Chapter 456: Iron Block! Grass...
Of course, things are not as bad as imagined. Those two packs of cigarettes have been given out for more than a day or two. If they really want to cause trouble, they can't sit there leisurely like they are now.
While everyone was chatting, the waiter had already brought the food. Everyone tasted it briefly. After finishing this restaurant, there were still many shops waiting for them to explore.
The town of Marinford is indeed a prosperous town as Ain said. Even the town of Rogue near the entrance of the Grand Line cannot compare with it.
The mental outlook of the people on the street is also different from that in Rogue Town. Living near the Navy Headquarters makes them feel very safe.
Only the elderly know that this place will either be normal or something terribly wrong will happen, but such things only happen once in decades, so most of the time everyone just needs to live a down-to-earth life.
Everyone took a good walk around the town and came away with various items including toothpaste and toothbrushes, history and art books, dolls, snacks, clothes, etc.
After returning to the base, everyone shared their things with familiar Marines - after being here for so long, there would always be some familiar people.
For example, Kane, who was thrown over the shoulder by Tom, would always challenge them whenever he had the chance. Although his record was still ugly, his strength improved rapidly.
Kane, holding the toothpaste in his hand, was lost in thought. Why did his roommates receive snacks while he received only toothpaste? He bared his teeth in the mirror. They weren't dirty...
In a flash, a few days passed. Zhang Daye and his classmates continued to exercise every day in the training camp, learn the six styles, develop their abilities, and occasionally beat the students in various courses.
Of course, it is also important to learn some useful knowledge in cultural courses. Zefa is also very thoughtful and specially found ordinary teachers to teach the little girls various basic knowledge.
Although Zhang Da also urged them to learn these things on the Amber, it was not as comprehensive as what a real teacher would teach.
Because Zhang Da was worried, he would often take turns with others to attend classes. The ostensible reason was to prevent Perona from taking the lead in causing trouble, but in fact he was worried that the teacher would instill strange ideas in them.
By the way, you can also borrow some teaching materials as a backup so that you can continue your classes after leaving the training camp.
Perona protested against this arrangement, but her protest was ineffective. Zhang Da also felt that it was almost time to arrange junior high school level courses for her.
…
This kind of life continued until Akainu went out on a mission and Kizaru returned from his mission.
What Zhang Daye worried about did not happen. Akainu left the naval base normally that day. This made him relieved that nothing happened, but also disappointed that he could not see the gentle Akainu.
"Today's combat class is different from the previous ones." Zefa gestured to the scarred man beside him, "I've invited Lieutenant General Dauberman to teach you all about taijutsu and swordsmanship."
Inviting free generals to the training camp to instruct the students is something Zefa often does. Anyway, he has a lot of lieutenant general students, so he has to give some face to anyone he invites, even if the students have different ideas from him now.
"Hello everyone, I'm Doberman." Doberman tried to put on a kind expression, but the effect was not very ideal because of his face full of scars.
Fortunately, this is a military camp. Except for Tom and Carew who were a little scared, the cadets not only didn't care, but also looked at him with admiration - scars are medals of soldiers. Lieutenant General Dauberman's face was injured like that, and the severity of the battles he had experienced can be imagined.
"Like you, I am also a student of Mr. Zefa." Doberman had great respect for Zefa. "To be honest, my level is far from being comparable to Mr. Zefa's, but since it is Mr. Zefa's request, I have no choice but to come and communicate with you."
In fact, he was a little scared by Akainu's changes recently and urgently needed to go out and relax. Just as Zephyr found him, he agreed.
In addition, Doberman also wanted to see who the legendary Amber Tour Group was - there was clearly no problem with the box of cigarettes, so what was going on with General Sakaski's change?
"Don't be so modest," Zefa said. "Lieutenant General Doberman's swordsmanship and Haki are both excellent. Everyone should learn from him seriously."
"Yes!" the students answered loudly.
There were a few strange people mixed in with the voices. Doberman looked at Zhang Daye and the others carefully and started teaching.
"Swordsmanship is about powerful lethality, aiming for a single strike to defeat the enemy..." Dauberman briefly explained his understanding of swordsmanship, then drew his katana and demonstrated basic techniques like slashing and stabbing. "If you want to achieve success in swordsmanship, a solid foundation is essential."
