Seeing that Hera was affected, Zephyr adjusted the gravity to 3x. Seeing her finally suppressed, Zephyr showed a gratified smile: "Go run. How can you comprehend Haki without pushing your body to its limits?"
Seeing Hera preparing to deactivate her spirit dress, Zephyr added: "Do not deactivate the spirit dress. Since your ability can be maintained constantly, you must keep using it. Master the physical attributes of your body while using the spirit dress."
Hera paused her movents upon hearing this. Her first thought was whether she had to wear this gothic lolita dress all the ti—it was too embarrassing. Suddenly rembering that in the original work, a Spirit's spirit dress could be freely restructured, she decided to give it a try.
With a thought from Hera, the black and red dress turned into light, instantly transforming into the trainee uniform of the Marine training camp.
After saying goodbye to Zephyr, she headed to the training grounds to start her laps.
Zephyr remarked with emotion: "What a monster of a girl. She was a bit uncomfortable when I first adjusted the gravity, but after just a short while, she can run and jump again."
After she started running, Hera quickly adapted to the pressure of triple gravity. Soon, she caught up to the first tier in terms of laps. When she caught up to Kuina, Hera had a sudden mischievous thought. Every ti she passed Kuina, she would whisper in her ear: "On your left."
This made Kuina's teeth itch with frustration. She silently thought to herself, '"On your left," huh? Just wait until we get back to the dorm and see who's on top.'
Soon, everyone finished their 200 laps. Hera, who finished first, was resting on the field. When Zephyr saw that she hadn't even broken a drop of sweat, he added another 200 laps for her and said: "From now on, your training volu will be doubled."
Even with Hera's stamina, she was a bit out of breath after running 400 laps with the gravity device. But in Zephyr's devilish training camp, this was only the beginning. Training wouldn't stop until the trainees' stamina was completely exhausted.
Zephyr looked at the panting, exhausted trainees and shouted loudly: "Are you tired? Good, you should be. Comfort is for the dead. Marineford only wants elites. Those without talent should just report to the branches. I won't accept sending a bunch of weaklings to Marineford."
The Marines, who were originally slumped on the ground in exhaustion, stood back up, showing their ttle to Instructor Zephyr.
Zephyr said: "Very good. Enemies on the battlefield won't let you off just because they see you've collapsed. In my training camp, no one is allowed to slump on the ground until it's break ti."
Next, 2000 push-ups each. Those who finish can end today's training. This is just an appetizer for the first day; the training will only get stricter later. If you can't take it, leave as soon as possible. Don't waste the Marine's resources."
By the ti Hera finished her 4000 push-ups, her stamina was basically gone. She could only lean against Kuina's body to catch her breath.
Kuina said: "So heavy! Hera, why did you suddenly beco so heavy?"
At this mont, Hera suddenly rembered the gravity device she was still wearing and adjusted the setting on the bracelet to the off state.
Seeing this, Zephyr said: "You can turn it off during break ti, but it must be on during the entire training period, including assembly ti. You need more exercise."
Hera nodded to show she understood.
Kuina noticed that Hera's clothes were still very clean without a single sweat stain. She asked enviously: "What's with your clothes? How are they not dirty at all?" She leaned in and took a sniff: "They even sll nice!" Kuina exclaid in surprise.
Hera felt ticklish from her sniffing. While dodging, she replied: "This is transford from my spirit dress, so of course it won't get dirty. Stop sniffing, it's ticklish!"
Hearing that Hera's clothes could actually change styles, Kuina's eyes lit up. She pulled Hera, wanting to head back to the dorm. She said: "Let see how many styles you can change into. I've thought for a long ti that what you wore before was too simple. You're such a pretty girl, how can you not prepare more styles?"
Hera had an ominous premonition. It was as if her Observation Haki had awakened, and she saw a future where she beca a dress-up doll in the dorm. She quickly said: "Don't be in such a hurry. Let's go eat first. Aren't you hungry after all that training?"
Kuina thought about it and gave up the idea of returning to the dorm imdiately, instead pulling Hera toward the cafeteria.
What was ant to co could not be avoided. Even if using a al delayed the return to the dorm, what could not be escaped eventually had to be faced. There would always be a ti when one was full.
After returning to the dorm, Kuina looked at Hera with an excited expression. Hera was powerless to resist and could only voice her final request weakly: "Let's agree first, the clothes you change into can't be too embarrassing."
Hearing this, Kuina said with a strange expression: "What are you talking about, you who wear lace garter stockings under your skirt?"
Hera quickly covered Kuina's mouth. She noticed that besides the two of them, Ain was watching them from the side, curled up on her bed, trying her best to reduce her presence.
Seeing that she had been noticed, Ain said: "Although the recruit training camp has double rooms, there are only three girls in this batch of recruits. Instructor Zephyr arranged for the three of us to be together."
Hera also understood that Zephyr likely saw that Ain was also a devil fruit user and arranged for them to be in the sa dorm so they could bond quickly. Moreover, this dorm was clearly converted from a four-person room, so there was enough space for the three of them. Instructor Zephyr had even thoughtfully arranged a private bath and toilet.
