Chapter 218 Special Training

Chapter 218 Special Training

"Yohohoho, Captain, long time no see."

Brook smiled as soon as he saw Nicholas.

"Brook, ah, you seem to be in a good Mood."

Looking at Brook in front of him, Nicholas could feel the joy emanating from Brook's Soul.

It could be said that after death, Souls should enter the Land of the Dead, but Brook's Soul, having eaten the Revive-Revive Fruit, was different. Brook's Soul continuously emitted powerful Energy in order to exist in this world, making his Soul infinitely close to being substance.

This powerful Energy could even clearly transmit Brook's Emotions to others, a resonance between Souls.

Of course, relying on Haki and Sea Prism Stone and other special means could infinitely inflict heavy damage on him.

But it could be said that as long as there were no means to attack the Soul, it would be almost impossible to eliminate Brook.

"Yohohoho, Captain, I had a Swordsman master from Wano Country forge a new Staff Sword for me. Through this Sword, I can use a Soul-Ensnaring Slash to bring the coldness from the Underworld into this world."

Brook twirled the Staff Sword in his hand a few times, then said to Nicholas.

Obviously, under Nicholas's Suggestion, his Strength had improved by leaps and bounds.

"By the way, how is the Development direction I told you about progressing?"

Nicholas didn't care much about Brook's Development of bringing Underworld energy into the human world. Compared to the true Potential of the Revive-Revive Fruit, these were just minor details.

"Although there has been some progress, it is still somewhat difficult. After all, although I can sense it, it seems to be repelling me. Currently, I can only borrow a little Underworld energy. As for the level you mentioned, Captain, it's a lifetime away, ah."

Brook's upper and lower jawbones collided constantly. For Brook, who could have a Lifespan close to Immortality, to say such words showed how outrageous Nicholas's request was.

"Don't say such discouraging words. Since the Revive-Revive Fruit chose you, then you might be able to do it."

Nicholas began to give Brook a pep talk.

Simon looked at the scene unfolding before him, and it was basically no different from his past experience.

Nicholas, this devil…

At the same time, Simon looked at Brook, who was embarking on his old path, with pity. Recalling the Years when he was given pep talks, the Bullets he fired could probably form a mountain.

But to be fair, targeted intensive Training can indeed make proficiency increase rapidly.

Although he had Talent in shooting back then, if it weren't for that period of intensive Training, even if he could reach his current shooting level, the Time would probably have been delayed by several Years.

Brook has been eating the Revive-Revive Fruit for decades, but the Development level of the Fruit can be said to be not very high. He also bears an important part of Nicholas's Plan, so spending Time to develop his Ability is still quite necessary.

"Brook, your Development route is mainly Devil Fruit Ability. You must have realized that the Ability of the Revive-Revive Fruit is essentially different from other Fruits. Other Fruits rely on Stamina to activate. Once the user's Stamina is exhausted, the Devil Fruit Ability will almost be unable to activate.

But the Revive-Revive Fruit is different. Although I don't quite know what it needs to activate, it is obviously not Stamina."

Nicholas said, looking at Brook. After all, he was just a Skeleton, without even Muscles or nerves, so there was no way to generate Stamina.

"Yohohoho, it seems to be like that. I am a Skeleton without Flesh and Blood."

Brook heard Nicholas's words, looked at his Body, and let out his signature Laughter.

"So, later I will have people prepare a large number of Small Animals for you to experiment with. Also, Simon, your Stamina, Observation Haki, and Armament Haki still have room for improvement, so later I will have people prepare several Sake Iron Ore shooting Targets for you. Also, later I will notify Vistad to spar with you to enhance your Body Techniques."

Simon was shocked when he heard this, recalling Vistad's Figure of punching down a mountain with one Fist, and without even thinking, he negotiated, "Captain, I am just here to Support you from behind, Body Techniques trained so well…"

Three minutes later.

Simon lay on his back on the ground, his Chest heaving violently, panting heavily, greedily breathing in the Air. His rapid breathing made people worry if he would lose his breath in the next second.

The Guards around were dumbfounded.

Just now, they had witnessed Nicholas's entire process of beating Simon.

It only took less than three minutes? Without seriously attacking, Nicholas made Simon collapse from exhaustion.

Nicholas looked down at Simon, who was lying on the ground panting non-stop, and said, "I wasn't even serious, but you couldn't even last three minutes. With this kind of Stamina, you tell me it's enough? Do you know that Snipers do have an advantage at long Distance, but once a Strongest closes in, are you just going to wait for death? Also, Gun Fighting Technique is indeed good, but what if you run out of Bullets? Are you just going to sit and wait for death?"

It has to be said that although Simon couldn't last three minutes in his hands, that was in close combat. Although pulling away the Distance, in terms of Lightning's Speed, that little Distance was no different from being right in front of him.

But he was already a Top-Tier Powerhouse of the Grand Line. Simon was already quite powerful to be able to do this.

"!!!"

Simon looked at Nicholas with Black Thread all over his face, wanting to say something, but in the end, he said nothing.

Because he knew that with Nicholas's petty Mind's Eye, if he retorted, the Training volume would increase.

"Cough cough, you guys Exercise hard. Also, Katie is the same. Although you are a Chef, a Chef who can't fight is not a good Chef."

Nicholas also directly named Katie, who was bringing drinks for everyone, leaving Katie dumbfounded.

Then he looked at Bell-lin standing next to Katie, "Um, Bell-lin is fine."

"..."

Everyone was speechless. This differential treatment was a bit too obvious, wasn't it?

Time passed.

Soon, half a month passed in a flash.

In the process of helping Small Animals attain Buddhahood day and night, Brook's Ability proficiency steadily increased. Although it was still far from Nicholas's requirements, there was progress after all.

And although Simon and Katie's Strength increase was not obvious, their Stamina was significantly stronger than before.

Sea Surface outside Wano Country.

A Giant Pirate Ship was forced to stop on the Sea Surface by three Ships with White Dance Flag flags pulled by Giant Goldfish.

On the Deck of the Pirate Ship, there were many Pirates lying lifelessly.

The Pirates, who were usually fierce and mighty on the Sea, were now being driven like Beasts, concentrated in the center of the Deck.

"Captain Clinton, what the hell is going on!"

On the Deck, a Pirate holding a Weapon looked at the People surrounding them and couldn't help but ask.

The sturdy Pirate called Captain Clinton swept his cold Eyes over the Samurai who were faintly surrounding them.

"How the hell would I know? I've never seen these guys in this Sea Area before. However, there are Samurai in Wano Country not far from here, but those guys would never leave there."

"Who are you people, why are you attacking us?"

Holding his Weapon, Clinton looked at the Samurai surrounding him and questioned. If it were ordinary Enemies, he would definitely start a firefight without saying a word.

But the problem now was that he couldn't win. Just the Swordsman who could cut Iron and master Haki Encasement numbered more than a dozen, not to mention the three guys leading them who could unleash Flying Slash.
