"21,000 military merits... The total bounty for all the crew members of the Jack Pirates is probably a little over 200 million. It seems to be based on the World Government's bounty."
Ron walked out of the affairs office, stroking his chin in thought.
At the Navy Headquarters, one can be promoted to major with 2,000 military merit, lieutenant colonel with 5,000 military merit, colonel with 10,000 military merit, and major general can be promoted to 30,000 military merit.
This also means that if Ron applies directly for the graduation examination, he will become a colonel in his headquarters if he passes the graduation examination. If he gets another 9,000 military merits, he will become a major general if he passes the graduation examination.
It seems very easy, but in fact it is very difficult to obtain military merits in the navy. Once you become a formal navy, even if you defeat a group of pirates alone, the military merits obtained will be distributed in proportion to the subordinates you lead, and cannot be obtained individually. of.
Only the recruits are different.
Recruits in the new barracks have special privileges in obtaining military merits, that is, military merits completed alone do not need to be distributed with anyone else.
If Ron were the major general leading the army and defeated the Jack Pirates, he would probably only be able to get 14,000 points of the 21,000 military merit points, and one-third would be evenly distributed to subordinates at all levels.
"Let's find an opportunity to collect another 9,000 military merits."
Ron was not in a hurry to apply for early graduation. After learning about some of the conditions and distribution of military merit, he thought it would be more cost-effective to collect 30,000 military merit before applying for graduation.
The rank of Major General is second, but the key is 30,000 military merit. At the Navy Headquarters, you can exchange it for a Devil Fruit. Although it is only the most common animal type, to Ron, it doesn't matter what the Devil Fruit's ability is.
For him, it's all about improvement.
After leaving the Navy Headquarters, Ron flew towards the coast.
After reaching 100 points of mental power, Ron has become more and more proficient in the use of mental power. Basically, he no longer needs to rely on his physical body to perform any movements. Even walking has begun to be replaced by flying.
In addition to flying, Ron also mastered the spiral nature in the use and development of mental power, which can create a constantly rotating mental barrier on the body surface.
The mental power, toughness and strength of rotation are better than that of a straight line.
Compared with the magic barrier, the mental barrier is more flexible and has no blind spots in all directions. Although the defense is not as good as the magic barrier, it can at least withstand the next level of magic. Ordinary fire bullets will also be shot at this mental barrier. Just bounce out.
And the key point is that this move is purely the use of mental power and has no conflict with magic. It can be used at the same time as magic.
In other words, if encountering a difficult battle, Ron can first use Stoneskin, then open the mental barrier, and when encountering a powerful attack, he can also open the magic barrier.
With three layers of shields superimposed, it would be impossible for an ordinary lieutenant general to attack him head-on and kill him instantly or severely damage him with one blow.
in addition.
Ron's in-depth study of wind magic has also led to the development of auxiliary wind magic that can increase the speed of movement. With his mental power increased to 100 points, his flying speed is extremely fast, even without using heavy pressure. With this technique, no ordinary major general would be able to catch up with him using his moon steps.
After all, Yuebu relies on his strong body to forcefully step into the air, not the real ability to fly. The focus is on flexibility rather than speed. The speed of moving with feet on the air is naturally much slower than the speed of using feet on the ground.
On the ground, Ron's speed is far inferior to that of the lieutenant general, and even the major general is faster than him, but in the air, combined with the heavy pressure technique, Ron estimates that even the lieutenant general of his headquarters wants to chase him with the moon step. I'm afraid it's also extremely difficult.
Facing a lieutenant general who has no flying ability, even if he can't win, he can still protect himself.
This is the confidence that Ron has today.
In fact, with Ron's elemental affinity, he is not so afraid even when faced with the threat of Doflamingo, because he can enter the sea, but Doflamingo cannot.
Unless he encounters Doflamingo on an island and has no time to escape to the seaside, if he goes to the bottom of the sea, no matter how strong Doflamingo is, he will not be able to get to the bottom of the sea.
only…
Even if you can protect yourself, if you encounter one, you will be driven to the bottom of the sea. It will always be very embarrassing, and it really damages the pride and dignity of the magician.
Standing in the sky with a wand in hand, Doflamingo instantly turned into powder with one blow... That was his goal.
Thinking of this, Ron's thoughts couldn't help but wander.
After a while, Ron came back to his senses. With a thought, he called up the achievement system and switched to the achievement interface.
Because some achievements on the achievement interface will only appear if certain conditions are met, Ron will come to take a look from time to time to prevent some achievements worth doing from being ignored.
"Huh."
At first glance this time, Ron was a little surprised and noticed that there was an additional 'Admiral' achievement on the achievement interface, and the condition was to become an admiral-level officer.
"Then it seems that it is just right to graduate with the rank of major general, and you can also achieve an achievement by the way."
After being slightly surprised, Ron smiled.
His total achievement points now are 62.
When his mental power exceeded 100 points, his total achievement points were 54 points. After the breakthrough, he first mastered third-level magic and obtained the 'Magic Master' achievement with 3 achievement points.
The previous killing of the Jack Pirates had achieved four achievements at once.
[First appearance: Killing a pirate with a bounty of more than 30 million Baileys for the first time]
[Getting famous: Killing a pirate with a bounty of more than 100 million beli for the first time]
[Excessive force: Destroy a medium-sized or larger ship]
[Sword and Magic I: Kill a Swordsman with Magic]
These four achievements brought Ron a total of 5 achievement points, of which 'Become Famous' was 2 points, and the others were all 1 point, and the last two were things Ron had not seen on the achievement interface before. hidden achievements.
In addition, the last two previously hidden achievements are not single. They are both series achievements. Among them, there are "just itchy hands" and "destructive mania" after "excessive force". The conditions to achieve them are to destroy ten medium-sized ships respectively. At least one of the above ships was a large sailing ship, and thirty medium-sized or larger ships were destroyed, at least three of which were large sailing ships.
There is also 'Sword and Magic II' above 'Sword and Magic I', and the requirement is to kill a great swordsman... This is not within the scope of Ron's consideration for the time being.
He was not even sure about the criteria for judging a great swordsman.
The foil sword Bista of the Whitebeard Pirates seems to be only judged as a powerful swordsman, not a great swordsman. Only Hawkeye is clearly judged as a great swordsman, and there are only a handful of other characters who can be judged as great swordsmen. number.
Hawkeye is a far stronger and more troublesome existence than Doflamingo, and except for Hawkeye, the others who can be called great swordsmen are also the top strong men in the sea.
Today's Ron cannot reach that area.
Ron's current goal is to continue to obtain as many achievement points as possible, and to explore the third-level magic of the fire and earth systems, and the second-level magic of the guardian system as soon as possible to fill this gap.
Among them, the second-level magic of the guardian system has the highest priority.
The reason is that third-level wind magic is too powerful and takes a long time to release. Even if third-level fire magic is developed, it may be difficult to form combined magic like first- and second-level magic.
If combined magic cannot be formed, then the actual significance of exploring third-level fire magic is not very great, and the improvement in strength is very small.
On the contrary, for the guardian system, if second-level magic can be explored, the improvement will definitely be obvious.
