Chapter 86 Mission Part 1

A few days later, Rowen found himself in a small courtyard.

Zephyr held the Armament Haki training book that Rowen had gotten from the Queen and read it carefully. 

After a long time, he closed the book and nodded: “As expected of a strong person who has broken through the New World. This training method and the insights in it can be directly compared with our training insights. As long as someone’s physical strength keeps up with this process then awakening Armament Haki will be a matter of course!”

Although no one in Huadu West Island (Flower Capital) had mastered Haki but with the national strength of Huadu West Island (Flower Capital), they have more than enough capital and strength to acquire a copy of the Armament Haki training method which includes the insights of awakening it and many small insights in training it.

After all, this kind of stuff is everywhere in the New World and it is not a secret treasure for any single person or organization. 

And Armament Haki isn’t just about Awakening it and using it to instantly become strong in this world. What is more precious is not the way to awaken Haki but the difficulty of training in and taking it to the next level. 

Taking General Jade as an example. He is physically strong enough to learn Haki, but he had put all of his focus and talent upon the Variant of Gyojin Karate(Fish-Man Karate)- Wind Treading Class, and he has no knowledge about Haki.

Having said that, Zephyr looked at Rowen with a smirk and the corners of his mouth hooked up into a smile: “You got around the Military Merits restrictions, you really are quite daring!”

The Military Merits of Marines only restricts Zephyr from privately teaching Rowen anything about Haki, but if Rowen finds the Haki Practice method by himself then the Marines can not say that he is not allowed to learn. 

They had thought that Rowen had done enough on Huadu West Island (Flower Capital). He teamed up with the Queen to turn Fred and Garp around and wipe out the Baroque Work agency but Zephyr didn’t expect that his real focus was on this!

Rowen was sitting in a rocking chair enjoying his tea, which was a pound of tea he had gotten as a gift from Kizaru.

The Admirals couldn’t come that night because of their status, but they all sent gifts. Even Akainu, who has the most microaggressions against Rowen, sent a painting …… 

Rowen’s future is clearly visible to everyone and everyone can tell that he had the most likely chance in becoming an Admiral and Akainu wants to become the Fleet Admiral so pulling Rowen to his side is inevitable. They would have to work together in the future.

And with Kizaru’s persona, drinking tea, reading newspapers, and manicure are three essential he needs so sent one of the three to Rowen.

It is worth mentioning that Caesar also wanted to come over and get close to Rowen at the time but then Kizaru said that he was not going and would be supervising Caesar experimenting with the Device all night.

Hearing Zephyr’s evaluation, Rowen laughed and said: “In this way, even if I go out in the future, I can practice Armament Haki alone and when you put together the Observation Haki’s practice notes and experience then I will have nothing to worry about!”

Because of the War against several members of the Allied Kingdom Member Noble, Huadu West Island (Flower Capital) fought for several months and the remuneration they have promised to Rowen got delayed again and again, until now. 

But it can’t be said that it was useless. After all, General Jade was able to change Gyojin Karate (Fish-Man Karate) to another version for Rosa so he naturally did his best to recall his experience and put it on the book. 

Rowen had heard that he returned to Fish-Man Island for this. The arrival of this experience can save Zephyr a lot of time, and he can start the practice faster.

As he was thinking, the wind blew in his ear. Rowen closed his eyes and grabbed the practice book in his hand.

“You kid, don’t be overly ambitious, whether it’s Armament Haki or Observation Haki, it’s not so easy to awaken them.”

Zephyr glared at Rowen and said, “In this month’s spare time, you should first memorize the remaining three practice methods of Rokushiki, learn as much as you can, and only learn Wind Treading Class of Gyojin Karate(Fish-Man Karate) to familiarize yourself with the power of different systems. The first thing you need to do is to get your hands on Life Return (Seimei Kikan). Awakening your Haki would be easy once you can control the Life Return(Seimei Kikan)!

As the one-year deadline approached, Zephyr became more and more nervous. He didn’t know whether Rowen would still have the terrifying growth rate after the expiration date the Scientist has given them. 

(The One Year Effect- I mentioned it in the starting chapters when Rowen joined the Marines but here is a reminder- When Rowen first got into the Marine Headquarters, the Scientist said that his body is adapting for some reason and he would be able to recover from the worst of wounds by eating food and he will also have a minor healing factor but this effect would only last for one year, according to them)

He could only do cramming teaching, squeeze in everything he could teach, and let Rowen slowly digested and absorbed.

Among them, Life Return (Seimei Kikan) is the second path he prepared for Rowen.

Rokushiki Esoterics·Life Return (Seimei Kikan) is a thoroughly cheat skill.

It allows the controller to control every cell in their body, even the hair!

However, the ability to block blood flow and control wound contraction is actually an inferior ability of Semie Kikan. 

The real point is that as long as you learn Life Return (Seimei Kikan), you can learn everything quickly, and it can be called the Changing Muscles Scripture of One Piece World!

As long as he learns this magical skill, Rowen will not instantly turn from being a genius to a useless person even if his One Year effect expires.

“I naturally know this, but I have another purpose. I have to learn Haki first… If I can’t learn Haki then I must at least learn the Wind Treading Class of Gyojin Karate (Fish-Man Karate)!”

Rowen, unaware of his situation, explained while spitting out a name at Zephyr’s puzzled gaze, “Baroque Works!”

“Hmm?!”

Zephyr frowned in surprise.
