Chapter 54

After a while, everyone followed Xia Chen to an open space outside the town.

Xia Chen turned his head and looked at them, and after a moment of silence, he said: "First, I will teach you the Six Styles of the Navy, and then I will demonstrate these moves one by one!"

"Six Styles of the Navy? Are they moves in the Navy?"

Zoro asked in confusion.

"Yes!"

"Then if we learn their moves, won't they come to catch us?" Usopp said in horror.

But after he said this, everyone looked at him involuntarily, with an expression of looking at a fool on their faces.

"What are we?"

"Pirates!"

"Isn't it normal for the navy to catch pirates?"

"Does he mean he won't catch you if you don't learn?"

Xia Chen was a little speechless.

This Usopp, once he got scared, his intelligence dropped.

"But why do you know the navy's moves?" Sanji also asked.

"What do you care about me?" Xia Chen said unhappily.

"Okay, stop nagging and watch my next move carefully."

"First of all, the first one is the most common move among the six styles - shaving!"

"The so-called shaving means stepping on the ground more than a dozen times in a very short period of time to achieve the effect of high-speed movement!"

"Just like this..."

As soon as Xia Chen finished speaking, his figure disappeared from the spot in an instant, and then appeared in front of everyone.

"Siguoyi! Xia Chen, is this the skill that you disappeared every time before?" Luffy asked excitedly.

"That's right!" Xia Chen nodded, and then continued: "For this technique, Luffy, Zoro, Sanji, you three can consider learning it, as for Usopp and Nami, you two can just watch it for now!"

Learning the Navy Six Styles requires certain physical requirements. Luffy and the other three are barely able to do it now, and Nami and the other two are even worse.

Xia Chen brought Nami and Usopp with him today not mainly to teach them the Six Styles, but to teach them the Observation Haki, which does not require much physical fitness.

"The next thing to demonstrate is the Moon Step!"

"The Moon Step is a variant of the Shave. It changes its trajectory in the air by stepping on the air at the speed of the Shave during the jump and before falling."

"This move is very important. With it, you are equivalent to having the ability to fly!"

After that, Xia Chen also demonstrated the operation of the Moon Step to them.

"The next thing to demonstrate is the Storm Leg..."

"Paper Painting..."

"I feel that the remaining two finger guns and iron blocks of the Navy Six Styles are useless for you, so I won't demonstrate them!"

"You can decide what to learn from these four, or even if you don't want to learn. It's up to you!"

"Because learning will definitely consume energy, I can't guarantee the gains and losses!"

Xia Chen's words made everyone stunned slightly, and the excitement in their eyes gradually faded, but Zoro's expression did not change at all.

He has no interest in these moves, only kendo is his true love!

Xia Chen continued: "Okay, the Navy Six Styles are just second, and what I'm going to teach next is the most important thing!"

"Listen carefully, in this world, there is a kind of power that is standard for all strong people, without exception!"

"Hiss!" Hearing Xia Chen's words, everyone couldn't help but take a breath, full of expectations for what Xia Chen was going to say next.

"This kind of power is called Haki in the world!"

"Haki?" Luffy was a little confused. Why did he feel like he had heard this name somewhere?

Suddenly, Luffy had an idea and asked Xia Chen, "Is it the Haki that Uncle Chrysanthemum said last time?"

"You are right and wrong!"

"Haki is a general term, Haki is just one of them, and there are very few people who awaken. It depends on the qualifications!"

"Then do you think I have this qualification?" Luffy asked Xia Chen expectantly with his eyes wide open.

"A little bit!" Xia Chen replied lightly.

"Ah? Only a little bit!" Luffy was full of frustration when he heard Xia Chen's words.

Seeing Luffy like this, Xia Chen didn't say anything. Of course, he wouldn't tell Luffy that he had good qualifications. He still had to hit his confidence. Otherwise, he would be too arrogant later!

"Haki is another matter. What I'm going to say next is the key point!" At this point, Xia Chen glanced at everyone,

Then he said word by word: "And I require each of you to master it!"

"There are three types of Haki. In addition to the Conqueror Haki I just mentioned, there are two more, namely Armament Haki and Observation Haki!"

"That's what I want you to master!"

"Look, Armament Haki is actually like a suit of armor. When this armor is hard enough, it can be transformed into a means of attack!"

As Xia Chen spoke, he wrapped the Armament Haki around his right fist, dyeing it black.

"Is this... the ability you used to block my moves last night?" Zoro asked curiously.

"Yes!"

"Armament Haki can increase defense and attack power, which is why I can block your sword with my bare hands!"

"In addition, Armament Haki can also be attached to swords, so as long as your Armament Haki cannot be broken, your sword will not be damaged"

"How about it, are you tempted?"

Zoro didn't say anything, but the excitement in his eyes fully explained his current thoughts.

Protect the sword from damage?

This is an irresistible temptation for him!

"In addition, Hawkeye, whom you have been thinking about defeating, also has this power, and he has mastered it to a very deep level!"

Hearing this, the light in Zoro's eyes became brighter. An idea came to his mind silently.

"The first step to defeat Hawkeye is to master Armament Haki!"

"Okay, back to the topic, in addition to the functions I mentioned above, Armament Haki has another very important function, which is to touch the body of a natural ability user!"

"Natural ability user? What is that?"

Luffy asked in confusion, and the others looked at him curiously.

"I really am..." Xia Chen couldn't help but hold his forehead.

Then he had to popularize all the knowledge about devil fruits with them.

After a while~

"Do you understand now?" Xia Chen looked at Luffy and asked.

Then he nodded quickly like a chicken pecking at rice.

"Just like the smoke man you met last time, he is a natural devil fruit user. If you had Armament Haki at that time, you could touch his entity!"

"Of course, this is based on the fact that he is relatively weak. You still can't touch the top natural strongmen, because they can use Observation Haki to elementalize the places where they are attacked in advance."

"And Observation Haki is a kind of Haki that can predict other people's actions in advance!"

Xia Chen closed his eyes and said to Luffy: "Luffy, hit me!"

Because of his confidence in Xia Chen's strength, Luffy didn't think about it and punched out directly.

Then when Luffy's fist was about to touch Xia Chen, he lightly shook his head and dodged Luffy's attack.

"Good... so powerful!"

On the other side, Weiwei and others looked at this scene with their mouths wide open, and an idea came to their minds.

"Can Crocodile resist such power?"
