Chapter 106 Conflict! Training Begins!

Chapter 106 Conflict! Training Begins!
"Sir Speed ​​Flash hasn't arrived yet. If you want to join the training camp, wait here."

Death Gatling, ranked 8th in Class A, spoke very coldly. He didn't have any opinion about Sweet Mask, but this guy looked down on people, which made people angry.

"He's still late... This guy is not even worthy of being an A-rank, let alone an S-rank! Is he going to be late even when facing a disaster?!"

Sweetie Mask's handsome face revealed an angry expression. The hero in his mind must be perfect, and even if it is impossible to be perfect, he must strive to be close to perfection.

It would be fine if it was just those small fry, but as an S-class hero, Speedy Flash has no self-awareness at all, which is simply a disgrace to S-class heroes.

"Don't go too far! Lord Speed ​​Flash became an S-class hero because of his strength and achievements. It's not your turn as the No. 1 in A-class to judge whether he is qualified or not!"

Lily stood up again. Although the time they had spent together was short, Borsalino took the initiative to step forward and save City A when her mother was in crisis.

Whether it was opening a hero training camp to teach heroes to become stronger, both left a deep impression on Lily.

In order to protect Borsalino's reputation, Lily did not hesitate to stand up and accuse the other party, even though the person she once admired was Sweetheart Mask, who was ranked No. 1 in Class A.

'boom! '

Before Lily could react, Sweetheart Mask had already crossed a distance of dozens of meters, grabbed her neck and slammed her into the gate of the training camp.

"Another self-righteous woman! Why do you think I should stay at number one in Class A?"

Sweetheart Mask frowned slightly and relaxed his grip on Lily's neck a little to avoid strangling the girl to death.

Although he has tried very hard to control his emotions, his personality is becoming more and more extreme, which makes Sweetheart Mask feel a little uneasy.

"Asshole! Let go of Lily!"

Seeing Lily being attacked, Eyelash and Mountain Ape, who were ranked 2nd and 3rd in Class B respectively, rushed over immediately.

They were able to be promoted to the 2nd and 3rd place in Class B mainly due to the contribution of the Fubuki Group, but their own strength has indeed reached the top of Class B.

Even if the two of them join forces to fight against the lower ranked A-level heroes, they can still barely put up a fight.

"Bang, bang!"

Unfortunately, Eyelashes and Mountain Ape were kicked away by Sweetheart Mask's lightning-fast kicks just as they pounced forward.

'Glasses', a former member of the Fubuki group who was at a relatively far distance, had just rushed out of the crowd when he was knocked to the ground by the flying Eyelashes and Mountain Ape.

Seeing this scene, those A-level heroes who wanted to stand out calmed down a little.

"Don't mess around, that guy just wants to establish his authority, he won't hurt the girl..."

Magic Hands grabbed Qing Yan, not wanting his good friend to get beaten in vain.

Sweet Mask, ranked first in A-class, has strength comparable to that of S-class heroes. This is a fact recognized by the entire Hero Association.

Not to mention the Fubuki group, even if all the heroes present joined forces, they would most likely not be a match for Sweet Mask.

This is also the main reason why the Hero Association has repeatedly tolerated Sweet Mask's reckless behavior. This guy is not S-class but has the strength of an S-class hero. As long as the Hero Association still needs his combat power, they will not pursue Sweet Mask's behavior.

"Listen to me clearly! I'll repeat it again. The reason why I stayed at the top of A-class is to prevent those unqualified scum from ascending to the throne of S-class! Scum should have some self-awareness. The training camp is just a lie..."

Before Sweetheart Mask finished his words, a crescent-shaped flying slash passed in front of him at an astonishing speed, and the arm that was pinching Lily's neck was directly broken into two pieces.

The sturdy iron door behind Lily was also split in half by this blow.

"Mist Foot, Moonlight."

It was not until the iron gate fell that everyone heard the sound coming from the air.

Borsalino, who had changed into a floral shirt and beach pants, was descending from the sky holding Fubuki.

Fubuki, who had just landed, ran quickly towards Lily, and Sweet Mask didn't care that his arm was cut off by Borsalino, and stared at the man he had been thinking about for several days.

