Chapter 3: 03 Zephyr Elite Training Camp
"Anyway, your pursuit is a bit extreme. Even if you end up in the hospital later, the Marines won't punish you in any way. Do you understand?"
Zephyr said.
What makes Lynch more gratefull is that the world of romance is still relatively open.
In his previous life, Lynch's behavior would have already landed him in trouble.
Zephyr listened well at first, but the more he listened, the more he felt something was wrong. He looked at Lynch with a strange look, "I hope you really understand."
"See you tonight, Teacher Zephyr."
After seeing Zephyr off, Lynch found a secluded corner and began practicing Moonwalk.
At half past five, just after the peak meal period, Lynch quickly went to finish dinner.
As for the dormitory, he doesn't dare to go back now. There's definitely a group of "flower guardians" guarding the door.
At six o'clock, the four of them arrived at the forest behind Training Ground No. 3 on time.
"The reason I asked you three to come here at night is because you're all geniuses."
Zephyr said earnestly: "Geniuses shouldn't be treated like ordinary people. That would only bury your talents. From now on, you'll gather here at six o'clock every night, and I'll personally train you."
Hearing this, the three of them were pleasantly surprised.
A former Marine Admiral was willing to personally train them, which was a great opportunity.
"Others in the elite camp, learning new Marine Six Styles before mastering Moonwalk will only hinder them."
"You're different. Hina and Lynch, you two have already learned Moonwalk. Smoker, you work hard and fast. You can definitely start learning the next Marine Six Styles."
"Since ancient times, "Moonwalk" and "Shave" have been inseparable. They both reach the same goal by different paths. Next, I'll explain the techniques of "Shave"."
The three of them stood at attention, afraid of missing a single word.
At this time, Zephyr glanced at Smoker and said, "Listen together, but don't start learning it yet. You'll come to the forest with me later to learn Moonwalk first, and then we'll move on to this."
"Yes." Smoker nodded.
Zephyr continued: "Both rely on the power of the legs to accelerate. The only difference between Moonwalk and Shave is that Moonwalk requires the speed of stepping on the air to exceed a certain level in order to generate the thrust of the shock wave and lift the person into the air. Shave, on the other hand, involves rapidly stepping on the ground dozens of times in one second, generating a reaction force that increases speed..."
Having mastered the pinnacle of Moonwalk, Lynch found this knowledge quite handy.
Even though the system didn't appear this time, Lynch quickly mastered "Shave".
On the other hand, Smoker and Hina hadn't started yet.
Zephyr was very satisfied when he saw this; this kid is indeed a genius.
But Lynch soon discovered a fatal problem: this entry-level Shave couldn't turn!
If he didn't grasp the timing well in battle, wouldn't he end up running into someone's blade?
While the three of them were practicing, there was suddenly a rush of footsteps approaching from far away, and Lynch hear some of their conversation.
"Hurry, hurry up, we might be able to save some people if we arrive earlier!"
"Those hateful beasts, how dare they do this!"
Zephyr frowned and reached out to stop one of them.
"Ze... Zephyr Admiral!"
The middle-aged Marine was startled and quickly saluted.
"What happened? And I'm no longer an Admiral,"
Zephyr said.
"We received news that a powerful pirate group was massacring villages. We were ordered to hunt down and eliminate them. Before that, they had massacred ten villages and towns."
"It's really pirates again!"
Zephyr barely concealed the disgust on his face.
"As long as those bastards are still roaming in the seas, I don't know how many people will be ruined because of them. Pirates shouldn't exist!"
"Teacher Zephyr..."
Hina looked at Zephyr worriedly. The current Zephyr was completely different from his usual generous elder image.
Under the moonlight, he even looked a little ferocious.
"You guys go back first."
Zephyr turned back to Lynch and the others, then said the middle-aged Marine. "I'll go with you!"
"Huh?!"
The middle-aged Marine looked at Zephyr in bewilderment, then burst into ecstasy. "Please come with me."
Although the pirates were extremely ferocious, with the help of the legendary Black Arm Zephyr, they could be captured. More villagers would definitely be saved.
As Lynch watched the two figures talking, he found himself lost in thought.
It was then that the system's sound rang in his mind.
[A new life choice is available.]
[Option 1: Follow Zephyr's instructions and return to the dormitory. Reward: Paramecia·Corruption Fruit.]
[Option 2: Engage in Color and Martial Arts, stay and defeat Smoker, or request stockings from Hina. Reward: Randomly upgrade an existing ability to its limit.]
[Option 3: Actively follow Zephyr to fight the pirates. Reward: Access to the system store.]
After a brief pause, Lynch called Zephyr, "Teacher Zephyr."
Without further thought, he made his decision. If he was going to eat a Devil Fruit, it had to be of the highest quality. Otherwise, it wasn't worth it.
Although the reward for option two is also great, he doesn't seem to be able to beat Smoker yet.
Asking Hina for her stockings seemed like a risky proposition, with potential consequences he could already imagine.
Compared with options one and two, option three is obviously more tempting. He is looking forward to what will be available in the system mall.
"What's the matter?" Zephyr asked solemnly.
"Can I go with you, Teacher Zephyr?" Lynch begged.
"Why?" Zephyr's expression turned serious. "Give me a reason. That level of battle is too dangerous for you."
"Because I want to fight alongside you, Teacher Zephyr," Lynch responded decisively. "Besides, this is what you said: geniuses should not be treated like ordinary people. I believe this will be a good experience."
"You stubborn kid..."
Zephyr's mood was both proud and conflicted at the moment. Killing pirates wasn't Lynch's responsibility.
In Zephyr's view, Lynch's request to join the battlefield was likely driven by a lack of trust in him.
Had he underestimated him?
It seems that after retiring from the position of Admiral many years ago, many Marines seem to have forgotten that he still holds the title of Black Arm.
At 58 years old, his age hasn't affected his fighting prowess one bit.
"If you want to come, then come. This will indeed be a good experience,"
Zephyr declared as he strode toward the harbor. His confident voice echoed: "You two come along. No one can harm my students under my watch!"
"Yes! Teacher Zephyr."
The three said in unison, and they could all see the joy in each other's eyes
