Fortunately, she is quite smart.
Instead of swimming back and forth as Yato had suggested, he circled around the inner wall of the pool again and again.
In this way, when you really can't hold on any longer, you can quickly float to the surface using the inner wall, so as not to drown halfway through the swim.
"President?"
Yukino barely managed to catch her breath. Perhaps feeling that the surroundings were too quiet, she looked around and saw Yato and Ame not far from the shore doing something that seemed a bit strange to her.
Yato sat cross-legged on the ground, wearing only a pair of beach-style swim trunks, while Tenyu applied something that looked like sunscreen all over his body.
But if that's all, it's not much.
What's really strange is...
Wherever Tianyu applied the ointment, the skin would turn red, as if it had been splashed with sulfuric acid, making a teeth-grinding sound, and wisps of blue gas would slowly rise up.
"...!"
Yato gritted his teeth, his brows furrowed.
All the muscles in my body were tense.
Senqing's large veins bulged out, covering his entire body like wriggling worms clinging to him.
Tianyu's words are not an exaggeration at all.
Applying this medicine to the body will truly make you experience pain comparable to death.
Even the pain from having one's joints twisted little by little by Izumi is less than half of what it is.
But whether it's the brain or emotions.
An incredible calm.
He felt that his will was like that of a supreme king, unmoved even when his army was being routed and suffering brutality at the hands of the enemy.
"Is it Conqueror's Haki feeding back into my will?"
Yato thought to himself.
This is the only explanation.
The strength of Conqueror's Haki is closely related to an individual's spirit and mental state.
The reason I hadn't noticed it all this time was because my mental state was already in a state of absolute power mode, and I naturally possessed the characteristics that a Conqueror's Haki user should have, so the changes were not obvious.
Only when one finds oneself in a predicament beyond one's ability to cope will the changed part of oneself become apparent.
"Okay, that's enough."
Tianyu took off his gloves and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
This is not just a simple application.
Special massage techniques are needed to allow the medicine to penetrate more quickly.
Otherwise, it would take too long, and no one could stick with it.
How are you feeling now?
Tenyu stared at the back of Yato's neck, silently preparing to knock him unconscious at any moment.
Although this method of inflicting pain will force you to wake up soon, it is enough to prolong the time and relieve the pain.
However, what Tianyu didn't expect was...
Yato suddenly stood up from the ground.
He was also holding another bottle of medication that needed to be taken orally.
Without saying a word, he unscrewed the bottle cap, tilted his head back, and poured it into his mouth.
"Do you want to die!"
Tenyu was taken aback and quickly snatched the bottle of medicine from his hand, but it was too late. Yato drank it all without spilling a drop.
An unnamed anger instantly surged into my heart.
She glared at Yato, her face turning blue with anger.
"you……!"
"We can talk about this later. I'm going to cool off for a bit first."
Before Tenyu could finish speaking, Yato waved his hand to interrupt him.
The anger vanished in an instant.
Tianyu stared wide-eyed at the man, whose entire body was flushed red and emitting blue smoke as if he had been roasted.
Did she hear it wrong?
This guy used two secret drugs at the same time, yet he can still communicate normally with people?
"I'm not kidding, but your medicine is really potent!"
As Yato felt the medicinal power gradually fermenting within his body, a wild smile spread across his face.
He then strode towards the pool.
Tianyu stared blankly at his back, her lips moving slightly as if she wanted to say something, but no sound came out.
"President?"
Yukino, who was still soaking in the water, seemed a little flustered when Yato came over.
That's understandable. Yato looks a bit too frightening right now.
“You’ve only been lying on the shore for a few minutes, like a seal. Get up quickly and go back to shore. I don’t want to affect you later.”
· ······Requesting flowers····· ····
Yato glanced at her and said.
Yukino was both embarrassed and angry, and gritted her teeth inwardly.
"I'm exhausted... I need to rest for a while before I can get up. Please make yourself at home, President."
