552: The Real Iron Fist

Bullet and Garp fought so hard that they were both out of breath.

"I'm so old, I'm so old that I was forced to look like this by a little brat like you!"

A trace of blood spilled from the corner of Garp's mouth, but he still grinned widely, showing his white teeth.

"Stop pretending! Old bastard! How could I lose to an old man like you!"

Bullet's upper body was bare, exposing his knotted muscles, but there were bruises in many places. Even though he was fully covered with armament haki, he was still injured by Garp's punches, which made him feel very unhappy.

"I didn't expect you could become so strong after being imprisoned for twenty years!"

"Compared with you, most Marines are really too lazy!"

Garp's smile also faded a lot. Why do monsters like this always appear among pirates, but there are so few monster-level geniuses among Marines?.

Over the years, there were only a few people who could take the initiative to train with him, and Kuzan was the best among them, but he left the Marines.

It's so rare to meet a Koby who has a strong will. Unexpectedly, he was defeated by the Big Daddy Pirates before he could grow up.

"Nonsense! I worked a thousand times harder than anyone and gave everything for the sake of being the strongest in the world!"

Bullet spat out a mouthful of blood and threw away the shattered earphones on his head, revealing his ears that had been injured more than 20 years ago.

He retracted his armament haki, the longer he fought with Garp, the more he understood the advantages of integrating armament haki into his body.

In the past, when fighting others, he always relied on his demon body. His armament haki was strong enough to beat others by just overpowering them.

But today, he was beaten until he was full of bruises by an old man like Garp. He felt like his armament haki was like a huge stone that was blown apart by Garp's hammer.

Although Bullet has a bigger amount of armament haki than Garp, Garp's armament haki is too advanced and hard.

"Bullet, try using haki to harden the skin, muscles, and then the bones, and fight him with all your strength, because my hands are starting to itch!"

Basire shouted to Bullet, not many people can master armament haki to the point of hardening the bones, and not even many people can learn how to infuse the muscles with it.

After all, if your physique is not as strong as the demon's body, forcibly using armament haki in the muscles will only damage them.

There are really not many people who can achieve this kind of physical condition.

Not even Redfield has mastered the secret method of merging armament haki with his muscles, let alone the bones.

"You don't need to tell me, I can use it too!!"

Bullet shouted, he didn't want to do it because he was not very skilled yet. After all, using armament haki on his skin, muscles, and bones at the same time was very dangerous.

Minutes can permanently damage your muscles and bones.

The usual armament haki hardening is just a layer of armament haki wrapped around the skin, which does not damage the skin and muscles.

As Bullet roared angrily, his right arm, which had been shaken by Garp's blast, began to clench desperately.

An enormous amount of armament haki emerged from his right arm and he began to compress it, making his arm darker and darker, as if it had turned into a real iron arm.

"Garp! Let's see if your iron fist or my fist is harder!"

Bullet roared angrily and rushed towards Garp. He felt as if his arm had been stretched beyond its limits and was becoming numb.

He knew that this state could not last long and the fight must be resolved quickly.

"Bwahaha, I didn't expect you to have mastered this ancient combat skill, but you will lose the flexibility of your arms and it's full of dangers. This kind of strengthening only requires the fist, not the whole arm!"

Garp laughed and said, his hand also became extremely black, and he practiced it to a high level, which Bullet, who has just learned it, simply can't compare to.

Booooooom~!!!

The two collided violently again, and violent winds broke out. Garp still chose to confront Bullet head-on, and did not bully the stiff Bullet with his flexibility and proficiency.

"Good guy, you old man finally spit out something useful. You are much worse than Kaido. You are just like Rayleigh, a mediocre teacher!"

Basire's fist instantly turned black, his skin, muscles and bones all blackened, turning into a real iron fist.

Is this the secret of the Iron Fist?

It is countless times stronger than the regular use of armament haki, and it shouldn't even be afraid of a head-to-head confrontation with a supreme sword.

No wonder that even though Roger had the supreme sword Ace, he still couldn't defeat Garp's iron fist.

However, not many people can achieve such a terrifying physique. No wonder Garp uses mountains and warships to practice his punches.

His physique has already been trained to be stronger than Roger and even Whitebeard. No wonder he can still run around and be full of energy at the age of almost eighty.

Roger died of a terminal illness in his fifties, and Whitebeard was in his early seventies and was already on a IV drip.

But Garp is obviously four years older than Whitebeard, but it turns out that Whitebeard's body was several times worse than Garp's.

Seeing Basire using a real iron fist, Kuzan next to him also wanted to try it, but his physical fitness was not up to par. He couldn't even infuse the muscles with armament haki properly yet. Once infused, it was extremely painful, so let alone using it on his bones.

As Bullet and Garp continued to fight against each other, Bullet couldn't bear it anymore and exited the armed "iron arm" state first, but he has already mastered this "iron fist" feeling.

He even felt that he had found the hope of blasting Basire's barrier. He wanted to practice the real "Iron Fist" to the limits and completely surpass the old Garp.

"Monster! Really a monster!! A Devil fruit user can actually make his body so strong!"

Garp cursed, how could they live as pure physical practitioners? When Kuzan came to learn from him, he knew that Kuzan could not persist and could not train his physique to the requirements of the 'Iron Fist'.

After all, developing devil fruit abilities also consumes a lot of time and energy, and it is difficult to focus on training the body to the point where armament haki can be infused into the muscles and bones.

Facts have also proven this, Kuzan really did not persist to the end. This may also be because he was affected by the Ohara incident. After that incident, Kuzan became lazier than Kizaru and became a guy who relied almost completely on his devil fruit.

"Bullet, if you have fought enough, go to the side to rest and learn what the Iron Fist is!!"

Basire also walked towards Garp with interest, his right fist was black and shiny, as if it had invincible power.

There is no real distinction between armament haki infusion and conqueror's haki infusion. The physical power of one's body and the spiritual power of one's will are both equally important.

Whoever can reach a higher level will be stronger.
