Chapter 452

For a moment,

Morison's entire body turned to mud, activating elementization, detaching from the sunken mountain.

Soon after,

he landed again, his form reconstituting from mud into his original appearance.

But the heavy punch coated in Armament Haki had inflicted a truly devastating wound upon his body, leaving him utterly unable to recover or heal for the time being.

Moreover,

his condition remained extremely poor!

Meanwhile,

as Morison was struck by a heavy punch and blasted flying…

this scene instantly ignited a wave of shock throughout everyone present.

"This!"

"Is this real?"

"The pirate with a bounty of over a hundred million Berries was knocked flying by a five-year-old brat with a single punch?"

"That kid's strength can't possibly be this terrifying!"

Cerberus Kulin, captain of the Three-Headed Dog Pirates, trembled uncontrollably.

Seeing Morison crushed by a single punch, he realized at once:

That five-year-old brat was a terrifying existence far beyond his imagination!

Even a pirate with a hundred million Berries in bounty…

a Logia Devil Fruit user—could not withstand a single punch from that child!

Think about it.

Just how strong was that child?

"To deal with our Three-Headed Dog Pirates, did the Navy really need to go to such lengths? They even sent out a monster like this!"

"This is leaving us no chance to live!"

"What have we done to deserve…"

"For the Navy to send a monster like this against us?"

Kulin wanted to cry but had no tears.

020 The Navy really doesn't do anything right!

They sent a monster this terrifying!

They really think highly of our Three-Headed Dog Pirates!

On the other side,

Colonel Te Lu and the group of elite Navy officers stood frozen, mouths agape, eyes bulging wide, staring blankly at Lu En and Morison.

"W-what the hell?"

"So strong!"

"He knocked out Morison, the Logia user, with just one punch!"

"Aren't Logia users supposed to be immune to all attacks? Then why did that five-year-old boy knock Morison nearly to death with a single punch?"

"A five-year-old boy possesses such terrifying combat power."

"Incredible!"

Every Navy officer was shaken to their core.

Colonel Te Lu exhaled heavily, his voice filled with awe: "The claim that Logia users are immune to all attacks applies only to the weak."

"For the strong…"

"Logia elementization offers no advantage whatsoever!"

"Because they wield the most extreme and terrifying power of the sea—Haki."

"Armament Haki specifically counters Logia elementization—it nullifies it!"

"That's precisely why Morison, the Logia user, was nearly killed by a single punch from that five-year-old!"

With that said,

the Navy officers were even more stunned.

"Armament Haki…"

"He's only five years old—and already this strong?"

"How can we face ourselves after this?"

"Compared to him, our entire lives have been wasted."

"Just who is this person? He's absurdly strong!"

"A monster like this shouldn't be unknown in the Marine Headquarters!"

Voices buzzed everywhere.

At that moment,

hearing the murmurs from his subordinates, Colonel Te Lu suddenly narrowed his pupils slightly.

He looked at Lu En's back with a look of stunned suspicion—a shocking suspicion rose in his mind.

"N-no way!"

"Could it be…"

"Is this person…?"
