"What's going on! What's going on? Why did those two stop fighting?" Usopp asked, looking at the two men standing in the distance.

Zoro calmly looked ahead and said, "The battle is over! It seems the victor should be Haku!"

As a Three Sword Style swordsman, he could naturally see it.

Haku's final move overwhelmed Shanks's Kamunagi —and you have to understand, that was Kamunagi!

Shanks' black cloak suddenly broke into several pieces.

It looks as if it was deliberately cut off!

"When?" Shanks looked behind him in shock, not expecting this outcome.

"Who knows?" Haku shrugged.

There's no need to continue this battle; after all, it comes down to strength.

Unsurprisingly, there are very few truly powerful individuals in the entire maritime world who can rival Haku.

Haku began to suppress her violent aura and returned her Zanpakuto to her System Space.

Shanks also began to unleash his aura and walked towards his Red Force.

However, Shanks, halfway there, still said, "It seems you really won't allow a new Pirate King to be born?"

Haku also headed towards the Thousand Sunny's location!

He said, "It's not that it's forbidden; the Pirate King can still be born. I also hope that Luffy can realize his dream and sit on the throne of the Pirate King!"

Shanks' eyes lit up upon hearing this!

Haku glanced at the other person and said, "Don't be too happy yet! I know you want to start the 'One Piece' war to reignite the war that has never stopped since eight hundred years ago!"

Shanks paused slightly, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes, before resuming his signature hearty smile.

"Haku, you really know a lot!"

Haku remained noncommittal.

"But 'One Piece' is more than just a battle for supremacy; it's the dream of every Pirates, a symbol of freedom and adventure. As for that ancient war, it's long since become history. What we need to do is end this war as soon as possible, isn't that what we need to do?"

"Your ambitions are considerable, Shanks." Haku smiled faintly, but her tone carried an undeniable seriousness. "But remember, this world isn't just about Pirates! Luffy has his path to walk, and I, too, have my mission to fulfill."

The two continued onward, each heading towards their own boat. Although they were going in different directions, an indescribable understanding and respect seemed to permeate the air.

Seeing this, the surrounding crew members also quieted down, as if even the sea breeze was listening to the conversation between these two legendary powerhouses.

Shanks stopped and said seriously, "Judging from your attitude, is there no room for discussion on this matter?"

Haku said, "When the World Government no longer exists, Pirates can pretty much disappear from the Stage of history!"

Shanks frowned slightly upon hearing this. He knew that Haku's words contained profound meaning, not only about the Future of Pirates, but also a kind of foresight about the entire world order.

He pondered for a moment, his gaze lingering on the distance, as if piercing through layers of ocean waves to see an even more expansive world.

"Haku, is your goal... to overthrow the World Government?" Shanks' voice was deep and powerful, each word sounding as if it had been uttered after careful consideration.

Haku stopped and turned to face Shanks, her eyes gleaming with determination. "Not overthrow, but reform. A more just and equitable world order, free from oppression, is what all those who pursue freedom yearn for. The existence of Pirates is both a challenge to the old order and a catalyst for the birth of a new one."

"Your idea is bold, and dangerous." Shanks shook his head, but there was no blame in his tone. "However, I respect your choice. Everyone has their own beliefs and path, and as long as you believe it's right, it's worth pursuing."

Shanks leaped lightly and immediately returned to the Red Force!

Ignoring Haku's gaze, Shanks shouted, "Men, set sail for an adventure!"

At Shanks' command, the crew of the Red Force sprang into action. The sails were hoisted high, the sea breeze billowing them, propelling the legendary Pirates ship forward through the waves. Shanks stood at the bow, his back to Haku, the sea breeze ruffling his red hair, making him appear exceptionally dashing.

"Haku, though we've chosen different paths, we're both pursuing the justice and freedom in our hearts." Shanks' voice drifted towards Haku on the wind, carrying a hint of barely perceptible emotion. "Perhaps one day, we'll achieve the same goal in different ways."

Haku watched the Red Force disappear into the distance, a faint smile playing on her lips. She knew that Shanks' departure didn't signify the end, but rather the beginning of another journey. She turned to face the Thousand Sunny!

Looking at Luffy's signature smile, he shook his head helplessly.

After Haku boarded the Thousand Sunny, Luffy couldn't wait to ask, "Haku, why did you and Shanks have to fight like that?"

"No reason!" Haku used her Fist of Love without hesitation to Luffy forget the question she had just asked.

Haku glanced around and saw that Luo, who had also been on the ship, had already used his ability to return to the submarine!

"Haku! I want to challenge you!" Zoro watched the sword duel between Haku and Shanks.

He now yearns to clash with stronger opponents in order to hone his swordsmanship and reach a higher level.

Zoro's eyes gleamed with an unprecedented fervor and determination, as if he couldn't wait to challenge Haku to a duel.

Haku shook her head and said, "Wait until you can upgrade your three weapons from the Twenty-One Great Grade Swords to the Twelve Supreme Grade Blades! Especially Enma, it's still just a weapon of the Oden, not yours!"

"Haku, are you saying that Zoro's three weapons can be considered as powerful as the Twelve Supreme Grade Blades?" Robin asked with interest.

Haku grabbed a chair and lay down on it!

He said, "Whether or not Zoro can become Twelve Supreme Grade Blades depends on his mastery of Haki."

Luffy asked curiously, "Does this have anything to do with Haki?"

Haku rolled her eyes at Luffy and said, "You don't actually think that just because Awakening your Devil Fruit power, you can ignore the existence of Haki, do you? Didn't Kaido tell you when you fought Kaido that only Haki transcends everything?"

Luffy was speechless for a moment!

Haku said, "Even if it were Gol D. Roger, if his Haki were on Haki with yours, he could forget about becoming the world-famous Pirate King!"
