Chapter 195: The Surprise Brought by Mastering the Six Powers
During this period, Adrian has taken on three Sea Emperors in succession. Regardless of whether they are future or present ones, none have dropped the much-anticipated minion-clearing skill, the Conqueror's Haki.
Even from the precious two-out-of-five selection opportunity from the young Kaido, there was still no option for Conqueror's Haki.
Adrian suspects that the panel might require him to wait until Shanks, the Red-Haired, fully matures before he can obtain the Conqueror's Haki from him.
But thinking it over…
He actually feels that might not be too bad.
After all, from the countless battle analysis reports by fans in his previous life, everyone agreed that Shanks' most formidable skills are the Conqueror's Haki and swordsmanship.
Some fans even speculated that Shanks' Conqueror's Haki might be the strongest among the Four Emperors!
Among the fanbase, there was even a special and unique term for Shanks' Conqueror's Haki — the Domain of the Conqueror…
If he can indeed get Shanks' top-tier Conqueror's Haki in the future, Adrian definitely wouldn't feel it was a loss.
As for awakening Conqueror's Haki by himself,
Given Adrian's personality, it's probably not going to happen in this lifetime.
However, in the bedroom, there might still be a chance…
Cough, cough.
Back to the point.
In the precious two-out-of-five selection opportunity,
First, he eliminated [Thunder Bagua] and [Drunken Hero].
This character specific skill was great but it can be copied easily… Hey, it doesn't mean that I am a copy cat.
As for [Drunken Hero]...
Doesn't he always abstain from smoking and only drink in moderation?
As for the first three options, after pondering for a moment, Adrian made his choices.
[You have acquired the expertise: Intermediate Resilient Life!]
[You have acquired the skill: Dragon's Power!]
His waist shudder, knees weakened, and he twitched slightly…
"Hoo——"
Adrian exhaled a long breath, looking at the newly appeared abilities on his panel, feeling a sense of accomplishment.
'Low-level Resilient Life' was the first expertise he obtained years ago from Muscle Boy Dawson after escaping from the World Government's clutches.
This expertise wasn't particularly useful since Adrian always preferred to resolve battles quickly and avoid dragging things out to the point of relying on endurance.
However, the strength of this expertise was undeniable!
Upgrading it to Intermediate Resilient Life not only doubled the conversion ratio between stamina, life, and energy but also added a 25% resistance boost, showing remarkable effects.
As for why only Intermediate Resilient Life was obtained from Kaido instead of [Advanced] or [Ultimate]…
It's naturally because the current Kaido hasn't reached that level yet.
If it were the Four Emperors level Kaido, Adrian believes he could at least get [Advanced Resilient Life].
Hmm, if he's really lucky.
Between 'Dragon's Power' and [Rapid Healing]…
Adrian didn't hesitate much.
If it were before obtaining the top-tier expertise 'Unmatched Strength', Adrian might have chosen 'Dragon's Power' to enhance his relatively weak strength attribute.
But now…
Adrian still chose 'Dragon's Power'! {Grrr!}
Everyone knows, although he prefers passive (skills),
Adrian's main profession has always been [Swordsman]!
With the 'Unmatched Strength' expertise, Adrian's strength attribute has reached the top level, but it's not to the level where it is at the top.
Now, with the addition of 'Dragon's Power', his strength attribute would definitely surpass a thousand points!
Even with the 'Heavy Strike Specialization' boost, Adrian's current maximum strength surpasses his highest intelligence attribute by several tens of points!
As a swordsman, he finally has something to be proud of! {What the heck are you so proud of now that you weren't before?}
Besides the two Expertise and abilities, Adrian also gained 1 billion experience points.
Opening the skill panel, Adrian finally saw the 'Six Powers' skills he had neglected for a long time.
Ever since obtaining the max-level Ghostly Physique ability, most of the Six Powers abilities were left unused, only being employed occasionally.
With a long and indefinite upgrade path, Adrian decided to invest the experience points and max out the remaining six abilities, excluding 'Shave', which was already maxed!
Maxing out a skill grants 2 skill points as a reward.