"The ninth-ranked Speed ​​Flash in S-Class?"

Sweetheart Mask's expression changed from its previous anger to become unusually serious.

The strength displayed by Borsalino was a little beyond his imagination. Even if he was fully focused, he might not be able to avoid the wind blade with that speed. It was indeed worthy of his amazing speed.

"What are you doing?"

Borsalino spoke lazily, without any dignity of an S-class hero.

If no one had just seen him cut off Sweet Mask's arm, I'm afraid no one would have realized how dangerous Borsalino was at this moment.

"Is this guy the newly promoted S-rank? He's really tall..."

"He's a powerful character, but Sweetheart Mask is not simple either."

"Will they fight later? I still want to join the training camp..."

……

The heroes looked at Borsalino and Sweet Mask nervously, and no one knew how to deal with the fight between two S-class heroes.

Although Sweet Mask is only ranked first in A-class, no one would think that this guy is not as strong as an S-class hero.

"I hope you will give up the title of S-class hero and return to A-class. I am willing to guarantee that you can directly become the second in A-class. As long as you pass my test, you can return to S-class again."

Sweet Mask has also realized that Borsalino probably really has the strength of an S-class hero, and the original plan to prove in front of everyone that he is not worthy of S-class must be changed.

Now he can only hope that Speed ​​Flash can understand his difficulties and voluntarily give up the title of S-class hero. Otherwise, everyone will be able to surpass him and be promoted to S-class directly in the future, which will simply tarnish the glory of S-class heroes.

"Tsk, you're daydreaming because it's daytime? That's not a good thing."

Borsalino sneered. Apart from those celestial dragons who only knew how to disgust people, he had never seen someone as self-righteous as Sweet Mask.

Perhaps Sweet Mask's original intention was partially correct, but why is he qualified to judge whether an S-class hero is qualified?
The Hero Association will at least make judgments based on strength and achievements, but Sweet Mask doesn't even have a quantifiable standard and makes judgments entirely based on his subjective ideas.

"If you don't agree, don't blame me for offending you..."

Sweetheart Mask had already taken the severed hand that his assistant had picked up for him, and directly attached it to the broken arm, and it was restored to its original state in an instant.

This super strong recovery ability is also the signature ability of Sweetheart Mask. Broken hands and feet will not have any impact on his combat power.

"You can try……"

Before Borsalino finished his words, the ground beneath Sweetheart Mask's feet exploded, and then a figure as fast as lightning rushed straight towards him.

Super speed and strength, coupled with an almost inhuman recovery ability, this is the strength that allows Sweet Mask to occupy the first place in A-level!

"So fast!"

Sharp Star, who had almost had a conflict with the mountain ape before, couldn't help but exclaimed. Is it really possible for humans to possess such a speed that one could see the afterimage?

'boom! ’

Sweet Mask's fist pierced through Borsalino's 'body' and shattered the low wall behind him.

But the next second, Borsalino appeared behind Sweetheart Mask, easily grabbed the back of Sweetheart Mask's neck, and was ready to smash him to the ground.

"Drink!"

Sweetheart Mask felt his neck being grabbed and reacted instantly, kicking Borsalino with a fast and fierce whip kick at an angle that violated human common sense.

"Rubber Man?"

But at the moment when Sweetheart Mask kicked, Borsalino's voice had already reached his ears, as if he had "seen" his move a long time ago.

Before the whip kick could land on Borsalino, the hand that grabbed the back of his neck suddenly exerted force and slammed him into the ground at a speed far beyond Sweetheart Mask's imagination.

'boom! ’

The cement ground was smashed by Sweetheart Mask into spider-web-like cracks, and Sweetheart Mask's head was stuffed into the ground by Borsalino, like a rice seedling planted upside down on the ground.

In a flash, the previously invincible Sweet Mask was killed by Borsalino in an almost instant manner.

"How amazing! Speed ​​Flash-senpai!"

Before everyone could react, a muscular girl with a high ponytail and wearing a competitive swimming suit shouted excitedly.

He just glanced at the heroes and then looked away. This was Mizuki, the 71st-ranked commander in Class B. He was the rookie hero that the Hero Association was promoting this year and was said to have the potential to become an S-class hero.

