Chapter 15: Six Styles of the Navy, I just need to take a look!
"Do you like the sea, too?"
When Ji Guoyuan heard the sound, he turned his head and saw a tall man standing beside him.
The man was nearly three meters tall and wore a pair of round sunglasses.
The man wore a blue round hat with a snow-white seagull embroidered in the center. He also wore a long black cape with a snow-white seagull embroidered on the chest.
Although the man's clothes were all clearly insignia of the navy, his attire was neither like the suits and cloaks of justice worn by generals like Garp and Zephyr, nor was it like the sailor suits worn by ordinary middle and lower-level navy officers.
The whole person gives people a sharp and serious feeling.
The appearance of a person dressed like this on the warship was strange, just as strange as the person wearing a loose kimono, Yoshiichiro.
"Aokiji!" The moment he saw the person coming, Yunyi recognized the man and said in his heart.
Aokiji turned his head slightly, and seeing that Yunyi didn't reply, he ignored Yunyi, held the railing with both hands, continued to look at the sea, and said to himself:
"My code name is Aokiji."
"It's a captain from the Navy Headquarters."
Yunyi was a little confused when he heard this. How could Aokiji, a colonel, be on Garp's ship? Normally, a colonel in the Marine Headquarters would be able to lead a warship on his own and would not be on another ship.
"Hello, my name is Yuichiro Tsugikoku, um, a commoner."
Upon hearing this, Yunyi also said that he was not even a navy yet.
"Haha, I know."
"Vice Admiral Garp asked me to come here."
"Vice-Admiral Garp asked me to teach you how to fight while you're at sea."
Aokiji did not hide it and said with a smile.
When Yunyi heard this, he looked at Aokiji in surprise.
Yoriichi thought Garp had brought him aboard to teach him himself, but who knew he'd just leave him to Aokiji like that? Luckily Aokiji was a good boy; if he'd been more cunning, would he have needed a captain to teach him?
However, Yoriichi had no objection to Garp's arrangement. He might have objections if someone else came, but if that person was Aokiji, then it would not be something unacceptable.
Aokiji will undoubtedly be the top combat force in the navy in the future. Even though he is only a colonel now, it is definitely enough to guide Tsugikuni Yoriichi at this stage.
However, Yoriichi was still curious why Aokiji, a colonel, did not lead the team to attack on his own, but was instead drafted by Garp.
"Colonel Aokiji, how did you end up on Vice Admiral Garp's ship?"
"I have some understanding of the rank system within the navy. If you're a colonel, you should be able to lead your own team, right?"
Facing Yunyi's doubts, Aokiji did not hide it, and replied with a smile on his face:
"I was informed that I would be promoted to brigadier general this year. My family arranged for me to study, and my teacher is Lieutenant General Garp."
Home is how Aokiji refers to the Marine Headquarters. He previously served in a special unit of the Navy for a period of time, where the headquarters was referred to as "home." This is why Aokiji developed this habit.
In that unit, all the navy officers would conceal their names and address each other only by code names. His code name was Aokiji, which means blue pheasant. It was funny to say that the code names of the members of that unit were all dog, monkey, and the like, which were not impressive at all.
Aokiji couldn't stop smiling when he talked about his promotion. As a young man, he still took his position very seriously. He was also very happy to be able to learn under Vice Admiral Garp.
In the entire navy, there are only a few colonels who are qualified to study under Vice Admiral Garp.
Yunyi was touched by Versailles
Aokiji is only in his early twenties now, still a young boy, but his position is already colonel of the headquarters, and he will be promoted to brigadier general this year.
You know, when Smoker was 34 years old, he was just a colonel guarding Rogue Town. Although it took Smoker two years to climb from colonel to vice admiral, that was because he took advantage of some of the achievements of the Straw Hat Pirates.
Otherwise, if Smoker wants to reach the position of lieutenant general in the headquarters, he must be at least 40 years old.
But now Aokiji is only in his early twenties and is about to become a brigadier general. This promotion speed is the fastest in the history of the navy.
After a moment of silence, the beautiful sea view in front of him suddenly lost its appeal to Yunyi.
"Colonel Aokiji, are you free now?"
"Since Vice Admiral Garp has asked you to guide me, I think we shouldn't waste time."