This time, Adrian earned 10 precious skill points, bringing his total skill points to 26.
However, the surprises brought by maxing out the Six Powers weren't just the skill points.
The panel notifications kept flooding in.
[Iron Body has been maxed out!]
[You have acquired the Armament Haki trait: Iron-like Hardness!]
[Paper Art has been maxed out!]
[You have acquired the Observation Haki trait: Airflow Sensing!]
[Finger Gun has been maxed out!]
[You have acquired the skill 'Flying Finger Gun'!]
[All Six Powers have been maxed out!]
[You have acquired the skill 'Ultimate Six Powers: Six King Gun'!]
[Life Return has been maxed out!]
[You have acquired the skill 'Disguise'!]
Adrian opened each ability description one by one.
[Iron-like Hardness]: By rigorously training your body and abilities, when using Armament Haki, you gain a hardness comparable to steel, making bullets and swords unable to penetrate your defense.
[Airflow Sensing]: When using Observation Haki, you can keenly perceive the airflow changes caused by your opponent's movements.
[Flying Finger Gun]: A skill obtained by mastering the Finger Gun, concentrating all your strength into your finger to shoot an air bullet with strong penetrating power, capable of attacking distant enemies.
[Ultimate Six Powers: Six King Gun]: The ultimate skill mastered by those who perfect the Six Powers, using both hands to release an impact wave-like attack.
[Disguise]: Under the effect of Life Return, you can freely control any part of your body, altering your appearance, height, and build. The expansion/shrinkage of your body cannot exceed one-third of the original size, and the elongation/shortening cannot exceed one-third of the original height.
These ability rewards were all within Adrian's expectations, yet they made sense upon reflection.
Among the Six Powers, two abilities stand out: [Iron Body] and [Paper Art].
As soon as the Haki concept was introduced, many people speculated that [Iron Body] and [Paper Art] were the prototypes of the Six Powers or perhaps the Navy and World Government versions of the Six Powers.
Adrian agreed with this theory, just as the Wano Country has its own term for Armament Haki, [Ryūō], or Skypiea's Observation Haki, Mantra It's possible that different places have different names for the two types of Haki.
The panel's recognition of these two traits undoubtedly confirms such speculation.
However, the skill descriptions of these two traits are essentially replicas of 'Iron Body' and 'Paper Art', lacking any novelty.
Adrian couldn't help but complain a bit in his heart.
The skill 'Flying Finger Gun', obtained by maxing out 'Finger Gun', was also shown in the original series, including the advanced version of the flame Flying Finger Gun.
As for why 'Shave', 'Moonwalk', and 'Tempest Kick' didn't yield any reward skills when maxed out, it's understandable.
'Shave' is simply a straightforward speed burst skill, and 'Tempest Kick' is just a simple air slash technique.
As for 'Moonwalk', there are rumors that this Six Power technique is merely an application of 'Shave'.
These three Six Power skills don't have any high-end upgrade versions, hence no corresponding skill comprehension.
The skill 'Six King Gun' is somewhat redundant for Adrian now. No matter how you look at it, the Ghostly Cannon's advantages far surpass the Six King Gun.
As for [Disguise], it is what it is. The ability of [Life Return] is pretty much like this…
Adrian tugged at his waistband, using the Disguise ability, and suddenly grew 8 cm taller.
"Hiss~ Seems like I pulled something!"
A slight mishap caused Adrian to wince.
After organizing all his gains, Adrian closed the panel and turned his attention back to the rolling sea, where the Azure Dragon had yet to emerge from the ocean.
"Hang in there, horned big brother who loves the kanabo. I'm hoping to get more Expertise and skills from you!"
A flash of red light crossed Adrian's eyes as his max-level Observation Haki instantly probed the deep sea.
"Here's a parting gift for you, Kaido."
The nearly dissipated Thousand-Armed Buddha fired the last Ghostly Cannon. The blue beam shot into the sea like a storm, blasting terrifyingly large holes in the water, with waves falling like heavy rain.
After finishing all this, Adrian leisurely waved and left, heading inland towards Wano Country.
