Er-Baz Island:
"Conqueror Haki... You've finally awakened this power, huh?" At that moment, Roger had a big smile on his face.
"This reminds me of the first time for me when I activated this power without even realizing it... I suddenly feel nostalgic about the past..."
The crew members gazed at their captain as he spoke at that moment. Most of them were curious to learn when their captain had awakened his own Conqueror's Haki.
"Hmm? Causing dozens of powerful warrior women to faint in Conqueror's Haki first release... That's a sign of the tyranny of this Haoshoku..."
Rayleigh pointed out an important note that almost everyone missed.
"Anyway, it's still unrefined... It needs training quickly." Rayleigh added.
"Maybe you'll be the one to train him, Rayleigh..." Roger said with a smile.
"Me? Why do you assume that?" Even Rayleigh was surprised by this assumption he hadn't considered.
"Well, I just feel that way... After all, I don't see anyone qualified enough to teach him like you... Maybe his grandfather, but he's a stubborn Marine... I don't think he would do it," Roger explained.
"Well, it doesn't matter who will teach him... the most important thing is whether he'll accept the training if the war ends tragically for him."
When Rayleigh said this, Rouge trembled instinctively... she didn't want to see that ending again... one that was getting closer and closer.
"No matter how strong he becomes, no one can overcome the intensity of my Conqueror's Haki. You told me that, Captain."
At that moment, Shanks boasted about awakening his own Conqueror's Haki at the age of 17, just like Luffy.
"Hahaha! That's evident from your clash with the Whitebeard in the manga some time ago." Roger laughed as he gently stroked his worried wife's back.
"In hell, your Haki will be even more intense than my 'horizontal cut' ability!" exclaimed Buggy.
Shanks was annoyed when he heard that... he saw the new ability that Buggy had learned under the training of both the Captain and Rayleigh.
An ability that didn't exist in the manga at all!
In other words, Buggy can now not only be 'cut' but also 'cut' others!

"One Piece" Events:
—————————
"I realize that you two are strong."
Luffy placed his hand on the ground, entering Gear Second mode, and said with a smile, "From now on, I'll go at full power!!!"
"Gear Second!!!"
Luffy's body changed to a bright pink and began emitting smoke.
The audience was stunned by what they saw.
"What's that...?" "Smoke's coming out of his body!!" "... Can men... Do that!?"
The Gorgon Sisters were momentarily astonished.
"There's nothing to be scared of, Mari..."
"That's right."
"If he can't control that gigantic Haki, then it's just spirit!! Snake Hair Possession!!! Yamata no Orochi!!!"
Her green hair transformed into numerous long-fanged snakes, attacking Luffy, who disappeared due to his high speed in Gear Second.
(Why can't I hit him!!? I'm reading his moves, but I can't... I can't keep up!!!)
Despite her deadly attacks, she couldn't touch him. Even reading his movements with her Haki couldn't help, all because of his incredible speed.
In an instant, Luffy managed to knock her down to the ground amidst everyone's shock.
Marigold attacked to protect her sister and then assumed a defensive stance.
"It's futile! You saw how I reflected your attack earlier!!"
"Jet Bazooka!!!"
Luffy's powerful attack sent her flying backward and shattered her weapon.
"AAAAAAHH!!!"
In an instant, the tide of battle had turned in Luffy's favor.

Foosha Town:
"Bwahahaha!! This is my grandson for ya!"
The sound of Garp's laughter drew the readers' attention back to the famous hero.
"Like grandson, like grandfather! They're both extremely powerful!!"
"That's right! Grandfather 'Hero Garp' must have taught him techniques like these, right?"
"Let's go ask him; this is an opportunity we can't miss..."
"But... those men next to him... Sir Crocodile... Bartholomew Kuma... and the Revolutionary Dragon! I don't have the courage to stand in front of big shots like these!"
"Me neither! Even if I'm inside the art store, I can't!"
"How embarrassing... we're less brave than Makino-chan!"
...
..
"Why do you look like you've lost your spirit, Ivan?" Kuma asked.
"They... they... don't know me!"
"All of you are known to them! But they don't know the Kamabakka's king! That's unreasonable!"
"Why would they recognize a trans even if you're a king?" Crocodile scoffed.
"Shut up! It's because I haven't appeared in the manga yet, while all of you have!"
...
Ohara:
"Hehehe~ That's the effect of Conqueror's Haki on the mob's soul."
"With just one release, it shook their spirits... even if they are stronger than him, they dared not disrespect the 'King'!"
Doflamingo was pleased with this development in the events... he expected such a scene, but he didn't think it would come this quickly and in this manner.
"The 'mobs' you're talking about are our little sisters, Mari and Sonia... you're too excited to remember that, Doffy."
"Oh? I haven't forgotten... even though they're Mari and Sonia when compared to the Kings, they might seem like commoners... but that doesn't diminish their importance. Their status as the 'Emperor's' children actually elevates them to a higher position than the kings themselves!"
"So why do you keep insisting that they're nothing but mobs?"
This time, Enel and Rosinante asked, visibly annoyed.
"Hehehe~ Well... it seems you have a problem, guys," Doffy said mockingly.
"A problem? What problem?" the duo, Rosinante, and Enel, asked with clear irritation.
"A problem in distinguishing between two worlds... one of them has become 'the past,' even though it should be 'the future'... and the other is 'the present' we live in, which no longer has any connection to the first."
