That's too little; I finished it in one gulp.
Bogart reminded him, "Lieutenant Admiral Garp, ability is what matters."
Karp clenched his fist, not bothering to injure himself to verify it; there was no need. After drinking it, he immediately felt the difference in his body.
Time seemed to stand still for him; aging seemed to have no effect on him.
"Let's go, I need to undergo some special training. Tell Kong I need to take a long vacation..."
Roger, I will hunt you down!
I will hunt you down for the rest of my life!
A strong urge surged within Garp to become stronger and then pursue Roger.
The City of Flowers, at the Top of Mount Fuji.
With a flash of lightning, Abel appeared before Dimon.
"Lord Dimon, this is the fruit of the deal with Garp."
Dimon opened his eyes, took the fruit, and saw that it was indeed a trash Zoan-type.
"Keep the remaining two cups. If anyone else comes to trade later, you can decide for yourself."
"Also, I will be practicing here for the time being. Unless there is anything particularly important, you don't need to tell me. You can decide for yourself."
"Understood!"
After Abel left.
Dimon immediately devoured the fruit he had just acquired.
[Demon Points]: 5500 → 5600
He didn't care about the mere 100 points increase; to him now, even a thousand points wouldn't mean much.
Close your eyes and continue your meditation practice.
Time flies, and half a month has passed in the blink of an eye.
On this day, Dimon opened his eyes and listened to the footsteps coming from behind.
"Huff...huff...what a high mountain."
Tian Yueshi, panting, came up behind Dimon carrying a lunchbox.
Dimon stood up. "What brings you here?"
"You've been cultivating here all this time, how can you not eat?" Tianyue Shi shoved the lunchbox into Dimon's hand, puffing out her cheeks: "Eat up, it's still hot."
Dimon opened the lunchbox, which contained carefully prepared food.
Without being polite, they sat down and enjoyed the meal.
Although he wouldn't starve even if he didn't eat, the food tasted different because of Tianyue Shi's thoughtfulness.
Tian Yue Shi didn't mind the dirt, and knelt on the ground, asking curiously, "What are you cultivating? Why do you have to do it in a place like this?"
"I am experiencing nature. You will definitely be amazed when I succeed in my cultivation."
Dimon is becoming increasingly confident in developing his domineering abilities, and as his training deepens, he is more and more convinced that it is feasible.
"Keeping us in suspense!"
Tian Yue Shi pursed her lips, her big eyes gazing at Dimon, who was enjoying his meal, and couldn't help but smile slightly.
"By the way, Yamato has already learned to talk, but he's so noisy and mischievous, always running around the General's mansion."
"Really? You've worked hard. When Kaido comes back, you must ask him for a child management fee."
Tianyue couldn't help but laugh, and the two chatted as they ate.
After Dimon finished eating, Tianyue Shi cleared away the dishes and tidied up the lunchboxes before getting up to say goodbye.
"Good luck, Mr. Dimon. I'm heading back now."
"You don't need to come back anymore, I'll go back."
"I didn't want to come. Climbing so high is exhausting."
Tian Yueshi glared at him, then turned and went down the mountain.
Dimon continued his spiritual practice.
Two months later, he had completely mastered the Entanglement Technique. He no longer needed to deliberately activate it; it was maintained at all times, even while he slept.
After that, one enters the second step of cultivation: Absolute!
Compared to Entanglement, Absolute's cultivation progressed much faster, completing it in just over half a month.
These are all cultivation methods that he figured out little by little. He had no master to teach him, and he couldn't even judge whether they were right or wrong.
But it is not important.
Six months later, in the year 1494 of the Haiyuan calendar.
On this day, Vinsmoke Judge arrived at the mountaintop.
“Mr. Dimon, thank you for taking me in all these years. I’ve come to say goodbye.”
Dimon opened his eyes and said without turning his head, "Have a safe journey."
Judge paused for a moment, then chuckled, "Aren't you going to ask me why I'm leaving?"
As he spoke, he began to explain to himself: "Actually, I come from the North Blue. The Vinsmoke family was once very powerful. Hundreds of years ago, the Germa Empire, which lasted only 66 days, almost unified the North Blue, but was eventually destroyed by the World Government."
"I want to go back to the North Sea and rebuild Germa!"
Dimon was not surprised at all. What reason could stop a man from seeking revenge?
He didn't try to persuade him to stay; the institute didn't need another Vinsmoke Judge.
"Wish you a safe journey."
After repeating the sentence, Dimon closed his eyes again and continued to practice his domineering abilities.
Judge nodded and said, "Please rest assured, I will not reveal a single word about Hades."
He had drunk the elixir of immortality that Dimon had given him; this debt of gratitude could not be repaid even by working at the research institute for a few years.
Judge doesn't consider himself a good person, but he's not ungrateful either.
"If you need my help, please feel free to contact me anytime."
