108. The secrets spilled

108. The secrets spilled

Luffy and others were amazed by this. They didn't expect that such a thing even existed. This was a whole new territory for this.

"So you mean to say that I can only defeat Smokey when I learn this Armament Haki?" Luffy always had a better IQ when it came to fights. All the brain capacity would turn on when there was a fight situations involved.

"Not only Smoker, but also Crocodile. He has Logia Sand-Sand fruit. You will need Haki to defeat him but there is a weakness for him. He can stop his body to elementalise if you attack him with moisture. In other words, if you use punches while your hands are wet, you can beat the shit out of him."

"Really? This is great. Wait for me Crocodile. I will beat the shit out of you."

"So Crocodile has such weakness. Didn't know that." Robin commented.

"I will just beat the shit out of Crocodile.."

"This is totally a new information for me. Haki, huh! Times are getting serious." Sanji lit up a cigarette. He thought with his character alone it would be enough but the world wasn't as simple as he thought.

"I just need to stop Crocodile."

"Alright we know ... Now stop." Zoro gave a smack at the head of Luffy with his hilt. About Observation Haki, he had already known of this as his breathing technique had allowed to learn this quite early.

"There is another type of Haki. This Haki can't be trained and only the few chosen ones have that, only the lucky ones are born with it. It is called Conqueror's Haki. As the name implies, only a conqueror can have that Haki."

"Born with it?"

"Eh? One can't learn it?"

"So weird."

There were discussions and murmurs among the crew. They thought Haki was fundamental but now they came to know that some people are just born lucky.

"I am sorry Sanji, I don't know about you. You are supposed to have one but you reject your own blood in your own fear and get distracted by women too often."

"Bloodline? What is he talking about?"

"What do you mean Ken?"

Sanji stiffened when he heard that. He looked at Ken with wide eyes as he didn't expect Ken to know of the bloodline secret. He had never spoken of this secret to anyone since he came to East Blue but it seemed like Ken knew of it.

"You.. You.. You know of my father?" Sanji was shaking as he asked that. His voice croaked and he gritted his teeth in anger.

"Personally? No. But I have heard of him. Luffy can be dumb enough to invite people but someone needs to make sure that the person who enters the ship are legitimate enough."

"Oye, Ken what are you talking about? Is there something wrong with Sanji?" Luffy was confused and so were the others.

"Then if you knew, why did you let me in?" Sanji clenched his fists. He was ready to leave the crew if he was asked to. He knew his past and he was ready to face the axe for it.

"Your birth doesn't define you. Your actions do. You refuse your own powers just because you hate your father and brothers, just like my brother Ace."

"Why am I being brought here?" Ace shouted. Everyone turned their heads at Ace as they were curious what Ken meant. Ken had been unloading one bombs after another and it was blowing the minds of the people.

First Haki, second was the mysterious family of Sanji and now there was a third one related to Ace.

"You know who your actual father is, but you refuse to acknowledge that and go after his rival."

"Ace's father? Isn't Luffy's father also Ace's father?" Nami asked.

"No. Ace's father was Roger, the Pirate King." Luffy spilled the secrets instantly, Ace got angry at this and started pulling the cheek of Luffy in anger and in retaliation Luffy too pulled Ace's cheek which soon turned into a brawl.

While the brawl continued, everyone in the crew were sweating. Ace was the son of Gol D. Roger. What the hell was up with these brothers?
