It's been two years of grueling training and now I have just become 8 years old, the time to start on my journey has come. This is why I had come to this world. This is what I've been training for my whole life in this world.
I am now strong enough to sail unbothered and dominate in any of the 4 seas.
Physically, I have reached around 1200 doriki in strength and have now seemed to have reached a kind of limit for my body for my age.
I had been able to keep up exponential growth every year until around 7 years old where I seem to have slowed down. I went from around 100 to around 600 doriki in the first year and to around 1200 doriki in the second year. the last three months have seen barely a 100 doriki in improvement, which is still amazing, but not the super growth I used to have.I am counting on my puberty to see the next exponential growth.
While my physical strength improvement is slowing down , the same cannot be said for my haki, while actively concentrating, I am able to use observation haki and my super senses in conjunction to sense or 'see' everything upto around 7 kilometres on land, and feel everything upto around 10 kilometer inside water and yes I have been training under water under high pressure and apperently the sea in just a random place in East blue seem to be atleast 13 kilometres in depth which is literally around the depth of the deepest point back in Earth.
While my range is very high, the longer I try to sense the smaller the precision of the search. At my maximum range, I won't be able to identify faces for example and I would need to lower my range to around 1 kilometer to do that.
With purely observation haki only, I am only able to have a range around 700 meters though and it is the ability of observation to be used in conjunction with another ability that allows me to enhance my observation using my super senses.
Also, I was able to successfully use geppou last year and have by now mastered it to quite a satisfying extend. Actually, I think I spent a little bit too much time on this technique, Flying is just too goddamn fun.
My favourite thing to do for a long time was to just go as high as possible until the atmosphere becomes too thin to kick on and just free fall until I try to stop myself from slamming on the water by geppou braking in the last few seconds.I am able to even draw my name in the sky with huge letters of sand in less than a second before it's swept away by the wind.
Soru though is a technique that completely confuses me, I tried kicking the ground more than ten times in the blink of an eye, but just ended up launching myself on the first kick. The physics behind the technique makes absolutely no sense. The only thing I can do for now is to find someone to teach me or just find someone I can actively observe and copy.
Most importantly though I have managed to cover one last weakness that I had, logia users. I am now finally able to use armament haki even though it's just the invisible version.
By concentrating the sixth sense that I have associated as observation haki into my hand and willing my punch to be stronger similar to how i enhance my senses I was able to unlock it.
I kicked myself for some time for not realising before that the sixth sense I felt was the manifestation of haki rather than just observation haki. Actually I'll call the sixth sense haki from now on.
The invisible haki doesn't seem to exactly make me physically stronger. Rather it seemed to be an invisible Armour that gives a super hardness to my skin letting me pierce through the defense of the enemy, somewhat like how the unbreakable skin on luke Cage also gave him the ability to punch through walls.
I tried the same method to unlock conquerors haki by imposing my haki on a few animals in the forest and birds but so far I don't seem to be reaching anywhere.I didn't put much effort into it though since I don't very much care for it anyway and didn't spend much time on it.
I somehow knew that the only way now to make my haki stronger is to go outside and gain some fighting experience. Life or Death fight where split second decisions with your life on the line is the best way to harden willpower hence increasing haki.
My body looks like the body of spider man in the movies with extremely defined biceps and abs, yet extremely flexible also just like spiderman.
Actually now that I think about it my powers are exactly like an enhanced version of Spiderman, with the addition of the bullshit technique that is geppou. I'm pretty sure geppou is physically impossible in my previous world no matter how much force is put into your leg. This world probably has different physical laws.
Actually, all the inconsistencies in this world's physics makes me want to learn all the basic sciences in this world since apparently the world government is able to construct even Androids and cyborgs and God knows what other kind of weapons they have hidden up. I'll have to stock up some books to read during my free time while sailing.
My hair had for some reason become lighter and lighter and now is more light grey rather than blonde upto my nose. My hair along with my grey eyes makes me look like an exautic looking teenager.
It was finally the day during the year when the villagers send out the ship and I decided that I will give a farewell to my family even though I'm pretty sure none of them even remeber me since I actively try to avoid any interaction with the villagers during my training so that I won't have any connections when I finally leave. This also actually helped me in my observation haki developement.
Going to the house where I grew up for the first few years in my life and where everything started was surprisingly nostalgic and emotional. None of my siblings or my father seem to remember me very much except except me eldest sister who used to take care of me when my mother wasn't able to.
She is now apparently a married pregnant women. There where around 4 more unfamiliar faces in the family all of whom where just looking at me with blank faces. My family was totally confused on why I would possibly want to put myself in unnecessary danger. I didn't really bother to explain to them and went straight to see my mother one last time as she was in the farm.
Meeting my mother was also more emotional than I expected.I found myself feeling slightly sad for leaving her forever. Maybey it's because of my very clear memories of her taking care of me.
I was surprised though when I found out that my mother actually remembers me quite well and she was apparently waiting for me to 'come out of your shell and join the family'. She was actually quite emotional and crying and didn't want be to leave.
I was stumped for a while but I soon calmed her down and talked with her for some time. She soon reluctantly accepted that maybey my place is in the sea,seeking out adventures. She wiped her tears and joined me to the docks where the ship was waiting to sail to Orange town.
The village elder, the only person that I had any contact with was waiting at the dock. He wished me luck on my journeys and even gave me a sword he had from a long time ago as a gift for my protection. He told me that it was from his younger days when he too sailed the seas for a few years.
I was surprised when I heard this but now that I think about it, it was pretty apparent. He was the only one in the village interest in the events of the world being the only house with newspapers and a few cartography books.
Jumping on to the ship just as it started sailing away, I waved at my mother, the elder and my sister who had joined them at some point, one last time and turned around, determined to never look back.
