[Ding! Your partner Kalifa defeated the 'Zombie Ryuma, a swordsman in the Sea-Breaking Realm,' and upgraded her swordsmanship to the Sky-Cutting Realm.]
[Personal attributes have been refreshed, please check them yourself.]
[Name: Kalifa]
[Age: 25 years old]
[Weapon: Katen Kyōkotsu]
[Life Force: 10,330, A level]
[Sword Realm: Sky-Cutting level]
[Swordsmanship Style: Beast Breathing, Brook Single-Sword Style]
[Abilities: Marine Six Styles, Bubble-Bubble Fruit, Beginner Armament Haki]
"Congratulations, Kalifa. This way, you'll also be a swordsman who can perform flying slashes. Coupled with the power of Spatial Awareness you demonstrated before, maybe it won't be long before you can comprehend Observation Haki on your own."
Ikki said with a smile as he looked at the blonde beauty walking out of the Training Arena.
In the battle just now, Ikki saw it quite clearly. Kalifa was deliberately using the "Spatial Awareness" ability of Beast Breathing to fight, and there were already some prototypes of Observation Haki.
Just now, Nico Robin and Vivi had also completed the advancement of their swordsmanship. Now, the only one in the fleet who couldn't bear the title of swordsman was Perona, who had just joined the Explorer.
"It's all because of your ability that I can grow so fast."
Kalifa walked up to Ikki with a faint smile on her face. Obviously, she was also quite happy about the advancement in strength.
On the side, Perona swallowed. Although she didn't know why Kalifa, Vivi, and Nico Robin fought with Zoro and Zombie Ryuma's swordsman shadows before, after watching the three people's fighting style, Perona once again understood that she was no match for these three women.
Even if she used the Hollow-Hollow Fruit, she didn't have an advantage in speed.
"It's up to this little girl to challenge next."
Nojiko put her hands on Perona's shoulders and said with a smile.
"No need for the moment. With her current temperament and fighting ability, she may not be able to defeat the swordsman shadow I arranged for her. After she's been exercising in the gym for a while, she'll try to master the 'Flame Breathing' sword style. Also, Nojiko, the little girl you're talking about is already 23 years old - she's older than you."
Ikki shook his head.
"Huh? Is she already 23 years old? I can't tell at all."
Nojiko stretched out her hand in surprise and pinched Perona's little face. The expression on her face was obviously a little surprised.
"Wha... what, I'm really 23 years old. Wait, why do you know that? I haven't told you."
Perona looked at Ikki with some confusion.
But Ikki didn't answer her. It was impossible to tell Perona that he learned her identity information through the personal attributes panel of the system.
He was now thinking more about how to improve Perona's power. By the way, it would improve Perona's combat awareness.
Like Kalifa said, Perona was very timid. It was fine when she was at an advantage, but once she was at a disadvantage, this woman might want to run away.
Ikki felt that he would supervise her training and practice in the future, and at the same time hone her fighting consciousness.
Although the "Beginner Swordsman Kyojuro Rengoku" given by the system wasn't the Kyojuro who became a Hashira, its life force wasn't lower than the current Perona.
If the somewhat timid Perona were to fight Kyojuro, Ikki felt that she was more likely to lose. It would be better to wait until her life force level had been upgraded for a period of time before doing the challenge.
"Now, let's take a look at this."
Ikki pulled out the black knife from Perona's waist and threw it toward the center of the arena.
Along with a strong light emanating from the body of Tenken, Ikki and others came to the familiar wasteland again.
"Don't worry, Perona. This is the place to demonstrate the Zanpakutō Tenken that he gave you. After the demonstration is over, we'll go back safely."
Nojiko patted Perona on the shoulder and said.
Perona looked in the direction Nojiko pointed and found a tall man with a dog's head standing hundreds of meters away. In front of the man, there was a Menos Grande that was tens of meters tall.
"So... so huge!"
Perona glanced at the Menos Grande in amazement, but soon her attention was attracted by the dog-headed man holding a black knife.
She saw him kick his feet on the ground, and his figure instantly rose dozens of meters, reaching the same height as the Menos Grande's head.
"Roar, Tenken!"
With a sharp shout, a huge arm suddenly appeared beside the dog-headed man, and the front part of the arm was holding a large sword that was several times larger than the size of the dog-headed man's blade.
The man waved the black knife in his hand vigorously, and the huge arm beside him waved the large sword in his hand along with his movements.
The broadsword brought up a gust of wind, and hit the Menos Grande's mask directly with a huge roar. The hard mask shattered in an instant, and the Menos Grande itself disappeared into the air in an instant.
"It's amazing! Such a big giant was chopped down in one strike. What are the arms and the big sword beside the dog-headed man?"
Perona murmured, with a look of confusion on her face.
"That one is actually a wolf named Komamura Sajin. And his Zanpakutō Tenken is a powerful Zanpakutō with pure destructive power. I integrated its power into the black sword Shusui. That's why the current black sword is no longer Shusui, but Tenken."
"Perona, what you just saw is Tenken's Shikai. After the Shikai, part of the body of the 'Kokujō Tengen Myō'ō' and the huge sword will appear next to the user. Ordinary people would be defeated by just one blow from this sword. I think even the giants in this world will be defeated when faced with this move."
The corner of Ikki's mouth rose. In his opinion, this sword was completely comparable to the giants' 'Hakoku'!
"Being able to match the power of the giants... So powerful."
Perona's eyes glowed.
"Wait a minute, what is the Kokujō Tengen Myō'ō?"
