Chapter 34: One Year of Growth

The island was silent, untouched by civilization.

For an entire year, I had stayed here—training, refining, evolving. Every day was a test of my endurance, every moment a step toward perfection.

The world had moved on, but I had remained in isolation, dedicating myself to one thing alone—strength.

Now, as I stood atop a jagged cliff, staring out at the endless ocean, I could feel it.

I was not the same man I had been a year ago. I had transcended.

A Year of Relentless Training

My training was brutal, pushing my body to its absolute limits.

✅ Swordsmanship Mastery

I refined my skills until every movement was flawless.I honed my adaptability, making my techniques unpredictable.My sword, Oden, my Supreme Grade Black Blade, had become an extension of my will.

✅ Conqueror's Haki Mastery

My Supreme Conqueror's Haki, copied from Shanks, had reached an unimaginable level.I trained to control my aura, no longer simply unleashing it but directing it with precision.My presence alone could crush weaker warriors without lifting a blade.

✅ Armament Haki Perfection

My Black Blade had become stronger than ever, infused with the hardest form of Armament Haki.I could now use Internal Destruction, allowing my strikes to bypass armor and crush enemies from the inside.Even my body had become nearly impenetrable, my durability rivaling Kaido's.

✅ Supreme Mantra Mastery (Observation Haki Beyond Limits)

My Mantra had evolved into something far beyond future sight.I could hear the voices of all things, sensing not just attacks but emotions, intentions, and even distant presences.I could predict battles before they even began.

✅ Physique of a Monster

My body had continued to grow. Now at 15, I stood nearly 9 feet tall (275 cm), towering like a true warrior of legend.My muscles were dense, powerful, and conditioned to endure the harshest of battles.Speed, endurance, reflexes—all had reached their peak.Checking My System Panel

As I closed my eyes, my Copy System activated with a soft chime.

Ding!

A blue panel materialized before me, listing my current abilities.

But even now, I knew—I was not done yet.

With one final breath, I turned toward the sea.

It was time to leave isolation.
