Pirate's Swordsman

Led by two cake boats, the Haifeng set off from the port of Nut Island and headed for Cake Island, which is located in the center of the world.

"That woman doesn't seem so hateful."

On the Gale, looking at Armand standing on the deck of the cake boat in front, Ross stroked the sword on his waist and sighed: "Originally, I thought she was going to continue to make things difficult, but I didn't expect that she was willing to admit defeat. It seems At least I haven’t left behind the glory of being a swordsman.”

"After all, we have an invitation letter and Big has spoken. No matter how unhappy the cadres below us are, they will never dare to completely break up with us."

Baby5 is not very old, but she has a clear understanding of these things. She glanced at Ross and started teasing with a smile: "Besides, that's because Sir Xia Nuo is too strong and can conquer the opponent with just one sword. If it were you."

"I definitely can't."

Ross immediately shook his head like a rattle, thought about it carefully, and suddenly said seriously: "But, although I can conquer her with just one sword, I am still far from being able to do it."

"But to be honest, if you want to fight that woman openly, hey, it's not certain who will win."

At this point, his tone suddenly became much more confident, and he straightened his chest, looking full of fighting spirit, which made baby5 squeak, curl his lips and turn his head away, not bothering to talk to him anymore.

Seeing this scene, Xia Nuo behind him smiled slightly, with a rather pleased look on his face.

The Hayate Pirates have always been small in number and have only established two combat divisions. Ross, the captain of the first division, and Daniel, the captain of the second division, both focus on practicing swordsmanship and have already become swordsmen.

He always felt that the two swordsman captains on his ship were good at everything, but they lacked self-confidence. Facing powerful enemies who had been famous for a long time would affect their mentality.

But now it seems that after more than a year of experience in the New World, the two have finally grown and improved not only in terms of strength, but also in terms of character. They are enough to shoulder their responsibilities as the middle-level cadres of the Hayate Pirates. In the future, they can Expect.

Of course, what Ross just said was by no means arrogant. As his captain and swordsman idol, Xia Nuo would take the time to give advice and test this guy's swordsmanship from time to time, and he could be said to be well aware of his growth in strength.

According to the recent test results, Ross's swordsmanship is stronger than Daniel's. If compared with the cadres in the Big Thief Group, although it is far from the generals, it is still on par with Owen Dafu and others. He was almost at the same level, and he really had a good chance of winning against Armand, who was also a swordsman.

After pondering, Xia Nuo's eyes fell on the sea level in the distance again. They had been sailing for a while. Dozens of kilometers away, the outline of Cake Island was already visible in the distance, and the huge cake could even be vaguely seen. castle.

Big, one of the four emperors, is in that castle at the moment.

"Four Emperors?"

He murmured in a low voice, unconsciously stroking the hilt of Arashiri's sword with his right hand, and there was a faint flash of inexplicable meaning in his eyes.

Speaking of which, although Xia Nuo had had a lot of dealings with the Four Emperors except the Red-haired Pirates before, he had only fought or made friends with them as cadres under their command, and had never met the Four Emperors themselves. Meet.

After defeating Katakuri without even using his full strength, only an opponent of the level of the Yonko General could arouse his desire to challenge.

How much stronger is this kind of peak powerhouse who truly stands at the top of the world than himself now?

At this moment, Xia Nuo really wanted to know the answer to this question. Even at this moment, every cell in his body was filled with fighting spirit.

But in the end, his emotions calmed down, and his gaze gradually returned to calm.

"pity"

Xia Nuo glanced at the invitation letter he threw on the table and shook his head with a little regret. He was invited by Katakuri this time and came to the meeting as a party to be roped in to show his goodwill.

In this case, he obviously had no chance of fighting Big.

Meanwhile, Cake Island in the distance.

Since there are still two days before the official start of the tea party, many of the invited guests are taking a leisurely walk along the coast, chatting and watching the new guests arriving at the port led by the cake boat. .

"Hey, the guys who just landed are so powerful. There are more than a hundred people wearing black suits. They are some underground gangster family."

A man with a triangular head who looked a bit like a lizard looked in the direction of the port and let out an exclamation.

"It should be the Guodo family. Since the collapse of the Don Quixote family, they have taken the opportunity to gain a lot of limelight. Now, at least half of the underground arms of the entire Grand Line are flowing out from them."

The person who answered was an old man from the Changshou tribe, who looked about sixty years old. He wore glasses and looked well-informed. After squinting for a while, he recognized the identity of the guest who came ashore.

"No wonder! Look, Master Pokmus has already stepped forward to welcome you."

"I'm so envious. Hey, when we came here, we didn't get this kind of treatment at all." The three-cornered lizard man sighed and said with emotion.

"Yes, yes."

This remark drew echoes from several other guests around, and the words were full of envy.

Their identities were relatively ordinary. When they arrived, no members of the Charlotte family took the initiative to greet them. They were directly taken into the castle by the biscuit soldiers, and they stayed in the hotel to rest.

In comparison, the Guodo family that has just arrived is obviously more prestigious. Lord Pokemus is a real middle-level cadre of the Charlotte family, with a bounty of up to 330 million beli.

"Actually speaking, it's nothing."

Just when several guests showed envious looks, the well-informed old man from the Changshou tribe coughed and said rather conceitedly: "You came later than me. You haven't seen Shi Shi the day before yesterday morning." When Tracy and Umit arrived together, they were even more impressive than they are now, and both Bascardi and Raulin personally led the team and were waiting at the port."

"Festival Queen Stacy"

"King of Shipping Umit"

Several guests looked at each other and couldn't help but gasped: "Aren't these all the legendary emperors of the dark world? They are all here this time."

"Yes, and I heard that the loan shark king Feld and Morgans will come this time. After all, this is the most grand tea party hosted by Lord Lingling in the past ten years."

The old man from the Changshou tribe stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Speaking of it, these are the most terrifying people invited to this tea party. Even the Guodo family is in front of these people. There’s no comparison at all.”

The rest of the people nodded in agreement, obviously in agreement, but at this moment, the door of the Cake Castle in the distance suddenly opened, and a tall figure of more than five meters slowly stepped out surrounded by many soldiers. , after glancing around coldly, he headed towards the port.

"what"

Seeing this familiar figure, many guests were stunned, and even the old man of the long-handed clan showed a look of astonishment:

"Katakuri-sama, isn't he very busy recently? Why are he here?"

"He went towards the port."

The triangular-faced lizard man scratched his head and said curiously: "No way, is he going to come out in person to welcome the Guodo family?"

"How is it possible? It's just the Guoduo family. Lord Pokomus is already very embarrassed if he comes forward, right?"

The old man of the Long Hand clan shook his head repeatedly, denying the lizard man's guess, and then he murmured in confusion: "As for Katakuri-sama, I really didn't expect that, except for the other Yonko pirates, What force can have the face to allow him to take the initiative to welcome him?"
