One Piece: One Hundred Ghosts at Night

No matter how beautiful the banquet is, it will eventually come to an end, as the old saying goes, “There is no banquet that never ends.”

When the bonfire on the beach gradually burned out, it also announced the end of the party.

When the banquet was over, the villagers followed the old village leader back to their original villages.

And as a group of villagers watched, old and young supported a large group of drunkards, and seemed to be muttering something. After the group of people disappeared into the darkness lively, the first one to act was the Sakura Demon, who seemed to be During this night's banquet, other dancers would break away from the team from time to time when they were tired from dancing and go to the table where food and drinks were placed to have some drinks and eat something to rest. However, Sakura Demon was the only one who was dancing from beginning to end. In the end, she danced by the bonfire, completely enjoying it. Until the end of the banquet, she was still a little unfinished. This can be seen from her pretty face full of regrets, but regrets are regrets, even if she is a monster, she dances continuously Dancing for several hours will make you tired. When you dance, Sakura Demon doesn't feel anything yet, but once you stop, the fatigue will sweep over you.

Just like the current Sakura Demon, the Sakura Demon bowed slightly to Nuliang Liban and others present, and then said,

"Everyone, since the banquet has ended, I will go back to rest. This is really a great banquet."

As soon as the words fell, a breeze blew by, and the Sakura Demon suddenly turned into pink cherry blossom petals. Blown by the breeze, they floated towards the cherry blossom tree at the bow of the ship. Regarding this scene, Aiya and Avika who were present, and even Ansel behaved quite calmly. Apparently, even Ansel, who was the last to board the ship, was used to the fact that the Sakura Demon could turn into a cherry blossom.

As the Sakura Demon exited, Ivica couldn't help but yawned incomprehensibly, waved her hands, and bid farewell to Nuliang and others sleepily.

"Ah, I'm so sleepy. Then I'll go to bed."

"Now that Avika has gone back to sleep, I will also go back and have a rest. Although I am very happy today, I am still a little tired after cooking so much food. Goodbye, Xiao Nuliang."

With Avika's departure, Aiya, who had been busy all day, was followed. You know, even at the banquet, Miss Aiya spent most of the time serving the little ones at the banquet. Children distribute food.

Then, as Aiya and Avika left, there were suddenly only two people left on the beach, Nuliang and Ansi Aier, and a messy beach.

"Um, I'm going to practice sword practice."

After hesitating for a while, Ansel, who had been drinking all night but still seemed to be fine, said "I'm going to practice swordplay" and wanted to leave.

But how could Nuliang let Ans Ayer leave at this time? I don’t know when, Nuliang appeared at the only stairway to board the ship without anyone noticing, looking at him with a "kind" smile. Ans Ayre.

Seeing this, Ans Aier couldn't help but reveal a bad look on his cold face. He turned around and was about to jump on the boat, but saw Nu Liang coming to his side in an instant and pressing his shoulder with his right hand. Then he smiled and said softly,

"If you want to run away, please clean up this place before you rest."

After the words fell, Ans El suddenly felt an invisible aura pressing on him, which made him unable to help but feel a kind of fear in his heart, as if something bad would happen to him if he ran again. Happens the same.

"Yes, Lord Nuliang."

"Well, this is right."

Lying comfortably on the branches of the cherry blossom tree on the Mobis, looking at Ansel packing his things on the beach, Nuliang sighed in his heart, once again, Nuliang made the decision when he was in Twin Gorges. Instead of killing Ansel, he felt lucky for his decision to let him board his ship.

Although the beach looks like a mess, there are actually not many things that need to be cleaned up. They just need to recycle the dinner plates that were taken from the kitchen. The dining table and chairs are just made of temporary trees. Don't worry about it. As for the other leftover food, various animals in nature will naturally help clean it up soon, so even if Ansel was cleaning it up by himself, it only took more than ten minutes. It’s just time.

