One Piece: The Straw Hat Pirates' Max-Level Swordsman

In the vast ocean, there is a legendary place - the Chabaoti Archipelago.

It was a bustling place with people coming and going, and all kinds of strange things happening. But in Xia Qi's tavern, there was a tense and anxious atmosphere.

Luffy and others were anxiously waiting for Ling Tian's return.

In Shaqi's tavern in the Sabaody Archipelago, the atmosphere was heavy and depressing. Luffy paced back and forth in the tavern restlessly, like a beast trapped in a cage.

His steps were heavy and hurried, and every step seemed to tell of his inner worries. His face was full of worry and uneasiness, and his expression was like the sky covered by dark clouds, gloomy and worried.

Luffy was wearing his iconic straw hat. In the dim light, the brim of the hat slightly covered his eyes, but one could still see the eagerness in his eyes through the gap.

Under his hat, his big eyes kept looking towards the door of the tavern, as if Ling Tian would appear from there in the next second.

There was a gleam of anticipation in his eyes, like the twinkling stars in the night sky, longing for the arrival of dawn. He stared at the door tightly, without blinking, for fear of missing any figure that might appear.

"Why hasn't Ling Tian come back yet? Has anything happened to him?" Luffy muttered to himself, his tone filled with anxiety. His voice echoed in the quiet tavern, carrying a deep sense of uneasiness.

His brows were furrowed, and several deep wrinkles appeared on his forehead, as if he was thinking about the worst possible scenario. His hands were clenched into fists, trembling slightly, showing his inner tension.

Sabo looked at Luffy's anxious look, and a feeling of distress welled up in his heart. Sabo stood quietly by the side, his eyes full of concern and worry.

He looked at Luffy's restless figure, as if he saw his former self. He knew the deep friendship between Luffy and Ling Tian, ​​and understood Luffy's mood at the moment.

Sabo's heart was full of contradictions. He hoped that Ling Tian could return safely, but he was also worried that Luffy would do something impulsive because of excessive anxiety.

Sabo walked gently to Luffy's side, his footsteps were very light, as if he was afraid to disturb Luffy's thoughts. He stretched out his hand and gently placed it on Luffy's shoulder, trying to give him some comfort.

"Luffy, don't worry too much. Mr. Lingtian is so powerful, he will be fine." Sabo's voice was gentle and firm, like a spring breeze, bringing a touch of warmth to Luffy.

His eyes were full of encouragement, hoping that Luffy could believe in Ling Tian's ability.

Luffy felt relieved when he heard Sabo's comfort. His tense body relaxed a little, and his frowning brows relaxed a little.

He took a deep breath, as if to expel all the anxiety in his heart. He raised his head and looked at Sabo, with hope in his eyes.

The light was like the first ray of sunlight at dawn. Although weak, it was full of warmth and power. "Yes, Sabo, you are right. Ling Tian will be fine."

Luffy said, with a firm tone in his voice. His voice no longer trembled, but was replaced by a calm and confident one. He believed in Sabo's words and Ling Tian's ability.

He knew that Ling Tian would not be defeated easily and he would definitely return safely.

In the tavern, not only Luffy, but also Whitebeard and Roger were anxiously waiting. The air in the tavern seemed to be frozen, filled with a tense atmosphere.

Whitebeard sat on the chair, his huge body like a towering mountain, giving people a strong sense of oppression. His eyes were deep and majestic, as if he could see through everything in the world.

There was a hint of worry in his eyes, but more of it was determination and expectation. He held a wine glass in his hand, shaking it gently, as if he was thinking about something.

The wine in the glass rippled slightly, reflecting a faint light. Whitebeard's movements were slow and steady, and every shake seemed to be calculating the passage of time.

Roger stood by the window, his figure looking particularly tall in the sunlight. He squinted his eyes slightly and looked into the distance, his deep eyes seemed to contain endless stories.

There was a trace of worry on his face, like a loving father who was worried about his child who was traveling far away. The breeze gently blew through his hair, but it could not blow away the worry in his heart.

"I hope nothing happens to him." Roger whispered, his tone full of concern. His voice was soft but clearly audible in the quiet tavern.

Every word seemed to carry an invisible power, making people feel his inner sincerity. He lowered his head slightly, folded his hands in front of his chest, and fell into deep thought.

He recalled every detail of his acquaintance with Ling Tian, ​​and that brave and resolute figure kept emerging in his mind. Roger knew that Ling Tian had an important mission, and his actions affected the fate of many people.

He prayed silently in his heart, hoping that Ling Tian would return safely and continue their unfinished adventure.

At this moment, the door of the tavern was pushed open. The slight sound seemed particularly loud in this quiet tavern, as if the bell of fate was ringing.

The sound of the door hinge turning was like a low note, slowly flowing in the air. That sound instantly broke the silence of the tavern and made everyone's heart skip a beat.

Everyone who heard the sound turned their heads to look. Their movements were in unison, as if they were being pulled by an invisible thread.

Their eyes were full of anticipation and nervousness, as if they were waiting for a miracle to happen.

Ling Tian walked in slowly from outside. His steps were steady and powerful, and every step seemed to step on everyone's heartstrings.

The sunlight shone through the tavern window onto his body, covering him with a layer of golden light. His figure seemed particularly tall in the sunlight, like an unshakable mountain.

His posture was as straight as a pine tree, emitting a firm and confident aura, and his clothes fluttered gently in the breeze like a flag of victory.

There was a trace of fatigue on his face, but that fatigue could not hide the firm light flashing in his eyes. His eyes were deep and bright, like the brightest stars in the night sky.

The light contained an unyielding will and hope for the future. His face was slightly pale, but the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, revealing a faint smile.

That smile was full of relief and satisfaction, as if he had just completed a great mission.

Ling Tian's appearance instantly filled the entire tavern with life. The originally dull atmosphere was swept away, replaced by a sense of excitement and joy.

The people in the pub seemed to see the dawn of hope, with bright smiles on their faces, and the air seemed to become warmer, filled with a cheerful atmosphere.

Lingtian is like a spring breeze that blows away the haze in people's hearts and brings new vitality and hope.

The moment he saw Ling Tian, ​​Luffy immediately rushed over like an arrow. His speed was extremely fast, like a gust of wind. His figure left a blurry afterimage in the air, making it almost impossible to see his movements.
