Double-transformation: I, Sakura Haruno! Will crush the pirates!

However, on the other hand, Ace successfully broke into the territory of the Sea Emperor and fought against many powerful figures.

At this moment, I also wondered how much of a gap there was between myself and these sea monsters.

His rebellious nature, typical of a pirate, was stirring within him.

He gritted his teeth and got up from the ground.

Why don't you give it a try!

Then....

Several tens of minutes later, in the devastated Giants' Square, the boy and girl lay in the crater, panting heavily.

"Wow, that's amazing! Just like Kaido... no, even stronger than that guy Kaido!"

Despite being dressed in tattered clothes and covered in dust, Yamato had no injuries, and the light in his eyes only grew brighter.

"Heh...heh...how did you do that?"

Ace, who was also lying next to her, was so exhausted that he could barely speak.

I originally planned to wait until Yamato experienced Sakura's class before giving her a good laugh.

Right now, I just feel an itch on my nose, like there's a small red ball stuck to it.

It's the same mask as Bucky's; it's one of them.

"If you follow the direction of Sakura-senpai's domineering aura, you can get healed by her ability. Didn't you notice?" Yamato swayed as he sat up and tilted his head at Ace.

"How could that idiot disciple, with his half-baked level of domineering aura, possibly sense this?"

Sakura walked to the edge of the pit, formed a hand seal towards the two people below, and her Wood Release chakra began to boil.

The tender green shoots immediately pushed through the soil and grew, creating a vibrant spring courtyard in this snow-covered underworld.

Yang Release chakra was channeled into their bodies through the plants, helping them quickly recover their depleted strength and injuries.

Ace and Yamato stood up in surprise and stretched their bodies.

Sakura, now in teaching mode, coldly ordered the two, "Yamato, you can go train on your own now. Ace, you continue!"

"what?"

Ace let out a mournful cry, but a huge shadow had already loomed over him.

In his haste, he could only barely gather Armament Haki on his entire back for a wide-range defense.

Sakura's fist struck Ace's weak point in his Haki, shattering his Haki.

They slammed him into the ground again, creating a large hole.

"Wrong, we should use Observation Haki to foresee the future first, and then use Hardening to refine the defense!"

She meticulously and thoroughly explained to Ace the scenarios that would arise in a fierce battle.

This is why the disciples or descendants of strong individuals are always more likely to become strong themselves.

On the one hand, the inheritance of will gives these people a broader vision and greater ambition during their growth, and their domineering nature naturally increases.

On the other hand, the skills used in various struggles are also passed down in this way, allowing them to win in the battles and go further.

"Come again!"

Sensing Sakura's good intentions, Ace gritted his teeth and got up.

Without hesitation, he met her head-on, thrusting his fist, which was imbued with Armament Haki.

The same punching style! Attack against attack, with no room for retreat.

His resolute will burned fiercely, making his domineering aura even more tyrannical.

Come on, Sakura-nee!

Let me see what kind of world separates us!

Chapter 336, what a painful realization!

All I can say is that the worlds between the two of them are too far apart.

The essence of domineering power lies in willpower; the three colors that extend from it represent the application of that willpower.

Ideals, beliefs, emotions, murderous intent... these pursuits from the spiritual realm will become the fuel for dominance, making it even stronger.

However, all of this depends on the mind and body of the user of the domineering aura, which determines the final effect of this weapon.

The domineering clash in the Giant Village at this moment is a battle of wills against wills, a battle of mind and body against mind.

Experience, skills, mindset, physique... both quality and quantity are indispensable.

Thunderclaps seemed to explode between Sakura's fists.

He didn't use his terrifying strength to overwhelm Ace at all, and even considerately kept the intensity of his Haki within a range commensurate with him.

However, his ability to switch freely between the two colors of domineering aura far surpasses that of the young man in front of him.

"hateful!"

Ace felt underestimated, so he clenched his fists and unleashed another powerful black iron fist.

With the added power of his domineering aura, his fist rubbed against the air at high speed, even igniting the air and bringing out flames.

But this raging torrent of energy came to an abrupt halt in front of Sakura's outstretched palm, and was even suppressed instead.

Like the mist that crashed against the city wall, the domineering aura that once accompanied Ace in defeating countless strong opponents and achieving invincibility vanished under Sakura's raised right hand.

Even though his Observation Haki had detected her every move and he had focused his Haki as much as possible on the direction of her attack... it just wasn't working, and he couldn't even force her to use her other hand!

"You need to practice more!"

Sakura casually grabbed Ace's fist and threw it to the ground.

Taking advantage of Ace's stagger, she thrust her clenched right fist towards his astonished face. The sound of it cutting through the air was like thunder, accompanied by a powerful whistling sound as it wrapped around Sakura's arm.

Boom!

Ace didn't even have time to use his Observation Haki to predict and dodge before he was punched in the face. He flew backward, but his consciousness seemed to remain in the same place.

"Well..."

Ace, standing some distance away, hesitated for a moment, then subconsciously reached for the sword at his waist.