"You managed to take down that sweet mask so quickly... You're worthy of being an S-class hero!"

Magic Hand, who had always been suspicious of Borsalino, couldn't help but exclaim in amazement. As long as one is ranked high in A-level and wants to be promoted to S-level, there are few heroes who have not suffered from Sweet Mask.

That guy claimed to ensure that no weaklings could become S-class heroes, but he often targeted A-class heroes like them who had the opportunity to be promoted.

"So strong!"

Glasses, who had already left the Fubuki group, stood in the crowd, looking at Borsalino with a face full of longing.

The reason why he chose to leave the Fubuki group was that he wanted to make himself stronger through pressure.

Even though he has been working hard for such a long time, his strength has not changed much. The only improvement is that he has the courage to fight monsters stronger than himself.

Unfortunately, such courage does not mean much. When he saw Lily being attacked by Sweet Mask, he also wanted to save Lily, but he turned out to be worse than Eyelashes and Mountain Ape.

"Is Lily okay?"

Borsalino walked over to Fubuki who was supporting Lily. Apart from the handprint of Sweetie Mask on her neck, Lily was fine.

"I'm fine, but Master Borsalino, that guy..."

Lily swallowed worriedly. Sweetheart Mask's entire head was smashed into the soil, and even the ground shook from being hit by Sweetheart Mask's head.

With such a violent collision, unless the head is made of iron, it would have been broken, right?

"Don't worry, he's No. 1 in Class A after all. Don't you see that apart from you, few people are worried about him?"

Borsalino spoke very easily. From his observation Haki's perception, Sweetheart Mask's vitality was still very strong, almost comparable to that of Xiaoqiang.

But why does this guy give him a feeling similar to that vaccine man? Could he be a weirdo in disguise?

"There's nothing to worry about. Even if Sweet Mask dies, we can still appeal to the association. Don't forget that it was that guy who attacked you first!"

Perhaps she had played the role of a younger sister enough, Fubuki had always taken care of Lily as if she were her own sister. Seeing that she was almost strangled to death, the anger in her heart burned uncontrollably.

"Lord Fubuki, Lord Speed ​​Flash, I'm sorry we couldn't protect Lily..."

Eyelashes and Mountain Ape walked over very ashamed. If Borsalino had not arrived in time, Lily would not know what kind of harm she would have suffered.

"Master Fubuki, long time no see..."

Glasses in the crowd was also confused for a long time, but he still took the initiative to come over and say hello to Fubuki.

Among the thirty-one members who joined the Fubuki group, he is the first member to voluntarily leave the group so far.

It would be fine if he could rise to the top from then on, but he is doing worse than when he was in the Fubuki group.

"Well, I've heard about your performance. You didn't bring shame to our Fubuki Group. When you want to come back, just tell Eyelashes."

Unlike other team members, Fubuki did not regard Glasses as a traitor. Instead, she affirmed Glasses' recent performance.

"Nice to meet you again, Master Speed ​​Flash... I'm sorry I didn't step forward just now."

Qing Yan was actually ready to take action just now, but was stopped by his good friend. However, given his personality, he would not use something he had not done to defend himself.

"Sir Speed ​​Flash, Qingyan was stopped by me just now. If you want to blame someone, please blame me."

Seeing that his friend actually took the initiative to ask for forgiveness from Speed ​​Flash, Magic Hands quickly stepped forward and defended his friend at the risk of offending Borsalino.

"Don't worry, I don't blame you. If that guy was replaced by a weirdo, I believe you wouldn't stand idly by."

Borsalino spoke very calmly. Unlike Sakaski who would kill deserters when he saw them, Borsalino always believed that rights determine obligations.

Lower-level marines have an obligation to uphold justice, but that does not mean they have an obligation to fight to the death when faced with an unstoppable enemy.

That kind of obligation belongs to better-treated naval officers, who have received more training, enjoyed better treatment, and possessed greater strength, and naturally require paying a greater price.

The same logic applies to the heroes. Moreover, these heroes do not receive any special treatment, and the subsidies from the Hero Association are insignificant compared to their efforts.

Of course, this was mainly because Lily was not seriously injured. Otherwise, given Borsalino's protective nature, he would probably have a different expression at this moment.

