Sailing: His comprehension is against the sky, and he comprehends the Eight Gates at the beginning.

"Isn't there a more powerful move? It's just breaking a rock, I can do that with a few more hits!"

Once again being looked down upon by Luffy, Garp got really fired up.

"Hmph! Luffy! I'll show you what the world's top power is like."

Garp arrived at the shore and looked at the boundless sea before him.

Suddenly, he leaped into the air, as if he had vanished from the spot.

"So fast."

Luffy was secretly alarmed.

When he spotted Garp again, the man was already a hundred meters in the air.

Then, an even more powerful energy erupted from Garp's body.

The energy, like a purplish-black lightning bolt, spread outwards from Garp's fist.

The terrifying, purplish-black lightning seemed to blot out the sky, dimming the heavens.

The terrifying shockwave, like a hurricane, stirred up huge waves on the once calm sea.

Even though Luffy and Uta were standing on the shore hundreds of meters away, the strong wind made them unsteady on their feet.

Then, Garp changed his posture, clenched his fist, and swooped down.

An unparalleled and powerful pressure suddenly erupted, and terrifying energy swept down from above, as if engulfing the entire ocean.

The purplish-black lightning seemed to tear through the air, emitting terrifying explosions.

"Falling to the bottom of the ocean!"

Then Garp roared from mid-air.

He was like a god descending to earth, carrying an awe-inspiring power, and slammed this punch, which seemed to tear the heavens and earth apart, into the sea.

Just as Garp was about to touch the surface of the sea, it was as if an invisible barrier blocked him from reaching it.

Instantly, the entire sea seemed to surge forth like hundreds or thousands of dragons emerging from the ocean, creating towering waves.

Within the range of Garp's attack, the sea surface sank downwards, forming a bottomless abyss with no visible boundaries.

Luffy and Uta were completely shocked by what they saw.

Such terrifying power is beyond their current comprehension.

However, Luffy was more surprised than anything else.

because...

"Your comprehension is extraordinary. Through personal contemplation and experience, you have comprehended the Conqueror's Haki that entwines you."

Chapter Ten: A Leap Forward, the Shameless Garp

Coastside.

Garp had returned to Luffy and Garp's side, and was now grinning smugly with his hands on his hips, showing off his front teeth.

"How about it, Luffy? Wasn't that a great move?"

"If you agree to join the navy with me, I'll teach you this trick!"

Luffy didn't answer immediately. Instead, he walked to the shore, faced the sea, and spoke slowly.

"Let me try it first."

As soon as he finished speaking, Luffy clenched his fist and gathered his energy.

In the blink of an eye, a torrent of energy began to surge from his body.

A tangible, purplish-black lightning bolt tore through the air, converging between his fist and the heavens and earth, covering a distance of nearly a hundred meters.

Immediately afterwards, Luffy unleashed a punch mid-air.

A terrifying burst of energy erupted and roared, lightning crackling with shockwaves, forming a transparent, purplish-black ball of electricity.

The electric sphere suddenly exploded, and a powerful shockwave shot out from the sea like a cannonball.

Instantly, wherever the shockwave swept, seawater rushed wildly to both sides.

Ultimately, it left a huge trench several meters deep and hundreds of meters long on the sea surface.

Luffy was quite satisfied with the destructive power he had caused.

His current domineering aura is far from Garp's; to be able to achieve this level is already extremely impressive.

Garp was extremely satisfied with Luffy's performance, nodding repeatedly and continuing to speak smugly.

"Now you see how powerful my move is, right?"

"The ability to entwine with Conqueror's Haki is a technique that only a very few people can master."

"If you come back to Marine Headquarters with me, I promise I'll teach you this move!"

Luffy remained silent, simply turning back to stare quietly at Garp.

Garp was engrossed in his fantasy of Luffy's grueling training when he suddenly froze on the spot as if electrocuted.

For a moment, the air became incredibly quiet.

"what..."

The next second, Garp clutched his head with both hands, his chin dragged on the ground, his eyes bulging out, staring at Luffy as if he had seen a ghost, shouting in disbelief.

While Uta wasn't as exaggerated as Garp, he was still amazed by Luffy's incredible learning ability.

