The Zephyr instructor stood before them and explained the details, "The next task will be battle assessment.
Since this is the first day, I will have to assess your combat skills, strength, and standards before devising a battle method tailor-made for
You."
Just as Zephyr finished his speech, several Marine officers came forward and told them to form a line.
Then, all the recruits were asked to fight them.
Undoubtedly, those officers were quite strong, personally trained by
Instructor Zephyr. They began to test the recruits' combat power by fighting against them.
Blaize and Gion are able to fight officers equally and are considered good but
Vergo and Shuzo are able to defeat the officers.
After the assessment, the recruits were divided into three groups - Garde 1, Grade 2, and
Grade 3 from strong to weak.
Blaize was placed in Class 1 along with Vergo, Shuzo, Gion, and other recruits. All twenty recruits in Class 1 looked at each other while remembering those faces.
Days passed, intensive daily training followed to strengthen their physical bodies while they were beaten daily by the more powerful Marine officers.
There are no exceptions, not even Blaize,
Vergo, Gion are also included.
---
Six months passed, and,
Garp left the Island right after they arrived weakly and Blaize had never seen him again since.
Finishing his daily One-punch man training at the training ground, he was slightly breathless while sweat covered his face.
Next, he had to complete 1000 punches and kicks. At first, they were difficult to complete but gradually became a routine for him.
[- Name: Blaize Hunt
Occupation: Marine
Constitution: 14.8 [Strength: 14.9, Speed: 14.7]
Potential Devil Fruit: 14.7
Haki: There is none
Items in storage: None
Free attribute points: 0 -]
His strength reached a bottleneck for a few days, now he regretted not saving a few attribute points for free.
If he had, he could easily cross this line.
In fact, he completed quite a number of tasks within this six-month period.
For example, when he first challenged Vergo, Gion, Shuzo, and other recruits. That was also the way he crossed the '10 line!.
But lately, the system has not given him any task. So his power stopped around the boundary of the "15 bar!
In addition to training his body, he also studied the abilities of his demonic fruit. Possibly, the strength of his demon fruit would reach a new stage after he crossed the bar '20 boundary.
At that moment, Gion walked towards him after finishing his daily practice. They became friends because they were in the same class and fought each other in the combat class.
Not just Gion, Blaize was familiar with everyone in the same class even
Vergo. In fact, Vergo is the type of leader in their class with his friendly and approachable character.
He does not reveal his true nature to others. Even if he did, no one would believe him without sufficient evidence.
He also did not care because his current priority was to increase his strength
If there was a chance, he would take care of it in the future.
"Blaize, finish your daily training?"
Gion sat nearby and wiped the sweat off his hourglass body. Her skin was smooth and charming, soaked in sweat.
"Yes" Blaize replied as she looked at Gion.
She was young, beautiful and most importantly, quite strong.
Although she was a woman, her physical strength was slightly stronger than her, Blaize could only defeat her in terms of fighting skills. "Are you going to take that assessment? I heard it's hard enough to kill the animals on the island." asked Gion.
"Yes" replied Blaise. The appraisal that Gion was talking about was hunting animals by traveling to a very dangerous Island located several kilometers north of them.
The island is similar to Rusukaina, a prehistoric island that housed many extinct animals. No weak animals live there.
Even the innocuous-looking rabbit on the island was extremely powerful and could defeat pirates under 50 million in rewards.
It said some of the strong on the Island were as powerful as the Vice Admiral
Headquarters. With Blaize's current strength, he would be crushed with a single blow.
His judgment was very simple: Survive for two days inside the Island and kill a creature. It doesn't matter if they are strong or not. In essence, they must bring the carcass to the beach.
If the Marine recruits are able to do that, Instructor Zephyr will teach them Rokushiki. Of course, most of the island is under surveillance. If anything happens, they will be saved before they lose their little lives.
Anyone can follow the assessment but not mandatory. If you take part and pass the assessment, you will learn 'Rokushiki'.
Blaize had to acknowledge the training method
Zephyr is really good. Appraisal rewards not only encourage the stronger but also the weaker. "What about you?" ask Blaize
Gion.
"I will participate. I think everyone in our class will join"
"Yes. With your strength, it won't be a problem for you to survive and kill creatures." Blaise laughs.
"Don't flatter me. In our group, only Vergo and Shuzo can fight you in the same place."
Blaize shook his head and said, "Although that's the case, I'm very weak."
"Why do you want to be stronger?" ask Gion curiously.
He had noticed Blaize from the start, he trained twice as hard as the others, he was gifted with good combat skills but he still said he was weak.
"For I can do whatever I want. Only the strong decide the rules in the world." Blaize answered but
Gion did not understand a single word.
Blaize shook his head. He was of the earth and his vision was very different from that of an ordinary person. The thought of meeting a legendary character alone had already made his blood boil in excitement.
He wanted to challenge all the strongest people and experience their strength. He could tell his mentality changed once he moved as if he was born to fight
He was not a battle maniac but the thrill of defeating the strongest character he had just watched on screen was different and fun.
On the day he met GARP he confirmed this. And also, only by fighting stronger opponents could he increase his strength quickly.
That's why after studying
Rokushiki, he plans to leave the training camp. Only at sea, he could meet and fight stronger opponents.
Although he was looking for a stronger opponent, Blaize was not stupid. He could not hope to defeat characters like Whitebeard, Kaido, Big Mom, and other powerful characters with his current minuscule strength.
