It started from eating the Houkai Fruit in the Pirate World

But Kiana is not comparable, and her combat talent is probably not as high as Luffy's. In this case, being able to learn armament color in three to six months is already the best result.

Using Armament Haki in combat is something that Kiana doesn't have to consider in the short term, because it is simply impossible to do.

However, Armament Haki cannot be considered for the time being, but Conqueror Haki is different.

Although from the perspective of anime and comics, Conqueror's Haki is said to be a qualification that is one in a million, and it is the spirit of an absolute king.

But Doflamingo would break out in cold sweats when he heard Kaido's name, and Katakuri was just a brother who wanted to protect his younger siblings, and Kiana could accept all of this.

But the Flower Country leader, Qingjiao, who has both the World Government and the King above him, is completely like a small leader. It's said that such a person is one in a million...

Anyway, Kiana doesn't believe it.

And since Conqueror's Haki is not something that is fixed at birth, Kiana can prepare to try to activate it.

Judging from the portrayal in comics and anime, Conqueror's Haki is a method in which one's own willpower is extremely strong, and one uses one's own willpower to crush the enemy's will, crushing the enemy's will to the point of collapse, or even fainting directly.

Kiana might not know how to crush the enemy's will with her own will, but the Key of Consciousness allows her to do this easily.

The only problem is that Kiana's willpower is probably not very strong now, and she needs some stimulation to learn the Conqueror's Haki.

Doflamingo's outburst was caused by being tortured to the point of near-death as a child, and Katakuri's outburst was caused by absolute rage caused by his sister being beaten.

Luffy officially displayed his Conqueror's Haki in front of many people on the Island of Daughters, but before going to the Island of Daughters, as early as when he was about to set foot on the Sabaody Archipelago, Luffy showed a certain potential for Conqueror's Haki for the first time.

Before Luffy displayed his Roadmaster Haki and sneaked forward, a little bit in time, Luffy's last opponent was Moriah, where Luffy encountered something that greatly affected his mental strength.

It's not a body with the Shadow-Shadow Fruit, but 100 human shadows were forced into it. Kiana would never think that those 100 shadows had nothing to do with Luffy's later awakening of the Conqueror's Haki.

The Conqueror's Haki itself is a manifestation of willpower. Using willpower to forcibly trap those shadows for a period of time will increase strength but also put a mental burden.

And this huge burden is the cornerstone before Luffy awakens his Conqueror's Haki.

Moriah is on the Grand Line, and Kiana is now in the North Sea. The distance is too far, and Kiana certainly cannot rush to Moriah immediately to snatch his shadow.

But fortunately, the place where Kiana is located is a black market controlled by Doflamingo, which claims that as long as the money is in place, there is nothing that cannot be bought.

Gekko Moriah, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, is not short of money. Given his tolerance towards his subordinates, the three people under him are not short of money either. But what if the money is 3 billion?

What if the shadow is only borrowed for a few days and will be returned later?

Moriah only wants to defeat Kaido and become the Pirate King, but would his men really look down on billions?

As long as this loophole is opened, things can be done, especially when Moria has not one but three people under his command. If you don't take the free money, someone else will.

Kiana had no doubt about how capable Doflamingo's men were at negotiating. After all, with 2 billion as the reward for this mission, Doflamingo's men did get things done.

When 200 shadows were injected into Kiana's body, the powerful pressure made Kiana, who possessed the key of consciousness, feel uncomfortable all over.

It felt like taking two pounds of laxatives but not being allowed to go to the toilet for three days.

The body's instinct wanted to disperse all these shadows, but Kiana knew that if she let the shadows disperse directly, it would become impossible for Kiana to find something that could help her awaken the Conqueror's Haki.

So Kiana had to use the power of the Key of Consciousness to forcibly suppress her thoughts and ensure that the shadow would not leave, even though Kiana was in extreme pain at this time.

…………

50 nautical miles outside Akanedi Island, Vice Admiral Ghost Spider was leading naval warships, including three giant warships of the headquarters and warships of the North Sea, staring at Akanedi Island with a covetous eye.

"Your Excellency, Lieutenant General, we have confirmed that the White-Haired Witch, Kiana, whose bounty is 225 million berries, is currently on Akanibi Island. Please provide instructions."

"According to the agreement with the Shichibukai, we can't get too close to Akani's island, but Kiana can't hide there forever."

"Pass the order down. Once Kiana emerges, all warships will begin the siege without reporting."

"Also, all artillery fire is forbidden. All combat must be conducted in close combat to prevent the White-haired Witch from sinking the warship with her artillery fire."

"Yes! Vice Admiral Ghost Spider!"

"Hmph, White-haired Witch Kiana, how long can you dance in front of the justice of twenty-three navy ships and twenty thousand men? I can already see the end of you."

75 The advantage is mine, how can I lose?

In the Navy Headquarters, inside the Sengoku Office.

