Sailing: This Bounce-Bounce Fruit is a little different.

For example, the first time when the talent absorption is [10] or higher.

This time, however, the change only occurred when the silver-level talent was at level ten or higher.

Does that mean that next time, when the Golden Talent reaches [Ten], the Absorption Talent will continue to upgrade?

Hai glanced at his golden talent, which was about to reach level five, thought for a moment, and nodded secretly.

It's highly likely; we'll know once we've collected all the necessary materials.

Subsequently.

When Hai focused his attention on the [Sword Prodigy] and [Armament Haki], he couldn't help but be somewhat surprised.

I didn't expect Smoker's [Armament Haki] talent in this world to be so high, and Tashigi's [Sword Prodigy], her swordsmanship talent is quite strong.

Think for a moment.

Seeing that both talents were quite good, Hai had a slight thought and directly chose to fuse with [Armament Haki] 31.

next moment.

A warm current spread through my body.

Intense pain ensued.

Boom boom boom!

At this moment, it felt as if countless people were wielding fine hammers, meticulously sculpting and refining his muscles, bones, internal organs, and other tissues through countless hammer blows.

From the outside in...

From the inside out...

Countless trials and tribulations, accompanied by intense pain.

quite a while.

When the intense pain reaches a certain critical point.

Even Hai, who possesses the pain-relieving ability of "molting," found it somewhat unbearable.

From the deepest part of my body, a strange energy arose spontaneously.

The excruciating pain gradually subsided.

come out!

Hai Chongtong stared intently at his right hand, his eyes narrowing.

Gradually, as if guided and controlled by will, that inexplicable energy slowly condensed towards his right hand.

Not long after, when the mysterious energy condensed into a pitch-black substance in his right hand.

A hint of joy flashed in Hai's eyes.

This is definitely Armament Haki!

He could feel that his right hand was covered by special armor, with a defensive power harder than steel and an attack power that seemed indestructible.

Followed by.

Hai Chongtong looked at his left hand.

In the same manner as his right hand, Armament Haki quickly covered it up.

It only took a few minutes to go from being a novice to becoming proficient.

"Without Smoker's talent for Armament Haki, it would probably have taken far too long to master it..."

Once he was proficient at hardening Armament Haki on his arms, Hai began to experiment with the maximum extent to which he could currently cover his area.

result.

Simply by hardening his two arms, he had already condensed all his domineering aura.

Well……

The domineering aura is still too weak...

As Hai recalls, he remembers Vergo, a member of the Flamingo family who appeared in the original work, who seemed to be able to harden his entire body by covering it with Haki.

Only when it covers the entire body can it be considered a powerful form of Armament Haki.

"Fortunately, I have the [Eagle Eye]; the true nature of [Armament Haki] has been seen through..."

Having figured out how Armament Haki is generated, Hai naturally needs to figure out how to increase and enhance its quantity and quality...

Furthermore, once Zoro and the others have mastered the use of the Six Powers, they can also be taught how to cultivate Armament Haki.

"Only [Observation Haki] and Conqueror's Haki remain..."

Hai Chongtong's gaze shifted.

Even if he hadn't absorbed Smoker's Armament Haki, he was still able to replicate it using his Hawkeye ability to see through its essence.

This attempt also means that his previous assumptions were correct; the [Eagle Eye] ability is indeed very powerful, especially in seeing through techniques originating from oneself.

No wonder Hawkeye has become so powerful over the past decade or so.

"Oh right, the [Sword Prodigy] hasn't been fused yet..."

Thinking of this, Hai's mind stirred slightly.

The "Sword Prodigy" and the "Sword Demon" are directly merged.

However, rather than merging, it would be more accurate to say that it was devoured and digested by the [Sword Demon].

It didn't take long.

When the warm current of the [Sword Prodigy] disappeared completely from my body.

The amplification multiplier of [Sword Demon] on the attribute panel has increased from 50 times that of an ordinary person to 79 times.

In an instant, many insights about swordsmanship flashed through Hai's mind, and even the various sword techniques he had seen Zoro use in battle and training were firmly etched into his memory.

It seems that he can use it whenever he wants, and it's even stronger and faster than the opponent's.

Regarding the realm of "Iron Slicing," even without activating "Eagle Eye," he could already hear the breaths originating from all things...

"Now, I can finally be considered to have truly entered the realm of a swordsman..."

"I have a feeling I can unleash the [Flying Slash] right now..."

Slightly itching to use his hands, Hai picked up the [Heavenly Cloud Flow] and [Ten-Fist Sword] from the table, thought for a moment, and then stepped out of the cabin.

"Hai! You've come at the perfect time..."

From the lookout tower atop the sails, Usopp shouted down, "The lighthouse over there is out. Should we still set off?"

"Destroyed?"

Hai opened his double pupils and saw that the lighthouse in the distant sea was indeed out of service. He turned to look at Nami and the others, who were wearing raincoats, and asked, "Will this affect the rest of the voyage?"

"No."

Nami rolled her eyes and said, "Lighthouses also use lights, so it's not strange that they went out."

"That's why we want a navigator like me! Don't worry... I remember the course."

"That's good."

Hai smiled and gave Usopp an OK sign above him.

The other party then turned their head back and continued to observe the sea conditions.

Wow!

The rain was still pouring down, but the wind was gradually subsiding.

"However, there is one thing that is a bit troublesome..."

Looking at the nautical chart in her hand, Nami's expression was slightly worried.

"If we continue like this, it will be just like the rumors..."

"Don't bottle things up..."

Zhou 303's body emitted transparent ripples that encompassed Nami, and Hai used a spinning, flicking motion to send all the raindrops flying.

"As the captain, I can still do my part to help you."

"He's really reliable, Hai!"

Seeing that even the rainwater on her feet bounced off, Nami gave a thumbs up, then sat on the deck and pointed at the nautical chart, saying:

"I don't know if you're aware... but the entrance to the Grand Line is actually a mountain!"

"Take a look at the nautical chart, although I don't really believe in it either..."

“The nautical chart is correct…” Sitting opposite Nami, Hai looked at the area she was pointing to and nodded, “As far as I know, to get to the Grand Line, we do have to go upstream. The ocean currents will carry us up there…”

"However, the specifics of the voyage will depend on you, because there's a risk of being thrown off, but don't worry about that, just leave it to me..."

"I've heard that once you go up there, you'll be at the confluence of three other seas. You need to consider how to avoid collisions with ships from other seas first..."

"So that's it."

Upon hearing this, Nami seemed to realize something.
