Chapter 420

"I never expected this…"

"The Navy has actually birthed a monster this terrifying!"

"A prodigy merely five years old, possessing combat power equal to that of a Navy Vice Admiral. Even across this entire sea, such an example is surely unprecedented."

After hearing the news from her son, Xia Luote Linlin expressed astonishment after astonishment.

Looking back across the past several hundred years of the sea…

There has never been such a monster before!

A five-year-old with Vice Admiral-level power!

Even she, in her youth, was never this terrifying.

She only revealed her extraordinary combat power at seven or eight.

But compared to Lu En, who at merely five years old already possessed Vice Admiral-level power, she was naturally far inferior.

"Mom, the Navy has produced an extraordinary being."

"In the future…"

"The territories we rule may face tremendous setbacks and turmoil."

One of her sons spoke up weakly.

"It doesn't matter."

"I'm actually looking forward to it…"

"That little brat named Fist Demon Lu En, may grow even faster."

Xia Luote Linlin grinned.

She looked at the photograph of Lu En on the dossier.

A demonic back,

His grotesque upper-body muscle lines nearly perfect…

Xia Luote Linlin's eyes flashed, her gaze full of anticipation.

In this New World sea,

An unprecedentedly terrifying powerhouse in history is about to emerge!

A little brat merely five years old,

Now,

Is striving to chase after monsters like us from the old era!

Faintly,

Even Xia Luote Linlin, one of the topmost monsters in the New World, felt a faint but palpable pressure emanating from this five-year-old brat, Lu En.

"It seems I can't slack off either."

"A monster of this caliber will catch up to our pace in just a few years."

"In the future…"

"The Navy will face an extremely terrifying and troublesome opponent!"

"The most terrifying part is, he may not even reach ten years old!"

Xia Luote Linlin said.

With those words spoken.

All members of the Xia Luote family present involuntarily drew in a sharp breath.

For the first time,

They heard their mother, Xia Luote Linlin—who they regarded as invincible—give such an extraordinarily high evaluation of someone!

"A little brat merely five years old…"

"Even Mom has come to take him this seriously?"

"What a terrifying monster!"

"At five years old, he's already seen as an enemy by Mom."

"Truly unprecedented!"

Members of the Xia Luote family were utterly stunned.

…

New World.

Lei De Force.

This was the name of the Lei De-Haired Pirates' ship.

At this moment,

On the deck of the Lei De Force,

Lei De-Haired Shanks, Vice Captain Ben Beike Man, and elite members such as Ye Su Bu and Luo Qi Lu had all gathered here.

The topic of their conversation…

Naturally revolved around the five-year-old Lu En!

"Boss, the Navy has produced an extraordinary being!"

Ye Su Bu sighed.

"A five-year-old with Vice Admiral-level power, capturing Whitebeard the Second alone! Such a monster is unimaginable—how could one appear in this sea?"

Ben Beike Man chimed in.

Clearly,

They had all already heard.

The incident in which Bai Huzi II was defeated and captured alone by a five-year-old navy brat.

In response,

all of them displayed expressions of shock and awe.

"Ghost Back Lu En…"

"The monster known as the Fist Demon!"

"Captain Kapu's grandson!"

"This is truly a terrifying prodigy."

Lei De Hair marveled repeatedly.

On this day,

he remembered Lu En.

But…

the Lei De Hair Pirates clearly would not dwell overly on such matters.

Their immediate priority now was to seize the throne of the Four Emperors!

There was no time to waste.

They had no spare moments to concern themselves with events unfolding beyond their own ranks.

The position of Emperor…

the Lei De Hair Pirates were determined to claim it!

"But, before seizing the Emperor's throne,"

"there are some matters that must be dealt with swiftly."

"Therefore…"

"Next, we must find a suitable opportunity to visit the East Blue, the homeland of Captain Luo Jie."

"We must accomplish that task without drawing the navy's attention!"

"Bet everything on this brand-new era!"

Lei De Hair's eyes flashed; he instinctively raised his right hand and pressed down on his seemingly ordinary straw hat, already having devised a detailed plan.

This era today…

still lacks a spark of hope!

If so,

then he would create that hope with his own hands!

…

Meanwhile.
