Apo Isko, is now more familiar with the talking book.
He also realized how primitive they were, because the basic things and information that provided by the talking book is way too advanced for them.
Even the basic tools for construction such as hammer, nails, lumber, cement and other common things is not yet known by their tribe and he only discovered it through the talking book.
And it is not different on how primitive they were when it comes to their food and other necessities like their Shelter & Clothes.
They also don't have the primary tools or household apparatus like kitchen utensils, furniture and other things present on a basic house in the modern day. But with the help of the Talking Book, they started to learn and adapt to a more sophisticated standard of living compared to their primitive lives.
In just a week, the village became more advanced.
Walls made of Clay Bricks, some roofs were made of woven nipa, bamboo tiles, or wild beast's hide, they also learned to make windows for proper ventilation and a detachable door made of bamboo strips. Wooden fences, water well, Fire torches, Rock Fire Stoves, Wooden stools and tables, and other things that is useful was produced by the Tribesmen.
From Prehistoric Way of Living to Neolithic in just a week is real quick!
The funny thing is they were way too advanced in terms of agriculture and the tools they were also following an advance systematic farming and food processing. They also know a lot of method on preserving food.
There were also Carts with wooden wheels, raft for the river, and it was crafted by Apo Tasyo.
He also imparted weapon making to the other tribesmen.
Spears were the most suitable for the Tribesmen, they can thrust, slice, poke, & any random moves to hit the target while maintaining a safe distance. They can also throw the spears making it a versatile weapon. Rock-blade tip and bamboo body is what their spear is made of.
Apo Isko also ordered the tribesmen to make watch towers so they can watch out for wild beasts attack or Invaders that may intrude their territory.
Using Rock-blade, they were making ladders on the trunks of the large trees and on top of the trees, they made a bamboo floor on the large branches and covered it with walls using weaved leaves and grasses which is camouflaging to the tree leaves.
If you will not observe it closely, you will not notice that it was a watchtower.
They're now slowly upgrading their village.
Fortifying the defense and improving their weapons.
Now, they were only lacking with fighting capabilities.
Most of them only learned how to fight using fists, legs, and their whole body:
Punch and Kick were the basic brawl technique that you will learn instinctively
Tackle, Grapple, and Take Down were also common when it comes to brawl
Headbutt, Elbow & Knee strikes, and tripping comes handy when in close combat.
But there's no proper training or fighting knowledge were handed down by their ancestors.
They were all barbaric fighters or they can only win by using brute force, speed, endurance, and luck.
How can they match the other tribes who learned low tier martial arts and undergoes training?
Aren't they asking for a beating when the Summer-End Meeting comes? Are they going home without winning a single female from other tribes? Of course, they will not let it happen.
That's why this time, Apo Isko will do his best to bring glory to the Pacific Tribesmen.
He asked the talking book about fighting techniques, training, and body conditioning.
He chose the most effective and basic martial art that the Talking book provided.
Vale Tudo is an unarmed, full-contact martial arts and by using all parts of the body to inflict damage or defeat the opponent by knocking out or by submission.
This is similar to the techniques used by the fighters of current MMA or Fighting Sports.
HIIT or High Intensity Interval Training piqued Apo Isko's interest.
In a short span of time, they can get results immediately.
Body conditioning, includes appropriate diet and the daily routine needed which includes stretching, massaging, meditation and many things that you can see on Yoga sessions.
Those who will participate on the upcoming Summer-End Meeting with other tribes were required to undergo the Training Plan prepared by Apo Isko. He carefully selected the best methods that will give exponential results to the Tribesmen.
Apo Bangis, the father of Lakas of the 10 capable men of the pacific tribe.
He belongs to the age bracket of Apo Tasyo and Inang Mabailan.
Lakas inherited the strong physique of his father.
Apo Isko imparted to Apo Bangis the training plan which includes the martial arts that will be used to trainthose who will participate in Summer-End Meeting's Duels.
These duels were not designed just to prove who's stronger, it will also determine who's more capable and will become the basis for having a wife.
