One Piece: Who still has dreams?

However, the pressure isn't enough for me to fully master Armament Haki...

With that thought in mind, Redio swung the muscular soldier and whipped away the surrounding clones layer by layer.

A giant axe descended from the sky, shoving aside hundreds or even thousands of muscular soldiers as if shoveling sand on a beach.

While fiddling with it, Gertz apologized, "I'm sorry, we didn't mean to do that..."

"It's very impolite to cause trouble in someone else's home!"

A green figure suddenly descended from the sky, landing heavily in front of Redio with a thud, cracking the ground beneath its feet. The clone soldiers, who had been swept away and were in a sorry state by Redio, exclaimed, "It's Lord Yonji!" "That's great..."

"Upon closer inspection, I realized she's such a beautiful giant lady!" Shiji looked up at Gertz, his eyes sparkling with hearts.

Gertz: "..." Suddenly, the watch on his wrist vibrated.

She clicked on it and saw that the section on "Find the Secret of Germa 66" was checked, indicating that it was already completed.

"Where should we look?"

Redio's fist slammed into the face of Shiji, who was facing Gertz with hearts in his eyes.

It's like punching a steel plate.

This person's face, flesh, and even his entire body seemed to be cast from fine steel.

boom!

Shiji stood still, his head tilting back slightly from the blow, but he was unharmed. He looked at Redio and said coldly, "Want to compete in strength? You've picked the wrong person."

He gave Redio a gentle push, and Redio flew out like a cannonball, crashing into a large group of sunglasses-wearing muscle replicant soldiers.

"I'm a bowling ball now..." Reddio thought, flipping in the air, stomping hard on someone's face (whose face he didn't even know), and then punching back.

Along the way, he activated his Observation Haki, which he had already mastered, in an attempt to predict Shiji's movements. However, no matter how he tried to predict, the result was the same: the opponent stood still, completely motionless.

Looks like you're under a lot of pressure!

Reddio gritted his teeth and smiled, Armament Haki surging from his fist as he once again swung it at the arrogant-looking Shiji.

……

Meanwhile, in the secret research facility of the main castle of the Germa Kingdom…

"...blood...bloodline factor..."

A scientist in a white lab coat was held by the neck in Stussy's hand. Stussy bared her sharp fangs, and her eyes shone with an eerie light. Under her gaze, the scientist, as if in a daze, slowly revealed his secret.

Chapter 79 Dao Power Value

[Chapter Introduction Series: Executive Vice President Miss Quan, Sunday, 28th: ​​"Please Help Me Interpret These Materials"]

[Upon learning that he was the last survivor of Ohara, many Revolutionary Army soldiers gathered to watch, while several civilian staff members, carrying a pile of ancient books and restoration materials, eagerly sought out Robin's files to consult.]

*******************************************************

"So this is Germa's secret..."

Stussy casually tossed the scientist to the ground, her sharp canine teeth disappearing as she muttered to herself. At her feet lay all the scientists in this secret research institute, already interrogated by her.

Nami, meanwhile, was looking at something even more conspicuous than the scientists in the research institute... a "person".

In the center of the research institute, rows of cylindrical containers filled with a special solution were placed on the four walls. These containers contained "cloned humans" who looked exactly like the muscular men in sunglasses outside!

Upon closer inspection, it can be seen that there are roughly three different types of clones with different appearances and body shapes.

"..."

Nami suppressed her shock and glanced at Stussy, who had just finished interrogating the scientists. She wondered what this blonde woman did for a living. After following her in, Nami watched as the woman circled the castle twice, seemingly having thoroughly grasped its layout, and quickly led her here.

It's likely that the Kingdom of Germa never imagined that outsiders would invade the main castle, so the entrance to this room, which looks like a bank vault, wasn't hidden in a very secret place.

Stussy did something at the door, and soon the door to the "vault" opened, revealing a room full of clones that deeply shocked Nami.

Seeing those living, breathing clone soldiers outside is one thing, but seeing these unborn, mass-produced culture medium cans like commodities is quite another.

Stussy subdued the scientists in the research institute with incredible speed. While it was described as incredible speed, Nami found herself able to seemingly see her movements clearly…

During Stussy's interrogation of the scientists, their watches all vibrated. After checking the information, Nami asked curiously, "Didn't you say that Germa's clone army wasn't exactly a secret?"

Her attention was focused on the wall of clone cans, and she didn't hear carefully what Stussy had interrogated her about.

Tap, tap, tap... Stussy walked to Nami's side in her high heels, looked up at the clones in the culture medium jars, and said softly, "I can only say that Germa has gone further than we thought in the research of lineage factors... If Dr. Vegapunk knew, he would also be unable to help but applaud."

"Dr. Vegapunk?" Nami asked, puzzled.

"Don't you recognize her?" Stussy wondered. Just then, a cold voice came from behind: "Hey, what are you doing causing trouble in someone else's house?"

Nami quickly turned around and saw a blue-haired young man wearing goggles standing at the open entrance of the "vault." He had an exaggerated pompadour hairstyle, wore an aristocratic white shirt, and had electric arcs dancing on his hands. He coldly said, "Such beautiful women, it's a pity they're going to die here."

"It looks just like Reiju's style..." Nami thought, putting down the clouds.

