Marvel: Starting with the Glint-Glint Fruit

Rumble~

A dull rumble echoed across the desolate land, while dazzling red lightning surged wildly in the sky.

A boundless and overwhelming spirit.

It turned the entire space into a deep red color.

Under this overwhelming will, anyone and anything will be crushed.

But on the ground, there was an army that was stubbornly holding out.

Those were the three chapters: Astartes, Ravens, and Grey Knights.

This does not include the five thousand candidates.

The three battle groups, including Reicher, Natasha and other high-ranking warriors, all stood still, enduring the impact and baptism of Matthew's Conqueror's Haki standing in front of them.

Everyone's eyes were filled with the red glow.

A terrifying aura surged within his chest, converging and merging together to form an extremely terrifying torrent, in order to counter the emperor's domineering aura.

Yes, each of them has awakened Conqueror's Haki.

The seeds of Conqueror's Haki were absorbed and awakened by all of them.

But that's not enough, far from enough.

Conqueror's Haki is divided into several stages. In the initial awakening stage, it can often only be triggered by extreme emotions such as anger, which can have a mental impact on the surrounding people and knock them unconscious, but it cannot be precisely controlled.

The second stage is stronger than the first stage. As the spirit increases, one can gain precise control over Conqueror's Haki, thus controlling the timing, power, and range of its impact.

The advanced level undoubtedly possesses the ability to cause extremely powerful destruction to physical matter.

A user of Conqueror's Haki who possesses both mental and physical prowess can unleash their Haki in all directions simply by raising their aura; it can be said that Conqueror's Haki is always in a state of activation.

Its oppressive force can easily destroy a ship, and can also cause a battle-hardened agent to fall to the ground without even noticing when passing by.

Finally, it was enveloped in Conqueror's Haki, the threshold of top-tier powerhouses.

The warriors of the three battle groups have already awakened their domineering aura. Their beliefs and wills are extremely firm, and their cognitive perspectives have long been broadened.

This allows the warriors of the three major battle groups to release Conqueror's Haki on their own after awakening it, without needing to rely on emotional stimulation.

It's still in the most basic stage.

There is no orthodox training method to make Conqueror's Haki stronger.

Even though all three major battle groups possess the ability to enhance their mental strength through meditation.

Conqueror's Haki is not a purely spiritual force in the traditional sense; it is a power that combines willpower and vitality.

Meditation is not suitable for boosting Conqueror's Haki.

The mechanism for becoming stronger is the growth of one's spirit. For example, Luffy and Shanks, who have the Face Fruit, have their Conqueror's Haki become stronger as the story progresses because they have experienced hardships, strengthened their beliefs, and increased their aura.

From being released unconsciously to being controlled on Fishman Island and entangled in Wano Country, Luffy's actions are essentially an outward manifestation of his growth along the way, not a result of training techniques.

Simply put, it's about practical application.

Brutal real combat, experiencing life-or-death battles in desperate situations and breaking through one's own limits, will greatly increase one's strength and boost one's morale.

The second is experiencing despair and being reborn, like Luffy's constant transformation during his mental breakdowns in Impel Down and Marineford, which greatly increased his spirit.

The second option depends on the individual.

Matthew's task is to simulate the first scenario, using his Conqueror's Haki to exert extreme pressure on the warriors of the three major battle groups.

The pressure was so intense that everyone was on the verge of collapse.

Even if it cannot directly enhance the strength of the warriors' Conqueror's Haki, it can still achieve another possible result through this kind of pressure.

A breakthrough in technique.

For example, Kaido's advanced techniques.

Matthew wholeheartedly agrees with Kaido's teaching philosophy.

In fact, throughout his journey, after awakening his domineering aura, Matthew has been consciously seeking out powerful opponents to fight against.

For example, Mephisto.

He used Mephisto's hand to temper himself time and time again.

This teaching philosophy has been preserved.

Matthew used it on the soldiers of the three major battle groups.

The fusion of Conqueror's Haki from thousands of warriors from the three warbands, colliding with Matthew's Conqueror's Haki, made the Mirror Dimension space seem like the end of the world.

The fierce winds that erupted from the battle swept across the land, cracking rocks and soil in all directions. The entire barren land trembled violently, and fine cracks spread from all sides, extending along the soles of the soldiers' shoes.

The terrifying Conqueror's Haki, like a tangible crimson tsunami, surged down in layers, filling the entire space with an overwhelming aura that could crush everything.

The sky has cracked open.

The rolling clouds were split in two.

But quantity doesn't determine everything; this is an absolutely unfair contest.

The thousands of warriors unleashing Conqueror's Haki were not attacking Matthew, but rather Matthew was overwhelming them with an almost crushing force.

Reicher, Natasha, Nigley, Bucky, Roseco, and everyone else.

Everyone's eyes are sharp, but their beliefs and will are being constantly compressed.

They were compressed until their bodies gradually began to bend.

