Chapter 750

"Just now, while speaking with that person, my mind went completely blank."

Ta Li thought to himself, still shaken.

Then,

He turned around, facing the three hundred or so naval subordinates behind him, and quickly regained his former authority.

Before Lu En, he dared not put on such an air.

But before this group of subordinates,

He, as a full colonel of the navy, had no need to hold back too much.

"Listen up, all of you!"

"Follow me immediately to the garbage mountain thirty li east of Windmill Village."

"Carry out Lu En's junior general's orders: capture and imprison every last one of the bandits at the garbage mountain."

"Understood?"

Ta Li's face was stern.

"Yes, Colonel Ta Li."

The group of naval personnel bowed deeply and hurriedly responded.

"Good. March out!"

Immediately,

Ta Li unhesitatingly led the three hundred elite naval personnel toward the garbage mountain east of Windmill Village.

Lu En had personally given the order—he dared not slack off for a moment.

The instant he received it, he obeyed Lu En's command and set out for the garbage mountain to capture the bandits.

Not long after,

The group of naval personnel successfully left Windmill Village.

On the road,

The group of naval personnel seemed dazed and distracted.

Seeing this,

Ta Li frowned, his gaze turning sharp and hostile. "What's going on with you? Why have you been so absent-minded ever since leaving Windmill Village? This is a mission, not a sightseeing trip!"

"With your current state, what will you do if something unexpected happens?"

"Snap out of it, all of you! Don't look like you've lost your parents!"

"You've been punished too few times—you still haven't learned! How can you be distracted during a mission? If you don't want to be in the navy, I can approve your resignation right now!"

After this reprimand,

The naval personnel quickly snapped back to attention.

Seeing this, Ta Li nodded in satisfaction.

After a moment's thought,

He said bluntly: "I know what you've all been thinking just now—you're wondering who exactly Lu En, the junior general, is. Am I right?"

"Since you've already found out,"

"Lu En, the junior general, is in fact the strongest genius the navy has ever seen."

"Then,"

"Let me add one more thing."

"You know Lu En's name, but you don't know his nickname. I'm sure you've heard his nickname before."

"The people of the sea call Lu En, the junior general…"

"Fist Demon!"

As soon as he spoke,

The entire group fell utterly silent!

Not a sound!

The elite naval personnel all widened their eyes and came to an abrupt, frozen halt.

They opened their mouths but could not speak.

Their minds were struck as if by thunder…

Leaving them stunned, their heads ringing.

"F-Fist Demon?!"

"Fist Demon Lu En?!"

"Of course!"

"I thought his name sounded familiar from the start."

"So…"

"Lu En, the junior general, is actually the legendary Fist Demon!"

"A supreme powerhouse of the sea!"

"A terrifying monster who made countless pirates tremble in fear."

"Now I finally understand why Lu En, the junior general, so young, became a navy headquarters junior general—he's the legendary Fist Demon!"

"The one who crushed Bai Huzi the Second, held his own against Doflamingo, and defeated Crocodile!"

"Good heavens!"

Every naval soldier showed shock and loss of composure.

This truth,

It completely overturned their entire understanding.

The name of the Fist Demon — they naturally felt it thundered in their ears like a familiar legend.

It's just that…

Until just now, they had never connected the name of the Fist Demon with Major General Lu En, the greatest prodigy in history.

At this moment,

as Colonel Ta Li revealed the answer,

everything finally became clear to them.

"That one…"

"is the true top-tier powerhouse of the sea!"

"I never expected the rumors from the outside world to actually be true — that a terrifying monster on the level of Fist Demon Lu En is really just a boy of only five years old!"

"This is truly too inconceivable."

"A five-year-old boy has become a top-tier powerhouse of this sea! Would you dare believe it?!"

"If I hadn't witnessed it with my own eyes today, I would never have dared imagine such a world-shocking phenomenon."

"Major General Lu En is actually the Fist Demon! The terrifying monster whose fearsome name resounds across the sea!"

At this moment, one after another, the naval elites simultaneously revealed expressions brimming with worship.

After Lu En's true identity was revealed,

the worship of every Marine present for Lu En shot straight up!

So much so that,

they instantly transformed into Lu En's fanatical fans on the spot!

"Never in a million years expected this."

"That one day, we would actually be able to behold the august countenance of the Fist Demon."

"So Windmill Village is actually the Fist Demon's hometown! Major General Lu En's hometown!"

"Now I finally understand why Colonel Ta Li, from the very beginning, behaved so deferentially toward Major General Lu En."

"Not only is there a huge gap between their statuses, even their strength has an insurmountable gap between them!"

"Fist Demon Lu En — that is the true, genuine top-tier powerhouse of the sea!"

The assembled Marines were all faces full of shock.

Next,

under Ta Li's lead,

a group of Marines, hearts filled with immense shock, hurried toward the Garbage Mountain.
