm, Sakaski is now estimated to have mastered Haki.
The distance between me and him has been stretched infinitely.
After all, Teacher Kaido said... Haki is the most powerful ability in this ocean.
With this thought in mind, Darren slowly stood up.
He was in no hurry.
The third officer training camp is about to start, and if there is no accident, I have already obtained a spot.
Although his talent is far inferior to monsters like Sakaski and Porusalino, Darren believes that with his ability, he can definitely win a place in the navy.
Before that, he must build up the North Sea Fleet.
Build this powerful fleet that will be equipped with Germa technology into a military force that belongs only to you and only obeys your orders.
A firm light flashed in Darren's deep eyes. He walked out of the cabin and opened the door.
As the sun shines down, a navy soldier is on patrol outside the cabin, performing routine maintenance on guns and artillery.
On the spacious deck, Kake and Gion were practicing in a sweaty manner.
The former was carrying a huge barbell weighing one ton, gnashing his teeth and doing a handstand and pushing up with a ferocious face.
The latter held a long sword in his hand, with a serious look on his face, practicing his swordsmanship in a measured and orderly manner. The sharp blade cut the air, making bursts of sharp whistling sounds.
"Are they two having a seizure?"
Darren looked at this scene with confusion and asked the flying squirrel walking over.
The flying squirrel rubbed its temples helplessly,
"The Germa 66 incident was quite irritating to them, especially Jiaji... he practiced like crazy after he came back."
Darren couldn't help laughing when he thought of the miserable sight of Jiajie being stepped on the face by Vinsmoke Gaji and then kicked out.
boom! !
At this time, a huge water column tens of meters high suddenly exploded from one side of the warship.
The stormy waves surged up, and the entire warship suddenly shook.
"what happened!?"
"Is it an enemy attack?"
"No! It's the Neptune type!!"
"..."
The faces of the navy officers on the deck changed slightly, and they acted quickly, pulling out their sabers, raising their spears, and adjusting the cannons on the warship.
A huge shadow slowly emerged from the splashing sea water and was projected in front of everyone, almost covering the entire warship.
The scorching sun above the head seemed to disappear, replaced by a huge monster sixty or seventy meters high.
It has jet-black scales and gills, making it look like a giant eel.
Lantern-sized pupils looked down at the navy on the deck, slowly opening a bloody mouth filled with sharp teeth.
"Small Neptune type?"
Darren looked at the "strange fish" in front of him with great interest.
At this time, Vegapunk had not yet developed a method of loading seastones on the bottom of warships to allow the navy to survive the windless zone.
In other words, Neptune-like creatures can still sense the aura of warships at this time.
The flying squirrel next to him subconsciously stretched out his hand and grasped the handle of the saber at his waist, and was about to take action.
Darren held his shoulders and shook his head.
The flying squirrel was stunned when he heard a strange cry coming from the deck.
"Hahahahaha!! Just the right time!! Let's use this little reptile like you to verify the results of this genius' training!!"
The moment the arrogant laughter broke out, Jiaji's figure stepped on the railing of the warship and shot up like a cannonball.
Roar! !
A touch of human anger flashed in the blood-red eyes of the Neptune creature, as if it was angered by the arrogance of the "ant" in front of it, and it suddenly let out a deafening roar.
The majestic sound suddenly fell, causing many sailors on the deck to stagger.
The Neptune creature opened its bloody mouth full of sharp teeth and swallowed the Jia Ji who was leaping high in the air.
boom! !
Add one punch!
Ripples of air waves visible to the naked eye spread out.
The Neptune's eyes froze, and his expression became confused.
Crackling...
Under Jiaji's punch, dense cracks appeared on its teeth, and then they shattered.
Neptune type:......
Hot tears brewed in its eyes.
at this time,
Keng! !
The buzzing sound of a famous sword being unsheathed suddenly exploded.
The golden famous sword tore through the air, and a golden sword light roared out through the air and flashed in the void.
laugh! !
A long and thin bloodstain slowly appeared on the neck of the poor Neptune creature.
Cut it in two!
Then,
Boom! !
The huge head of the Neptune species separated from its body, and then fell to the sea, setting off turbulent waves again.
The blood that kept pouring out turned the sea surface red.
on deck.
Jia Ji landed firmly on the ground and put on a pose that he thought was handsome.
Gion sheathed his sword with an indifferent expression, his cloak flying freely behind him.
The other marines stared at Gion and Kake who had easily defeated the giant Neptune beast. They were silent for a second and then cheered with joy.
Some people even threw out fishing nets quickly, preparing for additional meals.
"He is indeed a genius of this department...a candidate for the future general..."
Darren looked at this scene and murmured to himself with emotion.
Through the actions of the two of them, Darren could tell at a glance that their strength had clearly improved a lot compared to when they first came to Beihai.
Jiaji's strength, speed and physical skills have increased by at least 30%.
As for Gion... he even understood the "Flying Slash" and was able to slash out the sword light, stepping into the realm of swordsman in one fell swoop!
It’s only been a few days! !
This terrifying talent, even if it is not as good as "monsters" like Sakaski and Porusalino, is not far behind.
"Hahahahaha!! Darren, did you see that!!"
Jiaji walked over with a stern expression on his face, raised his hands and flexed his arms, showing off his biceps.
"For such a big Neptune, I could smash all his teeth with just one punch. How can you—"
boom! !
At this moment, as if attracted by the blood of the Neptune type, huge waves exploded on the sea again.
one end,
Both ends,
Three heads,
…
A total of eight Neptune-like creatures with a height of more than 100 meters emerged from the undulating sea surface with their heads raised and roaring. They echoed each other and made a roar that shook the world.
As the huge body twisted and rolled, a stormy wave arose on the sea surface, rushing towards the warship.
The "small" warship swayed and trembled in front of the eight-headed and larger Sea King class.
Darren waved.
The metal wrist guard on the arm suddenly fell off, and then twisted and stretched like a living creature into a sharp spear, which suddenly shot through the air.
Sharp explosions continued to explode, and under the force of the terrifying magnetic field, wherever the metal spear passed, white ripples bloomed in the surrounding void.
The speed climbed to the extreme in an instant.
No one can see its trajectory clearly.
Everyone on the deck only felt a blur in front of their eyes, as if something was repeatedly passing back and forth in the void, like a silver phantom.
The eight roaring Neptune-like creatures all froze.
laugh! !
Densely packed small blood holes constantly exploded on the surface of their bodies, spraying out high-pressure blood flow like a sieve.
Boom! !
The behemoths collapsed one after another, causing water jets to reach the sky.
Darren recalled the metal spear, condensed it into a wrist guard again, and put it on casually. Behind him was a scene of eight lifeless Neptunes falling into the sea.
He turned to look at the stunned Jia Ji and said:
"Major Jiaji, what did you want to say just now?"
The corners of Jiaji's mouth twitched and he smiled:
"I said you can do better than me!"
Darren glanced at him, patted his shoulder, and looked into the distance.
The outline of an island gradually emerged on the distant sea.
"Get ready, we are about to land on the island."
The corner of his mouth curled up into a sarcastic arc that looked like a smile but not a smile:
"Our mission this time is to protect the great, sacred and noble Tianlong people."