In contrast to their usual practice of bowing and scraping before the emperor, this time they must demonstrate their fearlessness and steadfastness to him.

This was a training exercise, and also an opportunity for them to prove themselves to Matthew.

Rumble!!

Matthew understood the unwavering conviction in the eyes of these warriors. A slight smile played on his lips as he felt a surge of satisfaction, but at the same time, he intensified the release of his Conqueror's Haki.

This is the backbone of the empire's future.

So Matthew won't be soft-hearted.

boom!!

The ground cracked, and countless rock fragments rose into the air. As a figure wreathed in countless black and red lightning bolts shot out, all these rock fragments shattered instantly and turned into dust.

Facing thousands of people, Matthew did not use a Devil Fruit; he relied solely on his physical strength, the Six Powers, and Haki.

He was determined to fight against a thousand men single-handedly.

Let's see if these rock-solid warriors can be broken by themselves.

Matthew was too fast, covering thousands of meters in the blink of an eye. Reichelt, who was at the forefront, changed his expression, let out a low growl, raised his fist, which was dyed black by Armament Haki, and then threw this punch with determination and fearlessness.

The next second, Raiche was slammed to the ground.

boom!!

A violent roar exploded, the earth trembled, and Rai Che's burly body was slammed into the ground by Matthew's punch, which was imbued with Conqueror's Haki, instantly creating a large dent in the ground.

Spitting out mouthfuls of blood, the punch nearly killed Lei Che, and his consciousness began to blur.

A punch imbued with Conqueror's Haki, simply put, ignores health bars and defense, focusing on dealing true damage.

"Okay, we're in trouble." Nigley unconsciously licked his lips upon seeing this, but despite saying this, he showed no intention of backing down.

Bang!

Like Reicher, Nigley charged forward recklessly, and then she was sent flying backward, nearly hitting the other warriors along the way.

In other words, the soldiers reacted and moved quickly enough.

An absolute crushing victory was about to begin.

Matthew transforms into a red and black demon, and amidst a thousand warriors, he uses pure violence to smash them all away.

Every punch was imbued with Conqueror's Haki.

Those soldiers couldn't even withstand a single punch, let alone defend against it.

But no matter who it is, after being knocked away, they always get up from the ground, grit their teeth, and continue charging towards Matthew.

The battle lasted a full hour.

The soldiers, who had already fainted, lay in the craters of varying sizes all around them; not one of them remained conscious.

Except for Matthew.

Matthew stood still, looking around. The fighting had truly become one-sided, with many soldiers piled on top of each other, a scene imbued with philosophical meaning.

He twisted his neck, which was a little warm-up.

The main reason is that he progressed too quickly.

The growth rate of Lei Che and others is already exaggerated enough, but they are still far behind him.

Matthew did not receive any serum injections.

He had already discovered the monstrous talent of the old lady, coupled with his continuous training, battles, and the awakening of his three types of Haki.

This even includes the accumulation of magical knowledge.

These factors combined resulted in his life level progressing every minute and every second.

It's important to understand that the concept of life levels isn't just about the body; it also includes the soul.

For example, the Ancient One.

Her physical strength is inferior to that of any of the three major battle groups, but her life level is still at the T1 level in the Father God's echelon because her life level focuses on the soul.

Matthew is a combination of both.

Another point is its domineering presence.

In the world of One Piece, Haki is a subjective concept. Rayleigh, the Dark King, once said that the stronger one's belief, the stronger one's power.

This is not just empty talk.

This statement is proven throughout the protagonist group's adventures.

As beliefs grow stronger, that strength gradually manifests itself, which is why the protagonist group was able to transform from small-time thieves in the East China Sea into a royal force in just a few years.

The main characters always talk about partners, family, and bonds, and then their strength increases by leaps and bounds.

Sit-ups and last-minute breakthroughs have become commonplace in various battles.

It looks abstract, but it is actually a kind of rule-based thing.

Matthew also inherited this rule.

Therefore, his growth rate was equally unreasonable. Matthew's belief from beginning to end has always been the same: to become stronger and surpass.

Surpassing Professor X and Magneto on Earth, surpassing Thanos and Mephisto, surpassing the Ancient One, surpassing Odin, surpassing Dormammu, surpassing the four abstract gods.

Terra was established there, and it recruited people like Reicher.

This involves protection, but this protection is actually a duty, a compassion for ordinary people.

True belief has always been about becoming stronger and surpassing.

Matthew's belief is too great.

But the confidence he gained from the system and himself allowed him to rise in a spiral, his belief so strong it was almost overwhelming.

Therefore, Reichel and his classmates progressed quickly, but Matthew progressed even faster.

Matthew can rely on himself. Even if the subsequent system sign-in rewards don't directly bring him any substantial help, he can still surpass them one by one by relying on the resources and talents he currently possesses.

Matthew snapped his fingers, and the mirror world shattered silently.

Everyone returned to reality.
