Gazing at Uta, who was also engulfed in demonic flames below Tot Musica, Xia Chen narrowed his eyes and murmured softly:

Is this being controlled?

It's no wonder Xia Chen had such thoughts, because Uta was now not only engulfed in demonic flames, but also had no human emotions in his eyes, making him seem like a puppet.

Meanwhile, in the real world...

On the Thousand Sunny, Xia Chen looked around and saw Tot Musica, exactly like the one in the Sing-Sing World, rising up from Uta below, exuding the same overwhelming demonic energy.

It looks exactly the same as in the Sing-Sing World.

"Why did Tot Musica appear on its own when there was no summoning song being sung?"

Xia Chen from both worlds murmured softly at the same time.

"That's because my power has evolved!"

A deep, resonant sound rang out, causing a look of surprise to appear on Xia Chen's face. He looked up and saw Tot Musica staring at him with a hint of mockery on his lips.

"Was that you speaking?"

Xia Chen, from the Sing-Sing World, looked at Tot Musica before him and asked a question.

"Who else could it be but me, you lowly human!"

Upon hearing this, Xia Chen's eyes narrowed, revealing a hint of ferocity.

Without the slightest hesitation, Xia Chen's figure vanished from the spot in an instant, and when he reappeared, he was already in front of Tot Musica.

He threw a punch at him hard.

Tot Musica, seeing this, couldn't help but scoff.

"It seems that you, human, are not only lowly, but also incredibly stupid!"

"Since you know my name, don't you know that you can only harm me by attacking me in two worlds simultaneously?"

"Simply existing in one world, no matter how strong you are, you cannot..."

"Bang!"

A dull thud followed, and before Tot Musica could finish speaking, Xia Chen delivered a powerful punch to his body.

The immense force instantly dented Tot Musica's chest, and its massive body was also swept backward by the powerful impact.

It slammed heavily onto the stands behind it, creating a huge crater.

Xia Chen stood calmly in place, brushed off imaginary dust from his clothes, and said indifferently:

Why do you have to pretend like that?

This sudden scene left Gordon, who was standing to the side, stunned, staring at Xia Chen in disbelief.

"You, you..."

"This... how is this possible?"

Gordon stammered, unable to believe what he was seeing.

"How were you able to attack Tot Musica? That doesn't make sense!"

Gordon continued to shake his head in disbelief, repeating words like "impossible."

"It's certainly unscientific, but it's my physics!"

Xia Chen said calmly.

" Xia Chen, what's going on with you? Didn't you say before that Tot Musica has to attack in both worlds simultaneously, otherwise it won't be effective?"

"What's going on now? Were you lying to us before?"

Luffy then ran over and asked Xia Chen, while the others jumped down from the stands and came to Xia Chen's side, looking at him curiously and waiting for his answer.

"Yes! I wasn't wrong before!"

"But this restriction only applies to you. For you, you do need to attack in both worlds simultaneously to have any effect on Tot Musica, but I'm different!"

I can live in any world!

Xia Chen's tone was indifferent, but it was full of arrogance.

Everyone:...

"Hey! Xia Chen, what do you mean?"

"I'm one of the Four Emperors now, okay? Am I not strong enough?"

Luffy said, somewhat unconvinced.

It was one thing for Xia Chen to say he was no good when he was weak, but now that he's one of the Four Emperors, how can he still say he's no good?

What, does a Four Emperors) have no dignity?

"You?"

Xia Chen glanced at Luffy indifferently, then shook his head and said casually:

" Luffy, do you think you're strong just because you've become Four Emperors?"

To be honest, you still have a long way to go!

"Take Kaido for example. If he had used his full strength back then, you wouldn't have been a match for him at all!"

"Admittedly, your current strength is enough to secure you a place in the world, but if you want to be like me? You're still a hundred thousand years too early!"

Hearing Luffy was still a little unconvinced. Just as he was about to say something, he saw Xia Chen slightly raise his hand.

The next second, a golden light emanated from his hand.

For a moment, everyone present felt as if a huge rock was pressing on their chest, and their bodies became heavier.

"What... what is this?"

Zoro asked, his face filled with horror.

" God-Level Haki!"

Xia Chen answered calmly, then looked at Luffy.

" Luffy, do you feel like you've reached a bottleneck in Three Types of Haki, and that your improvement is very slow?"

Yes! That's right!

Luffy nodded subconsciously.

"That's because your Haki is currently in the bottleneck period of breaking through to the King-Level Haki, and the King-Level Haki is not so easy to break through!"

"Your strength has indeed improved rapidly during this period, and your Haki has reached the Peak Advanced Level stage in a short time!"

"But this also leads to a problem: your foundation is too weak, making it much more difficult to break through to the King-Level Haki!"

"That's why you feel that your Haki hasn't improved much, and it's hard to make any progress!"

"To solve this problem, you need to experience more battles, hone your skills in battle, and refine them. Only then can you break through to the King Level with your Three Types of Haki!"

"So what you're doing now is King-Level Haki?"

Sanji looked at the golden light in Xia Chen's hand and asked.

"Of course not!"

Xia Chen shook his head.

"What a joke! King-Level Haki doesn't have this kind of oppressive power!"

"This is far King-Level Haki... God-Level Haki!"

" God Level... Haki?"

The crowd murmured in unison, processing the information conveyed by that word.

"This is the ultimate form of Haki. Only by cultivating Three Types of Haki to the Peak King Level can one have even the slightest chance of achieving Haki!"

"Its power is extremely strong, and I was only able to damage Tot Musica because I used God-Level Haki!"

"It's no exaggeration to say that if I wanted to, I could immediately shatter this Sing-Sing World with God-Level Haki and bring everyone back to reality!"

That's why I've never been worried!

"How is this possible? How do you possess this power?"

"That's impossible!"

At this moment, Tot Musica, who had been blasted away by Xia Chen, slowly straightened up and screamed.

The contempt in his eyes when he looked at Xia Chen was completely gone, replaced by boundless fear...
