Animal Manipulation

Chapter 4 - Animal Manipulation

The sudden appearance of Mayphis surprised Jag a bit, Mike gave a sorry expression and left with Mayphis

'*sigh* back to training alone I guess' Jag thought to himself, before going to a nearby tree that was well secluded, he didn't like being watched by other people when training, he has his owns secrets, everyone does

He was trying to coat his body in sand, like gaara's sand armor, since he isn't a logia like Crocodile, he had succeeded a bit in doing so

He was able to coat his fists and chest with sand, Not thick sand, but sand nonetheless, the sand was around the thickness of a human foot, it could definitely cushion some of the damage taken if Jag was hurt

But he wasn't capable of coating his entire body in sand, mainly because he also needed to move, the grainy feeling of sand wasn't pleasant on his body, not to mention the weight of sand, there were various factors that prevented Jag from perfecting the sand body armor

But that wasn't the reason Jag came to this tree, if you looked closely at the tree you would notice various marks on it, Jag had been getting busy, VERY BUSY

He had been doing rock lee's practice of constantly kicking something hard, it not only made your bones stronger, but increases your pain resistance

Walking inside of the bustling tavern, Zach walked up the the lady at the front desk

This tavern was one of the rare structures, in Bemt City that had survived the apocalypse, it even became a frequent meeting spot for survivors, evolvers, and awakened ones

Zach was a well known figure in Bemy City, especially the stories of him defeating the Rank 4 Zombie, in truth awakening can't use the things of evolver's so in the end Zach traded in the Rank 4 crystal for a Glick pistol

It was silver in color, if a Glock was black, then this Glick would be white, the handle of the gun was brown, basically Rick Grimes gun

The gun could go into Automatic, and Semi-automatic modes in seconds

And the ammo for the gun were explosive, one bullet was capable of burning an entire house to the ground

As for why Zach was here, he was here to request a quest, he wanted a group of the best awakened and evolver's in Bemt City, he did it early since the threat of the purging fog was coming in a few months, and within this time it was enough for the tavern to scope out good seeds for him

After informing the lady at the counter the reasons for his visit, the lady immediately went upstairs, the upstairs was for staff only, everyone in the room pretended not to know the existence of Zach. everyone kept laughing and drinking happily

A few minutes later, the owner of the tavern came out, he was an old man with a cane and a very stylish robe, "Hahahaha, to think Zach Creed would come back to this place" Homer said, Zach was one of the founding members of the tavern, it could be said that if it weren't for Zach, this tavern wouldn't be

Seeing the appearance of the tavern owner, the whole room became quiet. He had been in secluded cultivation for months, no one and nothing could make him come out of it, but now the appearance of Zach Creed has caused him, this unshakable buddha to respond

This isn't a laughing matter, there were some newbie's in Bemt City and they didn't know much about Zach, so they asked around, after getting the information about Zach's identity the blood from there skin turned cold

The Gunslinging Devil, Zach Creed

Throwing sand in his eyes, Jag suddenly jumps back, realizing that Jason had a hidden weapon, Jason was Jag's caretaker assigned by his father to watch him and care for him while he's gone

He was 20 years of age and was a Rank 1 Evolver, his ability was called Winding Gale

It allowed him to wind anything, for example, if he were to throw a rock at someone, using his ability he could make the rock spin at fast speeds, turning it into a flying drill of sorts

Jason's hidden weapon were shurikens, He can create a gale that Winds the objects he puts the gale on, he can also control the gale, making the gale capable of manipulating the object he puts it on

As Jason threw multiple shurikens at Jag, Jag tried dodging them, since he had his Mind-Reading ability he knew which direction he would take them, but as they were charging at him they changed, he was prepared, but the speed was still to fast for him to react

Doging it only slightly, it cut his cheek

"That's enough for today" Jag said, huffing intensely, Mind-Reading took a lot out of him, usually though he couldn't turn off his ability, he could tune out the surrounding thoughts of others, but when listening to one's thoughts intentionally is another matter

"Are you ok?" Jason asked, he was Jag's caretaker, although he cut his cheek a little, he was drenched in sweat even though they had been fighting for less than 10 minutes

'If just Mind-Reading with my ears is this problematic, then doing it with my eyes would kill me for sure' Jag thought to himself, before leaving

Jag in his first life had never used his eyes to see, at least one time but he started bleeding out of all his facial orifices so he never used his eyes again

As for how he was able to see things without his eyes were simple, if a person can read ones mind, then that means if someone were to look at something the image they see would be encrypted into messages sent into the brain

Jag as a Mind-Reader can read these messages, his ability allows him to convert these weird messages into pictures for him, in a sense he's turning them blind, since instead of them receive the messages he is

In his last life he used crows for this job, since birds have the best eyesight, that's just common knowledge, but crows were the smartest birds, and thanks to his Mind-Reading ability, if 2 crows were communicating with each other, there crow language would be deciphered into english by his ability

Thus now, he can speak crow

To understand a language, you need to know what each word means, like hola, if you don't know it means hi then you wouldn't even use the word
