Pirates: Rush to the Peak

"Phew, it's almost there. When I was fighting Ryan today, I could feel my Conqueror Haki getting ready to move. At this rate, I believe I'll be able to use it against the enemy soon.

After Kuro finished speaking, he started thinking about the advancement of Armament Haki and the externalization of Armament Haki. Regarding Ryuo, he had asked his grandfather when he was a child, but his grandfather didn't know how to use Ryuo either.

So he could only frantically practice the entanglement and release of Armament Haki, to the point that now he has Armament Haki wrapped all over his body, but is still stuck here and cannot move up.

"Ryusakura, Armament Haki."

Kuro muttered to himself about the two powers.

"If we follow the understanding of Armament Haki back home, it can be understood as something like hard Qigong, which makes one invulnerable to swords and guns. Then Ryu-oku can be understood as internal strength."

"Hahaha, the internal force is too much, but there is a similar one to his, I remember it's called, seepage force!"

The so-called penetration force is to penetrate the opponent's body and destroy its internal tissues (such as bones, blood, tendons, internal organs, etc.) by simply applying a light touch to the opponent's body surface.

If Armament Haki is a block of stone, then Ryuo is flowing water. One is used to carry and hit, while the other is to penetrate. Water drops can wear away a stone!

Kuro said as he picked up a stone and placed it on the ground. He hardened his armament color in his right hand and moved closer to the stone.

"Infiltration. First, activate the Armament Haki, then flow into the stone."

Kuro closed his eyes, relaxed his whole body and slowed down his breathing. He pressed his fists against the stone and felt the release of the Armament Haki.

Kuro's right hand did not move, but the stone was slowly being pushed away.

"Hey, it's still on the outside, I can't wear it."

"But the theory should be correct. Infiltrate the enemy with the armed color and carry out internal sabotage."

"But how do we penetrate it?"

Kuro looked thoughtful, sitting cross-legged on the ground, looking at the stone in front of him.

"Boy, what are you doing? I saw you sitting on the ground for a long time."

Old Man Hua Si came out of the house and asked curiously.

"Oh, by the way, old man, do you know anything about Ryusakura?"

When Kuro heard the voice of old man Hua Si behind him, he turned his head to look at him, and suddenly thought that the old man might be able to do it, so he asked with a look of surprise.

"Ryu-Yakura? What is that?"

Hearing Kuro's question, the old man thought for a moment and then asked.

"Ryu-o, this is an advanced technique of Armament Haki, which can destroy the enemy from the inside. It is perfect for attacking those with thick skin and flesh."

"So awesome!"

When Mr. Hua Si heard Ku Luo's introduction, he was shocked.

"Boy, can you teach me this Ryuu-sakura?"

"Old man, if I knew how to do Ryusakura, do you think I would still be here asking you if you know it?"

"Oh, that's true. Then you can study it slowly by yourself. I won't disturb you anymore. Hahaha."

Looking at Kuro's speechless face, old man Hua Si smiled awkwardly and walked into the house again.

"Take your time. I understand the theory. The next step is practical operation. In the next ten days, I will focus on Armament Haki Ryusaku and try to learn and master it."

After saying this to encourage himself, Kuro stood up and went back to the villa. Coincidentally at this moment, Kuro came back with seastone handcuffs.

"Captain, these are the seastone handcuffs you requested."

Kuro said as he handed the seastone handcuffs to Kuro.

Kuro took the seastone handcuffs and immediately felt a sense of weakness, but the effect on him was completely negligible.

"That shouldn't be the case. With this level of restraint, can we catch a person with special abilities?"

Touching the seastone, Kuro's face showed confusion and puzzlement.

"Captain, it's the seastone handcuffs. Any problem?"

Clo looked at the captain, staring blankly at the seastone handcuffs in his hands, thinking something had gone wrong.

"Oh no, no problem hahaha."

Kuro smiled and pulled out the Budu Soul. The blade flashed and directly broke the seastone handcuffs in half. He picked up one and handcuffed it on his hand.

"Captain! What are you doing! Take it off quickly or you will lose your ability."

Seeing the handcuffs on Kuro's hands, Kro quickly tried to persuade him.

"Ah, I want to use this to train myself and get used to the feeling of seastone to avoid being injured by sneak attacks in the future."

Kuro said, raising the handcuff on his left wrist.

"I don't know why, but I feel like this thing doesn't have a big effect on me. I do feel a little weak, but it's not very strong."

"I can even use my abilities."

Kuro said as he activated his right hand's ability, and dragon scales suddenly covered his entire arm.

"This, this is impossible, Captain."

When Cloe saw this, he was dumbfounded and murmured that it was impossible.

"How did you do it, kid? Even the most powerful warrior can't use his abilities if he's handcuffed by seastone!"

Old man Hua Si, who was beside Clow, also looked incredulous when he saw Clow display his abilities.

When a user with special abilities is locked by seastone, their whole body will become weak and powerless. Even if some strong people can resist, it shouldn't be the case for Kuro.

Not only does he not look that weak, but he can also use his abilities directly. This goes against the restraint of seastone on devil fruits.

"I don't know either. I just wanted to experience the effect of seastone on me at first, but when I got it in my hand, I found that it was not as serious as I imagined."

"At first I thought it was because I had a good physique and strong strength, so it had no effect, but now it seems that this is not the case."

"There is one more thing. My left hand is handcuffed, so I cannot use my abilities."

Kuro tried to turn his left hand into an ability again, but found that he couldn't do it and there was no reaction at all.

"Is it possible that the seastone content in these seastone handcuffs is low, so it only affects your left hand?"

"And it has no effect on other parts of your body?"

Old man Hua Si thought about it and then put forward his opinion. Clo was silently thinking about the possibility of the matter.

"You'll know if you try it. Come on Ryan, let's do a little experiment."

"Huh? What are you doing, Captain?"

"Don't be afraid, take a deep breath, it will be fine in a while. Hahahaha"

Kuro smiled evilly, picked up another handcuff, gently took Ryan's hand and handcuffed it directly.

"Uh-huh! Captain, my limbs are weak and I have no strength left."

Ryan's hands and feet became weak, and he spoke to Kuro anxiously.

"What about your abilities? Can you use them?"

"Hmm~Hmm~I can't use it, Captain. I feel like I have no ability at all."

Ryan tried for a long time, his face turned red, but he still couldn't use his ability.

"Then it seems that the problem is either with you, Captain, or with the fruit."

Clo pushed up his glasses and said calmly.
