Chapter 339

"You didn't tell me…"

"You've already mastered Armament Haki!"

Smoker brushed off the dirt on his body, gazing at Lu En with a look of bitter resentment.

Earlier, he

had actually dared to doubt a monster?

He was clearly tired of living!

"But…"

"Didn't you ask me either?"

Lu En smiled.

He hadn't lied.

Throughout the entire encounter, he had indeed not used Sea-Stone weapons.

But what Smoker didn't know was…

He had already mastered Armament Haki!

Upon hearing this,

Smoker's heart was filled not only with shock, but also with deep frustration and helplessness.

Facing a monster like Lu En, even he—the former top trainee of the academy—could not summon a single thought of challenging the other.

At this moment,

all around,

utter silence!

Not a sound!

Dozens of eyes, filled with shock and stupor, simultaneously locked onto Lu En, then shifted to the battered, disheveled Smoker.

Everyone was frozen in terror.

After a long while,

the eerie atmosphere was shattered.

"What the—hell?!"

"What did I just see?!"

"Are you serious?!"

"Smoker was actually one-shot by that monster Lu En?!"

"Is this real? Are we sure this isn't a dream?"

"Where's his elementization? The unbeatable elementization? What the hell was Smoker doing? Why didn't he use elementization to dodge Lu En's attack?"

"Having a Logia fruit tied to Smoker is an insult. That Logia fruit would be better off with me—I wouldn't lose so disgracefully."

"Smoker, with his unbeatable elementization, still lost badly?! Can someone explain what the hell just happened?!"

A group of trainees stood frozen, mouths agape.

They were dumbfounded.

Where was the claim that elementization was unbeatable?

Why did Smoker still lose?

And he was one-shot!

"Throughout it all, I didn't see that monster Lu En use any Sea-Stone weapons."

"So here's the question."

"How did Smoker, with his elementization, lose so badly to Lu En? He clearly didn't use Sea-Stone to counter the Devil Fruit ability."

"Unbelievable!"

"That monster Lu En one-shot Smoker without even using Sea-Stone?!"

"My god!"

"Absolutely terrifying!"

A group of trainees, throats dry, stared at Lu En with expressions of horror.

At that moment,

a trembling voice rose from the crowd: "If I'm not mistaken, the black armor covering that monster Lu En's hands just now was Haki—Armament Haki!"

"It's a power entirely superior to Six Powers!"

"There's a rumor across this sea."

"Only those who master Haki can truly be called strong on the sea."

"Before mastering Haki, one is merely a weak基层 fighter of the sea."

"Among them,"

"Haki is divided into three types: Observation Haki, Armament Haki, and Conqueror's Haki. What we just witnessed was one of them—Armament Haki!"

"It is said that those who master Armament Haki need not fear Logia users, because the elementization of Logia users will fail before the power of Conqueror's Haki."

"It's like Sea-Stone!"

"It can nullify elementization and strike the true physical body of a Logia user!"

As these words fell,

the entire crowd erupted.

The group of trainees suddenly snapped out of their stupor.

They finally understood.

Why did Smoker, who possessed elementalization, still suffer a crushing defeat at Lu En's hands?

All because,

what Lu En just unleashed was none other than the legendary Armament Haki!

What Lu En had just displayed was actually the legendary Armament Haki!

"Lu En is a monster—just a few hours ago, he still needed Sea-Stone weapons to subdue Smoker. How is it possible that in barely a few hours, this monster has mastered Armament Haki?"

"Lu En, this monster—just a few hours ago he clearly still needed the aid of a Seastone weapon to take down Smoker. But why, in just a few short hours, has this monster already mastered Armament Haki?"

"What kind of freak is this?!"

A group of trainees stared in shock.

They gazed dumbly at Lu En, then continued in voices trembling with fear.

"In just a few hours, are you telling me he mastered the legendary Haki with nothing but that short time?!"

"In just a few short hours, are you trying to tell me that he managed to master the legendary Haki in that little time?!"

"That's the terrifying power superior to Six Powers—the power said to be controllable only by true masters of this sea!"

"Lu En is only four years old. He's mastered Haki? And in just a few hours? Do you believe this?"

"Lu En, this monster, is only four years old, and yet he's already mastered Haki? And it only took him a few short hours? Would you dare believe that?"

·· ·········求鲜花··· ····

At this moment,

every single trainee present was utterly shaken to their core.

One trainee said: "I heard that to master two-color Haki, one must not only possess sufficient physical strength, but also refine the Six Powers to a certain level, laying a solid foundation for the body."

A student said: "I've heard that to master both types of Haki, not only do you need a sufficiently powerful physical constitution, you also need to train the Six Powers to a certain level, laying down a solid foundation for the body."

"Even for someone with the most outstanding talent, once all the prerequisites are met, mastering two-color Haki still requires years of grueling practice."

"Given that all the cultivation thresholds are met, to completely master both types of Haki, even someone with the most outstanding talent and aptitude would still need to spend several years tempering themselves."

the group of trainees involuntarily swallowed hard.

A group of students couldn't help but swallow hard.

They stared at the four-year-old Lu En with looks of awe, horror, and utter disbelief.

"It has never been heard of."

"Anyone mastering two-color Haki in just a few hours!"

"Lu En, this monster, has set a brand-new record!"

"Unprecedented in history!"

"Never before, never again!"

"An unparalleled feat!"
