I only want to be a Shichibukai when I have Bengyu

school grounds,

The sword energy is vertical and horizontal, and the cold light is bright.

This is a very 'beautiful' battle. The swordsman has a handsome face and elegant swordsmanship. Even the blood splashing on the ground seems to hide some kind of elusive beauty. Underneath this fascinating beauty , the burgeoning murderous intent is also frightening.

Cavendish is a genius in swordsmanship. He has grasped the hilt of the sword since he was a child and has been with the sword for nearly twenty years. Then he went to sea and experienced hundreds of battles. He traveled from Paradise to the New World, fighting again and again. After hard work, he is not far away from the realm of swordsman.

However,

As early as many years ago, Crosell was already a swordsman. The outcome of this battle was doomed from the beginning. Even Li's personality could not reverse the defeat, and Cavendish did not say that he could enter Li easily. personality status.

Of course, Cavendish has great potential. If he is given a few more years and suffers more in this new world, he will be able to catch up with Crosell. As for surpassing those who are trapped in the realm of the Great Swordsman. Crosell... It's hard to say whether he can do it in this life. It's not easy for a great swordsman to climb up.

There are many masters in the realm of swordsmen in the New World, but the only two active great swordsmen are Hawkeye and Red Hair.

The so-called Great Swordsman means someone who stands at the pinnacle of the world, with power comparable to the Four Emperors and Generals. Many swordsmen will never be able to see the path to the Great Swordsman throughout their lives. , can only be trapped in confusion and unwillingness for a lifetime.

The battle on the field is in full swing, and Cavendish is obviously at a disadvantage. Even though they have the same swordsmanship, different lives and different experiences have created different styles. Cavendish is extremely aggressive. , the extremely strong desire for expression can be said to be visible at a glance.

However, Cavendish's attack did not achieve the desired result. The same swordsmanship in Crosell's hands was like a rose entwined with thorns. Under the gorgeous appearance, there were sharp thorns that pricked the hand. Cavendish Every attack was ineffective, and often resulted in bruises all over the body.

The time between the two of them was neither long nor short.

Crosell only used swordsmanship to fight and did not use his domineering force to bully others, so Cavendish was not defeated at the beginning and the swordsmanship battle lasted for eight minutes.

"Is this all you have?"

Crossell asked aloud while swinging his sword.

Cavendish didn't answer. It wasn't that he didn't want to say it, but that all his energy was focused on fighting, and he couldn't concentrate on responding to Crossell's question. Of course, silence itself was also an answer, and he got this answer. Crosell slowly raised his eyebrows.

it is ready!

This challenge is almost over.

"Beautiful Sword·Water Demon."

Crosell used a sword that was like mercury pouring down the ground, and the all-pervasive sword light shone into Cavendish's eyes.

Lost!

The sudden increase in pain in his body made Cavendish realize the current situation in a daze. He knew how to use the 'Water Demon' sword, so he knew exactly what it would look like if he was hit by this sword. He lost. His body could no longer rely on willpower to hold on, and now he even had no strength to swing the sword. Just not letting go had exhausted his remaining strength.

The most important thing is that his consciousness gradually fell into blur.

but,

He struggled and widened his eyes, looked at Croser who was sheathing his sword across from him, and opened his mouth:

"Next time...I will win."

Then, there was only a "bang" sound, and Cavendish, who had lost consciousness, lay down on the ground of the school ground, holding the Durandal in his hand tightly without letting go.

The shirt that had been stained red by blood was completely torn, revealing the hideous scars on the chest and arms that were like spider webs. Blood spurted out from the large and small wounds like a fountain, slowly flowing to the ground. , forming a frightening pool of blood under his body.

If it weren't for the fact that his chest was still rising and falling slightly, he would have been mistaken for a corpse.

"captain!"

"Captain, are you alive?"

"Where is the doctor? Where is the doctor? Hurry up... come and save people quickly!!!"

