After the actual combat assessment, Roja went home directly.
He is not interested in the results and rankings. It's not that Roja is a saint who is completely indifferent to fame and fortune, but... he can guess the rankings and results this time. Besides, this is just the ranking of an ordinary battalion. There is nothing worth paying attention to.
At this time, Luo Ya was staying alone in his room, sitting cross-legged with the famous sword Yanyue on his knees, bowing his head and thinking in thought.
although.
This time in the actual combat assessment, he was almost sweeping and killing all the way, unstoppable, but this did not make Roja so proud that he lost his mind and reason.
The reason why he can show such dominance is because the forest environment is too suitable for his abilities. If it were in an open place, with the level of flames he could release now, he would not be able to ignite such a spectacular sea of fire.
certainly.
These things are not nutritious to think about, they just flash in Roja's mind. Roja is more concerned about some of the problems he himself experienced in this battle.
For example, there are no specific moves, and the swordsmanship is disorganized, relying entirely on the ability of flames, or relying on the sharpness of Yan Yue to chop randomly.
Of course, there is no problem in dealing with ferocious beasts, but if you are facing a swordsman who is proficient in swordsmanship and a physical expert with flexible body who can avoid flames, it will be completely different.
"Moves are very important. From the current perspective, in terms of fire-type abilities, there are only two practical moves." Roja recalled the previous battle process in the actual combat assessment and summarized it a little.
One sword style and cremation!
This is the most basic and simplest. Use one move with all your strength to slash at will, and swing the maximum flame out from the front, like a flaming sword energy.
Flame sword and torch!
This move is half offensive and half defensive. After sweeping the sword, a curtain of fire will be ignited all around, blocking the enemy from outside or inside.
A simpler explanation is that Itto-ryu Cremation attacks one point, while Torch attacks one side, each with its own advantages and disadvantages.
Various other moves are basically extended from these two moves, including flowing fire that splits and releases flame bombs, etc.
Apart from these two flame-based swordsmanship moves, Roja has no other tricks that he can use. In terms of pure swordsmanship, even the simplest and most basic slashes like Ittou style and Iai slash, he now uses Also not skilled enough.
"This time we were fighting against ferocious beasts in a forest environment, and we had every advantage. If we were fighting against humans, combat experience and moves would be very important when the flames could not directly kill the opponent."
In the previous month, Roja basically spent all his energy on physical training, and never conducted combat training with Garp.
Now, he no longer needs to focus all his energy on physical fitness, but can spare part of his time to hone his combat experience and sword skills.
However, after thinking about it, Roja suddenly showed a look of helplessness.
"Having said that, wouldn't it be a bit cruel to fight against Garp?"
When he thought of training against Garp, Roja's mind couldn't help but picture the scene where he was beaten away by Garp's iron fist using various postures.
The more he thought about it, the more he became confused. Roja decisively stopped his random thoughts.
call!
He exhaled helplessly, and when Roja was thinking about how to find a way not to be abused, the door to his room was suddenly pushed open with a clang.
"Uncle Garp, can you knock on the door before you come in?!"
Roja looked at Garp with a dark look. This way of suddenly barging in without knocking on the door, if he was doing some kind of hand training, wouldn't it be too late to hide him
Seeing, hearing, and being domineering is a good thing and must be learned as early as possible.
Sighing helplessly, Roja stood up, spread his hands towards Garp and said, "If anything happens, just ask me out."
Garp folded his hands on his chest, grinned, and said, "Because I want to give you a surprise."
“…”
Roja almost fell down.
Fortunately, I have long been accustomed to Garp's out-of-the-box personality. It was a good thing that he didn't break the door directly and walked in, Roja thought in his mind.
"Because you brat got a ridiculously high score, which affected your team's performance in the entire camp. Coupled with some other accidents, this actual combat assessment will not be used as the final selection for promotion to the elite camp."
Garp folded his hands on his chest, stood in front of Roja and said nonchalantly: "So, based on this result, we will conduct another full-battalion battle assessment one month to sort out the overall ranking of the ordinary battalion. .”
Roja has long been designated as Zefa's disciple, so Garp naturally doesn't care about this kind of battle assessment.
After saying this, Garp suddenly scratched his head again, looking as if he had forgotten something.
"Is there anything else...ah, I remembered it."
As if he suddenly remembered it, Garp reached into his arms, took out a pamphlet, and threw it towards Roja.
"this is for you."
Roja listened there for a long time and didn't care much about the battle assessment in a month. The promotion selection of the elite camp was no longer something he paid attention to. When the time came, he would casually participate and educate those who looked down on him before. Just recruits.
But it was the pamphlet that Garp suddenly threw over that made Roja's eyes flash with a strange color.
Reaching out casually, Roja grabbed the pamphlet in his hand.
After Garp saw Roya catching the booklet, he smiled and turned around and left Roya's room.
Roja held this unknown booklet and thought of what Garp had just said about giving him a surprise. He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and put the booklet in front of his eyes to look through it.
"This is really a surprise..."
This booklet is the essence of swordsmanship extracted from the Navy Headquarters database after sorting out and streamlining the huge swordsmanship information!
Affiliated to the World Government that has ruled the world for eight hundred years, the Navy's intelligence and data system is unmatched by almost any private organization.
The internal information of the navy, such as this kind of swordsmanship, must be a collection of the insights, notes, etc. of countless powerful swordsmen, and this book "Essentials of Swordsmanship" is undoubtedly derived from that huge amount of information. The most concise part extracted from .
Garp himself is not proficient in swordsmanship, but this does not mean that Garp cannot teach Roya swordsmanship. His status in the navy is so high that he can naturally take out this information easily!
This information is exactly what Roja needs.
For Roja, it is his very clear goal to wield the ability to wield the Blade of Fire or even the residual fire sword as soon as possible. On the basis of cultivating and strengthening the soul of the sword, practicing swordsmanship is undoubtedly the most beneficial. of.
Although this book on the essence of swordsmanship extracts the essence of swordsmanship and intercepts the most concise and concise parts for summary and recording, it is still detailed beyond Roja's expectation. It is even written by a great swordsman at the top of the swordsmanship. The realms are all recorded, but they are not complete enough.
Roja directly skipped those things that he didn't need or didn't pay much attention to, and directly found the things he wanted to know most at the moment.
Today's Roja can only be regarded as an ordinary swordsman. Although he has the ability to add fire damage similar to that of a sword, he cannot be called a true swordsman, let alone a great swordsman.
This essence of swordsmanship clearly points out the difference between ordinary swordsmen and swordsmen.
Swordsman.
It is better to say it is a state than a realm.
If an ordinary swordsman wants to become a swordsman, the first threshold is to understand the 'breath of all things'. This is the most basic state that every swordsman possesses.
Roja, who is familiar with the plot of the original work, is still very impressed by the term "breath of all things". In the original work, Sauron understood the so-called "breath of all things" when he defeated the killers of Baroque Co., Ltd. and beheaded those with fruit abilities. ’, only to defeat it.
For a swordsman, even if he does not use armed haki, he can easily cut through steel with an ordinary rusty iron sword. This is an insurmountable gap in realm between ordinary swordsmen. !
