Xia Ya: Iron Block? Dogs don't even use it!

CP0's full name is CIPHER POL - AIGIS 0.

It is known to the world as the 'Celestial Dragons' strongest shield,' the 'World's Number One Intelligence Organization.'

Of course, these titles like 'strongest shield' and 'number one intelligence organization' are merely accolades bestowed by the world or CP0 itself.

Simply put, in ten words, the job of this intelligence organization can be summarized as: dogs exclusively loyal to the Celestial Dragons.

"Greetings, esteemed Saint Shaya, my name is Gismonda."

"I am a member of CP0, specially here to teach you 'Rokushiki'."

Shaya had casually mentioned to Stussy his intention to find a CP0 member to learn Rokushiki. The very next day, Stussy had found a candidate specifically to teach Shaya Rokushiki.

Although every CP0 member is incredibly busy on a daily basis, as long as a Celestial Dragon gives an order, no matter how busy their mission, they must first stop and complete the task assigned by the Celestial Dragon. This is the mission and rule of CP0...

"Demonstrate all the Rokushiki techniques you know."

Shaya sat in his rocking chair and commanded the CP0 member before him.

As for this CP0 member's name, Shaya had heard it earlier but was too lazy to remember it.

"First is Soru! It's a technique for high-speed movement by stomping the ground dozens or even hundreds of times in rapid succession, generating explosive recoil!"

"It is said that there are masters in the Navy who have cultivated Soru to its extreme, their speed is like instant transmission, capable of crossing hundreds or even thousands of meters in the blink of an eye..."

The CP0 member introduced the technique while demonstrating the ability of Soru.

The CP0 member's feet moved nimbly, stomping the ground dozens of times in a short instant, and then was propelled dozens of meters away by the powerful recoil...

After the CP0 member finished, looked at Shaya, who was sitting in the rocking chair.

"Continue."

Sensing the CP0 member's gaze, Shaya casually waved his hand, signaling the CP0 member to continue demonstrating the use of Soru.

"Continue introducing other Rokushiki?!"

The CP0 member looked at Shaya and asked.

"Continue demonstrating Soru among the Rokushiki!"

Shaya replied truthfully.

"Uh, alright..."

Thus, this CP0 member, with a look of misery on face, could only use Soru again and again in front of Shaya, instantly moving from one side to the other, and then instantly moving back from the other side, continuously leaping back and forth like this.

"It's quite cooling."

Shaya faced this CP0 agent, much like Big Boss Sakamoto, and narrowed his eyes slightly at the powerful gusts of wind generated by his secret technique of rapid, repeated jumps.

"Alright."

"That's enough practice for Soru. Let's move on to the next one."

It was only after half an hour, when the poor CP0 agent felt his ankles going numb, that Shaya finally stopped him and informed him that they could proceed to the next Rokushiki demonstration.

"Next is Iron Body! This is a defensive technique that only strong and robust individuals can use. By accelerating blood flow within the body, it grants the body iron-like hardness!"

"It is said that among the Marines, there are some masters who use Iron Body with great skill. After using Iron Body, their bodies become harder than iron! Even bullets and swords cannot penetrate them."

Upon hearing this, the poor CP0 agent immediately stopped his repeated jumping!

He then demonstrated the second move of Rokushiki for Shaya—Iron Body!

"Huh? Iron Body?!"

"Okay, next."

Shaya merely glanced repeatedly at the CP0 agent before him, whose body had become immobile after using the secret technique Iron Body, leaving him unable to do anything but take hits.

Shaya felt a slight twitch at the corner of his eye and then abruptly shook his head...

At the same time, Shaya announced that this CP0 agent could now demonstrate the third technique of Rokushiki.

As for Iron Body? That move could be skipped.

As everyone knows, nobody uses Iron Body!

Whether Iron Body is hard or not, only those who use it truly know.

If Shaya were an ordinary Marine, or a regular CP agent, Iron Body might have some merit. But unfortunately, Shaya was not. Shaya was a Celestial Dragon...

Do you know why, among the government's CPs, some masters who use Iron Body can already move at high speeds while using it, yet the government still doesn't teach their subordinates the upgraded version of Iron Body?

And do you know why, when CP0 agents learn Rokushiki, Iron Body is a mandatory skill?

To put it bluntly, Iron Body is for guards to act as human shields, specifically to block bullets for the Celestial Dragons. The lower-class individuals acting as human shields don't need to move when using Iron Body. If you move, how can you protect the Celestial Dragons behind you?

However, he, Shaya, was a Celestial Dragon. Why would he learn such a thing? To protect the old geezer Imu? Don't be ridiculous. It was already showing Imu face by not beating him severely with his own 'big dick'!

Moreover, a technique that enhances defense by tensing muscles and accelerating blood circulation—he didn't even need to look at it to figure out that Iron Body was the least valuable technique in Rokushiki. If his subordinates learned it, it would be enough for them to act as human shields and block bullets. As their master, he had absolutely no use for it...

"Uh..."

"The third Rokushiki technique is called Kami-e!"

"By releasing all the strength in your body and reacting to the airflow changes caused by the opponent's movements, your body becomes as light and thin as paper, allowing you to drift with the wind! You can control your body with ease, and dodge any attack from the enemy effortlessly..."

CP0 looked at Shaya, continuing to explain the abilities of Kami-e.

"This technique is quite interesting."

Shaya's talent and skill level were both at seven. Basically, after CP0 demonstrated a few times, he would be able to learn all these techniques.

At the same time, Shaya could also innovate upon them.

After CP0 demonstrated the Kami-e ability, Shaya's mind began to work rapidly, and a new physical technique was constantly simulated in his mind. The name of this brand-new physical technique was--Power Erasure!

