On November 3, Year 1 of the Alliance, there were four months left until the first Pokémon Battle Tournament.
But today was an important day.
After being immersed in the Armament Haki of numerous powerhouses, Bisharp's blades had almost completely transformed into 'black'. Only the axe blade on his forehead remained a dark silver color.
Once Bisharp defeated three Bisharps with 'leader credentials', he could evolve into a 'Kingambit'.
"You've been in this world for a year and two months now... about the same as me."
On the plains outside Alliance City, Dak was sparring with Bisharp.
Bisharp was now at Lv.55, with strength comparable to Zoro's during the Dressrosa arc. Normally, a Lv.55 Bisharp wouldn't be this powerful, roughly equivalent to a newly promoted Vice Admiral.
However, this Bisharp also mastered exceptional swordsmanship and emperor-level Armament Haki, making him far superior to other Bisharps.
Since taking Bisharp in, he had been continuously honing his physique and Armament Haki.
The ten levels he had gained were purely from physical training, with little combat involved.
Training his physique essentially meant getting beaten up.
Today he was pummeled by Garp, tomorrow by Zephyr, and occasionally by Sengoku.
And it wasn't ordinary punches but those infused with Armament Haki.
Day after day, Bisharp's physique improved tremendously.
However, against Dak, Bisharp still seemed like a baby, unable to land a single hit.
Dak wasn't using his psychic abilities at all.
With the accumulation of daily tasks, Dak's physical attributes had long surpassed their previous levels.
Strength, agility, and stamina all reached Lv.7, the average physique of a high-ranking officer. Combined with max-level Armament Haki and max-level Observation Haki, which Bisharp hadn't learned, it was impossible for Bisharp to touch Dak.
Apart from his improved attributes, Dak's [Breeding] ability had also reached Lv.8.
Though not yet a breeding master, he was considered a breeding elite, and this ability was honed step by step.
Although it wasn't explicitly mentioned, all Pokémon in the Safari Zone, breeding base, and Pokémon Academy were nurtured by Dak. Others merely handled 'feeding'.
Every Pokémon species had a tailored breeding plan and specialized food crafted by Dak through personal exploration.
Thus, Dak's breeding skills were at a 'Champion' level, surpassing Brock and Cilan.
Additionally, during the battle with Bisharp, Dak didn't use the Door-Door Fruit's abilities.
The Door-Door Fruit's ability had already been maxed out through a previous lottery, and Dak didn't want to use it against Bisharp, as it would be overkill.
The doors created by the Door-Door Fruit, when closed, existed in a 'conceptual' state.
At that moment, the door essentially cut off two worlds: the real world and the world inside the door, not just air or space.
If someone was halfway through the door, with one half in the real world and the other in the door world, closing the door would sever them, leaving them utterly disconnected.
Even Logia fruit users would struggle to survive.
Of course, Dak hadn't tested this usage.
Firstly, he wasn't interested in battles.
Secondly, no one in this world dared to trouble him anymore.
Given Dak's current strength, handling Bisharp was relatively easy.
Dak wasn't specifically taking a day to bully Bisharp but rather helping him warm up.
After all, Dak would soon summon three Bisharp groups for Bisharp to engage in a series of battles.
Bisharp hadn't fought in a while, so Dak wanted to help him get back in the groove.
"Ready?"
Dak asked Bisharp, who nodded.
Without further ado, Dak opened the Pokémon Mall, searching for suitable Bisharp groups.
There were no specific requirements, so he chose three small groups, each with five or six Pawniards.
Such small groups typically had weaker Bisharps, saving Bisharp time in defeating them.
Dak didn't see the need to drag this out.
If Bisharp wanted to fight strong or evenly matched opponents, Dak could find plenty without wasting time now.
Three groups appeared on the plains.
The three Bisharps with 'leader credentials' immediately focused on the other Bisharps present.
Without a Kingambit's suppression, Bisharps couldn't coexist, even those without leader credentials would be expelled from the group.
Logically, Dak's Bisharp, without leader credentials, should be the least respected.
However, the menacing black blades on Dak's Bisharp intimidated the newly appeared Bisharps, who all focused on him.
About fifteen Pawniards watched the scene, understanding what was happening.
It was a new leadership contest, and they might be getting a new leader.
Usually, in such situations, Pawniards wouldn't intervene, and Bisharps wouldn't allow them to.
"Bisharp."
Dak's Bisharp didn't hesitate, charging at the three Bisharps.
He intended to take on all three at once.
Though he had been beaten for half a year, Bisharp was well aware of his strength.
He knew his beatings were due to Dak's superior power, not his own weakness.
At least against these three new Bisharps, he was confident.
The three Bisharps exchanged glances, feeling severely provoked, and charged at him.
Few Bisharps avoided battles, as doing so would be a disgrace comparable to a damaged blade, more humiliating than losing.
This was a one-sided battle, so much so that it defied description.
In short, the three wild Bisharps weren't even qualified to clash blades with Dak's Bisharp.
Blade clashing involved testing each other's blade strength, a 'feint' attack method among Bisharps.
But how could wild Bisharps, with meager sustenance, compare to a well-fed, heavily trained Bisharp?
After the blade clash, the wild Bisharps' blades were already damaged.
"Bisharp?!" x3
The three Bisharps were utterly shocked.
Such a gap was almost unheard of in the wild, where evolving to Bisharp meant reaching a strength threshold, without significant disparities.
But today, they faced an exception.
The disparity left them too scared to engage Dak's Bisharp in close combat.
For Bisharps, not fighting up close was futile.
In a few minutes, the wild Bisharps were down.
Dak's Bisharp then began to evolve, his form visibly changing.
The slender frame grew taller and broader.
He evolved into a majestic Kingambit.
However, unlike typical Kingambits, his blades, usually white, turned jet black, and his golden armor and axe blade became dark gold.
The most noticeable change, besides color, was his size.
Influenced by the One Piece world, this Kingambit's height was 3 meters, compared to the average 2 meters, and he weighed about 180 kg.
[Assessing Aptitude]
Orange light surrounded the Kingambit as Dak smiled.
Success.
"Congratulations, Kingambit. From today, you have your own group."
Dak pointed behind the Kingambit.
The three defeated Bisharps and their Pawniards knelt before the Kingambit.
Their axe blades had turned silver, indicating they were no longer leaders.
"..."
The Kingambit glanced back, then at Dak, shaking his head.
Dak understood his meaning.
"It's okay. You can take your group to Isshin Dojo. Maybe they can form partnerships with the students and teachers there."
"..."
Dak persuaded the Kingambit, who nodded.
Dak then sent the Kingambit and his group back to Alliance City, planning to take them to Shimotsuki Village in the evening.
Now, it was time to check the completed main task.