The members of the handsome pirate group who were huddled in the corner of the school grounds looked at the fallen Cavendish and immediately exploded. A group of people rushed up to fight for each other. Their ship's doctor directly slid on his knees. A man rushed to Cavendish's side.

As an experienced former emergency doctor, he first checked Cavendish's condition and found that his captain's injuries only looked scary, but were not actually fatal. The reason why he lost consciousness was just due to blood loss. many.

Of course, if the blood loss exceeds the limit, death will occur, and the bleeding must be stopped first.

"Go and help that boy take a look."

Crosell waved his hand and directed a group of medical teams who had appeared on the side of the school field at an unknown time to come forward and work with the ship's doctor of the Handsome Pirates to stop Cavendish's bleeding, transfuse blood, and wait until Cavendish's condition was under control. After sustaining his injuries, he was sent to the hospital.

This challenge has come to an end. Cavendish lay in the hospital for a long time and a night, and became alive and kicking again the next morning. The human vitality in this world is so unreasonable, as long as he is not missing an arm or a broken leg. , After lying in bed for two days, he woke up again as a vigorous and vigorous man.

After his body recovered, Cavendish went to see Crosell again and swore that he didn't need Crosell to be merciful in the next challenge, and that he would definitely snatch the name of the beautiful sword and so on, and then he was Crosell drove away.

The Handsome Pirates stayed on Bikashi Island for more than half a month, mainly busy repairing their broken pirate ship that was about to fall apart. They were chased all the way by Zefa like a dog chasing a rabbit. The pirate ship is badly damaged. If it is not repaired properly, it will probably fall apart if it encounters the storms of the New World once or twice.

During this period, Cavendish wandered many times on the long street outside the palace, but finally failed to muster up the courage to challenge the Black Prince in the palace.

After all, Cavendish is a pirate. No matter what kind of relationship he has with Crosell, as a pirate who landed on Bikahi Island, his every move is monitored by someone. He is outside the palace. The lingering information reached Alvus immediately. Crosell even went to find Elvus once, for fear that Alvus would be angered and leave Cavendish as the successor. The martial nephew with the reputation of Beautiful Sword was beheaded.

He was not sure if his senior brothers had trained better disciples. Anyway, he had taught many students so far, but none of them were as outstanding as Cavendish. In order to prevent the reputation of the beautiful sword from being lost. Sadly, if a talented junior like Cavendish can help, he still has to help.

Of course, Cavendish was just wandering outside the palace before leaving, and what Crosell was worried about did not happen.

After the repairs of the pirate ship were completed, the Handsome Pirates finally bid farewell to this coffee city.

"Beautiful sword..."

Cavendish stood on the pier, looking back at the city behind him and the palace on the hill in the distance. He secretly held Durandal's sword hilt tightly. He lost this time, but he will definitely win next time, "Wait a minute." Go ahead! Sooner or later, the name of [Beautiful Sword] will belong to me."

However, it is only a beautiful sword.

His eyes looked out over the white palace, where the Black Prince sat.

However, he didn't have the courage to challenge it at all. It was not a monster he could touch.

"Captain, it's time to set off, hurry up and get on the ship."

the crew shouted.

"coming."

Cavendish jumped up and boarded the pirate ship. He patted the white horse Faruru affectionately on the head, strode forward, and commanded his companions to start taking action. Driven by the sea breeze, The pirate ship gradually left Bikasi Island behind and followed the guidance of the record pointer to their next destination.

······

"White horse Cavendish, isn't it a pity to let him go like this? Why don't you try to make him stay?"

"not the right time yet."

Elus stood by the window and looked at the scenery outside, "As long as the beautiful sword is still there, White Horse will come back sooner or later, and...Father, I don't lack capable subordinates now. Of course, such a good man Naturally, the more the better, but the current white horse is still too young, and its wildness has not been dissipated much. Instead of forcing it to lower its head, it is better to wait and slowly tame it in the future."