"Damn it! What is that guy Kaido doing again!?"

Zhan Guo slammed his fist on the table. According to the news from the New World, Kaido came to the naval base and committed suicide again.

As a result, the navy had to mobilize troops to guard against Kaido, and continue to deploy the limited troops in the first half of the Grand Line to the New World.

Unfortunately, there are not many elite soldiers in the navy in the first half of the Grand Line, and now there are only a few elite lieutenant generals in the headquarters.

"How's things going with Ghost Spider? Has that woman who dared to challenge the authority of the navy been dealt with?"

Sengoku asked Mosca.

"Reporting to Marshal Sengoku, according to the information sent by Vice Admiral Onigumo, the White-Haired Witch is currently on the island protected by Doflamingo, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea. Because it is an island under the protection of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, our warships cannot get too close."

"However, Vice Admiral Ghost Spider assured the Marshal that as soon as the White-haired Witch leaves the agreed sea area, he will immediately lead the entire fleet to snipe her."

"This time, in order to deal with Kiana, we have mobilized the most elite navy in the North Sea, totaling 20,000 people."

"In addition, Vice Admiral Onigumo also brought three giant warships that are only available to the Navy Headquarters. The other two warships are commanded by rear admirals from the Navy Headquarters. To be on the safe side, he also brought eight brigadiers from the headquarters."

"Also, considering the errors in the previous intelligence reports, I have sent people to investigate all of Kiana's abilities this time."

"She once used her spatial abilities to leverage the Creek Pirates' artillery and quickly destroyed 30 of their pirate warships."

"Having learned from that lesson, I have sent a message to Ghost Spider, asking him to stop using the cannon. This way, Kiana's spatial ability will be of little use."

"We have 20,000 troops, eight brigadier generals, two major generals, and one elite lieutenant general."

"Considering the previous evenly matched strength between Kiana and Major General Sparrow, this time we've completely crushed Kiana and the others, both in numbers and combat power."

"So please rest assured, Marshal Zhan Guo, for this operation. As long as Kiana appears outside the agreed sea area, Vice Admiral Ghost Spider will capture her with absolute advantage."

"It won't be long before we get news about Vice Admiral Ghost Spider."

Zhan Guo nodded. "Have you investigated everything about her? You did a great job this time."

"Thank you for the compliment, Marshal. This is what I deserve."

"When Ghost Spider returns, the pressure in the new world will be somewhat less."

Zhan Guo looked out the window and his mood gradually improved.

The navy reigns over the sea as the king of the sea, and this time it has an absolute advantage in manpower and combat power. With such a huge advantage, he really can't understand how he can lose this battle.

"No matter what, this time tens of thousands of people are fighting against a few people, and the advantage is on me."

"Great idea, Marshal!"

Mosca saluted deeply to Zhan Guo, and with Azhi's confirmation of Zhan Guo, the matter of capturing Kiana became more certain.

Marshal Zhan Guo also said that as long as Kiana was captured, his case would not be pursued, he could continue to serve as the lieutenant general of the headquarters, and the previous events would be treated as if they had never happened.

After being busy for so many days, getting up earlier than the chickens and sleeping later than the dogs every day in order to find out the news about Kiana, he finally got a good sleep today.

…………

North Sea, Akanedi Island.

When two hundred shadows were stuffed into Kiana's body, the consciousness brought by the shadows was eroding Kiana's spirit all the time.

Gradually, Kiana could feel that the limit of her consciousness was approaching, but at this time, Kiana had absolutely no intention of awakening the Conqueror's Haki.

"Miss Kiana, are you okay? If it hurts, just bite my arm!"

Although he had not yet trained in Observation Haki, Sanji could clearly feel Kiana's discomfort at the moment.

"It's okay, I'll just take it easy."

Kiana gritted her teeth and persevered, but she felt her consciousness becoming heavier and heavier, and the pain in her brain becoming more and more intense.

In desperation, Kiana could only open a space and jump in alone to prevent the shadow from spreading outside and returning directly to the original owner's body.

The moment the space was closed, the shadow inside Kiana's body flowed outwards rapidly. Obviously, Kiana failed to use the shadow to awaken the Conqueror's Haki this time.

Looking at the two hundred shadows floating around in front of her, Kiana lay on the ground and sighed helplessly.

"As expected, the ability of Conqueror's Haki is not something that can be achieved easily. It is impossible to completely suppress these two hundred powerful shadows with just the bond of consciousness created by the Herrscher of Knowledge."

"But...what if it's the Herrscher of Consciousness himself?"

In the space created by Kiana, because there is no second person other than Kiana, Kiana can switch to another Valkyrie without worrying about being discovered.

Then, just one second later, Kiana, who was lying on the ground exhausted, disappeared, and was replaced by the great Lady Herrscher of Knowledge.

