After all, I never really planned to kill you,\" Cyrus said in a relaxed tone, his left hand still gripping the blade of Yoru.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cyrus had thought Hawkeye would dodge. He hadn't expected him to go for a mutual exchange.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A pity it wouldn't have worked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hawkeye looked at the blade gripped by Cyrus with a look of wonder on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had never imagined that his full-power strike could be caught bare-handed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was well aware of his own strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the three Yonko's who currently dominated the New World wouldn't dare to take his blade head-on with their physical bodies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, this strange man, Cyrus, had caught his strike with a bare hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And after fighting at full power for over an hour, Cyrus's aura hadn't weakened in the slightest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What Hawkeye didn't know was that Cyrus was also feeling a bit helpless at this moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hadn't originally planned to activate Unyielding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to his previous estimates, he could maintain his full-power use of Haki and his Devil Fruit Ability for over ten hours.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this clash with Hawkeye had taught him that plans were just plans, and most things rarely went according to them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially when fighting an expert like Hawkeye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he had done his best to use Observation Haki and Elemental Transformation to dodge Hawkeye's slashes, he had still been hit many times.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially that final strike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His remaining twenty-odd health points had been wiped out in a single blow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wasn't at a point where he could just fool around as he pleased.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only when he could fight to a draw or even defeat these truly top-tier powerhouses of the sea in his regular state would he have the capital to be reckless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I lo—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Cyrus release his sword, Hawkeye began to speak, but before he could finish, he was sent flying backward by a slap from Cyrus.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Get back...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hawkeye heard Cyrus's voice and then his entire body was sent flying, instantly leaving the airspace above the island.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as confusion arose in his mind, he saw a true sun appear above the deserted island, instantly engulfing the entire landmass and radiating infinite light and heat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'He was still hiding his strength?'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The thought stunned the backward-flying Hawkeye as he watched the astonishing scene unfold above the increasingly distant deserted island.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'He was hiding his strength?'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This thought also surfaced in the mind of Issho, who was on a small boat far away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though the distance was considerable, his Observation Haki could still perceive some of what was happening on the island.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And now, Issho could naturally sense the kind of power contained in the events unfolding above the deserted island, and he knew, of course, that Cyrus was behind it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This current display was far stronger than when he had fought him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is this his true strength?\" Issho murmured, turning his head to look at Robin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Robin's Observation Haki couldn't see the deserted island, but from here, the sun appearing in its direction was visible to the naked eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the boat, Enel was dumbfounded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mantra was his Observation Haki, and in terms of range, Enel's was not much smaller than Cyrus's, so he saw everything most clearly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as the three on the boat were shocked and bewildered, a figure shot back with a whistling sound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As it passed over the boat, the figure kicked the air, finally landing on the deck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hawkeye looked a bit disheveled now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His previously clean and tidy clothes were covered in scorch marks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The hat on his head was also missing one side of its brim.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After landing, Hawkeye said nothing, his eyes fixed intently on the deserted island.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Cyrus was doing his best to rein in his power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could now confirm it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His previous theory was completely correct.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The stronger he was in his normal state, the greater the power boost he received after activating Unyielding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What came with it was a terrifying, indescribable power within his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The power inside him felt endless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whether it was Haki, stamina, or the Devil Fruit Ability he could control and transform.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How strong was this attack?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cyrus looked down at the island, which had been completely transformed into an island of magma.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He subconsciously wanted to launch an attack but forcefully stopped himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn't predict the power of such a strike, but his mind recalled the attack Imu would use in the future with the Mother Flame to make the Lulusia Kingdom disappear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'It probably wouldn't reach that level.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cyrus thought, gathering and guiding the surging power within him toward the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if it didn't, the tsunami this attack would cause could affect islands over a very large area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this was a rare opportunity. Conqueror's Haki, activate!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cyrus decided to unleash his Conqueror's Haki without the slightest reservation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An invisible shockwave spread out in all directions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sea surface roiled under its influence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The clouds in the sky were blasted apart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wave after wave of terrifying pressure radiated outwards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the small boat far away, Robin and Enel, caught completely unprepared by the Conqueror's Haki shockwave, fainted instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Hawkeye and Issho broke out in a cold sweat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Conqueror's Haki!\" Hawkeye said with difficulty, looking at the changes in the surroundings caused by Cyrus's unrestrained release of his Conqueror's Haki.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Streaks of black lightning appeared in the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the fireball above the deserted island.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cyrus sensed the presence of his Conqueror's Haki.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Previously, he could use Conqueror's Haki, but compared to the other two types, it was too ethereal and elusive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could use it before, but he couldn't control it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, he could feel the flow of his Conqueror's Haki.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'An opportunity!'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, Cyrus thought of using this chance to master the advanced applications of Conqueror's Haki.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the very least, to master Conqueror's Haki Emission.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment this thought arose, he succeeded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes, just that easily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Cyrus himself found it a bit incredible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was this a qualitative change brought about by a quantitative one?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The effects of Unyielding were still increasing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cyrus unleashed his Observation Haki, instantly covering an area of over a hundred kilometers in radius.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, his Conqueror's Haki swept across.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several pirate ships within this range were hit by the Conqueror's Haki, and the entire ships fell silent in an instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guiding Conqueror's Haki with Observation Haki!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cyrus tried to finely control his Conqueror's Haki.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The opportunity to have Unyielding active was rare, he had to try everything he could.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was a technique Red Hair had demonstrated, using fine control of Conqueror's Haki to extend its suppressive effect over a great distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this time, he failed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Conqueror's Haki Emission was something he could accomplish easily in this state.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But finely controlling Conqueror's Haki to extend its power over a great distance required mastery and precise control.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the current Cyrus couldn't even control his Conqueror's Haki, let alone anything else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was on the verge of losing control of his Devil Fruit Ability and Armament Haki as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The power had already exceeded the extent he could master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hawkeye wasn't entirely wrong.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When they first started fighting, Hawkeye had said he wasn't controlling his strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he could perfectly control his power in his regular state, then after activating Unyielding, he at least wouldn't be like this, uncontrollably releasing all this power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although it was still very strong!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---------\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Read 40 chapters ahead and support me on patreon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>patreon (.)com\u002FNewbietranslator\u003C\u002Fp>",1282,"2026-06-05T17:57:20.376Z",1,"novelbin.me","84d2ba7dfe78c341b6ad93155de4256fb160d4d42974df14ba8454347ba0d3f7","one-piece-bounty-hunter-king-chapter-153","one-piece-bounty-hunter-king-chapter-151",263,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fone-piece-bounty-hunter-king-cover.jpg"]