He learned it after just one look; his talent is terrifying.

...

Although Luffy mastered the Conqueror's Haki binding technique instantly thanks to his extraordinary comprehension, its actual combat application is quite different from simply casting the skill out of thin air.

So Luffy once again exploited Garp, wanting him to be his sparring partner.

"Old man, let's have a fight!"

He deliberately called Garp "old man" because he wanted Garp to fight him.

As expected, Garp got angry when he heard Luffy's disrespectful tone. He immediately bared his teeth, rolled up his sleeves, and said angrily.

"You idiot, I think you've forgotten the power of Grandpa's iron fist."

Garp was aware of Luffy's little scheme, but he didn't expose it.

This might be one of the few things he can do for Luffy, so he should just be a good sparring partner.

...

"Your comprehension is extraordinary. Through personal combat experience, your Armament Haki has been enhanced."

"Your comprehension is extraordinary. Through personal combat experience, your Observation Haki has been enhanced."

"Your comprehension is extraordinary, and through personal combat experience, your spirit has been enhanced."

"Your spirit has been enhanced, and your Conqueror's Haki has been strengthened."

...

Time flew by, and two months later, the three of them left the island.

For the past two months, Luffy's life has consisted of eating, sleeping, and getting beaten up.

However, despite getting beaten up every day, Luffy is happy every single day.

His strength increased by leaps and bounds during this period, even more than he had increased by cultivating alone for two years.

This is also largely due to his sparring partners.

As one of the world's top powerhouses, Garp would naturally gain far more from fighting someone of this caliber than through other means.

Moreover, Garp possesses Conqueror's Haki, and Luffy has also discovered that when fighting opponents with Conqueror's Haki, his Conqueror's Haki also improves due to his extraordinary comprehension.

As a result, the intensity of his Conqueror's Haki has more than doubled compared to before.

He also made significant progress in terms of physical fitness.

He even successfully broke through the Eight Gates Formation during this period, and was able to open the sixth gate.

Luffy is confident that his current strength is enough to set sail without any problems, and he has even surpassed the Marine Headquarters captains that Garp sometimes brings with him.

If the Eight Gates were activated, he could even put up a fight against some weaker comrades.

However, the training should stop here.

Garp ultimately had a mission to complete, and being able to spare two months to train with him was already the limit.

...

Back in Windmill Village, Garp did not allow Luffy to stay in the village any longer.

Instead, they took him and Uta to the back of the village, deep in the forest at Mount Gorpo.

Boom!Boom!Boom!

A wooden hut atop Golpo Mountain was being pounded on repeatedly.

"It's so noisy! Who's the one who's got a death wish?!"

A woman with orange hair and a large, stout build rushed out of the wooden house. She was smoking a cigarette and roared impatiently.

Luffy also recognized this person; he was Dadan, the bandit who raised him and Ace in the original story.

"It's me!"

Karp responded calmly.

Upon seeing who it was, Dadan was so frightened that she retreated repeatedly, snot hanging from her nose, and exclaimed in surprise.

"Mr. Garp...!"

"You look quite energetic?"

"Stop joking, I'm begging you to spare us! Ace is already 10 years old."

Upon hearing Dadan mention Ace, Garp immediately became interested.

"Really? He's grown so much! Is he doing well?"

At this moment, another bandit who had heard the commotion and rushed over complained.

"We're almost at our wits' end with him, please take him back with you!"

Garp ignored the bandits' complaints and changed the subject.

Compared to those...

With that, Garp pushed Luffy and Uta in front of him.

"Please take care of these two guys too."

The bandits were stunned upon hearing this.

"kindness???"

Garp patted Luffy on the shoulder, "Come on, Luffy, Uta, say hello."

"Yo!"

"Hello!"

Luffy and Uta simply waved to each other.

The bandits were still completely bewildered, and one of them asked, "Who are these two kids?"

"They are my grandson and granddaughter-in-law."

Garp picked his nose with his finger and said something in a particularly shameless way.

Uta, who was standing in front of him, turned around and gave him a puzzled look.

Garp simply turned his head away, pretending not to see it.

The bandits were stunned when they heard the news.

"Two more?!"