Zhang Da was also listening to him talk for a long time. In the end, he could only agree with the last sentence: swordsmanship is swordsmanship, there is no need for so much nonsense.
However, Lieutenant General Doberman performed the basic movements beautifully, and it seemed that he had put a lot of effort into it. Zhang Da also silently commented on Doberman in his heart, and then felt that his mentality might be a little drifting.
Ordinary students listened to the class much more seriously than he did, especially those who had a little talent in swordsmanship. It was the first time for them to hear a lieutenant general who had experienced many battles and was good at swordsmanship share his experience without reservation.
Some of the more clever students tentatively drew out the navy's standard swords, and seeing that Zefa did not stop them, they boldly followed the drill, correcting their movements bit by bit according to Doberman's explanation.
Dauberman nodded in satisfaction at the changes in the students, but when he saw a cat swinging its sword and stabbing in an orderly manner, his expression froze.
What's wrong with this cat? The movement, strength, and angle of the sword-swinging are exactly the same as his. With his eyesight, he can't find any fault at all!
Zefa watched Doberman's expression change, and found a subtle amusement. "Let's get more people to guide us in the future," Zefa decided. "It's all for the students' benefit."
He patted Dauberman on the shoulder and said, "Go on. Don't worry about the cat."
"Um, ah, yes." Doberman suppressed his surprise and confusion and continued to give further guidance to the students.
As the class was about to end, Doberman finally couldn't help but approach Altria: "I heard that Ms. Altria once fought a fierce battle with Hawkeye Mihawk, and it was evenly matched. Why do you have the patience to listen to me explain these simple things?"
Altria slowly sheathed her sword: "What you explained is very useful to me. Thank you for your guidance."
"I don't think I'm capable of teaching you." Doberman's observation Haki told him that the thin, petite girl before him was very strong, but he wasn't one to back down easily. "Would you mind if I had the honor of exchanging some advice?"
Altria didn't mind a fight with the other party: "If possible."
Fighting intent rose in the eyes of the two men, and they looked at Zefa at the same time. If they wanted to fight here, they would have to seek the consent of the training camp instructor.
"Really? Everyone, disperse!" Zefa asked the other students to retreat to the edge of the training ground to watch the fight, then said, "It's okay to spar a little, but don't make it too much."
The training ground is quite large, and it is sufficient for just sparring, and it also allows the students to broaden their horizons.
Zhang Da also stepped aside and pulled Tom, who was eager to try, with him. Otherwise, he felt that Tom would shout "watch out for the sword" in the next second. Although he also wanted to see Tom beat up the vice admiral, he guessed that Zephyr would not agree.
After so many days of training and fighting, Zefa has determined that there is no point in arranging people to fight against Tom because they can't learn any experience at all.
Even if it increases, it is completely useless experience - normal enemies will not jump up and continue fighting after being flattened.
If there is any meaning in fighting Tom, it is probably that it can bring joy to the onlookers.
Under the expectant gazes of the Marines, the two swords collided.
Altria gave Doberman enough respect and changed into the blue dress and silver armor. With her serious expression during the battle, she instantly amazed everyone present.
“So strong, so beautiful!”
"Is this the first time we've seen Miss Altria use her full strength?"
"Yes, Lieutenant General Dauberman was suppressed!"
The Marines were talking about it. Usually, Altria was either slacking off or eating and drinking with Tom. This was the first time they saw her fighting seriously.
Zhang Da also listened happily to everyone's praise of Altria, smiling without saying a word.
This is not Altria's full strength. She was much more ferocious when she fought Hawkeye. It seems that she really wants to exchange swordsmanship and force out all that Doberman has learned with every move.
I can even spare a bit of my attention to pay attention to which moves are suitable for Tatsuya and which are suitable for Mengmeng...
The two men fought for nearly an hour. The land in the center of the training ground was rolled up, with gullies everywhere, and it was destroyed beyond recognition.
Altria's expression remained unchanged, while Doberman's forehead began to sweat - not from physical fatigue, but from too much mental stress.
He felt that Altria's sword was not in his hand, but hanging above his head, ready to stab him in the vitals at any time. This feeling was really uncomfortable.