"Next is Geppo! Using the leg strength obtained from a thousand refinements to generate powerful force, continuously stepping on the air to create strong buoyancy, and relying on the friction between the soles of the feet and the air, one can walk in the air as if walking up stairs..."

"Then there's Tempest Kick! Through extremely fast and powerful kicks, it creates a vacuum to generate a cutting attack against the opponent. It is said that the cutting attacks kicked out by a Tempest Kick master are enough to rival the slashes of a great swordsman's sword, possessing immense power and being terrifying..."

"The last move is Finger Pistol, one of the Rokushiki! It's a technique that uses the fingers to simulate a firearm firing bullets. We gather all the strength in our entire body into our fingers, and then with hardened fingers, unleash a fatal blow in the flash of lightning to attack the opponent."

"It is said that after mastering Finger Pistol, its power will be no weaker than firearms! Some have even cultivated Finger Pistol to the level of rivaling anti-materiel sniper rifles, killing enemies invisibly from a hundred or even a thousand meters away."

At this moment, the CP0 was still diligently explaining to Shaya.

"..."

Shaya listened while yawning.

Around Shaya, maids were constantly fanning him, and Stussy was vigorously rubbing his shoulders.

"Uh..."

The CP0 was somewhat silent about this. He felt that the reason Shaya had asked him here was not to train Rokushiki, but simply to amuse himself.

"In addition, once the physical techniques like Rokushiki are cultivated to an extremely profound level! Reaching the point where one can control every muscle in their body."

"One can then master the ability called Life Return. Reaching this level proves that the user has thoroughly trained every muscle in their body to the extreme! People at this level are one in a hundred, or even one in a thousand, masters..."

Although Shaya's expression showed a hint of perfunctoriness, CP0 had to explain diligently! It wasn't until the sky gradually darkened that Shaya waved his hand.

"Alright! You can go back now."

Shaya said perfunctorily to CP0.

"Understood! Then I will return today."

CP0 replied respectfully to Shaya.

"No! You misunderstood me. I mean you don't need to come again in the future!"

Shaya slowly shook his head at CP0.

"What? Could it be that I taught you poorly somewhere?!"

The CP0 agent's expression was tinged with a hint of panic.

"You've misunderstood again..."

"I've simply, and completely, learned all of the Rokushiki."

"Since I've already learned them, I naturally don't need your teachings anymore."

Young Master Shaya said lazily after hearing the words of the CP0 agent before him.

At this moment, Young Master Shaya put on an air of pure, authentic Celestial Dragon arrogance.

"This..."

The CP0 agent was stunned.

Learned Rokushiki in a single day? What a joke...

Even the strongest current user of Rokushiki, the one known as the Hero of the Marines, Garp, took several weeks, even a month, when he first encountered Rokushiki.

"Saint Shaya is truly a genius."

However, even so, the CP0 agent still looked at Young Master Shaya with a smile and said.

"Naturally."

Young Master Shaya truthfully maintained the arrogant demeanor of a qualified Celestial Dragon.

After Young Master Shaya finished speaking, he returned to his residence surrounded by a host of attendants.

Well, today his old father, Figarland Garling Saint, still hadn't returned.

He must have been busy with state affairs outside, living a life of debauchery every night.

Young Master Shaya didn't particularly care about this; he had gradually gotten used to it.

Ever since Young Master Shaya had recovered his memories from his past life, knowing that he was not a native of this world but a transmigrator from another, he had barely seen his old father a few times.

"Young Master Shaya, do you really not need to have Gismonda come over tomorrow?! Learning Rokushiki isn't something that can be accomplished in just one day..."

After Young Master Shaya returned home, Stussy looked at him and quietly asked.

"No need."

Young Master Shaya replied casually.

"Was his teaching not good enough?"

"Do you need me to find someone else?"

Stussy pondered for a moment, then continued to ask.

"It's not necessary..."

"Rokushiki is too simple, it's not suitable for me."

Shaya replied truthfully upon hearing this.

"Heh heh, I understand. Then I wish Young Master Shaya sweet dreams."

Stussy seemed to understand something upon hearing this. She chuckled and walked out on her own.

Stussy thought to herself: As expected, Rokushiki is too difficult for Young Master Shaya. However, Young Master Shaya knows when to retreat, which surpasses many overconfident Celestial Dragons who lack talent.

Night fell.

After everyone had fallen asleep, Shaya slipped out of his room and went to the empty garden of the Figarland family. He casually pointed a finger at a large tree and thought to himself, "Finger Pistol!"

"Swish!"

The next second, the canopy of the tree, whose trunk alone was over two meters thick, was instantly pierced with a finger-thick hole.

Then, with a gentle breeze, the finger-thick hole disappeared...

This was the fundamental reason why Shaya had merely pierced the canopy of the large tree, which was composed of leaves. He couldn't pierce tree trunks or rocks with Finger Pistol. But doing so would avoid alerting others and drawing attention.

"As expected, techniques at the level of Rokushiki are still too simple for me right now..."

"Hmm, Pirate King Roger's Kamui is more suitable for me."

"Oh right, I can also learn Garp's Galaxy Impact."

Shaya looked at the large tree in the garden, whose canopy he had easily pierced with Finger Pistol, and gently shook his head.

A Level 7 talent is truly terrifying! He could learn basic Rokushiki just by watching it a few times.

Next, Shaya set his sights on Pirate King Roger's Kamui and the powerful and unique fist techniques of Iron Fist Garp. He figured that the techniques of the Pirate King and the Hero of the Marines should provide him with some challenge.