"Puff!"

With his head buried in the ground, Sweetheart Mask struggled desperately and finally pulled his deformed head out of the concrete. Then he shook his head vigorously, and the deformed head returned to its original shape at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"What a tenacious vitality! Is this guy really not a weirdo?"

Borsalino asked with some curiosity. Even after the animal-type devil fruit user awakened, his recovery ability was much worse than Sweet Mask.

Broken limbs can be directly connected, and a deformed head can be easily restored to its original shape. Even Kaido relies more on defense.

If its limbs were really cut off, it would be unlikely that it could be reattached and continued to be used like Sweet Mask.

"Sweetheart Mask has strong close combat capabilities, and his recovery and pain tolerance are also very strong. He might be a cyborg. Monsters won't be heroes, and Sweetheart Mask always kills monsters without mercy..."

Fubuki did not choose to speak ill of him just because the Fubuki group had a conflict with Sweet Mask.

Although Sweetheart Mask's style and personality are very hateful, most people can't really find any fault with what he does.

"Then let him go for now and officially start the training camp."

Borsalino didn't take the Sweetheart Mask seriously and walked straight into the training ground.

The Hero Association's construction capabilities are indeed very good. In just one day, they transformed an ordinary piece of flat land into a training ground that basically meets Borsalino's requirements.

"Sir Speed ​​Flash, are we going to receive training here next?"

The B-class hero 'Bone', who was wearing a tights with a bone pattern, couldn't help but ask. He had already seen the strength of the Speed ​​Flash.

Being able to easily defeat the No. 1 A-class Sweet Mask, such strength is indeed that of an S-class hero.

But looking at the training ground in front of him that was so simple that it looked like a wasteland, Gu was a little skeptical about the training effect here.

"Yes, this is where you will receive training for the next month... If you have no objection, shall we start now?"

Borsalino glanced at the crowd. Excluding Sweet Mask, there were a total of sixty-two people. Forty-nine were registered heroes, twelve were qualified members of the Fubuki team, and the other was Fubuki who did not participate in the training.

"Eh? Is this how it starts?"

"It's really exciting. I wonder what kind of training it will be..."

"No matter how harsh the training is, I will stick to it to the end!"

……

The heroes are all eager to try, and some have already begun to fantasize about becoming stronger and being promoted to A-class or even S-class heroes.

"I'm going to teach you the Six Marine Styles, starting with the Moon Step..."

Borsalino jumped up lightly on the spot, and under the shocked gazes of the heroes, he slowly rose up by stepping on the air.

Although there are heroes with super powers like Tornado, and robots like Metal Knight who can fly, but moving in mid-air by stepping on the air like Borsalino is still beyond everyone's comprehension.

"And then there's Storm Legs!"

Borsalino kicked casually in mid-air, and in the shocked eyes of everyone, a visible vacuum wave flew out, cutting a gully on the ground that was dozens of meters long, and more than one meter wide and deep.

"This is... the move that cut off Sweetheart Mask's arm!"

The magician couldn't help but exclaimed, and the eyes of the heroes who heard his words became more and more fiery.

They didn't expect to be able to cut off Sweet Mask's arm after learning it, but killing a few monsters should not be a problem, right?

"Finally, it's shaving... Don't look for it, I'm here."

Borsalino's figure suddenly disappeared, and none of the dozens of heroes present could see him clearly.

When Borsalino took the initiative to speak, they realized that Borsalino appeared directly behind them.

"So fast! Is this the Speed ​​Flash?"

The heroes all showed excited expressions, as if they regarded the abilities that Borsalino had shown so far, including his speed of more than three times the speed of sound, as the abilities of the Marine Roku-style.

Does this mean that after they learn the Six Styles of the Navy, they will become a weakened version of Speed ​​Flash?
"Moon Step, Storm Kick and Shaving. Once you have mastered these three moves, I will teach you the remaining three."

Borsalino decided to start teaching from the three interrelated styles. Among the remaining three styles, paper painting was too difficult to practice, and iron blocks and finger guns were somewhat inappropriate when facing monsters.

Besides, in a month, most heroes, unless they are extremely talented, probably can't even learn the first three moves.

