The battle ended quickly. Law was hit twice by Biscuit and vomited some blood, but he was not seriously injured. After all, his body had grown much tougher now and his endurance had increased accordingly.
Despite having been with Biscuit for half a year, Sanbica had never seen her fight before. Now that she saw her strength with her own eyes, she couldn't help but be amazed, 'As expected of a Single-Star Hunter, Biscuit had completely dominated Law within just a few exchanges.'
No matter what, Biscuit was a master of Shingen-ryu and one of the top hunters in the Hunter Association, so it was only natural for her to have the upper hand.
"Help him with his injuries." Biscuit said as she walked over.
Law stood up, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and approached Sanbica for treatment.
While Sanbica treated Law, Biscuit reviewed the battle just now.
If Law's Nen Ability were applied effectively, they could be a formidable weapon in close combat. However, at their current power level, they were still insufficient to pose a threat to her.
His ability to alter the terrain remotely could provide him with some strategic advantages, but the drawback was that the fluctuations in his Aura during long-range use were too obvious.
Overall, Law's precision in Nen Control was solid enough, so there was no need to go back to basics. Instead, he needed to focus on mastering advanced techniques, especially Ken and Ryu.
In Nen combat, the most fundamental yet difficult technique to master was the ability to transfer offensive and defensive Aura efficiently, which is also known as Ryu!
Unlike other techniques, achieving rapid and precise aura transfer required extensive combat experience and exceptional talent. It was not something that could be perfected through hard work alone.
A powerful Nen User must have both the ability to activate their Nen quickly and the skill to transfer their Aura for attack and defense at high speeds.
These were exactly the areas where Law was currently lacking, particularly his mastery of Ryu, which was still mediocre at best.
If Law's Ryu were a bit faster, he wouldn't have suffered internal injuries and could have continued fighting her.
'There is still half a year left. If Law wants to beat Atomu, the key will be his instantaneous battle cognition and a solid mastery of Ryu. If there is enough time, teaching him Ken isn't out of the question either.'
Biscuit rubbed her chin as she pondered.
Since Law had a solid foundation, there was no need to waste time on basic training anymore.
After a few minutes, Sanbica finished treating Law.
When Biscuit hit Law just now, she did not deliberately use Ryu to increase the power of her attack, so although Law had coughed up blood, his injuries were not very serious. With Sanbica's treatment, he would recover in about two to three days.
"Today, I will explain to you the principles of Advanced Nen Techniques, and tomorrow, we'll start the practical training."
Biscuit extended one finger as she began explaining, not minding Sanbica's presence at all.
After hearing what Biscuit said, both Law and Sambika immediately focused their attention. After all, their understanding of Advanced Nen Techniques was quite lacking.
"First, there's Shu, which involves using Ten to cover an object you're touching with your Aura. It enhances the object's durability and destructive power. Nen Users who rely on weapons tend to have a solid grasp of Shu."
"Next is In, an advanced application of Zetsu. It allows you to use Nen without your opponent noticing. This is commonly used by Conjurer, as it allows conjured objects to appear semi-transparent, making them effective for ambushes."
"Then there's Gyo, which concentrates a portion of Aura into a specific part of the body. While it's an advanced application, it's also considered a fundamental skill."
"En is a technique that combines Ten and Ren. It allows one's aura to expand outward like a circle centered on oneself, helping to detect enemies within range."
"Ken is also a combination of Ten and Ren, but its application is different from En. En disperses Aura outward in a diluted form for detection, while Ken condenses and compresses Aura to reinforce the body."
"The former has no offensive capability and is mainly used for scouting, while the latter is crucial in Nen combat."
"You need to keep in mind that although Ken can significantly enhance the body's offensive and defensive capabilities, maintaining it consumes a lot of stamina. Whether a Nen User's combat strength is up to standard depends on whether they can maintain Ken for at least half an hour."
Biscuit explained five techniques in succession. Every time she explained a technique, she would raise a finger. By the time she finished, her right hand was fully extended with all five fingers spread.
Her pace was neither too fast nor too slow, and she didn't worry about whether Law and Sanbica fully understood yet. It's because in the subsequent training, she would go over each technique thoroughly.
"Ryu is an essential skill in Nen combat, and it is also the most difficult skill to improve!"
Biscuit raised her left hand, holding up a sixth finger to indicate the sixth technique.
"Ryu refers to the ability to rapidly shift aura, which is evenly distributed across the body in Ken state, to a specific area. This allows for optimal adjustments in offense and defense. The faster the transfer, the more efficient the attack and defense transitions."
"The better your mastery of Ryu, the more effectively you can utilize your Aura. Maximizing the conversion efficiency between offense and defense ensures that no Aura is wasted."
Biscuit looked at Law and Sanbica, who were listening attentively, raised her seventh finger, and said calmly: "The last technique, Ko!"
"If Ryu is the hardest technique to improve, then Ko is the most difficult technique to master."
"Ko combines the five fundamental techniques: Ten, Zetsu, Ren, Hatsu, and Gyo. In simple terms, it concentrates all Manifested Aura into a single point, achieving 100% offensive power. This can be applied to a specific body part or a weapon in hand."
"However, focusing all Aura into one spot leaves the rest of the body defenseless. If your opponent seizes the opportunity, you could suffer severe injuries, or even death."
"These are the seven Advanced Nen Techniques beyond the basics. I'll create a tailored training plan for each one, so don't worry if you don't fully grasp them yet."
After explaining all the techniques, Biscuit lowered her hands and looked at Law.
Shu, In, Gyo, En, Ken, Ryu, and Ko, these were the techniques Law needed to master and improve as soon as possible.
Both Law and Sanbica had excellent memory and comprehension, so they had already committed everything to memory after just one explanation.
"No need to wait until tomorrow, I can start training right now!" Just by listening to Biscuit's concise explanation, Law was eager to master the Advanced Nen Techniques as soon as possible.
Seeing Law so impatient, Biscuit could guess the reason. It was nothing more than the frustration from being thoroughly beaten earlier.
And she was right. Law had trained relentlessly for half a year, yet he was still overwhelmed by Biscuit, who was holding back. It must be known that he had given it his all during training.
In fact, his training results in six months were equivalent to at least three years' worth of effort, thanks to Cookie's support ability, which allowed him to maximize his time five or even tenfold.
Yet despite all that, Law was still crushed, so mastering these Advanced Nen Techniques quickly was his only hope to change the situation.
"Call Black Cat out." Biscuit thought about it, and decided to take advantage of Law's motivation and start training immediately despite Law's injuries.
"You heard her." Law immediately raised his right hand upon hearing that.
Black Cat reluctantly came out from the back of Law's hand.
"Turn into a stick." Biscuit ordered as she looked at Black Cat, who had just appeared.
"No way! That's the biggest insult to me!" Black Cat refused without hesitation.
Biscuit said nothing and simply raised her fist with a smile.
Seeing Biscuit's ominous smile, Black Cat instantly backed down and obediently transformed into a black stick.
Holding the black stick, Biscuit said, "I want you to stay in Ren state. Then, I will hit a random part of your body with the stick. Before the stick hits you, you must use Gyo to gather some of your Aura on the part where the stick is about to fall."
After she finished speaking, she suddenly swung the staff at Law's right shoulder at a relatively slow speed, and then said, "This is the starting speed. I'll gradually increase it based on your progress. Understand?"
Law nodded firmly, immediately channeling his Aura throughout his body in preparation.
Biscuit didn't start right away. Instead, she looked at Sanbica and said, "You should join too."
When Sanbica heard this, her eyes immediately lit up. She couldn't do physical exercise, but she could definitely participate in this Nen Technique training.
