Chapter 7
Looking at Nami's expression, Ron guessed roughly what she was thinking.
But now, talking about killing Arlong won't help, because he doesn't have that kind of power. You just need to make every effort to increase it, when he really has this power, then We will be saved.
It looks like Nami isn't going to leave the living room, Ron really didn't want to leave her, but practice is of the utmost importance right now. He said he was going out and pushed the door open.
Soon, in a secluded spot on the island, he began training.
Once...
Two...
Three...
Time after time, forming the rune, the process became more and more smooth. Each time the speed is higher and the shape is more perfect. The loss of spiritual power is less and less.
During this day of practice, Ron cast a total of about 70 wind blades.
The last attempt in the evening, during the exit of the wind blade, the spiritual force was used up by only 1/5. This is a great improvement.
In Ron's estimation, this shouldn't be the limit, with an ideal caste, the loss of spiritual power should be reduced to 1/6.
It turns out that in the peak state, he would be able to release 6 blades of wind.
Reducing consumption is one side, on the other hand, the speed of caste. A day of training reduced four seconds to two seconds.
Progress has slowed down since the first day. From ten to four seconds yesterday and from four to two seconds today. Today was twice as difficult!
You need to understand that the difference between four and two seconds in a fight is huge.
Four seconds, even against ordinary people, is a long time, I'm afraid. The magic will be interrupted by the other party.
And two seconds, if you choose the right distance, you can release the blade before the enemy attacks.
Sure.
Two seconds is far from Ron's expectation, far from the standard of being fit for a real fight.
At the current level, it is not possible to make an instant cast, but at least you need to reduce the time to less than one second.
Only in this way, when faced with an enemy face-to-face, will Ron be able to react.
In fact, Ron was hoping to find an opportunity to perform some simple achievements in the system, to increase the spirit's stats. But the practice was too important and he has no money, even the most post "Drain this bottle" can not be completed.
No money for vodka!
Ask Nami for vodka? This is another debt hole. Not to mention that, after drinking a bottle, it will be out of order for at least a day. Sacrificing a day of practice for a single spirit attribute is not practical.
In this situation, practice is the best direction of development. Some achievements can be obtained, but on the island it is too troublesome.
Such as first fight, first kill, and the like....
If Ron went up against an ordinary fishman now, he could sneak up and release the wind blade before the enemy reacted...but after that, Arlong will undoubtedly turn the entire island upside down in search of the killer.
It's hard to do, but Ron took his time and continued to practice.
After two more days of practice, Ron was unable to reduce the cast time to less than one second, but it was still reduced to less than two seconds.
The coma of Togo.
Continuous practice, no deliberate meditation for the growth of the spirit, but Ron still feels the growth. Although a tiny increase, Ron feels like it's equivalent to one spirit characteristic or so.
Right now, Ron was still a frail person physically, but his spiritual strength was completely different from before. Now that he has mastered the wind blade, the pirates with a reward of 2-3 million Belli are nothing to him.
On the Grand Line, it's not worth mentioning, but in East Blue, in the weakest of the four seas, it can take care of itself.
As a Mage, the attack naturally requires no discussion, the weak side is probably defense and speed. If you meet a melee fighter before learning defense magic, there will obviously be problems.
By the way, it seems that most people in this world are melee fighters...
On the fifth day of practice, Ron received an unexpected message from Nami. She goes to sea again, continuing her plan to accumulate belly.
Thinking about it, Ron asked to go with her. The reason is simple, if you stay here, you will not be able to repay the debt, there may be an opportunity at sea.
Of course, there are other reasons. In the sea, you can get achievements and do not need to worry about loli Nami.
Although everything was fine in the original, but with its arrival, there will not necessarily be no butterfly effect. Just like Loli going on an adventure alone....it can't be allowed. You need to protect it.
...
"Let's go to Lu Town first, you'll land there and don't forget to return the money. The interest rate doubles every year."
Nami clutched the document signed by Ron and pointed at it with her index finger. Nami stood next to the mast of the ship and prepared to sail, although she is only 14 years old, but now she is not much different from Nami in Ron's memories.
Ron shrugged, " Hey, hey! Will you just leave Me? I can help you, too."
"You can't!"
Nami chuckled and shook his head, giving Ron a scary look, " Do you even know what I'm going to do? I will deal with the evil pirates! Steal their treasures! If I'm not careful, I'll die, there's no time to take care of you!"
Frowning, Ron looked at the small, delicate girl. With the clear words that he was useless, Ron felt helpless.
Good.
Despised by a girl.
But although she was tactless, her intentions were kind. Nami didn't want Ron to take any chances with her.
"If I don't act with you, it will take a long time to repay the debt. Don't think I'll be in the way."
Ron objects to the decision.
"You can't."
Nami didn't hesitate.
Ron: " By the way....I'm actually a MAGICIAN!"
Nami:"..... and I was actually on the Grand Line! Just don't!"
RON:"..."
