Chapter 457: Perona is floating - Speed is power
Without looking back, Zhang Da knew who was the one who started the commotion. He took note of it and promised not to retaliate.
Although Huoshaoshan's name sounds like he is from Akainu's faction, he is actually a person with a relatively gentle personality, and his competition with Zhang Daya only stopped at a certain point.
Seeing that Zhang Da was also lost in thought (meaning he was awkwardly standing there), Huoshaoshan turned to instruct others, and when the time was up, he said goodbye to Zefa - he was one of the few people who could come to the training camp and still save face.
"By the way, thank you for the cigars you gave me last time. This is the dessert I brought back from the New World. I think the little girls will like it." General Huoshaoshan asked someone to bring a few gift boxes as a return gift and gave them to Zhang Daye.
"Desserts from the New World? I thank you on their behalf." Zhang Da was also curious about where he got it from. It's not like he went to the aunt's territory to carry out a mission and dug it up, right?
Sure enough, the desserts sent by Huoshaoshan received unanimous praise from the little girls, and they even had the idea of going to a new world.
"Your decision is quite rash." Zhang Da also said, "We will go to the New World later, but it is still too dangerous now. It is difficult for us to defeat the Four Emperors now, so how can we play in the New World with confidence?"
"Are the Four Emperors that strong?" Jackie Chan asked, "Can't even Altria defeat them?"
"Well... I'm talking about the Four Emperors together."
"You don't have to be so exaggerated, do you?" Xia Lulu complained, "Are you taking us on a trip or to go to war?"
"We've offended so many people, who knows how many want to murder us? We should hurry up and become stronger so we can have more fun later." Zhang Da also said, "Look at Weiwei, she's made great progress recently. Have you learned anything in all this time?"
Weiwei smiled sheepishly.
"Hmph..." Perona didn't get angry like usual, but raised her head with a smug look on her face, "How do you know I haven't made any progress?"
Zhang Da also became interested : "Oh? Show it to me?"
"Watch carefully." Three negative ghosts floated out from Perona's palm, and the ghosts merged into Perona's appearance and stood on the ground.
Zhang Da had seen this trick before: "Isn't this just a ghost clone developed just to slack off in front of me?"
"It's not over yet!" Perona, who was sitting on the chair, slowly floated up and slowly circled several times above Zhang Daye's head.
"Hehehehehe~ How is it?" Perona changed her postures casually in the air, looking very comfortable.
"You can fly?" Zhang Daye and Jackie Chan were all very surprised. Before, he could only make his spirit float, and his body could only stay in place.
Vivi and Wendy seemed to have known about this for a long time and did not show any surprise.
In fact, Wendy is in a dilemma now. He doesn't know whether he should tell everyone that Perona learned to float just because she was too tired from practicing Moon Steps.
Looking at Perona who was enjoying everyone's praise, the kind-hearted Wendy decided to conceal the truth for the time being and let Perona be happy for a while longer.
"Then why did you go out of your way to create a clone?" Zhang Da asked curiously, "Is there a limitation to floating? Do you have to have a clone on the ground?"
"Why is there such a restriction?" Perona rested her chin on her hands, kept crawling in front of Zhang Daye, and swung her legs up and down, wondering why Zhang Daye had such an idea.
"Of course, it's because I've seen such cases." Zhang Da also remembered that Buggy's Four-Split Fruit was that no matter how his body flew around, his feet could not fly.
"And you're too close." Zhang Daye pressed his fingers on Perona's forehead and pushed her away.
"Don't poke me like that, it hurts!" Perona used to float around in spirit form, and it didn't matter if she got closer or even pretended to be someone. But now that she has just learned to fly for a short time, she almost forgot that she is a physical body.
Perona frowned and rubbed her forehead, but immediately became happy again: "As long as I have this trick, I can let my ghost clone , and I will disguise myself as the clone and leave, pretending that I am practicing my abilities!" Perona seemed to see a bright future where she would not have to go to class.
"So this is actually possible~" Zhang Da suddenly realized that the child was getting carried away. He said seriously, "Then I will carefully check whether you are a clone or the real person before class next time."
"No way!" Perona floated back with lifeless eyes. She suddenly realized that she shouldn't have told her black-hearted boss about skipping classes in front of him.
Zhang Da was also reflecting on whether he was too strict. He had a good child, so why was he becoming more and more stupid?
