"We can stop the rebel army outside the city and then confront them." Vivi voiced her view while maintaining her typical hero complex. She left the country just to save her country and her family and now since it was time to step up, she was the first person to stand out and help.
"That's a nice idea but there will be thousands of them." said Zoro.
"Then we will fight those thousand men." declared Luffy.
"Well that's not a bad idea, I can take 500 men alone.." Sanji expressed his certainty.
Zoro grinned at Sanji and declared, "I can handle 600 men by myself."
"Oh, I can handle 800 guys."
"I can handle a thousand men."
"I can take 2000 men.."
"What? You want to fight marimo-head..?"
"Let's take it out curly eyebrows..."
When Nami witnessed their loud claims, she came over and struck both of them in the head. While it is true that each of these two men has the strength to defeat a thousand opponents, Luffy and Ken also possessed enormous promise and power. However, they weren't there to cause them anguish or suffering. They would be there to identify the two CP operatives and eliminate them with less suffering.
"So what do you want to do?" Nami enquired. Vivi didn't intend for them to fight, even though she did advise going up to them and confronting them. She intended for them to go and make every effort to halt these charging insurgents.
"Vivi is right. We can take fight them out in the desert." Vivi's words were clear to Luffy in her own manner.
"Luffy, I didn't mean it that way." Vivi trembled in dread that Luffy would inflict too much harm on the rebels.
"But that is the only way." Ken replied as he remembered the time when Vivi went out and shouted to stop the rebel army, but nobody listened. He could wager that the incident would repeat itself. Therefore, shouting at the rebel troops was useless. For this reason, the palace was preparing for a fight and didn't believe they would back down in the face of some hollering.

"Yosh. We will fight them until those agents show themselves." Luffy had made up his mind.
"Luffy.." Vivi wished to stop, but Ken stopped her for doing so.
"Vivi, it's pointless to try to halt him, and do you really believe that so many people will hear your calls?" Ken queried.
"I can build enormous amplifiers that will enable them to hear me more clearly and loudly." said Vivi.
"You can but do the CP agents wouldn't allow Koza and his rebels to hear your words." Ken emphasised. Hearing that made Vivi dejected.
"Luffy and Zoro It's time for you both to begin a different kind of exercise." Ken uttered.
"Another instruction? Like going to a new world again?" Luffy inquired out of excitement. Ken said while shaking his head.
No, you and Zoro should both learn how to use Conqueror's Haki since you both possess it.
Zoro and Luffy were perplexed. Though Ken had once explained them and in fact both of them had started to learn Haki including Sanji but none of them had an idea of how to use it or never knew if they had it.
"Do I really possess Conqueror's Haki?" Zoro inquired, still a little taken aback.
"Of course, or else how would you even think of defeating Mihawk." Ken uttered.
"Ken, do I not have it? Do I not have Conqueror's Haki, please, tell me?" Sanji inquired after becoming agitated.
"I'm not sure. Perhaps you do. Perhaps you don't." Ken gave a hazy response because he was unsure if Sanji possessed the Conqueror's Haki. Zoro had already demonstrated this ability in Wano, but Sanji never did. In addition, it was thanks to Zoro's Conqueror's Haki that he was able to survive the assault by Kaido and Big Mom.
Otherwise, he would have perished in just that assault. Zoro grinned when he realised Sanji might not possess the Conqueror's Haki. Sanji's visage fell when he heard it because he had no intention of being defeated by marimo. He promised that he would try to learn Conqueror's Haki even if this wasn't possible if he wasn't born with it.
Sanji, Zoro, and Luffy were led by Ken to a vacant area close to the castle. Ken wanted to see if these two men could attempt to activate this skill even though he had no idea how it was done. Even the most basic version would be very beneficial.
Ken continued by defining Conqueror's Haki and outlining its significance to their journey. This was the thing that would separate them from the rest of the people in this world and they would have to master it no matter what. Of course, both of them continued to be perplexed even after explanation. They knew the principle, but they weren't sure how to put it into practise. Ken made an effort to simplify things for them as much as he could. In reality, Ken was attempting to determine whether he possessed the Conqueror's Haki himself. He would adore getting one.
This strange instruction then began. For both of them to exercise with, some animals were brought to the field. In actuality, Sanji also enrolled in the skill training and began focusing on Ken's remarks.
"Won't you practise the Conqueror's haki?" Zoro questioned as he observed Ken guiding them before departing.
"I'm unsure if I possess it. Since I learned about it, I've been attempting, but so far without success." Ken answered in a slightly dejected manner.
"No need to fear, brother. You undoubtedly possess it. We brothers are the best in the world." Ken received some reassurance from Luffy, who rarely used flattering language.
