Pirate Genius

"oh oh."

Robin nodded in understanding. For her, these things were somewhat understandable, but somewhat incomprehensible. After all, they had not reached that point.However, she has some desire for strength at this time.

After all, she knew from her previous experience that if she had strong strength, she would be able to protect herself better.

"Erica, can you teach me to become stronger?" Robin asked.

Hearing this, Erica looked at Robin, smiled and shook her head. "My strongest skill is swordsmanship, and I'm not suitable to teach you."

"Why? Don't I have any talent for swordsmanship?" Robin asked curiously.

"No." Erica shook her head and explained. "The master said that you are a Devil Fruit user. For Devil Fruit users, the best way to become stronger is to increase their proficiency in the fruit to improve their strength. If I teach you swordsmanship, it will be the same as There is some mismatch between your fruit abilities and your abilities will be wasted."

After all, Robin's abilities are flowers and fruits.

It really doesn't match the swordsmanship.

On the contrary, it is like the replacement fruit of Mio and Lilith, which can be well matched with swordsmanship.

In addition, Robin reads books every day. This is a habit that Robin has developed since childhood and it is impossible to let go. Therefore, if she teaches Robin swordsmanship, she will not have the time at all.

Therefore, the best option for Robin is to focus on improving his Devil Fruit proficiency.

"But I can teach you domineering." Erica said with a smile. "The master said that domineering is a must-have method for the strong in the new world in the second half of the Grand Line, and it is also an ability that must be mastered."

"Really? Thank you." Hearing this, Robin suddenly beamed.

"I'm not very domineering, just don't mind." Erica said with a chuckle.

"Of course not, you are already very powerful to me." Robin shook his little head.

While the two were talking.

on the island.

The battle between Mio and Hawkeye is about to begin.

It can be seen that facing Hawkeye, who will be the world's greatest swordsman in the future, Mio used all his strength. Before the battle began, the momentum on his body suddenly burst out, without any intention of holding back.

The burst of momentum made people like Robin, who were not strong enough, feel oppressed.

"Please advise."

Mio said in a deep voice, and immediately took a step forward, and in an instant he was in front of Hawkeye and slashed out with his sword. "One-sword style! Black Crow!"

The black sword energy bloomed, turned into a sharp slash, and slashed away.

"Strange sword aura." Seeing this, Hawkeye said and raised his eyebrows, but then he waved the black sword, and the green sword aura appeared in the blink of an eye.

Hawkeye raised his sword and easily blocked Mio's slash.

Then he was shocked, distanced himself from Mio, and said. "This is my first time seeing your sword energy. I have never seen black sword energy before. However, your swordsmanship is as you said, very average."

"Even though I know this, it's really sad for you to say it like this." Mio's mouth twitched slightly, her tone helpless.

What an honest person.

"As a swordsman, how can you care about such a thing?" Hawkeye said calmly, and took one step forward, came to Mio, swung the black sword, and struck with one strike.

Clang clang.

Mio raised his hand to block, and the two of them fought with swords. Every time they swung their swords, sparks flew out and the sword light flickered.

Swish.

A slashing attack erupted from Hawkeye, directly cutting a deep gash in the ground. Mio was frightened and quickly dodged.

Immediately afterwards, there was a backhand slash in return.

This was a slash from Mio with all his strength. The slash formed by the condensed black sword energy exuded an inexplicable ferocious aura at this moment, just like a crazy beast roaring and wanting to tear apart everything in front of it.

boom.

Mio's slash was dispelled by Hawkeye's black sword.

Then, the two fought again.

But after a while, when the two separated, Mio started to breathe a little.

Hawkeye had an indifferent look on his face. It was obvious that in terms of physical strength, he was much stronger than Mio.

However, Mio didn't consume too much. If it had been before, he would have been out of breath at this time, but with Hanba, his physical strength has increased a lot, so now he is just panting.

But even so, he still clearly knew the gap between himself and a strong person like Hawkeye.

strength.

And physical fitness.

In terms of strength, he used all his strength, but Hawkeye, although he seemed to be at full strength, still had some reservations.

As for physical fitness, the gap is too big.

Although he did not use the replacement fruit ability, Hawkeye also did not use Haki.

All I can say is that my experience may be too little.

Although he knew in his heart that he lost to Hawkeye, Mio grinned. There was one thing he still had to do before the competition ended.

Taking one step forward, Mio came to Hawkeye, and the two passed by each other with their swords waving.

For a moment, Hawkeye frowned, then relaxed, and nodded inadvertently.

At the same time, he couldn't help but take a deep look at Erica on the boat.

All this happened in an instant.

After a while, the two separated.

Hawkeye held the knife in both hands and said in a deep voice. "Are you ready?"

"Of course, come on." Mio grinned and nodded. "Huh, I've been prepared for it for a long time, I just hope it won't fail."

The last words were whispered softly, and no one heard them.

"Now that you're ready, then..."

Eagle Eye's tone suddenly became sharp, and a murderous intent suddenly burst out. The murderous intent accumulated from the people he had killed over the years since he stepped out of the sea burst out from Eagle Eye without any reservation.

The terrifying murderous intention was felt by everyone on the ship, and Robin even turned pale.

Erica's expression suddenly changed. Did this person want to kill the master?

Thinking like this, Erica suddenly had the idea of ​​rushing towards the island.

Warwick and Lilith, although worried, seemed to have thought of something and stopped on the deck without any thoughts of the past.

next moment.

The hawk-eyed figure disappeared from the spot.

In a breath, he appeared in front of Mio, raised the black knife with both hands, and slashed it down.

"With this knife, I respect you as the captain!"

Swish!

Cut off with a knife.

A deep wound suddenly appeared on Mio's chest, and blood spurted out like spring water and spilled onto the ground.

Seeing this scene, Erica's face suddenly changed and became extremely pale.

Immediately afterwards, a terrifying aura suddenly burst out from Erica's body, and it was so turbulent that the calm sea surface became rough.

"Owner!!"

A voice full of anger and worry sounded from Erica's mouth.

Seeing her master fall to the ground after being slashed with a knife, a more violent aura erupted from Erica's body.

Silver aura surrounds this area, this is... extremely huge overlord-colored domineering energy, shrouding this place.

Under the overlord's domineering aura, even Hawkeye felt a slight impact on his spirit. Although it was not serious, he felt as if something was emerging around him.

After a moment, a flash of astonishment flashed across Hawkeye's eyes...
