Grand Line’s Lord Of Shadows

The next day, early in the morning, on the messy battlefield.

Accompanied by a thin and nagging voice.

"Luke-sama...." 

A young and beautiful figure was already sweating profusely.

However, under Luke's strict teaching, she still practices hard there.

From time to time, she stares at Luke eagerly.

Tears well up in her eyes, making her look pitiful.

"Desire, the most taboo in training, is to give up halfway..."

Luke frowned, then he righteously scolded her: "You can't go back like this!"

Yesterday, this girl took the initiative to pull him over in a nervous mood and asked him about some problems.

Considering that Desire's spirit of eagerness to become stronger is precious, Luke took the time to patiently give her one-on-one guidance.

However, her foundation is too poor.

She couldn't hold on after training for a while.

But relatively speaking, her willpower is too poor.

Although it was just a simple confrontation training, Luke had already deliberately restrained his strength and patiently trained her.

But Desire's level was limited.

Not long after, Luke, who was always strict, conscientious, and never perfunctory in training, beat her up severely until she was about to cry.

As if she was falling apart; her hands and feet were sore, and she was weak all over.

She had to surrender.

But under Luke's persistent request.

She had to work hard every time she tried to give up.

With a bitter face, she had to be consistent and insist on completing the training.

After all, Luke was not always free, and such opportunities were limited.

Even on the Thriller Bark.

Luke repeatedly stated that the capable ones were promoted, and the mediocre ones were demoted.

But the atmosphere of seniority and first come, first served was still very serious.

After all, she was just a newcomer and could not compare with Robin and Perona, two seniors who had been with Luke for a long time and trained very hard without slacking off.

"Yes, I understand... I will work hard and not let you down!"

Faced with Luke's earnest teachings.

Desire decided to continue working hard; after all, she had finally gotten this opportunity.

It happened that she met Robin and Perona, who have a poor relative who came uninvited and liked to ask for money every month, so she seized this opportunity.

She had the opportunity to talk to Luke, who had already fascinated her, about the training problems.

She has to say that he is worthy of being the captain.

With rich experience and strong strength, his attainments in physical skills are far beyond the reach of ordinary people.

She benefited a lot from it and gained a lot.

"Well... let's stop here today!"

Looking at Desire, who couldn't stand the high-intensity training and fell down tiredly.

Luke shook his head helplessly and said:

"Have a good rest, and keep working hard in the future. You can't give up halfway..."

"In order to ensure that you can perfectly absorb and thoroughly digest the gains of this training, it is best to write an experience report. I want to read it tomorrow!"

"A day's plan begins in the morning; don't slack off!"

"I know, I will work hard, Luke-sama…"

Desire's eyes were full of tears, and she was moved.

Luke, who was handsome and powerful, gentle and principled, was really good to her.

She must work hard and strive to double the amount of training as soon as possible to repay the other party's kindness and live up to his expectations.

Luke, who was a little emotional, finished breakfast, slowly left the castle and came to the training ground.

"Morning, Luke-sama..." Wyper, Lafitte, Brook, Van Augur, and others had already been training hard there.

Seeing Luke coming.

They all greeted each other there.

But they did not stop training, nor did they mean to come closer.

From a distance, Nami, Nojigo, Bartolomeo, and others could be seen running around the Thriller Bark under the supervision of several pterosaurs…

Looking towards him were Robin's half-smiley eyes and Perona's resentful eyes… However, have Reiju's complicated eyes… What's going on?

Luke, who was already very thick-skinned.

Naturally, he would not feel embarrassed, and he selectively ignored these eyes.

"Fire Fist!"

At this time, not far away on the coast, Gin was swinging his fists wildly.

His right fist turned into a blazing flame, and he blasted it out fiercely.

The sea was steaming and misty.

The entire sea surface reflected an extremely red color.

Even though it was a bit far away, he couldn't help but feel the waves of heat coming towards him.

"It's not bad to be able to achieve this level in one night!" Luke nodded.

Although the power is still very weak, it is far from being able to easily penetrate warships with one strike.

But considering his own strength and the fact that he has just obtained the Devil Fruit.

It is not too bad.

He recognized Gin's performance.

He was so excited that he couldn't sleep after just getting the ability.

At the same time, in order to prevent him from burning his castle, Luke arranged for him to set up a tent and let him deal with it in the wild for a few days.

A distance from the Gin and the training ground.

"Thousand Face Wind!"

On the other side, transform into Beast Form, turning into ferocious weasel, completely different from his usual gentle image, Kuro shouted there while waving the sickle-like claws wildly.

"Swish... swish..." 

There were faint ripples in the air, and invisible wind blades kept cutting out.

The sea surface exploded, and water splashed.

Then, a shocking hole appeared before slowly recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Noticing Luke's arrival.

Kuro and Gin both stopped their training.

Then they came over and saluted.

"No need to be polite!"

"It seems that you have adapted to your new abilities a little bit!"

Luke waved his hand and admonished:

"However, even if the development of your devil fruit abilities is important, the training of your physical skills cannot be slackened. Only a strong physique can support you to go further!"

"In the future, Ryuma will be responsible for arranging your training and guiding your practice. Don't slack off!"

He doesn't necessarily require every member to master all six superhuman fighting skills.

But, apart from learning more convenient and practical physical skills such as Shave and Moonwalk, it's up to them to learn other skills.

The main thing is that the practice of physical skills cannot be slackened. Abundant stamina and a strong physique can also allow them to fully exert the power of the Devil Fruit.

And apart from the Devil Fruit ability.

The basic combat power must not be too weak.

As for training in Haki, it is obviously too early for them.

They need to train for a few more months, at least, to consolidate their foundation.

Luke has plenty of patience, and He is not in a hurry.

"Understood!"
