One Piece: The Celestial Dragons' Self-Cultivation

Page 20

Robin is a super pirate with a bounty of nearly two billion, and she almost used her flower clone to take Shepard Somaz down with her when they were caught off guard.

This shows that she does have some fighting talent.

In the original story, Robin only truly began to receive training after she met the Revolutionary Army.

That's right, I trained with Kella.

Fate, amazing.

Black decides to train Robin from a young age.

Perhaps in the future she will not only be a secretary, but also become one of Blake's "Knights of God".

Chapter 28 The Tranquil Mary Geoise

The post-breakfast sunlight shone on the training grounds of Black Manor, making the sand on the ground slightly hot.

Blake leaned against the railing at the edge of the training field, twirling a whip in his hand, his gaze sweeping over the line of people.

"Today's training content is very simple."

“Mandy, continue to practice your swordsmanship until you completely correct your rigid and inflexible style.”

"Kerr continues to practice strength control until you are completely used to it and control becomes the norm."

"Robin will focus on the systematic development of the Flower-Flower Fruit."

At this point, Black paused and looked at Perona.

At only three years old, Perona, who had neither eaten the Ghost-Ghost Fruit nor undergone any ability card enhancements, was simply there to join in the fun.

But seeing the look in her eyes that longed to fit in, Blake couldn't bear to let him join her in watching the fun.

“Okay, Perona will be in charge of the anti-interference training.”

What is interference resistance training?

Upon hearing Perona's question, Blake's face broke into a wicked grin as he looked at Robin and the others, saying:

"It's all about causing trouble for all of you. You have to complete your training under Perona's interference."

Perona exclaimed in surprise and jumped up happily.

Robin slapped his forehead:

"I knew it……"

As soon as training began, Kella stomped the wooden floorboards under her feet until they were shattered.

Kerla was about to kneel down and apologize, but he stopped himself and scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly.

Seeing this, Blake was quite satisfied and said with a smile:

"You need to train hard, Koala. Even the Celestial Dragons' training grounds can't withstand you tearing them down every day."

"You are strong enough to lift a whale, but you can't even control your own weight now."

"Yes...I'm sorry."

Kella instinctively forced a fake smile, but Blake pressed her head down.

"No need to apologize, you didn't do anything wrong, just keep training."

Kerla nodded vigorously and began today's strength training.

While Kella was focused on dealing with the water sac in front of her, Perona had already quietly crept up behind her.

Perona was carrying a wooden bucket she'd found somewhere, which was about half full of flour.

She chuckled and threw flour at Kerla's head.

Just as the flour was about to fall on her head, Kella seemed to sense something and subconsciously turned her head and waved her hand.

This seemingly unintentional action stirred up a gust of wind, blowing the flour back intact.

Half of it landed on Perona's own head, while the other half landed on Robin, who was not far away.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to."

Before she could even figure out what had happened, Kera had already started apologizing instinctively.

Robin waved his hand:

"It's not your fault, it's just that another brat needs to be taught a lesson."

As she spoke, she looked at Perona, whose pink hair had been dyed white, and sneered.

"Flower Burial - Upside Down!"

Robin's hand reached out from the ground and instantly grabbed Perona's ankle, lifting her up.

Perona screamed and danced wildly.

Robin pinned Perona to the training mat and bound her wrists with seven or eight hands:

"Think about the consequences before you play a prank next time."

Perona writhed and cried out in pain:

"Whoa! You nerd, let me go! Stella, help me! Waaaaah..."

Robin tightened his arms with a cold smile:

Pretending to cry won't help.

Meanwhile, Blake is personally helping Mandy train in swordsmanship.

With a sharp crack, Blake's whip lashed the sword, sending Mandy's rapier flying.

"Relax your wrists; the power should come from your shoulders, not your fingers."

“Even the specimens in the museum are more agile than your swordsmanship.”

Mandy lowered her head in shame.

