Chapter 130 Sun Tzu's Brand Fishing Rod!

"Ha ha ha ha!!"

"Didn't you guys eat? Push harder!!"

The old man, Garp, laughed heartily and mocked the many figures surrounding him.

Suddenly, a voice sounded behind him, accompanied by the sound of steam.

"Rubber, rubber..."

"Fighting with hawks and spears!!"

Countless fists, imbued with Armament Haki and tinged with faint steam, rained down on the old man.

Of course, what we call countless fists is actually just two fists; the "countless" is merely an afterimage created by speeds reaching a certain level.

Garp's expression remained unchanged despite the relentless attack.

He didn't make any move either, just stood there with a smile on his face.

Thump thump thump thump—

Countless fists rained down on Garp, making a series of dull thuds.

But Garp did not retreat an inch from the attack. The punches landed on him like tickles, and he even had the leisure to pick his nose under the attack.

"What are you doing, Luffy?"

"You dare to show off such a weak and feeble fist?"

"Its power is scattered, neither flashy nor practical, utterly useless!"

As he spoke, Garp reached out and precisely grasped both wrists of Luffy's fist as it came out.

"Hahaha! Come on, let this old man use you as a whip!!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Garp grabbed Luffy's two wrists together and swung them violently, lashing them out at the others around them.

"Ah~ Ah~ Ah!!"

Luffy's shout came from the sky.

But too many people have used Luffy as a whip, so the others didn't panic at all in the face of this situation.

Facing Luffy flying towards him, Sanji leaped up, spun two and a half times in the air, and then kicked Luffy in the face.

Luffy's face was stretched several degrees, and then a huge force erupted from Sanji's foot, kicking Luffy back towards Garp.

After doing all this, Sanji didn't forget to put a fruit-flavored bar in his mouth and take a deep suck.

If he could, Sanji would definitely want to smoke!

But he remembered very clearly the time Kyle caught him trying to smoke and beat him for ten days and ten nights, so...

Let's forget about it!

Kyle's reason for doing this is quite simple:

Minors are prohibited from smoking!

On Garp's side, watching Luffy being kicked back by Sanji, he narrowed his eyes and, like casting a fishing rod, suddenly flicked the bat, sending Luffy flying again.

This time, the target is Ace.

Ace, seeing his younger brother flying towards him, wore an expression of immense joy.

Step slightly to the side and back, clenching your right fist to generate power.

boom--

Flames ignited, his fist transformed into a burning flame, and as he charged up, the flames grew stronger and brighter.

"Fire Fist!!"

Ace unleashed a powerful punch, and boundless flames erupted from his fist, forming a gigantic fiery fist that charged straight toward Luffy.

The younger brother has to be hit hard, that's how the older brother shows his ability!

Luffy: ? ? ?

In the blink of an eye, Luffy was engulfed in flames, and cries of "It's so hot, it's so hot!" echoed from within the flames.

After the flames subsided, Luffy's entire body turned black, with black smoke billowing from all over him, making him look like he was about to ascend to heaven!

Flames are useful to Luffy, they're not useless!

In the early stages of the original work, Luffy's flames posed a clear threat to him. When faced with flame-infused attacks, he could only choose to dodge rather than withstand them.

Later in Wano Country, during his battle with Kaido, Luffy was able to withstand Kaido's heat breath attacks head-on.

Using willpower to endure is an idealistic notion; that doesn't work in the real world.

In reality, Luffy relied on advanced Armament Haki to greatly enhance his defense, thus blocking most of the damage from the flames.

However, this did not mean he was completely immune to fire. When he was hit by Kaido's heat breath again, black smoke appeared on his body, which showed that the fire could still cause him some damage.

However, once Luffy awakens his Nikka form, he becomes immune to fire, which has virtually no effect on him.

However, Luffy, who is only nine years old, is obviously still very afraid of fire, especially since he hadn't used Armament Haki to defend himself just now.

After all, Luffy never expected his brother Ace to attack him so fiercely!

What Luffy didn't expect was that Garp, his grandfather, didn't care whether he was dead or not. Even seeing him in this state, he still tried his best to throw him back and then throw him out again.

It's okay, there's no problem!

If Ace, as the older brother, doesn't care about his younger brother, then his grandfather has even less reason to care about his grandson.

Grandson? Aren't they just used as weapons?!

Over the next few hours, Luffy was treated kindly by his classmates, who showered him with attacks. After enduring all the attacks, Luffy was completely dizzy and disoriented.

Completely black with tattered clothes, he looked utterly miserable.

In this state, Garp still had some conscience; he didn't use him as a fishing rod anymore, but instead tossed him aside.

His gaze swept over the people around him, finally landing on Ace, a sinister smile appearing on his lips.

"Ace, Luffy's already lying there, I can't show favoritism, you should lie down too!!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Garp bent his knees slightly and slammed his knees against the ground. The powerful reaction force created a large crater in the ground, and Garp's figure disappeared from the spot.

In almost an instant, he arrived in front of Ace and threw a punch at him.

Garp's sudden appearance caused Ace's pupils to shrink, and he instinctively tried to transform into his elemental form to dodge.

But obviously, given the power gap between Ace and Garp, trying to use this trick in front of him is like showing off your axe skills in front of Guan Yu—completely useless!

Bang! !

A dull thud was heard, and Ace's body flew out like a cannonball, making a sound as it cut through the air.

Just as Ace flew away, Garp flashed back to Zoro and appeared in front of him, throwing a punch as well.

Zoro's reaction was similar to Ace's. The moment he saw Garp appear, his pupils contracted, and he immediately crossed his two swords in front of him.

Clang!

The fist, imbued with Armament Haki, struck the sword, producing a metallic clang. The immense force transmitted through the blade, impacting Zoro and sending him flying.

The next second, Garp's figure reappeared in front of Law. Law, who was already mentally prepared, was still shocked for a moment when he saw Garp's figure suddenly appear, but it was much better than the previous two.

He had already expanded into the 'ROOM' field long ago.

"Slaughterhouse!!"