Dauberman fought for a few more rounds, then stepped back and said frankly, "I lost. I didn't realize I had so many weaknesses. Thanks for the advice."
"Just communicating with each other." It wasn't that Altria was without gain. At least she had new things to teach Tatsuya. It seemed like it had been a while since she had played against him. I wonder how much progress he had made recently.
Both sides benefited from it. The students were greatly enlightened, and Zefa was also very satisfied with the students' gains. No one lost out.
Only the Navy Headquarters needs to allocate a small amount of funds to maintain the training ground. I think Zhan Guo will not say anything after learning about the teaching results.
Zhan Guo, who was about to feed the sheep with a document, sneezed and the document hit the sheep's nose.
"Mee~" the lamb cried in dissatisfaction, turned around and pointed its butt at Zhan Guo. It missed Tom a little, the kitten who fed it grass, he was simply an angel.
Zhan Guo rubbed his nose, feeling a sense of foreboding: "Could that Garp guy be causing trouble again?"
…
The next month was the happiest month for the trainees in the training camp, because Zefa would invite a well-known Chinese future star to the training camp to share his experience every now and then, such as Huoshaoshan, Dalmessia, and Storoberi.
The lieutenant generals each had their own strengths in swordsmanship, physical skills, and the six styles, and what they taught was also different, but just listening to the lieutenant generals talk about their respective combat experiences and insights made them feel that they benefited a lot.
In particular, the lieutenant generals will provide hands-on guidance to students who are more compatible with them. If nothing unexpected happens, these people will most likely be assigned to the command of these lieutenant generals after graduation and receive intensive training.
This is actually one of Zefa's purposes. He generally does not interfere with the so-called "factional" struggles within the navy, nor does he interfere with the students' respective ideas of justice. He will only try to provide them with enough opportunities and let them make their own choices. Ultimately, they have to walk their own path in the future.
In addition, I don’t know when it started, but it became a must to fight with the members of the Amber Travel Group at the end of the course. Sometimes it was Altria, sometimes it was Rui Mengmeng and Shark Chili, and even Zhang Da had a fight with Lieutenant General Huoshaoshan.
What the students are most looking forward to is this exciting session. Not only can they see the style of the lieutenant generals, but they can also learn more about the strength of the Amber Travel Group that has been suppressing them, and learn something, killing three birds with one stone.
Seeing their enthusiasm, Ye Yan immediately thought of opening the market to make money, and even wanted to instigate everyone to play a fake match and split the profits 30% to 70% after the success.
Unfortunately, no one paid attention to him and Ye Yan missed the opportunity to make a fortune.
In fact, even if Zhang Da did not participate in a fake match, he would have no way to deal with the fire burning the mountain. In the absence of wanting to expose his multiple abilities, Zhang Da could only rely on swordsmanship and six styles to fight.
He couldn't use magic to add status to himself, couldn't use super transformation to explode, and couldn't use the Soul-Calming Gong to ambush him. Zhang Da had a hard time fighting that battle.
"Brother Tatsuya, when it comes to the Storm Kick, you need to focus your strength a little more. For swordsmen like us, you can imagine your legs as a knife and use the flying slash technique as a reference." Huoshaoshan corrected Zhang Tatsuya's Storm Kick technique and even demonstrated it himself, "Just like this, Storm Kick - Break!"
Zhang Daye's mind was thinking about the words about burning the mountain, and his body reacted subconsciously: "Iron block!"
"Fuck..." Zhang Da, who had come to his senses, immediately added a layer of armed color, a layer of magic power, and a layer of true energy to his chest, and successfully took on the Lan Kick, emphasizing the word "stable".
The students watching the match were amazed: "Tatsuya -san actually developed his own Iron Block derivative technique?"
"Iron Grass, I don't know what it means, but it seems very strong."
"Yes, he actually took on Vice Admiral Huoshaoshan's attack intact."
Zhang Da also listened to the Marines' discussions and felt embarrassed, but was too embarrassed to correct them.
Ye Yan was nearly laughing like crazy in the crowd, pinching his throat and screaming, "Mr. Tatsuya is too strong! Please teach me this move 'Iron Block·Grass'!"
