"Picked one already? Good. Then this little wooden hammer will be lent to our adorable Tashigi for opening her Jar."
Seeing little Tashigi come over carrying the sea-blue Jar in both hands, Amon pinched her soft cheek, then handed her the small wooden hammer.
"Thank you, sir!"
The little girl hugged the Jar, ran over in a rush, took the hammer, and still did not forget to give Amon a proper little bow.
Amon laughed. "Hopefully the little hammer brings you some good luck."
"Alright, go ahead and open it."
He rubbed her small head again, then gestured for her to start.
"Okay!"
With a crack, the sea-blue Jar shattered on the spot, and three items dropped out from inside.
After taking the items, Amon did not forget to stroke her little head again as he praised her.
"Sir is very well-behaved too."
After being praised by Amon, Tashigi felt as sweet as if she had eaten honey.
Then she copied what Amon had done and tried to pat him in return. She had meant to pat his head, but she was too short. Even standing on tiptoe, she could not reach, so in the end she could only pat Amon's arm instead, as her way of saying that he was very good too.
Amon burst out laughing. "Yes, yes, yes. I am very well-behaved too."
"Now let me see what treasures you got."
With that, Amon focused on examining the three items.
[LV6 Swordsmanship Insights: After use, the user gains the knowledge and understanding of LV6 swordsmanship. Once the body's strength catches up, the user can automatically master LV6 swordsmanship.]
Amon drew in a sharp breath.
This little girl's luck was really good. Right from the start, she had drawn something outrageously strong.
LV6 Swordsmanship Insights. The meaning was simple. Once used, she would gain a full understanding of LV6 swordsmanship.
And once her strength reached the proper level, she would become a true LV6 swordsman.
By Amon's estimate, LV6 swordsmanship was probably just a bit weaker than Koushirou's.
But only a little.
It was already at the point of being infinitely close.
After all, when Amon had used his own LV7 swordsmanship against Koushirou before, he had only held a slight advantage. From that, he could roughly judge that Koushirou's swordsmanship was probably around LV6.5.
That said, what Tashigi had drawn was swordsmanship insight, not something that would instantly raise her strength on the spot.
Unlike Amon, she would not simply master it directly.
What she gained was understanding.
That meant she would still need to train hard herself. But with that insight already planted in her, all she needed was steady training. Until she reached LV6 swordsmanship, there would be no bottlenecks for her at all.
For a little girl like Tashigi, this was already a tremendous reward.
He put the swordsmanship book down and continued.
The second item was a katana.
[Cross Slash Blade: Shiro: An epic weapon from a certain online game. Exceptionally sharp and capable of cutting through anything. Comes with the skill Triple Slash, and after the third strike is completed, an explosion is triggered.
Triple Slash: The body rapidly dashes forward and unleashes three consecutive slashes. The damage of each slash stacks, and each hit is stronger than the last.
Triple Slash consumes a great deal of stamina. If the user lacks sufficient stamina, it cannot be activated.]
Another great draw by Tashigi!
Its only real flaw was the enormous stamina cost.
Given Tashigi's current state, she probably could not use it yet.
The skill felt a bit like the Op-Op Fruit in that sense, both requiring physical stamina to activate their special effects.
Even so, it was still an incredibly powerful item.
LV6 swordsmanship paired with a famous blade like this was no small matter. If Tashigi was allowed to grow, then given time, she would likely become another great swordsman.
With that thought in mind, Amon looked at the final item.
Another sword.
The moment he saw that the last item was also in the shape of a katana, Amon was startled again.
He immediately scanned its properties.
[Cross Slash Blade: Kiro: An epic weapon from a certain online game. Exceptionally sharp and able to slice through iron like mud. Within its range, the user's own strength is increased by 30%. In addition, enemies who enter the area have their speed reduced to a certain extent. Can be used once per day. Duration: ten minutes. Cooldown: twenty-four hours.]
Sure enough, it was another epic weapon.
Its only drawbacks were that it could enhance only the user's strength rather than everyone's, and the cooldown was quite long. It could only be used once a day.
Even so, that was still ridiculously strong.
Ten minutes was more than enough to change the flow of a battle.
And that was only the weapon's attached ability.
One had to remember that both of these blades were themselves already terrifyingly sharp, capable of slicing through iron like mud.
Compared to the two swords Tashigi currently carried, these were stronger by who knew how many times.
For a hundred thousand Berries to pull rewards like this, she had made an absolute killing.
