Traveler in the Pirate World

"Not bad, not bad, haha... but it's not enough, kid!" The Golden Lion laughed out loud. It has to be said that the gap between him and Zoro was huge. While fighting with him, the awakened level of the Float-Float Fruit was also clearing away the annoying masked soldiers around him. The tingling sensation from his brain made him seem extremely excited.

Even though he cannot use Haki, even though the fatal injury to his brain limits most of his physical strength, he is still the king of the sea, he is still the Golden Lion.

Shiki's blond hair moved in the wind, and he swung his sword vertically. A terrifying blade light flashed across. Zoro blocked with his sword, but his knuckles were shattered and a bloody wound was opened. His body retreated uncontrollably, and a large amount of blood spurted out of his mouth. "You are not bad, old man, but I will not lose!"

The muscles in his leg swelled instantly, and his five fingers gripped the ground tightly, stopping his retreating body. He withstood the terrifying sword light and took a step forward, "Ah!" Zoro shouted, and the Shura ghost energy rose around him. The dark green sword light drew a circle around him, shattering Shiki's slash to cut off the sea.

"Haha...you are such a funny kid!" Golden Lion laughed excitedly. He hadn't seen such a genius in many years. He had to say that he now admired the kid in front of him very much.

He took a light step and leaped up. As he twisted his waist, a streak of sword energy slashed out in the air. As his legs flipped, several blade beams slashed out in succession, cutting through the air with a whistling sound. In an instant, he came in front of Zoro, who was a little exhausted due to excessive blood loss.

Zoro raised his sword and met the enemy head-on, recalling the old man's sword over and over again in his mind. In the life-and-death fight, he began to truly absorb what he had memorized during daily training. He was so absorbed in it with his full concentration that he didn't notice that his slashing became smoother and easier.

This made Golden Lion's eyes narrow slightly, and he muttered in his heart, "This kid's progress is a little too fast!"

Taking advantage of the enemy's force does not mean actually borrowing the enemy's force, but going with the flow and using the least amount of force to deflect the opponent's attack or directly hit his weakness. This requires strong observation skills and rich experience.

Somehow, Zoro felt that everything around him had changed. Everything became so clear and visible. Everything seemed to have slowed down, and the knife in his hand became smoother.

The long sword in his hand moved with his body, and the sword beams were much smoother than the previous deliberate attacks. The initially awakened observation Haki allowed him to clearly perceive everything around him. The combination of body and mind enabled him to perform sword techniques without a single pause. At this moment, there was no external thing in Zoro's mind. All that was left in his eyes was the long sword in his hand and the enemy in front of him.

As the long swords collided, the expression of the Golden Lion gradually became solemn. The boy's strength was strangely getting stronger. No, it should be said that he was perfectly controlling his existing strength at a terrifying speed. One sword after another, the power transmitted from his arms became stronger and stronger, and the opponent's swordsmanship became more and more ordinary, more and more natural and harmonious, as if this swordsmanship was born this way.

Although Golden Lion clearly felt that the opponent's strength increase was decreasing, it also meant that when the boy was truly in control of himself, he would be the strongest with the same physical fitness.

Asura ghost energy surged from Zoro's body, and every knife was wrapped with the power in it, and every knife was glowing with dark green light. The ghost energy was constantly compressed on his body surface and constantly returned to his body. Suddenly, his half-disabled left arm moved. Jin Shizi was not wrong. The hand that he had pierced through the bones moved. A long sword that was completely gathered by ghost energy appeared in Zoro's left hand in the blink of an eye. A horizontal slash left a deep bloody wound on Jin Shizi's chest. As a large amount of blood gushed out, Jin Shizi used the Float-Float Fruit with horror in his eyes to instantly move away from Zoro.

"Haha... kid, you win!" Shi Ji had no intention of pestering him any further. He knew that in terms of swordsmanship alone, the young man in front of him had already walked a path that was different from that of this world. Facing such a young man of extraordinary talent, he, the Golden Lion, could afford to lose, just like he had lost to Roger because of the storm that year. He could afford to lose.

