14 New skills and entering the forest

Although the basic leg martial arts did provide her with the way to train herself and the various forms used in combat that would best suit her body type but advanced techniques of certain groups or individuals can only be learned directly from that person or someone with a certain mastery of the special move.

For example the certain usage of special abilities or superhuman strength to develop special moves or unique fighting styles like the world government and marines special martial arts techniques, ones that have been developed to suit an individuals body type after consuming a devil fruit like Luffy's stretching abilities or his other techniques that he developed or even Sanji's ability to light his legs on fire called diable jambe where his kicks become explosive.

In order to learn them from the individual, she needs to be able to find them when they have already reached a certain mastery of the techniques but also have the suitable body type and conditions to be met to be able to learn it from them.

For now she could only focus on building herself a firm foundation while still young and level up her main profession.

Since she had some spare points and was able to now purchase some basic skills too she wandered around the village and then came into contact with one of the retired people that were once a part of the guardians so they had a couple of their own abilities.

Although she could not learn his advanced skills because it was more suited to their own body and fighting style she could purchase some of his basic or beginner skills.

After browsing through them she decided to purchase the upper body martial art skills from him starting from the beginner skill and then the basic mastery once she had mastered it during her many duels with others and training diligently.

During combat after learning the upper body martial arts skill she learned how to better block punches, dodge them or change the direction or them so while attacking with her legs she would not get hit by a direct punch or kick thanks to her upper and lower martial arts mastery.

She was also able to learn how to better train her whole body rather than just her lower half thanks to the combination of the two of them so she would not suffer from having a weak upper body than her lower half.

While she was training she had also gained a greater mastery of her skills and had improved some of her stats by another point.

Meanwhile many things had changed within the month which allowed her to gain many points even when she had not been able to complete the 50 or more win streak achievement due to there being a limit to the opponents she could face within a certain range of her home that did not know electro and those that she had not fought before.

A months time was more than enough for her to gain many points and still be able to purchase not only her basic upper body martial arts skill but also upgrade her beginner drawing to basic grade after she found someone with the skill in the neighbourhood.

After a lot of practice, her skills began to slowly improve and she was able to also increase her experience or fame points again so that she could begin to look forward to upgrading her main profession when she has mastered her basic skills.

Thanks to her talent in lower body martial arts and her main professions boosts towards her learning ability of related things she was able to master many things a lot faster than the other skills in her skillset however her other talent did allow her to master her drawing skills and other related things to navigation better.

Although the speed of her navigation related talents were not as fast to master as her martial arts it was still increasing at a fast pace so long as she was she emailed diligent in her training.

As for other skills from other main or side professions like swordsman, sniper, grappler or wrestler, ninja, guard and assassin she left them as they are and did not purchase any of them because they did not fit her chosen fighting style.

As a martial artist she wanted to focus solely on building up her body and her leg techniques rather than learning another skill that may interfere with the way she had chosen to fight.

After finishing her daily tasks she looked over her beginner skills and chose to purchase a beginner wild survival guide.

Although it did not provide much it taught how to track, counter-track, how to find food and water in different types of different environments and how what to bring in order to ensure survival in those environments.

After a month of gathering information Alyssia was able to find the location where Pedro usually trained so she decided to attempt to find and meet him in person.

Just like in the anime or manga, Pedro usually trained on his own within the forest area waiting for his turn to venture out onto the sea.

He had been greatly influenced by the pirate king gol d roger and wished to gather a copy of each of the ponyglyphs within the possession of some of the four emperors but his failure to do so led him to be captured by big mom and lost most of his crew, his eye and also most of his lifespan.

Although Alyssia couldn't tell him of a future that would happen that she wasn't supposed to know she could provide him with several hints to steer him from making any rash decisions that would harm him and his crew.

After finishing reading through her beginner survival guide she also purchased several other things like a beginner climbing/parkour skill, a beginner concealment/counter tracking skill along with a beginner tracking/detection skill so that she can practice them once she enters the forest while she looks for Pedro.
