BIG MOM Pirates in Turmoil: The Navy and CP0 Enter the Fray!

Wood had forgotten the name of the old man who taught Luffy Ryuo Haki, but no matter how impressive the guy was, could he really be more impressive than Dark King Rayleigh?

Rayleigh had taught Luffy Haki for so long. Was all that teaching worth less than a few days of instruction from some old man in Wano Country?

First, Luffy learned the strongest Kenbunshoku Haki in the Totto Land arc, then mastered the strongest Armament Haki in Wano Country. Next came Haki Infusion and Gear Fifth, unlocked through Devil Fruit Awakening. Even the status of his Devil Fruit had just gotten an explosive upgrade.

And all of this happened in less than two or three months. Wood could only say Oda had gone completely overboard with the cheat powers he gave Luffy.

Even a transmigrator's arrogant peer wouldn't be so blatant about cheating.

In just a few short months, Luffy had gone from getting knocked out in one hit by Kaido to being able to defeat him. What did that leave for veterans like Kaido and BIG MOM, who had roamed the seas for years?

Zoro could have held his own
