Chapter 671

"Why are we told not to provoke the child who arrived in Loguetown?"

Someone asked.

"W-wait, what?!"

"I remember now!"

. 0 0

Suddenly, a man's pupils shrank, his expression drastically changing.

Sss—

He involuntarily drew in a sharp breath, his face blank with horror and fear, staring dumbly at Lu En's receding back.

Intense fear surged into his heart!

"What did you remember? Do you know him?"

A man beside him asked.

"I know who he is."

"Thank goodness…"

"Thank goodness we didn't choose to provoke him just now!"

"Otherwise, we'd be dead and dismembered!"

"The teenage boy who just passed by is the mastermind behind the destruction of the Buggy Pirates a year ago! Now I understand why that boy gave me a sense of familiarity."

"Our boss told us not to provoke children because he feared stirring up an entity we couldn't possibly challenge."

"That entity we couldn't challenge…"

"Is the teenage boy who just walked past us!"

The man spoke in a trembling voice.

He paused.

Then he continued.

"I never expected…"

"That monster has returned to Loguetown again!"

"If I remember correctly…"

"That monster has already earned a formidable reputation across the Grand Line."

He said.

Someone asked: "What reputation?"

"Fist Demon! Fist Demon Lu En! The strongest genius in Navy history! The most terrifying monster of the seas!"

With the man's answer,

The entire crowd fell utterly silent!

Not a sound!

After a long while,

Gulp!

More than a dozen thugs hidden in the alleyways all involuntarily swallowed hard, their hearts filled with terror and shock.

The name Fist Demon…

They certainly knew it well!

Even in the East Blue.

The fame of Fist Demon Lu En remained prominent, impossible to ignore.

"H-he's the legendary Fist Demon?!"

Turning their gazes, they all stared with terror and dread at the direction Lu En had left.

At this moment,

Their inner fear had been amplified infinitely.

Moments later.

They all snapped out of their shock.

"Hurry! Hurry and take this news to our boss!"

"That monster has returned to Loguetown!"

"Please, Boss, during this time, strictly control your men—don't let anyone try to provoke him."

"Otherwise…"

"We're doomed!"

In an instant,

The entire underground world of Loguetown churned with hidden currents.

It became unusually quiet.

Not a stir.

The eerie underground world left Loguetown's residents utterly bewildered.

They couldn't understand.

Normally…

How had all those thugs hiding in the corners suddenly become so meek today?

Had they gone straight?

Turned over a new leaf?

Everyone was baffled.

In short.

Regardless of how people speculated, the environment and atmosphere of Luo Ge Town had indeed become unusually peaceful.

Like a town brimming with tranquil energy.

There was not a trace of menace, oppression, or chaos.

As the one directly involved, Lu En was naturally unaware of any of this.

At this moment,

He had successfully arrived at the Navy Junzhibu in Luo Ge Town.

Before the Navy Junzhibu.

Lu En wore an expression of deep emotion.

Gazing at the towering, massive Navy Junzhibu before him, radiating an aura of solemn gravity, his thoughts seemed to return to a year ago.

A year ago, he had just prepared to travel from the East Sea to the Navy Headquarters in Marineford; Luo Ge Town had been the final stop in the East Sea.

At that time,

He had personally captured the clown Buggy and brought him to the Navy Junzhibu, causing a shock throughout the entire branch. "One Zero Zero"

And on this day,

He had returned again!

The only difference was…

A year ago, he had not come here as a Navy officer.

Now,

He had come to the Navy Junzhibu as a Rear Admiral of the Navy Headquarters.

In simple terms,

With his current status, everyone in the Navy Junzhibu was bound to obey his orders and commands.

A Rear Admiral of the Navy Headquarters held a higher rank than a Vice Admiral of the Navy Junzhibu!

It goes without saying.

Lu En's status was extraordinarily prestigious and noble.

Aside from the change in status…

Was his strength.
