_________ POV Enel_________
Three months.
I spent three months going through the motions of training and constantly studying those poneglyphs.
I ended up doing what I could for training, Gold turned out to be a good thing to use for weights, so I asked Gan Fall to give so more.
I also got started on building a mall ship using the old Enel's design. I plan to make it entirely out of gold, morize its structure and form it at any ti I need.
This is so that I can turn it into a weapon of sorts if needed. Being able to mould conductive tals with my electricity is a really great boon for my fruit, sothing that I might've underestimated at first.
I've made what I call a 'deceptive weapon'.
I managed to condense a lot of gold within my staff, that way I'm able to constantly expand and retract it, taking enemies by surprise with constant changes in the reach of my weapons.
It should be noted that I obviously didn't have any formal training in using weapons in my past life, I only did so MMA. Thankfully Enel's mories did provide with so experience using the staff, as he was apparently considered adept at it.
I've managed to easily combine that with my ideas and create a new style. One based on both speed and sharpness.
It wasn't hard since staves, spears and tridents are extrely similar in wielding style. It needs so work but it's still a great improvent to just bludgeoning people with a golden bat, as Enel did before.
My progress is also easy to see, as I grew stronger with each day. People in this world are simply built differently by the looks of it.
Enel was also an inherently talented individual, he wasted that talent by disregarding his training. But he was still absurdly strong despite not having trained at all his entire life after getting a devil fruit.
I was now able to make noticeable progress, constantly having to change weights and ask Gan Fall for so more gold.
The stronger I get, the more gold I can condense inside my staff, making my style more and more effective. The more weight my weapon has, the more damage it will do as well.
It's a bit difficult to tell, but my staff should be weighing at least a ton by now. And this is a weight I can move comfortably around with.
To the point where I can barely feel it.
I could condense even more tals into my staff, but I do need to be flexible at all tis for my fighting style, so this is ideal currently.
My body hasn't changed all that much, but my muscles do look a bit more well-defined.
At so point Wyper also joined in my training, he is quite formidable by this island's standards as well. It was fun to finally have a sparring partner.
I obviously didn't use my devil fruit, that would've defeated the whole purpose. But apparently, the holds learnt in jiu-jitsu are extrely effective even in this world. Even more so now that I have what so could classify as superhuman strength.
In the end, Wyper taught a few moves and how to use so more interesting dials, and I taught him a bit of grappling.
It was a great bonding experience, also extrely fruitful for both of us.
While my training has been more than fruitful overall, the sa cannot be said about the decyphering of the Poneglyphs... Now, I know I was confident at first, but it seems that this language is a bit more complicated than I first thought.
Only now, after a full three months, did I manage to get a basic understanding of the language, which in turn enabled to read and sowhat understand the other Poneglyph that was interesting on this island.
I now know the locations of Pluton and Poseidon, both ancient weapon that was previously ntioned in the show.
Well, I don't know their exact location, but I do know that one of them is sowhere in the country of Wano. This world's version of feudal Japan. Going there would be interesting, but I don't really care much for the ancient weapons. And the other is on the Fishman Island.
I want to look for the poneglyphs both of these places at so point though.
I still have plenty to find in this part of the grand line, so there is no rush to be had in that regard.
My proficiency with this language isn't exactly as high as Nico Robin's, but I can at least understand most texts if I am given an hour or two.
I guess I shouldn't have expected to be able to replicate the years of hard work and research that the people of Ohara put in just a few months.
Even if I had a boost in having an already translated phrase, a language is never this simple, especially one that was made for the explicit purpose of covertly teaching ancient history to future generations.
I've also taken to wearing glasses, sothing I needed in my past life. Here it's more of a fashion statent than anything since I have pretty well-developed observation haki and perfectly working eyes.
I always liked wearing glasses because I always felt that they made smarter. I always felt that I could read faster as if I could concentrate on things much easier.
Right now, I've already made a change in my wardrobe. I had to ask Gan Fall for help with that, again.
With his help, I now wear a deep blue formal suit, with a white shirt, matching pants and shoes. Gan Fall ordered it from one of the tailors within Skypea, it's custom made and it fits perfectly.
The best part is that, although it looks like formal wear, it is made of an extrely elastic fabric that allows to fight without any hindrance.
I still train in my old clothes but having sothing I can wear while going out is rather nice. I've always liked looking presentable at all tis.
Other than that, not much has changed. I still have elongated earlobes, but I've gotten used to them. I even thought of a funny attack, where I basically turn my earings into axe heads or stingers and headbang until my enemies die.
It was fun thinking about it until I realized that it might actually be useful in taking enemies by surprise... Again.
Although it is a bit hard to control my earlobes, I can't seem to do it consistently in fact...
Now that I think about it... The Rokushiki of the marines that the CP9 were using allowed one to have complete control over their entire bodies... So learning those techniques might actually benefit greatly.
If I rember correctly, Seii Kikan was the stage where one had absolute mastery over their body. I think I need to master all of the six techniques to reach that stage... Or at least gain so semblance of mastery over them.
Either that or simply master Kami-e to perfection. I can't seem to recall, but I will eventually learn all 6 techniques anyway, as they are all great ways to get stronger.
Besides that, there are dozens of combinations that I can think of using my devil fruit and the six powers. Tekkai might also be a good start in learning armant haki...
Regardless, the more ti I spend in this body the more attacks and thods of fighting I co up with. It seems that devil fruits do indeed reward creativity.
*Ring ring ring*
I find this sound to be rather annoying, but the thing making this sound can't be any less interesting. Transponder Snails are an odd piece of technology... If you can even call it that.
The only people that have my number are Wyper and Gan Fall, so I don't have to guess who would be calling .
"Hello there! Elongated earlobes speaking" I picked up the phone, I kind of decided for this to be my opening whenever answering a transponder snail.
Figured it's best to have fun with it if I can't change it.
"... Enel, Gan Fall here." I can sohow feel the uncertainty in his voice... I guess so people just can't take jokes all that well.
"Figured~ Wyper would've at least laughed a little at that," I said while twirling the cord on my phone.
"I-I see... I wanted to give you a warning that a group of pirates are approaching the island through the sea of clouds... Just figured it's better to let you know just in case they aren't a friendly bunch..."
Upon hearing that, I couldn't help but smile widely.
"Pirates, huh?"
They're finally here... Straw hats...
