Daily life as a writer in the world of pirates

On the other side of Catrea City.

Even after hearing the soothing speech on the radio, mr1's expression remained extremely calm.

mr1: "I underestimated you. Even so, you can't possibly ruin the boss's plan!"

Zoro frowned slightly: "What do you mean?"

Mr1's calm face showed contempt: "Weak people are not qualified to know the truth."

Instead, Zoro raised the corner of his mouth and pulled out three knives: "Really? In this case, I would like to know even more."

After Zoro finished speaking, he quickly ran towards mr1. The demon sword Kitetsu and the good-looking sword Igo Gongyue moved at a speed invisible to the naked eye and quickly connected with mr1's body, making a sound of blade collision. It turns out that MR1's body can actually turn into a blade as hard as steel.

mr1: "I am an esper who ate the Quick Slash Fruit. All parts of my body can turn into blades, so I am invulnerable!"

Zoro was silent, mr1 was right, in the short period of time just now, he did not hurt the opponent at all. If he couldn't break through this layer of defense, he would have no chance of winning.

Zoro's expression became serious. Not only was there no frustration in his eyes, but he was even more ready to move: "I already feel that my body has been trained to its limit. If I want to break through, I must adopt some special methods. I came at the right time!"

Onitsuru and Yukizuru crossed each other in front of their chests, and Wudao blocked each other's retreat with one word - "Three-sword style - Oni Slash!"

The impact, like a fire|arrow|cannon, directly knocked mr1 dozens of meters away, making a big hole in the dry ground. However, the dust fell and mr1 stood up again, unscathed.

"It seems that this level of slashing is still not enough. What about the enhanced version? - Three-sword style·Beautiful Demon·Sleepless Night·Ghost Slash!"

"My strength seems to be a bit lacking. Try this - three sword styles, one strong force, two strong force, and two strong force slash!"

Zoro and MR1 were the most noisy. The wind and sand raised by the continuous powerful sword moves completely enveloped the two of them, and the specific situation could not be seen from the outside.

Ms. silently stepped back with her fingers, keeping the wind and sand away from her pipe.

"Hey, since the two of them have started fighting, then my opponent is you." MS stood aside with her fingers relaxed and greeted Chopper.

"Hiss—" Chopper took a sharp breath, subconsciously jumped back, and looked at Ms.'s fingers warily. However, even though such an action was done by such a small person, he always felt that there was no threat, only cuteness.

MS laughed wildly with both hands: "Don't be nervous~ Although my principle of action is to deal with the weak ones first, I will not take action against pets."

Chopper retorted angrily: "I'm not a pet, I'm a doctor!"

"Well, it doesn't matter. But your partner will definitely not be able to defeat MR1, so when the battle is over, I can consider asking MR1 to let you go." Ms said with two fingers.

It seemed that MS was not planning to take action for the time being. Chopper breathed a sigh of relief, but still did not give up his vigilance and stared at Zoro with the corner of his eyes.

The fighting in the smoke and dust temporarily stopped. The continuous sword skills were also a burden on Sauron's physical strength. Sauron stood there and quietly adjusted his breathing. On the other side, mr1's clothes were not messy at all and he looked relaxed.

mr1 told the truth calmly: "If you can't cut the iron, no matter how hard you try, your attack will be completely useless against me."

"Ah - I know." Zoro showed a provocative smile, "Thank you also, I seem to have felt the limit of breakthrough. If you don't mind, you can put a little more pressure."

A flash of displeasure flashed across mr1's eyes: "A tough-talking guy."

After mr1 finished speaking, he took the initiative to attack for the first time: "Foaming Daisy Slash!"

MR1's palms and fingers completely turned into blades. These blades rotated rapidly, like open daisies, and rushed towards Sauron. The wind-driven slashes caused by the rapid rotation of his hands also rushed towards Sauron.

If Sauron fails to catch it, the spiral blade will directly enter his body. If he catches it, the strong wind of the rotating blade will also cut Sauron's skin. This blow, whether Sauron takes it or not, will cause him huge damage.

And the word "retreat" has never been found in Sauron's dictionary. Knowing that he cannot do something but doing it is the reason why he keeps making breakthroughs.

"Three-sword style - Tiger Hunt!" The sword energy with the same wind force was emitted from Zoro's angle, directly confronting MR1 head-on.

As expected, although Zoro blocked the blade transformed from MR1's body, the strong wind formed by the blade still cut Zoro's clothes, causing him serious injuries. Sauron's same sword energy fell on MR1, but it did not cause any damage.

The accumulated wounds caused by many fights made Zoro's blood loss unknowingly reach a dangerous level. Zoro forced himself to overcome the waves of weakness and stood firmly on the spot.

mr1 sneered: "It turns out that Roronoa Zoro, who defeated hundreds of bounty hunters on Whiskey Peak, was just like that. Sure enough, it would be boring if his opponent was a swordsman."

MR1's words had no impact on Zoro. Zoro closed his eyes and clearly felt that he had touched the invisible bottleneck, but what was he missing? Zoro felt that he was in a very mysterious state at this time.

[He seemed to have returned to his childhood, when the master stood in the corner of the courtyard with his hands folded and watched him wield the bamboo sword vigorously.

The master said: Zoro, what do you think the most powerful swordsman looks like?

Sauron's answer at the time was: Of course the most powerful swordsman is the one who can cut off everything in the world!

However, the master smiled and did not express his position, and asked Zoro to take out the real sword in the room. It was an extremely sharp sword, even a child could easily cut through stones with it. However, the master swung his sword hard against the big tree in the yard, but not even a leaf was broken.

