Chapter 21

The events of this night were enough to leave him unable to calm his trembling heart for some time.

Watching Garp's retreating figure...

Lu En helplessly gazed at the mess left throughout the house.

"Lu En, you must never unleash that power again."

"The people here cannot withstand your rampage."

"Even I..."

"...only narrowly avoided being knocked unconscious by the Conqueror's Haki you unleashed."

Dadan could not help but speak up.

Recalling

the sensation of being engulfed by Conqueror's Haki just now, she felt a chill run down her spine.

If there were a next time,

she had no confidence

in being able to withstand the intimidation of such a terrifying aura.

In the end...

she was merely a small bandit leader.

Even the faintest Conqueror's Haki was beyond her ability to block.

"Rest assured, it will not happen again."

Lu En nodded in agreement.

"That is good."

"Leave the mess here for me to clean up."

"You should go back and rest."

"I imagine that you, having just awakened Conqueror's Haki, must be exhausted both physically and mentally. Now, you need to rest properly and avoid leaving any hidden injuries or lingering problems."

Dadan spoke with complete seriousness.

"Thank you."

Looking at Dadan's concerned face, Lu En felt that even her fierce features appeared unusually kind for a moment, warming his heart.

Although they were a bandit gang...

in reality,

every member of the Dadan family, including Dadan herself, was exceptionally friendly toward Garp's family.

Turning around,

Lu En returned to his room, lay on the wooden bed, and gazed out the window as his eyelids grew heavier and heavier.

Indeed, as Garp and Dadan had said...

after the surge of spiritual power within him erupted, a wave of exhaustion instantly flooded Lu En's entire body and mind, leaving him feeling extremely fatigued and his body unusually heavy.

"It seems my current physical constitution is still far too weak."

"Even though I am nearly ten times stronger than an average adult, I still cannot bear the heavy burden left on my body after unleashing Conqueror's Haki."

Lu En sighed helplessly.

He himself...

was still too weak!

Therefore,

tomorrow he must train twice as hard!

He must master Conqueror's Haki completely as soon as possible.

Then,

he would train the Marine Six Styles!

And master the remaining two types of Haki!

"System, display the status panel."

Before falling asleep, Lu En checked his current physical attributes once more.

[Host: Lu En]

[Strength: 7.5 (+0.8)]

[Speed: 6.8 (+0.7)]

[Stamina: 8 (+0.9)]

[Spiritual Power: 10 (+10)]

[Ghost Back Completion: 10.03%]

[Current Cultivation Effect Overall Increase: 100 times!]

With a delighted mood, Lu En quickly fell asleep.

Stepping out the main door,

Garp looked up at the sky and suddenly burst into loud, inexplicable laughter.

"Hahaha!"

His laughter rang out clearly,

drawing the attention of beasts in the dim jungle all around, none of which dared to approach.

Standing beside him, Pokato watched Garp's uncontrollable laughter and thought to himself.

It seems...

Vice Admiral Garp has a successor!

At this moment,

Garp's hearty laughter was not only because his grandson possessed extraordinary talent.

But also because...

He now had the capital to brag to his old friend Sengoku!

"Bring the Den Den Mushi..."

"I shall personally deliver this tremendous good news to that old man Sengoku and share the joy with him."

Garp said to Bokato.

Upon hearing this,

Bokato wore a strange expression, unable to help but think to himself.

Sharing the joy is a pretext...

The real reason is likely to show off to Fleet Admiral Sengoku!

Of course.

Bokato, naturally, dared not voice these words to his face.

He hesitated somewhat: "Vice Admiral Garp, is this not inappropriate? It is late at night; Fleet Admiral Sengoku should already be asleep. If we wake him now..."

"What nonsense! Hurry and bring the Den Den Mushi."

Garp rolled his eyes, dismissing the concern.

So what if he is asleep?

My grandson Lu En is so extraordinarily talented...

He awakened Conqueror's Haki at the mere age of three!

What's wrong with sharing this joy with my old friend Sengoku?

That old man Sengoku never cared whether I was free when he showed off to me in the past.

Now,

it is my turn!

That boy Lu En is excellent; he truly brings honor to me!