"Speed ​​Flash-senpai! Can we start now?"

The 71st-ranked captain Mizuki of Class B shouted loudly and energetically. Although his appearance did not quite conform to Borsalino's aesthetics, the captain Mizuki's personality was still quite likable.

"Of course, then let's start with the first training item, running! Run around the field twenty times!"

Borsalino spoke very straightforwardly. The training ground covers an area of ​​nearly 150,000 square meters, and the length of the runway alone is nearly five kilometers. A hundred kilometers can basically drain the physical strength of most heroes.

"Twenty... twenty laps?!"

"You must be kidding! How can you possibly finish running?"

"This intensity will kill people, right?"

……

The heroes who were eager to try just now were poured cold water by Borsalino in the blink of an eye.

Their willingness to accept rigorous training does not mean they are willing to die.

"Oh, by the way, to make sure you can finish the run, let me find you a companion to run with!"

Borsalino clapped his hands and sent a message to Orochimaru in the chat group.

The next moment, in the horrified gaze of the heroes, a giant snake with a pure white body, a feather crest, a body length of more than 50 meters, and a head larger than a heavy truck appeared in front of Borsalino.

"Quetzalcoatl, Orochimaru should have told you everything, so I'll leave the rest to you."

Borsalino said with a smile. Originally, Orochimaru recommended letting Mandrake to do the job, but considering that Mandrake would really eat people if they caught up, Borsalino still chose his old friend Quetzalcoatl.

"Yes, I will try my best to complete the task!"

The voice of the feathered serpent became very clear. Although only a short time had passed, the big snake seemed to have grown a lot.

"Snakes...snakes can talk!"

The heroes couldn't help but exclaim in surprise. If the Quetzalcoatl hadn't appeared and not started wreaking havoc, they would have thought it was some kind of snake-like monster.

"If you leave the runway or fall to the last place for more than one minute, you will be prepared to be snake food. Of course, you can also choose to resist. Those who can beat the feathered serpent don't have to run! Start running for your lives now!"

Borsalino waved his hand, and Quetzalcoatl cooperated very well, pretending to be extremely ferocious, and rushed towards the heroes.

Although Quetzalcoatl's appearance and temper are much better than those of the Ten Thousand Serpents, its huge size means that most heroes will run away when they see it rushing towards them.

Only a very small number of brave or foolhardy heroes chose to fight a desperate battle with Quetzalcoatl.

"Asshole! Let me show you how powerful our vest hero is!"

The vest vegetarian bulged his muscles, roared, and rushed towards the feathered serpent.

He might not be a match for the snake in a head-on collision, but as long as he could avoid the snake's charge and jump onto its head...

"Sa!"

The feathered serpent opened its mouth and sprayed out a large cloud of white poisonous mist. Its venom was naturally much weaker than that of other snakes in the Longdi Cave, but it unexpectedly gained the ability to paralyze the enemy.

Unless the opponent is extremely large or extremely strong, any enemy will be paralyzed and unable to move if they are touched by a trace of the poisonous mist.

The vest vegetarian crashed into the poisonous fog and fell to the ground on the spot. Even an S-class hero might not be able to withstand the poisonous fog of Quetzalcoatl, let alone a small fry like him.

"Keep your distance! Don't approach rashly!"

Death Gatling said in a deep voice, while raising the mechanical arm equipped with the Gatling gun and firing wildly at the Quetzalcoatl.

"Ding ding ding ding..."

A flurry of bullets pierced through the poisonous fog and hit the Quetzalcoatl's head, but were all blocked by its extremely strong scales.

However, the impact of the bullets also made the careless Quetzalcoatl suffer. Strong defense does not mean invincibility. If you underestimate these heroes too much, you may end up in trouble.

"Swoosh... bang!"

Suddenly, a sound of breaking wind was heard in the vast white poisonous fog. Before Gatlin realized that something was wrong, he was whipped away by Quetzalcoatl's whip-like tail.

Fortunately, Quetzalcoatl was very measured, and its tail only tore through the armor of Death Gatling. If it had used its full strength, it might have directly removed Death Gatling from the list of the Hero Association.

"Spring-loaded sword!"

