Chapter 109 Teacher Jin

Boom—

The blade's edge struck the ground directly, cutting a huge gash in the earth, sending countless fragments of stone flying.

Meanwhile, in another spot, Luo slowly stood up from the ground and subconsciously exhaled.

I almost got hit!

Looking up again, the sky was still filled with flying blades of light. The number of blades that had previously given him trouble was terrifying.

!!!

Luo's mouth opened slightly, as if he wanted to say something but stopped, his gaze fixed on the terrifying battle.

This was the first time he had witnessed a battle between top-tier experts at this distance, and he was utterly awestruck from beginning to end.

But amidst the shock, there was also a deep sense of excitement and exhilaration.

He finally witnessed Kyle's true strength.

Sure enough, he was still far from being one of the world's top experts, but that was precisely what fueled his competitive spirit.

Luo's eyes held a hint of longing.

One day, he too can become such a strong person!!

Above the sky, the battle between Kyle and the Golden Lion had reached its climax.

They unleashed a series of incredibly powerful attacks.

After learning that Shiki possessed both Conqueror's Haki Defense and Conqueror's Haki Entanglement, Kyle slightly changed his fighting strategy, relying more on swordsmanship to fight Shiki, using his abilities as a supplement.

He naturally had ideas about these two techniques, and if he could learn them, it would definitely boost his strength once again.

In extreme real combat, one's domineering aura can only reach a higher level!

This is something that the mediocre teacher Rayleigh once said.

Within the Marine Headquarters, Zephyr couldn't exert that kind of pressure on him, while Garp could, but the problem is that both are Marines, and Garp treats Kyle like a grandson, making it difficult for them to fight to such an intense degree.

Although Wang Zhi's strength was not weak, his opponent had not mastered these two advanced techniques, so Kyle naturally did not waste time with him.

The current Golden Lion is good. Although his strength is not as great as it was at its peak, it is just right for Kyle. He has also mastered two advanced Conqueror's Haki techniques.

Isn't this a perfect opportunity for him to "learn"?

In the original work, Luffy improved his strength so quickly by constantly learning and doing sit-ups during battles.

Now it's his turn to give it a try!

Kyle was extremely focused, seeing no one but the Golden Lion as his opponent.

Every clash, every collision, was an opportunity to observe how the Golden Lion used its domineering aura.

After what seemed like an eternity, the number of spectators below continued to grow, their eyes wide as they stared at both sides, occasionally letting out a gasp of surprise.

Above the sky, countless intertwined sword energies disappeared, and Kyle and the Golden Lion stood facing each other, panting heavily.

But it was clear that the Golden Lion's breathing was louder and more rapid.

Kyle smiled slightly and said:

"Golden Lion, age is becoming your Achilles' heel!!"

Whether it's Conqueror's Haki Entanglement or Conqueror's Haki Defense, both are techniques that consume a lot of stamina and Haki, especially Conqueror's Haki Defense, which consumes an even more exaggerated amount of energy.

Given the current state of the Golden Lion, it is clear that they cannot sustain this for long.

The advancing age and various old injuries have a significant impact on the Golden Lion.

But Kyle wouldn't give the Golden Lion a chance to catch his breath. He had already gained some advantages in the previous battle, and he had to strike while the iron was hot, otherwise the opportunity would slip away.

Kyle lunged forward again and slashed fiercely at the Golden Lion with his sword.

"You wretched brat!!"

Golden Lion cursed under his breath, and faced with Kyle's attack, he had no choice but to draw his sword again.

Once again, streaks of sword energy shot out from the sky. After a considerable amount of time, Kyle, who was in the middle of the battle, suddenly narrowed his eyes, and a sharp light shot out from his pupils.

He swung the sword again.

Golden Lion swung his sword to defend as before, but his expression changed drastically the moment they made contact.

Kyle's purple lightning blasted through the golden lion's withered tree and struck straight at his chest.

puff! !

The sound of flesh tearing apart rang out, and another line of blood exploded. The golden lion's body was also cleaved from the sky and fell to the ground below like a meteorite.

Boom!!

A tremendous explosion rang out, and a huge crater instantly appeared in the ground, with a powerful shockwave spreading rapidly in all directions.

Centered on the point where the golden lion landed, the surrounding ground shattered in a spiderweb pattern, countless fragments flew everywhere, and a wave of smoke and dust swept out.

The entire floating island trembled as a result.

Kyle floated in the sky, not immediately giving chase, but slowly picked up the purple lightning.

Strands of black and red lightning flickered around the blade.

Conqueror's Haki envelops you!!

Kyle couldn't help but smile.

It was worth fighting the Golden Lion for so long and getting so many injuries. Although the wounds weren't deep, if it weren't for the need to master Conqueror's Haki Entanglement, he could have kept using his Devil Fruit ability to stretch and he wouldn't have gotten so many injuries.

But judging from the current outcome, it was all worth it.

He finally mastered the Conqueror's Haki Entanglement technique, a skill that Guy had described as only masterable by top-tier fighters.

It really wasn't easy!

It has taken Luffy four years to master this technique after awakening Conqueror's Haki, which is much slower than Luffy mastering the Entangling Technique in just two years after awakening Conqueror's Haki in the original manga.

What could be the reason?

Hmm! We've lost a good teacher!

In the original work, Luffy's strength only made a three-level leap after meeting Guy.

Now he also has Teacher Jin's guidance. Although the teaching level may not be as good as Teacher Kai's, at least it has allowed him to master Conqueror's Haki Entanglement, right?

But at this point, Teacher Jin is no longer of any use to me.

First of all, although Teacher Jin has not yet lost consciousness after being stabbed by him, his aura has weakened considerably.

Removing the ship's rudder that had been stuck for over ten years and the two knives that were embedded in his flesh was bound to have an impact. However, the renewed spirit he had when they were first removed kept him from experiencing any abnormalities for a short period of time.

Simply put, it's an adrenaline surge.

Now that time has passed, the effects of the adrenaline have naturally worn off, and Teacher Jin's strength is almost gone.

Another point is that in the battle just now, he only had some understanding of how to use Conqueror's Haki to entangle, but he had no clue how to use Conqueror's Haki for defense.

Given Mr. Jin's current condition, it is clear that he can no longer help him comprehend Conqueror's Haki defense.

Therefore, it's time for this battle to end!

Kyle gripped the knife with both hands and raised it.

Terrifying and violent lightning shot out from the blade, and the winding lightning continued to ravage the sky.

Then, with a sudden, powerful slash, a massive bolt of lightning swept down...
