Observation Haki Soars at Lightning Speed

Kalifa cried out nervously, "Luo Chen, what do we do? The meteorite is about to crash down!"

"Don't worry." Luo Chen stepped forward and drew the Great Grade Blade Kogarashi.

"Slash Wave."

Kogarashi unleashed a Flying Slash Attack toward the meteorite.

BOOM!!

The Flying Slash Attack instantly cleaved the massive blazing-red meteorite in two.

Fragments of rock rained down continuously from the sky.

"So amazing." Tashigi stared blankly at the scene before her.

Kalifa nodded and said, "It really is. So our captain is this powerful. What will we have to fear from now on?"

"No..." Tashigi was just about to retort. She had never admitted that Luo Chen was her captain, nor had she admitted that she was a Pirate.

However, when Tashigi saw Luo Chen's figure, she immediately chose to keep quiet and did not dare continue. She had already experienced Luo Chen's methods three times.

Luo Chen said to Kalifa and Tashigi, "You two stay on the ship."

After saying that, Luo Chen flew straight out. He really ought to meet the future Marine Headquarters admiral, Fujitora Issho.

Besides, the man had just greeted him with an attack. If Luo Chen did not respond, did he take him for a pushover??

Meanwhile, in the casino, Issho said apologetically, "Boss, I'm sorry! I wrecked your establishment."

"I'll use the money I have left as compensation for the damage to the building."

"O-Okay! Fine." How could the dealer dare say otherwise? He might not even live to see the end of the day??

Though Issho could not see, his Observation Haki had already locked onto a figure rapidly flying toward him.

Issho decided to change locations. If a battle broke out here, innocent people might be caught in it at any moment.

So Issho flicked his cane sword, and a section of flooring rose from the ground, carrying him toward an uninhabited area.

Still roughly a thousand meters above the ground, Luo Chen noticed Issho moving in another direction.

He smiled. "Interesting. Is he afraid a battle in town will affect the people here? Then I'll grant his wish."

After laughing, Luo Chen followed Issho in the direction he was moving. The Float-Float Fruit's ability was simply this overpowered.

Although its flying speed was not especially fast, such an unreasonable ability gave its user absolute dominance in the skies.

On Issho's side, he noticed the other party had followed him and felt slightly relieved. It would have been troublesome if the man had not followed.

When the two arrived at a forested area, they had essentially reached the uninhabited region of the island.

Luo Chen was the first to greet him. "I have long heard of you, Mr. Issho."

"So it was not Golden Lion, sir. It seems I was mistaken. Please accept my apologies for my actions just now." Once Issho learned that the newcomer was not Golden Lion, he sincerely apologized.

It could be said that this was his mistake. Issho was also quite puzzled that the other party knew him.

Luo Chen continued, "An apology alone won't smooth this over!"

"If I hadn't been strong enough to shatter that meteorite, I would have been the one killed, Sir Issho."

As Luo Chen spoke, he also used the system to bring up Issho's status panel.

[Inherit one ability from a character. Does not include Devil Fruit abilities]

[Inheritance target: Issho]

[Paramecia Press-Press Fruit ability: Awakened]

[Observation Haki: SS+ Grade]

[Armament Haki: SS Grade]

[Physical Arts: S+ Grade]

[Swordsmanship: S+ Grade]

[Basic: Stamina, Endurance, Defense: SS Grade]

[Overall Attack Power: SS Grade]

[Overall Defense Power: SS Grade]

Looking at the status panel of Fujitora Issho, the future Marine Headquarters admiral, Luo Chen could not help sighing. As expected of a future Marine Headquarters admiral.

He truly was formidable. Whether in defense or attack, combined with the Press-Press Fruit, he had already reached Yonko-Admiral Tier attack power.

In terms of the boost a Devil Fruit provided to attack power, the Press-Press Fruit surpassed the Float-Float Fruit.

However, in terms of practicality, the Float-Float Fruit surpassed the Press-Press Fruit.

Each had its advantages and disadvantages, each with its own strengths.

Since he could not copy Devil Fruit abilities, the highest-rated ability among them was Observation Haki.

Issho's Observation Haki had reached an astonishing SS+ Grade.

That was utterly ridiculous. SS+ Grade already belonged to the top tier among Yonko-Admiral Tier fighters.

In the end, Issho was simply a monster.

[System, copy Issho's Observation Haki for me.]

[Received, Host.]

As the system began operating at high speed, Issho's Observation Haki energy continuously flowed into Luo Chen's body.

Issho's Observation Haki suddenly sensed a certain change in the other party's aura, which left him quite puzzled.

[Host: Luo Chen]

[Float-Float Fruit ability: Awakened]

[Observation Haki: SS+ Grade]

[Armament Haki: C Grade]

[Conqueror's Haki: S Grade]

[Physical Arts: B Grade]

[Swordsmanship: SS Grade]

[Basic: Stamina, Endurance, Defense: B Grade]

[Overall Attack Power: S+ Grade]

[Overall Defense Power: B+ Grade]

The explosive rise in Observation Haki also raised Luo Chen's Physical Arts, stamina, endurance, defense, and overall defense by half a grade.

Physical Arts rose from C+ Grade to B Grade.

Stamina, endurance, and defense rose from C+ Grade to B Grade.

Overall defense rose from B Grade to B+ Grade.

As for his overall attack power, if he wanted to raise it to Yonko-Admiral Tier, he would likely need to improve his Armament Haki.

Otherwise, he would have to greatly improve his swordsmanship. Without that, it would be difficult for his overall attack power to reach SS Grade, the Yonko-Admiral Tier.

However, the explosive increase in Observation Haki meant Luo Chen's actual combat ability could not be judged solely by the status panel.

His evasion and detection abilities had both reached an exceptional level.

At this moment, Issho voiced the doubt in his heart. "Sir, your aura changed just now."

"It gave me an inexplicably familiar feeling. How truly strange!!"

Luo Chen was not surprised by this. After all, SS+ Grade Observation Haki possessed truly astonishing sensory abilities.

Only after copying Issho's Observation Haki did Luo Chen understand this point.