But his fingers had already touched the hilt of the knife, yet he stopped, clenched his fists again, and assumed a fighting stance.

"Why are you hiding your moves? Show them off!"

Sakura increased her chakra output, quickly healing Ace's injuries. "Or is it that he's already adapted to being a pirate and has developed a rebellious streak, preparing to use a trick against me later?"

"No, I'm just worried..." Ace instinctively began to speak as his consciousness gradually returned, but immediately stopped himself after realizing what he was saying.

"Oh, worried I'll get hurt?"

The girl smiled, a bright and radiant smile.

Ace: ? ? ?

No, there were so many people watching, you said that yourself!

"very good!"

Sakura happily took off her boxing gloves and pulled out the hilt of Yun Gang's sword from behind her back. "It really is my fault and the teacher's fault for not being responsible enough, making the students worry about me!"

So today I'm going to show you how powerful a teacher can be!

The disciple's deep filial piety is truly touching.

However, this doesn't conflict with Sakura's plan to give him a beating.

Since she's so arrogant as to worry about the enemy during battle, she has to respond to this contempt, otherwise this foolish disciple will be looking down on her for nothing.

On the basis of equal effort, let's bring out some advanced applications, since we were going to teach him anyway.

Limit power, limit domineering aura...

So, Sakura, having readjusted herself, raised her hand and gently touched the air.

—Armed Finger Gun!

Ace's eyelids twitched violently; his Observation Haki frantically warned him of impending danger. Without hesitation, he grabbed his sword and held it horizontally in front of his chest.

Clang! Clang! Clang! ...

Some of the attacks struck Ace's sword with a crisp sound, while the remaining finger guns pierced straight through his defensive Haki, allowing the Haki wrapped around them to seep into his body.

break out!

The domineering aura carrying Sakura's will exploded within Ace's body, causing him to cry out in pain. For the first time, he paid the price of severe physical injury to remember that chilling turbulent flow of domineering aura.

"Ouch, this will kill me, Sakura-nee!"

With his physical injuries healed, Ace coughed up blood as he struggled to his feet.

"Otherwise what? Even if your body can be healed, the accumulated pain will kill you!"

Sakura's teasing voice rang out, "So hurry up, Ace, or I'll be cleaning house today!"

A flowing, cherry-pink aura enveloped Sakura's fists, forming an invisible armor around them.

With overwhelming power and a ferocious smile, it descended from the sky and flashed in front of Ace.

In the distance, Yamato, who had stopped his training, found a place to sit down and hugged his knees.

"Rizaki, you're here, aren't you!"

After the white-haired girl spoke, the ground beneath her feet twitched unnaturally.

Then, a small protrusion extended from Yamato's feet, converging to form the shape of a super miniature Sakura.

"Are you a dog? You can find me even when I'm hiding in the ground?"

Even as she appeared here using her abilities, Risaka remained expressionless and continued her teasing.

"Hehehe, what can we do when we're all Dog-Dog Fruit users~" Yamato smiled happily. "By the way, you also know that Haki technique that Sakura-senpai taught us, right!"

Recalling their first battle, Yamato's freezing air could not penetrate her opponent no matter what she did, as if there was an invisible armor blocking her way.

"Yes, your mother taught you the principles, and your domineering aura level is already very close to that."

Miniature Sakura shook off the excess dirt from her body and jumped from the ground onto Yamato's chest.

She stretched comfortably and lay down on the soft surface that almost swallowed her whole.

"Then I'll come find you and spar with you!"

Yamato reached out and gently rubbed the clay doll's head.

“Okay, I’m at a factory outside the village. Just come find me.”

The clay figure nodded, got up, jumped back to the ground, and merged into the earth.

Excited, Yamato glanced at Ace and Sakura fighting, then quietly slipped out of the Titans' village and headed towards the pharmaceutical factory outside.

In the center of the plaza, Sakura, who noticed Yamato leaving, did not stop him.

Because she needed to focus more on Ace, lest she accidentally kill him if she used too much force.

"Flow, the key is to let your domineering aura flow!" She urged Ace as she threw her punch.

Holding the sword in both hands, Ace, whose vision was beginning to blur, desperately searched for a way to make his Haki flow amidst the clash of will and even mind.

As a genius who mastered Haki on his own during battle, he has always instinctively used Haki to get to where he is today.

Admittedly, this talent is a powerful asset that allows him to learn and adapt without a teacher, but it has also become an obstacle to his further progress.

To get back on track and reach higher levels, I can only make up for the lessons I missed little by little.

Hundreds of counterattacks with his sword, he repeatedly endured the pain of his domineering aura being shattered.

Finally, Ace took his "illusion" a step further and used his Observation Haki to glimpse the domineering aura flowing beneath Sakura's arms.

"Cough cough cough... I see!!!" Ace coughed violently.

With a surge of energy, a violent and domineering aura suddenly gathered on the blade, forming a layer of purple armor.

The Supreme Grade Sword, Twelve Craftsmanship, Ace, rises against the tide with its sharp sword intent.

It collided with Sakura's domineering iron fist.
