Although Ace was hit by Luffy and Li Yan in turn.

but...

Although he has been in the Eighteenth Branch for a few days, he is still exercising his body in the gravity room and practicing the Sixth Form of the Navy.

However, after listening to the people around him and Instructor Sol, he naturally understands what kind of power is domineering.

Therefore, although he was hit hard at this moment, he also admitted that Li Yan was right.

If the physique and physical skills are too poor, naturally the first half of the great route will be fine, but in the new world where domineering pirates will crawl all over the ground, it really won't work.

Just when Li Yan was chatting with Robin and Ace was thinking seriously.

Luffy had already raised his fist and smashed it towards Korokdal.

Didn't use any, just a normal punch.

A look of disdain appeared on Crocodile's face, but when he saw that Luffy's fist was gradually covered by a layer of black matter, he finally remembered something...

It's too late!

next moment...

Bang!

Being hit on the face by a black fist, the elementalization did not provide any help at all, and the whole person flew out like this.

"Is this guy so brave?"

"Hey, you don't seem to be like this before?"

Hearing Ace's exclamation, Li Yan rolled his eyes and spit out mercilessly.

This guy forgot how he was beaten by Luffy before?

Relying on the nature system, facing Luffy's attack, he did not dodge or dodge, and then he was directly beaten into a pig's head!

Hearing this, Ace also remembered his previous misery, and scratched his head in embarrassment.

dozens of meters away.

Crocodile struggled to sit up and shook his head.

He knew this power. After all, Lao Sha entered the new world when he was young, and he also challenged the white beard.

Although he is not domineering, he also knows this power.

It's just that he didn't expect this kind of power to appear in...

On a sailor who is less than twenty years old.

Well, no wonder at this age to be a captain in the navy.

However, even with this power, don't try to defeat yourself easily.

Lao Tzu is Qiwuhai!

Luffy punched him with a normal punch, and the furious Crocodile pressed his right hand to the ground.

"Erosed Samsara!"

"Moonstep!"

Crocodile's signature skill, a wide-ranging deserted field.

Realizing that the surrounding ground and rocks and other objects were beginning to sand, and even the water in his body was gradually losing, Luffy left the ground with a moon step.

Since the erosion cycle only hits what Crocodile's right hand touches, and the rest of the things connected to it, it doesn't work for Luffy who leaves the ground.

but...

For Crocodile, even if the attack of eroding reincarnation is dodged, this move can be used to catalyze another of his long-range skills.

"Desert Sword!"

The whole ground and other things on the ground have turned into sand at this moment.

With enough sand, Crocodile can use more skills.

The desert sword is an enhanced version of the desert island, and it is also the strongest means of long-range attack by Crocodile.

However, what Crocodile released was not a sword energy, but a sharp blade made of sand, like a sword.

The speed was extremely fast, and the attack came to Luffy in the blink of an eye.

"Luffy, be careful!"

Seeing this scene, Ace immediately became anxious.

However...

"Armed color, cover!"

His hands were dyed thick black, and they were crossed in front of him.

next moment.

The sharp blade turned from sand had already slammed into it fiercely, and the contact between the two sides even spawned a shock wave that continued to spread around.

To say, this is indeed the trick Lao Sha used to attack Akainu in the original book. Even though Luffy's armament has almost reached an intermediate level, he was still cut a little and left on his arms. A not too deep wound.

tick tock...

Blood continued to flow down the wound, but Luffy didn't seem to feel that he was hurt, and he still had a heartless expression on his face.

Seeing this scene, Li Yan couldn't help sighing.

As expected of being beaten up by Garp, an injury of this magnitude may be like a fall to an ordinary person and a slight scratch to Luffy's skin.

"This move is really powerful, more powerful than the guys I've beaten before!"

Shaking his hands, he felt that there was nothing serious, and while talking, Luffy assumed a second-gear stance.

Spread your legs to the sides, support your left knee with your left hand, and put your right hand on the ground with a fist.

Li Yan wanted to complain about this situation.

Just like in a certain blockbuster I watched before crossing the road, my sister said to my sister, do you have to do this before every battle?

"Second gear!"

With a low drink, Luffy's entire body's skin turned red due to the high temperature, and steam emanated from his body.

Well, according to Li Yan, that is...

Luffy started cheating again by taking stimulants.

"Let's start the second round!"

"Armed Color!"

"Rubber Fire Fist!"

Originally because of his proud trick, Jingjing only brought some minor injuries to the opponent, and Crocodile was already very jealous of Luffy.

Seeing Luffy attacking again at this moment, his nerves immediately became tense.

"fire?"

Looking at Luffy whose entire right arm was wrapped in flames, Crocodile was a little surprised for a while.

Isn't this guy's Devil Fruit superhuman rubber?

How could it be set on fire?

However, as long as it is not the kind of power called domineering, I am not afraid!

In the distance, Ace, who was watching the battle, was also a little confused.

"fire punch?"

"Isn't this my trick to burn the fruit, why Luffy..."

It's almost a question of life, isn't it?

Could it be that Luffy's rubber fruit has elemental abilities?

Or, that's not a rubber fruit at all, but some other fruit disguised as a rubber fruit?

"Ace, look carefully, and then understand a sentence!"

"What?"

"knowledge is power!"

"..."

His face was stunned, and he had no idea what Li Yan meant.

However, Robin on the side reacted somewhat.

"Lord Lieutenant General, isn't this the flame caused by the use of high-speed friction space?"

"Look, Ace, this is the benefit of knowledge, learn from Robin!"

"However, how did Luffy endure such high temperature? After all, he is not a natural ability like Ace. It stands to reason that he should not be able to withstand the high temperature caused by the flame package, right?"

Although Robin saw the trick of this trick, there was still something he couldn't understand.

"Because of the armed color!"

"Armed color... I understand, Luffy first activated the armed color, and then the ability of the rubber fruit extends his arm back at the limit speed, causing high-speed friction to the air and causing flames, so that As a result, with the protection of the armed color, you will not be burned by the flames!"

"Smart, that's it!"

Nodding, Li Yan praised.

Devil fruit is all about knowledge. Like Ace, if you can't wake up...

Then he can only develop the basic tricks of burning the fruit, just like Anilu doesn't know how to generate electricity and generate heat.

Of course, Luffy doesn't understand either.

But he doesn't understand, Li Yan understands.

Therefore, under the guidance of Li Yan, Luffy has now mastered this trick. In the original book, after Ace died, it was born to commemorate Ace.

After listening to the conversation between Li Yan and Robin, Ace repeated in his heart what Li Yan said to him just now.

Knowledge...

is power?