"What, you don't want to fight anymore?" Zoro returned from his previous state with an unsatisfied look. Intense pain instantly swept through his body, but he still did not show any expression of pain. He just looked up at the golden lion calmly, with the knife in his hand still firmly held.

“Don’t act like a brat. You are so obsessed with your observation Haki that you probably didn’t realize your physical condition before. But the moment you realized it, you couldn’t continue to fight!” Sheathing the sword, the Golden Lion said nonchalantly while hanging in the air, “But I really won’t fight anymore. I lost in the swordsmanship contest. After so many years, my body has deteriorated badly and my skills have fallen behind. I’ll give you this sword. It would be a waste to keep it!”

After saying that, Golden Lion threw down his sword, turned around and flew away with a big laugh. Since the moment he cut off his legs, the king of the sea was no longer important. Destroying the entire East China Sea was what he wanted most but also did not want to do, because that was Roger's hometown and also the place where Roger was buried.

Zoro looked at the golden lion going away, bent down and picked up the long sword on the ground. Unlike the long swords he had seen before, this blade was more than two fingers wide, the blade was straight and three feet long with a blood groove, and a sharp angle with no curvature was formed between the tip and the blade. The snow-white edge of the blade could faintly see a faint blue.

The handle is black and gilded, and the blade is gilded with a double dragon playing with a pearl. The entire blade is made of an unknown metal and there are no seams at all, as if it were a natural whole.

The scabbard is forged from pure black metal of the same type, with the scabbard mouth carved with gold-plated cloud patterns, and the four guards on the scabbard are also gilded, with either finely carved cloud patterns or inlaid with jade beads. It is different from the long swords that Zoro has held in the past, and it looks extremely gorgeous.

Zoro took a deep look at the direction where the golden lion left. He couldn't deny that he liked this sword. He cut off a ray of red light and sheathed the sword.

Zoro turned and rushed into a room, scaring the navy girl hiding inside. She had been chased by these masked men who suddenly became violent for some unknown reason for a long time, and she encountered a famous pirate like Golden Lion fighting with others, so she hid in the room and dared not show her head. She never thought that the swordsman who had just killed Golden Lion would hide in her room in the blink of an eye. She shrank into the corner and dared not make a sound. However, the large amount of dust falling from her head made her a little dumbfounded.

"Don't... don't try to hit me. I'm very powerful!" The girl said in a panic and without any deterrence. She clenched her fists tightly. She swore that if this guy dared to get close to her, she would beat him... but she couldn't beat him!

Zoro sat back on the ground, spitting out a large mouthful of blood. He glanced at the girl in the corner who was covered in dust because of her excessive movements while hiding. He ignored her, tore off his tattered shirt, revealing his muscular upper body completely stained with blood, and began to tear the clothes in his hands.

"What are you doing? I'm really strong!" The girl was so frightened that her voice started to sob. "Where are you, General, in the Burning Mountain? I'm so scared!" She was shouting in her heart. Her strength was not bad among the colonels, but the other party was the one who fought with the Golden Lion!

Jenny Poole was born timid, but because she admired the navy, she bravely became a famous sailor. People are always contradictory, and Jenny is quite contradictory. This seemingly weak girl is also somewhat famous in the navy, but not only because of her sweet looks, but also because of her morbid and brutal fighting methods.

People in the Navy say that Jenny Poole is really timid, but also very ruthless. Her deceptive appearance is accompanied by an equally deceptive heart. She is a woman who is frighteningly naive.

Zoro ignored Jenny's words and began to bandage himself carefully. It would be very bad if he continued bleeding. He took out some dried meat from the bag and put it in his mouth to replenish his strength.

Lily didn't know what the bag was made of, but it was extremely sturdy and the space inside also brought them a lot of convenience.

While eating, he heard a sound of swallowing saliva in the corner. Zoro turned his head and saw the little girl in the cloak of justice staring at the jerky in his hand, her eyes full of desire.
