"Thank you, Instructor Zeff. I believe your guidance can make up for what I'm missing from Mr. Garp!" Luo Yu replied, adjusting his gold-rimmed glasses.
Over the past year, Luo Yu had indeed sought Garp's advice on how to awaken Two-Colored Haki, and had already accumulated a lot of experience.
However, compared to Zeff, who had been teaching new recruits for decades, Garp's teaching experience probably wasn't as systematic or detailed.
To avoid a complete failure after using the Beginner Insight Talisman, and thus losing face, Luo Yu decided to play it safe with Zeff.
Also, if he could reach the rank of Admiral quickly, Luo Yu didn't want to wait.
After all, an Admiral's salary started at a minimum of five million Beli!
If his small goal was one hundred million, he could achieve it in just over a year!
"Luo Yu, you little rascal!" Garp glared, then promptly swallowed a Senbei, saying, "But, compared to Zeff, my teaching methods are indeed a bit lacking."
"Perhaps you can find some inspiration from Zeff."
"Of course, even if you really awaken Haki in the end, it's still because I laid the groundwork for you… Haha!"
Akainu's expression turned cold, and he stopped his forward steps, saying.
"Newcomer, I thought you were a smart person. Now it seems I overestimated you."
"However, if you want to make a fool of yourself, then I'll watch until the end, and see what kind of tricks you can pull!"
The deep voice fell, and the words added several points of coldness.
It also shrouded the square in an invisible sense of pressure.
All eyes instantly turned to Luo Yu.
Some of the older admirals couldn't help but shake their heads.
They were veterans, and they knew the difficulty of mastering Two-Colored Haki very well.
Luo Yu's request now felt like he was courting disaster by showing off.
"Sigh!" Sengoku sighed softly. As the Fleet Admiral of the Navy, he didn't want to see Luo Yu, a future admiral, be ruined.
However, seeing Luo Yu's determined expression, he nodded to Zefa.
Zeff also sighed, and said, "Luo Yu, watch closely."
"Every person's body contains Qi. When a person can sense the existence of Qi, they can use it to mobilize themselves."
"The emergence of the Six Powers of the Navy can be seen as a simplification of Haki. When you master the Six Powers and sense the *Qi* within your body, you can more easily come into contact with the existence of Haki."
"Among them, Observation Haki releases *Qi* to perceive the 'breathing' of everything around you, while Armament Haki is to mobilize and entwine the *Qi*, condensing it to create methods like hardening defense…"
A series of explanations and demonstrations flowed from Zeff's hands in a smooth, natural manner.
As a chief instructor who had taught for decades, Zeff clearly lived up to his title.
Even the tens of thousands of Navy soldiers and generals gathered in the square listened with rapt attention.
Luo Yu, upon hearing this, found a problem that had troubled him for a long time suddenly resolved.
Compared to Garp's hands-on style of teaching, Zeff's theory was clearly complementary.
However, Luo Yu clearly overestimated himself.
Facing Zeff's series of explanations, progressing from simple to complex, Luo Yu still felt like he was missing that final push.
It was a bottleneck!
It seemed that without a cheat, being an ordinary person was really damn hard.
"System, immediately use the Beginner Insight Talisman!"
"Ding! Congratulations to the host, the Beginner Insight Talisman has been successfully used."
The system prompt sounded.
Luo Yu's head emitted a buzzing sound. The previous dizziness and the inability to grasp the concepts instantly vanished. He felt a clarity he'd never experienced before.
The final push that had been bothering him in his mind...
Now, there was a sudden feeling of breaking through.
Everything was so simple and easy to understand.
"Luo Yu, I've finished the basic explanation of the Two-Colored Haki. Actually, you really don't need to worry. Your research on the Six Powers has already reached the level of mastery, you're just lacking an opportunity…" Zeff looked at Luo Yu, who was deep in thought, and couldn't help but try to persuade him again.
The tens of thousands of people present also snapped back to their senses from their own thoughts.
Zeff's explanation was indeed excellent, making people gain understanding every time they heard it.
But to awaken Two-Colored Haki just from a single explanation…
Looking at the tens of thousands of people in the field, was there really anyone who could do it?
"General Instructor or Chief Instructor Zeff, thank you for your explanation, but I think I have already learned Two-Colored Haki!" Luo Yu raised his gold-rimmed glasses and said.
He wasn't nearsighted, of course. He just wore glasses to remind himself that he was a working stiff, and that he needed to earn money.
Over time, it had become a habit.
The vast plaza fell silent.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
They had just been marveling that no one could awaken Two-Colored Haki after just one explanation.
Now, Luo Yu had spoken, and told them he'd already learned it?
Had he really learned it?
Or was he really taking them for fools, making a joke like this in front of everyone?
"Luo Yu, now is not the time for jokes. It doesn't really matter if you haven't awakened Two-Colored Haki!" Zeff came back to his senses and hastily explained.
"Hmph, Teacher Zeff, there's no need for you to explain. Originally, I just wanted this brat to back down, but since he refuses a toast only to drink a forfeit, then don't blame me for taking action and personally testing if he has truly awakened Haki!"
Akainu snorted coldly, and a low, rumbling explosion sounded beneath his feet.
**Boom!**
A wave of scorching air instantly surged outward from Akainu as the center.
The magma flowing over his body directly assimilated the ground.
This sudden turn of events caused everyone's faces to change drastically.
Zeff and Garp immediately spoke up.
"Luo Yu, watch out!"
**BOOM!**
Fiery magma columns erupted from the earth beneath Luo Yu's feet.
The speed was so fast, it felt like a bolt of lightning.
However, as the magma spewed forth, Luo Yu, standing on the ground, seemed to know everything in advance.
With a slight shift of his body, he brushed past the magma columns.
This scene made everyone's pupils shrink instantly.
If it had been a one-time coincidence, then what appeared before their eyes next, the second, third, fourth, and even the dozens of times after that…
Could there possibly be so many coincidences in this world?
Watching Luo Yu stroll through the dense, magma pillars erupting like a frantic game of Whac-A-Mole.
An extremely absurd thought rapidly surfaced in his mind.
*He didn't actually learn Two-Colored Haki just by hearing it once, did he?*
If all of this was true...
Wouldn't that be a little too shocking?
Unless you saw it with your own eyes, who would believe it!
