Countless of me are traveling through time at the same time!

Chapter 85: Development of the Dark-Dark Fruit: Desperate Reincarnation! A one-on-one battle between real men!

"Hmm..." Rossinanti nodded hurriedly.

He was very surprised.

Luke seemed to be a very easy-going person, and he didn't dislike him for his embarrassing fall...

And guessed what I was thinking!
In the past few years since being adopted by Zhan Guo.

Rossinandi has been living in the Navy Headquarters. In the stable and peaceful environment, his irritated heart has gradually calmed down and he has developed a strong sense of belonging to the Navy.

At least he is more trustworthy than the pirate group founded by Doflamingo who shot his father...

In Rossinanti's heart, he really regarded Zhan Guo as his father.

After calming down, Rosinante also had the need to make friends like a normal teenager...

But the problem is that his identity is special and his experiences are complicated.

It's hard for Rosinante to find topics to talk about with his peers in the Navy Headquarters...

The generals and admirals in the navy each have their own tasks.

Even the elite students who joined the Navy training camp did not study full-time, and they had to go on duty when they were supposed to...

It is natural that he is incompatible with this little kid.

At most, he would touch Rosinante's head and, for Zhan Guo's sake, praise the child for being so cute.

Continue to do your own thing, all mysterious in the eyes of this little kid.

Until Luke showed up.

Rossinanti was surprised to find that there were other "idlers" like himself in the Navy Headquarters?
Like a fixed refresh NPC.

He would automatically appear in the cafeteria at mealtime, and then go to the training ground after meal. This was the case every day.

This is because under Zefa's arrangement, Luke does not need to go on any missions and only needs to concentrate on training.

Zefa wants Luke to seize this "newbie benefit period" when his strength explodes, and to push as high as possible in one go, instead of entering a plateau period prematurely due to trivial matters.

On top of this sea.

Most of the strong people realize most of their talents at this stage.

After that comes the slow work.

It depends on the years and the tempering of the state of mind, and it is difficult to make significant improvements.

Feeling that he had met a kindred spirit, Rosinante gradually began to pay attention to Luke.

So, I heard a lot of rumors about Luke, such as the strange stories of the Navy Headquarters...

A monster that can eat a mountain, a devil that practices day and night, a dark man who seals all abilities...

Young Rosinante became more and more interested in Luke, and even wrote down all of Luke's deeds in a small notebook.

Tonight, Rosinante finally couldn't help but sneak out of the house, wanting to try to make friends with Luke...

Obviously, he succeeded!

Luke put the blond kid on the ground, picked up the water and drank it down, then tore the jerky in his hand into strips, handed a handful to Rossinanti, and motioned for him to eat with him.

"Kid, you look so confused..." Luke smacked his lips. The jerky given by Rosinante was indeed delicious. He was worthy of being a member of the Warring States family.

They are all special supplies!

"Since I have eaten your water and meat, I am your friend."

"If you have anything to say, just say it..." Luke looked down at Rosinante and said softly.

Rosinante shook his head nervously, then nodded, his face gradually turning red.

"I…"

“I don’t know what to do or what to do in the future.”

Rosinante whispered:

"I really want to be as focused as Mr. Luke and find something I want to do clearly. Then I will feel less confused and calm down..."

The blond kid's face suddenly turned red, and his voice was as low as a mosquito's: "Seeing Mr. Luke's practice, the annoying voices in my heart will be much quieter..."

If Luke didn't have the Observation Haki, he might not have been able to hear what Rosinante was mumbling.

As for what this kid said...

Luke wanted to laugh after hearing this.

Just staying with yourself will make your heart peaceful, right?

Another self of mine is the jinchūriki of Sarutobi, so how come he ended up becoming a pirate and a rootless person!

But it’s understandable.

The so-called anxiety and internal friction will grow like weeds when you have nothing to do. If you have something to focus on, you will feel more at ease.

"what's your name?"

"My name is Rosinante..."

"Rosinante, there are many lost people on this sea, including me." Luke slowly spoke as he met Rosinante's surprised eyes:

"Teacher Zefa once asked me, what is my justice? I said I don't know."

