Chapter 57 : Busoshoku Haki

After a month in the room inside the second floor of the fortress . Roja stood there holding a sword . He was looking with full concentration at the sword’s body while the sword was surrounded by a strange atmosphere . This strange atmosphere was Busoshoku Haki . “Busoshoku … Hardening!” With an idea Roja tried to gather all of his Haki together . hum! The Haki gathered with Roja’s control and began to condense on the sword . But after condensing to certain extent and a little bit of blue ink color started to appear it collapsed Directly . “A month’s time is really too short . Practicing Haki while my strength was lacking a bit and my control is insufficient . So i can’t use it fully yet?” Roja murmured and then took a deep breath and continued his practice . In fact, Roja already could use haki half a month ago . Roja then began to practice getting his Haki out and into the sword . But he couldn’t make the Haki condense and form on the Sword or on his hand yet . Roja also practiced Kenbunshoku Haki at the same time . He could practice it faster then the Busoshoku . Almost in a few days Roja mastered the Kenbunshoku Haki . This confirmed Roja’s guess . The basis of this type of Haki is like his “Focus” state . The same as the rhythm of everything but you have to go the other direction to find it . As it gasp the opponent actions in order to dodge . The kenbunshoku Haki capture all the detail about the opponent . the higher the level the greater the scope of perception . In addition there nothing more powerful . Actually there is . This state is the sound of all things . This ultimate state of Kenbunshoku Haki is said to have only been reached by one person which is Rojer . This realm made him communicate with everything . Whether life or death . Everything is recorded on the world eight hundred years ago . That blank one hundred years in the historical records . Roger didn’t need to interpret the things in the poneglyph as he directly know of it’s content . (Ed: Actually Kenbunshoku Haki is like a kind of “premonition” rather than “capture all the details about the opponent” it can be even used to see the future, see more on Mantra)(Ed: And it was never said thar Roger have reached the “ultimate state”) Most people will find it difficult to achieve this level with practice . This degree of insight is almost another ability other then the Kenbunshoku Haki . Z was extremely shocked by Roja’s progress speed . At first he could point Roja to a thing or two . but now Roja doesn’t need any of his pointers anymore . Nowadays Roja’s training speed made Z numb . Roja only took several days to practice the Kenbunshoku Haki then only half a month to practice the Busoshoku Haki which made Z shocked to the point he didn’t know how speak . If Roja came now and told Z that he already mastered the Busoshoku Haki then Z won’t get surprised at all . He wanted to teach Roja how to practice Haki . But when Roja began to practice Z found that he didn’t need to teach him a thing . In many things Roja could do alone and other places he could barely pass So he simply didn’t need Z’s instruction anymore . Fortunately haki practice need some practical training . And since the theoretical aspect of Roja almost doesn’t need his instruction anymore Then Z will take the practical training really seriously . Most of the time they were in battle . During this period Garp passed by . When he saw Roja training and performance He was shocked but more pleased . In addition, Z was so dedicated in training Roja that his heart started questioning if Roja was his nephew or Z’s … …
