My partner in One Piece is Esdeath

After three days at sea, the ship docked at an island.

In this headquarters, lieutenant generals are qualified to build their own ships. Of course, Zefa's ship was also customized, so there was a classroom on board.

In a small classroom.

Zefa stood on the podium.

"I object to your over-reliance on the fruit's abilities because the weaknesses of the Devil Fruit are too obvious and are easy for enemies to target."

"But the most dangerous and toughest enemy is always the fruit-powered person."

"There are some fruits with strange effects on the sea. They are very rare. Some navy have never encountered them in their lives, but I have a hunch that you will definitely encounter such enemies."

"Just like Ain's Regression Fruit, it can regress a person's age."

"Annan, you have been tricked now." Zefa looked at Annan.

"Teacher Nazefa, is there any other way to deal with such a person with abilities besides defeating him?" Esdeath asked.

"Of course." Zefa raised his left hand, and circles of domineering energy covered it.

"Domineering."

"As long as your domineering power reaches a certain level, the fruit's ability will have no effect on you."

"That is to say: powerful Haki can invalidate the fruit's ability."

"Ah?" Annan said, "Isn't it possible?"

"Annan, nothing is impossible." Zefa said.

"How about you try?" Esdeath

Annan tried to activate his domineering energy, but suddenly his body shook, and his whole body returned to its original state at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"It's really good." Annan looked at his recovered hands in shock, "It's really unbelievable!"

Annan's understanding of domineering was completely subverted.

"Okay Annan, you still have a lot to learn." Zefa said.

"Now go change your clothes and then get off the boat."

"It's hard for me to go out like this, otherwise..." Annan covered his private parts and looked at Esdeath with pleading eyes.

"Don't look at me like that." Esdeath glared at him, "Don't think I didn't see it. There are student uniforms in the classroom closet. Get them yourself."

It is normal to have replacement uniforms in the classroom, at least in Zefa's classroom. In the past, some students would always burn their clothes, freeze them to pieces, and burst...

Seeing Annan hurriedly changing clothes and leaving with Esdeath, Zefa showed a hint of surprise, "He actually released the fruit's ability. The level of domineering is not low."

Annan and Esdeath disembarked from the boat and arrived at the island. It was getting late.

The two spent several hours setting up a simple camp. A bonfire was lit in the center of the camp.

Zefa came over and saw the two people who were already making barbecue.

The ingredients are Neptune type. Esdeath has just fished them out of the sea. They are ice-cold and extremely fresh. As for barbecue, mastering the heat is also a kind of practice.

"The ability of the Flame Fruit is used for barbecue." Zefa smiled, "It's a novel idea."

"Make the best use of everything, Teacher Zefa, do you want a skewer?" Annan held up a meat skewer, each piece of meat was about the size of a football.

"I, an old man, don't need to eat so much." Zefa sat by the campfire and watched Annan continue to stir up the flames.

"Don't overcook it. The Neptune meat is very tender, and it won't taste good if it's overcooked." Esdeath said at the side.

"Hey, I know, I know, you said before that you would eat whatever I bake."

"Did you capture this Neptune type, Esdeath?" Zefa asked.

"Of course, although the Neptune species here are much larger than those in the South China Sea, they are stupid and easier to catch."

"How easy it is for you to put your hand into the sea and freeze one after another." Annan added.

"You are the only one who talks a lot." Esdeath raised his index finger, and a hailstone appeared on Annan's head, but it melted as it fell.

"The same moves are of no use to me." Annan chuckled, "Now I won't fall into the trap so easily."

"Really?" Esdeath narrowed her eyes slightly and raised the corners of her mouth slightly.

"Esdeath, what are you doing? You have taken away your abilities. Do you still want to eat barbecue?"

“I don’t want to, let’s eat sashimi instead!”

Zefa looked at Annan and Esdeath with a smile in his eyes.

"The two little guys are really energetic."

After dinner, Annan and the two sat down in a polite manner, and Zefa set up a small blackboard.

"Haki is divided into three types: 'armed color', 'witness color' and 'overlord color'."

"Most people can acquire the first two types of domineering power through practice, and they can continue to practice and enhance it. However, after reaching a certain limit, they can only go further under the extreme conditions of actual combat."

"The "Overlord Color" and the "Highest Level of Knowledge Color" are innate and cannot be obtained through practice, and the highest level of Knowledge Color Haki is rarer than the Overlord Color Haki."

………………

"That's it for the theoretical class, we'll start practicing tomorrow."

After Zefa finished speaking, he stood up and left.

Annan and Esdeath lay beside the campfire, looking at the stars in the sky.

"Esdeath."

"Um"

"Do you still remember how I taught you to master the color of knowledge?"

Esdeath put her hands behind her head, holding an unknown weed in her mouth.

"Of course I remember."

six years ago.

"Xiao Ai, can you see it?"

Annan covered Esdeath's eyes and helped her sit down slowly. Esdeath's eyes were dark and her little head shook from side to side.

"Annan, I can't see you."

"It's just that you can't see it."

Annan sat opposite the girl and said word by word: "Next, I want you to judge my movements and my position through my breath."

"Is this useful? You don't close your eyes when fighting."

"This is a way to calm down your mind. You will be agitated every time you fight. This way you will not be able to master the Haki of Haki."

"That's what people like you who defend and counterattack on the spot need to master. Armed and domineering is enough. I prefer to attack and ravage my prey."

"You think this is a vegetable market where you can pick whatever you want." Annan complained.

"Idiot, if you rush forward like that, what if something goes wrong? Do you still expect me to protect you during the battle?"

"I'm being protected by you? Are you kidding me?"

Annan's provocation method was very effective, and she immediately took the bait: "Hurry up and start."

Esdeath's breath gradually became quieter, and Annan, who felt the change, had a bad smile on his face.

Take out a wooden stick.

watch out!

Back to the present, Esdeath smiled slightly and looked sideways at Annan.

"I was really embarrassed by you at that time."

"To each other," Annan said.

"When you taught me how to use weapons, there was no time when I wasn't beaten half to death."

"But when did you awaken your domineering domineering power?" Annan asked, "You didn't even tell me."

"Well, it's a secret." Esdeath couldn't help but smile, "It has something to do with you, but I won't tell you."

"Okay, whatever you want."
