Chapter 112

Walking into the tavern interior,

Seeing the countless shattered facilities inside…

His mood grew increasingly shaken.

Debris scattered everywhere,

And countless wood shavings,

Shattered glass fragments, and more.

The entire tavern looked as if it had been abandoned for dozens or even hundreds of years!

Reduced to an abandoned ruin no one cared about.

"Colonel Gersen, go take a look at the pirates left here."

"Their condition…"

"Is extremely strange!"

The middle-aged naval officer whispered a warning.

"Strange condition?"

"What do you mean?"

Gersen asked.

"It's hard to explain in a moment. Just go and see for yourself."

"These pirates are clearly not dead—they still have strong vital signs…"

"But strangely, each and every one of them lies deeply unconscious inside the tavern. No matter how much we call out, we cannot wake them from their coma."

"And it's not just one or two people like this."

"It's…"

"Nearly a hundred pirates inside the tavern—all without exception—have fallen into this strange state of deep sleep."

The middle-aged naval officer took a deep breath, his face tinged with horror.

After hearing the middle-aged naval officer's account,

Gersen, with a solemn and heavy heart, made his way to the place where the hundred-plus pirates were detained.

As expected!

Instantly,

He saw the pirates' strange condition.

Not dead,

And possessing strong vital signs.

But they simply could not wake up.

It was as if…

These pirates' spiritual consciousness had been utterly shattered beyond recognition, requiring time to recover before they could awaken from deep slumber.

"This… this is…"

Upon arriving at the scene, Gersen immediately realized the horrifying truth.

"Over a hundred pirates, all trapped in this strange state of deep sleep."

"It felt as if, in a single instant, this entire group of pirates had been collectively wiped out!"

"Yet strangely, none of them had any external injuries."

The deeper he observed,

The more Gersen sensed the strangeness and terror of the situation.

Every inch of their bodies…

Unharmed!

These pirates showed no damage whatsoever, yet all were mysteriously trapped in deep sleep, impossible to awaken easily.

Even Gersen, a Colonel of the Navy Headquarters, was deeply frightened by this sight.

"This must be the work of that person!"

"But what kind of strange method did he use…"

"To instantly kill every single pirate in the room, yet leave not a single scratch on any of them?"

"What kind of technique is this?"

Gersen could not fathom it.

Gradually,

As his thoughts deepened, he faintly perceived some clues.

A terrifying suspicion surfaced in his mind.

"Wait, wait, wait…"

"No way?"

"It can't possibly be what I'm thinking, right?!"

"This!"

Gersen suddenly narrowed his pupils, his face turning pale.

His gaze shifted,

His eyes filled with horror as he stared at the unconscious pirates, his throat dry, his lips trembling slightly, involuntarily blurting out:

"This… this must be the legendary…"

"Conqueror's Haki?!"

"The so-called potential of a king, possessed by only one in a million?!"

This astonishing guess left Gersen utterly shocked.

He very much wanted to deny it.

But this guess was the closest to the truth!

"Doesn't this mean…"

"Mr. Lu En, at only four years old, has already mastered the legendary Conqueror's Haki?!"

"How could this be possible?!"

After a long pause,

Gersen said in a trembling voice.

"Mr. Lu En, he…"

"Is simply a monster!"