Yunyi put his left hand on the knife and asked excitedly.
He suddenly felt that time had become so precious. He would have plenty of time to enjoy the scenery in the future. The most urgent thing was to improve his strength first.
Yoriichi had a premonition that if Garp led his team back to the Marine Headquarters, he would probably not have the chance to fight anyone.
"Oh? Are you in such a hurry?"
"That's fine. Since you're so motivated, it doesn't matter if you start now."
"Vice Admiral Garp asked me to teach you the Six Styles of the Navy. To be honest, I don't really know them that well."
"But since Vice Admiral Garp has said so, I will do my best."
"Do you know the Navy's Six Styles?"
Aokiji asked seemingly casually, his eyes slightly tilted towards Tsugikuni Yoriichi.
"have no idea."
Yunyi answered simply and shook his head.
Aokiji nodded and continued, "I don't think you'll understand even if I explain the principle directly to you."
"Let's just use the combat method. Use the most intuitive way to experience the Navy's Six Styles."
Aokiji walked towards the center of the deck. Garp's dog-head warship was very large, and at this time the other navy were all at their respective posts, so the deck was very empty.
"Yeah, okay!"
Yuan Yi responded decisively and drew out the long sword from his waist while speaking.
He was actually quite curious about the Six Styles of the Navy. Although he had some impression of the principles of the Six Styles of the Navy, principles were just principles after all. Trying to replicate the Six Styles of the Navy through those so-called principles was no less than recreating the Six Styles of the Navy, which was too fantastical.
If you want to learn, you need a teacher to guide you.
Aokiji is very suitable to be this mentor.
"Then I will begin, Colonel Aokiji, pay attention."
Yunyi kindly reminded him, holding the knife in both hands and holding it upright in front of his chest, and said seriously.
However, Aokiji waved his hand, looking nonchalant, and said casually: "Well, it's okay, come on."
It wasn't that Aokiji underestimated Tsugakuni Yoriichi, it was simply that Yoriichi looked too young. Furthermore, Aokiji was a natural type, so he wouldn't get hurt in ordinary battles. Therefore, he didn't take Yoriichi's warning seriously.
Yunyi nodded without hesitation. He pushed off the ground with his feet and suddenly rushed towards Aokiji. The extremely fast speed surprised Aokiji. The next second, the tip of Yunyi's knife was already at Aokiji's chest.
Breathing of the Sun - Type 7 - Yang Hua Tu.
The tip of the knife was thrust forward, accurately stabbing Aokiji's chest.
Aokiji obviously did not expect that Yoriichi's speed would be so fast. It did not seem like the speed that a teenager could burst out at all.
As the tip of the knife approached, Aokiji subconsciously used the power of his devil fruit. His chest had turned into ice, and when the tip of the knife pierced into him, there was no feeling of it piercing flesh at all.
The next second, Aokiji retreated, and when Yuanyi looked up, Aokiji had disappeared from the spot.
"This is the Navy Six-style Shave."
Aokiji's voice suddenly came from behind Tsugakuni Yoriichi. Just when Aokiji was about to "introduce" his "skill", a long sword quickly chopped towards his waist and abdomen.
"He reacted?! He even fought back?!"
Aokiji looked at Tsugakuni Yoriichi's actions with surprise on his face. He had never expected that Tsugakuni Yoriichi would react so quickly, and while he was speaking, the long sword was about to cut his waist.
Although Yoriichi does not know the Six Styles of the Navy and is not as fast as Aokiji, Yoriichi has excellent combat awareness and can predict Aokiji's movements.
“Crack!”
A knife slashed at Aokiji's waist, and the sound it made was quite crisp. Aokiji's waist was now completely covered in ice, and Yoriichi's slash was unexpectedly blocked by this ice. The hardness of this ice was far greater than that of steel!
"A block of iron can't even completely block this kid's slash."
"My Marine Six Styles training really isn't that good."
Aokiji lowered his head slightly and looked at his waist, sighed in his heart, raised his head, and was about to explain his "Iron Block" move to Yunyi, but was surprised to find that Yunyi had already disappeared in front of him.
"Huh?!" Aokiji's pupils shrank slightly and he quickly turned his head to look behind him.
At this moment, Yunyi's voice came from behind him:
"Shaving? It's not difficult."
“Nice technique.”
