On the other hand, several nautical miles from the Gates of Justice on the Red Line.
A heavily damaged warship was cutting through the waves at high speed.
On the ship's bow deck, Luo Yu was enjoying a drink, flipping the skewers in his hands. He occasionally sprinkled some homemade cumin powder, instantly intensifying the aroma and spreading it across the entire deck.
Everyone present watched with wide eyes, unable to stop themselves from swallowing.
Faced with Luo Yu's skilled movements and the intoxicating fragrance of the skewers.
If they hadn't personally witnessed Luo Yu's strength and abilities, they would have truly believed he was a renowned chef from somewhere.
"A skewer with some booze, truly, slacking off at work is the most comfortable thing in the world," Luo Yu tore off a piece of the lamb skewer, then took a swig of the local brew, sighing to himself.
This scene instantly caused Koby and the others, who were diligently practicing to master Haki, to feel their stomachs rumble.
After everything that had happened recently, coupled with the severe drain on their stamina from awakening Haki, the five of them were clearly defeated by the delicious food.
"Lo...Luo Yu.. I have a question."
A voice suddenly rang out.
Luo Yu raised an eyebrow, looking at Jabura standing five or six meters behind him, a little surprised.
"Jabura, what are you doing? Even if we're hungry, we won't eat this meager food you begged for," Spandam wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth and hurriedly shouted.
"We'll arrive at the Gates of Justice soon. Once we reach the Red Line, you can have whatever you want. Don't forget, we are the strongest CP9 in the history of Enies Lobby!"
As the supreme commander of Enies Lobby, Spandam had never imagined that he would be attacked twice in one day.
And it was still at the hands of the same person.
The gap in strength was indeed too great, but that didn't mean he could swallow his pride.
"Spandam-san, you're not up to the task! You can't satisfy us!" Jabura said urgently, his face serious.
"Can you help us awaken Haki?"
"If you could, we certainly wouldn't be asking for help!"
"Admiral Luo Yu, as long as you're willing, we can cover the three hundred million in repair costs. You won't have to pay a single cent."
Fukurou and Wekawa on the side also looked eager.
The struggle for power within CP9 never ceased.
They were indeed proficient in the Six Powers, and had delved into the fusion techniques and the ultimate techniques of the Six Powers.
However, if they could awaken Two-colored Haki, their strength would definitely skyrocket, and they might even be able to overtake others.
They had witnessed firsthand how smoothly Ain and the others awakened their Haki.
They didn't want to miss this opportunity.
Ain and the others were also surprised.
The always arrogant CP9 was actually humbling themselves to ask for help, which was beyond their expectations.
However, they were equally eager to know how Luo Yu would respond.
"Of course, there's no problem," Luo Yu said with a smile, taking a swig of the local liquor.
"No problem?" Jabura's eyes lit up, a hint of cunning flashing in his pupils. He quickly said, "Admiral Luo Yu, are you really willing to help us awaken our Haki?"
"When did we start?"
"we're ready, we can start anytime!"
The people present were stunned.
In their eyes, awakening Two-colored Haki was something unattainable.
Not to mention having a respected admiral lend a hand.
Now that the CP9 members spoke, Luo Yu immediately agreed.
Was this out of kindness, or because of CP's authority?
Spandam's expression also froze, but he quickly sneered.
"Heh, I didn't expect the esteemed Fourth Admiral of the Navy to be so agreeable. Are you trying to make up for the earlier incident of bumping into me, the highest-ranking official on Enies Lobby?"
"If that's the case, I might be magnanimous enough to forgive you!"
"Forgive you?" Luo Yu adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses. "Forgive me for what?"
"When you disembark later, don't forget to settle up for the ride."
"As for your request for me to help awaken Haki, that's certainly not a problem."
"Here's an application form. Fill out your personal information first, then go to our Navy department and get it approved by the Marshal, the Chief of Staff, the Chief Instructor, and other leaders at all levels."
"Once it's approved and stamped by all the leaders, and If you've waited for seven business days, I'll consider the feasibility and then give you an answer."
"Oh, and don't forget to apply for meal allowances, overtime pay, and performance bonuses. I don't want to work for free."
"I believe you all heard me clearly? If not, I'd rather not repeat myself."
Everyone present stiffened.
Not just Spandam and the other CP9 members, but even Ain and the others were taken aback.
Watching the application form drift onto the deck with the sea breeze, everyone was at a loss for words.
Apply for a stamp, and wait seven working days?
Meal allowance, overtime pay, and performance bonuses!
Was this a joke?
This was the first time they'd ever heard of such a bureaucratic process.
However, thinking about Luo Yu's actions during this time, Ain and the others couldn't help but exchange A wry smile., the same thought popping into their minds.
This is so like Luo Yu!
They were secretly delighted that Luo Yu hadn't been taken advantage of by the arrogant CP9.
"You damn bastard! How dare you make a fool of me? Don't forget, I'm the highest-ranking officer on Enies Lobby!" Spandam roared in fury.
"I've never heard of the Navy Headquarters having so many procedures."
"Are you rejecting our goodwill?"
"Rejecting your goodwill?" Luo Yu laughed. "I'm sorry, but I want to express my own goodwill."
"I often think about beating up the client."
"Too bad, old man Sengoku is still covering my repair costs. I can't bring myself to attack."
"Since you're on the same level as the Navy's Fleet Admiral, I'll have to make do with you as the client."
**BOOM!**
The Conqueror's Haki that had been dormant within Luo Yu's body erupted violently under his precise mental control.
The crimson shockwave, like a streak of light, pierced through the void.
In the blink of an eye, it shot straight towards Spandam.
Watching the attack rapidly enlarge in his pupils.
Spandam was dumbfounded, nearly unable to stop himself from slapping his own face.
This guy actually hit his superior.
It's a pity that Spandam clearly couldn't react to the attack that was right in front of him.
He was sent flying again.
**Boom!**
A dull impact echoed out.
An invisible force instantly blasted Spandam hundreds of meters away.
He slammed directly into the massive Gates of Justice that was about to open.
The tremendous impact caused the gate to shudder violently.
The people waiting to be cleared for passage were immediately startled.
Luo Yu frowned as he watched Spandam tumble onto the platform from the gate.
He hadn't expected to run into two familiar flags here!
