Chapter 405

And a vast flood of memories about aura surged into his mind like a tide…

Moments later,

the system completed its transformation successfully,

allowing Lu En's strength to experience another slight increase.

At the same time,

his heavy injuries also eased slightly.

But they could not restore him fully at once.

It must be…

that his injuries this time were simply too severe.

Not long after,

the unconscious Whitebeard was dragged onto the deck by a group of cadets.

And,

under Master Zefa's orders, they wrapped his body in the toughest iron chains.

Only after completing all this did the cadets finally breathe a sigh of relief.

One could only say.

Whitebeard had exerted an overwhelming pressure on them.

Lu En's fierce battle with Whitebeard still haunted them deeply.

It was only natural for them to be extremely cautious against a top-tier powerhouse like this.

Given Whitebeard's current state of grievous, full-body wounds, coupled with the special iron chains binding him, it was certain that even if he awoke from his coma, he would struggle to break free.

In short,

Whitebeard had been captured alive!

It could now be officially announced…

Whitebeard the Second, Whitebeard, was apprehended by the Marines today!

"Lu En, kid, you alright?"

Master Zefa walked over to Lu En, gazing at the boy lying on the deck, his expression filled with emotion.

"Master Zefa, do I look like I'm fine?"

Lu En grinned.

"You're too reckless."

"You knew your opponent was this strong, yet you stubbornly charged in alone to challenge him."

"This time, you did win."

"But next time?"

"Next time, don't be so reckless."

Master Zefa spoke with deep earnestness.

"Understood."

Lu En nodded.

Next time?

If he encountered a powerhouse like this again…

he would naturally still charge forward and clash with him in a great battle!

After all,

his body inherently carried an extremely potent violent nature.

"Whitebeard the Second probably never dreamed he'd be defeated by a five-year-old brat like you."

"Truly, life is unpredictable…"

"Even I couldn't have foreseen it."

"You've grown this strong already!"

Even if Master Zefa had fought him personally, capturing a pirate of Whitebeard's caliber would have taken no less than half an hour.

Think about that.

How strong was Whitebeard!

Yet such a mighty pirate was defeated by a five-year-old Lu En.

Naturally, this left Master Zefa stunned.

"You're a terrifying monster, kid!"

"At five years old you're already this strong—if you grow two more years, even I won't be your match."

Master Zefa stared at Lu En.

A five-year-old who single-handedly crushed a pirate with billions in combat power!

Tell me,

who would believe it?!

If this got out…

it could overturn the entire sea!

Make the entire Marine Headquarters explode!

"By the way."

Suddenly, Master Zefa recalled something.

A few days ago,

when he was preparing to leave Marineford with Lu En, those words he spoke to Lu En on the road.

The words Lu En had spoken back then still burned deeply in Master Zefa's mind.

For a long while,

Master Zefa looked at Lu En with a complex expression: "As you said before. I truly held a massive misconception about your strength!"

"You're right."

"From the very beginning, I never understood your true strength."

A Vice Admiral with the power of a five-year-old?

Had I not seen it with my own eyes today…

Master Zefa could never have believed such a terrifying phenomenon, one that nearly overturned all understanding.

But now,

he believed.

There truly existed monsters on this earth who utterly defied common sense!

The Lu En before him,

was one of them!

No!

More accurately…

This brat, Lu En, is the only example in this ocean in centuries!

Without exception!
