Chapter 298: Sensation! The Culprit Is a Four-Year-Old Brat? 【3/10 Request Self-Subscription】

By the time He followed Kong's orders and led twenty elite marines to the scene, the three marine dormitory buildings were already surrounded by numerous marines.

Seeing this,

He sighed helplessly.

She knew this matter could not be hidden today.

It was only because…

That Lu En had gone too far!

No.

More accurately,

it was Master Zefa's old bastard incompetence.

He knew Lu En was a monster, yet stubbornly refused to believe it and insisted on testing it!

Now look what happened.

It caused a massive scandal!

Entirely wiped out tens of thousands of marine soldiers!

Next,

the entire Marine Headquarters would surely face a fierce storm of debate.

"Everyone, disperse. Disperse."

"There's nothing to see."

As soon as He arrived at the scene, she immediately dispersed the surrounding crowd.

Pressed by He's authority, the group of whispering marines dared not speak and quickly left the scene with reverence.

Yet,

after they left, they still launched wave after wave of heated discussions about the astonishing scene they had witnessed in the three dormitory buildings.

For a moment,

the vast Marineford seemed ready to be overturned entirely by this incident.

"Check for any seriously injured personnel."

Seeing the marines retreat, He ordered her subordinates.

"Yes, General He."

The twenty elite marines stepped into the three dormitory buildings with confused expressions.

And then,

the scene they witnessed utterly shattered their understanding.

Left them utterly bewildered.

"What the—fuck?"

"What's going on here?"

"What happened to these people? Why are they all lying unconscious on the ground?"

"Good heavens…"

"Are you kidding? The entire dormitory is filled with unconscious marines!"

"What did they encounter? How could this happen?"

One marine after another stood frozen, mouths agape.

Seeing the sea of unconscious marines scattered across the floor, they were completely stunned.

They investigated layer upon layer…

The more they saw, the more their hearts pounded with dread.

A chill shot from their soles straight to the crown of their heads, making their entire bodies bristle with fear.

Hair stood on end,

cold sweat broke out.

Every floor's marines were mysteriously unconscious.

As if they'd been poisoned!

But that still couldn't explain…

Why had all the marines in all three dormitory buildings been poisoned?!

This clearly made no scientific sense.

"General He, what exactly happened here?"

Finally, one marine couldn't help but ask.

All other marines turned their gazes toward him.

"You are elite marines, and the subordinates I've trusted most over the years."

"You've served with me for a long time—you should know this sea holds countless supreme experts."

"These supreme experts are not powerful because they were born inherently superior."

"They wield a powerful force called Domineering Qi!"

"They wield a formidable power called Haki!"

He gazed at the chaotic ruins before her with a complex expression.

She sighed inwardly.

Marshal Kong really had high expectations of her…

To leave her to clean up such a mess.

"Dom… Dominant Haki…"

The twenty elite marines following He stared blankly, muttering to themselves.

"Today, the reason tens of thousands of marines here collapsed unconscious is because they were struck by a power called Conqueror's Haki."

"Conqueror's Haki is one branch of Haki, and also the most terrifying one!"

"Only someone with the potential of a king, said to appear once in a million, can possess it!"

"Only true monsters of this sea can control this power—such as Admiral Kizaru, and Captain Kapu."

As He explained, every marine present wore expressions of shock.

"Conqueror's Haki?!"

For this name, as He's trusted subordinates, they had naturally heard whispers of it before.

But they never imagined…

In the Marine Headquarters of Marineford, they had actually witnessed the horrific aftermath of a group struck by this terrifying power called Conqueror's Haki.

"So that means—"

"Tens of thousands of people here were all knocked unconscious by Conqueror's Haki?"

"Good grief…"

"Just how terrifying is this Conqueror's Haki?!"

The twenty marines were deeply moved, faces filled with astonishment.

"Come on, let's check for any seriously injured personnel."

He waved his hand.

"Yes."

Under He's leadership, the twenty elite marines began spreading out to inspect each floor, checking whether any marines had suffered serious injuries.

Seeing the wreckage left behind…

Witnessing the scene of tens of thousands of marines lying unconscious…

He couldn't help but sigh: "That little brat Lu En is truly terrifying!"

"Recall back then, when Golden Lion Shiki attacked Marineford, the total number of casualties he caused was surely far fewer than the number of marines knocked unconscious today by this monster Luo En's Conqueror's Haki."

"Back then, that Gold Lion fellow only damaged a few buildings in Marineford. In fact, the number of injured didn't even reach three digits."

"But today—"

"This four-year-old monster, Lu En…"

"Has accomplished with his own strength what even the great pirate Gold Lion could not."

"He wiped out tens of thousands of marines in a single instant!"

"He annihilated every marine in three dormitory buildings!"

"This is the most severe damage the Marines have suffered in the past decade."

"Who could have imagined all this was done by a four-year-old brat?"

The more He thought, the more astonished she became.

When Gold Lion attacked Marineford, she had been an observer—though she did not participate, she had witnessed the entire battle from start to finish.

Precisely because of that,

Comparing the scene of tens of thousands of marines wiped out today, she could not help but sigh.

That boy Lu En…

Had achieved an astonishing feat even Gold Lion could not accomplish!

Half an hour later.

The twenty marines returned before He.

They quickly reported their findings in turn.

"Vice Admiral He, I found no seriously injured personnel on my floor."

"Same here."

"I found one unlucky guy who fell off the balcony. But luckily, it was only from the second floor—he didn't suffer serious injury."

"I found two with minor injuries."

"I have one with a head wound from hitting a hard object—slightly serious."

"…"

After hearing the reports from her subordinates, He quietly exhaled in relief.

Good.

This accident caused no deaths.

Otherwise, things would have been far more troublesome.

Today's chaos had left He trembling with anxiety throughout.

"Next, send the seriously injured for treatment."

"As for the rest—"

"I'll assign personnel to handle them."

After a moment's thought, He said plainly.

"Yes, Vice Admiral He."

The twenty marines prepared to carry out He's orders.

Just before they left,

One marine timidly asked: "Vice Admiral He, do you know who unleashed this astonishing Conqueror's Haki today?"

"Our Navy Headquarters…"

"The only ones with Conqueror's Haki seem to be Admiral Kizaru and Captain Kapu, right?"

"But given the status of these two, it's clearly impossible for them to suddenly appear here and unleash Conqueror's Haki."

The other marines were equally puzzled and curious about this matter.

They speculated.

Within Navy Headquarters…