Tap, tap, tap… Stussy, in her high heels, walked towards Niji, the blue-haired man with the pompadour. Niji swayed slightly, and Nami's gaze swept around the room before landing on Stussy's back. She exclaimed in surprise, "Watch out!"

“Six Styles of Playing Techniques…” Stussy didn’t turn around, but simply pointed her ten fingers together, making a gesture, and let Erzhi dart around behind her, delivering a heavy knee strike to her back.

But she seemed to transform into a light, floating balloon, effortlessly bouncing away and landing gracefully at the doorway. She lowered her hand gestures and exclaimed in surprise, "5000 Dao power points! Without eating a Zoan-type Devil Fruit, this is an impossible number for a human to reach..."

"..." Niji's attack was ineffective, and he showed no emotion. He just looked at the calm Stussy and said, "Who exactly are you people? Germa is a member state of the World Government. I can call the Navy to arrest you at any time."

Stussy said, "Who I am depends on your performance."

She raised her hand and pointed, unleashing a sharp shockwave that struck Erzhi's forehead with a "bang," like an invisible bullet. The latter merely took half a step back, lowering his head without a scratch.

Is this their exoskeleton? Stussy could sense that the other party didn't have any martial arts techniques similar to iron blocks, nor did they use Armament Haki... She glanced at Nami and chuckled, "Leave this to me."

"Woman, you have a big mouth."

Niji coldly said, "Do you think she can escape?" He flashed and reached out to grab Nami, who was watching the commotion from the side.

Nami felt nervous and instinctively swung her three-section staff made of sea stone.

Bang! Erzhi caught it steadily, secretly surprised. This woman didn't look that strong, so how could she have such strength... Suddenly, a huge force came from the three-section staff, which pulled him away and sent him flying. He crashed heavily into the wall of the research institute, creating a large human-shaped crater in the copper and iron wall.

"I thought he was much stronger." Nami breathed a sigh of relief. Putting aside fighting skills, it seemed that she still had the upper hand in terms of sheer strength.

"..." Erzhi, his body crackling with electricity, said from inside the steel wall pit, "You've really angered me."

A flash of lightning! He charged toward Nami.

Nami burst into tears and dodged to the side, miraculously avoiding the attack in time. Even Stusi was astonished, let alone Niji. Nami desperately tried to recall Redio's movements, and her agility in dodging Niji's lightning-fast attacks grew increasingly impressive.

"..."

Niji became increasingly silent as the fight progressed. Suddenly, he leaped high into the air, his feet crackling with intense lightning, and slammed heavily down towards Stussy, creating a charred crater in the steel floor with a deafening boom.

*Snap! Snap! Snap!* Stussy moved through the air in quick succession, leaving Nami astonished: "You can fly?!"

Stussy chuckled softly and said to the indifferent-looking Niji on the ground, "You're not a Mink Tribe hybrid, are you? Yet you can use electricity with your 'physical body'..."

She landed lightly and was about to reveal her identity as a CP0 agent when she saw the blue-haired boy with a pompadour take out a metal can with the number 2 written on it and put it on the buckle of his belt.

……

Blood splattered!

Redio's right fist collided heavily with Shiji's fist, causing his muscles to become extremely congested with blood, his skin to crack, and spurts of blood as he flew backward.

"..." Shiji was speechless. "Are you out of your mind? You know you're no match for me in strength, yet you keep trying to fight me like this?"

"Phew! That's precisely why we have to keep fighting, what's the problem?"

Reddio's right arm hung limply beside him, covered in blood. He looked up at Gertz and said, "Are you a doctor? Help me amputate this arm."

"..." Before Gertz could even wonder how he knew he was a doctor, he took the giant axe and aimed it at Redio's already crippled right arm. After hesitating for a few moments, he finally severed Redio's right arm and quickly tore off a few strands of his own long hair to tightly bind Redio's severed arm to stop the bleeding.

“I’m more interested in this female giant,” Shiji said, pointing at Gertz. “You come and fight me.”

"The final punch is coming, are you ready?"

Redio charged up his left fist, banishing the distracting thought that kept flashing through his mind: "Use Gojo Satoru Mode! If I just use Gojo Satoru Mode, I can easily crush these lousy fish!"

Armament Haki, the feeling of it enveloping...

His eyes were almost vacant, his attention was extremely focused, he had entered a state of flow, and all he could see was the green-haired Shiji, the superhuman with super strength who looked completely indifferent, and then he rushed over.

"Boring." Shiji casually waved his hand, and a group of muscular clones rushed over from the left and right to form a human wall in front of him, while he walked straight toward Gertz.

With a whoosh, Redio silently bypassed the wall of clones, his left fist anticipating the movement of the four behind the wall and striking him precisely in the cheek.

In that instant, a layer of black silently stained Redio's blood-stained fist...

Black Haki swiftly covered his left fist and wrapped around his left arm. The muscles and bones, which had been fragile under the shock of the terrifying force, were hardened by this Armament Haki, and their strength was increased dramatically.

His arm bones, dyed black like steel, pulled at muscles that looked like black steel wires, unleashing a terrifying brute force several times, even ten times, greater than Redio's previous strength.

Surprise flashed in Shiji's eyes, his cheekbones gradually wrinkling and tilting under the black fist...

boom! ! !

A burst of black lightning struck, and he was sent flying by a punch.
