Chapter 314

"What a terrifying monster!"

"Who could have imagined…"

"A four-year-old brat, yet strong enough to reach this level!"

"Today, Master Zefa has truly brought our training camp an utterly horrifying anomaly!"

Smoker thought.

Huh!

He let out a heavy breath and quickly steadied his bitter mood.

He looked at Lu En, face full of solemnity, and said: "I lose with complete conviction. Your strength has earned my recognition. You are truly strong—extremely strong!"

"Among all the geniuses I've ever seen in my life…"

"You are the most terrifying prodigy—without exception!"

A person who, at only four years old, possesses the combat power to defeat him.

Tell me,

What kind of genius is this?

Even Smoker dared not imagine further.

At this moment,

The surrounding trainees gradually woke from their shock.

When they saw Smoker's disheveled figure…

They understood.

"L-Lost!"

"Smoker lost to that four-year-old monster!"

"And it only took one glance…"

"My god!"

"In one glance, Smoker was single-handedly instantly obliterated!"

"After losing his elementization, Smoker was utterly powerless in that boy's hands—slain in an instant."

"Is the power gap really this vast?"

"Unbelievable!"

A group of trainees wore expressions of utter shock.

They found Smoker's defeat hard to accept, to varying degrees.

After all,

Having fought Smoker many times before, they knew very well.

Even without using his Devil Fruit, Smoker was undoubtedly among the top in the training camp.

Yet,

They could not imagine…

Just as Smoker's fruit ability failed, he was instantly single-handedly obliterated by a four-year-old brat!

This power gap filled them all with inner horror.

"Is Smoker this weak without elementization?"

One trainee spoke weakly.

Instantly,

The other trainees all shook their heads in denial, face full of solemnity: "It's not that Smoker is weak—that's your illusion. In truth, it's only because Smoker's opponent is terrifying beyond measure."

"That's why it seems…"

"Smoker is weak."

"But this is merely an illusion."

"That four-year-old boy named Lu En possesses power far surpassing every single person in our entire training camp! He wields an extremely terrifying combat force!"

With these words spoken,

All trainees were deeply moved.

Dozens of eyes, filled with shock, reverence, and admiration, simultaneously fixed upon Lu En.

At this moment,

With Smoker's crushing defeat at Lu En's hands, Lu En naturally earned the recognition and respect of every member of the training camp.

No one dared oppose Lu En's entry into the training camp anymore.

Nor would anyone doubt…

Whether a four-year-old Lu En joining the camp would drag down the entire group?

The outcome was obvious.

Even Smoker was no match for Lu En.

What right did they have to doubt that such a monster would drag them down?

In comparison,

Rather,

It was far more likely that they themselves would be the ones dragging him down!

"I thought…"

"This battle would end in a swift knockout."

"But in truth, it was a knockout—just not as we imagined: it wasn't Smoker knocking out his opponent, but Smoker being knocked out by his opponent! Single-handedly obliterated by a four-year-old monster!"

"Incredible!"

"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I'd never have believed it in a million years. A four-year-old brat actually possesses such terrifying power!"

"What kind of monster is this?!"

"Smog, who could one-shot us, was one-shot by a four-year-old brat! Does that mean if we faced that brat, we'd be one-shot too?"

"…"

All trainees present lost their composure.

They stared blankly at Lu En, their profound awe nearly impossible to conceal.

Among them,

Including Tina!

Tina, the second-strongest trainee, her beautiful eyes flickered wildly, her lovely face covered in admiration and reverence.

She gazed at Lu En, a strange emotion surging in her heart.

"S-So strong!"

"This little brother…"

"He's only four years old!"

"Yet he's already grown this powerful!"

"This, is true genius!"

Tina's pink lips moved slightly as she murmured to herself.

She, who had always revered strength, could not help but feel an unprecedented, intense admiration for Lu En.

She had never imagined.

A child so young…

Could be this strong!

This shattered her understanding completely.

It collapsed her worldview!

At the same time,

She realized.

After today…

In the training camp, her strength would rank third!

Second would be Smog.

First would be the monster before her, only four years old!

A terrifying being named Lu En!