The master looked at Zoro with a gentle smile: If it is just to defeat the enemy, it is your battle alone, and one person's power is limited; but when you are trying to protect what you want to protect, the blade is pointed outward. Your sword is the strongest sword, you can cut anything you want to cut.

The master turned back and asked Sauron: Do you understand?

The cherry blossoms in the courtyard are falling leisurely, the crisp chirping of birds, the chirping of summer cicadas, and the master's breathing seem to be clearly audible at this moment. Zoro stopped swinging his sword and stared blankly at his master, shaking his head.

The master sighed: If you don’t understand, remember it first. 】

mr1 turned and left: "Ever since I got the Quick Slash Fruit, no swordsman can defeat me. What a pity, Roronoa Zoro is no exception."

"Hey, I haven't announced the end of this battle yet!" Sauron suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes filled with an unwavering belief in victory.

Protect what you want to protect? If guarding the promise counts - he once promised Luffy that he would never lose again! !

It's just the power to cut through steel. He already has such potential.

"Santo-ryu—Crab Claw!"

Yukigashiro, Wado Ichimonji and the third generation of Kitetsu. The three swords are at an angle parallel to the ground. The famous swords that cross horizontally look like giant crab claws for catching prey. It is better to have no blades in the hand than to have one. First Passed through mr1's skin for the first time.

mr1: "You are indeed a powerful swordsman if you can hurt me, but that's the end of it!"

Several arc-shaped scimitars rose up from mr1's forearm. These scimitars rotated at high speed with the forearm as the center of the circle, like electric augers. mr1 brought his arms together and stabbed towards Sauron. In an instant - a huge The force was such that the three knives were knocked away without any resistance. The rotating arms continued to attack the soft abdomen, and blood flowed to the sky in an instant!

From top to bottom, no part of Zoro's skin was intact. The huge amount of blood loss made him look like he was fished out of a pool of blood. Zoro put his hands on the ground hard and tried to stand up, but failed. After failing again and again, I lost all the strength to even stand up.

mr1: "I admire your will for being able to persevere until now. But, please go die -"

"Destroying Slash!"

MR1 was condescending, crossed his hands in front of his chest, and slashed hard at Sauron who was lying on the ground. The strong wind brought by the blade passed through Sauron's body and split the dry ground into mesh-like grids.

"Pfft -" Zoro spat out a large mouthful of blood again, "I feel like I have been bleeding today."

The sky is so blue, Zoro thought as he lay on the ground.

"Zoron, please send Vivi to Catrea safely. I'm going to beat up Crocodile!"

"I'm going to watch Luffy and find someone by the way. I'll leave everything to you, Zoro~"

"Stinky seaweed head, why isn't Naomi-san's first choice me?!"

"Zoron, you must end the battle quickly and resolutely~ We will definitely hold on until you come over——"

"Zoro, although I can defeat them, but you have to come over and see my heroic appearance!"

"Hey - Zoro, you lost a lot of blood, did you hear me? What should I do? Zoro is unconscious. We need to transfuse blood as soon as possible! Where are the tools for blood transfusion?! The reindeer can give it! People need blood transfusions? Damn it, I don’t know Sauron’s blood type yet!! Woohoo—Zoron, don’t die—”

It’s everyone’s voice. So is this the revolving door before death? Chopper is so noisy - what will Chopper do if I die? There's also Luffy, Nami, Maruko, Usopp, and Curly Eyebrow. Is everyone okay?

"Chopper, don't press on me." The magnetic and gentle voice was conveyed to Chopper as his chest vibrated.

Chopper suddenly opened his eyes wide, and the tears that he could hold back suddenly burst out: "That's great, Zoro, Zoro, you're awake, wow—"

After a short rest, Zoro regained a little strength and slowly stood up while supporting Chopper.

Mr. 1, who had already left a few steps away, turned around when he heard the sound. For the first time, his calm face showed obvious shock: "What kind of tenacious vitality is this? After bleeding so much, he can still stand up."

Even MS, who was watching the battle, put her fingers and the pipe in her hand aside unconsciously, looking at the man in front of her covered in blood in shock.

"Hu-hu-"

Zoro closed his eyes tightly and breathed heavily. But he has never heard it so clearly as now, not his own breathing, but the sound of flying sand, the worried sound of Ming Dao, the sound of heart beating, and the sound of blood flowing. Everything around him has his own sound. Voices rushed to appear in his mind.

Zoro remembered what Maruko had always said about the perception that no one could feel, and what Maruko once said about Hawkeye being the only one who discovered her perception and fought back. Is this how Maruko felt? Is this the world that the world's greatest swordsman hears?

Could it be that the power that can cut off everything is to feel these sounds?

Zoro swung his sword towards the flying sand, but the flying trajectory of the sand did not change at all. Zoro drew his sword towards the ground again, and with a single strike, a huge gap opened in the ground.

A smile appeared on Zoro's lips, and his expression became calm. When everything suddenly dawned on him, he had already anticipated the outcome of this battle. Zoro looked at MR1 across from him and put the only sword in his hand behind his back.

“It is a sword that flows through Iihe—the lion sings!”

Iai - is a killing move caused by quickly drawing the sword, and it is also the most basic move for a swordsman.

The breeze blew up the fine sand, and Zoro and MR1 exchanged their positions. The sword is not unsheathed? No, the sword is unsheathed. It's just because the speed of drawing and retracting the sword is so fast that it seems like there is no change.

MR1's body leaned back at an unreasonable angle, and a large amount of blood suddenly burst out from his chest, and then he collapsed to the ground.

"Thank you for allowing me to see a broader world." Zoro said softly, "I can still become stronger - Motor Motor Dadane!"

Outside Catrea City: mr1 vs Sauron, the winner - Sauron.