After cleaning up, Ansel did not rest like the others. Instead, he walked to the bow deck alone, picked up the sailor's sword collected in the morning, and practiced his sword skills by himself.

But all of this was seen in Nu Liang's eyes, watching Ans Air practice his sword skills on his own. In the eyes of others, Ans Air's sword skills were extremely fast and had tricky angles. , but at this time in Nuliang Liban’s eyes,

“Really shabby”

Nu Liang thought, in fact, this was not the first time Nu Liang had seen Ans Ayer's swordsmanship. Perhaps in the eyes of others, Ans Aier's swordsmanship was very powerful, fast, strange, and tricky.

But only in the eyes of Nuliang, who has reached the realm of swordsman, Ans Aier's swordsmanship is extremely crude and has no system at all.

The swordsmanship in Ansel's hands is completely the swordsmanship that Ansel was blindly figuring out by himself.

It can be said that Ans Air has not received systematic swordsmanship training at all. The strength he possesses now is completely supported by Ans Air's own talent, but his talent can only take him so far. Now, Ans Air's power at this time is already the limit that his talent can support. After all, although Ans Air has some talents, he is far from being able to compare with those real monsters.

If nothing else happens, perhaps this is the limit of Ans Aier's power at this time.

Perhaps Ansel himself was vaguely aware of this, so he chose to board Nu Liang's ship and ask Nu Liang for swordsmanship.

Or maybe he just couldn't stand it any longer, so Nora leaned on the branch of the cherry blossom tree, then took out the Yamiki Maru from its sheath on his waist, and then jumped down from the cherry blossom tree.

"Ans Air"

Jumping down from the tree, Nuliang greeted Ansel, who was practicing his sword.

Hearing Nu Liang's voice, Ans Aier, who was practicing his sword, also stopped and looked at Nu Liang,

"Lord Nuliang, I'm sorry, could it be that the sound of my sword practice disturbed your sleep?"

Ans Ayer still had that cold expression, but there was a hint of apology in his blue eyes as he apologized to Nuliang. Ans Aier, who had been on this ship for some days, was not sure about the elusiveness of the young captain in front of him. You have also become accustomed to it. Sometimes, even if this person is by your side, it is difficult to find him as long as he does not want you to find him. Therefore, Ans Aier naturally thought that maybe when Nu Liang was resting nearby, because he The sound of sword practice was heard.

Facing Ans Aier's apology, Nuliang shook his head indifferently, and then said,

"Ans El, do you remember why you got on this ship?"

"Of course I remember, I got on this ship to learn swordsmanship from you."

After hearing Nuliang's words, Ans Aier immediately replied excitedly, and even his face, which had always been indifferent, could not help but show excitement.

"Could it be that, Lord Nuliang, you are willing to teach me swordsmanship?"

After hearing what Ans Aier said, Nuliang paused for a moment, as if he was sorting out his words, and then said,

"Ans Air, you should understand that even if I am willing to teach you my sword skills, you are already completely accustomed to your own fighting style, and have even formed your own fighting style into instinct. If I teach you my sword skills, You, your strength may not only not improve, but may even decline.”

That's right, no matter how rudimentary Ans Aier's swordsmanship is in Nuliang's eyes, and even full of flaws, there is no doubt that the swordsmanship he modified during the battle will be improved by relying on his constant thinking. It completely belongs to Ansel, and has even been completely integrated into his instinct.

At this time, it was almost impossible to correct or even change the direction of Ansel's swordsmanship.

"Is there really no other way, Master Nuliang?"

Ans Air was not surprised when he heard Nu Liang's words. After all, as a great pirate who has been galloping in the South China Sea for many years, he still knew a little about himself. But even so, Ans Air still clenched the sailor sword in his hand unwillingly. , asked rhetorically.

Perhaps he had known Ans Ayer would ask this question for a long time. This time Nuliang did not pause, but quickly gave the answer.

"As far as I know, there are actually two ways."

