Chapter 79
Two figures in the huge circular pit kept flashing.
The party that launches the attack cannot touch the party that dodges, and the result is that all attacks fall into the air.
The ground shook again and again, and the entire circular pit ground became larger, deeper, and more messy under this attack.
After Ron's attack failed again.
"Is this the end of your strength, kid?"
Riley's voice rang in Ron's ears.
His eyes froze, and the transparent world fed back many details into his mind. Without any hesitation, he immediately reached out and clenched his fist to blast to the side.
But the power and speed of that attack increased instantly, beyond his perception.
Just like Garp in Impel Down City, he predicted Ron's movements with a higher level of insight and domineering, and seized the opportunity at a faster speed!
The kick passed under Ron's fist, landed on Ron's abdomen from bottom to top, and kicked him up into the sky.
"cough……"
Ron coughed up a mouthful of bitter water in mid-air, and then fell straight to the ground like a meteorite.
Rayleigh took back his raised foot.
He looked at the figure falling straight down, his eyes under his glasses were quite curious and surprised.
Where did such a young man come from? Why had he never been heard of on the sea before?
Logically speaking, with his strength and age, he should have already become famous...
Looking at the black-haired boy who had been hit by him, he slowly got up from the ground, patted the dust on his body, and looked indifferent.
Riley was a little shocked.
How could a teenage boy have such a physique and such a degree of armed domineering and knowledge-based domineering? !
He couldn't understand.
Because this is too unbelievable and beyond his cognition.
In the past few decades, among the top powerhouses in this sea that he had known and seen, absolutely none of them could reach such a perverted level at the age of the young man in front of him!
Except for the bigmom who is a natural monster...
Could it be that this boy is the same as her?
Are you born with an unusually strong body?
After Ron stood up, he took a deep breath, then kicked off his feet, almost touching the ground, and rushed in front of Rayleigh very quickly.
A punch hit him in the face.
But it stopped in front of Rayleigh's face, and the strong wind of the fist blew Rayleigh's long silver curly hair straight back.
"Aren't you going to fight?"
Ron frowned.
"No fight, old man, I don't have as much energy as you young people."
Reilly looked at Ron in front of him, whose clothes were torn and dusty.
"And I don't plan on getting my clothes dirty and having to wash them myself later."
Rayleigh said, turned around and walked towards the pit where the two of them were.
Although Ron was a bit unsatisfied.
But since Rayleigh didn't plan to continue, he had no choice but to give up.
He dispersed the entangled aura of armed domineering, and followed Rayleigh as he walked out of the pit.
Both men's coats were blown off.
While looking for a coat.
Ron asked Rayleigh in front: "When you fought me just now, Mr. Rayleigh, how much strength did you show? 10%?"
He could feel that Rayleigh's energy and blood were definitely more than twice as high as his current level, and both the armed-color Haki and the knowledge-color Haki were much higher than what he had now.
Although he still has swordsmanship that he has yet to show off, the swordsmanship of Pluto Rayleigh in front of him is probably even better than his own.
As for why he was able to fight with himself several times, it goes without saying that he naturally let go, no, let go.
After hearing his words, Rayleigh's eyes twitched slightly.
10%?
Are you overestimating me or underestimating yourself?
Don’t you know what your own strength is?
The 10% I got when I was at my peak was almost...
Riley didn't know that Ron came to challenge him precisely because he didn't know what he was thinking.
In the last two years of being an intern at Malinfando, he and Garp had met several times and never fought against each other once. Those naval officers never fought against him.
Even the flying squirrel avoided him.
He had fought against that girl Tina several times, but she was still too weak. Ron really couldn't get interested, so he had to control his strength to be similar to hers.
The only official battle he had was with Momotu Gion, a swordsmanship test.
During that competition, an accident occurred...
Rayleigh found his white coat, and when he bent down to pick it up, he asked Ron:
"Boy, who taught you your dominance?"
"Cap."
Rayleigh's eyes narrowed slightly and he looked at him: "So you are Garp's disciple?"
"No, he only taught me how to practice Armed Color Haki because of a condition."
Ron said truthfully.
Riley nodded and said no more.

71. The definition of a pirate and the division of domineering levels (8/8 please subscribe!!)
As Rayleigh rowed a boat to take Ron back to the Shampoo Islands, Rayleigh looked at Ron and said, "What are you going to do next? Since you don't plan to become a navy, do you want to become a pirate?"
"I think I will probably become a traveler around the sea."
Ron said casually with his hands on the back of his head, lying on the boat, eyes closed, enjoying the sea breeze.
"A traveler..."
Rayleigh looked at Ron, whose face was filled with enjoyment, and some memories of the past could not help but appear in his eyes.
When I first went out to sea with that guy named Roger, weren't we like travelers...
After Rayleigh came to his senses, he looked at Ron and smiled: "Whether it is a pirate, an adventurer, or a traveler, they are essentially guys who pursue freedom on this sea."
"But now this sea is not free."
"If you want to pursue freedom, you must break some things that bind this sea."
Ron's heart moved slightly, he opened his eyes and looked at Rayleigh.
"If you want to be a real traveler, you will inevitably become an opponent of those who create this bondage. Whether you want it or not, this is the era now. Not everyone who yearns for freedom will become a pirate, but those who oppose bondage and rules and resist bondage will be called pirates!"
Rayleigh, paddling with both hands, looked at Ron and laughed heartily: "If your goal is really to travel on a truly free sea, then I will wait for the day when you become famous on the sea on the island of Sabaody."
…………
After returning to the Sabaody Archipelago.
In the tavern
Ron and Rayleigh had a drink, and asked him some questions about Haki.
Rayleigh drank the champagne he offered, and answered his questions very straightforwardly.
"In my opinion, Haki, whether it is Armament Haki, Observation Haki, or Conqueror Haki, has almost four stages."
"Your Armament Haki has probably reached the second stage, and Observation Haki is still in the first stage."
"The first stage of Armament Haki is entangled, the second stage is hardened, and to reach the third stage, you must let Haki flow freely in the body. I heard a companion from Wano Country on the ship say that in their country, the power of Haki is called Ryu-sakura."
"I think it's not accurate to call Haki with this name, but it's very appropriate to call the third stage of Haki."
Rayleigh drank and said, "There are not many people in the entire ocean who can reach the Ryu-sakura realm of Armament Haki. As for the fourth stage... only a few people in the entire ocean have reached it."
"Mr. Rayleigh, have you reached the fourth stage?"
Ron asked curiously.
Rayleigh shook his head: "No, but I know someone who has achieved it."
"Who?"
