Overload Form: Year-End Review!

Overload Form: Ten Million Volts!

This move was inspired by his daily self-harming training method, and can be considered an extension of it. The self-harming training method has now been officially named the "Lightning Stimulation Method." It involves the user consciously controlling their body's elementalization, using electric currents to create pain and stimulate their muscles and bones, thereby achieving a training effect.

The so-called Overload Form builds upon this by incorporating even larger currents, transforming it from a purely training technique into an explosive move that aids in offense!

The meaning of "Overload" is quite easy to understand: exceeding the limit, surpassing the designated operational standards...

This is precisely the principle behind the Overload Form for a Lightning Person. His body has a standard limit, which is the maximum voltage he can use. Using currents within his limit is the Lightning Stimulation Method, while anything beyond that limit is considered Overload...

By filling his body with electric currents, he locks the lightning that exceeds his body's capacity within him, causing it to circulate and thereby strengthening its power for attack and release.

The state that persists during this process is the Overload state...

The Overload: Lightning Fist from a month ago was an example of Overload enhancement, allowing him to unleash an explosive punch far exceeding his physical limits. That move's power was judged by Zephyr to be a full 500 Power Level, ten times his physical Power Level at the time!

After over a month of dedicated guidance from Zephyr, his physical condition has doubled in strength. Ron can now not only control the previously uncontrollable attack direction of Overload: Lightning Fist, which could only go straight, but also perform localized Overload.

And on top of that, he has developed a full-body Overload state!

This is something only Ron, the inventor of the Lightning Stimulation Method, can achieve!

Even ordinary people with the Rumble-Rumble Fruit would not be able to withstand such pain or possess such talent!

Under the full-body Overload Form, Ron's physical condition and lightning power will be greatly enhanced! Even though he can only perfectly control Ten Million Volts right now, every punch and kick he throws will be no weaker than 500 Power Level, even without using his Devil Fruit ability!

After all, "Overload Form: Ten Million Volts" represents an overload of Ten Million Volts of current on top of his existing Thirty Million Volts, resulting in an overall increase!

However... the price is severe!

Just like overloading equipment, depending on the Overload limit and duration, it will cause damage to the body. In severe cases, it can burn out the equipment, causing the body to shut down, rendering it unable to mobilize any lightning... For example, his current extreme Overload is Thirty Million Volts.

If not for his incredible self-healing ability and the forest in his heart, Ron would only use this move to fight for his life, not as a regular ability.

"The power of Overload Form is immense, but it cannot be elementalized. It's like killing a thousand enemies while sacrificing eight hundred of your own. Its practical significance is closely tied to physical strength..."

Picking up his water bottle, Ron drank and pondered silently.

"Moreover, Overload: Lightning Fist was just me imitating Kizaru's Light Speed Kick and failing. I discarded the high-speed lightning that I couldn't control at the time, forcibly overloaded the current, and used my physical body to unleash explosive punches with lightning's destructive power. It was a shortcut. The focus in the future should still be on developing the Devil Fruit ability. I'll set a small goal: develop a regular Lightning Fist that utilizes lightning's speed and destructive power, with less power but more practicality... However, the conversion speed is insufficient, and I have no idea how to tackle this problem. Simply shooting out a lightning pillar with my fist is worse than discharging... Huh?"

BANG!

Just as he was thinking, the training room door was suddenly kicked open. Shuzuo stood outside, roaring angrily, "Ron! Do you know what day it is today?!"

Startled, Ron flinched and turned around with a silly grin, "H-ha, ha! Of course, I know... what day it is, senior brother?"

"Stop trying to butter me up! Now, immediately, get back here for assembly!"

"Yes!!"

Marine Headquarters holds a very important event once a year. Most Marine officers without missions will come to observe, and on that day, the Headquarters fortress will be open to civilians on the island, allowing them to understand the strength and spirit of the new generation of Marines. The scene is quite lively!

This event is the annual year-end evaluation for the Marine Headquarters New Recruit Camp!