But no sooner had she finished speaking than Yato jumped into the pool.
next moment.
A powerful undercurrent surged upwards from below.
They actually pushed her out of the water.
It was clearly Yato's doing.
Because he has medication applied to his body, he can't just reach out and pull Yukino out; he has to resort to this more troublesome method.
"Tianyu-kun... what's going on here?"
Yukino was somewhat used to it.
She struggled to her feet, exhausted. Since Yato had sunk to the bottom of the water and disappeared, she turned her gaze to the other person involved.
0 ..... .......
"It's nothing, just applying sunscreen to a monster that's a monster in both mind and body."
A sarcastic smile appeared on Tianyu's lips.
"..."
……
In the center of the pool, at its deepest point.
The dark, empty void that even sunlight cannot reach, which Yukino dares not approach.
This was specially commissioned by Yato to be modeled after the Montegroto Teme swimming pool in Italy.
It is 40 meters deep.
Because of the short construction time, from the 35-meter mark onwards, the interior becomes an uneven rock wall. The deeper you go, the more you feel like you've left your original world and entered the deep ocean.
Dark and without light.
Silent and profound.
There are no living organisms or algae.
There were only bare rock walls on all sides.
Yato used a downward force, quickly reaching the bottom of the pool like a huge boulder.
My feet were on the rough stones.
The body naturally assumed the posture.
He didn't even provide any guidance himself.
The reason is 'water pressure'.
The omnipresent water pressure acted like the pool's immune system, frantically rejecting Yato, an outsider who didn't belong here.
My skin feels tight and my chest feels stuffy.
Lack of oxygen prevents the body from regulating its functions through breathing.
Therefore, the body instinctively adopts what it believes to be the most correct way to deal with a crisis.
That is a combat technique that has become one with the body!
(I'll eat first, and then I'll write the fourth update.)
Chapter 85
Even when his entire body was submerged in water below 10 degrees Celsius, Yato still felt as if his skin was on fire. This inexplicable pain not only did not subside, but instead penetrated further into his body.
At the same time, a piercing, cramping pain spread through my abdomen.
It felt as if countless poisonous insects were gnawing at my internal organs.
Yato had also done some research on the secret medicine prepared by Tenyu.
In order to overcome its lack of comprehensiveness in martial arts styles, the Uechi-ryu school decided to put on a layer of armor based on its research into ancient medical theories such as human qigong and meridians.
That is, modifications targeting the skin, the largest organ in the human body.
The skin accounts for about 16 percent of the body weight and is mainly divided into the epidermis and dermis. It provides protection, excretion, temperature regulation and sensing of external stimuli, and can be called the body's first line of defense.
The secret medicine applied to the body surface has an extremely strong stimulating effect, using pain to promote the contraction of capillaries. In this process, the damaged skin tissue gets used to this state. After the medicine wears off, the repaired skin will become firm and tough!
However, this is not thorough enough.
Therefore, the second type of oral remedy was developed.
The oral remedy is a mixture of toxins that disrupt bodily functions and cause mental anguish. It is said to contain king cobra venom, which can induce benign pathological changes in the nervous system, thus matching the modified skin's function.
In layman's terms, it means upgrading the computer's hardware and then adjusting the driver configuration to the corresponding standard. Only in this way can the performance of the upgraded hardware be brought into full play.
As for the third secret medicine, it is a true modification specifically for the hands.
Let's leave that aside for now.
Yato, who is currently using two secret medicines at once, is truly in dire straits. The founder of the Kamichi-ryu school, who developed three secret medicines, probably never imagined that anyone would dare to do this.
But in reality, for Yato...
It wasn't as difficult as it seemed.
When pain accumulates to a certain level, it exceeds the range of perception.
The body is even gradually becoming numb and stiff.
This is not a good thing.
Even the best medicine can become poison if used in excessive amounts.
Yato held his breath.
My eyes were closed the moment I took it in.
