One Piece's Strongest Ice Dragon

In this area where time has stopped, no matter how lively the two fight, they can't hurt a straw. What Loya wants Zoro to see is the sea in the distance that has not been stopped.

Once upon a time, the sea around Seymour Zhiji Village was so calm, and the gentle breeze sent the faint salty smell of the sea and the fragrance of green grass into the nostrils.The sun in the sky is not scorching hot, and it shines lazily on people.

But at this moment, the sea has completely changed its appearance

Wide cracks stagnated on the sea surface, and the powerful sword energy separated the water flow, which could not be healed for a long time.The waves are turbulent, spreading outward in layers, but often before it rushes far, the sudden aftermath of the sword energy will tear it apart for ten meters, hundreds of meters, or hundreds of meters. This is the case.

The moment Sauron raised his head, another turquoise sword glow flew past, gouging out a piece of the sea surface, and then disappeared into the sky.

Zoro knew that it was Mihawk's sword energy

But...only Mihawk's sword energy

His master, Koushiro, relied on simple moves to not only break through Mihawk's slashes, but he also didn't have any extra sword energy to spread out from him.

Zoro, who is also a swordsman, knows very well that this kind of diffusion cannot be controlled by the swordsman himself. In a fight of the same level, even if you don't take the initiative to release it, the opponent's sword energy can remove the sharp light from yours. Forced out with the sword

This is the instinct of the sword

Nothing to do with the swordsman

However, now, Mihawk couldn't even force out Koushiro's sword energy and was completely beaten while being hung up.

Loya was also very sad about this. Although Mihawk followed a swordsmanship that focused on slashing, which has a lot of flaws, but with his pair of eagle eyes, the flaws in the past were no longer flaws, otherwise he would not be called such a flaw. "The greatest swordsman in the world"

But after Koushiro broke through the restrictions, he found even the smallest flaws in Mihawk.

He doesn't have Mihawk's eagle eye, which allows him to find the opponent's weaknesses, but his sword can

Mikazuki told Koshiro which part of the opponent is the weakest and which part can defeat the enemy.

In other words, Mihawk is Yang Guo and Linghu Chong, who have become great in their later years, walking the path of breaking skill with force, using the Dugu Nine Swords' broken sword style.

But...there must be a sword to break it.

Koushiro has now transcended the appearance of "sword" and entered a new realm. Loya is not a swordsman and cannot understand that realm.But he knew very well that Mihawk's invincible slashes in the past were completely useless now.

Loya, a layman can find the problem, Mihawk naturally also found it.

But he was not discouraged and continued to fight with every move.Once he sets out on the path of swordsmanship, he will not retreat.No matter how powerful the enemy is, this is true

It's not that he doesn't allow himself to do that, but that he knows he shouldn't do that

Sometimes, rules are not as strong as beliefs, as is the case with Mihawk...

Gradually, Mihawk's arms began to become sore and weak. In the past, he would not feel a little tired when he swung his sword tens of thousands of times, but he began to feel tired in just a few minutes.Every sword of Koshiro hit his weakest point of force, not only uncomfortable, but also made him need to use more strength to make up for it.

Even if he is as determined as Mihawk, he has a strange feeling in his heart at this moment...

It seems...I'm going to lose

defeated

When was the last time you lost?

By the way, the master was still alive at that time.

"You are distracted"

Suddenly, Koushiro's cold gaze fell on Mihawk, and Mikazuki pulled out a shadow, slowly sliding down on him...

嗤

锵

The two figures changed positions in an instant, and Mihawk remained motionless as he slashed with the sword.and plowing four

Lang Ze slowly sheathed the knife, stroked the cold back of the knife with his thumb, and then...

咔

The tandem and sheath came together and made a crisp sound.At the same time, a column of blood spattered from Mihawk's chest, and his whole body suddenly became weak, and he half-knelt on the ground with a thud.

With his eyes half-opened, Mihawk could not see any decay on his face, and his eagle-like eyes were still firm even though they were weak.Then he asked: "What state is this?"

Koshiro frowned and thought for a long time before giving the answer: "I don't know."

"I see"

After saying this, Mihawk couldn't hold on any longer, and fell to the ground with a plop.

So far, Koushiro vs Mihawk, Koushiro... a complete victory

In the distance, Sauron was completely stunned.He had this premonition from the beginning, but when this picture actually appeared, he still felt very... painful.

The dream he was chasing was to be the world's best swordsman... It turned out that this existence had been by his side from the beginning, within his reach.

Although I understand Koushiro's painstaking efforts, after all, without this journey, he may have been trapped in the realm of swordsman for the rest of his life and never made any progress, but... it still hurts.

Master Koushiro, if you are so arrogant, couldn’t you have said it in advance?

......

Three days later, the waking Mihawk didn't talk nonsense, and only left Loya with a sentence of "I will definitely go to the appointment" before turning and leaving.Sauron hesitated for a moment, but chose to follow.

Although Koshiro won and was stronger than Mihawk, the swordsmanship that Mihawk learned was undoubtedly more suitable for him.Step by step to reach today's realm, Sauron knows how to choose.

This is actually the reason why Koushiro has been hiding his strength from him... From the first day Zoro came here, when he took out two wooden swords in the dojo and accidentally performed the standard two-sword style. Koushiro knew that Zoro was not suitable for his Isshin-ryu Kendo.

On the contrary, the slashing swordsmanship left by Antonio Jiu is undoubtedly more suitable for this muscular idiot.

He is a pine and cypress on the green mountain, so let him stay on the green mountain...

Watching Mihawk leave in the coffin boat, Loya blew the tea stem, smiled and said to Koushiro in front of him: "The next time we meet, maybe he has broken through that limit..."

"Yes, he is indeed very strong and talented..." Koushiro nodded and said with emotion: "Jiu has really found a good apprentice."

In response, Loya squinted at him and said helplessly: "This sentence seems a bit inappropriate for someone like you who just defeated him, Mr. the world's greatest swordsman..."

"Mr. Loya really flattered me. I'm afraid I can't make any waves with my strength in front of Your Excellency."

After a battle with Jiu's disciples, Koshiro untied the knot in his heart, and his words were no longer so gentle but he refused to be thousands of miles away.

After a pause, Koushiro asked curiously: "But who is our opponent? Even Mr. Loya, you have to go to such trouble?"

Well...that's not an easy question to answer.

After thinking about it, Loya said solemnly: "...the legendary ancient weapon, the King of Heaven, a terrifying monster who is extremely evil and only has the thought of destroying the world."

"Hiss...King of Heaven"

Koushiro took a breath. The higher he stood, the more he understood the vastness of the world.The power of ancient weapons is definitely not something that an individual can compete with, so I asked...

"How strong is that king..."

"That's a good question." Suddenly, Loya slapped the table and stood up: "One on one, I will definitely die. If you use the strength you showed in the previous battle, it will only take you one or two sword swings."

After hearing this sentence, even if he was as indifferent as Koshiro, the corners of his mouth twitched with black lines all over his face.

By the way, is it really possible to defeat that terrifying monster?