"any solution"

"First, in fact, if you simply want to reach the top, I would recommend you to take a gamble on eating a Devil Fruit. After all, if you want to reach the pinnacle of power, you are not the only one who can take the path of a swordsman. Walk."

After hearing Nu Liang's first idea, Ans Air immediately denied it. Although Devil Fruits are not common in the world, they are just uncommon. As a big pirate, Ans Air has no idea about Devil Fruits. Naturally, he also knows something about the treasures of the sea. Even under Ansel's sword, there are several dead souls of Devil Fruit users.

But let's not mention the gambling nature of "Devil Fruit", but as far as Ansel is concerned, he wants to reach the top in the name of a swordsman.

Seeing that Ansel rejected his first method, Nuliang scratched his head, reluctantly picked up the Miyaki Maru in his hand, placed it across his neck, and said with a lazy look,

"Then the second way is to continue to be a swordsman and wield the sword in your hand. Even if there are many obstacles in front of you, just cut them off."

"But if you want to cut through many obstacles, even a swordsman needs a famous sword in his hand, and now"

Nu Liang's expression swept away the slackness just now, his eyes were extremely sharp, and his golden eyes shone with golden light under the moonlight.

"Ansel Adolf, let me help you forge a famous sword of your own. A famous sword that can help you cut through the thorns and embark on the path of a swordsman again."

"So, Ansel, use all your strength and use up all your skills to attack me."

After saying that, Nuliang's face returned to the slack expression just now, as if the seriousness just now was a fleeting illusion.

"Afterimage Slash"

Just after Nu Liang finished speaking, Ans Aier followed closely, and a "Afterimage Slash" struck at Nu Liang.

"Oh, that move this morning?"

Looking at Ansiel who was attacking him, Nuliang tilted his head and asked,

However, Ans Aier, who turned into several afterimages in front of Nuliang at this time, did not answer Nuliang's question. Perhaps even Nuliang himself did not know what Ans Aier endured when facing him. What a lot of pressure.

The pressure was so great that I didn’t even dare to be distracted in the slightest.

And it's a masterstroke once it's launched.

"Afterimage Slash" may not be Ansel's strongest move, but it definitely belongs to the category of unique moves.

I saw that one of the several afterimages surrounding Nuliang had launched an attack on Nuliang. The sailor sword in his hand was looking at Nuliang's body, and even brought strong wind pressure in the middle.

But in the face of Ans Aier's blow, Nuliang didn't even hide. He let the knife come, but when the knife came on Nuliang's body, the original afterimage faded instantly.

"It's a boring trick, Ansel. I said, use your best efforts not to do these fearless temptations again."

Seeing the disappearing afterimage, Nuliang scolded impatiently.

"Yes, Lord Nuliang."

Taking a deep breath, holding the sailor sword in his hand tightly, Ansel kicked off one foot and attacked Nuliang again, using the "Afterimage Slash" compared to the last attack.

This time, Ans Aier did not use the other tricks, but completely bullied himself to get close to Nuliang, and then slashed at Nuliang with strong wind pressure.

This time, Nuliang did not wait there motionless. Instead, at the moment when the sailor sword was about to hit Nuliang, he dodged in a strange and extremely expressive way.

After missing the blow, Ans Air did not retreat. He immediately changed his sword style and slashed in the direction of Nuliang. However, it was still in that weird and freehand way, and the slash failed again.

What followed was a cycle again and again. Ans Aier kept attacking Nuliang, but every time, Nuliang could easily dodge at the last moment.

It has to be said that apart from Ans Air's swordsmanship, in terms of sword speed alone, Ans Air is absolutely terrifying. The time gap between one sword and another can be said to be extremely short, but Even so, Ans Aier's extremely fast sword speed still did not hurt Nuliang at all.

Under the moonlight, cherry blossoms are flying, and the young man's long black hair is swaying in the wind, and his figure is like a dream. Around the young man are airtight slashes attacking him, walking freely through the slashes, As if the boy was just a phantom at this time, this is what Nuliang looked like at this time.
