Chapter 22: Chapter 22 - Sea King meat and The Frist Hunt
After the Sea King barbecue party with the students of Isshin Dojo, the next day we resumed our regular training. However, I couldn't ignore the subtle changes I felt in my body. With careful sensitivity, I noticed that my body felt lighter and stronger than before. I began to wonder what could be the cause of this change.
After some thought, memories of the delicious Sea King meat I had eaten the night before crossed my mind. Could this change be attributed to the meat? I became increasingly curious to find out and verify this speculation. Despite having feasted the previous night, there were still plenty of leftover Sea King meat. With a burning curiosity, I decided to test my hypothesis.
Over the following week, I regularly consumed the remaining Sea King meat. I carefully conducted tests and observed my body. And finally, the results were revealed.
In my research, I discovered that Sea King meat possesses remarkable properties and has the potential to provide significant health benefits.
Firstly, I found that Sea King meat is rich in important nutrients such as protein, amino acids, and healthy fats. The protein and essential amino acids in this meat play a crucial role in growth, repair, and maintenance of body tissues. Additionally, the healthy fats it contains can support nervous system function and heart health.
Furthermore, I found the presence of bioactive compounds in Sea King meat. These compounds have the potential to enhance immune function, reduce inflammation, and accelerate recovery processes after exercise or injury. The existence of these compounds explains why my body quickly recovered from exercise-induced soreness after consuming Sea King meat.
Moreover, I also discovered that Sea King meat contains powerful antioxidant compounds. These compounds help fight free radicals in the body that can cause cellular damage. Regular consumption of Sea King meat can help maintain cellular health and prolong the lifespan of body cells.
From these findings, I can conclude that Sea King meat has the potential to enhance vitality and human health. The abundant nutrients, bioactive compounds, and antioxidants it contains work synergistically to strengthen the immune system, accelerate recovery, and maintain overall bodily functions.
After realizing the health benefits of Sea King meat for my body, I started increasing my intake of the meat in larger quantities. I planned meals that incorporated Sea King meat every day, whether in the form of grilled dishes, stir-fries, or soups.
My health and physical strength improved along with the increased consumption of Sea King meat. I felt abundant energy every time I went through training at Isshin Dojo. My strength increased significantly, and my physical endurance sharpened.
Upon learning about the benefits of Sea King meat, I immediately informed Master Koshiro. When I explained my findings to him, he fell silent for a moment after listening to my explanation. Then, he acknowledged that the discovery was very beneficial to the Dojo.
However, I was surprised when Master Koshiro forbade me from seeking out Sea King meat. I felt momentarily confused when he expressed this prohibition. He then explained his reason, stating that he considered it too dangerous and risky to confront the Sea King. He realized that the risks outweighed the benefits that could be gained.
Although I didn't want to give up on my efforts to accelerate my strength improvement, I started thinking rationally. What Master Koshiro said had a strong basis. I realized that if I only thought about the benefits, it would be too reckless. The risk involved in battling the Sea King was very high, especially if I were to face a larger and stronger Sea King than I had ever fought before.
In a frustrated state, I felt the need to find a solution to obtain more Sea King meat or discover a safer way to catch Sea Kings. I realized that I needed to think more carefully and find alternatives that didn't involve significant risks.
Feeling frustrated, I felt the need to find a solution to acquire more Sea King meat or discover a safer way to capture Sea Kings. I realized that I needed to think more carefully and explore alternatives that didn't involve significant risks.
After thinking for a while and unable to find a solution, I decided to seek advice from two strong individuals I knew besides Master Koshiro, namely Kuina and Zoro.
After finding them, I explained my discovery and the benefits of Sea King meat once again. They listened attentively and fell silent for a moment. Finally, both of them realized that they also felt a slight increase in strength after consuming Sea King meat. The three of us began to think together about more effective ways to lure and catch Sea Kings.
After much deliberation and finding no adequate solution, Zoro suddenly shouted in frustration. He voiced what was on his mind, saying, "Forget it, let's just use bait. Once the Sea King appears, the three of us will attack it together."
Upon hearing Zoro's shout, I had to admit that it was the most sensible idea. With my Kenbunshoku Haki ability, Kuina's speed, and Zoro's strength, our chances of successfully battling the Sea King should be very high.
After strategizing on how to lure the Sea King, we searched for the appropriate bait. Without a doubt, the remaining Sea King meat at the Dojo was the best choice as bait. Although there was only a small amount left from the Sea King I had fought before, we made the most of it.
We found a suitable location on the coast and discovered a comfortable hiding spot. This was important to ensure that we were always ready to launch a surprise attack on the Sea King.
Carefully tying the bait, we threw it into the sea. The meat sank into the water, and we hoped its aroma would attract the attention of the Sea King.
We waited patiently, observing any signs of the Sea King's presence. The moment was tense and filled with anticipation, but we had confidence in our abilities and preparations.
After waiting for some time without any movement in the sea, we began to feel bored. I saw Zoro starting to practice with his sword, while Kuina also joined in the training from her hiding spot. I remained focused, using my Kenbunshoku Haki to observe the ocean.
Several hours passed without any visible signs. Confusion started to cloud my mind. I began to wonder if our plan had failed. I sighed, feeling unlucky at that moment. However, just as I started to feel bored and desperate, a sudden, swift movement occurred in the sea.
I stood up in surprise as my Kenbunshoku Haki detected the phenomenon. I immediately signaled Zoro and Kuina. They looked at me and nodded, understanding what I meant.
Suddenly, we saw a massive wave and the giant body emerging from the depths of the sea. The Sea King had arrived! With its large body, I noticed it was slightly bigger than the one I had fought before, but it was still an unmatched aquatic creature compared to any marine life I encountered in my early life. In an instant, we prepared to launch our attack from our hiding spot, ready to fight.
Kuina darted forward with lightning speed, evading the Sea King's attacks with agility. Zoro swung his sword skillfully, launching deadly strikes that shook the air. Meanwhile, I utilized my Kenbunshoku Haki to predict the Sea King's movements and evade with precision.
A fierce battle ensued between us and the raging Sea King. We protected and cooperated with each other, utilizing our respective strengths and skills to defeat this ferocious sea creature.
Shortly after, following a hard-fought battle, we managed to defeat the Sea King with Kuina successfully cutting off its head. Victory emanated joy and relief within us. We felt proud and satisfied with this achievement.
With hearts full of happiness, we returned to the Dojo, bringing back the Sea King meat we had successfully obtained.
CREATORS' THOUGHTS 
eggsy
eggsy Sea Kings are one of the magical animal in the world of One Piece, I think why their bodies can be so big there are 2 factors in my opinion, because they adapt to harsh environments and have enormous vitality in their bodies. with these 2 factors it would be very strange if sea king meat did not have a very good content to be consumed to increase strength.
