Chapter 2: Chapter 2
It was evening of the next day and I was currently resting inside a small cave while feeling stinging pain from my stomach.
Yep. I was definitely poisoned!
No, it was not done by any enemy or something. I had just eaten few palm sized green coloured fruits so they must be not edible then.
The pain was acute intense but now I could endure easy more pain than this through will power alone especially after getting struck by heavy impact of waves in sea for long time.
[ POISONING ( - ) ]
There was the notification on panel inside my mine which I wanted to see. I immediately pressed the minus option through mental command and then came the magic of my cheat.
I felt a chunk of my stamina being drained in one go before a soothing power washed my body next moment. Thick sizzling green fluid was ejected from my fingers for few seconds before the soothing power was gone along with the pain in my stomach.
Yep. The poison was definitely more lethal than I had thought because the green puddle near me had even melted the ground a little. I loved this cheat of mine more and more now.
Now I was feeling full for the first time ever since waking up in this world and the feeling was naturally very good. I clenched my first and could feel the power running inside before smiling and leaving the small cave.
This forest was really small as I had finished investigating it in the afternoon after I ate some berries after waking up. There were only few small animals, trees and a small lake. No dangerous beasts or something which eased my mind. At least I could recuperate here until my body's malnourished status was fully healed.
I could heal it using my cheat panel as this negative status was mentioned on it but the problem was that nothing happened when I mentally clicked on the minus option beside.
I knew the reason behind this too instinctively. Simply put, the amount of stamina needed was a lot and it was definitely more than what my current body could produce. So my main task was to either visit a doctor or wait in this forest while training my body until I had enough stamina.
I could not visit the village doctor due to fear of being recognized so my only option was to train in this forest for a while. Sure, the gains will not be much but I was ready to spend time and hard work to finally gain healthy body.
....
My training was very simple. 100 push ups,100 squats , 10 kilometers run etc. Exactly Saitama style training.
I could not complete even twenty push ups in one go when I trained for the first time but it was important to have a goal, right?.
I dont know how many times I had collapsed from draining my stamina during training but the gains were good enough. Due to malnourished body, my body did not gain much strength and stamina but the amount was still stacking up.
The food only consisted of berries and fruits which mostly contained at least some amount of poison. No wonder I had not seen any villagers coming to this forest for picking food as they must know this knowlege with experience. I was weak but could still hunt some small rabbits by setting up crude traps. No way, they wreck still very fast for my body to react so I could only kill them this way.
I could feel that my body was becoming healthier little by little but the pace was too slow without the correct treatment method.
Anyhow, now more than one month had passed since I started training and I could instinctively feel that I had enough stamina now to cure my malnourished status.
It's about time as honestly I was starting to feel frustrated by now because I had no other way to know about the exact amount of stamina needed expect instinct which should be related to this panel too.
....
I was definitely going to feel drained later so I immediately went inside the small cave and closed its entrance with a heavy rock which I could barely drag with my current strength. I left a little space for air to pass inside though.
[ MALNOURISHED (-)]
I did not waste time and mentally clicked the minutes tab after summoning the panel inside my mind.
" Fuu.. Fuuu.."
Almost immediately my breathing became hard because the damn panel took almost all the stamina from my body in one go. The feeling was definitely not pleasant but my anger immediately vanished when the all familiar soothing energy started running inside my body.
This time I could feel much more as my cells were quivering causing me to feel ticklish all over my body. The fatigue due to loss of stamina was there but I could not feel it as my body was feeling more and more stronger with time.
" Crack.. Crack.. "
Crackling sounds rang inside the cave as I could feel some kind of shift inside my bones.
Then few ten seconds later , the soothing energy was gone now. I was eager to check for the changes in the body but the fatigue seemed to emerge in one go as my eyelids dropped involuntarily and soon closed as I fell asleep on the cold and hard ground inside the cave.
.....
" Ha! Ha! "
I was grinning and shouting while pounding a tree with my fists excitedly soon after waking up and eating some berries from my stock.
Why wont I feel excited? After all my body felt like it belonged to some other person due to the large amount of brimming strength inside.
I was roughly more than five times stronger than before which was definitely beyond my expectations.
Now my back did not ache much after putting weight on it and even my height had increased from the previous 190 cm to 194 cm tall.
I had the instincts of old Timothy but still this strength felt unreal to me as my body on Earth was more than ten or maybe twenty times weaker than it. Timothy had not even trained in all his life as he barely hunted few times using traps and thrusting wooden spear from a distance.
I was feeling excited about the future possibilities as the potential of this body was too much to be tapped if I was willing to bear hardships. And I was definitely willing.
After all I wanted to become a free pirate on the sea and becoming strong like Kaido or Garp or even stronger than them. Just thinking about fighting those best humans made my blood boil with extreme excitement.
You know what? If someone offered me to exchange this chest panel of mine with a powerful system or something , I will most likely not exchange it after personally feeling its magic and the future possibilities which this panel provided me with.
Anyway now that I was finally healthy, I had to make a decision to either leave this island now or leave after training here for a while.
I without hesitation chose to train because the environment here was quiet and to my liking.
I had found many rocks of different weights in this timeframe which could be used for my insane training method.
I had this panel which could heal my body without much price and for unlimited number of times at that. So I was definitely going to abuse this fact.
People trained their bodies in moderation so that they don't damage their foundation which would affect their future growth and potential.
I had no such concern though because my panel could easily heal my body using some stamina even if I damaged my foundation. Simply put, I just needed to posses resolve which I did not lack. After all I wanted to kill the pirates who had captured old Timothy and even those auction house people who had forced him to live as a slave and even wanted to sell him off somewhere for damn money. He even suffered bullets in his body in their hands.
This hatred was too much for me to bear who had to forced to endure such hardships right after coming in this world from the peaceful Earth where I lived average but comfortable life.
To become strong in short amount of time, I have decided to complete Saitama training while lifting heavy rocks simultaneously. This way I can force the potential out of this body very quickly but the price would be unimaginable pain and damaged foundation.
I could heal the foundation of my body without much trouble with the panel but as for the pain? I have decided to not nullify my sensation of pain during this training.
After all I did not want to become a powerhouse who was afraid of body pain of all things and most importantly this way my willpower would definitely be polished to extreme which was necessary for a Pirate who had to live in constant and unpredictable danger on the sea. Besides Haki was a power closely related to willpower and I definitely wanted to learn it in future.
Sigh.. this was the only way as I had only a little tolerance for pain which I had gained in this new life due to some hardships. To forge my character anew, being hard to myself was necessary and getting rid of my lazy personality from Earth was my priority..
So after taking break for two days, I decided to start my hellish training.