Just as the Death Gatling was whipped away by Quetzalcoatl's tail, a rapier suddenly extended through the poisonous mist and pierced Quetzalcoatl's head.

The scales that were swept by the bullet were already on the verge of breaking, and the sword directly pierced through the Quetzalcoatl's scales, causing it to cry out in pain.

But that's all. Compared to the huge size of Quetzalcoatl, the attack of 'Spring Beard', which is ranked 33rd in A-level, is roughly the same as being pricked by a needle on a human from the perspective of Quetzalcoatl.

Although it hurts, it is a bit of a pipe dream to say that there is a chance to defeat Quetzalcoatl.

The feathered serpent was very annoyed after being suddenly stung, and swung its long tail straight towards Springbeard.

This had a bit of a personal grudge feel to it. Given Springbeard's physical strength, if he was hit by Quetzalcoatl's tail, he would have to stay in the hospital for three to five days.

'Snapped! '

The feathered serpent's tail hit the flagstone floor paved with super quick-drying cement heavily, and the flagstone floor, which was as hard as granite, was directly shattered.

However, Springbeard dodged the attack with great ease before the feathered serpent's tail fell.

"I am quite confident in my ability to dodge!"

Springbeard stroked his proud mustache with some pride. The two A-class heroes ranked above him were easily defeated by the snake. Only he could deal with this terrifying snake.

Unfortunately, Springbeard was happy too early. Before he could figure out how to use his dodging ability to launch a counterattack against the giant snake, the feathered serpent had already opened its bloody mouth impatiently.

"Wind Escape·Big Breakthrough!"

The feathered serpent's belly bulged as if it was pregnant, and then astonishing wind pressure gushed out of its mouth.

Without even giving Springbeard a chance to react, he was blasted flying.

As a snake from the Ryuchi Cave, Quetzalcoatl is not as naturally toxic as its peers, nor does it have a body as strong as the Manganese snakes. Yet it is still favored by Orochimaru, so it must have a talent worthy of praise.

However, in the blink of an eye, three powerful A-level heroes were "instantly killed" by Quetzalcoatl. There were several heroes who originally wanted to stay and fight Quetzalcoatl, but now they all obediently began to run circles according to Borsalino's requirements.

Quetzalcoatl also followed slowly.

It is quite receptive to this kind of "game". Compared with the man-eating snakes, the feathered serpent prefers to play with these two-legged beasts.

"Take the three of them aside and make up for the training they've missed after they wake up."

Borsalino instructed the members of the Fubuki team who did not participate in the training camp that not all members could meet the standards set by Borsalino.

Although all members of Fubuki's team are B-class heroes, the gap between the upper and lower limits of B-class heroes is astonishingly large. Even if we ignore the bald guy who will raise the upper limit of B-class heroes to the sky in the near future, the strongest few B-class heroes can still make a name for themselves in the new world, and the weakest ones are not even much better than the marines of the headquarters.

It is precisely because of this that less than half of the team members are qualified to participate in the training camp, and the rest can only be responsible for miscellaneous work in the training camp.

But after seeing how miserable the heroes who participated in the training camp were...

These team members who were originally a little unhappy were actually somewhat glad that they were unqualified, otherwise they would have become the "victims" of this hellish special training.

"Persist! Persist! Persist! Even if you fall down at the end, you must finish running twenty laps!"

The 'Unlicensed Knight' ranked first in Class C was the first to start running!
When other heroes were still hesitating whether to fight Quetzalcoatl, only the Unlicensed Knight chose to trust Borsalino unconditionally.

This was not because Borsalino was particularly convincing, nor was it because the unlicensed knight had any mental problems.

But he doesn't want to miss any chance to become stronger!
No matter how small the chances are, the unlicensed knight is willing to take a chance!
Unfortunately, no matter how firm his belief is, it cannot change the fact that the Unlicensed Knight is almost the weakest hero who can participate in the training camp.

As the first in C-class, the physical strength of the unlicensed knight just barely meets the standard.

Being ranked first does not mean that the unlicensed knight is the strongest in Class C. It is more a ranking that is improved by the level of activity.

Obviously, he was the first hero to start running laps, but after only three laps, the unlicensed knight unexpectedly fell to last place.
