Chapter 92 Disturbance Part 1
With Dante out of the way, Rowen arrives in the Training Room situated at the lowest level of the Battleship.
This Training room is made out of pure steel, and the walls of this room are riddled with irregular bullet-hole-like transmitters, this environment is enough to send a Panic-terror victim into a coma.
Due to the limitation of the Battleship area, Rowen can only do some basic training during his time on the ship, and the extensive wide range attack moves of his Devil Fruit cannot be developed in-depth.
His training with Armament Haki needs more combat cooperation, so he can only train Observation Haki and Marine Rokushiki here.
This Training Room was specially modified for practicing Observation Haki. For this reason, he dismantled the Cannon Shell Device in the underground training room of the Recruit Camp and installed it here in half a month.
But because there are no qualified scientists on the ship, the distribution of bullet holes after moving was irregular, and the arrangement of the holes looked as if it had been chewed through by a dog.
Rowen can only praise Vegapunk in his heart seeing that this device is still operatable even if it is messed up!
“Let’s do it!”
Pressing the start switch, Rowen discarded his cloak and suit and stood in the middle of the field with only a pair of shorts on his body. Afterward, he picked up the sweat-soaked cloth strip on the ground and wrapped it around his eyes.
Suddenly, his vision was completely obscured, and the scene in front of his eyes was pitch black. Rowen could only use his memory to determine his position.
“Di Di, Starting!”
An emotionless synthetic sound reverberated in Rowen’s ears, and in the next moment, small Cannon Shells bounced out of the launcher one by one.
Kami-e (Paper Drawing)!
Hearing the sound of the wind, Rowen used nothing but Kami-e (Paper Drawing), which is somewhat similar to Observation Haki.
He sinks his mind and works hard to perceive the changes in airflow through his skin. His body became soft as if it was boneless and as light as a feather as he worked hard to avoid the coming small Cannon Shells.
Boom…
As the number of Cannon shells increases, the Cannon Shells continue to collide with each other and deviate from the established route.
This caused great difficulty for Rowen as he could not just guess their path according to the holes they come out of and an out-of-control Cannon Shell bounced up and hit him on the nose, causing Rowen to tilt his head back.
In order to add pressure to himself, he replaced the original small steel balls with rubber balls.
For Logia Ability Users, steel is the least threatening thing. Moreover, the rubber ball is full of elasticity and will not stop jumping immediately after impact, and it is more difficult to judge the flight trajectory of rubber balls when rebounding.
“I can’t catch an inspiration!”
Rowen tried his best to dodge while carefully comprehending the slightest Tremor coming from the air.
His persistent training did not allow him to easily master the Observation Haki but he did achieve rapid progress in Kami-e (Paper Drawing) under this constant pressure.
“What am I missing?”
A rubber ball coming forward at 45° angel, at his underarm ……
Rowen raises his hand and avoids it.
Another coming from behind him at 120° angle, at his heart ……
Rowen steps sideways to avoid it.
Another rubber ball coming from the side at a 180° angle …… Nope! It bounced off!
Rowen suddenly stopped his dodging motion and bent his knees. The two rubber balls that collided with each other broke away from their established flight path at the same time and came straight towards his face. Rowen just squatted at this moment to avoid the impact.
“No! There’s more!”
Rowen’s scalp suddenly tightened, and a number of mysterious touches appeared in his mind, allowing him to clearly “see” everything in his surroundings.
The two rubber balls flying over his head crossed and collided again, and the slower one was carried by the companion of inertia after the impact as it turned around and came towards his back again.
What the hell, isn’t this similar to the Uchiha Shuriken throwing technique?
The corner of Rowen’s eyes twitched as his bent knees filled with strength, and he gave a light jump.
Boom!
The rubber ball hit the ground, leaping across the floor like a rock hitting the water, and finally hit the wall before it stopped moving.
Dang! Thud! Boom!
But at this time, because his body was floating in the air, the rubber balls slammed into his body one by one, making a muffled noise on his body.
“Sure enough, that peculiar tactile sensation just now should be the effect of Observation Haki, but the sound generated by the body movement once again interrupted my perception!”
Thinking of this, Rowen ripped off the black cloth in front of his eyes and entwine up a palpitating high voltage current around his body.
Zī Zī Zī Zī…Bang!!
An invisible surge of power erupted, and the rubber balls with Sub-Ejection speed couldn’t get close to his body and they were forced to stay in the air.
Seizing the opportunity, Rowen used Blink and went to the door control Device, h opened the protective cover and pressed the stop button.
Buzz!!
“…The training is over, the hit rate is 0.3%…”
Rowen: “…”
Because this Device was “Stolen”, Rowen didn’t dare to take it out and show it to the others so no one knew how to change the voice that came with the Device, and it has continued to the present.
This 0.3 hit rate is estimated to be the result of the collision and damage of the rubber ball…
“Che! I will call the Teacher tomorrow and ask him about this. I have already touched the threshold but I can’t maintain the effect with my body… I won’t be able to use this level of Observation Haki in a battle!”
Rowen had an irritable expression on his face as he smoothed out his hair.
…
It was night, Water Seven Tavern Street.
Due to the arrival of the Headquarters Marine, some areas of the island are more lively than ever. The Pirates and the Criminals only dared to hide in the tavern and the casino, waiting for the Marines to leave.
Their situation is quite similar to Cats catching Mice.
This is the nature of things, no matter how arrogant a pirate is, after seeing the terrible War Behemoth, it would be difficult for them to bring up the courage to face the Headquarters Marines in a head-on battle.
