Pirates: Building a Pirate Family.

"I'm not the kind of stupid beast that would use all his strength to chase a rabbit. Unfortunately, I don't have a smaller knife in my hand right now!"

As he spoke, he easily raised the seemingly inconspicuous knife, but his eyes never left Zoro. There was even a hint of smile in his eyes, as if he was looking at the rookie himself who was ignorant of the world back then.

When Zoro heard this, he gritted his teeth in anger, and his teeth chattered.

He gripped the hilt of the knife tightly with both hands, veins bulging on his arms, and he wished he could cut the arrogant guy in front of him into pieces immediately.

"Don't blame me if you die!"

Zoro roared, and before he finished his words, he rushed towards Mihawk like an arrow.

Mihawk still stood there firmly, motionless, the knife in his hand casually raised in the air.

"Frog in the well, today I will let you see how vast the world outside is!"

He said coldly, his eyes full of disdain and contempt.

Zoro instantly came in front of Mihawk, and his three long swords crossed together, forming an extremely fierce attack, and rushed towards Mihawk with an overwhelming force.

At the same time, he shouted: "Ghost~Slash!"

In an instant, there was a loud "clang" sound, and dazzling sparks burst out from the place where the swords intersected.

Zoro's three swords hit Mihawk's knife hard, but shockingly, Mihawk simply raised the knife in his hand slightly and used the tip of the knife to press against Zoro's blade, which prevented Zoro's fierce attack from moving forward at all.

This sudden scene was completely beyond Sauron's expectations.

He stared with wide eyes at the scene in disbelief, his heart horrified.

"How come... I can't move!"

Zoro muttered to himself, sweat dripping down his forehead.

"How on earth did he do it? It's impossible for anyone to see through this trick! How could such a ridiculous thing happen? No matter what, the gap should never be so big!"

Zoro's heart was like a volcano erupting, the anger burning in his chest and he roared madly.

There was a crisp "crack" sound, and Zoro was hit hard. He involuntarily took dozens of steps back.

However, he did not give in. Instead, he quickly steadied himself, then suddenly raised the blade in his hand and let out a deafening roar: "Such an unreachable distance should not exist in this world!"

Before he finished speaking, Zoro rushed towards Mihawk like an arrow.

For a moment, the knife flashed and the clanging sounds of collisions echoed all around.

Zoro swung the long sword in his hand, one after another, slashing at Mihawk with an extremely fierce momentum.

But what is shocking is that Mihawk seems to be able to handle Zoro's violent attacks with ease.

Every time, he could use the seemingly inconspicuous knife in his hand to accurately catch Zoro's powerful swing, and his body continued to slowly retreat.

At this moment, Mihawk suddenly swung his arm and launched a counterattack casually.

With a loud "clang" sound, Zoro was instantly blown away by a huge force and fell heavily to the ground.

But Zoro was not discouraged at all. He endured the severe pain from his body, gritted his teeth and quickly stood up from the ground.

"There shouldn't be such a huge gap, it definitely shouldn't be this far apart!"

Zoro's eyes were wide open and veins bulged on his forehead. With a roar that resounded through the sky, he once again rushed towards Mihawk without hesitation.

At this moment, the blade in Zoro's hand was as fast as lightning, even leaving clearly visible afterimages in the air.

Unfortunately, even such a fierce attack was still easily blocked by Mihawk.

"I didn't persist in swinging the sword until now just to be fooled by such a little thing!"

Zoro said angrily in his heart.

The long sword tightly held in Zoro's hand seemed to have turned into an extremely ferocious beast, and every swing of it brought with it an overwhelming momentum.

Faced with this fierce attack, Mihawk calmly raised the knife in his hand and accurately blocked the opponent's attack that was like a storm.

He clearly felt the tremendous force coming from the blade. That force was like a surging wave, hitting his arm wave after wave.

"What a fierce sword!"

Mihawk murmured, a hint of surprise in his eyes.

The two sharp blades collided violently, and countless dazzling sparks burst out in an instant, like gorgeous fireworks blooming in the night sky.

Zoro's eyes widened, and with a roar he slashed at Mihawk with all his might.

"I did it so I could defeat you!"

Zoro waved the sword in his hand and shouted in his heart.

At the same time, the promise he made with Kuina kept appearing in his mind - one day, either she or he would become the world's greatest swordsman.

"I must fulfill this promise! Even if it costs anything!"

Zoro gritted his teeth and continued to swing the long sword in his hand despite the fact that his clothes were soaked with sweat.

One step, two steps...Zoro gradually gained the upper hand and forced Mihawk back step by step.

Mihawk stared at the boy in front of him, who was full of fighting spirit and determination, and couldn't help but feel a mixture of emotions.

It is an admiration for the unyielding belief, and also a shock caused by the other party's courageous spirit.

"What kind of heavy past do you carry? Even if you become powerful, what goal do you want to achieve? You are just a weakling who can't resist fate!"

Mihawk sneered and mocked.

However, when he said this, memories of the past came back to him involuntarily.

He thought of his past failures and the woman who had defeated him.

For a moment, the firm belief in his heart began to waver slightly.

But at this moment, Zoro did not retreat, and continued to launch round after round of fierce attacks on Mihawk without hesitation.

Seeing the young man in front of him so persistent and tenacious, Mihawk felt more and more touched deep in his heart.

Finally, he could no longer suppress his emotions and swung the long sword in his hand violently.

With a loud "bang", Zoro flew backwards like a cannonball and fell heavily on the deck dozens of meters away.

His body rubbed against the ground for a distance before slowly stopping.

Zoro jumped up from the ground instantly, kicked his legs hard, and rushed into the air like an arrow.