"This world is too chaotic. The Celestial Dragons, the Navy, the World Government, pirates, various races... Hatred, justice, and fairness are all reflected differently in different standpoints."

"It's normal for a kid like you to be confused. There's no need to blame yourself for it. It's a sign of your maturity." Luke's voice was gentle, forming a wonderful contrast with his strong body.

Rossinandi has steam coming out of his head...

I was praised loudly by Mr. Luke!

Luke smiled inwardly.

Kids of this age love to hear others praise their maturity.

When you are young, you look forward to growing up, but when you grow up, you miss your youth. It’s the same thing…

As for Rosinante, in Luke's opinion, this kid is very valuable.

First of all, the identity of the Celestial Dragons.

Although it is not in the official sequence now, with a little manipulation, it may produce some unexpected surprises.

The second is his status as the adopted son of the Warring States Period.

With Zephyr retiring to the second line and Caplen not wanting to be the admiral, it was a foregone conclusion that Sengoku would be the marshal.

Having such a relationship with the Navy Admiral in advance is definitely a good thing if Luke wants to gain more power and resources in the Navy in the future.

"I won't ask you what you are confused about, but you have to know..."

Luke said softly:

“Instead of standing still and wondering what you want, it is better to first make yourself capable enough, which is the basis for practicing your own beliefs.”

"On this sea, even if you uphold justice and righteousness...if you are weaker than the enemy, you will be defeated and become the evil one!"

Rosinante looked straight at Luke, vaguely understanding something.

Mr. Luke, you must be working so hard just to have enough strength to practice justice!

"Mr. Luke, can I practice with you?"

Rosinante hesitated for a long time, and whispered: "I don't know how to try...Being by your side, I feel at peace..."

Luke smiled and said, "You can practice with me, but you must strictly follow my arrangements, otherwise don't bother me." Rossinanti nodded vigorously.

"Well then, the order now is that the children should go back to bed at this time..."

Luke waved his hand and said, "Come over tomorrow morning at seven o'clock. Remember to bring me food and water for fifteen people. This is the first step to build up your physical strength."

Rosinante smiled widely, saluted Luke in a very formal manner, and skipped away.

Luke shrugged, turned his head to look into the distance, and nodded in greeting.

Started the night practice.

Zhan Guo, who was in the shadows in the distance, was stunned.

"This kid's observation Haki is increasing at a speed visible to the naked eye. Three months ago, he was unable to sense me, who was hiding on purpose..."

The corners of Zhan Guo's mouth curled up. A monster that could clear the sea appeared in the navy.

As a general who is destined to ascend to the position of marshal, how could he not pay attention to the evildoers among the newcomers?

As early as when Luke defeated Kuzan, Sengoku marked Luke as someone for special attention.

Rosinante sneaks out to find Luke...

How could a little kid's actions escape the admiral's observation Haki?
All were under the control of the Warring States period.

And Luke's answer also made Zhan Guo very satisfied.

I didn't instill any ideas in Rocinante, but emphasized that becoming stronger is a universal thing. I also knew not to force things, and told the kid not to stay up late and go back to sleep...

As expected, he is Zefa’s most beloved disciple, and his teacher is also a top-notch one!

Zhan Guo coughed heavily, and in response to Luke, he went home with his hands behind his back.

He felt relieved to let his son stay with Luke!
This is a rare master in the Navy who is so serious about his training but also knows how to let his children relax and work at a moderate level without any bias or personal opinions. It is really hard to find such a famous teacher in the sea...

And Luke continued to practice as usual.

In the second half of the night, Luke let out a long breath.

He felt it.

Quantitative change has caused qualitative change!
"The training of the Ultimate Iron Block has entered the stage of self-enhancement..."

A dark flash appeared on Luke's finger, and he poked the other arm that was not covered with armament color.

There was actually a sound of metal clashing against each other!
After maintaining this ability day and night for half a year, Luke has made this ability an instinctive part of his body, and the effect will exist even without having to maintain it deliberately.

"The training of Armament Haki has reached the third step..." Luke stared at the dark arms, recalling the steps that Zephyr explained to him.