By the time Ron ran back and took his position in the formation, the first batch of soldiers to be evaluated were already preparing to take the stage...

"Wow, this is truly spectacular!"

This is a massive plaza behind the Marine Headquarters bay port, capable of holding one hundred thousand people. As far as the eye can see, it's a sea of people, stretching as far as the eye can see. The empty plaza has been transformed into a high platform by the soldiers' efforts. At the very top sits the Fleet Admiral of Marine Headquarters, Sengoku the Buddha. Slightly below him sit two Marine Headquarters Admirals, Akainu and Kizaru. Aokiji is absent from this observation due to a mission. Further down are the seats for the Headquarters Vice Admirals.

With the top brass of Headquarters at the head, wooden seats extend outwards, forming a circular wall resembling a Roman Colosseum, over thirty meters high. Navy families and officers of all ranks living in Marineford town are gathered, watching the performances and cheering for the new recruits they know.

Suddenly, Kizaru's eyebrows twitched. He looked at the slightly chaotic new recruit formation at the entrance and chuckled lewdly, "Ah... I thought that kid was dragged to Hell Island for training by Teacher Zephyr. I didn't expect him to still be at Headquarters!"

Due to the incident that night resulting in a probationary period, Ron has been confined to the New Recruit Camp for the past month, training diligently with no contact with the outside world. Kizaru, of course, wouldn't be so idle as to inquire about him, and he hadn't seen him for a month.

"Is that him? The Rumble-Rumble Fruit user?"

Akainu sat beside Kizaru. He hadn't intended to come to observe, but thinking that Ron would be present, he put aside his work temporarily to witness it.

"I hope he lives up to the name of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit!"

Akainu never believed his Magma-Magma Fruit was weak, and he had proven its power with his actions. But after Ron's appearance, rumors like "strongest Logia" and "invincible fruit" spread throughout Headquarters. Even if he didn't pay attention, he always heard them.

A dignified Admiral wouldn't stoop to arguing with a rookie. Instead, he wanted to see if Ron was worthy of the Navy's focused training.

"Then don't be surprised, Akainu..."

Kizaru said slowly, looking down at Garp, who was enveloped in dark energy, and a hint of mockery touched his lips: "It's not just the Rumble-Rumble Fruit that's terrifying, but the new recruit named Ron."

Seeing Ron enter, Garp, who had been released today after a month of confinement, fiercely bit into a donut and glared at him as if he wanted to kill him.

"This little brat has gotten so much stronger!"

"Ro... Ron!!"

"Why is he here?!"

"Shh, don't be ridiculous! He's a new recruit too!"

Seeing Ron standing in the formation, the others cast looks of surprise.

Due to his rapid growth, those in the know were astonished. To avoid discouraging the other new recruits' enthusiasm for training, Ron hadn't participated in physical training with them on the main field for over half a month. For the remaining time, Zephyr gave him freedom to train on his own, only offering help and guidance when necessary.

In the New Recruit Camp, this is a treatment enjoyed by only a select few geniuses!

Unique in this batch!

Beyond question!

Furthermore, Ron kept to himself, often spending three to five days straight in the training room. This led many new recruits to not even know where Ron was during the latter half of the month, with some even speculating he was out on a mission.

Seeing Ron return to the new recruit formation naturally caused great surprise.

After Ron rejoined the ranks, Shuzuo jogged over to Zephyr, saluted, and said, "Instructor General Zephyr, the New Recruit Camp is fully assembled! Please give your orders!"

"One day, I'm going to tear him apart!"

The year-end new recruit evaluation almost became a joke because of Ron. Zephyr's face was as dark as oil, but considering it wasn't the time to dwell on this, he glanced at the recruits stretching their limbs and waved his hand, "Begin!"

"Yes!"

The above content is purely fictional. If any similarities exist...

It's none of my business!

Alright, to preempt any arguments, the Overload Form is a figment of this author's imagination. After all, this is the One Piece World, so don't worry about scientific accuracy; existence is reason enough.
