Chapter 11
Rayleigh's scalp tingled
Swish!
The senses are perfectly aligned, achieving perfect harmony in an instant.
A completely new perceptual ability was born, allowing one to keenly sense everything around them.
Air, soil, insects, animals, plants...
Ordinary things, perceived through the senses of sight and hearing, seem to come alive and become vibrant.
For the first-class standard.
It seems that only at this moment did he truly "open his eyes".
"I've mastered the basics of Observation Haki."
Junichi let out a long breath, experiencing the strange sensation of Observation Haki.
He clearly didn't see it.
However, things outside of sight are miraculously visualized in the mind.
And they are lifelike, with distinct states.
"Twenty meters?"
Junichi sensed the range of his Observation Haki and nodded in agreement.
Everything within a 20-meter radius centered on him was perceived by him.
This distance is quite good for someone who is just starting out with Observation Haki.
There is room for further improvement.
"System, open my current panel," Junichi silently instructed himself.
bass!
[Note: Skill levels are: Beginner, Proficient, Expert, Master, and Transcendent!]
-
At the very end of the skill list, two new skills were added: [Armament Haki] and [Observation Haki].
Both are beginner level.
"Beginner level, maximum proficiency is 100." Junichi thought to himself, "Improving isn't difficult."
"I should be able to reach 100 soon."
Then, progress from beginner to expert level.
Thinking like that.
Junichi stood up and walked into the island's forest.
With his Observation Haki and Armament Haki, he was able to act more freely and venture a little deeper into the area.
He made this move.
Underwater, Rayleigh, who was constantly monitoring Junichi's situation, immediately noticed it.
"What are they trying to do?"
Rayleigh gripped a small sea king, his five fingers like steel hooks, tightly holding the sea king's head.
But Rayleigh's attention was no longer on the sea king.
His Observation Haki allowed him to sense the change in Quasi-One's position.
They actually headed towards the interior of the island.
"Have you lost your mind?" Rayleigh's expression changed slightly. "Even with awakened Armament Haki, it's not enough to ensure safe movement on the island!"
The animals on the island are exceptionally fierce.
Junichi's newly awakened Armament Haki could barely cover his fist.
What kind of attacks can it withstand?
"This kid, could he be trying to force me to master Observation Haki by threatening me with wild beasts?" Rayleigh's expression turned somewhat panicked at the thought.
He quickly swam to the surface and hurriedly went ashore.
He casually tossed the sea kings onto the shore.
"not good!"
As soon as Rayleigh stepped ashore, his expression changed again.
His Observation Haki detected that Junichi had entered a group of wild beasts.
"Something terrible is about to happen!"
Rayleigh's eyes turned serious, and he stomped his legs on the ground at an extremely fast speed.
Swish!
He shot out like lightning.
This is an imitation of the high-speed movement technique of "shaving".
The Six Techniques are so powerful that almost any strong fighter would secretly learn a few moves to use.
……
in the forest.
Zhunyi stopped and looked around.
squeak...
One by one, strong, muscular monkeys appeared among the branches and leaves.
They stared at Zhunyi with malicious eyes.
It was as if Junichi was seen as prey.
"A carnivorous monkey?"
Zhun Yi raised an eyebrow slightly, completely unconcerned about the dangerous situation he was in.
According to his Observation Haki, there were even more monkeys hiding in the darkness around him.
There are at least fifty of them.
"If it were before, being surrounded by you guys would have left me badly injured, if not dead," Junichi said with a faint smile, his expression nonchalant. "But unfortunately, I just learned dual-color Haki."
"It's your turn to suffer."
As he spoke, Zhunyi raised his hand and gave the middle finger.
squeak! !
Although the monkeys did not understand hand gestures, they were enraged by Zhunyi's provocation.
Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!
Several strong male monkeys leaped down and fiercely pounced on Zhunyi.
"Sigh, I missed."
"Missing."
"Almost."
Zhunyi dodged left and right with ease, avoiding the attacks of the monkeys one by one.
This made the monkey troop even angrier.
squeak!squeak!squeak!
They jumped down in droves, all rushing towards Zhunyi.
"Oops, almost there again."
"That was close!"
"Luckily I dodged quickly, or I would have been caught."
Junichi taunted with a grin.
But no matter which direction the monkeys attacked from, he seemed to have eyes in the back of his head, calmly dodging them.
Outside the forest.
Rayleigh stopped in his tracks, stunned, and stared blankly at the scene.
"Observation Haki?!"
His expression was blank.
Junichi's ability to effortlessly dodge the monkey's attacks from all angles can only be explained by one thing... he has mastered Observation Haki!
But how long has it been?
"Only twenty minutes?" Rayleigh mentally calculated the time, and his scalp began to tingle. "Twenty minutes to learn Observation Haki?"
"Isn't this a bit too outrageous?"
"Shouldn't this boy's personality be stuck at the 'relaxation' step for a long time?"
Rayleigh felt that he had suffered a great mental shock.
Junichi defied his experience once again, mastering a second domineering power in a short period of time, contrary to common sense.
He couldn't help but doubt whether his experience was outdated and no longer applicable.
Otherwise, why would it repeatedly fail on aspiring teenagers?
……
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
Zhunyi's skillful evasion kept the monkeys missing their targets.
The already enraged monkeys became even more irrational, their movements becoming chaotic and disorderly, resulting in them colliding with each other.
Squeak squeak squeak!!
Before Junichi could do anything, they started fighting each other.
"Tsk tsk tsk, as expected of beasts..." Junichi shook his head and said with a sneer, "I deliberately provoked you to work harder, but you ended up causing chaos among yourselves."
"You've gone too far," Rayleigh's voice drifted over.
Junichi was not surprised; his Observation Haki had already detected Rayleigh's arrival.
Hearing the voice, he greeted with a smile, "You're back, Mr. Rayleigh."
"Alright, stop messing with these monkeys," Rayleigh said with a complicated expression.
This time, the look in his eyes was no longer one of denial.
It was more of a shock.
He was stunned by the talent that Zhun Yi had shown.
