Unable to find them in the West Blue, the pursuing army returned to the Grand Line to continue the search. It was the same group of pirates from the West Blue, who were injured once again. However, many pirates who were already on the Grand Line were also implicated.
However, many bounty hunters were also killed by pirates. People also went to search for Vic's hometown, the East Blue. Although it is unknown which island Vic was born on, he was just wandering around the East Blue. However, many people were taught a lesson by Garp, who was on vacation in the East Blue.
The Navy did not reveal Vic's birthplace, but government agents had already gone to Laipe Island to investigate, which was unavoidable.
However, in the past two months, no news of anyone seeing Vic and his group has leaked out, Holy Knights to conclude that Vic and his group are most likely in hiding.
People with that kind of strength are hard to find when they're hiding, but they haven't given up. They usually don't have time to go down to the mortal realm, so this time they can have some more time to play.
Every day, Kizaru would chatter away on the deck of the warship, talking to the Den Den Mushi on his wrist, not at all like he was looking for someone. His adjutant next to him was getting impatient, but Kizaru ignored him and continued to communicate with the Den Den Mushi.
In the New World, apart from Red-Haired Shanks and one veteran pirate crew locked in a fierce battle, the other pirate crews have kept a low profile, fearing they might become the first target Vic would strike to establish his authority upon arriving in the New World.
Of course, Whitebeard, Big Mom, Kaido still do as they please and don't take Vic too seriously. Those who care about Vic want to know about them, but they are also afraid to see any news about them. Right now, no news is the best news!
After two months, Vic's Conqueror's Haki has been released for two months, as if it will continue to be released forever!
Barnett wanted to slap himself twice. What had he said before? His Karasu had come true again. Rebecca and Wendy looked at him with resentful eyes every day, without saying a word, just staring at him.
Barnett was so scared by what he saw that he could only run away to the deck to train with the gravity bracelet. The others did the same. Apart from glancing at Vic every day, they spent all their spare time training. Regardless of whether Vic woke up or when he woke up, they all needed to become stronger!
"Huh! Something feels different! What's this? Vic's Conqueror's Haki has disappeared?"
After Barnett finished practicing Armament Haki, he sat cross-legged and practiced Observation Haki. However, not long after, he felt something was different. Upon closer inspection, he realized that the Conqueror's Haki that he had become accustomed to over the past two months had disappeared.
"Gone! Really gone! It must be Vic waking up! Vic!"
Rebecca heard Barnett's words and remembered what he had said before. An excited smile appeared on her face, and she dashed towards the cabin. The others also thought of this and turned off their gravity bracelets to follow her.
When Rebecca entered Vic's bedroom in the ship's cabin, she saw Vic sitting on the bed, the blanket pulled back to the foot of the bed, Vic staring intently at his raised right fist.
Black and red Inazuma crackled and swirled around her fist. She could feel an immense pressure and a tremor ran through her. Rebecca thought this was Vic's newly developed lightning ability.
But she was quickly drawn to the awakened Vic. After waiting for two months, Vic finally woke up. Seeing the figure who had finally opened his eyes, she shed tears of joy and excitement!
However, seeing that Vic seemed to be thinking about something, she covered her mouth to suppress her sobs and did not disturb Vic.
"This is Conqueror's Haki Coating! It's similar to Mind Power Coating Entanglement. Mastering Conqueror's Haki naturally leads to mastering Conqueror's Coating. The increase in mental power from the Mystery Fruit is truly remarkable!"
Vic stared at the black and red Inazuma crackling around his fist and muttered to himself. Since waking up, he had perfectly mastered Conqueror's Haki, able to precisely avoid those he didn't want to intimidate, just like Dark King Rayleigh!
This is something that requires a period of training after Awakening Conqueror's Haki, but Vic was able to do it as soon as he woke up. He attributed all the credit to the Mystery Fruit and the original soul of the body.
Furthermore, he tried to contract his Conqueror's Haki. The powerful Conqueror's Haki was completely under his control. The Conqueror's Haki was originally evenly distributed on the outside, was directly concentrated and compressed into his fist. The Conqueror's Haki, which could only have a deterrent effect, was compressed together and thus caused substantial damage.
Just like the Kuma's Paw-Paw Fruit, which can compress ordinary air to produce immense power, Conqueror's Haki is similar, and it inflicts both physical and mental damage.
The principle seems simple, but it has prerequisites. First, the Conqueror's Haki must be strong enough, and second, the Conqueror's Haki must be perfectly controlled. These two prerequisites are not easy to meet. Moreover, there are not many people who possess Conqueror's Coating 'Conqueror's Haki, and even fewer who can master it.
How long have I been unconscious?
Vic withdrew his Conqueror's Haki and looked at Rebecca and the others, asking them a question. He knew he had fainted, but he didn't know how much time had passed.
His consciousness entered a mysterious space where he saw the original body's soul, still the same size as the body he had when he transmigrated, only the soul figure was tattered and broken, as if it were about to fall apart at any moment!
Two souls, one large and one small, met in the mysterious space of his mind. This was the first time the two souls had met. Previously, Vic could sense that the original body was also influencing this body, which he attributed to the original body's obsession!
It was only when he saw the original body's small soul that he realized his original idea was not entirely correct. The original body's soul did not dissipate with his arrival, nor did it dissipate with the death of the pirates who killed his parents; it simply weakened its influence on the body time and time again!
After hearing Ban say that the Claw Pirates were likely to be wiped out, Vic immediately felt changes in his body. He thought that the original owner's obsession had dissipated at that time, and he could completely control this body. This was one of the reasons why he was able to become stronger so quickly.
It was only when his consciousness saw the original body's soul that he realized the original body had always been there, but it no longer affected his control over the body.
In the mysterious space, Vic learned the reason why he had been unable to Awakening Conqueror's Haki: the existence of the original body's soul prevented him from perfectly controlling this body.
So no matter how hard he tried, it was no use, until the original soul witnessed the actions of the World Government and the true nature of the Navy, and the last remaining obsession of the original soul was completely shattered!
Two equally enraged souls resonated strongly, and the long-suppressed spiritual power finally broke through the barriers and spread out of the body. Vic's Conqueror's Haki finally Awakening!
