Chapter 322

"In the coming period..."

"This kid will probably be crushed badly."

"This isn't bad—it'll at least temper his composure and strengthen his willpower."

"A prodigy as young as four is far too prone to arrogance."

"He needs to settle down properly."

"This period of training Observation Haki is precisely when he should be cultivating inner stillness."

Master Zefa thought.

Next,

He no longer urged him further.

He lifted the branch in his hand and slowly swung it again toward Lu En's back.

Deliberately controlling the rhythm...

Not too fast,

nor too slow.

If it were too fast...

The difficulty would be too high for Lu En!

How could you expect such a four-year-old boy who hasn't even mastered Observation Haki to handle more?

So.

Each of Master Zefa's attacks followed a controlled trajectory.

Just as he thought,

this time the branch would strike Lu En again.

Something strange happened...

Lu En dodged.

His body tilted slightly,

and the branch in Master Zefa's hand brushed past Lu En's side without touching him.

A missed strike.

Evaded effortlessly by Lu En.

"I saw it!"

As he dodged Master Zefa's strike, Lu En's Observation Haki precisely caught the fleeting flicker of surprise on the man's face.

Master Zefa's attack had been clearly seen by Lu En!

Seen with perfect clarity!

Precisely because he saw it so clearly, he could dodge this strike even with his eyes closed...

"Hm?"

"Coincidence?"

"This kid..."

Master Zefa stared at Lu En, stunned and bewildered.

He instinctively assumed it was luck.

So,

he slowly raised his right arm and swung the branch again, this time toward another direction of Lu En.

This time, the speed was slightly faster than before.

Yet,

Lu En still dodged.

The second attack was again effortlessly avoided by Lu En.

At this moment,

Master Zefa was startled.

Without hesitation...

He swung the branch downward.

The third attack aimed squarely at Lu En.

But just before the branch would have struck Lu En's body, he tilted his head slightly—the branch passed by his ear without touching a single hair.

Next...

Master Zefa seemed to refuse to believe it.

Fourth time!

Fifth time!

Sixth time!

He attacked a full ten times!

Each time, Lu En dodged flawlessly.

At this moment,

Master Zefa retracted his branch and stared at Lu En, whose eyes were lightly closed, utterly astonished.

He was completely dumbfounded.

只见，

He stared with wide, bulging eyes, his face filled with profound shock and disbelief.

"What's going on?!"

"Could it be…?"

"You—you've already mastered Observation Haki?!"

Aside from this, he could not imagine any other possibility.

Ten consecutive attacks,

all evaded by the opponent with his eyes closed.

Coincidence?

How could this possibly be a coincidence?!

Coincidence could never occur this many times!

Therefore,

Master Zefa's mind reeled with dread.

This, certainly, was no coincidence.

It was…

Inevitable!

There was no other possibility except that the opponent had truly mastered Observation Haki!

Yet…

This truth was something Master Zefa could not accept.

He was stunned speechless.

How much time had even passed?!

This kid…

In less than half an hour, had actually succeeded in mastering Observation Haki?!

"How is that possible?!"

Master Zefa was deeply moved and utterly uncomposed.

He could not believe it.

Could there truly be such a monster in this world?!

In less than half an hour…

He had even mastered Observation Haki!

Thinking of this, Master Zefa was utterly bewildered.
