Chapter 445

Boom!

Smoker's body slammed heavily onto the ground, tumbling several full rotations, scraping across the earth the whole way, his clothes torn to shreds by the friction, before he finally came to a slow stop.

"That guy…"

A violent fit of coughing; Smoker nearly coughed his lungs out.

He stared at Lu En with a helpless expression, looking somewhat indignant.

Couldn't you have been a little gentler?

Did it have to be this violent?

He didn't die at the hands of that guy Mo Lisen…

Yet nearly died at the hands of this monster, Lu En.

"However…"

"Since this monster Lu En has already made his move."

"It also means."

"Today's graduation trial should be considered over at this point."

Smoker shook his head and let out a somewhat weary sigh.

As for what fate would befall Mo Lisen?

He didn't need to consider that point.

Only because…

From the very moment Lu En chose to act.

Smoker had already seen the final outcome.

"Soru!"

Having rescued Smoker, Lu En cast a deep glance at Mo Lisen beside him, then unleashed Soru once more among the Six Powers, causing his body to vanish from the spot on the spot.

The instant Lu En disappeared,

The sky-covering mud slammed down violently in one furious deluge.

Splash splash splash!

Like ocean currents stirring up a pleasant sound, the mud thudded heavily onto the swamp below, sending up countless sprays of mud that scattered wildly in all directions.

After a long while,

The upheaval gradually subsided.

Mo Lisen's brows knit tightly; he stared with a look of startled suspicion at the tiny figure of a mere five-year-old standing dozens of meters away, his gaze somewhat strange.

Clearly,

He hadn't expected.

That in that brief instant just now, that little smoking brat would actually be rescued away by someone!

Right beneath his very nose…

Rescued away!

And throughout the entire process, he had been completely unable to react.

The opponent's speed was far too fast!

Of course,

Within this, there was also the reason that Mo Lisen had been entirely without any mental guard the whole time.

At least,

Mo Lisen was more inclined toward the latter.

It must have been that he had let his guard down.

That he had failed to notice that the smoking brat had been rescued away just now.

"Rescued away, huh?"

"Consider yourself lucky."

"However…"

"We agreed on a one-on-one, and now an outsider has suddenly intervened — doesn't that not quite follow the rules?"

"You Marines, don't you all keep your word?"

Mo Lisen swept a cold glance at the rescued Smoker, then turned his dark, brooding gaze toward Lu En.

At this moment.

Lu En stood outside the swamp, silently meeting Mo Lisen's gaze.

Then,

He spoke: "Originally, this battle had nothing to do with me. But why did you people insist on butting into this fight?"

"The Swamp Haizeituan Society? Originally, our target wasn't you."

"So why did you insist on wading into these muddy waters?"

"As an irresistible external force, your existence has seriously affected this graduation trial, driving the trial's difficulty straight up."

"This really makes things very hard for me!"

As an external force, the Swamp Haizeituan Society should never have been a target that Smoker and the others needed to deal with.

It's just that…

No one had expected.

That this Haizeituan Society would suddenly appear here.

(cjdf) "Kid, who are you?"

"Could it be…"

"You're going to stand up for that smoking brat? Just because of you?"

Mo Lisen stared coldly at Lu En, not daring to underestimate him or let down his guard.

The scene of Lu En rescuing Smoker just now — he had seen it all with his own eyes.

Therefore,

he naturally did not dare to look down on Lu En.

Even if…

this was merely a five-year-old boy.

With Lu En stepping into the battlefield,

from all directions, every gaze gathered over one after another.

Among them,

was Cerberus Kulin, the captain of the Cerberus Pirates.

The moment he saw Lu En make his move, Kulin's expression shifted slightly, yet he did not actively speak up to warn Mo Lisen.

On the other side,

the group of trainees led by Tina, upon seeing Smoker escape from danger and seeing Lu En step into the battlefield, were finally able to heave a long, heavy sigh of relief.

In their view,

with Lu En making his move, victory was basically already in the bag!

There was no room for any accident!

"It's in the bag!"

"Lu En, this monster, is as reliable as ever!"

"At the critical moment…"

"you still have to count on this monster Lu En!"

A group of trainees thought silently to themselves.

Colonel Te Lu, who was farther away, and the group of Marine elites beside him, all watched the slightest stir of the battlefield with tense faces.

"That existence, only five years old, has made his move."

"Colonel, do you think he can win?"

"His opponent is the Logia user Mo Lisen! A great pirate with a bounty of over a hundred million Berries!"

"Can an existence only five years old really defeat a great pirate like that?"

A group of Marines were deeply doubtful and worried.

"Wait and see."
