Chapter 632: Navy Hero Relay Race
A tooth-aching strange sound came from the air, the source of which was the collision of the grandfather and grandson's fists.
Don't look at Luffy's fist as big and intimidating; Garp managed to hold his own against it with a pair of unremarkable iron fists.
"Hiss~ Is Vice Admiral Garp getting serious?"
"This is the strength of the previous generation's Navy Hero!!!"
In the sky, Garp's eyes were splitting, his veins bulging, enduring immense pressure. But even so, Garp still roared loudly: "Luffy, this time, I will not be soft-hearted, AAAAAHHHH!!!"
Boom~
Garp stomped on the air fiercely, relying on his peerless strength to use Moon Walk to push against Luffy's Bajrang Gun step by step.
Luffy, occupying the high ground, had his smile stall, and then he smiled even more happily: "It's getting more and more interesting! Grandpa!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a sudden change occurred.
Luffy suddenly retracted his fist—no, it shouldn't be considered retracting his fist, but rather retracting the gas in his fist into his body. Garp was also able to approach Luffy quickly, but don't forget.
The gas in Luffy's body just changed position and didn't disappear. At this time, Luffy's body had already become bloated, but if you looked closely, you would find that Luffy was like a pressure cooker, accumulating terrifying energy.
Just when Garp was only a hundred meters away from Luffy, Luffy grinned: "You fell for it!"
Garp's expression changed. In his line of sight, the bloated Luffy suddenly shrank, but his fist became larger and larger. This is... the secondary propulsion Gomu Gomu no Bajrang Gun?
Garp quickly retracted his fist, preparing to run away, but it was already too late.
Bang~
Pfft—
Garp was hit by the Bajrang Gun and then fell into the island like a meteor. The moment he touched the ground, it triggered an explosion comparable to a small nuclear bomb, and Diterre Island shook.
The onlookers had to take a defensive stance to avoid being affected by the terrifying shockwave.
Garp is really going to suffer this time.
Karl, under the protection of the shield, scratched his head and muttered in a low voice. Both are "cheaters"; he worked hard to slack off for nearly ten years to have this strength, and Luffy caught up to him in just 2 years.
It seems his "cheat" is still a bit conservative... No, 90% of the cheats in parallel worlds are too conservative. It has to be Oda! If you're going to cheat, cheat big; small tricks are useless.
The shockwave raged for nearly 3 minutes before the situation gradually stabilized.
A large pit with a diameter of a hundred meters appeared in the center of the island, and Garp, in tattered clothes, was lying in the center of the pit rolling his eyes. It's a family trait.
"Vice Admiral Garp!" The Hawk faction generals in the Navy looked worried. With such a big commotion, wouldn't Garp be beaten to death by his grandson?
Gion walked to Karl's side and pushed him: "Hey, Karl, what are you still standing there for? Aren't you afraid something will happen to Vice Admiral Garp?"
Karl laughed: "Don't worry, Sister Gion. Mr. Garp's bones are tough! It's just a minor injury; it's nothing serious. My holy light energy is not for show."
The facts were indeed so. After Garp fell into a coma, the holy light energy constantly repaired Garp's injuries. Garp had long been out of danger. The current Garp should just be asleep.
"You guys go and bring Mr. Garp over! He's fine."
After speaking, Karl drew Raven from his waist and sighed: "I thought I could save some trouble, but I didn't expect I'd have to step in myself!"
Zoro has Fujitora, Sanji has Kizaru, Jinbe has Akainu, Luffy has Garp. Now that Garp is down, Karl has to step up.
Actually, Karl felt that Garp should still be able to fight, but he didn't want to fight anymore. After all, no matter what, Luffy is his own grandson. Garp couldn't really beat him to death... mainly because he didn't have the ability, you know!
Karl gently brushed Raven's silvery-white blade with his left hand, looked up at the imposing Nika Luffy in the sky, and sighed sincerely: "The world changes too fast..."
"Next, I will deal with the Straw Hat boy, and his crew will be left to you. I hope you won't let me down. In this battle, the Navy must not only win but also achieve an all-around advantage, understand?"
"Yes!"
Everyone present, whether Hawk or Dove faction, gave Karl a lot of face. Who told Karl to be the supreme commander of this operation? On this battlefield, his words were more effective than Kuzan's.
Under the gaze of all the Vice Admirals, a dazzling golden light bloomed on Karl's body, making people only able to see a human silhouette. Immediately after, the light began to become illusory, and with a "biu" sound, the human-shaped light cluster had turned into a pool of light particles and dissipated with the wind.
In the sky, Karl held Raven in his right hand, looked at Luffy in front, and a smile curled at the corner of his mouth: "Mr. Garp is your grandfather after all! You're really filial, Luffy!"
Luffy didn't catch Karl's subtext at all and laughed carelessly: "It's fine, Grandpa won't blame me. When he beat me up when I was a kid, I didn't blame him!"
"Hahaha~" Karl laughed dumbly.
"Uncle Karl, I will defeat you! I want to avenge Shanks!" Luffy's gaze was very firm. He knew very well that Karl was strong because Shanks was personally sent to Impel Down by Karl.
However, after the battle with Kaido and the awakening of his fruit ability, Luffy felt that he had the capital to wrestle with Karl, at least not like before, without any power to resist.
"Defeat me? That depends on your ability. But, even if you defeat me, so what? Your partners, except for Zoro, Sanji, and Jinbe, have all been captured by the Navy."
"If nothing goes wrong, Zoro and Sanji will also be defeated soon. By then, even if you defeat me, how much strength will you have left to deal with the Navy's three Admirals and a dozen Vice Admirals?"
It must be said that Karl was telling the truth, and Luffy obviously realized the severity of the problem.
"Uncle Karl, even if failure is destined, I will never give up. Let's have a man-to-man duel, Uncle Karl!"
"If I win, you let us go! How about that?"
Luffy still had some small schemes, knowing that Karl was easy to talk to. This way, as long as he could win, he could take his partners and escape a disaster. He still trusted Karl's character.
"Then, what if you lose?"
Luffy's smile stiffened. Obviously, he hadn't thought about what would happen if he lost.
Seeing this, Karl said with a smile: "If you lose, you have to obey all the Navy's arrangements. How about that?"
Luffy was stunned. Obey all the Navy's arrangements—is this... still the life he wants?
However, at this moment, he didn't seem to have a better choice. ===== CHAPTER 634 =====