"Al, what you think is very good, but the prerequisite is that you can survive. If you die halfway, you won't get anything." His Majesty the King said.

"Even if you stay, you will die. If you want to become stronger, how can you do it without taking risks?" As for Bengyu, Eleus is not generous enough to provide all his subordinates with this extraordinary power for free. Part of the special case of Sika is because it involves Fire Fist, the child of destiny.

But the bigger reason is that Elus has evil intentions. He wants to see what kind of future Ace and Iska will have...

"Since you are really prepared to confront... that one, you must use all available power to confront such a behemoth. Even if you can make a little more preparation, it will be good." His Majesty the King paused, and said nothing. Say the words World Government directly, but use that to refer to it.

Ever since he failed to dispel Alvus's crazy idea, he no longer tried to persuade Elvus to keep to himself, knowing that Elvus would never be able to spend his whole life dominating his own territory in the Kingdom of Exmundo. , simply change the position directly, and talk about making Elvus as powerful as possible.

White Horse Cavendish,

Ever since he knew that this pirate supernova was related to Crossel, he had been thinking about wooing this supernova over. Unfortunately, Elus didn't have much interest, which made His Majesty the King sigh in anger. I don’t know how many times I have been chanting it back and forth.

Eleus's ears were about to get calluses.

"Father, there is new progress in the laboratory."

In order to prevent this topic from continuing, Elus broke the news that he had just received yesterday.

"Is there any progress in the research on Skadi Island?" Sure enough, upon hearing this, His Majesty the King perked up and looked over immediately.

Although he was the king, he did not interfere with the laboratory on Skadi Island. He only vaguely knew that Caesar, the mad scientist, was doing some amazing research.

"Well, the research on artificial devil fruits is finally coming to fruition. We successfully produced an artificial devil fruit last night, but the production efficiency is not high. Caesar is studying and improving the production technology. The next goal is to improve the artificial devil fruit. output.”

Elus was in a good mood.

After possessing the artificial Devil Fruit, he can choose to sell it in exchange for a large amount of wealth, or he can learn from the beasts and build an army composed entirely of ability users. No matter which way he chooses, he can further strengthen his forces.

"Artificial Devil Fruit..."

His Majesty the King's head is a little dizzy.

It's not that his willpower is not strong enough, but that the impact of this incident on him was too great. He is very clear about what the Devil Fruit means. In this sea, the Devil Fruit is the embodiment of power. Although it is said that Devil Fruits can sell for at least 100 million Berry.

However, in fact, Devil Fruits are often priced but not available. You cannot buy them anytime you want. After more than two hundred years of accumulation in the Kingdom of Exmundo, the palace only has a total of eight Devil Fruits. , and they are all ordinary animal-type devil fruits.

Every time a Devil Fruit appears on the black market, it can basically be sold for more than 300 million.

If it is at an auction, the price will double and rise.

"Actually, it's true, Al, it's true... did you create an artificial devil fruit?" His Majesty the King asked cautiously in disbelief, fearing that Elus would say it next second. "Just kidding".

Fortunately,

Eleus nodded sharply.

"That's right, the artificial Devil Fruit has been created in the laboratory, and Casper personally confirmed it. Of course, because we still need to continue to improve the production technology, in order to prevent this information from spreading, the things are still stored in the laboratory! When the second, third and even more artificial Devil Fruits are created, father, you can see it with your own eyes."

"That's not necessary. It's not like I haven't seen the artificial Devil Fruit in your hand." His Majesty the King shook his head, "Artificial Devil Fruit... I didn't expect that it was actually created, Al. How are you going to use them?”

"Well, maybe... he will learn from the beasts and build an army of ability users, right?"

Elus said not very sure. He rubbed his chin and said while thinking: "It's still a little early to say this now. I'm not sure yet whether the Devil Fruit created by Caesar has any effect. I'll do it after a few more experiments." Let’s see the results.”
