34. Seimei Kikan

"Ah, there's nothing we can do about it; I won't be merciful, Shuzo Instructor." Seeing that Atlas couldn't hide, he had no choice but to bite the bullet.

"Stop talking nonsense, kid!"

"Shigan Madara (Speckles)!" Shuzo made gun shapes with both hands, as if he had turned into a multi-armed Asura. Countless bullets hit Atlas. Although he asked Atlas to come up as a sparring partner, he would not underestimate this young brat.

Atlas was not in a hurry; a red light flashed in his eyes, observation haki was turned on, and he dodged Shuzo's Shigan by moving his body slightly.

However, Atlas was not someone who could just dodge without fighting back. Before Shuzo could withdraw his strength, he lunged forward and stepped hard on the ground with his left leg. A hole immediately spread in all directions.

Tekkai Junshu Yusei Chikara (Adherence Superior Power)!

Shuzo was shocked when he saw this and quickly retracted his arms in a cross-like manner to protect himself. However, he still felt like he was hit head-on by a sea steam train, and he couldn't help but take a few steps back before he could stop.

"How's it going, Shuzo Instructor!" Atlas grinned at Shuzo. Everyone around him was also frightened . If it were them, they probably wouldn't be able to take this blow.

"Good boy, come again!" Shuzo was also aroused with the desire to win in his heart and said with a sinister smile.

"Rankyaku!"

"Rankyaku Konton (Chaos)!"

After all, Atlas had just learned Tempest Kick, so he had not yet developed the extended skill of Tempest Kick. He suffered a big loss immediately, and the dense vacuum slashes almost overwhelmed Atlas!

"Razor!" Suddenly, Atlas disappeared on the spot, and several afterimages suddenly appeared in mid-air, just in time to avoid all the slashes.

In fact, with Atlas's current physique, the most he would suffer from these slashes was a few flesh wounds, but Atlas still wanted to be more decent. It would be very detrimental to his image if he were covered in tatters.

Atlas also took the opportunity to rush towards Shuzo. He was in front of Shuzo almost instantly and hit Shuzo's vitals with a direct Shigan.

"Look, this is Tekkai!" Shuzo actually still had time to explain to everyone, which made Atlas's hand unconsciously increase in strength.

"Ting!"

A sound of gold and iron sounded, Tekkai Kotetsu (Steel)!

In order not to fall over, Shuzo secretly covered his clothes with a layer of armamet haki!

Reality told him that his caution was not unreasonable. Although it was Atlas's first time using Shigan, with the powerful physique and the divine power given by the Ox Talisman, it was not as simple as 1+1=2!

If Shuzo had not used haki just now, he would have been major wound. Although it would not be a serious problem, it would be embarrassing in front of the students!

"Okay, okay, today's demonstration is over." Shuzo saw an excited smile gradually appearing on Atlas's face and quickly terminated the demonstration.

Seeing this, Atlas didn't feel like taking action anymore, so he had to lick his lips with unsatisfied feelings. He had never encountered any decent opponents in East Blue before. Sure enough, this trip to the headquarters was well worth it.

In Atlas's view, the real strong man must challenge the stronger one. The strong man will swing his sword at the stronger one, while the weak will only swing his sword at the weaker one! Strength never comes out of thin air, and destiny will never let down every drop of sweat you shed.

"Okay, you can practice by yourself in the rest of the time. If you don't understand, you can come to me. Atlas, come with me. Teacher Zephyr has something to do with you." Shuzo dismissed Smoker and others casually, and then greeted Atlas went to Zephyr.

Hearing that Zephyr was going to meet Atlas, everyone immediately looked at him with envy. After all, it was a summons from Marine Admiral. He might even get Zephyr's careful teachings, but they were just envious. When there is a not so big gap between you and that person, jealousy may arise , but once the gap reaches a huge difference, only envy will remain.

Although Atlas was a little confused as to why Zephyr wanted to see him, 'Wasn't he satisfied with yesterday's battle?' Thinking of this, Atlas couldn't help rubbing his teeth.

"Kid, how are you doing with the Rokushiki ?" Zephyr asked directly about Atlas's practice when they met, with a gentle smile on his face. Zephyr can be said to be a strict person, but he is definitely not harsh.

Otherwise, many generals in Marine who had graduated, would not be grateful to him. It is said that Shuzo stayed in the recruit camp to help Zephyr because he wanted to follow Zephyr. Even later, Zephyr decided to betray Marine and established "NEO Marine", there were a large number of followers, which shows how charismatic Zephyr himself is.

"It's not bad. There's no problem with the basic principles and usage. The only problem is the time for practice." Atlas replied seriously.

Zephyr is not surprised by this; he has long been immune to Atlas's monster learning ability.

"Don't underestimate the practice of Rokushiki . It's not just a fighting technique."

"Practice all Rokushiki to Grandmaster, and finally achieve ultimate control over the body. This is the seventh style of Marine Rokushiki  - Seimei Kikan (Life Return)!" Zephyr continued to explain to Atlas.

"Seimei Kikan?" Atlas showed a hint of surprise. In fact, he had already known about the skill of Seimei Kikan. After all, isn't it common sense that there are seven of the six powers?

"Yes, Seimei Kikan. Among Marines, there are only a few people who can successfully practice life return. The most famous one is Naval Headquarters Rear Admiral Onigumo Hattoryu. The principle is to inject consciousness into the hair, and the magic effect of Seimei Kikan is much more than that."

"Moreover, in fact, you have already achieved part of the Seimei Kikan, and can maximize the use of energy to achieve the effect of repairing the body, just like your body's powerful self-healing ability, but yours is passive, while Seimei Kikan is subjective and conscious control."

Zephyr is still very satisfied with Atlas. As an older generation Marine, he attaches great importance to physical fitness. He does not deny the ability of Devil Fruit, but he does not advocate relying too much on the fruit's ability.

When Borsalino was in the recruiting camp, he was criticized many times by Zephyr for relying too much on fruit abilities.

So when he sees a pure physical player like Atlas, he feels an inexplicable affection.

"Kid, I'm very optimistic about you. You have the potential to become the Marine Admiral in the future, hahahahaha..." Zephyr patted Atlas's shoulder heavily, with a look of pride on his face.

"Of course, I want to become the strongest man in the world!"
