Chapter 250

Lu En clenched his right fist tight.

Power gathered within his right fist.

"Iron Block · Steel Fist!"

The Iron Block of the Six Powers activated, compressing all his strength into the fist of his right arm.

And then,

this punch was like a volcano that had been building up for ages.

He hurled the punch out in a sudden, violent surge.

Like a volcano erupting!

Boom—

The ferocious force burst fully open from Lu En's fist, and the punch struck Gart's body on the spot.

Fortunately…

At the critical moment, Gart crossed both his arms in front of his chest to block. Otherwise, this punch would have landed square on his chest, and might even have punched clean through and shattered his breastbone.

As the surging force erupted, wave after wave rolled over Gart's arms, and the floor tiles beneath his feet began to crack and shatter in ever-growing fractures.

A terrifying shockwave spread from Gart's body, pressing his frame downward so that he sank into the floor tiles below.

Crack!

Crack!

Crisp, pleasing sounds rang out one after another.

Fissure after fissure spread across the floor tiles beneath Gart's feet, dense and countless, like a spiderweb — enough to make one's hair stand on end.

The cracks kept spreading,

extending into the distance.

Rumble, rumble, rumble!

The entire ground crumbled and collapsed, crushed by the tremendous force bearing down on Gart's body, so that his whole figure kept sinking downward.

From the collapsing floor tiles, countless shards of broken stone flew up into the air.

Debris flew in every direction,

wild and chaotic.

"W-what terrifying power!"

"This little brat…"

"What kind of monster is he, exactly?!"

"Just four years old, and he already wields such shocking combat strength?"

Beads of cold sweat the size of soybeans broke out across Gart's forehead, sliding slowly from his brow down both cheeks, and finally dropping from his chin onto the ground, soaking into the soil.

In an instant,

the force in Lu En's fist grew ever more terrifying and overwhelming.

By sheer brute force…

he battered Gart's arms until they were nearly twisted and broken.

A stabbing pain shot through both arms; Gart clenched his teeth, forcing himself to endure the searing agony within, though his face was already twisted in anguish.

Faintly,

Gart could even hear it.

The sound of bones cracking within his own arms.

"Damn it!"

"Block it for me, damn you!"

He ground his teeth and let out a furious roar.

But in the very next second.

The fist Lu En hurled forth erupted once more with a terrifying surge of force.

Boom—

Accompanied by an earth-shaking explosion.

Gart — a great pirate with a bounty as high as fifty million Berries — was sent flying on the spot by Lu En's punch, tumbling through the air in a sorry heap, his body flung more than a hundred meters away.

As he was sent flying, the terrifying shockwave from Lu En's punch caused the shockwaves to batter his internal organs, damaging them all.

Puh!

He opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of fresh blood; his body's aura also grew somewhat listless and disordered.

It was visible to the naked eye.

Gart's complexion showed signs of growing faint and pale.

In the end,

his body crashed heavily against the hard wall of a warehouse a hundred meters away.

Boom!

A deep, muffled crash.

It echoed in every direction,

reverberating and lingering within the vast warehouse.

Gart's back smashed the wall into broken, spiderwebbed cracks, and his whole body sank deeply into the wall, as if embedded within it.

Crack!

Crack!

The wall's surface was cracked and shattered.

Cracks spread rapidly from the point of Gatte's impact.

The number of cracks increased steadily.

A sunken perforation trapped Gatte's body firmly within.

Soon after.

Boom—!

The entire wall could not withstand this terrifying shockwave and ultimately collapsed with a thunderous roar.

The wall crumbled.

Countless stone fragments scattered and tumbled down as debris.

Like a collapsing mountainside…

Along with Gatte's body, he was buried deep beneath the pile of shattered rocks.

Moments later.

A small mound of rubble was born.

·· ·········Request flowers··· ····

Countless broken stones piled into a mountain, burying Gatte, the pirate with a bounty nearing fifty million Berries, beneath the ruins, never to be seen again.

For a moment,

Smoke and dust rose gently,

Dust rolled and swirled thickly.

The entire scene fell into deathly silence!

Not a sound!

Dozens of eyes, filled with shock, numbness, astonishment, and terror, simultaneously turned toward the rubble formed by the collapsed warehouse wall a hundred meters away.

Silence!

No one dared break the eerie stillness of this moment.

After a long pause,

The four officers of the Sword Lion Pirates—each a pirate with a bounty of no less than thirty million Berries—simultaneously made the same motion.

Gulp!

Their throats rolled as they involuntarily swallowed.

Their dazed, stunned gazes locked fixedly on the rubble that buried Gatte.

A powerful sense of shock completely dominated their entire being.

Fear!
