Chapter 39: Rocks' Personal Instruction — Conqueror's Haki: Wrapping
[Ding~ Detected that the host's Observation Haki has been upgraded to Top-tier, comprehending: Future Sight!]
The system's notification sound came, but to Rono, it was like the music of the heavens!
Upon reaching the Top-tier, he had actually awakened the special Observation Haki—Future Sight.
This was a special ability of Observation Haki.
In the original story, Katakuri, who had devoted all his energy to training Observation Haki, had cultivated it to this level.
The ability to foresee the immediate future!
Ordinary Observation Haki sharpens the five senses, allowing for a better perception of the surrounding environment, living beings, and changes in aura.
It can also predict an opponent's actions, allowing one to evade in advance.
But its drawback is that if the opponent is experienced in battle and deliberately feigns an attack, it can lead to a failed prediction, resulting in losing the fight, or even one's life!
But the special Observation Haki—Future Sight—allows one to observe a definite future!
One is predicting an opponent's actions and then evading, the other is observing a definite future and then acting!
It's almost instantly clear which one is better!
"I didn't expect this surprise. This completely compensates for my weakness of lacking combat experience!"
Rono was very satisfied with this unexpected joy and couldn't help but nod.
The next moment, Rono began to release his Observation Haki, intending to test out this ability.
His five senses were sharpened to a new height.
Every blade of grass, every flower, every tree within a radius of several hundred meters, as well as the whispers of the Rocks Pirates outside his room, entered his mind.
In the next second, two members of the Rocks Pirates would start fighting because one got the other's clothes dirty.
In the second after that, the one with the Dog-Dog Fruit, Model: Jackal would make the first move.
In the second after that, all the surrounding members of the Rocks Pirates would gather to watch the show, and no one would intervene in the impending fight.
Then, the jackal-form guy would finish off his opponent with a single claw swipe, ending the farce.
And then, everything happened exactly as Rono had foreseen, one by one!
"Interesting... as expected of a technique that can only be comprehended with Top-tier Observation Haki."
Rono couldn't help but marvel at how useful Future Sight was.
In terms of coolness, perhaps the Voice of All Things was far superior to short-term future sight.
But in terms of combat enhancement, Future Sight completely crushed the Voice of All Things!
"Celestial Dragons must die! Not a single one will escape!"
Rono's eyes flashed with furious flames. Nineteen Celestial Dragons!
I don't care if you're some so-called gods. This time, none of you will leave alive!
"Hmm? Someone's coming! It's someone Rocks sent to find me!"
Soon, Rono's Future Sight foresaw the immediate future again.
In a moment, someone would appear outside his room and tell him that Rocks was gathering the officers again.
Sure enough, a voice soon appeared outside Rono's door.
"Captain Rono, Captain Rocks is calling for you."
"Coming right away."
Rono tidied himself up and then went to see Rocks.
When he arrived, Rono found that Whitebeard, Shiki, Silver Axe, Wang Zhi, and the other Division Commanders were all there.
"We were just dismissed, and now Captain Rocks is calling us again. What's he up to?"
Shiki couldn't help but complain in a low voice.
"I don't know. Maybe there's some new intelligence," John guessed.
"Maybe the captain has changed his plans?" Silver Axe also speculated.
Whitebeard, Wang Zhi, and the others also shook their heads, not knowing why Rocks had gathered them again.
"He's going to teach us a technique, Conqueror's Haki Infusion!"
Just then, Rono gave a faint smile. He had already seen the immediate future.
In a moment, Rocks would appear and demonstrate Conqueror's Haki Infusion to them.
"How did you know..." The other Division Commanders were all puzzled.
As soon as his voice fell, a swift figure suddenly appeared before them like a ghost.
"I've called you here now to show you again, Conqueror's Haki Infusion!"
Rocks said after sweeping his gaze over the group.
"Rono... how did you know?"
After Rocks finished speaking, the officers all suddenly turned their faces to Rono!
Their eyes were filled with doubt, shock, and speculation!
How did this guy know the purpose of the captain's summons?
Could it be that Rocks had informed him in advance?
"Oh? Interesting. Have you awakened Future Sight Observation Haki?"
Rocks understood at once. After all, he had also heard what Rono said just now.
"Future Sight? A special Observation Haki?"
Hearing Rocks's words, Whitebeard, Golden Lion, Silver Axe, Wang Zhi, John, and Charlotte Linlin were all taken aback.
They had heard of this high-level Observation Haki, but it was a bitter truth that one had to devote almost all their energy to training Observation Haki to have a chance of awakening it.
With the ambitions of these monsters, it was impossible for them to devote all their energy to practicing Observation Haki.
They also had to train Armament Haki, Conqueror's Haki, swordsmanship, and other abilities.
The way everyone looked at Rono changed again.
After all, Rono was also a powerhouse who cultivated Armament Haki, Conqueror's Haki, and swordsmanship.
But he had awakened Future Sight ahead of them, making everyone very envious.
This guy's talent was truly at a monstrous level.
"I taught you Conqueror's Haki Infusion last time. Have you learned it yet?"
Rocks then spoke, his gaze turning to the other officers besides Rono.
Hearing this, only Whitebeard and Golden Lion were not afraid of Rocks's gaze.
It was clear that these two had already mastered it.
Silver Axe, John, Wang Zhi, and Charlotte Linlin lowered their heads in shame.
It had been half a year since Rocks had last taught them, and they still hadn't learned it.
They couldn't be blamed; this kind of thing required talent.
It was obvious that Whitebeard's and Shiki's talent far surpassed that of Silver Axe, Wang Zhi, and even Charlotte Linlin.
"I'll teach you one more time. Watch closely."
Perhaps he had already expected this result. Rocks didn't blame them, but instead turned his gaze to Rono.
His main target this time was Rono.
If he could learn Conqueror's Haki Infusion before the great battle, it would be a huge benefit to the Rocks Pirates.
In fact, Rocks had wanted to teach Rono Conqueror's Haki Infusion for a long time, but he had been away from Hachinosu for the past three months.
However, with Rono's talent, it should still be possible to teach him now.
"Conqueror's Haki Infusion and Armament Haki Flow have a similar effect."
"Both are capable of causing destruction from within the enemy!"
"But where Conqueror's Haki Infusion is stronger than Flow is:"
"First, it can strike from a distance, without needing to touch the enemy!"
"Second, is the power amplification, which increases exponentially!"
With that, Rocks released his Conqueror's Haki.
A wave of dark red energy, emitting a terrifying power, swirled around his right hand.
Rocks threw a punch, aiming at a massive boulder tens of meters high, a hundred meters away.
Boom!
From a hundred meters away, the boulder exploded, shattering into pieces!
Not only that, but a terrifying shockwave spread out from the boulder, leaving a shocking, deep crater in the ground
