**Chapter 158: Reward Acquired – Mastery of the Three Haki!**
Meanwhile…
Fang Ye stood in the familiar otherworldly space, entirely unaware of the significance the Navy had placed on him after his departure.
The moment Sengoku announced the end of the battle, the timer for Fang Ye’s mission ran out, and he was transported back.
Now, he was awaiting the rewards from the forbidden zone.
“Congratulations! Your exceptional performance in this forbidden zone has altered the course of the Summit War…”
“You have earned the highest-level mission reward!”
“You have received 200 free attribute points, which can be allocated freely!”
“As a bonus for completing the highest-level mission and eliminating a Navy admiral, you are awarded: Conqueror’s Haki, Armament Haki, and Observation Haki!”
As the system’s notifications rang out, three brilliant lights—gold, black, and blue—appeared out of nowhere, enveloping Fang Ye.
When the lights faded, Fang Ye could feel the transformation in his body.
His once intangible willpower was now within his grasp, easily controlled. With a single thought, his arm was instantly cloaked in what seemed like an invisible armor.
**Armament Haki!**
Fang Ye knew its value well. Without Armament Haki, the battle he had just fought might have been far more challenging.
As for the other two types of Haki, this secluded space offered no opportunity for him to test them.
Smiling with excitement, Fang Ye reviewed his newly acquired powers.
Initially, he had hoped for a Devil Fruit that would grant him the ability to fly—something to address his lack of aerial combat capabilities.
But instead, the forbidden zone had rewarded him with the three Haki types, some of the most overpowered abilities in the world of *One Piece*.
What made it even better was that his Haki abilities, much like his innate Flame Talent, would grow stronger as his mental strength increased.
Without hesitation, Fang Ye allocated all 200 of his free attribute points to mental strength.

Testing his new powers, Fang Ye enveloped his left arm in Armament Haki, then threw a serious punch with his right fist.
**Boom!**
A small explosion erupted around him as his punch landed.
“Ouch!”
He winced, shaking his slightly numbed right hand.
“Who knew that combining Armament Haki with my physique could produce such a powerful reaction?”
Even more exciting, Fang Ye recalled the advanced levels of Conqueror’s and Observation Haki.
The pinnacle of Conqueror’s Haki allowed one to manifest the “aura of a king,” capable of more than just intimidation. At its peak, it could exert a physical, overwhelming force on enemies.
Similarly, Observation Haki could reach a level where one could sense another’s thoughts or even influence them. At its most advanced, it could create profound mental resonance, altering an opponent’s values and beliefs.
The combination of these two abilities was terrifying. Fang Ye could potentially shatter an enemy’s spirit or even convert them to his side.
With his new powers, Fang Ye knew he could face Akainu again. Perhaps he wouldn’t one-shot him, but a few more punches would do the trick.
Even better, with his mental strength surpassing 1,000, his flame abilities had also evolved. His flames now burned hotter and more destructively and could even partially transform into an elemental state.
Although he could only elementalize small parts of his body, such as a hand, it was already a terrifying enhancement.

At the entrance to the forbidden zone’s rest area, a crowd had gathered. Many were merchants.
The Fourth Forbidden Zone was famously known as a place where destinies could change.
This reputation stemmed from the possibility of obtaining Devil Fruits capable of altering one’s physique.
Though Devil Fruits had the side effect of making their users unable to swim, their allure remained irresistible.
Merchants, individuals, and even representatives of noble families crowded the area, hoping to buy these rare treasures.
Suddenly, someone in the crowd shouted:
“Look! A golden legend!”
Everyone turned toward the exit, their eyes widening as they saw a brilliant golden light emanating from the entrance.
It was the mark of a top-rated mission being completed!
The crowd fell silent, the tension palpable.
When Fang Ye emerged from the golden light, the silence broke into chaos.
“He’s out!” someone yelled, and the crowd surged forward, many of them merchants.
“Sir, do you have any Devil Fruits to sell? Name your price, I’ll make it worth your while!”
One merchant waved a stack of cash, his desperation palpable.
“Hey, buddy! If you’ve got a Devil Fruit, sell it to me! Name your price—if I can’t pay, I’m not a real dealer!”
Another burly man barged through, flashing a grin.
“Everyone, let’s not fight over this! Sir, how about this—I’ll give you a lifetime discount at my store: 90% off on everything!”
“Cheap! I’ll give you 80% off!” the burly man shot back.
“70%! Take it or leave it!”
“60%!”
“50%! Final offer!”
Two merchants began a heated bidding war, each determined to outdo the other.
A kind passerby patted their shoulders. “You two might want to stop. He’s already gone.”
Startled, the two merchants realized Fang Ye had vanished into the crowd.

Using his incredible agility, Fang Ye quickly slipped away, uninterested in their squabbles.
Glancing at his watch, he noted it was just past 7 p.m.
“Time to head home for dinner.”
With a thoughtful nod, he turned his attention to the Fifth Forbidden Zone. Though said to be less dangerous than the Fourth, Fang Ye knew it wouldn’t be easy.
“I’ll need to prepare well,” he muttered, disappearing into the night.
