Wiping away the blood from the corner of his mouth, Qingjiao rubbed his tip with a sighing expression:
"Obviously, I have just started to get into Bachuquan. Not long ago, I developed a secret that can be called an advanced version of Cone Dragon Cone Nail. It is really a terrifying talent... I am so convinced that I lost."
After hearing that Qingjiao directly chose to admit defeat, Aoun naturally would not continue to pester the opponent.
In fact, competing to this extent is enough for him to judge his current strength level.
Being able to carry out hundreds of moves with Green Pepper, whose fists are covered with armed colors, without suffering too much damage, already shows how much armed color Haki has improved Ornn's offensive and defensive capabilities.
Before he acquired Armament Haki, it would have been impossible for him to fight Qingjiao to such an extent based solely on his physical strength.
As for the fact that he relied on trickery to win the victory when facing the Tyrannosaurus Spike, this is not something that Ornn finds difficult to accept.
There is a world of difference in strength between green peppers with pointed tips and green peppers without pointed tips. The move just now with the full state of the Cone Dragon Cone Nail, even Luffy two years later in the original work may not be able to easily catch it.
But Ornn was able to take advantage of the Black Hammer's characteristics to completely take on this move.
Even without the operation to detonate the Heart Steel Seal, his strong physical fitness and recovery ability in human-animal form alone were enough to continue fighting in a good condition after suffering shock damage.
And he still has a lot of trump cards that he hasn't used yet, such as the fragile effect provided by the bellows flame breath, or controlling the weapon colors to concentrate on the horns to use blazing charge...
Aoun estimates that there is still a big gap between his current strength level and Luffy's two years later in the original work.
But it should be comparable to Sanji before the story of Wano Country started.
After judging the specific level of his current strength, Aoun's heart did not fluctuate much.
He is basically satisfied with the speed of his progress and is not discouraged or complacent about it.
Just keep this pace and make steady progress and it will be great!
Next, he plans to continue practicing the hardening coverage of the weapon color while stacking steel to forge the moving castle on a daily basis.
If nothing else happens, by the time the Moving Castle is completed, which is about a month later, his weapon color should be almost hardened.
By then, even if all their goals in the West Sea are accomplished, they can directly use the moving castle to climb the Upside Down Mountain and enter the Grand Line to start a new adventure.

While Aoun was thinking about their next travel plan, Qingjiao was also obsessed with the eight punch variant of Aoun's nonsense.
The current secret of Bachuquan "Cone Dragon Cone Nail" is just to concentrate the power of Bachiquan at one point and burst out all the power at the moment of contact with the enemy to strike from the outside to the inside.
But the brand new way of exerting force described by Orn is obviously more advanced than the Cone Nail.
Concentrate the vibrating force of the Eight-Punch Fist on one point and drive it into the enemy's body like a nail, and then detonate it instantly, causing the impact to severely damage the opponent from the inside out... What a genius idea this is.
Almost the moment he heard about this technique, Qingjiao was convinced that this was definitely something that could surpass Triatopsaurus's cone nails, and would be enough for future generations to delve into the ultimate secret of their lives!
"Cai, did you hear clearly the techniques Aoun just described?"
After sighing, Qingjiao glared dissatisfied at Lao Cai, who was still in a daze:
"Grandpa is already old, and I am afraid it will be difficult for him to understand the secret of this technique in his lifetime, but you are still very young, and you still have a lot of time to study this technique.
I am sure that if you can master such a secret, you will become the most outstanding one in the history! "
"Which one of the pillars of the past... is the most outstanding?!"
Lao Cai muttered these words blankly, his eyes becoming brighter and brighter to the naked eye.
In the end, he simply stepped forward and slapped his chest loudly:
"Don't worry, Grandpa, I swear, I will definitely master this secret that is stronger than Triatopsaurus's nails... But, what is a better name for this new secret?"
"Is this..." Qingjiao thought for a long time but couldn't think of a suitable name, so she looked at Ornn expectantly:
"As the creator of this secret technique, it's really up to you, Orn, to name this secret technique!"
Aoun couldn't help being stunned when he heard this. To be honest, he just made it up casually. He didn't expect that Qingjiao and Lao Cai would be so serious about identifying it as the highest secret of Ba Chongquan.
However, when he thought about it again, he felt that the trick he had made up at random was very interesting.
Because, he suddenly realized that this so-called method of first penetrating the enemy's body and then detonating the energy from the enemy's body was the highest level of "internal destruction" that the armed color could achieve?
In other words, if Aoun starts to practice this so-called secret from now on, then when he can practice Armed Color Haki to the "entanglement" state in the future, he will replace the power of the Eighth Chong Fist with Armed Color Haki. Doesn't this mean Have you seamlessly mastered the highest level of internal destruction?
The more he thought about it, the more it made sense, and he began to take it seriously.
After thinking for a moment, he slowly said:
"How about... call it the finishing touch?"
In the original work, Sanji once named one of the variations of Devil's Wind Kick "the finishing touch shot", but from Ornn's point of view, that move did not seem to have anything to do with the finishing touch.
On the contrary, the move I mentioned is more appropriate.
In the first half, the power of the solid eight punches punched into the enemy's body is like drawing a dragon, and the last detonation is the finishing touch, making the power of the "dragon" even higher!
"Wonderful!" Qingjiao and Lao Cai both exclaimed after hearing the name.
At this point, the highest secret of Bachuquan has been officially changed from the cone dragon cone nail to the finishing touch. However, there is obviously still a long way to go before Orn and three people can master this power...
…………
After forging the Frostfire Gauntlets for Yamato, Aoun himself also acquired the skills of the eight punches and the training methods of Armament Haki. This trip to Wano Country can be regarded as a fruitful return.
Calculating the time, it's time to leave the Kingdom of Flowers.
So at the banquet that night, Aoun mentioned the matter of leaving the Kingdom of Flowers.
After hearing this, Buwu and Lao Cai naturally tried their best to persuade them to stay, but Qingjiao was more open-minded:
"Idiot, Aoun is a sea man with great ambitions. How can he stay in our little flower country forever?"
After hearing this, Lao Cai was silent for a long time, then he raised his glass and said to Aoun solemnly:
"You know the phone number of our Babao Navy. If you encounter difficulties in the future, please call us. No matter where we reach out, our Babao Navy will definitely break through the waves!"
Aoun smiled and picked up the wine glass and clinked it with Lao Cai:
"The same goes for you, please contact us if you have any questions."
