Chapter 86: Snake Devil Fruit: Model: Blue Dragon—

"How is this possible!"

Seeing that Rifan just raised a hand and blocked her Thunder Eight Trigrams, Yamato's eyes widened.

"That's why you're still too young." Rifan shook his head, flipped his hand to grab Yamato's mace, and flew it out with force.

"If it's just that level, it won't make me move even one step."

Upon hearing this, Yamato gritted her teeth and attacked Rifan again.

"I don't believe that I can't make you move!"

After half an hour, Yamato rested on the ground with both hands, sweating profusely.

Opposite her, Rifan still stood in place, without moving a step.

"How is it possible, how can there be such a big gap!" Looking at Rifan, Yamato was full of disbelief.

"Even if you don't want to believe it, it's a fact." Rifan smiled, walked to Yamato, and stretched out a hand to her, "But, isn't this the reason for me being your teacher?"

"Don't worry, Yamato, I will train you to be a warrior who can defeat Kaido."

"At that time, you will be able to defeat Kaido, open the Wanokuni to the world, or you can even venture out on the sea if you want."

"Rifan!" Yamato raised her head and looked at Rifan's smiling face.

Under the shining of the sun, Yamato only felt that Rifan's smiling face was so dazzling.

"Teacher Rifan!" Suddenly, Yamato threw away her mace, jumped directly from the ground with both hands, and threw herself on Rifan's body, her hands tightly wrapped around Rifan's waist," I totally rely on you, Teacher Rifan!"

"Hehe, you are finally willing to call me teacher." Rifan raised his hand and stroked Yamato's hair.

"It's not too late, let's start training now."

"However, I didn't expect you to be able to even use an external release on your Armament Haki, and even the coverage of your Observation Haki is less than 100 kilometers."

"Although your conqueror's Haki is not awakened, it won't be long before you awaken it."

"It's decided, while practicing[Eight Inner Gates], Haki's training will also be on it."

Rifan remembers that Yamato should be able to awaken her conqueror haki two years later. 

If under his own training, she didn't even master what she could have mastered, Rifan would have doubts about life.

"Hey, can I awaken the Conqueror's Haki!?" Yamato asked in surprise.

"Why, you don't even know that you have this talent?" Rifan glanced at Yamato unexpectedly, "Forget it, in the past two years, you will definitely master it."

"Also, if you can meet my requirements in the past two years, I will give you this Zoan Mythical Devil Fruit, the Fish-Fish fruit: Model: Blue Dragon, what do you think?"

Seeing Devil Fruit suddenly appear in Rifan's hand, Yamato almost yelled out excitedly.

"Don't worry, I will definitely practice hard, Teacher Rifan!"

"That's good, then first start running for ten hours straight. You can start now."

 With that, Rifan lifted Yamato up and started training.

The fruit of the fish-fish devil fruit: model blue dragon, Rifan planned to give it to Yamato from the beginning.

Because after [The Eight Inner Gates] opens the death door, it will bring a strong burden to the body, and if there is no extremely strong system, it will cause death.

Although the system of people in the Pirate World is generally stronger than that of the ninja, using [The Eight Inner Gates] burns your own vitality.

In this regard, even a strong system can't play a big role.

Unless it is the ability of an awakened Zoan Devil fruit, once the death door is opened, what is waiting for the user is bound to be the result of death.

And if the user is an awakened Mythical devil fruit user, perhaps after opening the death door, they will only lose power for a while.

Rifan didn't want Yamato to die because of the [Eight Inner Gates], so in the beginning, Rifan decided to give Yamato Kaido's devil fruit that has no weakness.

Time is like a wind, inside the training chamber, two years have passed.

On the coast, Rifan and Yamato stood opposite each other. 

After a few minutes, Yamato made a move.

"Seventh Gate, Gate of Shock, open!"

"Daytime Tiger!"

Yamato's eyes glowed with red light, compressed the surrounding atmosphere into her hands, and then suddenly pushed out towards Rifan.

The propelled air turned into a white tiger and slammed into Rifan's body. 

Rumble–

A few seconds later, when everything subsided, the ground around Rifan had been shaken by Yamato's power.

"Sigh, two years have passed, is there still no way to make Teacher Rifan take a step back?'

Yamato sighed and endured the pain in her body as she canceled the Eight Inner Gates.

"Although you say that, your strength has indeed grown sufficiently." Rifan walked to Yamato and patted her on the shoulder.

"Armament Haki has reached the level of internal destruction, the coverage of Observation Haki has increased several times, and not only do you awaken your Conqueror's Haki, but you can also even control it freely.

"With the addition of Eight Inner Gates, you pass. And it only took two years to reach this level. So I will give you a perfect score."

"During this time, it's been hard work. This is what I promised you before.

With that said, Rifan handed Yamato the promised devil fruit.

Yamato did not refuse and took the Devil Fruit directly and ate it.

"By the way, Yamato, although you have learned [Eight Inner Gates], you can never open the Eighth Gate until your Devil Fruit awakens."

"Otherwise, you will really die."

At this time, Rifan's face was extremely serious.

Although during the practice, Rifan has already told Yamato [Eight Inner Gates]  advantages and disadvantages, at the moment when she is about to leave the training room, Rifan still wants to warn Yamato again.

"Don't worry, Teacher Rifan, I still want to go to the sea to have a good adventure in the future, so I won't recklessly give up my life easily.

Yamato smiled and put her hand on Rifan's shoulder.

"Furthermore, I also want to give my teacher a retirement plan, so I won't die before you." 

Hearing Yamato's words, Rifan's mouth twitched fiercely.

"You don't have to worry about my retirement, according to my situation, if you become old, I may still be young.

"We're leaving soon. You should change your green leather jacket with this."

"This is your previous clothes, take it."

Rifan handed Yamato's clothes that he had put away before to her.

Yamato also didn't care and changed her clothes directly in front of Rifan.

In the past two years, in the battle against Rifan, Yamato's green tights were always damaged or even sometimes destroyed.

Therefore, Yamato didn't care about being seen by Rifan.

Among his three apprentices, Vivi should be the only girl who is conscious of him.

Thinking of the days when Nami, Vivi, and Yamato worked out in the time training chamber, Rifan couldn't help thinking.

After changing her clothes, Yamato tried to use her new Devil Fruit's power again. About ten minutes later, Yamato stood in front of Rifan again.

"Let's go, Teacher Rifan, I can't wait to see that guy Kaido's expression when he sees me using the same Devil Fruit power as him, haha." Yamato laughed.

"I advise you to look for him after exercising your new ability for a while." Rifan shook his head, "And it won't take long since I will help you develop your Devil Fruit's power. But I hope you can awaken your Devil Fruit's power sooner than later."

While talking, Rifan raised his hand and pressed it on Yamato's shoulder. The next moment, the two returned to the Dojo.

"Huh?! Teacher Rifan, Yamato, why did you come out so soon?"

Inside the Dojo Hall, Sadi, who was about to stroll around the Dojo, blinked.

"Wait, Yamato, you have changed a lot?!"