"Well then, goodbye, Mr. Dimon!"
Dimon didn't care; Pluto was just a big toy, and whether or not it was leaked was irrelevant to him.
People come and go, but nothing affects his cultivation!
Chapter 139 [Water-Seeing Method]
Entanglement, severance, practice, release.
The third step, the training, couldn't hold Dimon for long; its purpose was to make him release more energy than usual.
It is a technique to generate extra energy, which is used to concentrate the mind and unleash a powerful aura, thereby cultivating and sublimating the will.
This step is not difficult.
The hardest part is the last step: sending!
This is the final step in basic cultivation, the culmination of the previous three steps.
Controlling one's own ki is not difficult up to this point; what really troubles Dimon is the development of his ultimate move.
In Hunter x Hunter, each character has a unique special move, the direction of which is determined by the developer's ideas and their own ki attribute.
Dimon remembered that the [Water Viewing Technique] could distinguish the attributes of Qi.
Will the water-viewing ritual be useful?
Dimon wasn't sure either; he was completely untrained and could only research and experiment on his own.
He returned to the general's mansion, found a glass of water, and then put a leaf into the glass.
Afterwards, hold your hands around the cup to generate energy and silently observe the changes.
About ten seconds later, the green leaves floating on the water were entangled by a wisp of black mist, and in the blink of an eye, they withered and disappeared completely.
"Is this phenomenon a trait-based system?"
There are six types of Qi attributes, with the Specialty type being the most unique. It does not belong to the other five types and is therefore classified as the sixth type, the Specialty type.
Back atop Mount Fuji, Dimon sat cross-legged, pondering how to further develop his Haki abilities.
"My advantage lies in the sheer amount of domineering power that far exceeds the limits achievable by normal people. Considering this..."
Dimon gradually came up with an idea and immediately put it into action.
Spring goes and autumn comes, and another year has passed in the blink of an eye.
Kaido's Beasts Pirates have returned from another expedition.
Barrett followed Kaido to the Flower Capital and immediately sought out Abel.
The two had last met and ended in a draw. Upon meeting this time, Barrett immediately challenged Barrett to a fight.
Abel did not refuse, but considering that Lord Dimon was training at Fujiyama, he changed the battlefield to Udon.
Kaido learned from Abel that Dimon was training at Fujiyama, and immediately transformed into a dragon, not even bothering to look at his daughter, and flew to Fujiyama as soon as possible.
A green dragon arrived at the mountaintop platform, its enormous dragon eyes looking down at the people below.
"Oh ho ho ho... How rare! You actually cultivate in a place like this?"
“Sassiburidana”.
Dimon opened his eyes and looked up slightly at the Azure Dragon.
Kaido met his gaze, his eyes narrowing slightly. In his Observation Haki, Damon seemed to be just an ordinary person, without any trace of the aura of a powerful figure.
He couldn't help but be somewhat surprised, "What have you been cultivating? How can you suppress your aura to this extent!"
If he didn't know Dimon so well, and if a stranger used Observation Haki to investigate, he would definitely think this guy was just an ordinary person, right?
“This is called ‘Absolute Power’,” Dimon smiled slightly. “It’s a powerful application technique I developed. Interesting, isn’t it?”
Observation Haki is the power of "hearing," and its essence is releasing one's own Haki to probe the ki of others.
This energy refers to the life energy released by others.
The more powerful a person is, the stronger the life energy they release, and the louder their "sound" will be in the perception of Observation Haki.
Absolutely isolates his aura completely within his body, almost never letting a trace leak out. Therefore, in the perception of Observation Haki, a top-tier expert would appear to be just like an ordinary person.
However, this technique also has its drawbacks. In a critical state, the defense is almost zero, and if attacked, one can only rely on physical strength to withstand the attack.
"Interesting." Kaido grinned. "I heard you've been training here for two years, and this is all?"
"Of course not, let me show you something funny."
Dimon chuckled softly, slowly extending his right palm toward Kaido, then his gaze sharpened.
The suppressed energy within his body was suddenly released, forming an invisible cloak around him.
The energy suddenly increased several times over!
The invisible aura suddenly turned black, like the claws of countless demons, enveloping the azure dragon in the sky.
In that instant, Kaido's expression turned serious.
He seemed to be standing naked in the snow, a chill creeping over him.
He subconsciously released his domineering aura to counter this force, which relieved some of the pressure.
"What is this?" Kaido exclaimed in astonishment, "Conqueror's Haki... no, it's not the same!"
This aura contained intense malice; if it were an ordinary person here, they might have been killed remotely.
Conqueror's Haki only makes people faint, but this Haki is even more powerful than Conqueror's Haki!
It's an aura of dominance I've never seen before!
Kaido was extremely shocked. Besides Observation Haki, Armament Haki, and Conqueror's Haki, there was a fourth type of Haki?
