The battlefield was no longer chaos.
It was a hunt.
And the target—
"…Still me. Great."
MC stood surrounded by three Vice Admirals.
Breathing heavy.
Body barely holding together.
But smiling anyway.
😐 Situation Update
MC (internally):"Okay… they're stronger than before."
"They've adjusted."
"No wasted movement."
"No panic."
"…Yeah, they're serious now."
[Conclusion: Opponents adapting]
"…Why is everyone copying me?!"
⚔️ Round 2 Begins
They attacked again—
Perfect coordination.
Left. Right. Above.
No escape.
MC's eyes sharpened.
"…Fine."
"This time…"
"I fight properly."
💥 Clash
Punch—
Blocked.
Kick—
Dodged.
Third attack—
MC caught it.
Barely.
His hand trembled.
"…Got you."
⚡ Turning Point
Instead of pushing away—
He pulled.
"Predator."
The Vice Admiral's arm got partially absorbed—
Not fully—
But enough.
🧠 The System Responds
[High-quality target partially consumed][Analyzing…][Extracting data…]
MC froze.
"…Wait."
"…WAIT."
💀 Panic Mode
The Vice Admiral screamed—
Trying to pull back—
But his arm wasn't fully there anymore.
The battlefield went silent for a second.
MC panicked.
"I DIDN'T MEAN TO DO THAT!"
[Skill extraction in progress…]
"…STOP EXTRACTING!"
⚡ First Major Gain
[Skill acquired: Basic Armament Haki Proficiency][Combat experience absorbed]
MC blinked.
"…I just… downloaded him?"
😶 The Moment
The Vice Admiral collapsed.
Not dead instantly—
But done.
Out of the fight.
The other two froze.
For the first time—
They hesitated.
😈 Shift in Fear
MC looked at his hand.
Then at them.
"…Okay."
"…That's new."
He grinned.
"…I'm kinda scared of myself now."
🧨 Fight Resumes
The remaining two attacked—
But not the same way.
More cautious.
More distance.
MC noticed immediately.
"…Oh."
"…You're scared."
😂 Confidence Returns
He pointed at them.
"Relax."
"I only eat people who hit me."
Pause.
"…Actually that's everyone here."
⚡ Predator Unleashed
This time—
MC didn't hold back.
He moved forward.
Fast.
Unpredictable.
Half slime—
Half human—
Switching constantly.
💥 Combo Attack
First Marine attacked—
MC dodged—
Grabbed—
"Predator!"
Not full consumption—
But enough to disrupt.
Then—
Haki punch.
Clean.
Direct.
The Marine got sent flying.
🔥 Growth Mid-Fight
[Armament Haki proficiency increasing…]
MC laughed.
"…This is actually fun now!"
👁️ Battlefield Reaction
From afar—
Sengoku frowned.
"He's not just surviving anymore."
Monkey D. Garp nodded.
"…He's learning how to fight."
🐉 Rocks Crew Watching
Kaido grinned.
"He's becoming a monster!"
Big Mom laughed.
"MAMAMAMA! HE'S FUN!"
Whitebeard smirked.
"…He'll be trouble."
💀 Final Exchange
The last Vice Admiral charged—
Desperate.
Full power.
Haki blazing.
MC stood still.
Calm.
Focused.
"…Let's try this."
He coated his arm—
Better this time.
More stable.
⚡ Clash
BOOM!
Punch met punch.
Haki vs Haki.
The air cracked.
The deck split.
And then—
The Marine got blown back.
Hard.
🔥 Aftermath
Silence.
The three Vice Admirals—
All down.
Not all dead—
But defeated.
And MC—
Still standing.
Barely.
😄 Final Scene
MC looked around.
At the battlefield.
At the chaos.
At the fear now directed at him.
He scratched his head.
"…So…"
"…Does this mean I passed the tutorial?"
👁️ Final Watcher
In the distance—
Rocks D. Xebec smiled.
"…No."
"…Now it begins."