"Come on! It's just the consciousness of two hundred people. Today, I will show you the power of the Consciousness Ruler!"

The chains of the Herrscher of Consciousness stretched out, quickly binding the two hundred shadows and forcibly integrating them into his body.

Unlike the feeling of being suppressed by the shadows when facing Kiana, when facing these two hundred shadows as the Herrscher of Consciousness, the influence of the shadows' consciousness on the Herrscher of Consciousness was much less.

Even relying on the control of consciousness, the power of the shadow in the treasure recognition state quickly turned into its own amplification, pushing the mental power of the Herrscher of Consciousness, who was already good at the power of consciousness, to a new height.

Relying on the Herrscher of Consciousness's control over mental power, after adding the consciousness of two hundred people, the Herrscher of Consciousness glared, and the aura around her was released, forming ripples in the surroundings.

When the Herrscher of Consciousness switched to Kiana again, the original shadow still wanted to resist, but Kiana already had experience at this time, and her domineering aura was also aroused, so how could she be at the mercy of these two hundred consciousnesses again?

Kiana released her domineering aura, and the originally restless shadow gradually calmed down.

Thanks to the Herrscher of Consciousness's control over consciousness and the influence of the Key of Consciousness in his hand, Kiana does not need to train how to release the Conqueror's Haki as long as it is stimulated.

Compared to Luffy, Kiana can save half a year of training time.

After completely suppressing the shadow in her body, Kiana walked out of the space.

"What's going on outside?"

"The steamboat is ready, but I'm afraid it won't be easy for us to leave."

"The navy has mobilized twenty-three warships to deal with us, three of which are extra-large. According to the information we've received, there are also lieutenant general-level officers in charge. It's likely that we'll have trouble escaping."

Nami said with a worried look on her face, but Kiana didn't seem to care.

"If you can't escape, then don't. I can't bear this injustice. Let's just head straight for the warship where the vice admiral is."

Kiana put her hands on her waist, her domineering color just awakened.

76 Ghost Spider: Is this what you meant by the intelligence being fine?

"Are you saying that even though Kiana knew that my side was the strongest, she still chose to go to the warship where I was?"

Ghost Spider was inside the giant warship brought from headquarters, listening to the news reported by his subordinates, and a look of confusion appeared on his ferocious face.

"Yes, Vice Admiral Ghost Spider, according to the Don Quixote family's intelligence, Kiana immediately rushed towards our warship after inquiring about the direction of our warship."

"I see, you go down."

After casually dismissing his soldiers, Ghost Spider called Lieutenant General Mosca.

"Hey, this is Ghost Spider."

"Lieutenant General Ghost Spider, how is it, has Kiana been dealt with?"

When Vice Admiral Mosca heard that it was Spider Demon calling Den Den Mushi, he immediately became excited. Whether he would be demoted or not depended entirely on whether Spider Demon could catch Kiana.

"Not yet. She's heading towards my warship now. I've already started assembling my warships, and it won't be long before we officially encounter her. But before that, is there something wrong with the intelligence you gave me?"

Ghost Spider looked at the Den Den Mushi in front of him, and his already ferocious face became even more ferocious. Even the Den Den Mushi opposite Mosca's look became terrifying.

"No, the information I was looking for was absolutely reliable. Some of it was even obtained after much effort. You know that this matter is related to me."

"Marshal Zhan Guo has already ordered that if you fail to capture Kiana this time, my rank will be directly demoted. That's why I contacted so many warships and specifically sought out those who have witnessed Kiana's strength recently."

"A lot of this information is no more than a month old, and its authenticity is absolutely reliable. Unless Kiana's strength can be continuously improved in less than a month, there is no chance of this happening."

"But you also know that for someone who has already eaten a devil fruit, how much improvement can she make in a month?"

"Whether it's Haki or Fruit, it's completely impossible to significantly improve it in just one month. Even if Kiana grows in this short period of time, her strength is definitely controllable."

"Otherwise, Marshal Zhan Guo wouldn't have sent you alone and was so sure that you could capture Kiana. Those major generals and brigadier generals were all sent by me."

After hearing what Mosca said, Ghost Spider stopped talking. These major generals and brigadier generals in the headquarters were all Mosca's direct subordinates. He had no conflicts with Mosca, so Mosca naturally would not use his direct subordinates to trick him.

However, just in case, he could let Mosca's direct subordinates serve as the vanguard, while he himself would recuperate in the back and wait until all the major generals and brigadier generals were killed before fighting Kiana.

The navy's duty is to catch pirates, so sacrifice is inevitable, and it is completely acceptable to Spider-Man.

In the eyes of extremists like Spider-Man, even if it involves hundreds of soldiers, it is worth it if only the Four Emperors suffer a little damage.

Otherwise, he would not have ordered the bombardment of all ordinary navy ships when he knew that the shells had almost no chance of working on Luffy.