Robin, who was standing nearby, couldn't stand it any longer and spoke up in support:

"Oh my god? You've actually been to a museum?"

"Shouldn't the Celestial Dragons have all their brainpower devoted to their slaves?"

Blake turned and glared at Robin.

She was sitting on a flower vine swing created with her abilities, her legs swinging back and forth.

Are you referring to slaves like yourself?

"This skill is completely useless, let's redevelop it!"

With that, Blake raised his whip and lashed it straight at Robin's flower vines.

The swing instantly turned into petals that scattered, and Robin fell into the sandpit.

Somewhat annoyed, she gritted her teeth, cursed Blake for taking revenge in her heart, and went to the side to continue developing her new abilities.

Having recovered, Perona decided to temporarily refrain from provoking Koala, that super-strong woman, and Robin, that bookworm, and turned her attention to Mandy.

Seeing that Mandy looked thoughtful, she quietly approached the rapier that had fallen to the ground.

He took a small bottle from his pocket, smeared the jam inside onto the hilt of his sword, and then left as if nothing had happened.

When Mandy came to her senses and instinctively picked up the longsword...

Mandy looked down at her hands, then at the hilt of her sword covered in jam, and then stared blankly at Perona.

Noticing Mandy's gaze, Perona chuckled and ran away.

But how could Perona's short legs outrun Mandy? In just a few steps, she was lifted up by the back of her collar and placed in front of her, looking straight at her.

Perona's eyes darted around, and she abruptly changed the subject:

"Haha, Sister Mandy's face is as cold as stone..."

Mandy's eye twitched.

This was the first time she had shown any emotion today.

The two stared at each other for a long time. Seeing Perona's increasingly uneasy expression, Mandy sighed and put her on the ground.

Perona felt a little embarrassed and asked cautiously:

"Sister Mandy, you're not angry, are you?"

Mandy shook her head and patted Perona's head with her hands that weren't stained with jam.

Perona then revealed a happy smile:

"I knew it! Lady Perona's pranks never make people angry."

With that, she hurriedly ran off to find new prank props.

Watching Perona's departing figure, Mandy couldn't help but smile.

"These kinds of days seem pretty good..."

Time flew by and it was noon.

Perona finally found the opportunity to sprinkle soapy water on the ground near Robin, successfully causing Robin's flower clone to slip and shatter into petals.

While Robin was chasing Perona all over the training grounds, Black called everyone together.

"Alright, that's enough for today. We'll continue tomorrow."

"If anyone doesn't improve tomorrow..."

At this point, Blake paused, his gaze sweeping over the crowd.

Robin, still seething with anger, looked at Perona and continued:

"So, you just stuff Perona into the cannon barrel and fire her?"

Blake curled his lips into a Piglet-esque smile:

"No, I'll have you teach her to read ancient characters."

Upon hearing this, Robin's eyes widened in disbelief.

Just as Robin's expression began to stiffen, Stella walked into the training field carrying a tray.

"Everyone, it's time to rest."

Chapter 29: An Idle Chess Move

Two weeks later, Mary Geoise, Red Harbor.

The garrison at Red Harbor stared in disbelief at the sea before them.

In the distance, a dilapidated pirate ship was slowly sailing towards Red Harbor.

where is this place?

Mary Geoise, the heart of the world government.

Leaving aside the hidden forces unknown to ordinary people, just considering the surface combat strength, there is at least one naval admiral stationed there year-round.

In addition, the World Government's army has always been stationed in Mary Geoise.

Which pirate crew is so audacious?

They dared to sail towards Red Harbor in a ship that was about to fall apart.

"All personnel on high alert! Prepare to fire!"

Just then, a shirtless figure on the pirate ship leaped up and landed directly in front of the guards.

"I am Aramu, a retainer of Lord Black. Disperse."

The visitor was none other than Huang Mu.

It took half a month to get back to Mary Geoise from Lanna.

In order to speed up their progress, Huang Mu did not resupply when passing through the islands.

What if we run out of food and water?