Like cock-fights, there will be betting system for the participating tribes.
To gain more assets and fame, they need to show-off and give it their best shot!
Otherwise they have to wait for the next meeting just to get a glimpse of the beauties from the other tribes.

章 15: Impending Chaos
In the same world.
There's another set of islands above the Pacific Archipelago.
Unlike the savage and primitive looks of the Islanders, the people living here wear robes and wooden sandals for both men or women.
Men often carry a weapon behind their back or beside their waste with them.
Unlike the western weapon called sword which is a long metal blade with both sides sharp and always exposed, the weapon of the people here were single bladed and always sheathed.
There's no single hint of savageness to their moves. They were as serene as stagnant waters without ripples.
Cherry Blossoms can be seen in every corner of the streets, lots of people were walking casually.
A chinky eyed man with pale skin and slim physique, equipped with a 'Katana' entered a blacksmith's workshop.
An old man holding a hammer and tongs stopped forging a blade when the chinky-eyed man entered.
"Mitsurugi-dono, after forging a thousand blades we've depleted a decade's supply of metals. We can make another 50 blades within a week by using the remaining supply. Can these lowly blacksmith know the reason of sudden bulk purchase of blades?"
"It's a secret information that only to us generals is available". But it won't be long before the Emperor announced it, so I will tell you what happened. We are currently preparing for a large scale war. The ZhongHua Oriental Palace wants our Emperor to surrender, he promised that we'll become a branch and our emperor will become the leader."
"I know that our country's power can't be compared to them, but we're not that easy to bully. I believe our Emperor will not surrender. We Nippons don't need their backing. We have shinobis, samurais, blacksmiths, kyudos, and our soldiers don't lack courage. We'd rather die than to surrender to our enemies." the old man said with conviction.
"Yes, that's why we're preparing for the worst when the emperor's reply reached the ZhongHua's Emperor. The delegates from ZhongHua may take 2 months to travel back. The 2 months might be short, but it's enough for us to prepare. After a week, the Emperor will announce and will force all the women, children and elders to evacuate. All men that is capable to fight will be trained. We will also prepare our defense on the borders to intercept all intruders. Shinobis assigned spies to gather Intel on what's happening outside."
In ZhongHua Oriental Palace, a man wearing dragon robe and a dragon crown sits in a big golden throne. A line of scholars on the left and a line of military officials on the right.
Every person here is a distinguished man, but they will all vow in front of the Emperor.
They were discussing or rather each of them reports to the emperor about the current state or the latest events unfolding. Every detail is important and may affect hundreds or thousands of peoples.
They were currently unifying the whole Oriental Continent because the Emperor is very ambitious as he wants to conquer the whole world to trample and reign over the other emperors, kings and leaders of all places. Like a Dragon among the other Hua zodiac.
Little did he know that there's also another Kingdom that wants to unify the whole world.
But not through Violence but by sharing their belief or faith. They want to lead a crusade to reclaim the promised land. But since they don't know where the promised land lies, they want to conquer the whole world and find the promised land or they can choose the best place and consider it as the promised land instead.
Those who opposed them will be labelled as heretics and will be judged or killed because they firmly believed that they need to do this in order to purge the evilness on their soul.
Those who will join their crusade will be rewarded and trained as defenders or soldiers of their faith, they will also choose stronger soldiers among them and appoint them to a higher rank.
They were converting weak territories, small cities, random village, or any of those who were not backed by the stronger Faction. This helps them to recruit small forces and increase their quantity and they don't bother with the Quality as these small forces can be raised by a notch if they will be trained by the Paladin's Holy Kingdom. Weak soldiers will become cannon fodders and stronger ones will be recruited to become part of their elite forces.
There's an old saying, "The news have wings and the ground have ears."
Wherever and whenever, "The walls have ears!"
Even the tiny palace of the Nippons can spy inside a bigger palace of the ZhongHua.
The Impending chaos spread to all four region.
Unless you're located on a very secluded area or you're secluding yourself from the outside, you'll hear about the prelude to an Intercontinental War.
