In One Piece With The Barrier Fruit

The next morning.

After studying armament haki for a whole night, Basire didn't even sleep. The next day, he continued to set off with the Red Count to go to collect the vampire fruit.

"Old man Redfield, I would like to ask for advice on conqueror's haki."

In the Ark Maxim, Basire was now very fascinated by the study of conqueror's haki, and having Redfield who's an expert by his side, of course he cannot help but ask him for advice.

On the sidelines, Redfield completed today's task honestly and infused some observation haki into the divination orb.

Before the current Redfield got the vampire fruit, he responded to Basire's requests honestly and tried his best to satisfy this guy's needs.

There is nothing that can be done about it. After all, people under the eaves have to bow their heads.

"Your learned conqueror infusion from that old bastard Shiki, right?"

"Both him and Whitebeard were both distracted by developing their devil fruit abilities, and they also had to manage a huge pirate fleet, so their Conqueror's Haki was not as good as mine or Roger's."

The Red Count was wearing a red aristocratic suit, and his long silver hair was neatly combed and tied into braids.

After returning the divination orb to Basire, he began to explain his conqueror's haki experience.

He even talked about his own naturally awakened mind-reading observation haki to see if Basire could also awaken this special observation haki.

After Basire tried it, Redfield showed a satisfied expression as if he was worth teaching.

"Your armament haki can also change its shape at will?"

Basire said with a little surprise after trying to develop Redfield's special observation haki.

"Isn't this a normal thing? Didn't anyone teach you? Have you never seen anyone else use it?"

Redfield raised his eyebrows and looked at Basire as if he were an idiot. Then he raised his umbrella. In an instant, its color turned black, and it quickly extended outwards, becoming a seven or eight meters long black sword.

"I've really never seen this before, after all, I've been at sea for less than three years!"

Basire looked at the umbrella sword in the Red Count's hand in surprise, feeling that he was indeed a little ignorant.

Sure enough, with no one to teach him, it was indeed a bit difficult to progress.

However, these top experts also had no one to teach them, so each of them found their own way with different directions.

On the road of armament haki, Bullet focuses on overwhelming might, while Redfield focuses more on control and has a more refined style.

Basire saw that the armed black sword in the old man's hand could even bend to attack, and he wanted to learn it even more.

Sure enough, having an old man in the family is like having a treasure.

You see, Red-haired Shanks became famous at a young age. And despite his age, his conqueror's haki has already surpassed the established Yonkōs such as Big Mom and Kaido.

Roger and Rayleigh's careful guidance is indispensable for his accomplishments.

Kaido of the Beasts struggled on his own, experienced the defeat of the Rocks Pirates, and was captured by the Marines many times for experiments.

When Kozuki Oden returned to Wano, Kaido really couldn't defeat this idiot samurai who had been hanging out with Roger for a couple of years.

He and Kurozumi Orochi worked together to capture some hostages, threatened Kozuki Oden, and made the idiot dance for several years, which finally forced an all-out war.

But even then, Kaido was still unable to defeat Oden, leaving an irreparable cross wound on his chest.

In the end, it was the trick of Kurozumi Higurashi, the Clone Fruit user, who distracted Oden that allowed Kaido to successfully come back and defeat him.

Basire suspected that Kaido's conqueror haki infusion was learned from his fight with Kozuki Oden, and from a side perspective, it came from Roger the Pirate King.

After all, Kaido captured the Nine Red Scabbards as prisoners at that time, and with just a threat, maybe Kozuki Oden handed over the training method.

No wonder Kaido respected Roger's Haki-oriented philosophy so much.

Now in order to learn these advanced skills of conqueror haki, Basire showed some respect to the Red Count.

He quickly learned everything he could about the three types of haki from Redfield.

Seeing this old man teaching him without reservation, Basire almost wanted to cancel his previous conditions on the spot. After handing the vampire fruit to him, he considered letting him go.

But this feeling soon made him realize that something was wrong.

"Huh, Senior Red Earl's guidance is so powerful that I almost couldn't even notice it!"

After Basire woke up with a start, he still behaved after getting an advantage, and said to the Red Earl with a smile.

If Basire hadn't been a transmigrator, he would have really been tricked by the cunning old man and he would have taken the initiative to cancel the previous challenge agreements.

"You are indeed different! Forget it, forget it, I lost this time!"

Redfield didn't expect Basire to react so quickly. After all, he really used his true skills to teach him.

He wanted Basire to feel a sense of gratitude, and then deepen it through his observation haki's emotional guidance, so that Basire would take the initiative to terminate the previous agreement.

Then he would be able to leave the Big Daddy Pirates immediately after getting the vampire fruit.

But he didn't expect Basire to be so obsessed with keeping him in the Big Daddy Pirates.

"Bahahaha! Thank you for your selfless dedication, old man, but I am not a completely ungrateful person."

"Let's do this, from now on in the Big Daddy Pirates, you only need to take action once or twice a year, and you can roam freely on your own the rest of the time. After all, I really might need your combat power to deal with the power of the World Government."

Basire smiled and said seriously, and then began to briefly tell the Red Count about the information he has on Imu, the Five Elders, and the God's Knights.

"How powerful is the World Government??"

Redfield also looked at Basire in surprise. He originally thought that he was going to use him and Bullet to defeat the other Yonkōs, then unify the New World and become the Pirate King.

But unexpectedly, Basire was already preparing to fight against the World Government.

"That's right, the eight hundred years of World Government's heritage is not something that the Four Emperors can handle."

"Moreover, Kaido and Big Mom are a pair of brainless fools who wouldn't cooperate unless they had absolutely no choice."

"And Red-haired Shanks is a descendant of the Celestial Dragons. No one really knows what his final choice will be."

Basire took a breath and said. The World Government's background is very terrifying. As long as they are serious, they can really overthrow any Yonko's pirate group.

If the New World's various extreme weathers were not full of uncertainty, the Four Emperors would not be able to stay there forever.

Of course, the most critical point is that Celestial Dragons such as the Five Elders and the God's Knights are all pretentious and have a superiority complex, so they generally don't bother to deal with lowly pirates.