Putting aside Perona's motives, learning new skills is a good thing. Zhang Da also rarely praised her and expressed his affirmation of Perona's hard work.
The after-dinner gathering ended with Shark Chili reminding everyone to "remember to brush your teeth" and everyone returned to their dormitories.
After living in the dormitory for so long, Zhang Da has missed everything he should miss, and he has to admit that the big beds in the Amber and the tavern are still more comfortable to sleep on.
However, one advantage of living in a dormitory is that it is more convenient to do some things.
At midnight, Ye Yan opened his eyes on time and sat up like a corpse: "I still can't sleep through the night."
It is an occupational disease of night watchmen that they become alert in the middle of the night. For a genius among night watchmen like Ye Yan, this disease is incurable.
Before this, every time he woke up, he would choose to go to the training ground to practice with the students - there are always some hardworking students who would rather sleep a few hours less and seize the time to train, and this is even more so after being stimulated by Zhang Daye and others.
So there should be people on the training ground now. Ye Yan has become very familiar with these people, and the students are also happy to watch Ye Yan perform an impromptu performance to relax during their training breaks .
But the situation today was a little different. As soon as Ye Yan sat up, he was hit hard on the head and fell back instantly.
The flag monsters probably received the command that Ye Yan subconsciously gave before he fainted, and one by one they poked their heads out from the Huang Yao Banner.
Zhang Da also made a silent gesture: "None of your business, I'll help him improve his sleep quality. If you have insomnia, you can come to me and give me a hammer, a hammer, a hammer..."
The flag monsters looked at Zhang Da who was also hitting Ye Yan's head hard, and retreated without hesitation. It was a small scene. These two people had been trying to trick each other for a long time, so it was better for them not to get involved.
"Master teased you like that during the day, yet you actually helped him improve his sleep quality. How kind of you!" Sui Feng Er quickly figured out the reason and enthusiastically reminded him before returning to the Huang Yao Banner, "But don't forget that Master is a night watchman and is resistant to stun attacks. If it's just a one-shot hammer, I think about twenty hammers will be enough for him to sleep until dawn."
Zhang Da also gave him a thumbs up, he almost forgot about this matter.
Sui Feng Er smiled and gave a thumbs up.
The other flag monsters looked at Sui Feng Er in shock. When had this kid become so brave, actually daring to team up with others to betray their master? Didn't he know that with our monster status, he would definitely tell on us tomorrow?
Sui Feng Er gave them a contemptuous look and said, "You know shit! I'm saving my master. What if the boss forgets about my master's resistance to stun and has to use a hammer to vent his anger in the end?"
Instead of doing that, it would be better to give him a psychological expectation of twenty hammers in advance, so that the master can suffer fewer hammers. Sui Feng Er has good intentions.
The next morning, when Ye Yan opened his eyes, he saw eight green heads forming a circle in his field of vision.
"Master, you're awake!"
"Hiss~ It hurts, it hurts..." Ye Yan reached out and felt the big bump on his head. "This familiar feeling, it always hits me with a timed hammer!"
"Master, he's been asking me to bring you a message," Suifenger said cautiously. "He said he was using a sneak attack to teach you 'Iron Block Grass,' but unfortunately you couldn't withstand a single blow. So, I'll just go along with it and help you improve your sleep quality."
"I'll improve his uncle's sleep quality!" Ye Yan threw the pillow at Sui Feng'er's face madly. This guy is definitely holding a grudge, right?
Anyway, there will be a way to retaliate sooner or later. No need to be angry, no need to be angry. Ye Yan calmed down and asked, "Where are they?"
Sui Feng Er hugged his pillow and replied, "He went for morning exercise. He always said that he accidentally hit the hammer too hard yesterday. We can't tell when he'll wake up, so we're here to take care of him. Breakfast is here. It's still warm because it's been covered with a thermal cover... This thing keeps warm for a really long time."
Of course, the food plates were also provided by Zhang Da. Although they played around, they still showed the proper care and concern for their companions.
But Ye Yan was a little worried. Could there be a laxative in it? Or maybe too much chili or salt?
…
Ye Yan missed morning exercises today, and when he went to class, several familiar students asked him what happened. Ye Yan gave Zhang Daye a resentful look and said he was not feeling well yesterday.
