Chapter 56: Learn It Just By Looking At It?
Half an hour later, Zephyr had finished explaining the Marine Six Styles power generation techniques and introductory training. After answering the students' questions, he wiped the sweat from his face and said with a smile, "Then it's your free practice time. If you have any questions, you can ask me at any time."
The Marines all nodded and dispersed across the school grounds. They carefully considered the key points explained by Zephyr and began to practice Marine Six Styles. Although Marine Six Styles helps to break through the limits of the human body, everyone's training focus is different. So at the beginning, they choose one or two of the six styles to focus on.
For example, Dalmecia, with his Zoan Demon fruit power, focuses more on "shaving" and "Finger Pistol," dashing and instant destruction. This can better utilize the speed and claw penetration ability of his dog fruit to the ultimate. Officers such as Dauberman and Huoshaoshan, who are good at using knives, prefer Iron Body, Tempest Kick, and Shao. Iron Body can improve the body's defense and resistance to blows, increasing the intensity of close combat. As for the Tempest Kick, its essence and force-generating technique are very similar to the flying slash of the swordsman, making it easier for them to master.
"Shaving" is the most practical move in the Marine Six Styles and is the focus of every Marine's training. As for Darren, who has already exceeded the limits of the human body and achieved a "superhuman" physique, he practices all six styles together. Darren walked to an open space and faced a human-shaped stone target. He gradually became immersed in his mind and closed his eyes. Zephyr's explanation began to replay in his mind, and his ability to perceive his body was fully activated as he controlled the force of his muscles.
The mechanism of the Finger Pistol is to gather all the strength of the whole body into one point. The fundamental strength of the human body comes from the feet. Under the contraction of the muscles, Darren's military boots rotate slightly, nailing into the ground like nails. He carefully felt and understood the movement of every muscle and bone in his body. The force is transmitted from the feet to the pelvis. The pelvis and spine must remain stable, twisting the whole body into one force, and then the shoulders, arms...
The breeze blew by, and the harsh sunlight steamed the earth. Darren's heart was finally at peace. At a certain moment, he suddenly opened his eyes, and a sharp light flashed deep within them. With a cold shout, all the strength that had accumulated in his body poured into his index finger, and he stabbed it out with one shot!
Finger Pistol!
Boom! A hole suddenly exploded in the stone target, causing lime to fly. Darren let out a long breath, and a smile appeared on his face. Mastering Marine Six Styles is easier than I thought. However, Darren realized that his physical strength, explosive power, endurance, bone hardness, etc., had already exceeded the standards of Marine Six Styles, so it was reasonable to master them easily.
He raised his head, and what he saw were dumbfounded faces. "What happened to you guys?" Darren asked, looking at everyone frozen there in confusion.
"Darren... you... learned the Finger Pistol all at once!?" Dauberman and others looked at Darren and the holes in the stone target in disbelief.
"It's very simple. You only need to concentrate all your strength on one point, and you can do it easily," Darren smiled. Everyone looked unconvinced. Only a monster like you would think this is easy. "Hahahaha, let me try it then!" At this time, Kuzan's eyes were intense, and he said, "I won't lose to you, Darren!" He walked up to a stone target, took a deep breath, and concentrated. Everyone's eyes widened. "Finger Pistol!" All they heard was a low shout from Kuzan, and his index finger stabbed out like a gun.
The lime exploded, and a hole as thick as a finger suddenly appeared in the center of the stone target. "Hahahaha, it worked! Darren, did you see it?" Kuzan looked at Darren with a smile on his face. Really, really successful!? Everyone screamed in their hearts, their faces full of shock. The difficulty of practicing Marine Six Styles is not low. Even some senior officers at the headquarters level can only master one or two of them, helping themselves break through human limits in certain aspects. Although they had heard similar rumors before, that some individuals with terrifying talent could master Marine Six Styles after just one or two looks, seeing it before their eyes was unbelievable and unimaginable!
Darren's ability to master the six moves easily, though shocking, was within their expectations. After all, Darren's strength and physical prowess are evident. But what happened to Kuzan!?
'What a terrifying talent...' Seeing Kuzan's performance, Darren's heart was stirred, and his eyes narrowed. Zephyr, sitting on a beach chair smoking in the distance, couldn't help but have his eyes light up. Kuzan is deserving of the title of monster... His speed in mastering the six forms is as rapid as Sakazuki and Borsolino! "I'll try it too!" a voice suddenly sounded. Everyone followed the sound and saw Kake walking out of the crowd with his hands on his hips. Seeing everyone's attention on Darren and Kuzan, Kake, having felt sidelined, was unhappy.
Everyone watched as Kake approached the stone target and exchanged glances. Could it be that Kake also learned the Finger Pistol in such a short time!? Feeling everyone's eyes, especially Gion's gaze, Kake felt a bit dizzy. Isn't it just Finger Pistol? It shouldn't be that difficult, right? Kake put on a pose he thought was handsome, took a deep breath, and thrust his index finger towards the stone target, imitating Darren and Kuzan.

The sound of broken bones suddenly echoed. "Hiss!" Everyone present gasped in unison. They stared at the unmoved stone target and Kake's index finger, turned at a 90-degree angle, feeling their eyes twitch and recoiling their hands in unison. Kake's face paled momentarily, then quickly recalibrated. He took a deep breath, quietly hid his hands behind his back, casually saying, "Well, I haven't moved for too long, so I loosened my finger bones."
Everyone: "..." Zephyr covered his face with his hands in pain.
