Chapter 89: Shocking Conqueror's Haki Stuns the Entire Venue

Boom—

Endless waves of Conqueror's Haki, surging like a tidal force crashing down mountains, spread outward from Lu En's body in every direction, blanketing the entire tavern and a radius of over a hundred meters around it.

Shattering-the-Heavens Conqueror's Haki…

Dominating the entire scene with overwhelming force!

And so,

Visible to the naked eye…

The pirates swept up by this invisible, intangible aura had still been wearing gloating expressions on their faces just a moment ago, but in an instant, their faces went utterly rigid.

In a flash,

Their eyes rolled back,

And foam flecked their lips.

Their minds and consciousness, battered by an intensely terrifying shock, were crushed to dust on the spot by the tremendous power brought by the Conqueror's Haki.

"Ugh… ugh…"

One by one, the pirates who lost consciousness also lost control of their limbs.

Thud!

Thud!

……

As a series of dull thuds rang out.

It could be seen,

A group of pirates collapsed to the ground one after another, unconscious.

Once they fell, a great swath of them went down at once!

A full hundred-plus pirates—in the span of a single blink—some ninety-odd of them were knocked out by the Conqueror's Haki, sprawled paralyzed on the ground without moving, their bodies stiff as boards, like a pile of cold corpses.

All of it happened in the span of a heartbeat.

Before any pirate in the entire tavern could even react,

Over ninety pirates had already been knocked unconscious by the Conqueror's Haki.

Impossible to guard against,

Impossible to block.

Faced with the burst of Conqueror's Haki from Lu En, they simply did not possess the capital to resist.

The atmosphere was oppressive!

Silence!

The entire venue was utterly silent!

As the world-shaking Conqueror's Haki unleashed by Lu En faded, the pirates within the tavern who could still maintain a clear mind were now few and far between.

As this entire batch of pirates collapsed heavily to the ground, the whispers that had filled the tavern had vanished without a trace.

The Conqueror's Haki burst forth with terrifying speed,

And faded just as quickly.

In less than a few breaths' time,

The Conqueror's Haki unleashed by Lu En dispersed into nothing.

At this moment,

Looking in every direction,

All anyone could see was—

A full hundred of the most vicious pirates, all lying eerily on the ground without moving, as if they had lost every sign of life.

Were it not for their chests still rising and falling, showing they were still alive,

One might…

Mistake them for a pile of cold corpses.

The bizarre scenes were displayed with perfect clarity before the eyes of the few surviving pirates.

Their faces went pale, covered in terror and horror, their eyes filled with fear and shock.

All of this utterly shattered their understanding of the world.

Their worldview collapsed on the spot!

Gulping!

The blue-haired man couldn't help but swallow hard, his face so pale it was nearly bloodless, his eyes filled with terror as he stared at the pirate companions lying at his feet.

He was dumbfounded.

He had been swaggering and overbearing…

But at this very moment,

Seeing nearly a hundred pirates wiped out in an instant!

The arrogance vanished from his face without a trace, replaced by sheer terror.

He felt a fear he had never known before.

He happened to be one of the survivors within the range of the Conqueror's Haki.

From this, it could be seen,

That this man possessed considerable strength and mental fortitude—otherwise, he could not have withstood the Conqueror's Haki unleashed by Lu En.

"J-just now…"

"What exactly happened?!"

The blue-haired man's lips trembled, his whole body shaking violently beyond control.

He had originally been preparing to mock Lu En…

Thinking the latter was overestimating himself, daring to openly provoke their entire Baki Pirate Crew!

Little did he expect,

In the next second, such an inconceivable, astonishing phenomenon would occur.

"It's an aura…"

"I felt it."

"Just now, an extremely terrifying aura enveloped my body."

"It was as if I had sunk deep into the Nine Hells of the underworld."

"At that moment, my body couldn't move at all!"

A pirate who had nearly been scared into paralysis spoke in a trembling voice.

Watching helplessly,

All the pirate companions beside him, one after another, lost consciousness and collapsed to the ground.

This scene truly delivered an intense visual shock to the surviving pirates present, and also ignited the flames of terror in their hearts, burning fiercely.

Thick fear welled up in their hearts, piercing through body and soul!

"A-aura?!"

The blue-haired man recalled,

The surging aura that had swept over his whole body just now made him feel as if he had returned to his childhood, when he had once wandered into the wild mountains and forests, facing a fierce beast alone.

That deep sense of powerlessness lingered in his heart.

Powerless!

Helpless!

Fear!

Panic!

Countless emotions, in an instant, took control of his entire body.

Many years later,

The blue-haired man never dreamed that one day, he would once again feel that deep, heartfelt sense of powerlessness from facing a fierce beast alone as a child.

"What on earth is going on?!"

"In an instant…"

"Nearly a hundred people were killed on the spot!"

"Were they all stunned unconscious by that aura just now?"

"What kind of method is this exactly?"

"How could it be so terrifying!"

The blue-haired man's throat was dry, his fists clenched tight, the fear in his heart refusing to subside.

In his entire life, he had never experienced such an earth-shattering, bizarre event.

Shifting his gaze,

He cast a pleading, panicked look toward Boss Clown Baki, not far away, as if seeking an accurate answer from the latter.

As the remaining few survivors, several pirates' fear-filled gazes simultaneously fixed on Baki.