Entanglement hardening is the most basic application of armed color.

The second stage is to condense the armament color in a certain area, forming a flowing barrier with greater power.

The highest level of use of Armament Haki is to use force to penetrate into the enemy's body, causing internal destruction!

In the original time and space, Luffy mastered this level of armament color, which allowed him to harm Kaido's body.

Luke benefited a lot from the six months in the Naval Officer Training Camp.

Just like the two years Luffy spent in the Calm Belt...

The only difference is that the one who taught Luffy was Rayleigh, while the one who taught Luke was Zephyr.

"Kaido is really reliable. He taught Luffy the Conqueror's Haki Entanglement in just a few seconds... Rayleigh taught him for two years, but he could only teach Luffy to an entry-level level..."

Luke laughed in his heart.

He was thinking, why not find an opportunity to fight Kaido?
After practicing till now, Luke has mastered various advanced uses of Armament Haki and Observation Haki...

When you reach this stage, self-cultivation can no longer be used to quickly improve you.

It requires actual combat, lots of actual combat!
Only then can you improve and hone yourself quickly.

"Let's wait until Kozuki Oden returns to Wano Country. After all, Kaido and Kurozumi Orochi are already waiting for him there..." Luke thought to himself:

"Then I will fight Kaido and take Wano Country into my hands."

Luke didn't have much of a relationship with Whitebeard's sworn brother.

However, he is very interested in the Wano Country, which is rich in seastone and knows how to process it, and the Kozuki family's ability to interpret historical texts...

These resources would be a waste whether in the hands of Kaido or Oden.

You have to keep it yourself.

"Actual combat, and the entanglement of domineering color..."

Luke thought: "There is also my second fruit! It can make up for the destructive power and functionality, and I have to get it as soon as possible..."

"There's no need to be too picky. Next time, after sharing, you may be able to eat the third fruit."

Teach's fate is now in the shape of Luke.

No matter what the reason was for the original time and space Teach to eat the double fruit...

Luke could clearly feel that the power that could not be adapted to the pirate world after sharing formed a strange cavity in his body in a localized form.

When this cavity matures, it becomes the container for the third fruit.

“It would be best if a powerful fruit could be delivered to my doorstep…” Luke pondered, and suddenly his eyes lit up.

Calculating the time, in a short time, after Roger finds the great secret treasure and turns himself in, the mad golden lion will come to Marinford to cause trouble!
His Floating Fruit is a very strategically useful thing in this ocean!
Especially when Luke knew that Vegapunk announced to the world before being executed in the original time and space that the entire continent was about to sink...

The floating fruit becomes even more precious.

The Golden Lion can make several huge islands float in the sky for decades!

"Killing the Golden Lion? This is not an easy task..."

Luke's eyes flashed with coldness: "Isn't he the old lion who escaped from Impel Down after being starved for twenty years and having his legs cut off? Even though the rudder of a ship was stuck in his brain, he is still one of the strongest people on the sea..."

“But I also have advantages.”

"This old lion is used to being a floating person. With the gravity of the Dark-Dark Fruit, it is not difficult to catch him if he is not careful."

"If you use that trick, let the marines use their lives to consume him first. Even without Sengoku and Garp, I have the confidence to kill him!"

The move Luke was referring to, named Samsara Despair, was the result of his development of the Dark-Dark Fruit.

Releases a massive amount of darkness, creating a large spherical field that traps Luke and his enemies alone.

In the desperate situation of reincarnation, darkness will cover everything and gradually absorb the enemy's physical strength.

The enemy can only sense Luke with his observation Haki.

Even if the fruit ability user is not caught by Luke, his power will be greatly weakened in this area.

This domain will only end if Luke actively removes his ability, or if one of the enemy or Luke dies in battle.

A real man fighting one on one.

"If I can master the Conqueror's Haki, I'll be more stable... After all, he's the Golden Lion, I have to respect his strength..." Just as Luke was thinking this, his hair suddenly stood up.

Look up.

Cap dropped from the sky, laughing and punching him!

It was a fist wrapped in black and red lightning!
