"Clang—!" In yet another sword clash, Borsalino immediately used Armament Haki to repel Kuina, then came to Garp's side.
"Mr. Garp, are you alright?" Borsalino asked with a worried expression, but at the same time, he was shocked that Luna could block Mr. Garp's full-power attack, which used both Armament Haki and Haoshoku, with just two fingers.
And afterward, she grasped the timing of the battle perfectly, directly hitting Mr. Garp's chest and sending him flying.
But such a feat was accomplished by a 17-year-old Little girl, which filled him with shock and disbelief.
However, at this moment, Borsalino was more concerned about Garp.
"Hahaha, I'm fine, Borsalino. I won't fall or get hurt just from one punch from a Little girl." Garp, who immediately stood up like a tall pine tree, laughed heartily, looking like he was still in very good condition.
But thinking about it, it made sense. Although he was old, he was still the Navy's hero Vice Admiral, Iron Fist Garp.
Hearing this, the Navy side, as well as the Marines watching the live broadcast, all breathed a sigh of relief, including Luffy and Dragon.
On the pirates' side, it was basically a chorus of curses, saying that the old man was really tough.
But the next words Garp spoke were no less than a magnitude 12 earthquake for the entire Pirate World.
"But what's hard to believe is that this girl's Armament Haki has developed to a realm that even I haven't achieved."
Garp said immediately with a bitter smile.
Rumble!!!
However, everyone present and watching the live broadcast was basically stunned, their faces full of disbelief.
Because his words were tantamount to telling the whole world that he admitted it.
Luna's Armament Haki realm had already surpassed Garp's.
But how was this possible? Garp's Armament Haki was basically recognized as the strongest in the world.
Even many top-tier veteran powerhouses had to admit that even Pirate King Roger and the sea overlord Rocks back then couldn't compare to Garp in terms of Armament Haki.
But now, he was surpassed by a 17-year-old Little girl. Even though he was old now and not at his peak, many people were unwilling to admit it, especially the Navy.
The Three Admirals were stunned, and Crane and Sengoku's eyes were somewhat hollow. And in Mary Geoise, the former Fleet Admiral, current Commander-in-Chief of the Three Forces, Steel Bone Kong, his expression was as ugly as if he had eaten that stuff. The Gorosei were all silent, wondering what they were thinking.
"She actually surpassed the old man." In the White Soil Land, Dragon's face was also full of disbelief.
There was no need to mention the pirates; they were shocked and disbelieving, but no matter what, Luna, who had now arrived on the ice, undoubtedly became the focus of the entire scene.
Under the gaze of thousands of eyes, Luna, with her picturesque, elegant, and noble demeanor, extended her finger, which was like a piece of white jade, lightly stroked her golden hair, and said with a confident and teasing expression:
"It's no wonder you're known as a Navy hero; you really do have some insight."
After she finished speaking, she was also willing to show it off. So, to the astonished eyes of many, a black short sword, formed by Armament Haki, quickly appeared on Luna's hand.
"This...how is this possible? How can Armament Haki condense into a weapon?"
Borsalino said with a look of horror, voicing the question of many people.
Even the Three Admirals of the Navy on the warship and the Pink Hat Pirates were astonished.
Even The Girls couldn't have imagined it. Luna had actually cultivated Armament Haki to some supreme realm. Of course, not all of The Girls, the otherworldly companions, all twitched their mouths.
They really wanted to blurt out, "Do you understand what a cheat is?"
"If I'm not mistaken, this should be the legendary Armament Hardening. I really didn't expect you, a Little girl, to cultivate it."