I don’t know if it’s because I slept enough yesterday, but Ye Yan felt very energetic when he was listening to the class in the morning. Usually he would have fallen asleep at this time, but today he didn’t feel sleepy at all.
But this feeling of being full of energy was really a torture for Ye Yan. He had no interest in what was being said on the stage! Unexpectedly, the revenge would only begin now? It turned out to be mental torture!
Bored Ye Yan stared at Zhang Daye's back and began to daydream.
Zhang Daye felt a chill on his back and felt confused. Who wanted to murder me?
…
Amidst Ye Yan's painful suffering, the morning's cultural course finally ended, and for today's practical class, Zefa invited a heavyweight, Admiral Kizaru.
There are rumors that Zephyr and Kizaru are not on good terms, but that's just a rumor. The two have different ideas at most, and it hasn't risen to the level of discord. Zephyr just doesn't like Kizaru's slightly frivolous tone, but his trust in Kizaru is no less.
"Brother Tatsuya, and everyone from the Amber Tour Group, long time no see~" Kizaru spoke in a slow tone, "It seems your team is getting bigger and bigger~"
Zhang Da also smiled and said, "It's been a long time since we last met. I haven't had time to congratulate you on your promotion to general."
"Well, it's okay if you don't congratulate me." Kizaru said, "Anyway..."
"Borsalino." Zefa signaled him to think it over before speaking. It would be best not to say anything inappropriate in front of so many students.
"...Being an admiral only means more responsibility on your shoulders. It doesn't matter whether you congratulate me or not." Kizaru still knows how to say nice things, but he changed the subject. "Speaking of which, those bottles of wine you gave me were really nice."
"I'm glad you like it." Zhang Da said with some regret, "Actually, I saw a very exquisite set of nail clippers when I was in Shampoo Land before. It was said to be a limited edition. Unfortunately, I didn't buy it at that time. When I went back later, it had already been bought by someone else. Otherwise, I would have given it to you."
"Is this what you are talking about? I have asked someone to buy it back. I didn't expect that Brother Tatsuya would also be interested in this." Kizaru took out a small box from his pocket and opened it. Inside was a series of tools including nail clippers, nail files, sharp ingrown toenail pliers, etc., a total of eighteen pieces, neatly arranged and shining silver, and it seemed that they were preserved with great care.
As for why it ended up in Kizaru's hands... Major General Kadaru from the Sabaody Naval Base was his direct subordinate, so helping him buy this little thing was nothing.
"That's it. So you already got it." Zhang Da thought about it and said, "I'll find you a better one next time."
He planned to go to Wano Country and ask Teacher Gai to customize a set of nail clippers made of seastone when he was able to fight the Four Emperors alone, so that Kizaru could save some Armament Haki when trimming his nails.
Speaking of this, he had never seen how Weiwei cut her nails before, so he was a little curious.
Kizaru put away the nail clipper set and said, "Then I'll be looking forward to it."
Zefa listened to the two people talking about some strange topics with a frown on his face, and couldn't help but remind them: "It's almost time to start."
If you don't get to the point, the students will almost think your code name is Yellow Ape or Yellow Nail.
"Oh, sorry, I'm here to give a lecture. Let's talk later." In fact, Kizaru thought it was a good idea to just have a whole class like this. Not only would it save energy, but it would also allow the students to understand that the admirals are just ordinary people. This might increase the cohesion within the navy.
"So what are we going to talk about? Six Styles? Swordsmanship? Or ability development?"
Most ordinary students feel that Admiral Kizaru has too much to teach and are seriously thinking about what to teach.
But Zhang Da also directly thought that Kizaru was providing options to everyone, and chose D among the three options ABC.
"How about we talk about kicking skills? The Lieutenant General has taught us all the above, but kicking skills are rarely mentioned."
Xia Lulu glanced at Zhang Daye. He actually still remembered this incident.
Zhang Da also smiled. He was serious about working for the benefit of his own people. Besides, there were many people in the training camp who liked to use their legs, so he wasn't doing anything to benefit himself at the expense of others.
"Kicking skills... Actually, I'm not very good at it..."
"However, it would be a good idea to take this opportunity to talk about my fighting philosophy." Kizaru turned into a golden light and instantly appeared next to a wooden stake used for training.
"Speed..." The slender leg kicked out, and the center of the wooden stake instantly exploded into pieces. Only then did the second half of Kizaru's words reach everyone's ears, "...that is power."
