One Piece: Rise of an Empire

Near Daxia sea area.

"It's here." Des said with a smile to the people behind him.

Behind Des, stood Hawkeye, Levi, Linlin, Sanji and Zoro.

Levi and Hawkeye nodded. After Hawkeye came to Daxia and saw Levi, his hands were a little itchy. After all, at his level, there are fewer and fewer people who can fight with him. Now that he saw Levi, it would be a pity if he didn't fight.

At this time, Des activated the ability of the devil fruit, a few seeds were sprinkled into the water, and the seeds entered the sea as if they had found their living paradise, and began to grow crazily. After a while, an island was formed.

Zoro and Sanji next to them stared at this incredible thing with their eyes wide open. What a powerful force it is to create an island out of thin air.

Hearing that Hawkeye was going to compete with Levy, Sauron was most interested. Seeing the two top fighters in the world fighting against each other was more enjoyable for him than drinking or eating meat.

At this time, the two jumped into the ground, and the boat on which Des and others were riding also began to distance themselves from the island.

Hawkeye looked at Levi, his falcon-like eyes were full of fighting spirit, and he said to him, "Then let's start."

As soon as the words fell, Hawkeye took out the supreme sword Heidaoye behind him, and Levi also took out the Daxia Dragon Soul, which is also a black sword.

Although the two didn't fight each other, an invisible aura slowly pervaded the entire island. Sauron carefully watched every detail. Today's Sauron is no longer the frog in the well when he first met Hawkeye. Although the two haven't started fighting, he has already felt the gap between him and the two.

Swordsmen's fights used to be gorgeous, but the two didn't have any fancy moves, only the simplest sword moves.But the traces formed by the sword energy around them proved the strength of these two people.

Des saw the battle between the two, and what Des admired most about Hawkeye was that Hawkeye never needed to call out the name of any moves in the battle. He had to call out the moves first to tell others that he was about to make a move.

The battle continued. The knives that Hawkeye and Levi held with one hand had now turned into two hands, and the surrounding sword energy became more and more fierce. Des estimated that the island would soon be unable to withstand the battle between the two of them and shattered. At this moment, the two quickly opened the distance, and they looked at each other. There is nothing it cannot cut.

Hawkeye suddenly withdrew his momentum, and in the eyes of everyone, Hawkeye seemed to wave the black knife in his hand lightly. In an instant, a huge amount of energy burst out from Hawkeye's knife, and the huge slash quickly attacked Levi on the other side.

"Is this the slash of the world's number one swordsman?" Sauron exclaimed from the side. If such a slash was placed on the opposite side, he might die under this knife. He is indeed far from the world's number one position.

And Levi next to him was also not to be outdone, and his aura also skyrocketed. Unlike Levi's face of a natural villain, Levi's aura seemed to soften, and then a slash that was not weaker than Hawkeye was also cut by Levi.

Two powerful slashes slid on the island. The hard trees made by Des were like tofu. There was no way to stop the speed of the slash. The two powerful slashes directly divided the island into two islands.

bump---

The powerful energy generated by the collision of the two slashes divided the island made by Des into several pieces.Both Hawkeye and Levi stood on a small island fragment, which created a foothold for them.

Both were panting to regain their strength.

At this time, the two took back the knives in their hands at the same time, and Levi said to Hawkeye: "Your knife is sharper than before."

"You too."

The two didn't want a life-and-death duel, so they just stopped. Perhaps in the eyes of Zoro and Sanji, the two ended the battle with a draw, which is the limit of the two.

But both Des and Linlin knew that they both had reservations, because this wasn't a death fight, so there was no need to use that life-and-death killing move.

Zoro and Sanji watched the battle with cold sweat behind them. The battle of the top powerhouse stimulated their hearts. Compared with this kind of battle, what they had experienced before seemed to be a small fight. They were also glad that Luffy was able to discover this in advance and gave them two years of practice time. Otherwise, they would not be qualified to challenge the powerhouse of the new world with their current strength.

On the other side, the battle between Tianyi, Xin'er and the Kidd Pirates has reached a fierce stage.

"Damn it!" Kidd watched his crew fall down one by one, even Kira was seriously injured by Xiner.

At this time, Kidd challenged the Emperor of the Sea for the first time. At this time, he really realized the gap between the great pirates of the New World and the Emperor of the Sea. He, who was invincible in the past, had a new understanding of his own strength.

If Aliandes defeated them head-on, then they had no complaints, but they didn't even see Des's face, and they were beaten and fled without even attacking the inland of Great Xia.

Now being fought against by someone of the same period as him, it turned out to be the same.

"hateful!"

Kidd once again withstood Tianyi's slash. Tianyi's strength has surpassed Kidd's imagination.

On the other side, Xin'er in human form knocked Kira into the air again, and Kira spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Is the gap in strength so big? Is this the end?" Kira said unwillingly.

Xin'er looked at Kira and shook her head. It was not the first time she had seen such a situation. Many of the pirates who challenged the Whitebeard Pirates had behaved like this before.

"The first half of the great route is called a paradise by the big pirates in the new world. Do you know why?"

"That's because the first half of the great voyage and the new world are completely in the sky and on the ground. Now your strength is still far behind."

Kira lowered her head unwillingly, Xin'er took out her weapon and planned to end Kira's life, after all, keeping such an enemy would be a disaster.

At this moment, Xin'er suddenly felt that her weapon was controlled by a gravitational force, and she was brought back to Daxia's warship and fell hard on the deck.

At this time, Kidd shouted at everyone: "Retreat with all our strength, we are not their opponents now!!!!"

Then Kidd immediately activated his ability to distance their ship from Daxia's warship, but how could Tianyi let them escape easily, and finally jumped up, directly swung a powerful slash attack at Kidd.

Kidd, who is launching the power of the devil fruit, has no longer cared about defense. At this time, he only has one belief, and that is to retreat!

The powerful magnetic force pushed Daxia's warship directly tens of meters away, and the conscious people of the Kidd Pirates immediately began to sail, preparing to evacuate.

Kidd breathed a sigh of relief after doing this, but the next slash passed across his shoulder, and he felt his left hand and shoulder relax a lot.

Looking back, Kidd's arm and his body fell rapidly, and Kidd also closed his eyes because of the loss of strength.

"Chasing, absolutely can't let them escape, damn it!" Xin'er shouted to Da Xia's navy next to her.

At this time, the marine replied: "His Royal Highness Xiner, the power system on our ship has been destroyed by Kidd's power, and our current speed will definitely not be able to catch up with them."

Xin'er heard Hai Hai's answer, and wanted to say something but was stopped by Tianyi. At this time, Tianyi said to Xin'er: "Forget about my sister, I think this arm is enough for him to remember some things. Let's go back to Daxia to repair the boat first."

"Hmph!" Xin'er turned her head and went directly into the cabin, Tianyi shook her head helplessly, but Xiner's performance also acquiesced to Tianyi's actions.
