Chapter 641

"Congratulations…"

"Starting today, you are the second Warlord of the Sea."

Lu En smiled in satisfaction.

Good!

Not wasted my warning.

If Crocodile refused, he would have mercilessly crippled and captured him.

Phew!

Seeing Lu En's expression change, Crocodile secretly exhaled a breath of relief.

He had truly feared…

One wrong choice, and he would be shot dead on the spot by Lu En.

Fortunately.

This time, he clearly made the right choice.

"Glad I didn't refuse."

"Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable."

"That monster, Fist Demon Lu En—I have no doubt he would've killed me on the spot if I refused."

Crocodile thought with lingering dread.

After a long pause,

he suppressed the turbulent emotions within him and asked curiously, "The second Warlord of the Sea? I'm curious—who was the first?"

"Donquixote Doflamingo."

Lu En said plainly.

"Doflamingo…"

"What a vile bastard!"

Crocodile's eyes narrowed.

Of course, he had heard of Doflamingo's name thunderously.

Once,

he had dealings with the man; though their contact was minimal, he knew well that Doflamingo's power was terrifying—even surpassing his own!

"You didn't use the same method you just used on me to invite that guy, did you?"

Crocodile's expression turned strange.

"What? A problem?"

"Isn't my method the simplest and most direct?"

Lu En smiled faintly.

"Uh…"

Crocodile opened his mouth but fell silent.

0......... 0

He thought about it.

Given Fist Demon Lu En's immense combat power, using this method to invite others to join the Warlords was indeed the simplest and most direct approach.

If he hadn't been utterly broken by force…

Crocodile might not have agreed to join the Warlords so readily.

Upon closer thought,

Lu En's method was indeed crude and brutal!

And the fastest to produce results!

"It seems Doflamingo, that vile bastard, also fought Fist Demon Lu En."

"I wonder how it ended?"

"Given Doflamingo's strength, even Fist Demon Lu En must have struggled, right?"

Crocodile thought inwardly.

But seeing Crocodile's expression shift, Lu En slightly narrowed his eyes and added with a smile: "You want to know how my fight with Doflamingo ended?"

"I'll tell you, no harm."

"We fought to a draw."

"His strength is indeed formidable—at least stronger than yours. But now, he's likely weaker than me."

With that said,

Crocodile was speechless.

That vile and powerful man, Doflamingo…

Could not even defeat Fist Demon?

Indeed!

Fist Demon Lu En—this man is a complete monster!

Losing to him,

is not shameful at all.

On the contrary,

it is perfectly normal.

"One day, I will reclaim my honor!"

Crocodile secretly made up his mind.

"I'll be waiting!"

At this moment, Lu En suddenly tossed out a line.

Hiss—

Crocodile sucked in a cold breath, staring at Lu En with a look of pure horror.

"Stop looking."

"Doflamingo said the exact same thing to me."

"You think I don't know what's going through your head?"

"Nothing more than wanting to save face."

"So…"

"I'll wait for you!"

Lu En gazed at Crocodile with a smiling face.

Instantly,

Crocodile felt a chill rise from the soles of his feet straight up to the crown of his head.

His scalp tingled, his hair standing on end in sheer terror.

This monster, the Fist Demon…

He's far too terrifying! And.
